Chapter 114: Nangong's Learning

"In the winter, we killed tens of thousands of Huns in Lingwu, and they didn't get much benefit from the two generals Li Guang and Cheng Bu from time to time on the Eastern Front. It should be said that the losses of the Huns were huge, although we captured a lot in Yuyang and Zhuozhou. However, I suspect that the Xiongnu Dadanyu will not take the liberty of launching a new disturbance.

The most likely thing is to return to the Mobei grassland to recuperate, not only this year, but I am afraid that there will be no large-scale disturbance next year. It is no longer the period of Gaozu and Emperor Wen, and the imperial court has made great efforts to build galloping roads in the north. The four-wheeled carriages of the Han army could crisscross the country, which greatly strengthened the mobility of the Han army. The large distribution of crossbow arrows gave the Han army a certain advantage over the Hun cavalry, which were all factors that turned the tide of the battle. Therefore, I don't expect there to be a large-scale spramble anytime soon.

But don't take it lightly, there is no large-scale one. Sporadic looting still exists, after all, the mobility of the Hun cavalry is not comparable to that of the Han army. However, the matter of Ma Yi that you analyzed still has to go to the Taiwei Mansion, Canghu, you will have someone to do it. ”

Yun Xiao pointed to the map and analyzed the current shape of Han and Hun shì.

On the racetrack, a team of black-armored knights crisscrossed the ground. They formed a line and galloped parallel to each other. The sharp saber drew its scabbard, and the scarecrows on both sides were constantly split into two pieces.

This was the first time that the villagers had trained in armor, because the speed of armor production was really limited. I can only find some discomforts for everyone to wear in rotation and familiarize themselves with nail training. The advantage of fish scale armor is that it is versatile, and Zhang Shisan also tried to choose a similar figure when recruiting. This made the sledgehammer a lot easier.

Yun Xiao was secretly glad that he didn't choose full-body plate armor, this kind of furniture with super protection is basically a private custom. Even if the person in the armor grows a little fatter. There is a danger that you will not be able to wear it.

"Hou Ye, now less than half of the recruits have armor, and the rest are still trained in sackcloth. Many of the original training plans have been delayed, and you know that charging in armor and charging in sackcloth are two different things. There is also a saber that is not sufficient, and now only two people can share one. You urged the sledgehammer, and I urged him several times but he didn't pay attention to it. ”

Canghu complained to Yun Xiao with some complaints.

"There's no way to use a sledgehammer, and there's only so many people in the blacksmith's shop. Those apprentices couldn't make armor for a while, so they had to fight. You have the villagers wear helmets and sandbags tied to their bodies. You see, as long as the turbine is installed. The production of the blacksmith shop will be much higher, and the recruits will soon have their own armor. ”

Yun Xiao pointed to the water turbines being assembled in the mountains in the distance.

After months of hard work, a dam was finally built more than 10 feet high. The fisherman was leading Lan Xiang's students to install the huge water turbine day and night. After a series of gears. The kinetic energy of the turbine drives several thrashing machines. Now the sledgehammer is waiting eagerly for the installation of the turbine to be completed, and there is really no way to produce it, and the task is too heavy.

Yun Xiao took his generals to inspect Lintong for three days, but unexpectedly Luan Ling did not send anyone to cry to him. When Yun Xiao returned to the Yun family's mansion, he found that the family was calm. It seems to be much calmer than ever.

Little White was lazily lying in Ellis's room. Injured leopards now have a strong sense of distrust towards humans. Only Ellis and the Wild Bull fed it. It will only eat otherwise who feeds and bites whom. Nearly 200 pounds of leopard bites. That's going to kill you. There are already a few dying guys lying in the medical hall because of teasing Xiaobai. They are all newcomers to Yulin, and they don't know the temper of Uncle Xiaobai. The worst one was bitten off his arm and sent to the hospital. The entire arm is connected by only one piece of skin.

The atmosphere at home is very eerie, and on the surface it is not alarming. But in private, it seems to be an undercurrent. Ellis hid in the house like a kitten and didn't go out, and the goddess took the maid shop to tour the garden. Luan Ling turned her grief and anger into food, and hid in the house and killed a basin of ice cream. I'm on my way to the hospital now.

It seems like everything is right, and it seems like nothing is right. Nangong held Yun Xiao's arm and smiled like a rabbit stealing carrots.

"How did you do it, you can actually make Luan Ling retreat."

Yun Xiao pinched Nangong's face and asked with a smile.

"Quite simply, I'm a princess. My father is the emperor, what is Sister Luan's identity. What kind of family background does she have to compete with this palace. Since you are in the way, the position of the lady cannot be done in this palace. But is she qualified to compete with this palace for the position of the eldest lady?

A woman who cannot please her husband and loses his favor. She was to blame for that. I don't have to fight if I lose, this is what my father taught me. Sometimes it's more important to let your opponent make mistakes on her own than for you to hit her. ”

Nangong smiled like a flower, but his mouth was talking about the most ruthless power technique.

Yun Xiao was stunned for a while, is it the right choice to hand over the family to such a woman who is proficient in power and strategy? Yun Xiao believes that these princesses in the palace are not simply learning to run a house. The royal education must have given her something else, and she had to ask for clarity.

"What exactly did you learn in the palace? The Yun family is not a place for you to play tricks, and Luan Ling has not lost my favor. Don't guess, do your job as a woman. ”

"There are a lot of things to learn in the palace, and the royal princess naturally has many aunts to teach. Scheming is what every woman does, and if a woman is scheming for you, it's because she loves you. However, each has its own skill, and Ellis, who is like a kitten, will not be scheming. Or the lady who is indifferent on the surface will not play tricks.

Luan Ling is just playing too inferior, her inferiority lies in the fact that it is a woman's nature to be jealous, but she can't show it in front of men. ”

"You weren't like this before? How did it come to this? ”

Yun Xiao felt that it was difficult to adapt to Nangong's transformation, where was the simple little girl before, the kind Nangong who was unwilling to step on an ant to death.

"What does Brother Xiao think this palace has been doing in Chengming Hall for a few months? That was when my father instructed Aunt Xi to teach Nangong a lot of things, and the palace didn't want to use it. But seeing Brother Xiao's sorrow yesterday, he couldn't help but use this palace.

Three women in one play, maybe you will have women in the future. But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that no matter how jealous these women are, they can't hurt my brother Xiao. As long as any woman makes my brother Xiao sad, then this palace will not let her go. ”

Yun Xiao was confused, he didn't know whether to praise Nangong or reprimand Nangong. One thing is for sure, Nangong loves herself. But it seems that she doesn't mind that she has other women, how does royal education cultivate such a screwed woman. If Yun Xiao is asked to describe the feeling at this time, it is pain and happiness.

Autumn is a golden season, and the grass all over the mountains gradually withers and turns yellow. There were already geese flying south in the sky, and the swans that were paired in pairs in the water pool also disappeared in pairs.

After the tense installation and commissioning of the fishermen and the trainees, the huge waterwheel truck stood on the mountainside. Despite the limited flow of the mountain stream, the huge drop brings a huge amount of kinetic energy to the turbines.

The sledgehammer danced with joy, and the great power of nature made this man of iron worship beyond measure. The three machines are lined up, and the apprentice simply places the red-hot steel underneath and is automatically forged. I don't know how much the efficiency has improved, anyway, two dozen apprentices work in shifts. It took only three days to make nine swords, and it seemed to be much better than the hand-made.

After the fire was purified, more than a dozen stacks of copper coins were cut in a row without breaking the blade.

"Moment, this machine is really good. With these machines, I promise to deliver the remaining 1,300 sabers before winter. Although the armor will be slower, before the first snow falls, the villagers will definitely have armor to wear. ”

Sledgehammer said excitedly as he looked at the rotating turbine.

"You kid just thinks about you, this thing is a treasure. Put this thing on the Wei River, and you can grind wheat. With this kind of motivation in the factory, the output can also be greatly increased. Now our factory has to work in shifts every day, but it still can't meet the supply of Chang'an City.

With the water wheel, I dare not say that the output of the tofu factory can be several times more. The price of tofu in Chang'an City is probably going to drop dramatically. ”

The old fisherman wiped his beard and slapped the sledgehammer. The wrinkles on the old man's face were about to burst into laughter, and after a lifetime of tinkering with machinery, there was finally something that could exert great power without the help of human power. In front of this thing, things such as the previous watermills and windmills have all exploded and become obsolete products.

"The fisherman also fell into the same place, with this reservoir. In the dry season, Yunjia Zhuangzi can also have water for irrigation, and other families don't care. At least our people in Lintong can still have a full bite to eat. ”

Yun Xiao pointed to the ocean below, a reservoir more than a dozen stories high, and it was still rich to store water to irrigate a Zhuangzi. In the year of the Han Dynasty, no matter how you say it, the people of Lintong will be starved and displaced.

A group of people were laughing, but they saw the goshawk rushing over. It seems that something urgent has happened, otherwise this cargo would not have run away as if it had been chased by a wolf.

"Hou ...... Master Hou, my eldest brother is here to deliver the decree. It is said that you will face the saint in Chang'an tomorrow. ”

The goshawk breathlessly reported to Yun Xiao.

"Didn't the old man say what was the matter?"

Yun Xiao had the most headache to see Liu Qi, who was becoming more and more difficult to figure out, and this guy's temper was getting worse and worse. There have been several ministers who have been unlucky, and Yun Xiao can now hide. Chaohui couldn't see his shadow at all.

"My eldest brother said that Donghu's envoy has arrived. Want...... I want to take Princess Nangong away to complete the marriage. ”

"What......" (To be continued......
