At this moment, Curitios only had endless admiration for the Chinese emperor who sat at the top.

Even we in Rome know that we use lead water pipes......

This is a miracle that cannot be confirmed for Curitios!

And the extent of the Romans' obsession with gods and religion is beyond doubt!

"Your Majesty has no fault with your Majesty...... Curitios prostrated hopefully: "I beg Your Majesty to benefit the distant country and relieve the calamity of our country......"

"The Roman Republic will surely be grateful for Your Majesty's great kindness!"

"Lead poison ......" Liu Che stood up and told him: "There is no cure for ......"

"This problem is impossible to solve except to ban and dismantle all lead water pipes in your country......"

Not to mention now, even after 2,000 years, it is probably not a simple matter to eliminate lead metal poisoning.

What's more, the Romans used lead to repair water pipes, and a large amount of lead, along with drinking water, entered the human body, and accumulated over the decades, even if the gods descended to earth, I am afraid they would be helpless.

The only way out is probably to quickly dismantle and ban all lead products.

"Therefore, even if the envoy goes to the Mo family to study chemistry, it is probably impossible to have any results......" Liu Che said lightly.

The discipline of chemistry in China is only in its infancy, and it is still in a very primitive period of development.

But even so, this course and the related basic theories and discourses cannot be leaked out in any case.

For a long time in the future, except for those who have Zhuxia's household registration book, anyone else. will not be allowed to be contacted.

Not to mention a Roman!

"In addition, chemistry is a ......secret that our country does not pass on," Liu Che stood up. Said: "Please forgive the envoy for this hardship......

Curitios listened and nodded in despair.

"Even this god-king of the East. There is no way to solve the ...... lead poisoning" Curitios murmured bitterly in his heart: "I'm afraid, even the great Zeus, is the same......"

Even when Liu Che left, he didn't find out.

However, as soon as the Son of Heaven left, the monks and scholars immediately surrounded him.

Poisonous......

That golden place flowing with milk and honey!

Who isn't interested?

…………………………

Liu Che left the Roman envoy and went to the East Palace according to the scheduled itinerary.

In Liu Che's view, defeat the Xiongnu in the Han Dynasty. Until the road to the Western Regions and Central Asia was opened, the Roman had to stay in China obediently.

Therefore, how to deal with him, Liu Che still has to think about it.

"Your Majesty...... The lieutenant of Huaihua County, the governor of the western part of the Andong Prefecture must have an emergency report......"

Not long after getting into the carriage, a eunuch caught up with him to report it.

"Chen Xu?" Liu Che raised his eyebrows and asked people to stop the carriage.

Since Brother Chen Xu went to Huaihua, it feels like a different person.

Chen Chan has already put his mind on Neon.

As for the beard. As an elder brother, he is naturally unwilling to be a queen.

Although it may be that what he has done, in the eyes of others, it seems to be a bit deviant.

According to the Boshi report. He had even built the city defenses of the garrison......

The workers who built the castle were all slaves of Mahan and Mahan.

Anyone else dares to play like this. The next day, the Imperial Doctor's Yamen was able to spray him half to death—without even asking for instructions. Do you want to trade with the vassal kingdom without permission?

But because he is a beard. The son of the Great Han Tangyi, the eldest grandson of the Empress Dowager.

Therefore, even the court lieutenants and the imperial historians, who have never been tolerant of the princes, pretended not to see it this time.

If this is just the case, then Chen Xu may not get too much attention from Liu Che.

After all, his brother had more ideas than he did.

However, what really made Liu Che interested was that this guy, after moving into Chonghua City, his governing place, pulled out a team of 2,000 righteous cavalry within half a month.

Just look at the name.

The so-called righteous obedience has always represented only one group in the Han dynasty - the Hu people who returned to righteousness.

According to Chen Xu's statement, the minister is in Chonghua, summoning the chiefs of the Yidi tribe in all directions, announcing His Majesty's holy grace, Yidi is grateful, kowtowing and worshipping: the ministers are grateful for the holy grace of Mu Wanghua today, and they are willing to be His Majesty's minions......

But in reality, it is past, present and future.

The so-called righteous cavalry is actually quite similar to the foreign army of Gaul chickens in later generations.

Probably wandering nomadic tribes who come for money, rewards, and benefits.

It's just that China has always liked to put on a face, so as not to teach children badly, so it was cheeky and named a mercenary like this Yicong.

Named after the meaning of righteousness and fate.

In the past few decades, the Han dynasty has also recruited dozens of similar cavalry, ranging in number from a few hundred to thousands.

These righteousness from,To this day,Basically, they have also been sinicized.。

For example, the father of the current Dahonglu Gongsun Kunxie also belonged to righteousness at the beginning.

Gongsun Kunxi's own resume also has these two words.

But like Chen Xu, recruiting 2,000 righteous servants at a time is somewhat record-breaking.

This kind of behavior made some people in the DPRK complain, but Liu Che suppressed these criticisms.

Because he knows that the upcoming Han-Hungarian hegemony will fight for manpower and national strength.

And the cavalry, or mercenaries, will play an important role in this.

What's more, if you can spend money, you can buy people who sell their lives, why don't you spend money?

It takes more than three years for a Han cavalryman to be cultivated alone, and he may not need even a second to die in battle.

In history, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing used a lot of so-called righteous obedience.

Facts have also proved that these mercenaries who work hard for money and benefits will be sinicized if they fight.

Like the Foreign Legion of the Gallic chickens.

Although everyone started out just for money and benefits or the original account.

But whatever the reason, the melting pot of the army and the battlefield will eventually complete the task of assimilating the other side.

One is eating Chinese food. Dressed in Chinese clothes and spoken in Chinese. A mercenary under the command of a Chinese officer, his speed of sinicization. It's beyond your imagination.

In history, in Huo Quai's army, there were even a large number of Huns and even Hun nobles!

But in the end, they all became fans of Huo Quzhi's brains under the inspiration of Huo Quzhi.

Of course, the righteous cavalry can only be an auxiliary means, and the number of righteous servants in any Han army. It must not exceed one-third, Liu Che knows this very well.

And what really made Liu Che look up to Chen Xu was the means by which he recruited these Hu people.

Chen Xu did not limit the recruitment of Hu Renyi to tribal leaders and nobles, as the generals of the Han army in the past.

He directly raised a banner in Chonghua City and publicly announced that as long as there are Hu people who come to righteousness, it doesn't matter who they are or what their identities are. If you come to one, you will be given a house, 3,000 yuan for settling-in, 300 acres of land and a slave.

Immediately it was the response to the scene. Not only the warriors of the tribes of the Hao people, but also from all directions, crying and shouting in the mountains and mountains to return to righteousness.

It's the real ban, South Korea. Many also went to join the army.

What's even more exaggerated is that the Xianbei and Wuheng people in the Great Xing'an Mountains and the Little Xing'an Mountains. He also rode on horseback and ran away to righteousness.

In a short period of time. Chen Xu's Guiyi cavalry rose to 2,000 people, and it continued to increase.

This made Liu Che have to sigh that the Chen Xu and Chen brothers are indeed scum and social garbage in Chang'an.

However, such scum and social scum, once their skilled skills and superb means are used on Yidi, then they will become heroes and heroes and pillars of the country.

Why?

Because Chen Xu gave these righteous Hu people, except for the first dozens of people who bought horse bones and fulfilled their promises.

The rest of the defectors are all white.

Chen Xu said it very well.

"I am a relative of the Han family, the son of the Tang Dynasty, the brother of the current queen, how can I bluff you? Don't worry, I promised you that your house and land, as well as slaves and maids will have it, but I am a little nervous for the time being, and I will definitely cash it out in two years! ”

And entered Chonghua, put on a military uniform, entered the army, and in the Han army camp, the righteous servants still want to run? Hehe......

Chen Xu's rogue technique is simply the pinnacle.

And the Hu people who were fooled into the army actually have no good choice.

To tell the truth, Chen Xu's western lieutenant's supply and military salary treatment were also very high in the Han army.

Ordinary non-commissioned soldiers, even auxiliary soldiers, have a monthly salary of more than 100 yuan, in addition to allowances and subsidies of similar amounts.

As for the cavalry, they can receive more than 400 yuan per month on time, and in addition, they are rewarded for patrolling, carrying out tasks, or chasing bandits.

As for the war, it will be a great reward.

Chen Xu did not dare to deduct these, because the salaries of the Han army, even those of the Andong Imperial Protectorate, were all allocated by the Prime Minister's Mansion and distributed to the soldiers by the joint supervision of the Imperial History, Shangshu and Shizhong.

So, in fact, the treatment for the Han army is actually very good.

As for food, during training and combat, they all eat meat, and even in normal times, there is meat.

Compared to the time when they were wandering outside or hungry in their hometowns, they were much stronger.

But this appearance is really ugly enough.

So much so that after many people knew about this matter, they slandered Chen Xu in private and lost the face of their relatives and princes.

Even the Hu people lied, and if they said it themselves, they could eat it back into their stomachs without changing their faces.

Basically, it is unlikely that any noble lords will be willing to have a deep friendship with Chen Xu in the future.

But Liu Che is very optimistic about Chen Xu.

With such a spirit, the future is at least the governor of a colony!

At this moment, hearing that Chen Xu had reported again, Liu Che subconsciously remembered the previous precedent of asking for the recruitment of righteous cavalry, and then using the signboard of the Han army to deceive the kind and simple Hu people.

"This thing isn't going to be brainstorming again, is it?" Liu Che took the thick stack of white paper held by the eunuch, and then looked at it.

After only reading a few pages, Liu Che's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.

"This is the water building......" Liu Che swallowed his saliva and looked at the stack of white paper on him.

On the white paper, it's all drawings.

It is one exaggerated scene after another that people can't believe in it.

On the first page of white paper, a river is depicted babbling downstream.

It was nothing, but the key problem was that there was a small boat in the river, dragging a fishing net, and putting it on, several men dressed as fishermen, one by one, caught the proportional fish of about their height into the cabin.

On both sides of the painting, there are two limerick poems, which at a glance you know are the handwriting of Chen Xu - except for him, probably no one can write such a bad limerick poem.

"Fishing in the Chonghua River is busy, and you catch thousands of stones a day......" Liu Che whispered these exaggerated poems that he was embarrassed to read, and his face was already full of black lines.

And the next one is even more exaggerated.

This painting depicts a harvest scene of a farmland.

That's not the point, the point is that it's a terrifying millet that is a man tall and the size of an adult's arm.

As usual, there is still a narrator: Huaihua has a lot of fertile soil, and one acre produces 50 stones of millet!

Liu Che stuck out his tongue.

There is no doubt that this is the Water Building!

The Han version of the water building.

But is Chen Xu crazy?

Does he think that such a crude method can deceive himself?

Wrong!

Liu Che shook his head.

Although Chen Xu is funny, he is not a fool, even if he wants to deceive himself, he will not use such methods, let alone write some such limericks.

Unless he's looking for death!

Liu Che continued to look at the next one.

If the first two are probably urban abilities, then this one is another continent.

The painting depicts a farmer carrying something, but the point is that the thing is an egg, an egg that is half a human size.

The farmer's vivid painting, and the happy and distressed look on his face, made Liu Che almost believe it...... If that egg wasn't that exaggerated.

Look at the next one, this time it's a rooster that has mutated - the picture shows a rooster pulling a cart of half-human-tall eggs.

Can the rooster pull the cart?

What about cattle and horses?

Are you going to fly?

Seeing this, Liu Che simply flipped to the end.

Sure enough, on the last few blank sheets of paper, words appeared.

Written in the style of a stale beard.

Chen Xu elaborated on the reasons for doing so, and begged Liu Che to approve his implementation of this plan.

After reading it, Liu Che turned to the front again, and when he looked at these exaggerated and exaggerated pictures and limericks, Liu Che couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Bastard, at a young age, I actually learned Uncle Sam's methods......"

If Chen Xu hadn't elaborated on his motives, Liu Che wouldn't have thought of this.

But when Chen Xu finished talking about his motives, Liu Che suddenly remembered an interesting anecdote he had seen.

Uncle Sam has played a similar trick in history.

In any case, the left and right are cheating, coaxing, and fooling, and a large number of people are deceived into the western states to contribute to local construction.

The method is similar to Chen Xu's current leaflets.

Anyway, it's just how to exaggerate.

The countless Midi people who fooled really thought that the west was a paradise, that they would have food and clothing in the west, and that they could make a fortune in the west.

As a result, when they arrived at the local area, everyone found out that they had been fooled, but it was too late! (To be continued.) )

PS: Uncle Sam really played with the water building, there are pictures and truths, the eggs are so high, the corn needs a cart, the big fish in the river, the crops in the crop field, exaggerated and scared people to death......

Compared to this, **** is still too young......
