Chapter 171: Be prepared for danger in times of peace

 Is there anything else that can be improved?

Zhao Yun suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty!" Zhao Yun smiled and said, "I only know how to gallop on the battlefield and defeat enemies. I am not good at this kind of weapon improvement."

"And these improvements made by His Majesty are already very comprehensive."

"Old minister," Zhao Yun sighed: "Old minister, I don't have any better suggestions for your majesty."

This is Zhao Yun's sincere words. If you ask him to lead the troops to charge into battle, he will have many feasible methods, but when it comes to these weapon improvements, he really doesn't understand.

Of course——

Liu Chan didn't really want Zhao Yun to give him advice. If he wanted to ask for advice, he wouldn't come to Zhao Yun. He could go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. In today's Han Dynasty, if it comes to inventions and creations, who can have Mr. Wolong?

What's more powerful?

Don’t forget, in history, Prime Minister Zhuge, after several Northern Expeditions, knew that the road to Shu was difficult and difficult to carry military supplies, so he invented a mythical object that will go down in history - the wooden ox and the flowing horse.

But——

These stirrups, saddles, horseshoes, sabers, and sabers; Liu Chan really doesn’t plan to ask Prime Minister Zhuge now, at least it’s not the time yet, not to mention these things have been proven in practice for thousands of years to come.

Mature weapons.

"Teacher!" Liu Chan said with a smile: "I would like to ask the teacher to train this iron cavalry with me. I wonder what the teacher wants?"

This is the purpose of Liu Chan coming here today.

The purpose of showing Zhao Yun these drawings first is to let him know in advance what weapons and equipment this cavalry will use next.

Zhao Yun is extremely bored.

The emperor suddenly wanted to give him a task, and he naturally accepted it happily: "I am willing to do my best."

"Thank you, teacher!"

Liu Chan was also very happy. After all, with Zhao Yun, a veteran on the battlefield, and his weapons and equipment that were ahead of the times, the cavalry only had 5,000 people.

However, Liu Chan can think freely.

Imagine that this cavalry will be the ace cavalry of the Han Dynasty in the future.

After Zhao Yun accepted this task, Liu Chan gave all the drawings he drew to Zhao Yun and asked him to find someone to build a batch of equipment according to the drawings.

Leave Zhao Mansion.

On the carriage.

"Your Majesty!"

Wang Yuanji was quiet for a while, and finally spoke. She said angrily: "Your Majesty, is there another war going to happen?"

This is Wang Yuanji's doubt, because the emperor of the Han Dynasty is so dedicated to building weapons and equipment, and also trains a brand new cavalry, and based on the weapon blueprints she just saw, once this cavalry is trained, the future combat effectiveness of the Han Dynasty will be as high as

It can definitely be described as terrifying.

As the imperial concubine of a Han Dynasty, she should be happy.

However, she also knows.

The current Han Dynasty, if there is a war, will only go to two places, either go south to the Yangtze River to attack Soochow, or go east to Tongguan to attack Cao Wei.

Just, for now.

Maybe the Han Dynasty will still regard Cao Wei as its number one enemy. Even though the two countries temporarily suspended their troops and ceased war due to their marriage, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just a delaying strategy for both sides.

What if the war between Han and Wei restarted?

Wang Yuanji had to worry, after all, his parents and relatives were still in Luoyang.

But when Liu Chan heard this, he pretended to be confused and said: "Why did my beloved concubine say this?"

"My big Han was originally an ally with Soochow, and now we have reached a peace agreement with Cao Wei," Liu Chan said with a smile: "Liangzhou and the Hetao area are all owned by my Han, so why is there a war?"

Liu Chan naturally said this on purpose.

"But your Majesty," Wang Yuanji said, "Your Majesty is now training troops and horses vigorously and inventing these powerful weapons. Isn't your Majesty preparing for war?"

"Ah???" Liu Chan pretended to be surprised and said: "My beloved concubine thinks that now that the three kingdoms of Han, Wei and Wu are in harmony, I, a big man, should put my swords and guns in the treasury and let my horses go to Nanshan?"

Wang Yuanji was speechless for a moment, because there was nothing wrong with what Liu Chan said.

After all, although the three countries are temporarily at peace, who can guarantee that they will not attack each other in the future? Or will one party take the initiative to provoke a war?

"Be prepared for danger in times of peace." Liu Chan tapped her forehead lightly, rolled his eyes, and said, "I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty. I can promise not to take the initiative to use weapons against Wei and Wu. But I need to do it. If Wei and Wu are against each other,

If I, the Han Dynasty, mobilize my troops, I can defeat them in one fell swoop, thus ensuring the safety of my Han people."

Liu Chan naturally understands this principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace.

Wang Yuanji was not stupid either, so Nuonuo said: "It's my concubine who was abrupt."

"Silly girl!" Liu Chan said with a smile: "I am worried that if I send troops to attack Wei, my family will be affected by the war, right?"

"Yes!" Wang Yuanji nodded affirmatively upon hearing this.

"Don't be afraid;" Liu Chan said with a smile: "If Han and Wei really restart the war, I will also protect my concubine's relatives, because they are also my relatives now."

"Really?"

"Really!" Liu Chan held her in his arms and said, "My beloved concubine is my woman. I will naturally protect my beloved concubine and her relatives."

Wang Yuanji was naturally moved to hear these words from the emperor's mouth.

However, she also knows it very well.

It was only a matter of time before the war between Han and Wei resumed.

For example, while Liu Chan was busy training cavalry, Emperor Wei Cao Rui was not idle either. He seemed even busier than Liu Chan.

After the marriage between Han and Wei, the Wei Dynasty temporarily gained a brief period of peace.

Cao Rui did not waste this rare time.

He first rectified the bureaucracy of the Wei Dynasty, ordered the strict selection of officials at all levels, and dismissed some incompetent people one by one.

Then, he was busy increasing grain production.

He personally went to the countryside to engage in agricultural production in order to encourage the people and at the same time vigorously promote the Han Dynasty's food growing methods.

Improve officialdom and improve agricultural production.

These are all to make Wei become stronger.

However, while he was busy strengthening his national power, a memorial was suddenly sent to Luoyang, which made Cao Rui very upset.

AD 232, July 3rd.

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

"Start your Majesty!"

Situ Dong Zhao went out to report: "Gongsun Yuan, the governor of Liaodong, and Shanyu Kebineng, the Shanyu of Xianbei, conspired against each other and combined 60,000 troops to attack our great Wei Dynasty."

"Ke Bineng?" Cao Rui frowned.

For more than a year, he has been busy rectifying officialdom and promoting agricultural production.

However, he is naturally also very concerned about things in the north.

Half a year ago, the original Xianbei Chanyu Bu Dugen sent Xie Gui Ni to Ke Bineng, and then cooperated with Ke Bineng inside and outside to defeat Bu Dugen. Bu Dugen was killed by Ke Bineng and became the new Xianbei Chanyu.

Kebineng, who became the Chanyu of Xianbei, immediately sent envoys to Luoyang to pay tribute to show his loyalty. Cao Rui was busy rectifying the domestic situation and had no time to deal with Kebineng for the time being, so he accepted Kebineng as the new leader. The Xianbei Chanyu.

But——

This has only been half a year.

Ke Bineng actually raised troops to invade the country?
