Beiji County Luepan Road is located in the heart of the most central city in Beiji County. It is connected in all directions and has convenient transportation.

Moreover, this place is rich in iron ore and is a very good place for mining and refining.

After Zeng Yu took Beidi County into his hands, the workshop of Huce Mansion was moved here from Chengji Yema Mountain.

It is not only convenient for the management and refining of ordnance, but also for the transportation of ordnance.

In order to facilitate the policy to favor the workshops, Zeng Yu gave the local county magistrate to the workshop owner Li Tianchang.

Extraordinary times call for extraordinary things. The theme of the internal affairs here is to refine, build, and create a steady stream of ordnance for the Huce Mansion.

Even the county seat here has been transformed into a large smelting workshop. In order to maintain the safety of this place, the entire county has built more fortresses than Lian County, almost as many as Chengji. Each township has built a

Some small fortresses were built in all the fortresses and even in the villages. The fortresses were staggered and blocked, and there were heavy troops stationed there. This place was the top priority of Hu Ce Mansion and must not be missed.

The weather today is not very good, it is very foggy. Especially the large chimneys that are constantly emitting smoke in the county seat make the weather today extremely bad.

In this kind of weather, the streets and alleys in the county were actually filled with people. Everyone in the crowd was holding flowers and looking up, as if someone big was coming.

"How is the production this year?" Zeng Yu strolled on the outskirts of the city. Accompanying him were Li Tianchang, the owner of the workshop and the county magistrate, and Tian Buwei, the president of the Government and Business Association. Both of them are responsible for refining, transportation, and sales.

Boss, with their company, Zeng Yu can have a general understanding of the operation of the workshop.

Behind and around were strong men wearing fine armor and holding sharp knives, walking around and patrolling to ensure Zeng Yu's safety.

"My lord, depending on the situation, it should be three to four times more than what it was at Wild Horse Mountain." As Zeng Yu's prestige grew stronger, Li Tianchang was cautious when he spoke. The lord in front of him was no longer as good as before.

The lord of a county in Liangzhou!

"The output has gone up, but I see that your quality has not." Zeng Yu glanced at Li Tianchang lightly, which made Li Tianchang sweat in his heart, but he didn't know what he did wrong.

"Tian Buwei, please give Mr. Li a good talk!" Zeng Yu walked to the river, squatted down, and squinted at the operation of the rolling waterwheel.

When you come to inspect this city of workshops, you must first take a look at the surrounding environment and atmosphere. As for the workshops in the city, whether you want to see them or not is the next best thing.

Well, as for this waterwheel, although it has nothing to do with the construction of Zhi Lian, Zeng Yu is just used to looking at the same object to think about problems.

He has already walked around the villages and towns in this county, and generally speaking, it's not bad.

Each workshop is divided very finely. Those who make harnesses are only responsible for harnesses, those who make armors are only responsible for armors, those who make weapons are only responsible for weapons, those who make shields are only responsible for shields, and so on.

I observed many workshops along the way, and they were all operating in an orderly manner. Generally speaking, I was quite satisfied. However, the research and development of new weapons was still a bit lacking. Although there is no hope for hot weapons, some convenient and simple new weapons should be made, such as

Lighter and safer armor, large ballistas for sieges, and catapults should be on the agenda.

Here, Tian Buwei and Li Tianchang said: "Master Li, the gun barrels of the last batch of goods are easy to break! I hope this will not happen next time. You must know that all the spearmen in our Huce Mansion have been promoted to Qingzhou

Soldiers are more powerful than before, so brittle gun shafts are not suitable. Good hardwood such as pear wood must be used!"

"Moreover, the few batches of shields sold are too thin and of very poor quality. Quartermasters from many factions feel that the quality is not as good as before, which damages the credibility of our workshop. Boss Li, you have to improve on these.

"Tian Buwei frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with the quality of the ordnance produced by Li Tianchang.

Li Tianchang's cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and he could only keep saying: "These must be changed, they must be changed! I hope your lord and Lord Tian will forgive me for these."

Of course the situation Tian Buwei mentioned exists, but it is very rare. In ancient times, there was no unified standard for manufacturing things, so naturally there were good ones and bad ones. The workshops under Li Tianchang should be considered to have very few defective products.

In fact, these are just Tian Buwei cooperating with Zeng Yu to deliberately find faults and beat Li Tianchang to prevent Li Tianchang from slacking off.

This workshop is a fat job, and Li Tianchang, the owner of the workshop who has been working there for many years, will inevitably become complacent and arrogant if he doesn't do a lot of work.

Only by making your subordinates fearful at all times can they stop slacking off and work diligently.

In terms of remuneration, Huce Mansion has the most generous treatment, and there is no need to worry that if someone is missing, there will be no talented people to replace them.

"Forget it about these little things. Tianchang, I think your management is pretty good. But you still need to work hard!" Zeng Yu stood up, patted the water stains on his hands, and waved Tian Buwei to stand aside.

He smiled and said: "Generally speaking, you are still a hard-working person and can be used!"

"Thank you for the compliment, my lord. Tianchang really doesn't deserve it." After being so affirmed by Zeng Yu, Li Tianchang's heart that was in his throat finally dropped, his mood calmed down, and he felt much better.

"Don't just focus on manufacturing and production, but also keep up with the research and development of new weapons. How is the development of trebuchets over there?" Zeng Yu asked.

"It's almost, it's almost." Beads of sweat rolled down Li Tianchang's head again. Developing a trebuchet was the first task Zeng Yu asked him to do, but Zeng Yu required a small number of responsible manpower and a long range.

It's hard to grasp. You must know that the large catapults at this time had more than a hundred people. It would be incredible to reduce it to a dozen people.

"The daily output of iron ore seems to be a little low." Zeng Yu also knew the difficulty and did not continue to ask. He walked at the front step by step, looking at this city of workshops built by himself. For this city

, he is full of hope to build a city of weapons that is well-known far and wide, and turn Huce Mansion into a golden city that is self-reliant and self-sufficient! The output of iron ore is the basis for the development of this city, so Zeng Yu has no choice but to let it go.

care.

"In this regard, I have already mentioned this to Mr. Liu Ying from the Construction Corps. He said that more manpower will be sent over in the near future. I believe that with brothers from the Construction Corps coming to help, production should increase soon." Li Tianchang bowed his head and said.

: "My lord, there are several high-quality arms workshops in our city that specialize in the production of some high-attribute equipment. I have specially selected a few high-quality items, and please come and admire them."

"Well, I won't go to the city." Zeng Yu said calmly, looking at the towering smokestacks in the city, "I don't understand the technical aspects, so I have to rely on you, but the sharpness of the ordnance is very important.

The lives of the soldiers are at stake, I hope you will not neglect this!"

"Yes, yes!" Li Tianchang wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded in response.

"You also know my schedule this time!" Zeng Yu said seriously: "If you want to find a way out at the discussion meeting held by Yan Xing, ordnance is also a good thing to win over some of the seniors! Don't forget, we

The establishment of the Huce Prefecture Officials and Business Association also relied on ordnance! So Brother Tianchang, you have a very important responsibility! I hope you will not disappoint our hopes!"

"Yes, yes! I will ensure the quality and quantity!" Li Tianchang could also feel the anxiety in Zeng Yu's heart. He and the Hu Ce Mansion also shared weal and woe, so naturally he did not dare to play tricks on this.

"Okay!" Zeng Yu stared at Li Tianchang solemnly, "In terms of logistics, we will rely on Brother Tianzhang. Now our Huce Mansion has grown from a small territory to a large force with 200,000 elite soldiers, and we will definitely do the same in the future.

Expand to one million! As long as the elite soldiers have Brother Tianchang’s superior weapons and equipment, I will really want to see who doesn’t have eyes and dares to mess with our Huce Mansion!"

The ordnance burden of a million-strong army! Thinking of this kind of responsibility makes your heart beat!

After hearing what Zeng Yu said, Li Tianchang, who was full of blood, immediately knelt down and said: "My lord, you have given me such a great trust! Tianchang has no choice but to devote himself to his work!"

While Zeng Yu was inspecting the Luepan Road, Fu Hao led ten thousand black tigers and rode straight out of Fuping County, heading towards Guzang with billowing smoke.

Guzang is the seat of Wuwei County and the seat of Liangzhou City. Wuwei County has been jointly managed by Han Sui and Ma Teng since Dong Zhuo came to Beijing.

After Han Sui and Ma Teng had a falling out, they fell into Han Sui's hands for a time.

And this time, Yan Xing relied on the strength of his top military generals to forcefully take over Guzang City from the three guards left by Han Sui, planning to hold the largest discussion in Liangzhou history here.

General Assembly.

Although this conference has not yet been held, Yan Xing's popularity in Liangzhou is unparalleled at this time.

If Zeng Yu wants to enter the city without being controlled by Yan Xing, he must break Yan Xing's great prestige! Only in this way can he gain the unity of other sympathetic people and not be suppressed by Yan Xing's general trend.

Although Zeng Yu adopted many methods, such as wooing the player lords, relying on them to use money to get through the indigenous county guards or generals behind them, and trying to win the favor of these people. On the other hand, large funds were injected into Liangzhou's famous military

Liu Rong, the utensil dealer, asked Liu Rong to use money to bribe a group of low-level officials to speak for him.

But Yan Xing has always been a first-rate general. This kind of prestige is not something that anyone dares to provoke casually. What's more, Zeng Yu is a strange person who made a fortune alone in Beidi County, and many forces are hostile. In such a situation, you want others to take the initiative

It is not very realistic to come out and speak for Huce Mansion.

You have to rely on yourself for everything!

Therefore, Zeng Yu had to make good use of this army, that is, to be the vanguard, rush into Wuwei County, and set up the flag under Guzang City, which became the first step to break Yan Xing's prestige!

Originally, this important task should be taken on by Xie Guini, who has the highest level of force. However, force is not the best choice for this kind of matter! Courage comes first!

In Liangzhou after Ma Teng and Han Sui left, although there were some vacancies for famous generals, Xie Guini couldn't resist a random famous general!

Therefore, the woman's courage became Zeng Yu's first choice.

Moreover, Mrs. Fuhao also wants to use this time to raise her reputation high and become famous all over the world!
