"Wu Lang knew in his heart that he wanted to give Goguryeo some color this time. My brother wants the Changbai Mountain where ginseng can be grown. How much of it should be taken, Wu Lang, you can make up your mind." Li Er chose to believe Li Yuanxing.
However, Li Yuanxing made a request: "My brother wants to build two cities, or maybe three."
"Do you have money?" Li Er asked back.
"I don't have it, but the aristocratic families do. I only need the emperor's permission. I need steel mills in Liaodong that are five times or even ten times larger than Yaozhou. I need five million tons of refined steel per year, or even five times."
Tens of millions of tons of fine steel. I want to use fine steel to build a bridge across the Yellow River. I want to build a bridge in Liangzhou in one day!"
Li Yuanxing's words did not surprise Li Er.
If these words had been spoken a year ago, Li Er would have definitely jumped up.
One ton is one thousand kilograms (a new unit of measurement in the Tang Dynasty, which has been mentioned in many chapters before, and has been used in Yaozhou)
Fifty million tons, that is, half a million kilograms, which is tens of thousands of times the steel output of the former Sui Dynasty. You must know that during the Wude period, the total steel and iron production in the Tang Dynasty was less than two times according to the current new calculation method.
Thousand tons, and steel accounts for less than half.
As for Li Yuanxing's Yaozhou, the current steel production has reached 500,000 tons a year, of which more than 70,000 tons of refined steel have been produced.
Is it much?
Li Yuanxing said that in the future, a large steel group would have a steel output of 30 million tons or more.
Any small steel mill can produce hundreds of thousands or even millions of tons a year.
The manpower used by Li Yuanxing was thousands of times that of small steel mills in later generations. A small steel mill in later generations only had a few hundred people. Li Yuanxing invested 100,000 people in the steel mill and the supporting industries.
"Brother Emperor, when a war reaches its extreme, you are not fighting people, you are fighting money!"
"Money?" Li Er was a little confused.
"My brother has many new weapons. One shot can cost hundreds of coins. When attacking a city, hundreds or thousands of weapons can be fired in an instant. Not to mention people, half of the city can be reduced to the ground."
. Thousands of guans were shot out like this, and then the sergeant only had to go in and clean up those who were lucky enough to survive."
Li Er nodded. He had seen the Vulcan Flying Crow. If that thing was to blow up the city gate, as long as one shot hit it, no city gate could stop it. But one shot cost more than ten guan, and that thing would cost hundreds more.
, not to mention the city wall, the entire city has become flat ground, which is definitely a weapon for attacking fortresses.
"That's right, Wu Lang will do something about it. But as for the results of the city's construction, the Prince of Qin's Mansion will issue a very detailed seal to keep on file!"
"Thank you, brother emperor, I will take my leave!"
Li Er waved his hand, indicating that Li Yuanxing could leave.
Cui Dunli also gave a salute and then exited. Then the Chief of the Forbidden Army came in and stood in the corner of the room, performing guard duties. Eunuch Gao stood on Li Er's side: "Your Majesty, what varieties should I choose for the Thousand Dumplings Banquet?"
Li Er ignored Eunuch Gao and asked: "If we attack the city and Wulang burns half of the city into a sea of flames, how many people do you need, how long will it take to capture the city, and how many casualties are expected."
"
"Return to your Majesty!" The Chief of the Forbidden Army knew that he was being asked, and took a half step forward to salute: "The entire city can be cleared in one hour. Depending on the size of the city, for Shuofang City, 3,000 people are enough. There will be more than ten casualties.
It’s just that I can’t wait.”
"That's all, Wu Lang is going on another expedition, and I want you all to follow him and build some military merits."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
On the other side, Li Yuanxing left Chang'an.
"Cui Changshi, the plan to build the city can be started. Daibei, Guanzhong, and Hedong aristocratic families are responsible for this matter. The plan is given to them, and the requirements are also given to them. I need them to come up with a feasible plan. The steel mill will be built next year
The output is 500,000 tons, and the steel is no less than 100,000 tons, with an annual increase of 30%. This is the minimum requirement. After all, this figure is guaranteed to me."
Li Yuanxing said, handing a USB flash drive to Cui Dunli: "Coal mines, lime, iron, gold, silver, copper. This is the distribution map of 150,000 types of mining areas, as well as the locations of the three cities. Don't destroy the forest, don't
Even if you destroy the river course, don't pollute the land and water. If you do, you will be punished by God if you pollute it and spoil the feng shui."
Cui Dunli took the USB flash drive with both hands: "I understand."
"Let Yuanchun turn these things into paper for you. If you need any other relevant information, you can ask me for it!"
"Yes!" Cui Dunli doesn't know how to ask about computers, and he can't learn this thing, so Yuanchun is very suitable for printing. Now in Qinwangzhuang, in addition to Li Yuanxing's study, there are some expansions outside, and there are more
A secretary's office area where various tasks such as printing can be done.
When he returned to Qinwangzhuang, Li Yuanxing did not go back to the study, but went straight to the back courtyard.
"Wu Lang is free to come here today." Zhang Chuchen, who was sitting in the garden, stared at Li Yuanxing. She has been too idle recently. The bandits in Hebei are so good that they don't even practice their skills. They killed some.
More and more all surrendered. Then Zhang Chuchen sent people to do some activities in Bashu. As a result, even the green forests in Henan Road and Jiannan Road were subdued and claimed to accept the control of Qinwangzhuang.
Life without enemies would make the Qinwangzhuang Ranger Hall more and more boring.
"Two tasks."
"Don't use it as a trick to tease children!" Zhang Chuchen had already been fooled once by Li Yuanxing.
"In the first mission, I set a trap and asked Yeon Gaesumun of Goguryeo to save some people and leave, but I didn't want them to leave so smoothly. It would be enough if only one or two people returned alive, and Yeon Gaesumun also had to
Leave something behind. Let him come to Datang once, and it will really be a sightseeing tour."
Zhang Chuchen became interested.
"Leave him one hand and one eye!"
"It's up to you, but you must let him go back alive." Li Yuanxing smiled and nodded.
Zhang Chuchen also laughed: "This is interesting, very interesting. A thousand-mile chase is like a cat playing a mouse game. I believe there are many rangers willing to take on this mission."
"The other mission is more interesting. Sneak into Goguryeo. Find Zhao Yande, help him transport goods secretly, and encourage Yeon Gaesumun to rebel. As long as Yeongaesumun has the real power of Goguryeo, anything can be done, including assassination and kidnapping." Li Yuanxing
He was really cruel, with a hint of killing intent in his eyes.
"Then, does it violate the rules to kidnap a Goguryeo princess and sell her at a high price?" Zhang Chuchen did this on purpose. Who told Li Yuanxing not to take the Ranger Hall seriously and not even have a decent big mission?
Li Yuanxing was really sweating. He thought to himself, I wonder what kind of lawless things these people could do in Goguryeo. However, since they were causing damage, it was difficult to refuse this request. Li Yuanxing had no choice but to say: "As long as it does not affect the
My plan, I don’t care about the rest!”
"Very good, don't worry about the specific arrangements!"
"I would like to remind you that Yeon Gaesoo is also a master, a master of swordsmanship. There are at least four masters around him who are several times stronger than him."
"Master, geek! I like master."
Red Fu girl Zhang Chuchen ignored Li Yuanxing and asked the little girl next to her to ring the bell. This meant that there was a new mission, and it was a big mission to be released. There are so many rangers now that they can't all be here. But naturally they also
They are divided into many groups and all they have to do is send representatives over.
Masters! Hong Funu doesn't care what masters are, she is afraid that they are all too weak. Among the rangers, there are people who can defeat Yi Dao, and there are also people who have stronger martial arts than Qin Qiong at his peak. What kind of master, as long as you want to
Hongfu Nu had hundreds of ways to kill him, even taking action herself.
Li Yuanxing said to the personal guard who was following him: "Go to my study and ask Yuan Chun to take out the boxes numbered seventeen and sixty-nine from cabinet No. 3 of the warehouse. You can take them over in person!" After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he wrote in his notebook
There was a note written on it.
"Is it a reward?" Zhang Chuchen wanted to ask.
He saw Li Yuanxing wrote a note. It was definitely not an ordinary thing.
"In order to ensure the mission, I naturally have to be prepared." Li Yuanxing said with a smile.
In the Ranger Hall, more than 60 people have gathered here, representing most of the more than 90 Ranger groups named in Prince Qin's Mansion.
Some small groups did not come because they no longer had the manpower to take over the tasks. The Security Department of the Datang Empire had many tasks and they were already short of manpower.
"You are here, I trust you. I have a plan, which is prepared for the Tang Dynasty to destroy Goguryeo. One part of this plan is to let the Goguryeo people and the Tang Dynasty carry out military armaments.
Competition, to put it in a more understandable way, is that the Tang Dynasty was working hard to practice steel and prepare for war. And they were also practicing steel and preparing for war at all costs. This required a lot of money, food and manpower. After consuming these, the national strength would naturally decline.
Weak."
"We understand what His Highness said, please give us the task!"
"There is something that I deliberately asked them to steal back. But they can't do it that smoothly. Therefore, they only need two or three of their people to go back alive." After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he put a few photos on the table: "
This is a picture of a few people who must be alive. Yeon Gaesomun must be alive, and only one or two of the others can be alive.”
Zhang Chuchen immediately answered: "Even if you are alive, you still have to leave something behind when you come to Datang!"
"Cut off his hand!" someone immediately shouted.
The personal guards have brought what Li Yuanxing wanted.
Li Yuanxing opened the first larger box.
"This is a bow, not as good as the one at the New Year celebration. But it is also a six-stone bow with a range of 800 steps. It also has a night vision telescope."
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, the boy here walked around the room with the box.
Many people in the ranger took a breath. The powerful bow of 800 steps. There is no bow in the Tang Dynasty that can shoot to 800 steps. This reward is too rich.
The other box was smaller. The top ranger team representatives all had their eyes fixed on that box. When Li Yuanxing opened the box, they didn't even blink. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature for more novel updates.
