Seeing Gai Nie easily splitting the hardest gray object with his second sword, Qin Wangzheng took a closer look and saw that the cut was very smooth, as if he didn't expend much effort.
"The sword I just struck, with Yuan Hong's sharp edge, would be difficult for ordinary warriors to block. If this thing wasn't only one foot thick, I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy to do this."
Gai Nie also looked closely at the gray object. He knew clearly the power of the sword he swung. If the thickness of the gray object was about three feet, he would have to spend even more effort to cut it.
Cut open.
"There are not many stones that are so hard in the Xia Dynasty."
Then, Genie commented on the gray stuff.
"Haha, this thing was made by Marquis Wu Zhen in the National Protectorate Academy a few days ago with those doctors. It was made of soft limestone and burned into ash, mixed with other hardware and other items."
"Three types of gray matter are formed. The hardness of the cracked piece under Mr.'s sword exceeds that of limestone by an unknown amount."
"I'm afraid there aren't many warriors who transform into gods in the entire Xia Dynasty."
Qin Wangzheng naturally knew about the level of cultivation of warriors. God-transforming warriors were rarely seen in the Xia. Even within the net, they could not even be counted.
Among the hundreds of schools in Shandong, there are even fewer of them. Sure enough, this thing is bigger and thicker. If it is transformed by the National Protector Academy, it will probably be even harder.
"It is made of soft limestone and mixed with other hardware."
"This..., the gray rocks are countless and can be obtained at your fingertips."
"From what the king said, it seems that it is quite easy to smelt this thing. It is indeed easy. Then the Qin Dynasty's major roads running through major counties and counties will be built at ten times the previous speed."
"Moreover, it can also save a lot of manpower and material resources, and it can even be used to build passes, city walls, and the Great Wall... If this piece of thing is more than one foot thick and the god-transforming warrior wants to destroy it,
It’s all very unlikely.”
"If it reaches more than ten feet, I'm afraid it will only be a warrior above the entrance level."
As a disciple of Guigu Zongheng, King Guan specially tested the hardness of the gray object with Marquis Wu Zhen today to know the materials needed to smelt the object.
There is also a trace of joy flowing between his eyebrows.
I'm afraid that the king also has many methods of application that he mentioned.
The hardness of the first two pieces of gray matter is unknown, but the hardness of the piece of gray matter under my sword is still known. It is very hard, and even the warrior who transforms into a god has to use force.
"In addition, for the Order of Datian, it should be much more convenient to build various water conservancy projects. Marquis Wu Zhen can do it at will, which is a great achievement."
"Last month, there were messages and words from Lishan that the Shaofu was required to provide more manpower and material resources to mine stones. Now... I think this thing can satisfy them."
Gai Nie said, and what Qin Wangzheng was thinking at this moment, the formation of this object is very simple. It only needs to be fired, and then poured into the water. After a few days, it will become a hard object on its own.
As for its applications, they are probably countless.
This move is another great contribution to the king's brother.
King Qin was more happy politically.
"It's just..., if the smelting of this thing is simple, and it is learned by the countries in Shandong and used to build passes and other things, I am afraid that the general's next attack on the city and the land will be greatly affected."
Although these things are good, if your Majesty really plans to use them on a large scale, the people in the Shandong countries will not fail to see them.
As for the talented people in Shandong, if they learn from them and use them to make the city stronger and the passes more stable, this is the result that I was willing to see before.
"The Chu people who have shields and spears praise them by saying: My shield is so strong that nothing can trap it."
"He also praised his spear and said: My spear is so sharp that it can trap everything."
"Maybe you can say: How about using Zi's spear to trap Zi as a shield? There is such a saying in "Han Feizi", and I think it makes some sense. This thing may become a defensive shield for the countries in Shandong."
"But I have prepared sharp spears for them!"
In response to Gai Nie's worries, King Qin Zheng smiled and looked at the three pieces of gray objects that were all cracked. He stepped back to Xingle Palace, and he couldn't help but speak loudly.
In the National Protectorate Academy, there are not only these things, but also the things extracted from the fierce fire oil have been tightly sealed in the National Protector Academy.
It doesn't matter if those dusty things and other things are learned from the Shandong countries, because... right now, there are powerful enough weapons in hand to break through such a pass.
It's just...it's not available yet.
Because the states of Yan, Wei, etc. are not qualified enough.
Among the Xia, only Southern Chu is worthy of Qin Wangzheng's preparation. In the future, he will either not fight against Nan Chu, or he will attack Chu in one fell swoop and unite all the Xia.
Zhou Qing followed him unhurriedly.
Although Genie had doubts, he thought that the king should make his own decision in this matter.
******
The city of Xingyang has a wide tributary branching from the river... Sishui! To the north is Xingkou, where the river flows out, and the Beizhai land going south.
From here, there is a big river going to the southeast, and there is the Great Wall between Wei State and Korea in the past. Crossing the Great Wall, there is Dagou, Lianggou, which is collectively called Honggou.
Connected to the small town of Shahai, there is a straight and specially excavated river, which introduces water from the river and irrigates hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile farmland around Daliang City. The water is graceful and has become the moat of Daliang City.
After leaving Daliang City, going south, you will enter the main trunk of Honggou, which has several tributaries.
"How about Ota Order?"
The land of Guangwu was where Wang Ben and his troops were stationed. There were 50,000 elite soldiers, and there would be 50,000 more to support them later. The camps were displayed, the shogunate's military tents were bright, and there were many interior furnishings.
Wearing a black coat and slightly tan skin, he walked around the shogunate, looked at the exquisite terrain sand table in front of Ota Ling, smiled slightly, and asked.
"If there is a water attack, there is no need to consider the south of the chasm. You only need to use force north of the chasm."
"It's just that... I have heard that in Daliang City, there is a clamor that Wei Mou is trying to lead troops to keep the general out? Sure enough, water attack is quite difficult."
Datian ordered Zheng Guo to have already arrived at Wang Ben's army, and they were all advancing in an orderly manner. At present, the only obstacle was the soldiers of Wei State blocking the pass at the Great Wall.
Although there are not many people, it is still a big trouble.
Moreover, the final plot in Daliang City has not yet been completed. As expected, the King of Wei agreed to let Wei Mou lead the troops outside. So, it was necessary to have a battle first and then launch a water attack.
Move your eyes away from the terrain sand table and look at Wang Ben.
Sure enough, if the King of Wei insists on guarding the center, then this summer... this year, Wei will be destroyed!
"Xiao Wei Mou?"
"How does it compare to Lord Xinling? Lord Xinling was famous in the Xia Dynasty back then. He even defeated the Qin State in the Battle of Handan and in front of Hangu Pass. In the end, he died sadly under the order of the King of Wei."
Since the general of the Wei State was clamoring for Wei Mou, Wang Ben naturally knew that if this person did not exist, he would have led the army into the territory of the Wei State long ago, but... that was only a matter of time.
"Even so, it should not be underestimated."
"This person can be considered to have experienced the affairs of Lord Xinling. I'm afraid he has some plans. If he is actually prompted to guard the army outside, it will be a big trouble."
Zheng Guo didn't know much about the army, but since Wei Mou could be the general of Wei, he would not have thought of the fate of Lord Xinling, and there are many schools of thought in Daliang City.
It is impossible to say that any good ideas will be lost.
"Even if Wei Mou keeps his troops outside, how many troops can he have?"
"Yang Duan and General are stationed in Julu with one hundred thousand elite troops. Wei will have to mobilize at least one hundred thousand troops. Yingchuan County and Nanyang County will also need more than fifty thousand soldiers."
"And the entire northern part of Wei State and both sides of the river are under my control, unless Wei Mou mobilizes all the elite soldiers of Wei!"
Wang Ben pointed at the terrain sand table in front of him. There were only more than 200,000 soldiers in the Wei Kingdom. In terms of elites... less than 100,000. How dare Wei Mou have the courage to suppress all the troops at the port north of the chasm?
If that's the case, I will go south to Daliang from the land of Yangwu!
In any case, I have complete control over this battle, and at this moment in Daliang City, I also have a strategy that I have fallen behind. I don’t know how Xiao Wei Mou will deal with it.
"Report!"
"Major General, there is a team of 500 people from Nanyang County rushing to help."
Inside the military tent, Wang Ben was discussing with Datian's commander Zheng Guo the best strategy for a water attack. It was already the end of the month, and the flood season in the river was about to come.
There are many things that should be prepared.
Suddenly, the loud voice of the sergeant in front of the tent came.
"A five-hundred-man team from Nanyang County?"
"This..., it seems that I have not asked for help from Nanyang County?"
According to the military order document left by the king, if his own fifty thousand troops are not enough, troops from Sanchuan County, Yingchuan County, Nanyang County, Hanoi County, etc. will be used.
However... Wang Ben did not issue an order for rescue.
Why... a team of 500 people will come today.
"The leader of the five hundred troops is named Ruan Wengzhong. He holds documents from Marquis Wu Zhen and dispatch documents from Nanyang County Governor. And... they all seem to be from Baiyue!"
Outside the military tent, the sergeant thought for a while, those five hundred people were really special. At least they could have documents from Marquis Wu Zhen, which was not something ordinary people could do.
Coupled with the dispatch documents from Nanyang County Sheriff, it is not considered a violation.
"Ruan Wengzhong! A man from Baiyue!"
"Wu Zhenhou!"
"Take me to them."
Hearing this, Wang Ben's face became slightly solemn. Whether it was his identity as a Baiyue person or Marquis Wu Zhen's documents, they all deserved his attention. He immediately bowed to Zheng Guo, the order of Datian.
