After the last fire, the academy suffered too much damage. Now, under the auspices of the Ministry of Works and Tiangongyuan, reconstruction has begun.
The academy learned its lessons. In the construction of the academy, it took reference from the Hidden Sword Villa and installed many institutions.
Although these mechanisms look simple, they are very difficult to deal with.
With the in-depth research on the mechanism chapter of ancient book inheritance, the mechanism skills of Hidden Sword Villa are becoming more and more perfect.
Later, with the help of Shen Yuxing, the mechanism chapter integrated the existing mechanism techniques, bringing about a transformative revolution in the mechanisms of Da Zhou.
In these mechanisms, Bai Yutian can even see a hint of the technological civilization of the previous world. If this direction develops, Da Zhou's technological level will definitely improve rapidly.
Bai Yutian walked out of the palace and inspected the reconstruction of the academy.
In Bai Yutian's vision, in the future the martial arts academy and academies should be integrated into one, becoming the top institution of higher learning in the Great Zhou Dynasty, cultivating people with both civil and military talents.
Nowadays, the Great Zhou Dynasty is on the defensive in both wars, basically only defensive but not offensive.
Considering the current national strength of the Zhou Dynasty, only defending without attacking is definitely the best way.
To destroy the two countries and regain the lost territory is not something that can be accomplished overnight.
After seeing the power of Tianjia, Bai Yutian decided to shift his focus to the training of warriors first, so that Da Zhouyong would have more top-notch combat power.
Otherwise, the Zhou army may suffer heavy losses by then.
Tianjia is already so tyrannical, and Fuzhou is probably not much different from Tianjia.
Dian Wei and Zhao Chuxue were guarding Bai Yutian. Zhao Chuxue looked at Bai Yutian with worries in his eyes.
After several inquiries from Zhao Chuxue, Bai Yutian finally admitted that he had swallowed the black bead that day to gain great power.
He even almost lost his mind, but luckily Bai Yutian managed to stabilize his mind.
Although Bai Yutian looks normal now, there is a curse on the black bead.
Zhao Chuxue might not have believed this mysterious statement before, but after learning about the glorious martial arts of Dazhou, Zhao Chuxue somewhat believed it.
Since it is a curse, it will definitely be filled with a lot of unknowns.
"Hey!" Regarding this, Zhao Chuxue could only sigh inwardly.
With her current strength, even if something unexpected happens to Bai Yutian, she probably won't be able to help. She might as well work hard to improve her own strength.
Shen Yusheng has already pointed out the path for them, and all they need to do is practice according to the path pointed out by Shen Yusheng.
At the same time, after the incident in the academy, Bai Yutian changed again in the eyes of the people in Tailin City.
Under the vivid narration of everyone in the academy, people simply regarded Bai Yutian as an immortal, worshiping and admiring him crazily.
At this time, Bai Yutian was inspecting the streets. The streets were packed with people, and everyone was vying to get a picture of Bai Yutian's true face.
Bai Yutian has no airs. Even when facing ordinary people, he responds with a smile, which has received a great response.
Everyone knows that Bai Yutian is a good emperor who loves his people like his own son.
Suddenly, Fan Yongxian, the Minister of War, and Lu Zhiren, the Minister of Hubu, squeezed into the crowd and asked to see Bai Yutian.
Bai Yutian was stunned. Fan Yongxian and Lu Zhiren were so anxious to come to see him in person, which meant that something big must have happened.
Therefore, Bai Yutian didn't care about the inspection and sent people back to the palace directly to summon Fan Yongxian and Lu Zhiren.
Fan Yongxian and Lu Zhiren were both selected from the first batch of talent selections. At that time, countless ministers and officials who were attached to the Gu family were dismissed and investigated, and the six departments were almost unable to operate, so Bai Yutian directly activated them.
However, these people lived up to Bai Yutian's high expectations and managed the Great Zhou in an orderly manner, even better than the previous ministers.
Fan Yongxian and others have also contributed a lot to Tailin City being able to achieve its former prosperity.
Fan Yongxian handed a letter to Bai Yutian for Bai Yutian to read.
After Bai Yutian saw the content above, his eyes widened and he was stunned for a long time.
He had been dealing with Tianjia matters before, and then started the warrior training plan, personally supervising it, and neglecting matters on the battlefield.
I thought that with the skills of Kou Wang, Jing Ling and others, on the premise of only defending but not attacking, they could stabilize the situation and prevent the enemy from advancing.
Although Kou Wang lost Huaizhou City, most of the territory in Jiangbei was still in the hands of Zhou Dynasty, so he did not panic.
Who would have thought that there would be trouble right now.
There is a serious shortage of food in the two prefectures of Jiangbei. The soldiers have not been paid for several days.
In order to obtain food, some defenders even opened the city and surrendered to the Dachuan Kingdom, causing half of Huaizhou to fall.
And Kou Wang's situation is also precarious.
"Have you not bought food before the war started? How could there be a shortage of food?" Bai Yutian glared at Lu Zhiren.
The person responsible for purchasing food was none other than Lu Zhiren.
Seeing Bai Yutian's furious expression, Lu Zhiren immediately felt frightened.
Nowadays, Bai Yutian's sense of oppression against them is getting stronger and stronger. The more approachable he is, the more terrifying he becomes when he gets angry.
"Your Majesty, a large-scale locust plague has broken out in Jiangbei. The harvest has been sharply reduced. Most of the stored grain has been lost. There is no way to produce excess grain." Lu Zhiren cried.
Lu Zhiren was responsible for the purchase and dispatch of grain. Before the war began, his plan was that the armies of the two Jiangbei states would be directly provided by the Jiangbei Granary.
The food for the Mingzhou battlefield was directly borne by the imperial court.
The entire Tailin City was tense, but it could still support the Fenghuo Camp army's food supply.
Nowadays, the food supply in the Mingzhou battlefield can be sustained.
However, Lu Zhiren could not have predicted that a large-scale locust plague would break out in Jiangbei. All food supplies would drop sharply, and even the stored food supplies would be eaten away, causing the soldiers to run out of food.
"If the soldiers continue to be short of food, then I will have to retreat. Thousands of miles of territory north of the Yangtze River will fall into Yu Xiang's hands. By then, Tailin City will be exposed to the Nanchuan wolf army." Bai Yu
Tian couldn't help but roared angrily.
If we retreat now, all our previous efforts will be wasted, and even Jiangbei will not be able to be defended.
As for taking the initiative to attack, Bai Yutian has no such plan at all. Not to mention whether he can win in the short term, even if he wins, he will not be able to defend these places without logistical supplies.
Moreover, long-term food shortages may lead to mutiny.
"Call Yuncheng and the others over, I want to hold a meeting." Bai Yutian ordered the people below.
Soon, Yuncheng and other close ministers of Bai Yutian came to the palace and met Bai Yutian.
"Tell them about the matter." Bai Yutian ordered.
Most people didn't know anything about Jiangbei, so Fan Yongxian and Lu Zhiren told each other the general situation in Jiangbei.
After saying that, there was silence in the room, and everyone's expressions became heavy.
