Author: sweet and sour wage earner

They were cutting down trees, which was both an order and their own free will.

Of course, you can still make money now.

There was excitement in these people's eyes, full of excitement and joy. They were happy and happy that some people didn't compete with them for this business.

Yes, in the eyes of these people, this time's corvee recruitment is actually more like a business, and it is a business that can make a profit without losing any money.

The cut trees can be burned as firewood, so there is no need to buy firewood in winter.

The price of firewood in this era was very expensive.

The remaining, unused firewood can be stored or sold.

When they were recruited before, the imperial court had already said that they were not restricted from cutting down these trees and firewood.

Somewhere in a mountain valley.

Wang Jian looked at the artillery in front of him with a bit of confusion on his face. He subconsciously touched his waist, but there was nothing there at this time.

He touched his forehead again, and it took him a long time to regain consciousness. He looked at the thing in front of him and said, "Have those fellow students really made this thing?"

Yes.

Wang Jian knew that Lu Sheng, Hou Sheng, and those "alchemists" who could now be called "chemists" were studying this thing, or this rule.

This is the secret that Baijia Palace keeps on the bright side.

But Wang Jian didn't expect that the first generation of firearms had already been manufactured.

His first reaction was so confused that he reacted almost instantly. He looked at Lu Sheng and Yang Tianyi not far away and said: "The power of this thing is somewhat different from what chemists have preset.

?”

Lu Sheng understood what Wang Jian meant and did not hide it. He said directly: "It seems to be very close to the power that the teacher guessed at the beginning."

After finishing speaking, he and Yang Tianyi looked at Wang Jian's expression and reaction with some concern.

This should not be good news for Wang Jian.

Because the greater the power of the firearm, the faster the attack on Baiyue, the smaller the danger, and the smaller Wang Jian's intention to die in battle.

However, Wang Jian's expression did not change at all, no, in other words, there was a change, but his face was filled with smiles and excitement.

He said excitedly: "So, the speed of attacking Baiyue this time will probably be very fast?"

Yang Tianyi had already come to his senses. Before he could speak, Lu Sheng beside him asked, "General Wang, why are you so excited? If you feel uncomfortable, you can always tell me."

Wang Jian also looked confused, as if he was even more confused: "Why am I unhappy? Uncomfortable?"

At this time, Yang Tianyi sighed quietly and said: "It's our villain's heart."

He looked at Wang Jian with a very sincere expression: "General Wang will attack Baiyue very quickly this time, but the war will not end so quickly."

Yang Tianyi explained to Wang Jian: "Because we need to extend the front line so that we can obtain more benefits."

"We need to build a city within a certain period of time. Tianhai City is a stronghold we occupy in the south."

"There are still some lands in the south with ripe rice and a climate suitable for rice growth that we envy and long for."

"The war is not about maiming them so that we can leave, but about turning them into our enemies and our friends. This is the final purpose of the war."

There was coldness in his voice: "This is true whether it is today's war or the war in the future."

"We are going to break the backbones of other people in the world. Only by breaking their backbones can we gain more benefits, more land, and more supporters."

Yang Tianyi is obviously a war leader. His voice is cold and ruthless. Even if Da Qin has not yet launched a war against the future, he already has the prototype of a war in his heart.

This was a famous and crazy war leader who was the mainstay and the pillar of the country during the period of the Second Emperor and even the Third Emperor.

He was also a war madman who left a mark in world history.

There are many books, movies, TV series, and even secondary creations about Yang Tianyi in later generations. These creations all highlight one key point, war and madness.

Even if the imperial family of Da Qin has never been cut off, Da Qin has continued.

Few people know that this famous war madman was actually a typical civilian official.

Perhaps it was because Da Qin had not clearly distinguished civil and military forces at this time?

Wang Jian looked at Yang Tianyi, as if he saw his young and proud self, and his face showed a bit of satisfaction involuntarily: "Not bad, not bad."

"Young people should be so ambitious!"

He said with a smile: "I have already promised Chen Xiaozi this time, and I will listen to you!"

"Tell me, how did Mr. Chen arrange it?"

Yang Tianyi looked at Wang Jian, the arrogance on his face completely disappeared, leaving only a little modesty and caution.

"Old General Wang, what Prime Minister Chen said is two speeds and one slowness."

"Siege a city quickly, build it quickly, and transform it slowly."

"Let some people in Dongyue accept the people of the Qin Dynasty, gradually accept the Qin Dynasty, become the people of the Qin Dynasty, and respect our emperor as a god."

"This is the best solution to the barbarians."

He said softly: "Prime Minister Chen also said that at this time, the mountain should be destroyed and a temple built."

"Now that the world is unified, some places in the south still worship some gods from their hometown."

"If the worship of these gods is good and can bring positive results, your Majesty and the court will not care, but what they worship is just evil heretics."

"That's why Prime Minister Chen wants to destroy the mountain and build a temple."

"Smash all those evil and obscene sacrifices to pieces, so that all the gods respected by the people of the Qin Dynasty are pardoned and canonized by Your Majesty and the Qin Dynasty!"

Wang Jian looked a little surprised when he heard such treacherous words.

He didn't expect Chen Ke to be so bold, but he still happily clapped his hands and laughed: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Wang Jian stood up suddenly: "Leave this matter to me!"

He turned his head and looked at Yang Tianyi: "You only need to say when the war will start!"

"I will use the shortest possible time to capture the land of East Vietnam!"

Yang Tianyi was also standing there, with some thinking in his expression, and he was constantly calculating something in his mind.

After a while, he said: "General Wang, at the current speed, we will be able to start the war in ten days and before winter!"

"If the old general can capture the land of East Vietnam in half a month, then we can complete the first and most important step of planning before the cold winter comes!"

Wang Jian didn't ask anything, just nodded and said: "Okay!"

He turned around and got on the horse, sitting on the horse with a leisurely and contented expression: "I am outside the city, waiting for your news!"

After saying that, he clamped his legs on the horse's back and led the horse towards the distance quickly!

Yang Tianyi, who stayed where he was, wiped his face and said with a teasing tone: "Our Marquis Wu Cheng has the youthful demeanor of that year."

Lu Sheng shrugged his shoulders: "What you two are doing has nothing to do with me anyway."

He stretched out and said, "I'm just here to ensure that there are no problems when transporting this firearm. I've had enough rest in the past few days. I'm going to start studying in seclusion tomorrow."

"Don't look for me if you have nothing to do."

After saying that, Lu Sheng also turned around and walked towards the cave. The cave had already been transformed into a suitable place for living, and it was no longer damp.

This time, Yang Tianyi was really the only one left.

He touched his nose: "Is this officer so unpopular?"

After sighing, he also walked towards the distance.

Xianyang City, Manufacturing Department

Large quantities of lime set off from Xianyang City and headed towards Sanchuan County, which was not too far away. To be precise, it was not Sanchuan County, but Zhongmu County.

Everyone who saw this scene was excited and excited.

What is this intended to do?

Among them, Shentu and Zhai Xi were the most excited.

The original group of people went to different industries and different places. Only the two of them believed in their own judgment and came to Zhongmu County without any doubts.

After waiting for another four months, they even felt guilty and suspected that they were too confident and had made a wrong judgment. They were about to wait a little longer and evacuate before they could wait, when they received the news.

Zhai Xi got very drunk that night and was full of excitement.

His source of information is quite accurate. He knows that what is being continuously transported from Xianyang City is a substance called "lime". When this substance is mixed with water and sediment, it will become a new material.

This material is used for road construction.

At this time, why did Daqin, which was about to be in a state of war, transport so much lime to Sanchuan County, that is, Zhongmu?

The purpose is of course to build roads!

His previous preparations are already showing signs and may even bear fruit soon!
