Daqin: Start With 100,000 Proficiency

"No, I have already written to the king, and the king said that he will send Zhao Gao here. This kid is a bit greedy for money, but he will not take any responsibility casually."

"So I will give him enough benefits before going so that he will not interfere with the development of Yongzhou.

After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, she looked at the vast pasture.

The dark green grass stretches all the way to the sky, and the snow-capped mountains in the distance can be seen vaguely.

The pride in Bai Ce's heart was also aroused. At this time, there was a world of great strife, and the world had been in turmoil for more than five hundred years. Now that it was under the iron heel of Qin, it was finally going to be unified.

And this great unification also has its own share.

Thinking of this, Bai Ce couldn't help but grabbed the rein and sang a song.

Xiao Xiao also let out a long roar like a dragon chant, and rode his horse into the distance.

On the day Xiao Xiao left the Yongzhou Grassland, heavy snow also fell quietly.

In Xiangping City, Liaodong.

This city has been an important northern town of Yan State for more than three hundred years since its establishment.

The high ground of Xiangping City is solid, and there are countless skulls hanging on the city wall. These are the heads of northern barbarians and Huns.

And these two forces are also very afraid of this city.

Now Xiangping City is the 067 capital of the Yan Kingdom. Since the two generals in Lejian and Sufu died in battle and were captured, Prince Dan of the Yan Kingdom became the King of Yan after his father died of illness.

Now King Yan Ji Dan is standing on the city wall of Xiangping City, the deep winter has come, and there is already heavy snow inside and outside the city.

Before taking the throne, Ji Dan led the Yan army to confront Wang Jian.

Then Wang Jian attacked Liaodong at the wrong time and retreated back to Jicheng.

So Ji Dan also got the support of all the ministers of the Yan State, and more importantly, he can completely control the 40,000 soldiers and horses that the Yan State now has.

Of the 40,000 soldiers and horses of the Yan State, except for the 6,000 people in Lelang City on the peninsula, 4,000 people were fighting against the barbarians farther north.

The remaining 30,000 people are all near Xiangping City.

Behind Ji Dan, there were three generals following him to inspect the defense situation on the city wall.

After seeing a somewhat old bed crossbow, Ji Dan turned to ask his general.

"Le Yun, how many crossbows are there in Xiangping City?"

"King Qi reported that there are sixty of them on the city wall, and thirty more will be made before the spring of next year.

"These ninety bed crossbows can cover the defense on three sides of Xiangping City. The south of Xiangping City faces the sea, and with the help of Le Lang's navy, if the Qin army dares to attack from the south, it will simply kill itself."

Le Yun is Le Jian's younger brother, and he has been guarding Pingcheng for five years.

In five years, Le Yun also more than doubled the overall defense of Xiangping City.

Ji Dan picked up the white snow that fell on the wall and scattered them under the city wall.

Ji Dan continued: "The last time Wang Jian's army attacked, although they didn't reach Xiangping, but once they sum up their experience and start attacking in summer, we won't have the advantage of severe cold."

Le Yun himself had never underestimated the Qin army. He said to Ji Dan: "Most of the road from Jicheng to Xiangping has been destroyed by the last general, and thirteen villages have been set up among the mountains along the road. Every step , will make Qin Jun pay a heavy price."

"When the Qin army reaches Xiangping City, it is estimated that winter will come, and then the Qin army will have to return without success."

Ji Dan is also very confident in the defense line arranged by Le Yun. The reason why Yan Kingdom can survive among the Seven Kingdoms and not be wiped out is more often due to these unique geographical advantages.

Heavy snow not only in Xiangping City, but also in Yongzhou City.

However, compared to the tense atmosphere of all staff preparing for the battle in Xiangping City, Youzhou City is much more joyful, and the people have joy on their faces.

Xiao Xiao realized Yongzhou's plan to donate food, and even in summer, many young and strong people in Yongzhou would go to war.

Relying on the sledge that greatly improved work efficiency and the refugees recruited from Yanmen County, Youce estimated that Yongzhou could maintain the standard of increased production compared with the previous year.

Grain trucks drove into the grain depot in Yongzhou City, which was already full.

And Fatty Mi was also prepared. Before the heavy snow came, he asked the Yongzhou Chamber of Commerce to pay for the construction of a new large granary outside the city. The Yongzhou Army sent two thousand soldiers to guard there, which was enough to guard against all Xiaoxiao.

After Xiao Xiao came back, he was still not idle. Except for staying at home during the Chinese New Year, he spent most of his time traveling between the dry iron workshop and the military camp.

The main thing Xiao Xiao has to do is to build various equipment for the swallow. The various parts produced by Qiantiefang are enough to assemble two hundred eight-ox crossbows and fifty catapults.

General Wang Jian had 300,000 men under his command, but only 300 bed crossbows and 100 catapults.

So when Wang Jian, who returned to Xianyang to recuperate, learned that Xiao Xiao was manufacturing these heavy equipment on a large scale, he wondered to himself, "What does Xiao Xiao want to do? He plans to bomb Xiangping City like a toy." drop?"

In addition to the eight-ox crossbow and the catapult, Xiao Xiao is also working on the mass production of fierce fire oil.

Although Aji is a very loyal and capable person.

But because he had been a slave for many years, he didn't care much about safety awareness, which also caused many of his slaves to die.

Xiao Xiao was also very angry because not only the slaves died, but also a lot of supplies would be lost every time the fire and oil exploded due to operational errors.

So Xiao Xiao directly convicted Ah Ji of negligence, and had him beaten with thirty army sticks in public.

The slaves hiding in the distance also watched Aji being beaten with twinkling eyes, and they began to feel admiration for the young general in their hearts.

After the thirty army sticks were beaten down, Ah Ji didn't say a word, just put on his clothes, and then staggered to continue his work.

Xiao Xiao couldn't stand it anymore, he pointed at Ah Ji angrily and said, "Pull that guy back for me, be gentle."

Two sergeants carefully helped Ah Ji back, and Xiao Xiao sat down and asked him, "Why do you have a problem with me beating you?"

"Of course not, Ah Ji is grateful to the master for giving me the chance to live, and Ah Ji also knows that he has caused the master to lose a lot of money and supplies, and it is right to be beaten.

"I have already announced that you are no longer a slave, can you stop calling me master?"

Aji smiled and shook his head.

Ah Ji knew that Xiao Xiao was very kind to him, and when he came to Yongzhou City, he allocated him a house and paid him wages.

Although I can't leave this place casually because of my special work, but if I ask those sergeants to buy something back, those sergeants will diligently go to Yongzhou City to help me buy things, and they won't even take my kickbacks.

This is impossible in the country of Yan. Even though Ah Ji was a slave of Le Jian, those soldiers never looked at him directly. .
