I am a child of Daqin Xiong, who supervises the country at the age of eight

Chapter 83 Black Powder Making Technique
In the north of the Great Qin Empire, there has always been such an enemy.

That is the Huns.

This enemy must be powerful.

He is not strong.

Can't really say it's powerful.

Because the Xiongnu is inferior to the Great Qin in terms of population, army size, and weapons preparation.

However, even with such an enemy, Da Qin needed to find ways to deal with them.

And this is also the gap between nomadic peoples and farming peoples.

It's not that the farming people can't fight or the nomadic people, but because the farming people are born with only two legs, while the nomads ride horses.

Under such circumstances, their mobility is far stronger than that of Great Qin's soldiers.

On the battlefield, when the Qin army had a large number and great advantage, and could defeat the opponent, the Huns ran away on horseback.

And even the Qin army can defeat the opponent.

However, unless the opponent is completely surrounded.

form an encircling circle.

Otherwise, these defeated Huns will still escape!
And the Qin army couldn't catch up - how could two legs catch up with four?

Even the cavalry of the Qin army could not catch up with the cavalry of the Huns.

The reason is simple - it is not easy for farming people to raise horses.

During the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing spent decades recuperating and building a large number of horse farms throughout the Han Dynasty. However, the number of horses they could manage still could not keep up with the Huns.

What's more, what about the current Daqin?
The cavalry of the Great Qin had only one horse per person, while the cavalry of the Huns had a considerable number of horses, at least two or three horses per person. ,
This is so meow, meeting this kind of opponent is like hitting cotton with a fist.

Can't do it!
At this moment, after hearing Shen Lian's report that the Huns were ready to move, Ying Changsheng was not shocked.

Because, counting the days carefully, in history, it seems that during this period of time, the Huns began to move around!

"How did you get the news?"

Ying Changsheng asked Shen Lian.

"A few days ago, I sent a few Jinyi guards outside the Great Wall. As a result, they sent back news in the past few days, saying that there was a change in Touman Chanyu of the Huns, and informed us that I would be the defender of the Great Wall. , be prepared..."

"Ah."

Ying Changsheng nodded, and then said to Shen Lian.

"Go down and rest, what about the Huns?"

"no need to worry!"

Well, Ying Changsheng didn't take the Huns seriously at all.

Nomadic peoples, facing farming peoples, have the advantage of mobility.

Nomads are tougher?

Bullshit!

Da Qin’s is the Qin of tigers and wolves.

Moreover, how high is the equipment level of the Qin army?
In addition, the total population of the Xiongnu is less than one-tenth of that of Daqin!
As long as the two sides start a war and achieve a relatively balanced casualty ratio, the Huns will be finished sooner or later!

If it weren't for the fact that the Huns' territory was too vast, the Huns fled too fast, and their mobility was too strong, if the two sides fought in a majestic battle.

Just the current number of Dingkou of the Huns.

It's not enough for Daqin to charge in one round!
……

The next day.

The weather brightened up.

Ying Changsheng got up, and after washing, not long after, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were brought into the palace to see him.

"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang have met the Nineteenth Young Master!"

After seeing Ying Changsheng, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang hurriedly saluted Ying Changsheng.

"Free gift!"

Ying Changsheng waved his hand and then looked at Chen Sheng and Wu Guang in front of him with interest.

Well, people from later generations are probably full of curiosity about the two of them.

But in the eyes of Ying Changsheng at the moment, Chen Sheng seemed so ordinary.

He's just an ordinary, ordinary person.

Wu Guang on the side is more like a loyal and simple old farmer.

"Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, are you two willing to work under my command?"

"Yes, yes!"

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said hastily.

Well, this is not the time in history when Brother Zu Longzheng has already died.

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, from the bottom of their hearts, did not dare to rebel.

After all, if Zulong is not dead, who would dare to rebel?

These words are not just words!
What's more, although Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's reputation in history is very great.

But, actually?
The status of the two in daily life is quite low.

Especially before the two rebelled.

Simply not too low.

Especially Chen Sheng, his family has no land property, so he can only rely on planting land for others and work as a long-term laborer to make ends meet. ,
Under such circumstances, suddenly, there was an opportunity to do business for the nineteenth prince who was the most beloved of the Emperor of the Great Qin Empire.

For Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, it was a happy event from heaven.

Unless the two of them are out of their minds, they will never refuse.

Seeing that Chen Sheng agreed, Ying Changsheng was very satisfied, he said.

"Then stay and work with me!"

As he spoke, Ying Changsheng instructed Xiao He who was on the side.

"Xiao He, go back and arrange a place for the two of them. In addition, give them a few coins and let them buy some clothes and so on..."

"Thank you, Young Master Nineteen!"

Chen Sheng and Wu Guang hurriedly expressed their thanks to Ying Changsheng.

But Ying Changsheng waved his hand and said calmly.

"What is this? Follow me, and you will benefit from it!"

After all, Ying Changsheng went out of the palace.

As he walked, he listened, and in his mind, the rewards were issued.

[Ding, subdue Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, change the fate of the Great Qin State]

[Reward, National Luck Value [-], Black Powder Production Technique]

……

Academy.

At this time, after a few days of busy work in the academy, it can be seen that the building has begun to take shape.

The children of the aristocratic family, although they usually don't distinguish the five grains, they don't work hard.

However, I have to say that the physical fitness of these people is quite good.

After all, in the current era when the vast majority of the people can't eat enough to eat, there is really nothing to say about the physical fitness of these aristocratic sons and daughters who can eat a full meal and have sufficient nutrition.

At the beginning, they may not be used to doing these rough and tiring tasks, but when they are proficient, their work efficiency is still quite high!
"Young Master Nineteen, are you here?"

Seeing Ying Changsheng coming over, the students all said hello to Ying Changsheng.

At the same time, Xiang Yu was playing chess with Zhang Liang, the vice president of the academy, in the distance under a bamboo shed.

Chess is nothing else.

It is a military chess game invented by Ying Changsheng.

Xiang Yu is a well-deserved stinky chess player. It can be said that he wins less and loses more when he plays against anyone. However, this guy just likes to be abused on the chessboard.

At this moment, seeing Ying Changsheng coming, he messed up the chessboard and said to Zhang Liang.
