"Nowadays, the Six Kingdoms are in darkness, but the good generals are unable to plan for corrections in time. My Great Qin's display of arms will inevitably cause panic in the Six Kingdoms. As long as my Great Qin promises not to send troops, it will be able to stabilize temporarily. At this time, my Great Qin will propose arms trade. Of course I dare not buy it boldly, but I, Daqin, can provide it for free. The countries provided are Yan, Han, and Wei. These countries are weak. As long as my Daqin promises to provide arms, they are convinced of the power of firearms, and they will naturally be bold. My ambitions are inflated. I, Daqin, properly instigated them to attack those big countries, such as Zhao, Chu, and Qi. In this way, the war will start. Once the war starts, everything will be easy to handle." Shang Wenxuan Said slowly.

"En." King Qin nodded.

"I don't know how to implement Mr. Qin's ingenious plan?" Feng Quji asked.

"As long as the war starts, the small and weak countries with firearms will inevitably use their sharp firearms to seize the land of the big country. The big country has no firearms, and it will suffer a lot. The firearms of my Daqin at this time can be bought by anyone. .In order to deal with those small countries, it must cost a lot of money to buy. After the weapons are equal, the advantage will definitely not exist. I, Daqin, use this opportunity to continuously upgrade and transform these weapons. I will continue to buy them for the two countries. In this way, The war is constantly escalating and expanding, and the strength will naturally be lost." Shang Wen said.

"How to keep the war protracted? As everyone knows, all the prerequisites are based on the protracted war." Wei Liao asked a key question.

"Weapons are constantly being upgraded." Shang Wen simply replied.

Wei Liao remained silent, and began to think carefully about this possibility.

"If the Six Kingdoms get weapons and attack our Great Qin, won't the master's plan fail?" Li Si said coldly.

"Yes." Feng Quji said.

"This question is for the widow to answer." King Qin said.

"This firearm must rely on gunpowder, the secret of gunpowder. It is in the hands of my Daqin. In this way, my Daqin can completely control the six countries by exporting gunpowder. I think Mr. Qin will definitely do something about this gunpowder. This is one of them." King Qin talked eloquently.

"Secondly. The firearms used by my Great Qin must be higher than those of the six eastern countries. The range and power are far greater than the firearms bought for the six countries." King Qin said.

"Thirdly, the Six Kingdoms buy and sell firearms with such a large amount of money, which will definitely consume the financial and material resources of the Six Kingdoms. A country without any foundation, what is there to fear in my Great Qin?" King Qin said.

"My soldiers of Great Qin are not afraid of such six kingdoms." King Qin said.

"In this case, we will do as the master said." King Qin has completely figured out Shang Wen's strategy.Thus.The six countries only need long-term turmoil.Great Qin will inevitably rule the world.And it's effortless.Think here.King Qin is in a very good mood.

"Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate." Li Si said sadly.

"What's wrong?" King Qin asked.

"My Great Qin's national policy is to emphasize agriculture and suppress business. Now that the arms trade is in full swing, it will inevitably cause an imbalance. The food and grass of my Qin army will definitely not be guaranteed." Li Si said.

"This, the prime minister, don't worry. I know what I know. I will not let go of this food. Now that my Daqin has conquered a *big grassland, my Daqin's soldiers will have a good fortune." King Qin has accepted Shangwen's meat proposal in his heart.For Qin's current grain.Just keep the status quo.After all, Qin's military rations will change and its dependence on food will gradually decrease. In this way, the people of Great Qin can relax.

"Min..." Li Si saw that the King of Qin hadn't moved yet, and planned to say something else.Qin Wang has already waved his hand to signal, don't go on talking.

"This matter is settled like this." King Qin said.

Li Si bowed his hands and agreed.

"Your Majesty, in order to prevent the Six Kingdoms from imitating our Daqin firearms, our Daqin should plunder all the craftsmen from the Six Kingdoms. The craftsmen we plunder should provide higher salaries as a way to win over them. Then, we can establish a Firearms Research Institute. Make great efforts to develop firearms," ​​Shang Wen said.

"Good idea." King Qin said.

"Feng Aiqing, I will leave this matter to you." King Qin said.

"Here." Feng Quji agreed.

"When it comes to food, I believe that the most urgent task is to prepare the army for the winter. At the same time, we must also actively prepare for immigration, so as to fill in the huge gap left by our army's attack on the Huns and Hu people in time." Shang Wen continued.

"Well, sir is right. I'm about to discuss this point. After all, this matter is related to the safety of our Great Qin soldiers." King Qin said.

"Moreover, a large number of cattle, sheep and horses must be properly settled. In the coming year, these are the seeds of my Great Qin taking root on the grassland." Shang Wen said.

"En." King Qin nodded.

"Mr. Qin can think of it in time, and he must have a good plan in his mind. It's better to say it and listen." King Qin said.

"Then I'm making a fool of myself. I believe that my Daqin should take root in the grasslands and provide a steady stream of reliable meat and military rations. The nomadic people's own way of grazing must be abandoned. In order to facilitate management, a different method of grazing should be adopted. Captivity." Shang Wen said boldly.

"Oh. What kind of method is this?" King Qin asked.

"Compared with the free grazing method of nomads, this method has been greatly improved. And it can be relatively fixed. This is very important to the governance of our Great Qin." Shang Wen said.

"I don't know Mr. Qin, how about the grazing method you mentioned?" Feng Quji said.

"First of all, I, Daqin, want to distribute the grassland we seized according to a certain ratio. This ratio is calculated according to how many cattle, sheep, and horses a piece of grassland can bear. Then, it is calculated according to military achievements or the number of immigrants. Sure." Shang Wen paused.

"Next, we need to build a certain range of pastures according to the determined grassland. In this way, this piece of grassland will be fixed. On this grassland, I, Daqin, can calmly arrange the government, and I don't want to wander around like the original nomadic tribes. Shang Wen paused.

"For the cattle, sheep, and horses we raise, our Daqin can temporarily not collect any taxes and corvees. This can quickly restore the original vitality of the grassland. At the same time, our Daqin can also distribute the expenses and supplies in order to maintain the army's combat power. Some troops. In addition, you can also buy from them. In addition, for the grassland, you can issue weapons. These weapons form a militia with a certain combat power. To resist the invasion of other nomads in the grassland. At the same time, they also trained an iron cavalry for the Great Qin.” Shang Wen said When you're done, watch everyone's reactions.

"Your Majesty, this..." Li Si dissuaded.

"Well, I agree with Mr. Qin's approach. This approach can completely eliminate the great trouble in the north. It can also provide me with a fast cavalry team. Yes." King Qin said.

"Ai Qing. I understand what you mean. My Great Qin law stipulates that civilians are not allowed to hide weapons privately. But the situation can be changed. If other nomadic peoples in the north quickly move south, then the people of my Great Qin who moved there will be slaughtered in vain. .This. Don’t worry.” King Qin waved his hand as a signal.

"In addition, the king can give an order. As long as you voluntarily go to the north to work, you can get a certain amount of land and grassland for free. This can also greatly solve the problem of the number of immigrants." Shang Wen continued.

"Mr. Qin is right. The widow then gave the order." Qin Wang nodded and said.

"However, the widow thinks that this scope should be expanded. That is the six eastern countries. The widow not only wants to immigrate by himself, but also the people of the six countries. In this way, the ability of the soldiers of the six countries will be completely emptied. However, the assigned land If you want to be far away, you have to mix with the people of my Great Qin. In this way, you can quickly become the people of my Great Qin." King Qin said happily.

"My king's advice." Li Si, Feng Quji, and Wei Liao knelt down and bowed.Shangwen didn't react in time.

"Hahaha." King Qin laughed loudly.

"Get up, everyone." "Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone got up.

"By the way, Mr. Qin, I haven't seen the musket and cannon you mentioned. Now I am happy. Why don't you go and see it together." King Qin said.

"I'm here to prepare." Shang Wen said.

"Okay, the widow will be there soon." King Qin said.Shangwen retreated and said goodbye.Everyone also started to walk out of the hall.The king of Qin ordered Zhao Gao to call the generals in Xianyang city.Zhao Gao took the order to do it immediately.

Shangwen hurried back to the arsenal to check if it was ready.fine.It took a little longer for Shangwen to leave.The casting master cast two cannons in one morning.The size is longer than the first cannon, and the caliber is two inches.The shells have also been poured.Just wait until it cools down.Shangwen nodded and saw.As for muskets.A lot of gun barrels were produced, but many of them had not yet been processed, and Naofumi immediately organized manual processing.

What is needed now is the finished product.Rather than unfinished semi-finished products.Shangwen looked around.Shang Wen felt that, judging from the current musket shooting process.It may not be confirmed.After all, the journey is really too short.Shang Wen then found the casting master.This time, Shang Wen specifically asked for the name of the foundry master.It turned out that the cast was named Chen Da.Maybe the eldest in the family.Shangwen couldn't care less about it.Naofumi was on the ground, and began to draw the shape of the Minier bullet used for the musket.aerodynamic design.The tail is recessed.In this way, airtightness can be achieved very well.at the same time.After the gunpowder burns, the concave position at the back can expand rapidly.To achieve the best air tightness.This was originally intended for rifled guns.But now the matter is urgent, as long as it is used on the musket for the time being.After all, Chen Da had seen the power of muskets before.Knowing that it would be beneficial to do so, fortunately, I have made Daqin's bronze arrowhead.know what to do.So I started to make molds as Shangwen said.

A cannon is placed in the middle of the wheel beam, with two protruding copper noses at both ends of the cannon.Gears and other things are added to the tail end of the artillery.These things can adjust the height of the artillery.Plus a simple three-point line aiming method.It constitutes the aiming system of the artillery.Although simple.But it is still not practical.

Shang Wen began to test.Fill the gunpowder first.Then came the projectile.Then plug in the fuse.

"Let go." Shangwen lit the fuse.

"Bang." The huge sound of the artillery sounded.Accompanied by the rushing flames, the shells whizzed out.Hit the well-set mounds in the distance.This time, streamlined shells were used, and the firing range was significantly improved.Shangwen doesn't know the exact distance.But judging from the target hit.It should be much farther than the first artillery shot.

"Okay." King Qin shouted from afar.

Everyone turned their heads and saw King Qin coming.Immediately fell to his knees and saluted.

"Get up, everyone." King Qin waved his hand. "Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone thanked them.
