Three Kingdoms: Unlimited Premium Gift Pack

"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the ancient papermaking technique. A simple papermaking workshop is also included!"

In this era, of course, there is papermaking.

70 years ago, Cai Lun, an eunuch of the Han Dynasty, made "Caihou Paper".

However, having said that, Cai Lun's papermaking skills are very incomplete.Not only is the price very high, but the quality is very average.

In fact, paper is still a complete luxury now, and even the official documents of the imperial court are still mostly bamboo slips.

It can be seen from this that the system rewards Liu Yan's ancient papermaking technique, so that Liu Yan can produce cheap paper, how awesome it is.

Before the advent of cheap enough paper, the so-called "learned and rich five carts" people just read five carts of bamboo slips.How much text can five carts of bamboo slips carry? 20 words, I'm overwhelmed!

And with cheap paper, a book can contain 20 words!

How much improvement is this?

There is no doubt that the emergence of cheap paper means that the cost of disseminating knowledge is dozens of times lower than before!

It means that the number of people who read is dozens of times more than before!

It means the birth of a new era!

And the pioneer of this new era is Liu Yan!

In addition, the system now rewards Liu Yan's papermaking skills, which has a particularly important practical significance——

Let the people of the 36 countries in the Western Regions, not just the nobles in the Western Regions, learn Chinese characters.

What is learning Chinese alone?Language is very easy to become a dialect, which hinders communication.A unified text is the way to long-term stability.

It turned out that Liu Yan wanted to promote Chinese characters among the people of the Western Regions.However, without enough cheap paper, it is completely impossible to fully promote Chinese characters in the Western Regions.

Well now, Liu Yan has papermaking technology and a simple factory for papermaking technology.

Everything will come naturally!

"very good!"

Liu Yan was very satisfied with the pacification of the Western Regions gift bag, and ordered: "System, open it for me again, and occupy Malacanda City to achieve the gift bag!"

Chapter 126 The Empress Dowager's Sister, Twenty-Eight Years Old

Ding dong!Congratulations to the host, open the Guishuang surrender gift bag, and get the catapult manufacturing technique!There are [-] small catapults, [-] medium catapults and [-] large catapults. "

The biggest function of the catapult is to attack the city.

Liu Yan now has the Meteorite Spear, do he still need a catapult?

Nonsense, of course it is needed!

The reason is very simple, Liu Yan's status is getting higher and higher, so he can't do it himself every time he sieges a city, right?

That's too cheap!

And the most important thing is that the Meteorite Spear has limitations, so it is of course no problem to use it to sweep these bumpkins in the Western Regions.However, when encountering a truly powerful country, it is very likely that it will not work.

For example, a big man, a real general who is good at defending, can't just rely on the two city gates for defense.When necessary, they can use bricks to completely block the city gate.

In this way, the Meteorite Spear would not have much effect.

And a powerful enough catapult does not have the disadvantage of the meteorite spear at all, and is an out-and-out siege weapon.

To what extent can the power of the catapult reach?

Look at the "Hui? Hui Pao" that the Mongols broke Xiangyang City, and you will understand.

Back? Back cannons can throw a maximum of [-] catties of boulders, and the weight of boulders thrown generally is also more than [-] catties.

"The machine is fired, the sound shakes the heaven and the earth, and everything it hits is destroyed, and it penetrates seven feet into the ground!"

Such power is truly terrifying!

Moreover, the Xiangyang Cannon has an extremely long range, and can get more than three miles!

Such a long distance, such a heavy stone bullet, what kind of strong city can bear it?

At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Mongols besieged Xiangyang City for more than ten years.In the end, it was this powerful catapult that captured Xiangyang.

Obviously, Liu Yan obtained the catapult manufacturing technique and was able to manufacture Xiangyang cannons.Its significance cannot be overstated in any way.

"Open it again for me, Guishuang surrenders and achieves the gift bag!"

"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained two tons of chili, cumin, nutmeg, pepper, and prickly ash seeds each! They exist in the system space, and the host can claim them at any time."

"Ding dong! Friendly reminder: These seeds are special varieties specially prepared by the system, and can be planted and grown normally in Xiliang."

Finally willing to give seeds, this is good!

Before the decisive battle in Jinyang, Liu Yan opened a monthly gift package, and once opened five tons of dried chili, five tons of cumin, five tons of Chinese prickly ash, five tons of pepper, and five tons of nutmeg.

Liu Yan used these seasonings to treat meat, which greatly enhanced the morale of the whole army.

I don't know how many sergeants can't forget the meal before the battle of Jinyang.

I don't know how many Xiliang officials, after hearing about the miraculous meal, begged Liu Yan for these spices, and brought them back to their families to try.

Even when Liu Yan married the Zou family in Wuwei, they used some spices as betrothal gifts, which made the Zou family very satisfied.

However, these things are in powder form and can only be used for seasoning, but not for planting.

It's gone when it's used up.

Dozens of tons of spices, say more or less, how can they stand up to such a toss?There really isn't much left now.

Finally, now, the system rewards seeds.

Seeds that can be planted in Xiliang!

These spices, from now on, can be endless in Xiliang.

Moreover, the significance of these spices to Liu Yan is far from simply boosting morale.

After conquering the Western Regions and making Guishuang bow his head, the trade between Dahan, Tianzhu and Anxi has been completely unimpeded.Even Rome can trade directly with the Han through the port of Guishuang.

In this way, these spices can definitely become the fist commodity exported by Xiliang.

You know, in this era, these spices are worth more than gold.

Liu Yan found another way to make money!

Xiliang is one step closer to the most prosperous and prosperous place in the world!

"The last gift bag, completely open the Silk Road gift bag, what can I get out? System, open it!"

"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the ancient printing technique, and you will get a simple engraving printing workshop and a movable type printing workshop as a gift!"

The system is really powerful!

After rewarding papermaking, one of the four great inventions of China, printing, one of the four great inventions of China, was also rewarded.

Moreover, a simple workshop is also attached, so that Liu Yan can use it immediately!

This not only enabled Liu Yan to quickly promote Chinese in the Western Regions, but also increased the number of scholars in the world on a large scale. It also had a special practical significance for Liu Yan—to deal with the unclear queen mother in Luoyang.

The original Liu Yan, who was far away in Xiliang, could only be deterred by military power, so that the Queen Mother did not dare to act rashly.

Even, he had to "self-defile" the way, so that the queen mother had no suitable reason to conscript him into the big quagmire of Luoyang.

But now, Liu Yan has a new weapon - public opinion!

That's right, public opinion!

After mastering papermaking and movable type printing.To some extent, Liu Yan can control public opinion.

Completely subduing the 36 countries in the Western Regions, Guishuang surrendered, coupled with the big killer of public opinion, Liu Yan will definitely be able to give the Queen Mother of Bingguo a big surprise!

……

Another month later, Luoyang City, Changqiu Palace.

sternly-

The sound of the piano is bursting, and the fragrance is faint.

Two beautiful women, holding black and white, are playing chess in front of the chessboard.

The woman on the left looks to be about 25 or [-] years old, graceful and poised.

The only fly in the ointment is the slight meanness inadvertently revealed in the eyes.

The woman on the right is about sixteen or seventeen years old, and her face is roughly similar to the woman on the left, with a beautiful appearance and bright eyes.

Not only does it not have the harsh look of the woman on the left, but it is a little more lively and playful.

The woman on the left is the actual ruler of the Han Empire today, Dou Miao, the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty.

That's right, she is Dou Miao.

She is the third queen of the first emperor Liu Zhi, and can be called the continuation of the continuation.

Liu Zhi was only 35 years old when he died, how old was Dou Miaoneng?That is, 25 and six years old.

As for the beauty on the right, it is naturally Dou Miao's younger sister Dou Chan.

If Dou Chan and Liu Yan were not of the same age, and if Dou Chan had such a beautiful face, Dou Miao would not have used her younger sister to lure Liu Yan into the bait.

"Whee!"

Suddenly, Dou Chan chuckled lightly, dropped a white piece on the chessboard, and said, "Sister, you lost! You lost another 100 taels of gold to me!"

"If you lose, you lose!" Empress Dowager Dou Miao didn't care about winning or losing the chess game, she was just killing time, and said, "Come on, let's play another game."

"No more, no more. I care about the 100 taels of gold, but my sister doesn't care at all. It's boring." Dou Chan put away the chess pieces and asked, "My sister has been absent-minded in playing chess today. But do you have something on your mind?"

"There is indeed something on my mind."

"What's on your mind? Can you tell Chan'er?"

"It's okay to tell you, it's for Liu Yan." Dou Miao said flatly.

"Huh? Liu Yan?"

When the little beauty Dou Chan heard this name, her heart moved and she exclaimed!

Chapter 127 An Unprecedented Victory, The Shocked Queen Mother

My sister must hate Liu Yan to the bone, right? Dou Miao comforted, "He would rather risk the disapproval of the world to marry Zou's daughter than marry you. It is a great shame to my sister."However, sister, don't worry, Liu Yan will not have a good day for a few days. "

Actually... I don't hate Liu Yan at all!

Dou Chan thought to herself: I remember the first time I heard Liu Yan's name, it was when he trained for the Jingyang Regiment, defeated Qi Dongqiang, and won the great victory in Shegu Mountain.

Since then, Liu Yan has become a great hero in the hearts of Luoyang people, and also a great hero in my heart.

Later, he pacified Xiliang for another three months, won the victory in Jinyang with 50 yuan and [-] yuan, and chased and killed Xianbei Lord Tan Shihuai for thousands of miles.

Which thing can't be done by a great hero and a good man?

Sister, do you know that I have been inquiring about all kinds of news about Liu Yan.Do you know how happy I was when I heard that Liu Yan was about the same age as me.

Do you know how excited I was when I heard that you were going to marry me to him!

Do you know how shocked and painful I was when I heard my father say that you were going to use me as a bait to lure Liu Yan into Luoyang to kill him, and how much I hoped that he would reject this marriage.

Later, Liu Yan announced that he would marry Zou's daughter.My heart was like a huge boulder falling to the ground, full of relief, how could I hate him?

Of course, it would be wrong to say that there is no hatred at all.

I just hate...hate myself and Liu Yan, a great hero who is indomitable in the sky, have a destiny...no share!

Of course, Dou Chan Bingxue is smart, even though she thinks so, she can never say it directly to her mean and ungrateful sister.

"Don't talk about me." Dou Chan changed the subject and said, "Sister, what were you thinking about Liu Yan just now?"

Dou Miao said: "Sister doesn't know yet. Three months ago, on the day of Liu Yan's wedding, he suddenly led 36 soldiers from the Jingyang camp to the Western Regions, intending to wipe out the [-] countries in the Western Regions."

"Ah! Did he succeed?"

"Success? How is that possible?" Dou Miao sneered, "The Western Regions are full of Gobi deserts, so logistical supplies are very difficult. When Emperor Wu of the Han conquered a Dawan, they lost nearly [-] troops.

Now Liu Yan, relying on thousands of soldiers and horses, wants to destroy the 36 countries, which is simply a daydream.I see him.After beheading Tan Shihuai's head, he was arrogant and arrogant, and he didn't know how much he weighed! "

"Sister, what do you mean... Liu Yan is likely to fail?"
