The waiter was a little surprised: "Zanpu wants to find him? But this envoy seems to have just turned twenty, this..."

Dusong Mangbuji shook his head: "Don't look at the age, the Great Zhou court is the most rigid, and it is very difficult for them to get promoted. Intentionally or not, at least he has this ability, not to mention that Jiaozhou is much closer to us than Luoyang."

The road to Luoyang was strictly guarded by Qinling. It was difficult for him to send letters to Dazhou, not to mention that even if he sent letters, he might not care about them. As for the governor of Jiaozhou... Du Songmangbuji was not sure if the other party would help, but the enemy of the enemy Even if they are friends, even temporary friends are fine, as long as they can get Qin Ling down!

Dusong Mangbuji is a man of action, he has reached this point, if he does not act, he will only wait for death!

Although Qinling said that the governor of Jiaozhou was a serious problem, the focus was still on the Western Regions.

The interests involved in the Western Regions are too great to give up easily. Moreover, if you want to kill a Marquis from a neighboring country, he is still a very favored Marquis. This requires a long-term plan. It is not easy for him to kill his immediate boss. , I have been working hard for almost 20 years and have not done it, so this is even more difficult.

But these things don't require him to do it himself, as long as the order is given, someone will naturally think of a way.

Dusong Mangbuji made many inquiries, and finally found out part of Qinling's plan, and wrote it in the letter. He didn't have much bargaining chips to pay. In order to get Jiaozhou to help, he directly offered his sincerity first.

Qinling probably didn't expect that Dusong Mangbuji would find a way to contact Jiaozhou. There are not many things that a small governor can influence on national affairs.

So this letter was actually delivered to Luo Shixing. When Luo Shixing received the letter, he was a little surprised. He suspected that someone was impersonating him. After the people below asked the messenger many times, he confirmed that it was indeed the letter from Tubo Zanpu. Take it apart and take a look.

After reading it, Luo Shixing immediately called Li Youdao and others over and said anxiously: "Quickly, go to Beidai County to increase troops, Tubo, no, Meng She ordered to send troops to Beidai County."

Li Youdao was taken aback: "What? Where did the news come from? Is it reliable?" No matter how you think about this news, it's a bit impossible. Meng Shezhao has been seriously injured since the father-son infighting designed by Luo Shixing. In recent years, he has been honest. No, why did you suddenly go crazy again?

Luo Shixing directly sent Dusong Mangbuji's letter for circulation and said: "It's a letter from Tubo Zanpu, which said that Tubo's Dalun Qinling sent people to the Lao tribe and Mengshezhao. I don't know what they did. But before Cheng Jingwei guessed that the Lao tribe was trying to contain our troops, and the real danger might be Beidai County, but now it really does."

Pei Xingben was very cautious: "Tubo Zanpu? Dusong Mangbuji? Why did he write to you?"

Luo Shixing said: "Because he was going to be forced to death by Qinling, he wanted to ask for help, but he couldn't get in touch with the imperial court. Occasionally, he heard Qinling say that I was the confidant of Tubo, so he probably felt that the enemy's enemy is a friend. , anyway, he probably grasps any hope now.”

After Luo Shixing finished speaking, he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. He was a confidant who was hand-picked by Tubo Dalun Qinling. He is famous abroad. Qinling was so angry that he directly used two countries to deal with Jiaozhou. It sounds a bit petty. Stimulate.

Wang Xuan's complexion changed and he said, "But...if we increase the number of troops, I'm afraid that there will be problems with the defense of all counties, and the coastal defense line..."

Luo Shixing thought for a while and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll write a letter to Yongzhou. They are relatively close to us, and they won't be attacked. Let's borrow some soldiers and don't need them to pay for food and grass."

At this time, everyone remembered, yes, their little lynx is now the envoy of the Lingnan Economic Strategy, and has the right to mobilize all the troops in the Lingnan territory.

However, Luo Shixing did not dare to adjust too much. Although he knew that the other three states were not worth being attacked, what if?If Qinling sees that Jiaozhou cannot be defeated and turns around to fight other states, will he save or not?

If you don't save the opponent, you can directly invade the Central Plains from there, but if you save the opponent, you won't have enough troops.

Luo Shixing couldn't even ask the imperial court for help, because most of the imperial court's troops were in the Western Regions, so they couldn't spare any more.

He really sighed while writing the order, Wei Siwen comforted him and said: "We still have some ammunition in our hands, don't worry."

Luo Shixing looked up at him and said, "But we can't use it casually."

They are different from the Western Regions. There are many mountains here. What if the bombing goes too far and the mountains are blown down?There is a piece of Gobi in the Western Regions, so I don't worry about it at all.

Wei Siwen was also a little helpless: "This is the only way to go now."

Luo Shixing pondered for a while. It would be much easier if they had gunpowder guns in their hands. As long as they aim, even if they miss the shot, it won't be very powerful. There is no need to worry about affecting the mountain.

But it is definitely too late now, so I can only find a way in other aspects, such as modifying the arrows of bows and hand crossbows.

After Luo Shixing sent the letter, he immediately called the person in charge of the gunpowder department. This person himself is very outstanding in investigating things, and because of his outstanding, he is more stubborn as a man and an official. It was not because he was exiled to Lingnan He really committed a crime, mainly by offending people.

Now there are quite a few people like this in Jiaozhou. After Luo Shixing called him over, he told him about the idea of ​​gunpowder and arrows, and then asked, "Is it possible?"

The man was stunned for a moment, thought carefully for a while and said: "It's not easy to fill the inside of the arrow, but you can make a device on the shaft behind the arrow and install it, but one more device will increase the weight of the arrow. I still need to adapt, now...will it be too late?"

Luo Shixing sighed: "That can't be helped, who would want Tubo to go crazy suddenly."

Since he said he could do it, then he would do it. Luo Shixing directly gathered all the blacksmiths in his manor to make special arrows.

There was no way, the munitions factory had been working day and night. Recently, the craftsmen in the factory had been working in three shifts, and each of them was ashamed. Luo Shixing could only give them better food and more money.

But even so, the people in the munitions factory are all grateful to Dade.

After Luo Shixing gave these instructions, Li Youdao suddenly came back and asked, "Where did you put the letter that Tubo Zanpu gave you?"

He was slightly taken aback, and clicked on the desk: "It's right here."

Li Youdao said decisively: "Write a memorial to the imperial court, write down the cause and effect of the matter, and send the letter by the way."

Luo Shixing slapped his head: "I was negligent."

They have had such a hard time in Jiaozhou, even if they don’t ask the imperial court for money, they still have to cry, let the imperial court know that it is not easy for them now, silent dedication is the worst thing, it would be better if the imperial court can reduce the tax a little up.

After all, under such circumstances, Luo Shixing could not guarantee that the grain output would be the same as before.

Luo Shixing hastily wrote a memorial and sent it to the court, and at the same time attached the letter.

After his memorial arrived at the imperial court, the three provinces immediately attached great importance to it, and brought it up at the court meeting, and sent Tubo Zanpu's letter to it by the way.

Almost everyone heard that Tubo arranged for the Lao tribe and Mengshe to interfere with Jiaozhou in order to cut off their arms supply.

Everyone is very worried, because the previous few contact battles went smoothly, almost everyone believes that the victory of this war is a matter of time, and those important towns in the Western Regions will return to the embrace of the Great Zhou.

But the premise of all this is that the arms factory in Jiaozhou is safe enough.

At this time, I couldn't help but someone repeated the old saying that they hoped to move the military fire factory to the hinterland of the Central Plains, because it was safer here.

After hearing this, Wu Chengsi asked directly: "Where are you going to move? Even if His Majesty agrees, how long will it take you to build it? You must know that Jiaozhou was built in less than a year. Production will start in a little more time, and even the road will be repaired in the process, can you do it?"

Crowd: ...

Who would dare to answer those words? The construction in Jiaozhou was indeed too fast. Everyone wondered if there were so many arms factories already there, so Luo Shixing simply took advantage of this time to report.

But the problem is that from the selection of the site to the start of the construction of the factory, the imperial court sent people there to see the factory being established with their own eyes.

I have to say that the construction speed is really fast, and they can't guarantee it.

So the question is, how did Jiaozhou do it so fast?Could there be some secret weapon?

If Luo Shixing knew their doubts, he would definitely say: "There is no secret weapon, as long as you have an experienced construction team."

There is a huge gap between the skilled and the novice in the infrastructure construction team. In later generations, the florists ranked first in the world in infrastructure construction because there were many infrastructure projects and the teams were more skilled. The foreign teams were not as good as the florists.

Wu Zhao didn't want to move the arms factory at all, because Luo Shixing said in the memorial that he was developing new weapons again.

Well, although it's just an improved arrow, the difference in power is still new!

The ability to update weapons just because of this can't be changed.

You must know that Wu Zhao's previous idea was to bring down the Western Regions, and not let the throat of the Silk Road fall into the hands of Tubo. If Dazhou is blocked, it will lose the channel of communication with the outside world little by little, which is not a good thing.

But now, Wu Zhao has begun to think about whether he can directly defeat Tubo.

So she ignored this proposal at all, and just asked, "Is there anything else?"

Someone from Yushitai stood up helplessly and said: "Your Majesty, the governor of Guangzhou sued Lingnan Jinglue to communicate with foreign countries and had contacts with Tubo Zanpu."

Crowd: ...
