Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

Mi Fang was very uneasy today.

He was angrily talking to Guan Lin about the ten sins of the Jiangdong aristocratic families!

Yes...according to the instructions of my third brother, they gave me a lot of unowned land, as well as many houses and shops that originally belonged to the Sun family. But damn, I want to reclaim the wasteland. When I recruited farmers, no one in Jiangdong responded, and no one bought from the shop I opened!

I was also confused, this shouldn't be... We gave a lot, but after asking about it in private, I found out... It's all these wealthy and noble families who are causing trouble. They have united to target me. If I go east, they will definitely go west. , I went west, and they all went east. The people in Jiangdong didn't dare to go against them, so they avoided me one by one... They were bullying people, they were really bullying people!

this…

When Mi Fang chanted his complaint, Guan Lin's eyes narrowed slightly.

He had thought that the clans in Jiangdong were xenophobic and might not cooperate with Mi Fang...maybe they wouldn't hand over the unclaimed land and the Sun family's property.

Guan Lin even thought about how to deal with these.

But... things went surprisingly smoothly on these issues. Guan Lin also thought that these wealthy people were sincerely convinced and did not dare to make any small moves. He never thought... that they would actually embarrass Mi Fang here.

They gave up the land, but controlled the farmers, the business, and jointly suppressed it. This... made the business in charge of Mi Fang difficult to move forward!

——Sure enough, none of these Jiangdong rich families who gave Sun Ce and Sun Quan quite a headache...are fuel-efficient! It is said that one's nature is hard to change, but it has only been a month, and all the fox tails are showing out. 』

Guan Lin sighed secretly in his heart.

Mi Fang's words continued, Also, Yun Qi... you asked me to implement the method of dividing the land into acres and re-measure the acres in Jiangdong like Shuzhong and Jingzhou. Oh my... this is just stirring up a hornet's nest... These wealthy families agreed on the surface. It's refreshing, but it's one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes... There are always subordinates who are always making things difficult for me, not only do they not cooperate, but they also try their best to stop me!

I have also asked Gu Yong and the others, but these clan leaders have their own merits... They are always trying to be careless, and at most they only pretend to punish the servants. But it is still the same when measuring the land... As always, there are people making things difficult!

If it weren't for Yun Qi's numerous instructions, Jiangdong Xinding... asked the second brother and me to try to avoid conflicts. If these people hadn't played a role in the capture of Jiangdong, I... I would have really wanted to draw my sword. ...Whoever dares to stop will be cut down directly... And what you said about setting up a Commerce Department and developing the navigation industry, let these wealthy families take the lead in entering the Commerce Department, manning ships and sailing on oceans... Humph... Are they so happy with their promises? But in fact, alas, let’s not talk about it… It makes me angry and angry when I say it…”

Well…

——Building a business, a business office, a big voyage...

When Mi Fang put forward these terms.

Guan Lin couldn't help but repeat in his mind, if the previous competition for land and business competition were just trivial matters...

Now, the implementation of the Easy Work, the establishment of the Commercial Department and the control of the entire business, the development of the Dahang Era, these... are all important events related to Jiangdong, and even to the development of Shuhan...

In fact, in the final analysis...

Still one question, how to make these clans in Jiangdong work for me instead of causing obstacles for Guan Lin everywhere.

In fact, even though these large clans were weakened to varying degrees during the Jingzhou Army's entry into Jiangdong, they have been entrenched in this land for many years, and they are still a presence that cannot be ignored in terms of financial, human, and resource resources. .

Back then, Sun Ce wanted to suppress and massacre the major clans in a domineering way, but he ended up being the target of public criticism, which did not end well;

Sun Quan used a combination of checks and balances to appease and stabilize the major clans, but in the end he was harmed by them and couldn't help himself...

Based on this, Guan Lin's attitude towards these clans determines the stability and development of Jiangdong to a certain extent.

This is a not easy problem!

Yun Qi, what do you say... what to do? Otherwise... we will kill a few, punish a few tribes, kill chickens to scare the monkeys... In this way, it can be regarded as knocking on the mountain to shock the tiger. I don't believe that the big clans in Jiangdong can still defy the rules!

Mi Fang's voice rose again, and he proposed a violent method.

only…

Guan Lin pointedly pointed out the shortcomings of his method: When Sun Bofu killed Xu Gong in the past, he would not have thought that he would be assassinated by Xu Gong's three disciples while hunting in Dantu Mountain. If the second brother did this, he would not be able to protect himself. …The next one to be assassinated on Dantu Mountain is you and me!”

Then...then let's just do nothing and just be a coward? Mi Fang frowned and opened her mouth angrily. But I can't swallow this breath!

A turtle... Guan Lin grinned and smiled, We can't be turtles, so... Second brother, I know about this matter, please let me handle it... Within one month, I will keep it These Jiangdong clans are all sincerely convinced!

Well…

The certainty of Guan Lin's tone made Mi Fang stunned. He felt... for a month... for such a wealthy family and such things, the third brother is probably talking nonsense, right?

I was about to ask for details, but then I thought about it and it seemed that there was no need to ask...

What did the third brother say? Do you still need to ask?

He told me to wait...then the wait would be over!

When Guan Lin saw that Mi Fang stopped talking, he immediately changed the subject and chatted about family matters, Second brother, tell me something happy. I heard that second brother just took a girl from Jiangdong as his concubine... I haven't told second brother yet Where is Daoxi?

What's the reason for this joy? Mi Fang waved her hand: Aren't the two most beautiful people in Jiangdong still working as housemaids in your house? After all, third brother, you are the most powerful...

Just as we were chatting here, there was a slight crunching sound outside the main hall. After a while, I heard the warrior asking sharply: Who is coming?

I...I am the courier of Xuchang City. I have been ordered by the Second General and General Shiren to rush here seven hundred miles away. I have urgent matters related to Xuchang City...Xuchang City. I need to see Mr. Yunqi immediately.

The messenger's voice has not yet fallen.

Guan Lin's expression condensed. After taking over Jiangdong, he finally met his second brother Mi Fang once. He originally wanted to have a chat with him and talk about the unique charm of this Jiangdong water town woman.

Let's talk about how he should deal with this relationship with Sun Luyu... In Guan Lin's opinion, Mi Fang is someone who has been through it all and will probably have unique insights on women.

But who knew... My father sent me an urgent letter.

Having said that, listening to the messenger's hurried and stumbling tone, I guessed that he didn't stop all the way, and rushed for 700 miles... Then something big must have happened in Xuchang City!

Immediately, Guan Lin said loudly: Let him come in.

After a moment, the messenger hurried in with a solemn face. He bowed to the ground without hesitation, holding up an urgent letter with both hands, Fourth Young Master, Xuchang City is extremely urgent...

Guan Lin took over the urgent matter, unfolded it quickly, and asked impatiently: What happened?

The messenger's face turned pale: In the middle of the night two days ago, Ni Wei launched a flying ball attack on Xuchang City. The entire east city of Xuchang City was shrouded in fire. Both the city walls and houses... were all burned by the fire and reduced to ashes. ruins!

What?

Against Wei? Fly ball? Fire? ruins?

When these keywords are extracted...

This time, not only Guan Lin, but also Mi Fang and Guan Yinping became nervous.

The two asked questions at the same time, and Mi Fang asked: How is General Shiren?

Guan Yinping asked with concern: How is my father?

The messenger continued, Fortunately... General Shiren, in accordance with Master Yunqi's instructions, conducted seven air defense drills in the entire city in ten days... It coincided with the enemy's attack. Zhengzheng's seventh drill, most of the soldiers and civilians, including The two generals, including General Shiren, hid in the air-raid shelters, and there were not many casualties in the city...

But the people on the outskirts of the city had no time to evacuate, and thousands of them were burned to death... Nowadays, the entire city of Xuchang is in panic, and General Shiren originally wanted to counterattack... He also launched an air raid to burn down the city of Luoyang, but was stopped by Mr. Xu and the second general... Now, all the generals in Xuchang City have no idea, so they asked Qi Baili to hurry up and ask Master Yunqi!

this…

Guan Lin's expression was also slightly moved. This news... was reasonable, but unexpected.

It's not that he was worried about the burning of Xuchang City and the deaths of thousands of people outside the city. In fact, in such an emergency, it was a blessing to be able to save most of the soldiers and civilians.

What worries Guan Lin the most is... Cao Wei and Ma Jun can imitate flying balls so fast, and Cao Wei can mass produce them so fast!

This is also what Guan Lin has been most worried about for the past two years.

In fact...except for the flying ball, except for the eight-niu crossbow, except for the repeating crossbow...

Guan Lin also has many manufacturing drawings, and some have even produced a large number of them, such as iron stirrups, wooden saddles, horseshoes...

These so-called three horses can be called time-travel artifacts, right?

But Guan Lin only took out a pair of iron stirrups to Huang Zhong when Huang Zhong went to rescue his father Guan Yu to help him stabilize his fulcrum during riding and shooting.

The reason for doing this is that Guan Lin is worried about Cao Wei's terrible imitation ability.

In his previous life, Guan Lin had read a lot of time-travel novels, and many of the protagonists who traveled through time in ancient times showed off the Three Horses artifact as soon as they came up.

As everyone knows, the ancients were not fools. It only took one battle... to make all parties realize the existence of this artifact, and then quickly promote and imitate it.

Once this happens, there is no doubt that the party with a deeper foundation will benefit greatly!

For another example, the Qin Nu that helped Qin Shihuang unify the world... was not originally made by the Qin State, but by the Koreans!

well…

Thinking of this, all Guan Lin was left with was a deep sigh. The most worrying thing still happened.

Hot air balloon... Ma Jun successfully imitated the hot air balloon. Guan Lin knew this in advance from Li Miao, so that's all...

Cao Wei's rapid mass production was overwhelming and made Guan Lin feel terrified.

His mother-in-law's...

Seeing that Guan Lin was still brooding, Mi Fang roared first: Yun Qi held such a powerful weapon, but he didn't burn his Luoyang City to avoid massacre of the people. Instead, Cao Cao set fire to Xuchang as soon as he imitated it. What is unbearable... This Cao Cao is simply as hateful as those bullshit Jiangdong clans... No, this Cao Cao is even more hateful than these bullshit clans!

Even though it’s a complaint…

But Cao Wei already has a flying ball army, which is an indisputable fact.

Guan Yinping suggested: Fourth brother... Since you invented this flying ball, you certainly know its weaknesses. Why don't you invent another thing... to knock it down? In this way... Ni Wei's flying ball is not worth mentioning. No longer a threat.

Well…

Guan Yinping's words suddenly made Guan Lin speechless, and he suddenly didn't know how to explain it.

Looking at the third sister's clear and stupid eyes, he sighed, It's not that I haven't drawn a design drawing of an ordnance that can shoot down flying balls, it's just... this drawing involves some brand new things, Such as firearms...At least for now, Mr. Huang and Mr. Liu Ye have not made any breakthroughs...

yes…

This is a flying ball. It moves and is in the sky. There are no air defense missiles in this era...

It's so easy to defeat.

Granted, maybe...the arrows fired by the Eight Bull Crossbow are enough to pierce the sphere of the hot air balloon.

But...shooting into the sky, taking into account the gravity and resistance of the earth, and considering the weight of the Eight Bull Crossbow arrows...

How much work does it take to hit a low-flying fly ball?

Not to mention, how long will it take to shoot each crossbow arrow in the face of flying balls all over the sky?

Therefore, it can only be firearms...

It may not necessarily be the muskets, hand cannons, blunderbuss, and artillery of the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, but it must at least be the gunpowder whips and arrows that appeared in the Song Dynasty...

The so-called gunpowder whip and arrow... is made of a new green bamboo with a length of one foot, a diameter of half an inch, and strong elasticity, with a six-foot silk rope tied to the tip as a launching rod.

In addition, a hard and thin bamboo arrowhead about six feet long is used as a whip arrow.

A bamboo skewer is installed in the middle of the arrow shaft, and a gunpowder ball weighing 150 ounces is inserted into the back of the arrowhead.

When launching, use a silk rope to hook the bamboo stick, one person holds the pole, and the other digs the front end. After lighting the gunpowder ball, pull the arrow backward to bend the pole backward, then suddenly let go, using the rebound force of the bamboo pole to bounce the whip arrow towards the target.

Of course, this is against the ground... If it is against the air, it can be slightly improved. It only needs to be sent out mechanically, and the rebound is still used...

It is enough to shoot at the low-flying hot air balloon, and then use the explosion of gunpowder in the air to destroy the sphere of the hot air balloon, causing the entire flying ball army to lose control instantly.

And the most difficult thing among them is firearms...

In later generations...even the traditional festivals New Year and New Year's Eve were not allowed to set off fireworks.

Therefore... Guan Lin only had a partial understanding of firearms, and the manufacturing drawings he gave Huang Chengyan and Liu Ye were semi-finished products at best, which required a lot of bold attempts.

At least... in a recent letter sent from Jiangling City Mianshui Villa, Huang Chengyan and Liu Ye clearly stated that it was very difficult and no breakthrough had been achieved!

Guan Lin was still daydreaming here. Mi Fang and Guan Yinping saw that Guan Lin remained silent. Mi Fang was a little impatient. Things were rushing and they were all put together. He couldn't help but open his mouth: I say, Then Cao Cao is unkind, so don't blame us for being unjust. He let the flying balls slaughter the people? What kind of ethics do we have? Third brother, let me tell you, you can just wave your hand and let your father and our eldest brother lead the flying ball soldiers. Go out on an expedition and burn down the entire city of Luoyang...

No... Upon hearing that Luoyang was burned, Guan Yinping quickly interrupted, The Emperor is still in Luoyang...Cao Cao's people who migrated from the border are mostly in Luoyang. If it is burned...then...

This can't be done, that can't be done... Before Guan Yinping finished speaking, Mi Fang's expression became even more worried, Then if Cao Cao keeps the people with him all the time? Can we just let the mermaids do it? Grandma Te's... life We can't keep it anymore, the city is about to be lost, why do we care about getting so much? According to me, if the emperor and the people... burn it, burn it. When the time comes, let our lord be the emperor, and let your father be the general of the world's soldiers and horses, I With Yun Qi as the third official, this big man has recovered as well! What's the matter...who has been left behind in this world? Can't we just live through it?

this…

Mi Fang's words left Guan Yinping speechless. She felt an indescribable feeling of powerlessness when a scholar meets a soldier.

That's when.

Guan Lin opened his mouth, It's urgent, we need time...

Time? Guan Yinping and Mi Fang said in unison.

As I just mentioned, it's not that we don't have a way to crack this flying ball... Guan Lin said seriously: It's just... we didn't consider these before, and the focus of Mianshui Villa is not here, so we Now we need time, we need to break through some methods and methods...to shoot down this flying ball!

Speaking of this, Guan Lin's tone became more solemn, This flying ball is not invincible. Even if it is an artifact, it will have weaknesses! Now that something has happened, let's face him and use some methods to delay until we overcome this. problem…

Third brother? How do you plan to take off your clothes?

Of course I have a way! Guan Lin squinted... At this time, he thought of four people. In fact, these four people wanted to do two things.

On one side are Lingju and Li Miao from Luoyang City. They are crucial to whether they can delay time.

On the other side are Huang Chengyan and Liu Ye... time waits for no one!

Just then...

Well…

Guan Lin suddenly thought of something, yes...how could he forget someone? Maybe...based on the half-finished drawings provided by Guan Lin, no, not maybe, based on the drawings...she would definitely be able to figure it out before Huang Chengyan and Liu Ye So-called “firearms”…

Create the Gunpowder Whip Arrow, the nemesis of the Hot Air Balloon!

Yes, if it were her, it would definitely be possible!

…

…

Chengdu, General Zuo's Mansion.

The improvement of Fazheng's condition lifted the spirits of everyone in Shuzhong.

Of course, some are happy and some are worried!

But these are not important. What is important is... Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have begun to discuss the possibility of taking Hanzhong.

There is one thing...even though it is a trivial detail, it is something that I am very concerned about.

Zhuge Liang waving his feather fan lightly while pondering softly.

Liu Bei stretched out his hand and said, Kong Ming just said it doesn't matter...

It's the God of War! Zhuge Liang's voice was not loud, but every word was deliberately paused, as if he was emphasizing, Before, whether it was the Sanba War or the Xiabian War, Yide They are all strategizing under the instructions of the God of War compiled by Yun Qi, and fighting to determine the outcome... But only, in the subsequent story of God of War, as far as I know... there is no mention of how to capture Hanzhong, but only Teach the three generals how to carry out agriculture and develop production in the Sanba area...Although Liang has never believed in the words of strange forces and gods, both the three generals and the God of War have performed too dazzlingly before...I'm worried...

Zhuge Liang didn't finish what he said, but the meaning was clear.

After Liu Bei heard this, he pondered deeply for a moment, and then nodded heavily... Perhaps this is not because Yun Qi predicted that the Battle of Hanzhong will be unfavorable, but to guide us not to use Yide as our commander... to fight the Battle of Hanzhong...

I thought so too... Zhuge Liang nodded, Then among the generals who have requested tassels, the only ones left are General Huang Zhong, General Zhao Zilong, General Wei Yan, and General Liu Feng... I wonder if my lord has noticed that it seems that all the original officials in Shu are... I quite support General Liu Feng... When it comes to selecting commanders, General Liu Feng is quite vocal!

Kong Ming, in fact... not only Feng'er has been quite active recently, but Adou... is also very active, but... between the two of them, among the courtiers, one is the sky and the other is the earth. Feng'er's momentum is How big it is, and how bad Adou's reputation is... If it weren't for Kong Ming who repeatedly advised me to wait and see, I'm afraid I would have to see what happened and severely punish Adou, the traitor!

Liu Bei's voice was a little helpless, and his tone was full of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

Zhuge Liang quickly consoled him: But Adou slaughtered the cow to make that invulnerable soft armor...

He didn't just slaughter cows! Liu Bei opened his mouth weakly: Five thousand farmers were forced to become tenant farmers by him, and their farmland was forcibly occupied by Adou. This is contrary to what we promote, and it goes against the grain...

Don't worry, my lord, you might as well wait and see... Zhuge Liang comforted as always, In the past, Guan Yun Banner in Jingzhou was often called a traitor by Yun Chang? But now... we have captured Jiangdong, why can't the former traitor make great achievements? Woolen cloth?

Oh... I hope so... Liu Bei still sighed, Even if Adou can catch up to 10% of Yun Qi's level, your and my hard work will not be in vain!

at this time…

Slight footsteps sounded outside the study door of General Zuo's Mansion.

who is it?

Liu Bei asked...

Zhao Yun, the chief steward of General Zuo's Mansion outside the door, quickly replied: It was sent by Mrs. Huang from the General's Mansion... She said she was here to deliver medicine. You need to see with your own eyes that Military Advisor Zhuge takes the medicine on time!

medicine?

Liu Bei was a little surprised.

When he mentioned medicine, he subconsciously thought of illness, but during this period, he didn't hear that Zhuge Liang was sick?

He quickly asked with concern: Kong Ming... Xiaozhi's soldiers are a lesson learned from the past. If you have anything, you must tell me... Don't be too tired. The big man can't live without you, and I can't live without you...

Lord... Zhuge Liang heard what Liu Bei meant and quickly explained: I don't have any illness, it's just...

Zhuge Liang knew...this medicine is to nourish the liver and kidneys, treat yin deficiency, and is also for getting a child!

Huang Yueying told him about this in advance...

In the past few days, Zhuge Liang also took medicine on time and never stopped.

But suddenly, when such a mysterious topic came to his lips, Zhuge Liang suddenly found it difficult to speak. He quickly changed his words and said, It's just that my wife saw that I was tired and asked the female disciple of Zhongjing Divine Doctor from Jingzhou to prescribe some soothing medicine for me. Madam is also very persistent in taking the medicine. She sends her confidant maid to deliver it to me on time every day, and personally supervises me to take it... I never thought that this time someone would be sent to General Zuo’s Mansion.

Liu Bei let out a long breath, feeling relieved.

Since it's to calm the nerves, let the maid bring him here. Kong Ming has indeed worked too hard during this period...

Mentioning this... Liu Bei suddenly thought of something. Kong Ming, I heard recently that Mrs. Huang seems to be making a dangerous artifact? Is this possible...

What do you mean, Lord? Zhuge Liang had no idea what the lady was doing recently.

Liu Bei pondered for a moment, I also heard what my servants said. The day before yesterday, the backyard of your military advisor general's residence suddenly caught fire. Yesterday...still in your military advisor general's residence, a building suddenly collapsed after a huge noise...According to nearby People say that the sound is like thunder...it can almost make the ears faint!

this…

Speaking of which, Zhuge Liang often went back to his mansion, but it was on fire, making loud noises, and collapsing. He...he had no idea at all.

At this time, the maid outside the door had brought Liuwei Dihuang Pills and the newly brewed Yupingfeng Oral Liquid and handed them to Zhuge Liang's ear skillfully.

Zhuge Liang looked at the dark pills and the dark potion, and then thought of what Liu Bei had just said...

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.

——It seems that Madam has been quite busy during this period...

——Just, that loud noise? on fire? Collapsed? What is it again? 』
