“Yes, it’s weapons. Hasn’t the Han army begun to replace them with new weapons?”

“Why don’t you sell these replaced old weapons to the State of Wu and give them back to the big man in exchange for more money and food?”

 Nanxiang produces coal, and Nanzheng has the largest iron ore mine in Hanzhong.

 Due to improvements in smelting technology, the quality of weapons produced by Hanzhong Metallurgical Industry has been greatly improved compared to the first year of Jianxing.

  In the Battle of Xiaoguan, the soldiers who protected the Qiang Xiaowei Mansion proved the superiority of the new weapons in actual combat.

 Take the Huanshou Sword, the most common weapon in the army.

 The styles of the infantry's sword and the light cavalry's saber are quite different.

And the ring-shou sword used to protect the Qiang Xiaowei Mansion is different from the old-fashioned ring-shou sword from the past.

 Not to mention the improvement in the quality of new weapons.

 In the past, the Huanshou swords in the hands of ordinary soldiers were mostly made of thick iron.

 Now, due to the emergence of coking coal and the improvement of blowers and water drainage, the new ring-shou knife is equivalent to starting from thirty smelting.

 For middle-level officers, that is fifty refinements.

 Senior generals, each armed with a hundred-refined sword.

After the Battle of Xiaoguan, the Han army began to systematically eliminate old weapons and replace them with standard weapons made in Hanyang.

 Coupled with the policy of elite soldiers and military force implemented by the Prime Minister in recent years.

It can be said that in the next Battle of Guanzhong between Wei and Han, what the Wei thieves will face is an elite Han army that is completely different from the one in the Battle of Longyou.

 The manufacturing bureau led by Amei, after completing the first generation of Hanyang manufacturing standards, began to study and formulate the second generation of standards.

  Part of the eliminated weapons have been used to arm the Hu Yi and form a Yi Cong Army to fight with the Han army.

 But before the battle of Longyou, the Han Dynasty had more than 100,000 troops.

During the Battle of Longyou, many weapons were captured from Wei thieves.

 Coupled with the inventory of the arsenal, etc., the number of obsolete old weapons is not a small amount.

 If we really want to give them all to the barbarians, Governor Feng may not be able to sleep well at night.

  Let’s go back and remake it... The cost is really a bit high for the technology of this era.

 It is better to sell it, not only to make money, but also to consolidate the alliance with Wu State and gain a good reputation.

Of course, what Wu Guo will do with this weapon is beyond the control of the Han Dynasty, right?

And when the state of Wu had weapons, it had excess iron to forge the eight-oxen plow.

This is a win-win situation, and you can achieve multiple things with one stone.

 Hearing Governor Feng's plan, even Adou looked strangely in his eyes.

 At any rate, he was the emperor of Han Dynasty, so Adou still knew some things.

I could only hear him reminding me:

“Well, Mingwen, I remember that there seems to be a shortage of food in Jingzhou of Wu State. Where can they get the money and food to exchange weapons with us?”

Although in the early years, because of the lack of food in Jingzhou, Lu Xun wrote to Sun Quan and suggested encouraging the generals in the army to expand their fields in Jingzhou.

The policy is a good policy, but people who can’t stand it have more ideas.



 After all, growing sugar cane is more profitable than growing grain.

Of course, a certain country fellow said that this was entirely due to the normal adjustment of the market and had nothing to do with his intention to increase the price of jaggery in the past few years.

 As for the return of brown sugar after selling jaggery, that is an industry rule and no one can find fault with it.

"Your Majesty, Jingzhou is short of food, but we have food! Jiangzhou is directly connected to Jingzhou, and it is also a grain-producing land. Just sell some grain from Jiangzhou to them."

Feng Jishi said solemnly, "Since the two countries of Han and Wu are fighting against thieves together, they should help each other."

The little fat man still didn't turn around and said subconsciously: "But Liangzhou..."

"Over there in Liangzhou, as long as there is Yuexi's food, it will be enough! In two years, we will be self-sufficient."

 Feng Yong said quickly.

Yuexun, Jiangzhou, and Hanzhong are all grain-producing areas.

What’s more important is that now the aristocratic families in Shu have been brought under control, and the fertile plains in the middle of Shu will finally become a grain-producing area controlled by the Han Dynasty.

 Having Dongfeng Express’s transportation guarantee, are you still worried that it won’t be shipped?

Although the Han Dynasty is not very rich in food now, as long as Guanzhong is captured, the Han Dynasty will have two kingdoms of abundance.

 Things like devaluing the grain and hurting the people will happen even if it is impossible to predict.

 This is a concrete manifestation of the changes in production relations caused by the increase in productivity.

 So it is necessary to prepare in advance.

 Zhang Xingcai’s eyes were shining brightly, and he gently held Adou’s hand under the case to stop the emperor from continuing to speak.

She asked instead:

“Then according to what is clearly stated in the text, it would be best for the Wu State to exchange coarse sugar for our weapons, right or wrong?”

Governor Feng nodded:

“What the Queen said is absolutely true. If we directly asked Wu to grow sugar cane, I don’t think they would still have concerns.”

“But if we let them exchange jaggery for weapons, and we can also sell them grain so that they have no worries, then it will be done!”

 With the information explosion in later generations, there are still people who are constantly trying to break through the red lines of cultivated land.

There are even some well-known figures who openly advocate abandoning red lines and opening up food imports.

Let alone the Wu State in this era, even if someone can see through it, it is still a question whether Sun Quan has the ability to prevent the Jingzhou family from growing food and sugar cane.

 Zhang Xingcai couldn't help but cheered:

“The clear policy is really brilliant! Even if Guan Zhong is reincarnated, it will be nothing more than this!”

 “The Queen is so complimentary!”

Feng Jishi said humbly.

This is not because he is smart, but because he never dares to underestimate the greed of capital.

 At all times and in all countries, the nature of capital has never changed at all.

 Zhang Xingcai shook his head with a smile on his face:

“The Han Dynasty has good ministers and generals like Ming Wen, so why worry about it?”

 Speaking, the Empress of the Han Dynasty glanced at the palace attendants standing around with her phoenix eyes, and her face turned cold and stern:

“Today’s discussion between your Majesty and the princes is a secret of the country. If anyone dares to leak even a single sentence, he will be punished! The three tribes will be demoted and their status will be degraded, and they will never be able to do good deeds!”

All the people in the palace turned pale with fright, and they all fell to the ground: "No!"

Then the queen turned to Governor Feng again, with a smile on her face, and asked softly:

“What do you think about clearly stating the policy and discussion with His Majesty this time? Why not write it down in a book and send it to the Prime Minister’s Mansion to ask the Prime Minister’s father for his opinion?”

"It all depends on the emperor, ahem, it all depends on His Majesty."

Feng Jishi said quickly.

 The queen seemed to be talking to herself, and also seemed to be discussing with Governor Feng:

“It’s just that this matter is of great importance. If we can establish a mutual market in Yong’an and coordinate and manage the Wu Guoyi market...”

 Damn it, Adou saved the galaxy in his last life?

　　Liu Bei's eyes were extremely vicious even when choosing his daughter-in-law.
