Daqin: Check in at the beginning of 18 and ask Zulong to abdicate

"So quickly, so much steel has been made into weapons!"

Before Ying Zigao could speak, Yu Huatian couldn't help saying in surprise!

The weapon official said seriously: "Master Prime Minister, all of them have been forged into weapons! They are all mounted on these carriages!"

Hearing this, not only Yuhuatian, but all the people present, ministers, officials, craftsmen, and guards, couldn't help being shocked!
None of them could believe that in such a short amount of time, nearly 2000 jin of fine steel could all be forged into weapons!

Ying Zigao smiled confidently, and then said: "Unload the box from the car, open it, I want to take a good look!"

The weapon officer hurriedly agreed, and took the entourage with him.A large wooden box was unloaded from the cart.

Then he untied the rope on the box.

Open the lid of the box, and a variety of shiny weapons will immediately appear in front of everyone!
Long sword, long dagger, ring head knife, beryllium, halberd, and Wu hook, Shu, and other ceremonial weapons are complete in variety!
Every weapon is well-made, uniform in shape and size, and the sharp blade shines with dazzling metal light under the sun!

People can feel Lingling's murderous aura at first sight!
The boxes at the back were still full of feathered arrows!

The arrowheads of Feather Arrow are all made of King Kong. The sharp arrowheads exude the cold light of metal and are full of murderous aura!
"This weapon is really good!" Ying Zigao's eyes lit up when he saw so many excellent weapons!
Then he picked up a long sword and swung it violently!

Exquisite swordsmanship makes this long sword dance like a tiger!
"Good swordsmanship!" Liu Bowen couldn't help admiring loudly!
"Your Majesty, what a good sword technique!" Yu Huatian couldn't help but said loudly.

Seeing so many excellent weapons in front of them, the guards present are even more bright!
The eyes of these elite soldiers have already revealed eager gazes, wishing they could hold these weapons in their hands immediately.

"Distribute these weapons to the guards, soldiers of the guard of honor!"

Ying Zigao also saw the eager eyes of the officers and soldiers, couldn't help but smiled, and said loudly!

"The general understands!" The guard officer hurriedly agreed loudly, and gathered the guards and guard of honor officers and soldiers, and quickly completed the change of clothes!
Looking at the guards who were all equipped with pure steel weapons, Ying Zigao couldn't help being very satisfied!

The guards and soldiers became even more excited!
One by one, they straightened their bodies, opened their eyes wide, and stood in the queue energetically!
Looking at the guards' helmets are still bronze, and the metal plates on the armor are still bronze.Ying Zigao felt that there was a fly in the ointment.

It was immediately decided to invent European-style plate armor.Fully replace all kinds of leather armor now, Zhajia!
The armor of the Qin Dynasty is not only complicated in craftsmanship, but also expensive, and it consumes even more labor.The protective effect is also very unsatisfactory!

The cost of a pair of armor used by ordinary soldiers reached 1344 yuan, which is equivalent to two or three yuan of gold!
With such a high cost, the armor equipment rate of the Qin Dynasty army was less than one-third!

In other words, a full two-thirds of Daqin's soldiers can only fight without protection!
Now with advanced steel production technology.With the advanced water conservancy metal processing technology, it is time to invent the plate armor, so that the Qin army will be fully equipped with iron plate armor within a few years!

At this moment, Yuhuatian's voice sounded!
"Your Majesty, what should I do with the bronze weapon I replaced?"

Looking at the bronze weapons replaced by the guards, Yu Huatian's eyes lit up.I can't wait to melt these weapons immediately and make copper coins and put them on the market!

"Send all the replaced bronze weapons to the household department, melt them down and cast them into copper coins!"

Looking at Yuhuatian's eyes, Ying Zigao couldn't help but smiled, and then said loudly.

"Your Majesty is holy!" Yu Huatian couldn't help becoming excited when he heard this, and hurriedly agreed loudly.

Immediately, he gave orders to the officials of the Ministry of Industry: "What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and collect these bronze weapons for me, transport them to the Ministry of Industry, and quickly melt them to make money!"

The officials of the Ministry of Industry hurriedly agreed and hurriedly arranged.

Soon, all the bronze weapons were pulled away with a cart.

"You need to step up the production of weapons, especially the production of ring-shoulders, spears, halberds and bows and arrows!"

Ying Zigao then gave serious orders to the officials in charge: "I have decided to change the weapons of all the soldiers of the Qin Army, and replace all the bronze weapons in the army with weapons made of fine steel!

Whether this matter can be completed as soon as possible is up to you! "

"Wei Chen understands!"

The official in charge hurriedly said loudly!

"In the production process, we must pay attention to digging out practical technical talents from craftsmen!"

Ying Zigao then urged: "A talent like Song Gao can play a big role!"

"My minister obeys the order!" The official in charge said hastily!

"The iron smelting workshop was successfully completed and put into operation. I am very satisfied with the output and technical level. It has also met the requirements of the court and met the needs of the court!"

Ying Zigao immediately said with a serious face: "Officials at all levels involved in the construction management, officials, craftsmen, have made a lot of contributions and made a lot of credit!
I will reward you well! "

Hearing this, the officials present, petty officials and craftsmen couldn't help but get excited.

They raised their heads one by one, looking at Ying Zigao excitedly!
"All officials involved in construction management will be promoted!"

Ying Zi Gao said loudly: "The petty officials will each be rewarded with 100 qian, and those with outstanding performance will be selected as officials! The craftsmen will be rewarded with [-] qian per person, once they have five buckets of millet!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The official Xiaoli and the craftsmen became very excited at once, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said loudly!
"Do things well, and if you make achievements, I will not hesitate to reward you!"

Ying Zi said loudly!
It was dusk at this time.Shadow Gao, with Yu Huatian's reminder, ended his inspection work and rushed back to the palace with the team.

As soon as he returned to the palace, Ying Zigao summoned Yuhuatian, Liu Bowen and the ministers from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs.

"You have also seen today, the efficiency of the government-run large-scale smelting workshop!"

Looking at the ministers in front of him, Ying Zigao said seriously: "The scale is large, the technology is advanced, the output and quality are much higher than the previous workshops, and the cost is also greatly reduced!"

"Your Majesty, I have seen it with my own eyes. This government-run workshop is indeed very advanced!"

Yu Huatian immediately said: "Wei Chen suggested that we must vigorously build such a large-scale government-run workshop in a place with rich coal and iron resources, convenient transportation and water power!"

"Your Majesty, I think so too!"

Liu Bowen also said hastily.
