The capital of the Dacheng Dynasty was located in the most prosperous central area of the Central Plains, where the land was fertile, the products were rich, the commerce and trade were developed, and the population was dense.

It is the most prosperous place in the world.

The capital of Dacheng was named Shengjing, which means Tongsheng. It covered an area of 80 square kilometers, which was nearly the size of seven successive cities. This shows how powerful Dacheng’s national power was.

Looking down from the city wall, you can see that the layout of the houses is orderly, there are countless merchants, and the streets are bustling, with no end in sight.。

“Freshly baked cakes!”

“The price of rice has gone up today, 11 cents per dou!”

“……”

A bustling scene.

The sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly sounded, and a herald galloped until he ran all the way outside the palace, handed over the urgent report on his body, and shouted: “Eight hundred miles of urgent report!” No one was allowed to take the urgent report

. He immediately sent it to the palace until the urgent report came into the hands of Emperor Dacheng, who opened the urgent report.

The first thing you see is eight big characters.

There are changes in the frontier, and the city changes hands!

See this.

Emperor Dacheng’s face darkened slightly, and then he ordered: “Summon the civil and military officials immediately, I have important matters to discuss!”

“only! ”

When the civil and military officials came to see them, Emperor Dacheng showed them the urgent report in his hand and said: “There have been changes on the border, and Jicheng has been captured.。”

“What? ! ”

The ministers’ expressions changed with shock. They hurriedly read the contents of the emergency report carefully, exclaiming repeatedly that it was absolutely impossible and could not believe what was written above.。

“Hundreds of people captured Jicheng? How can this be!”

“The successor king died, and none of the successor ministers survived.……”

“Who is this guy? Where did these eight hundred people come from? ”

After the officials discussed for a while,

the emperor just spoke。

“My dear friends, Jicheng is a strategic location and it is related to the balance between Dacheng and Beishuo. Once the balance is broken, a war will be inevitable.。”

“What does your majesty mean?”

“Your Majesty, if we really want to fight, what should our Dacheng soldiers have to fear? The

emperor was silent for a moment, and when all the officials were quiet, he said: “Twenty years ago, Dacheng fought against Beishuo, and he still has not recovered his strength. I must understand that the soldiers of Dacheng are extremely brave. However, when the battle begins, Dacheng will be defeated.” The vitality Cheng has restored over the past 20 years may be destroyed in one day.。”

“……”

All officials understood what the emperor meant.

They failed to fight Beishuo more than 20 years ago. If they fight again today, 20 years later, they may still not be able to achieve much results.

War together.

It will only hurt both sides。

“Your Majesty, the people of Beishuo have always been coveting the rich land of the Central Plains, and they are determined to destroy Dacheng. If this is what they are planning behind the scenes,……”

“That makes sense.

The emperor immediately looked at the person who spoke and said: “Shen Aiqing, among all the officials, you are the only one with a clear heart like a mirror. I think it is you who must be sent as an envoy to the city! ” ”

The city changed hands, and Dacheng had to find out the attitude of the new city lord. However, this new city lord was really low-key and mysterious, and the spies were not able to learn the face and identity of the man. Shen Zhaoxin secretly cried out that he was unlucky, but he could only accept the order

.。

“Sir, take your orders! ”

The rest of the officials secretly chuckled in their hearts. Fortunately, they didn’t talk too much. The emperor was waiting here. The emperor

ordered again: “Order the border military towns to be more vigilant. Before Jicheng’s attitude is clear, be ready to send troops to the border at any time. Prepare!”

“Your majesty is wise! ”

The reaction was no different from that of Dacheng.

Beishuo was also worried that the situation had changed. As soon as he learned of the matter, he quickly appointed an envoy to Jicheng and brought a large gift to find out the attitude of the new owner of

When Jicheng When the news about the change of ownership spread, the people in the border areas were naturally the first to learn about it. They were amazed at the new city lord and led 800 people to attack Jicheng. It took less than an hour to completely defeat Jicheng, and the battle continued

. Thousands of defenders in the city had no power to fight back. Such bravery and bravery were truly a miracle from heaven!

Someone in the restaurant swore that。

“You have not seen the scene that day, but I have seen it with my own eyes. The power of those eight hundred people is far beyond your imagination, and they can actually control thunder and fire!”

“It’s like a magic trick that no one can match. The defeat of Jicheng’s defenders was no accident. If you don’t believe it, go to Jicheng. No, it’s outside Xin’an City and take a look!”

“Those two arrow towers were riddled with holes by thunder and fire! Someone asked curiously: ”

Those eight hundred people are already so powerful, isn’t the city lord of Xin’an City even more of a god?” Have you ever seen what it looks like?”

“Of course, that man was eight feet tall, with arms reaching to his knees, a face as black as coal, holding a square-shaped halberd, and could spit out the power of thunder and fire when he opened his mouth.……”

For a period of time after Xin’an City resumed normal operations, few caravans dared to come, but as time went by, the city once again returned to prosperity.

The wages of avarice is death.

Seeing how peaceful and stable the city was, the merchants quickly returned to conduct business transactions.

After arranging the affairs of Xin’an City, Lu Ming ordered people to bring him some loess and clay. Almost all materials were available in Xin’an City.

Just in time to continue unlocking the technology tree。

Invisible power emerges.

Shape the loess and clay in front of you into a cube shape, then quickly heat it and fire it until the brick is completely hardened and formed.

when!

The bricks fell to the ground, still emitting heat。

【Architecture · Cement · Unlocked】

Cement is the most important binding material in modern construction. Without the birth of cement, there would be no tall buildings on the earth.

Its durability and practicality are unparalleled, and it is extremely cheap to build.

There are just a few basic raw materials.

Limestone, clay, iron ore powder.

These raw materials are mixed together in a certain proportion, ground into powder and then calcined at high temperature to make cement.

Not long after.

The raw materials for cement were placed in front of Lu Ming。

Very quickly.

A pile of gray powdery cement that exuded warmth appeared in front of Lu Ming. The cement was made and the technology behind it continued to be unlocked.。

The raw material of glass is also very common, which is sand.。

After a piece of glass is fired, the unlocking of the technology tree stops abruptly. After that, the technology will completely enter the industrial age. The unlocking condition is that Lu Ming needs to complete primary education for the people in the territory of his influence.

When Lu Ming launched literacy education in Xin’an Town, he later unlocked the educational branches of elementary mathematics, elementary physics, elementary chemistry, and elementary biology.

These are extremely important branches.

If he wants to enter the industrial age, Lu Ming must improve the knowledge level of the civilians in the territory, otherwise he alone will never be able to support the production needs of the industrial age.

Burn bricks.

Burn cement.

Burnt glass.

Produce food.

Produce sugar.

Make gunpowder.

Make guns and cannons.

The further it develops, the greater the production demands involved. If Lu Ming does not build a factory for assembly line production, he will be withdrawn from these production affairs.

Then he will definitely be exhausted until he dies. Even if he keeps triggering the technology tree all day long, his production speed will definitely have a limit, and the development of his territory will be limited to his personal production limit.
