At the same moment when Wang Chang and Lu Yu met, Kan Ze had already completed his visit to General Hussar and returned to Youwen Division. He issued several orders. On the one hand, he pretended that there were thieves murdering merchants and those who were greedy for money and life.
In order to investigate the case, the thieves strictly investigated the passing of various inns and stations. On the other hand, the thieves deployed manpower on various traffic arteries in Chang'an Lingyi to cooperate with inspections day and night.
They even took advantage of the convenience of the Five Directions God Taoist Temple to send some "Taoist priests" to the surrounding rural villages to investigate. Although there is a high probability that these spies and spies will not hide in these villages, but what if? After all,
A village is not like a county town. There are a few unfamiliar faces in the village and it is easy to detect. Even if it is the next generation, Chaoyang's aunt is still one of the top world-class counter-intelligence agencies.
When all this work was completed, Kan Ze left Youwen Division and went directly to Xuanwu Lake.
After being informed by the guards on duty at Xuanwu Lake, Ma Jun quickly came out to greet Kan Ze.
As he walked inside, Kan Ze observed silently. He found that Xuanwu Pond was said to be a large factory, but it was also more like a large military camp. There were sentries patrolling the surrounding area, and there were many sentry towers with sentries holding crossbows.
If you want to attack here directly, without hundreds or thousands of people, you may not be able to get in at all. And if hundreds of armed people are quietly gathered in Chang'an City, I am afraid that including Kan Ze
Many people need to raise their heads to apologize.
When he arrived at the living room, Ma Jun asked Kan Ze to sit down, and then said, "I wonder what Kan Ze has to do with me?"
Kan Ze's external claim is still the professional title he holds at Shangshutai.
Kan Ze raised his hand, took out the Fei Qian warrant from his sleeve and handed it to Ma Jun.
"Ah?" Ma Jun was stunned, "There is... there is a spy who wants to..."
Kan Ze made a silent gesture.
Ma Jun took a breath, then nodded, looking a little uneasy... He is just a craftsman, he is not good at other things, but if it is true that a spy appeared here and stole the technology,
So as the person in charge of Xuanwu Pond, you have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.
"How about we go take a look at the model first?" Kan Ze said.
Ma Jun nodded, then stood up, led Kan Ze out of the living room, and walked to the workshop at the back. After passing two sentries and entering the workshop area, Ma Jun pointed to a house on the left and said
, "The battleship model is here... uh, the blueprints are also here..."
"Put the model and drawings together?" Kan Ze frowned.
Ma Jun nodded, then took the lead and walked ahead. After opening a house, he was faced with a huge warship model...
"..." Kan Ze raised his eyebrows, a little dumbfounded, "This..."
This ship model was somewhat beyond Kan Ze's expectation.
Kan Ze thought that the ship model should be like some of the house models he had seen before. It was at most a few feet square, and then it was wrapped in cloth and could be carried by one person. However, after seeing the ship model, he
What he found was completely different from what he originally expected!
This ship model almost spans the entire room, is as tall as a person, is placed on a wooden frame, and the sails almost reach the roof...
Such a big thing, let alone taking it away, I'm afraid I can't even get out of the house without taking it apart.
Kan Ze walked around the large model, smiled, and said frankly, "This is different from what I originally imagined..."
Ma Jun laughed, then took Kan Ze a few steps to the side, took out a few keys from his waist, picked out one of them, and opened the lock on the cabinet, "There is another one in here." ...Well, the drawings are here too...』
Kan Ze's eyes moved slightly.
Inside the cabinet, prominently located on the top floor is a small battleship model originally envisioned by Kan Ze. Compared with the big guy in the room, it can be called a ship model. There are only three of them. One palm is long and one palm is high. Of course, this height is to ignore the masts.
Under this small ship model, in a grid, are rolls of drawings stacked up. On each roll of drawings, there is a number.
"So many?" Kan Ze turned around and looked at the large model of the ship in the room, "Are these drawings of this ship?"
Ma Jun looked at the rolls of drawings, with a look in his eyes that was similar to that of a shit shoveler who saw a child. He stretched out his hand and lightly brushed the drawings, and his voice became softer unconsciously, "Yes." Yes, they are all...these are all..."
Kan Ze did not move to look through the drawings.
Ma Jun locked the cabinet again, and the two of them left the house where the models were stored and returned to the living room.
"How?" Ma Jun asked, "I mean...how does Kan Zhi feel about this...safety?"
Kan Ze took a breath and did not speak immediately.
Ma Jun's face turned a little pale, "Kan Engagement means... relatively bad?"
Kan Ze nodded silently, and then said: "Sorry...I can only speak frankly about my responsibilities...Although it is said that before entering, you have to pass through two sentries, but neither of the two sentries strictly checked the procedures...Secondly, I Seeing that the houses are all made of wood, and so are the cabinets, maybe we just need a fire... and..."
Every time Kan Ze said something, Ma Jun's face turned pale. Then maybe he felt a little embarrassed on his face, or maybe he was not willing to accept such remarks, so he smiled awkwardly, "Well, it's not that bad, right?"
"And..." Kan Ze did not stop talking because of Ma Jun's mood, but continued, "In the future, Ma Dazuo will build more ships and study different categories. Ship models and drawings will only There are more and more, and when the time comes, there will be no space in a cabinet... Is it safe to just lock it inside the cabinet?"
"This..." Ma Jun murmured for a while. Although he was still a little unhappy, he had to admit that what Kan Ze said made sense. What's more, the order from General Fei Qian of the Hussars also indicated that Kan Ze was responsible for this matter, so in the end it was Asked, "Then Kan's opinion is..."
Kan Ze looked at Ma Jun and was even more sure that this guy was just a completely technical official. He didn't understand what flexibility was, let alone strategy. Most of the time, such people would suffer. Because if Kan Ze
Don't say anything, just make some laughs and leave, which will not make Ma Jun feel uncomfortable. When problems arise, will Kan Ze have more problems, or will Ma Jun bear more responsibility?
Kan Ze pointed out Ma Jun's negligence. If Ma Jun understood the way of being an official, even if he was unhappy at the moment, he would have to show an open-minded attitude of acceptance and express his gratitude to Kan Ze. Otherwise,
Who will take the initiative to remind me next time?
Kan Ze looked at Ma Jun and said, "Ma Dazuo, do you know that Huang's workshop has made many new models of crossbows?"
Ma Jun nodded strangely. He didn't understand why Kan Ze said that for a moment.
Under the rule of General Hussar, in addition to the development of warships here in Xuanwu Pond, there was also the development of other military equipment, armor, etc. In addition, there was also the production and research of gunpowder and other matters, and not only these military
The above things include the improvement of tools, fertilizer classification, seed cultivation, etc. in agriculture, the making of utensils, weaving and spinning, spice processing, etc. in the field of engineering, and the art of digging mountains, building bridges, building materials, etc. in engineering...
…
Every time he thinks about this, Kan Ze feels that he has a heavy responsibility.
Although it was said that when General Fei Qian of the Cavalry met him, he laughed at the short-sightedness of these spies, and used this to relieve Kan Ze's pressure, saying that even if the models and drawings were stolen, it was not a big deal, let alone
The important thing is to use this incident to "train troops"...
That's right, that's what the Hussars General said, saying that Youwensi is like a newly recruited recruit. He must go through certain training and actual combat before he can slowly grow into a qualified "soldier".
But even if Qiao Qi is magnanimous and relieves the pressure on Kan Ze, Kan Ze still doesn't want to say that with this name, he can go about his life with an indifferent attitude, and he just thinks that since he has to do it
, it must be done well.
However, while General Fei Qianqian was decompressing Kanze, he also pointed out that in Chang'an, especially in the period before and during the Qinglong Temple Debate, there were definitely not only spies from Jiangdong, but also spies from Jiangdong.
There are people on Cao Cao's side. At the same time, the goals of the two sides may not be the same, but they may collude to act together, or use the other party's actions to cover up their own actions.
Therefore, in the current situation, Kan Ze not only needs to find people, but also prevents destruction. More importantly, he needs to use this opportunity to accumulate experience...
Kan Ze felt that the Cavalry General Fei Qian actually had a larger and more far-reaching consideration, and it was not just to deal with the present. As for this further plan, Kan Ze only had a faint idea, and did not
Unable to formulate a specific idea.
Kan Ze looked at Ma Jun and said in a deep voice: "The crossbow machine also has models and drawings... As far as I know, the models and drawings of these crossbow machines are all stored in stone chambers with antiseptic and dry things inside and outside.
It is heavily guarded, and entry and exit require the presence and signature of the chief official, the masterpiece, and the applicant before it can be opened..."
Some people once talked about Fei Qian's nepotism and letting his father-in-law Huang Chengyan serve as the chief examiner. However, Kan Ze believes that fortunately after Huang Chengyan became the chief examiner, many of the management in Huang's workshop gradually became standardized and complete.
stand up.
For example, all kinds of drawings and formulas belonging to Huang's workshop were stored in various places before, just like here in Ma Jun. However, since the big examination engineer Huang Chengyan took office, they have been gradually organized and now they are divided into three.
In addition to the copy that was originally kept in place, there is an additional copy that is archived in the Hussar General's Mansion, and the other one is archived by the university examiner, so that even if there is a problem on that side, it can be easily found.
Backup.
Of course, this also means that more manpower must be allocated for prevention and care, but Kan Ze believes that the extra manpower is worth the cost. Just like Kan Ze's suggestion to Ma Jun at the moment, which is to immediately build a separate stone chamber.
It is used to store these important models and drawings. In addition, two copies are immediately made and sent to the Grand Examiner and the Cavalry General's Mansion.
There was no backup before. On the one hand, Ma Jun was not born under the Huang family. On the other hand, Huang Chengyan was busy sorting out the Huang family's line some time ago. There was no information about Ma Jun and other craftsmen.
Chasing so closely...
But things are different now.
Ma Jun was stunned for a while, nodded in agreement, and said he would follow Kan Ze's suggestion and do it immediately.
"Besides..." Seeing that Ma Jun was somewhat sensible, Kan Ze whispered at the end, "Someone has a plan... If it is feasible, there is no telling if Ma Jun will be able to achieve great success..."
……┐(?~?)┌……
The northern desert, thousands of miles away from Chang'an, also ushered in chaos.
Amid the chaos, something changed.
Perhaps after a thousand years, historians will continue to study what happened at this point in time, which will make the entire northern desert region suddenly like boiling water, puffing and spewing...
However, in such a chaotic situation, the Hu people and herdsmen living in the grassland and desert cannot understand or even imagine this change, let alone understand the impact this change has brought to them.
chain reactions, and ecological transformation in the future.
In the territory of Jiankun State.
In fact, these places are not subordinated in the strict sense, and there is no absolute loyalty. Today, when people from the Jiankun Kingdom come, these herdsmen will express their allegiance to Jiankun. Then if the Xianbei people come, or in later generations,
If the Turks become stronger, these people will show that they are also part of the new force and offer cattle and sheep...
This is their way of survival.
A herdsman's child was awakened by the noisy noise outside the tent. He rubbed his eyes and got out of the tent. He found that the sky was not completely bright and was still a little dark.
After waiting for the mother at home to light the cooking campfire, smoke gradually began to appear from several surrounding tents. The entire meadow seemed to be completely awake at this moment.
The white disasters and black disasters in the desert have caused endless panic, and this panic has also infected the children of these herdsmen, who are often hungry. Fortunately, although their stomachs are often empty, their relatives are still around, and they are always around.
These shepherds also enjoyed themselves in spite of their hardships, playing the morin fiddle and hobuzi, and their melodious songs would also sound in the meadows at sunset.
As the sun gradually rose, some of the remaining cattle and sheep began to stand up and gathered at the fence, waiting for the shepherd to let them out. The two slightly clumsy little hunting dogs chased for a while next to the big dog.
, and for a while they threw themselves into a ball, and even tried to get the big dog to participate in their game...
But the big dog pricked its ears, looked into the distance, and then barked loudly, as if it felt something.
The barking of dogs became louder and louder, attracting the attention of many people. People stopped what they were doing and looked in that direction.
This is the envoy from Jiankun State...
But this time it was not just as simple as moving a few cattle and sheep, but loudly announcing an important event to the tribe's herdsmen.
"Migrate?!"
"Leaving Yehe?"
Hearing the news, all the herdsmen were stunned, and their heads were buzzing. Although they migrated frequently, they had never strayed far from this river, and they didn't even know the specific location. There was only one
general direction.
This is the place where they were born, this is the land where they grew up, this is the place where they have lived for generations...
Migrate?
They don't want to migrate.
However, the first person to express resistance was quickly shot to the ground by the Jiankun people. Those who cried were severely whipped. The men were ordered to dismantle their tents and load them into cars, while the women held their hands in fear.
The children helped on the side, while the elderly and half-grown children were responsible for sorting and pulling the cattle and sheep...
Under the supervision of the Jiankun people, these shepherds embarked on a road that led them to an unknown future.
Subsequently, more and more people gathered together, and more and more Jiankun cavalry were watching the migration of these herdsmen. Every time these herdsmen looked back with nostalgia, their whips were whipped in the air, but even
In this way, there were still people who kept looking back secretly, willing to take the risk of being whipped and want to take one more look at their Ye He.
One step forward is one step away, until the land where they were born and raised is no longer visible.
Where are they going and what is waiting for them tomorrow?
Will the gods on the mountain and the gods in the lake, and those ancestral graves made of stones, still meet each other in this lifetime?
They staggered away from Yehe River and gradually headed south.
At night, they gathered around the bonfire. Matouqin and Hobuzi talked about their separation sorrows and also revealed their uneasiness.
A herdsman girl sang the beginning, and soon more people joined in, and hundreds of people sang leisurely under the sky.
They sang about cows and sheep, about lone wolves, about moonlight, about rivers...
The young Jiankun frowned and wanted to stop him, but was stopped by the older Jiankun.
Population, to some extent, represents power.
As the Jiankun Kingdom gradually shifts its focus to the south, it is impossible to leave these scattered herdsmen in the north. On the one hand, it is too far away to manage and it is too troublesome. On the other hand, the royal family of Jiankun also needs manpower to replace them.
Work, build the royal city, operate the caravan, etc.
Originally, Xianbei's territory was too large, and the further north you went, the more serious the damage was. Even if you want to restore the original ecology, it is not an easy task. It is better to move all the scattered herdsmen who remain in the north to the south.
!
At the same time, many North Desert Hu people have surrendered to the Han people during this period. There are remnants of Xianbei and Ding Ling. As the Jiankun people who cooperated with the Han people earlier, they also need fighting strength to maintain their second-class status.
, otherwise once they are overwhelmed by these remnants, wouldn’t the previous advantage be wasted?
What the Jiankun people don't know is that in the desert, besides their operations, there is another party who also has some thoughts...
