"That doesn't sound good...Brother Gu, aren't you in a hurry?" Zhang Liang asked with a smile after hearing this.
"What's there to be anxious about?" Gu Xun pinched a piece of dried fruit and stuffed it into his mouth. "There are a full 200,000 border troops in the North. Even if Meng Tian can't mobilize them all, he can at least spare half, plus three more
With ten thousand gold fire cavalry, the wolves will be defeated sooner or later."
Wolves are a problem, but not a big problem yet.
According to the history that Gu Xun knew, its true development should have occurred during the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony and the early Han Dynasty.
During that time, the entire Central Plains was in silence. From the deserts of the Western Regions, to the northern grasslands, to the cold lands of Liaodong, no one had time to take care of it. They allowed the wolves to grow and develop wildly, and eventually evolved into the huge Xiongnu Empire, which in turn
Suppressed the Central Plains Dynasty.
What Meng Tian had to face at this time was a wolf tribe that had only just begun to gain momentum, and at best could be regarded as 'young children' who had just learned to walk.
With the ferocity of the empire's tiger and wolf divisions and Meng Tian's own military prowess, it was only a matter of time before the wolves were defeated and the land of Henan was retaken.
As for what to do next... Just take it one step at a time. Gu Xun doesn't believe that he can completely rise the wolf clan when he is specifically staring at them!
If it doesn't work out, he'll just shoot Mao Dun to death... If he does this, he has to be safer this time and shoot his entire family to death!
"Where are you? How is the situation at Little Sage Village?" Gu Xun asked Zhang Liangdao in turn.
Zhang Liang shook his head, "There's nothing to say."
"The Little Sage Village is a target of public criticism. There is no way to take the initiative to attack. We can only use tactics and tactics to block it... Senior Brother has been mainly copying books with many disciples recently."
Whether it was the unification of writing mentioned by Fusu during his last visit or the book-burning order that would be issued at any time, Fu Nian and the others were forced to back up a large number of books in the library.
Especially those rare and rare copies. If this matter hadn't been hidden, Fu Nian would have copied hundreds of copies and found places to hide them all over the world.
By the way, the reason why the library contains mostly slips and insufficient backup is mainly because paper is expensive.
Another one is that the threshold for copying books is too high, or the threshold for being able to read and write is too high... Of course, the students of Xiaoshengxian Village can definitely achieve this threshold, but there are only a few hundred people in this dignified Confucian holy land.
Being able to do it says it all.
And the engraving on the bamboo slips is even more complicated.
Fu Nian cannot exploit the students of Xiaoshengxian Village without any bottom line, even though copying books can be regarded as a learning process.
The reason why Fu Nian was able to start backing up his book collection on a large scale this time was actually because he had the full support of Liusha.
There is no shortage of paper in quicksand.
Facts have proved that during the two thousand years of China's feudal dynasty, the level of scientific and technological development was generally ups and downs, and there was really not much progress because it was always going backwards.
Although papermaking did not mature with printing until the Tang and Song Dynasties, Gu Xun still developed it in the third century BC.
Of course, he didn't make it, it was the craftsmen he found.
Under the heavy reward, there must be brave men, and the same is true in terms of technology. With the temptation of Gu Xun's large sum of money, and the help of some specious suggestions he provided, the relatively mature papermaking technology came out ahead of schedule.
Just like before, he helped Qi State further optimize its salt production technology.
However, this time, Guxun completely blocked this technology and prevented it from being spread. There was no special reason, just thinking that it might be used later, so it did not plan to promote it for the time being.
When the world is truly stable, it will not be too late to popularize it.
Well... movable type printing was also invented.
It was just the movable type printing in Gu Xun's knowledge. He didn't know how it was different from the one in the Song Dynasty. After all, this thing was only mentioned in history books and was not taught in physics and chemistry students.
Of course, this doesn't matter, as long as it works and is easy to use.
It's just that he hasn't provided printing technology to Xiaoshengxian Village.
Now that the net is being closely watched, it is not appropriate to make too much noise in the Little Sage Village. It is okay for everyone to copy the books. After all, Fusu has made a request before, but making too much noise will easily attract extra attention.
However...it doesn't need to wait too long, Gu Xun will provide further help to Little Saint Xian Village.
Zhao Gao can't stay too long.
The Spring Festival Ceremony did not require his special participation as a eunuch, but he had to accompany Ying Zheng during his eastward tour.
Besides, Sanghai is not very safe for him now - something happened to Fusu, and he is now somewhat afraid that Gu Xun will strangle him to death.
Li Si was gone and there was no one to mediate. He didn't dare to bet on whether Gu Xun would take the bait, and he would definitely have to leave as soon as possible.
"Tell Fu Nian later and tell him not to worry. There will be a surprise for him in a few days."
"Surprise?" A look of curiosity appeared on Zhang Liang's face, "Brother Gu's surprise is really a bit curious."
Zhang Liang had never known much about these technical matters. He only learned about the papermaking technology in Quicksand after Gu Xun provided paper to Xiaoshengxian Village. Naturally, he could not guess that the surprise Gu Xun mentioned was the printing technology.
Fortunately, he had always kept his composure. Although he was curious, he was not in a hurry to ask Gu Xun to translate for him.
"Hey, you'll know when Zhao Gao leaves." Gu Xun didn't reveal it to him now, but only gave an approximate time.
"Speaking of Zhao Gao... Luo Wang's supervision of Little Saint Xian Manor has been gradually weakening recently." Zhang Liang nodded when he heard this, turned over the surprise article for a while, and talked about Luo Wang.
Gu Xun nodded and replied, "Definitely, his manpower has been gathering in Dongjun. In addition, he is about to leave here, so he will definitely leave only the most basic surveillance force."
There must be more people in the trap, much more than the Shadow Guards, or even quicksand, but the stalls for the trap are also large, and even the leader Zhao Gao cannot mobilize all the people.
The snare has long ceased to be the snare of the empire, but at the same time, it is not the snare of Zhao Gao.
"After Zhao Gao leaves, let the quicksand people carefully sift this area of Songhai and remove all the traps."
Gu Xun planned to take the opportunity to clear the Songhai area so that Liusha and Xiaoshengxian Village could cooperate more easily.
"Being so deliberate...will it arouse some suspicion?" Zhang Liang asked a little doubtfully.
"Doubts don't matter, as long as they can't find evidence, it's fine." Gu Xun didn't care about this.
The closer he gets to the Eastern Inspection, and the closer he gets to Songhai, the less Ying Zheng will think about other things.
He's not tampering with the mirage, so it won't be a big problem unless Zhao Gao can find some substantial handle.
But Gu Xun had decided to let Sanghai become Luo Yu's "insulated zone" after Zhao Gao left, until Ying Zheng's eastward patrol came here.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. If there is no one, let's see what you can find!
After Gu Xun said this, Zhang Liang stopped trying to persuade him.
It's not something worth discussing in itself. Since Gu Xun dared to do this, he was confident and there was nothing to say.
