When Su Zhenting saw Li Chen running faster than a rabbit, he was still too embarrassed to catch up.
But Li Chen's words just now pointed him to another path.
He is also very clear that the biggest factor restricting the production of muskets and Daqin Divine Thunder is the shortage of labor. As long as the labor problem is solved, the production capacity will inevitably be greatly improved. And just now His Highness said that the muskets produced with the extra production capacity
, will be given priority to the troops that provide craftsmen!
Even Su Zhenting couldn't help but get excited when he thought of the mighty and majestic appearance of Great Qin's army in the future, each equipped with a musket.

Thousands of miles away, there is the crescent pass.
On the low ridge that stretches for thousands of miles, a city wall extends from the end where heaven and earth meet to the other end, and in the middle of the city wall is the world-famous Crescent Gate.
This city is extremely majestic. After decades of continuous construction by the Qin Empire, the thickness of the city wall alone is sixty-nine feet, which is more than twenty meters when converted into meters. Its width encompasses the entire Crescent Pass.
The city spans nearly eighty miles in length and breadth.
The amount of material and financial resources consumed to build this city is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Even the Qin Empire was absolutely unable to build such a majestic world pass.
Although the cost was outrageous and it almost exhausted the entire power of the Qin Empire, the strategic significance of the Crescent Pass was extremely important.
Its existence blocked the most powerful decades of the Liao Kingdom, allowing the emperor of the Liao Kingdom to be vigorous and invincible from his prime to his twilight years, spanning thousands of miles across the grassland, but in the end he was still blocked outside this majestic pass and had no choice but to
inch forward.
Thousands of years of blood feud have made this great pass destined to witness countless killings and bloodshed from the moment the first brick was laid.
It is no exaggeration to say that the loess under the Crescent Pass is extremely fertile because buried beneath it are the bones of countless soldiers from Qin and Liao over the past decades.
Since the Crescent Pass was built, there has been almost no truce.
Even in the winter when the nomads were at their most sluggish, the Liao Kingdom would send small groups of troops to harass, raid border passes, and plunder surrounding villages.
In the past half month, Crescent Pass has been a small battle every three days and a big battle every five days. Under the pressure of 600,000 cavalry, all the soldiers have no chance to rest.
Yellow sand filled the sky, and the shouts of killing filled the air like boiling water.
Outside the city wall, the Liao troops attacking the city were as densely packed as ants. The crowds were crowded, mixed with the neighing of war horses and shouts of killing, and stretched with no end in sight.
The Liao Kingdom was a country that grew up on horseback. What they were best at was cavalry warfare in large plains and deep areas, but this did not mean that they did not know how to attack cities.
Having been blocked by the Crescent Pass for decades, the Liao army had accumulated rich experience in sieges, even if it cost lives.
Countless soldiers rushed under the city wall one after another. The city wall at Crescent Pass was eight feet and twenty-four meters high. But at this moment, under the piles of countless corpses of Liao soldiers and stones used to defend the city, they were forced to pile up under the city wall.
Height of three to four meters.
There is only twenty meters left, which is enough for the siege ladder to reach the highest point of the city wall.
As long as you set up a siege ladder, soldiers will immediately gather together. With knives in their mouths and eyes as fierce as prairie wolves, they will desperately climb up the ladder.
