Chapter 801 The general trend of the world will push a technology to change.
In the land of China, it has always been the mainstream to hope that one's son will become a dragon. No matter whether he is an emperor or a famous general, no matter how talented and domineering he is, he cannot escape this disaster.
This is what Meng Tian is like at this moment.
Meng Liao was his eldest son, and it was related to Meng's future. Meng Tian had been extremely concerned about it from the beginning. Ying Gao knew very well that Meng Tian had expressed his gratitude to him more than once.
It was because of Meng Liao that he and Meng Tian had a very harmonious relationship. Although Ying Zheng chose Fusu for Meng Shi, Meng Shi was undoubtedly leaning more towards Ying Gao at this moment.
Ying Gao gave too much favor to the Meng family, even no less than the Wang family. Meng Tian knew in his heart that all these favors were secretly marked with a price.
After all, Wang Jian was Ying Gao's teacher, and they, Mengshi, were not.
…
"The dog has little talent and little knowledge. Being stationed in Liangzhou will only delay the master's important events!" At this moment, Meng Tian looked solemn.
Liangzhou was first established, and it was located on the frontier, bordering on foreign tribes. From what Ying Gao said, this hundred thousand army was still composed of foreign tribesmen. This was too much pressure for Meng Liao.
Various factors accumulate. If you are not careful and one problem is not solved, a big problem will arise. If a link is decoupled, there will be an immediate danger of collapse.
Therefore, Meng Tian was not optimistic about Meng Liao, even if Ma Xing and others were in Liangzhou. After all, there were foreign races outside Liangzhou who were eyeing him.
Hearing this, Ying Gao understood the meaning and worries of Meng Tian's words almost instantly. He smiled at Meng Tian and said: "Above Liangzhou, in addition to Meng Liao, I also left the Python Bird Army.
And Wang Hu."
"After discussing with my father, I will build the Yumen Pass and Yang Pass in Liangzhou, and use Wang Hu to lead the Python Bird Army to lock the two passes to suppress the northwest gate of the Qin Dynasty."
"In this way, the pressure on Meng Liao will be reduced a lot. General, you don't have to worry!"
During the conversation, Ying Gao explained something to Meng Tian. After all, he understood Meng Tian's worries. Pressure is a good thing, but too much pressure will crush a person.
Hearing this, Meng Tian was relieved. He couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and said to Ying Gao: "Young Master is thoughtful and thoughtful, and Meng Tian can't even hope for it!"
Meng Tian is an interesting person.
This man is extremely smart. He may not be as good as Wang Jian in military skills, but his emotional intelligence and emotional intelligence are definitely not inferior to Wang Jian's.
In Ying Gao's view, Meng Tian was far more tactful than Meng Yi, and Meng Tian was more suitable for the civil service career than Meng Yi. It was a pity that Meng only trained Meng Tian to become a commander-in-chief.
As soon as he thought about this, Ying Gao glanced at Meng Tian and said something: "If the general takes the path of civil servants, he will probably become the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty."
Meng Tian smiled modestly and said to Ying Gao: "Young Master Miao Zan, I am just a warrior!"
"Hahaha……"
With a loud laugh, Ying Gao said no more. Some words should be stopped in moderation.
After all, he and Meng Tian are both young and can decide anything that happens to them. Meng Tian's consideration of him has already explained a lot of problems.
…
"drive……"
As the horses galloped, two green mountains hurriedly passed by, and Ying Gao, Meng Tian and his party hurried towards the shogunate.
Three days later, Ying Gao and others finally arrived at the shogunate. At the same time, the craftsmen who came from Xianyang had also arrived at the shogunate.
The army led by Wang Li and others also rushed to the vicinity of the shogunate. For the journey to the extreme south, everything was ready except for the east wind.
"I will pay my respects to the young master!" The craftsmen of Shang Gongfang, headed by Xiang Liyue, bowed to Ying Gao and said.
"We came south from Shang Gongfang, specially to be driven by the young master!"
Hearing this, Ying Gao nodded toward Xiang Liyue and others, and stretched out his hand: "No need to be polite. You all came all the way from Xianyang and it was a hard journey."
"Take a seat!"
After saying that, Ying Gao nodded towards the waiter: "Serve tea and prepare a small banquet!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, the waiter turned and left. At the same time, the craftsmen headed by Xiang Liyue raised their hands towards Ying Gaoyi and said.
"Thank you sir!"
When Prime Minister Li Yue and others took their seats, Ying Gao also raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and he was very surprised by the situation above Bashu.
The person in charge of the Bashu Road in Xianyang is General Meng Tian, and the person in charge of the construction is Gongshu Qing of the Gongshu family.
But now it is Qin Mo's Xiang Liyue who is heading south, and the two enemies collide again.
The waiter served tea to Xiang Liyue and others. After Xiang Liyue and others took a sip, the smile on Ying Gao's face became even brighter.
"Master Xiangli, the imperial court sent a master craftsman south. I wonder how far Shang Gongfang and Shaofu have mastered iron smelting technology?"
Ying Gao knew this matter very well. He knew in his heart that although the Great Qin Dynasty had bronze wares that were like black technology, the wear and tear of the bronze wares was too great, and the money of this era was made of bronze.
It is only a matter of time before bronzeware is eliminated.
However, because the Qin Dynasty wanted to unify the six countries, it was crazy about the development of bronze technology and put iron smelting technology on hold.
This point has only changed since Ying Gao proposed it.
Hearing this, the other craftsmen all looked at Xiangli Yue, and similarly, Meng Tian, Fan Zeng, and Ying Gao also looked at Xiangli Yue.
Because they all know that the breakthrough in iron smelting technology will have a huge impact on the Qin Dynasty. You must know that a huge iron ore vein has been found in Liangzhou.
Now the Great Qin court has begun to gradually mine. Once the iron smelting technology breaks through, the financial crisis of the Great Qin court will be resolved as soon as possible.
Sensing the attention of everyone, Xiang Li raised his hand towards Ying Gaoyi and said: "Master, although Shang Gongfang has made a breakthrough in iron smelting technology, it is far from the level of a bronze sword."
"Nowadays, the craftsmen in Shang Gongfang continue to explore. Because of the needs of the young master, I went south to Bashu."
…
Hearing what Xiang Liyue said, Ying Gao's expression became a little ugly. He knew in his heart that iron smelting technology had only made a small breakthrough.
Otherwise, Xiang Liyue and others would not be so law-abiding. Ying Gao extremely understood these people from various schools of thought.
"It's a good thing to have a breakthrough. Although it's not as good as bronze weapons, it can be used to make agricultural tools and sell them to the people!"
With this thought in mind, Ying Gao continued to the crowd and said: "Now we will use it for civilian use first, and then when the iron smelting technology reaches the standard, we will intervene in the military."
"This time I will call you all to go south, because I plan to apply it for the first time after the breakthrough in iron smelting technology."
"As long as you participate in it, you can break through the various limitations of iron smelting technology step by step, and then achieve a major breakthrough."
"There is a saying that goes well: Without practice, you have no right to speak. As long as you use it, the general trend will promote the development of iron smelting technology."
