Although I have better and more advanced technology in my hand, I have never used it.
Before, the territory was not stable, and the strength was not enough to ensure the peaceful development of one's own power, so he could only play the edge.
But now, Liu Qi has been traveling through time for a year and a half.
The originally ruined body has recovered more than seven levels at this time.
Not only did the originally shaky Jiangxia County completely stabilize, but it also seized the four counties in Jingnan and Cangwu County.
In terms of civil power and military power alone, it can be regarded as a powerful prince!
At this time, it is nothing to come up with higher and more advanced smelting technology.
The current war model is still in the process of cold weapons and close connections. Although the quality of the weapons cannot influence the end of a war, it may change the outcome of a war.
It's strange to say that the world is obviously a high-level world, but the technology in metal smelting is similar to that in normal historical periods.
At this time, iron tools have all replaced bronze tools that have developed to the peak level.
But ironware is naturally one level worse than steelware!
In this era, steelmaking is still a traditional model, and the most famous one is Steelmaking.
With the power of blacksmiths in this world, it is not difficult to refine refined steel in hundreds of ways, and the output is not small, but it is naturally a slight witch compared to industrial production.
Those who can afford to use steelmaking as weapon materials are at least at the level of the army's captain. As for lower-level officers and ordinary soldiers, it is already quite good to have iron weapons.
What Liu Qi made was just a small-scale steelmaking furnace. Although the production was exaggerated in this era, it was a backward production capacity that had long been eliminated in modern times.
He didn't do much, but just built a small coal industrial base in a suitable secret place.
These do not involve martial arts and some mysterious extraordinary powers, so there is no need to worry about causing a strong rebound from the peak powerhouses in this world.
But that's the case, Jiangxia's actions of changing clothes in full swing also attracted the attention of his neighbor Liu Bei's army. He also privately collected a batch of weapons, which shocked Liu Bei and even had some thoughts that shouldn't have.
Zhuge Liang did not think that Liu Bei was unkind and righteous, and that no heroes who survived the chaotic times in the late Han Dynasty were really kind and righteous.
However, Liu Bei wanted to inquire about Jiang Xiajun's steel smelting base, which made him a bit of a foul on the cross-line.
Once it is noticed by Jiang Xia, it is likely to affect the close relationship between the two families.

However, Zhuge Liang understood Liu Bei's shocked mood and was not easy to persuade him for a while, so he had to agree first and wait until Liu Bei calmed down before persuading him.
Of course, the Jiangxia army quietly created a large number of steel ordnances and fine iron farm tools, which was quite remarkable, and Zhuge Liang did not ignore it.
We always have to figure out how Jiangxia did it. It is naturally best if it can be transplanted to Xiangyang.
Even if we cannot get the greatest benefit, at least we will ask Jiangxia to help the Xiangyang army to change clothes in full.
Zhuge Liang had a headache. He was a little sensitive now. He noticed that Liu Qi, the eldest son, was a little strange. It seemed that he had performed a little too well since he was in Jiangxia.
Liu Bei quickly regained his calmness. He held a banquet at home that night and asked Zhuge Liang to attend the banquet alone. He took back his previous orders in an understatement and asked Zhuge Liang about his opinion on Jiangxia.
What can Zhuge Liang have?
In order to appease Liu Bei's uneasiness, he could only bite the bullet and say that when the time was right, he planned to go to Jiangxia in person to see what was going on.
If possible, communicate with the eldest son Liu Qi in private. If the two families are in harmony, they will have a profit and a loss. It is better not to have any problems.
Liu Bei nodded in agreement. He had nothing to say about this, but he felt that Jiang Xia always showed unexpected results. Is the development momentum a little too rapid?
By the way, why do Xiangyang and Nanjun under his control feel that their development momentum is far inferior to that of Jiangxia? I don’t know what is going on?
In front of Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei carefully expressed his depression. He would never say these words in front of others, even Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, two sworn brothers.
Too bad morale...
Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang first used normal power to investigate, but the result was no effect.
The small steel industrial base in Jiangxia County is hidden quite well.
It seems that it does not require much labor, so Zhuge Liang is very surprised.
"No need to spend time investigating, just ask Liu Qi!"
At this time, Liu Bei was very open-minded and smiled and said, "If you want to hide it, Liu Qi would not let Jiang Xiajun change his clothes completely!"
"Using this past style of conduct, it is obvious that the steel manufacturing workshop controlled by Jiang Xia is quite complete, and he is not worried about external investigations at all!"
"The relationship between our two families is there. As long as he wants to continue to maintain it, he will naturally not hide our information!"
Zhuge Liang said curiously: "Lord, if Jiang Xia mastered the mature steel forging technology, his strength would be in a state of rapid progress!"
"With the population and territory controlled by the Jiangxia army, you can recruit more than 500,000 troops at will. There is no need to continue to alliance with us, right?"
The Liu family's royal family is not a good person...
"Kong Ming doesn't need to underestimate himself, our strength is not bad!"
Liu Bei chuckled indifferently, with confidence on his face, and said leisurely: "Besides, Liu Ziyu's behavior is not the kind of temperament that can be fought for the first place and cannot be left behind in everything. It can be said to be quite gentle!"
Zhuge Liang recognized this, otherwise Liu Qi would not have escaped from Xiangyang in a hurry and stayed in Jiangxia and dared not go out.
"Jiangxia's strength is indeed growing rapidly at present, but it is not enough to be rampant!"
Liu Bei smiled and said, "In this case, our alliance with us is still useful. At least if we don't fall, there will be much less threats from the north!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head, feeling that Jiang Xia and Liu Qi's temperament was a bit strange...
But Liu Bei didn't think so, but instead thought that Jiang Xia and Liu Qi's personality were quite easy to guess.
Judging from Jiang Xia's attitude of being keen on farming, he obviously has no interest in war.
In this way, if there is not enough power, it is obvious that Jiang Xia will not take the initiative to start the battle lightly.
This is very different from the Liu Bei group's idea, but for many years Liu Bei has been fighting in the world, and who has never seen anyone?
Liu Qi's like this are somewhat similar to Tao Gongzu of Xuzhou in the past.
Of course, Liu Qi is much younger than Tao Gongzu, and his ambitions are also incomparable, but the two have some similar personalities.
Zhuge Liang was a little suspicious, but he still rushed to Jiangxia to find Liu Qi and explore the steel workshop according to Liu Bei's instructions.
But along the way, the prosperity and prosperity of Jiangxia were shocked by Zhuge Liang.
The official road is flat and wide, with endless pedestrians and business trips, prosperous towns and markets, and a wide variety of commodities.
The people have a rosy face and healthy body, and children have signs of having the same tricks on their bodies.
The rice fields are crisscrossing and the fields are everywhere, and the farmhouses are full of chickens and ducks, and the fruit trees on both sides of the road are full of fruits.
Although the clothes on the people are not gorgeous, they are clean and tidy, and patches are rarely seen, which is quite rare.
I never expected that Jiangxia County had developed to this level in just a year.
With Zhuge Liang's powerful soul power, how could he not detect the young and strong within the sensing range? Everyone was filled with qi and blood and his feet were steady. Anyone who exceeded two people subconsciously walked in line, obviously after sufficient training.
Such a young man is almost always...
It seems that the previous guess that Jiang Xia might have prepared a 500,000 army was wrong. It seems that this is at least the limit of a million troops, or even millions of troops.
It’s just that with such a vast training mode, the money, food and manpower consumed are extremely amazing.
Even if Xiangyang and Nanjun do their best, it is difficult to do it. How did Jiangxia County do it?
The key is the obstacles of the aristocratic families and local tyrants. They will never allow the government to take all manpower into control.
Once such a situation occurs, the so-called aristocratic families and local tyrants are just meat on the chopping board of the government and can be used at any time.
Although the Jiangxia family and local tyrants are not strong and are under suppression and attack, they will not be powerless to fight back, right?
Zhuge Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly. Obviously, Jiang Xia's situation was so good that he couldn't accept it.
The person who received Zhuge Liang and his party was the chief of Jiangxia County.
"Mr. Kongming, don't worry, Liu Jun is recuperating and conditioning in the nearby valley, and will return soon to receive the gentleman in person!"
Facing Zhuge Liang, the chief of Jiangxia County was quite polite and did not show any bad attitude at all.
There is no way, his qualifications can only be considered ordinary, and he is also the so-called subordinate branch of the big clan, and he is incomparable in both his own abilities and his reputation in the aristocratic circle.
"Oh, I wonder why Liu Jiangxia needs to recuperate and adjust, is it because she is not feeling well?"
Zhuge Liang took an ally and asked directly without hesitation.
"This is not, but when the envoy was in Xiangyang, he was plotted against, and his body was never able to be very rigorous!"
The chief of Jiangxia County shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying the reason: "When the situation is at its worst, I even have life worries!"
"It's so serious!"
Zhuge Liang was also surprised. He didn't expect that Liu Qi was in Xiangyang so difficult that he had reached the state of life and death.
At the same time, I felt a little more cautious and cautious about some existences in Xiangyang City.
When Liu Jingsheng was still alive, they dared to attack Liu Qi, the eldest son. How could they say that they didn’t dare to attack Liu Bei?
If the actions of Liu Bei Group violated their core interests, who knows what they would do...
