Chapter 143: A failed strategy

After the Qingming Festival, the drizzle kept raining, and the streets and lanes of Qingzhou were muddy everywhere.
These few days, Xiao Ming was running around, but he was really fed up with the days when he was all in the mud. He thought that if he could hold Cangzhou, he would have to build a few concrete avenues running through Qingzhou. The drainage should also be rectified.
After all, this infrastructure is also one of the necessary projects for the construction of the fief, and the creation of a favorable living environment can also attract merchants from the country to settle in Qingzhou.
At that time we will sell land again, hehe, the legendary land finance will come.
But when it rained, it was always boring. The Equipment Division forged Luo Xin's plate armor again, so he sent someone to let Luo Xin come over and asked Luo Xin something by the way.
"His Royal Highness, the plate armor is ready so soon?"
This plate armor is naturally to appease Luo Xin.
He asked the Iron and Steel Workshop to customize a set of generals' plate armor for Luo Xin. Unlike the plate armor worn by ordinary soldiers, the generals' plate armor is not only beautiful, but also thicker.
Not to mention that Lu Fei's strength is great, this Luo Xin's strength is also enough to wear this set of thick plate armor.
"Try it on?" Xiao Ming said, leaning against the chair.
Two of the four former loss friends died, and now the remaining Qin Mu and Wei Qing were too scared to speak in front of him.
Suddenly Xiao Ming felt lonely.
However, this Luo Xin came from Chang'an, and he would not appear too restrictive in front of him like others. After all, the relationship between the officials of the Great Yu State was still very harmonious.
Ten days have passed since the Qingzhou Army's affairs last time. Although Luo Xin and Lu Fei's relationship is not as harmonious as it was at first, it is relatively relaxed.
And one of his poems also changed Luo Xin's attitude towards him a bit, but he visited him in the palace from time to time.
After all, Luo Xin was unaccompanied when he arrived in Qingzhou alone, and Xiao Ming finally knew each other.
These days, Luo Xin admired the plate armor that Lu Fei wore in the army, especially the quality of the plate armor. He was very surprised, because in his opinion, the level of forged swords in Qingzhou was even much higher than that of Chang'an.
He has never eaten pork, and has seen pigs running away. In the army, he naturally saw how soldiers wear plate armor, and he put on the plate armor in a decent way.
Suddenly, a man with a full steel armor stood in front of Xiao Ming.
"Not bad." Xiao Ming nodded in satisfaction, this armor deserves to be customized.
In fact, the plate armor on each soldier is almost tailor-made, otherwise there will be situations where it will not fit, and this is also a drawback of the plate armor production.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Luo Xin happily looked at the plate armor on his body. This was his happiest time since he arrived in Qingzhou.
Putting on the plate armor, Luo Xin turned to leave.
Xiao Ming immediately stopped Luo Xin, "Where are you going?"
"Let's try again with Lu Fei, huh, this time the newspapers have been sent to Chang'an, Luo Xin has never been so embarrassed, I must clean up him." Luo Xin was very angry when he thought of it.
Xiao Ming was helpless, and he did not expect that the newspaper would go to Chang'an because of a poem. In the next seven days, he not only received the letter from the concubine Zhen, but also got the decree to send the ox to Qingzhou. In addition, the court played in Fiji. The court gave Qingzhou 2 million shi grains, 5,000 silk cloth, and 200,000 taels of silver.
This surprised him a bit. This ancient marching battle had severely damaged production.
Not to mention that soldiers can't produce food. The recruitment of civilians to transport food and grass also made them unable to produce food. Xiao Wenxuan's giving him so much food can also ease the food problem in Qingzhou a little bit.
After all, Qingzhou is still in a food crisis, and it is the most difficult time when the green and yellow are not picking up. It is estimated that the food will get better this season.
"Fight again? You are not afraid that this newspaper will be spread to Chang'an. If you lose, you will still be ashamed. If you win, you will lose the face of General Luo Quan."
"Why are you embarrassed after winning?" Luo Xin's head was in the armor, and his speech was a little vague.
Xiao Ming sneered: "General Luo has always been strict in governing the army. As a captain, you not only don't set an example for the soldiers, but also take the lead in fighting. What is it like?"
Luo Xin thought for a while, it seemed to be the reason, but the fact that Lu Fei took care of the eight punches kept him in a stomach of fire. He couldn't help but smashed the table severely, "Neither can this, nor can it, Your Highness. , You are partial."
"How can this king be partial? Now there is something to make you cheaper. I just received an order that the emperor will send General Niu Ben to Qingzhou to perform hard labor. Leave this to you."
"General Niu Ben?" Luo Xin couldn't believe his ears.
This is a person who is comparable to his father and is proficient in the art of war. In this respect, even his father is not as good.
"It is General Niu Ben. Since he has arrived in Qingzhou, let him perform hard labor in the Qingzhou army." Xiao Ming said lightly.
This Niu Ben was convicted for colliding with Xiao Wenxuan, and now Xiao Wenxuan sent him to Qingzhou to make it clear that Xiao Ming wanted to find a way to make this Niu Ben used by the Qingzhou Army.
It's just that this bull dared even Xiao Wenxuan dash, how could such a person Xiao Ming easily subdue it.
However, if this can really make Niu Ben for his own use, the Qingzhou Army has really added a commander-level figure since then, which is very beneficial to the development of the Qingzhou Army.
After all, Lu Fei is a thorny head, with many advantages and many disadvantages. Luo Xin may not be able to stay in Qingzhou, he is a temporary worker.
Luo Xin naturally understood this as soon as he thought about it, and Xiao Wenxuan was giving away to Xiao Ming.
The general of the main combat faction could not be indifferent to see Cangzhou City being broken.
"Yes, Your Highness, I must take care of General Niu." Luo Xin arched his hands.
Xiao Ming nodded and told him when Luo Xin would set off to pick up General Niu, and let him go back.
For Xiao Wenxuan's kindness ~EbookFREE.me~ Xiao Ming led it, but what he wanted was the crushing of the barbarians by artillery, and the generals Qingzhou needed in the future would also be generals who would command the firearms.
But thinking that it takes a transition time from cold weapons to hot weapons, he just gave up.
As soon as Luo Xin walked with his front foot, Zhan Xingchang walked in with his back foot.
He said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, except for King Yong who is willing to provide one hundred thousand stone food, all the other princes are embarrassed and unable to support."
When talking about this, Zhan Xingchang was very ashamed. He was full of confidence at first, but it was obvious that the shamelessness of these alien vassals exceeded his expectations.
"If you don't give it, it's right." Xiao Ming said, "I was only trying to try these people's attitudes, so it seems that these people really have bad intentions, nothing else, no matter if you don't give it, the future of the province will face the king. You have to read their favors back then."
Xiao Ming pretends to be profound, and he has already scolded the 18th generation of the ancestors of Wang Zhao and others, and these are too shameful for him.
