    Then he began to unfurl the sails, and the seven cables around the sand ship were untied. Relying on the support poles and the force of the wind, it gradually sailed out of the dock.  After that, we started to test the speed and steering of the ship. You won¡¯t know if you don¡¯t try it, but you will be shocked if you try it. Well, for the purpose of testing, I specially spent money to hire a fishing boat and a medium-sized sailing ship for transporting people.  This careful sand boat can turn upward and completely beat the medium-sized sailboat. Compared with the fishing boat, the steering is about the same and both appear to be very light.  In the subsequent speed test, although the crew operating the sand boat were not very familiar with this new type of vessel, the sand boat was still very fast, leaving the fishing boats and sailing boats far behind.  "My dear, this thing runs really fast. Compared with those two old ships, it is as fast as a galloping horse." Liu Hongji couldn't help but exclaimed.  "The speed is more than one-third faster. It is definitely top-notch when sailing within rivers, and in terms of cargo-carrying capacity, it is definitely not inferior to other ships. However, if it goes to sea, this ship may not be able to fight against giants.  Waves." The old boatman narrowed his eyes and looked at the sand boat speeding on the water. He was relieved but also a little regretful.  "It doesn't matter, old man, the other three ships are the real ocean-going ships. Unfortunately, we are in a river area, so we can only build small ones for trial navigation." I showed a bright smile and looked at the old boatman.  Words.  The old boatman nodded and smiled.  "Well, sir, don't worry. We have already researched the other three ship models. We can start building them in three to five days at most. However, the largest one can only be built similar to the current sand ship. After all, that  The three types of boats have deeper drafts and are more suitable for sailing on the sea, rather than in rivers. ""How long does it take to test this boat before it can be built?" I pointed to the sand boat and asked the old boatman.  "If it were an ordinary ship, I'm afraid it would have to be tested for two or three months. However, looking at this ship, not only is it extremely fast, but it also turns very smoothly and naturally. There shouldn't be any big problems." The old boatman clapped his mouth:  "If the young master is in urgent need, construction can begin this month. Now there are enough manpower here, and the newly built docks are almost ready." "Starting from tomorrow, I will build a sand ship that is seven feet long and two feet wide.  If there is no problem, we can build a bigger sand boat." The old boatman stroked his long beard and said with a smile on his face.  "Okay, then, of these shipyards, except for the largest and the two that are going to be used to build the other three sea-going ship prototypes, the other shipyards are all used to build the sand ships you mentioned, which are seven feet long and two feet wide." I  After thinking about it, I agreed to the old boatman's request.  "Brother, it seems that Yang Guang's luck is really coming to an end." Liu Hongji sat opposite me, holding the letter from Li Shimin, clicking his tongue while reading it.  "Unexpectedly, just one month after we sent out troops, it turned out like this." "Well, I, who was sitting there, sipping tea, was also extremely emotional.  On the third day of February, Yang Guang set out from Luoyang, the eastern capital, for the third time to campaign against Goguryeo. However, this time the Northern Expedition was troubled from the very beginning.  In late February, Tang Bi, the commander-in-chief of Funei, proclaimed Li Hongzhi the emperor and had more than 100,000 people. He called himself the King of Tang and continued to attack the city and plunder the land. When he heard this guy calling himself the King of Tang, he was holding his chin in his hand.  The young master who read the letter almost poked his finger into his nose.  Damn, is this too much?  How dare this guy call him Prince Tang?  I remember that the king of the Tang Dynasty should be Duke Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty. In the 13th year of the Sui Dynasty's great cause, he rebelled against the Sui Dynasty. After capturing Chang'an, he proclaimed Yang Guang's grandson Yang You as the emperor.  .  In the name of Yang You, he also pretended to be Huangyue, envoy Chijie, governor of internal and external military affairs, Shangshu Ling, and prime minister, and was granted the title of King of Tang Dynasty.  Could it be that the bandit leader calling Tang Bi is also a time traveler?  He actually proclaimed himself the King of Tang Dynasty. Damn it, I have the urge to find someone to ask if this guy has a QQ account and Yi Meier.  In addition to this incident, when Yang Guang Guang's army arrived in Zhuo County in mid-March, soldiers continued to flee along the way. After arriving at Linyu Palace, Yang Guang ordered to kill more than a thousand defectors while worshiping the Yellow Emperor in the countryside.  The soldiers smeared the blood of the dead on the war drums as a warning, but the fleeing still intensified.  I shook my head and said with great disdain: "Such bloody and disgusting methods are simply the behavior of a tyrant and a foolish king. Such chilling things can be done. No wonder the soldiers are not only not afraid, but also more  It makes the world become divided. "It seems that the Sui Dynasty is really going to end." Liu Hongji smacked his mouth with a look of disdain.  "My dear brother, you are indeed far-sighted. Now, in Hancheng County, your business is almost like an iron bucket. When troubled times come, my dear brother will definitely have a place." After thinking about it, Liu Hongji rushed in admiration.  I raised my thumbs up.  "Maybe, I just hope that no one will take a fancy to this place, otherwise, the territory that I have managed with great difficulty may be swallowed up by others." This young master scratched his head, feeling a littleGenerous and authentic.  "That's true. Otherwise, brother, I still have brothers who are trustworthy in Qianlaihao. How about I bring a group over for you?" Liu Hongji touched his fluffy beard and thought.  After thinking about it, he asked me.  The 800 bu that I own are placed here, and the remaining 200 or so bu have now moved to Chang'an with my mother and the others.  Eight hundred pieces of music, thrown at home, may seem like a lot, but compared with those bandits who often have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, it is simply a drop in the bucket, and it is not enough to protect oneself. "Brother, if it is convenient, send three hundred  "How about I give it to my little brother?" After thinking about it, I realized that there is strength in numbers.  Liu Hongji rolled his eyes at me, waved his hand generously and said: "Three hundred? Brother, I will give you five hundred people. Anyway, Luoyang doesn't need so many. Besides, there are too many refugees now. As long as we can give them food,  , they are willing to kill and set fire, I will give you five hundred. When the time comes, I will try to recruit another five hundred people, and my strength will not be reduced. There is really no one in Dongdu who dares to bare his teeth at me." "That's okay, thank you brother.  Come on, there are a lot of refugees here, so we can recruit some." I thought.  "That makes sense. Brother Xian, you have a lot of equipment in your arsenal. I believe you can recruit three to five thousand people and create an army. Let's see who dares to attack Hancheng County.  When the time comes, if you need me, brother, I will definitely come to help you," Liu Hongji said cheerfully.  "Well, it's time to do something about it. I don't think the court will look at Hancheng County no matter what. However, what if some group of blind bandits come to our Hancheng County to sneak around?  "That young man will be in trouble." I clapped my hands and nodded.  "Nowadays, bandits appear in tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people. With just a thousand people, they are not a meal at all." "This is reasonable. You really need to recruit more people. Don't be afraid of one  Ten thousand, just in case." Liu Hongji also agreed seriously.  Soon, the two brothers Yang Qiong and Han Xiong were recruited. After working together for more than half a year, these two, as well as the officials of Hancheng County, now know very well that I am not a heavyweight with them.  , follow us, you will have soup to drink, and meat to eat. If you want to go against this young master, you must first consider whether you can challenge the eight hundred steps in my hands first.  The matter discussed is naturally about the county recruiting soldiers to protect itself.  Regarding this issue, all the officials in Antai who are accustomed to Hancheng County all agree. However, there is really no balance point on this issue as to how many soldiers and horses a county should recruit.  My opinion is that it is between 3,000 and 5,000, but countless people have jumped out and said that with the taxes in Hancheng County, it is already very good to be able to support 500 soldiers. If it is more, it will be difficult to support at all.  Continue.  This is true, but the question is, what if I pay for it myself?  In the blink of an eye, I turn an old hen into a duck.  "Everyone, the people of Hancheng County are our fathers and elders. I believe no one wants them to be harmed by swords and weapons, right?" These words made the officials who were foaming at the mouth nod subconsciously.  "I believe that both we and the elders of Hancheng County hope to live in a peaceful and happy, prosperous and peaceful atmosphere" I stood up and started to talk about bureaucracy.  Full flavor of official accent.  For the four modernizations?  Oh no, the construction of a modern society under feudalism and imperialism relies on a stable environment and reliable social system. Of course, it also requires a group of outstanding officials who dare to do practical things and abide by professional ethics. But the problem is that now all over the country  The rebel behavior in the capital is getting higher and higher, and the safety of Hancheng County has also begun to be affected.     what to do?  How can we protect our achievements and fruits, let Hancheng County unite as one, and create a better future in a harmonious and peaceful social atmosphere? This requires us to think deeply, and it also requires us to speed up the pace to protect the safety of people's property and combat the epidemic.  All destabilizing forces and influences. ?????????????????? Finally, seeing all these guys being stunned by me, um, they all looked like stars, with dull expressions, I finally threw a bomb.  "I would like to express my gratitude to the Emperor. Nowadays, the Sui Dynasty is full of chaos, bandits are everywhere, and people all over the world are in dire straits. Therefore, I would like to ask the Emperor to issue an order to all the states and counties in the world to recruit strong men and build more cities and fortresses to control the disaster of thieves."  People all claim to be good.  However, Han Xiong jumped up.  "Young master, this is a good strategy for governing the country. However, now that the emperor is far away in northern Xinjiang, such an important decision may not be finalized for a while. And our county currently has only a few dozen officers. If there is really an invasion, how can we fight against it?"  Maybe when the time comes, Hancheng County will suffer a military disaster, and we will not be able to escape the blame."
