"In this case, the Northern Vietnamese and North Vietnam are obviously weak in terms of military strength, so they can only attack with defense." The Li Dynasty claimed that it sent 200,000 troops, which was known to be very watery, but the Northern Vietnamese and North Vietnam also had the same problem. None of the troops sent by each prefecture told the truth. Even if the number of people is not a problem, the quality must be very watery. For example, Zheng Lisheng's ten thousand soldiers, at most, the soldiers and armor are equipped with regular soldiers, and there is definitely no training or anything else.

In Zheng Lisheng's opinion, Zhou Shixiong's concerns seemed completely unnecessary. He picked up the teacup and slapped it lightly, and said calmly. "The Lord of Ji Mansion is too worried. There is nothing to worry about with Shenglong Mansion in front of us." Zheng Lisheng was disguised by Zheng Zai. Although he was forced to cooperate with Zheng Zai to fight against the enemy temporarily under pressure, the small abacus was a joke. He was right. In any case, Zheng Zai must do his best to deal with Zheng Zhuang. If others lose, they can surrender. Maybe they can still maintain their glory and wealth. Zheng Zai has no choice. Even if he surrenders, he will have to beheaded.

"With that being said, you should try your best to keep the Li Dynasty army out of Shenglong Mansion. Once the Shenglong Mansion is in trouble, our two palaces will not get any benefits." Shenglong Mansion was torn apart, and Zheng Zai was definitely finished, but the business path that Zhou Shixiong relied on to make a living will also be finished. Zhou Shixiong did not want to see this happen, but he could not convince Zheng Lisheng. After all, the business path is the interest of Lang Sang Prefecture and has little to do with Beijiang Prefecture.

"Actually, Zheng is also planning for the Lord of Ji's Mansion. If Zheng Zai loses power, Ruan Phuc will definitely suffer. By then, it will be easier for Lord of Ji's Mansion to take revenge." Zheng Lisheng was determined to drag his feet, and of course he wanted to convince Ji Hongchang to play with him. The reason Zheng Lisheng found was very tenable, and Ji Hongchang was trying hard to refuse.

"Master Xie Zheng's house is worried, I know what to do." Zhou Shixiong saw that he could not convince Zheng Lisheng and had to interrupt the meeting. The next day, he sent the envoys to leave the city.

After Zheng Lisheng left, Zhou Shixiong ordered Ma San to send the latest information to Pingxiangzhou, asking Guan Chongguang to help the staff and see what he should do next. It is definitely necessary to send troops, but there are many choices for what kind of troops to send. Thousands of old and weak people from Lang Sang Prefecture were to send troops, and the 5,000 strongest troops in Pingxiangzhou were also to send troops. Zhou Shixiong was a little confused.

A few days later, Guan Chongguang's reply was sent to Langshan City. At the same time, Tie Yong also came to Langshan City from Jiangzuoying. "Please." Gao Fulai reported Tie Yong to ask for a meeting, and Zhou Shixiong immediately walked out of the second door to welcome him. As a Xiangzhou Jiangzuoying management, both in terms of status and his own ability, Zhou Shixiong deserves respect for him.

"Tie Dazhi, I am always in love with you, why don't you come to participate in the ceremony of taking office in our office?" Zhou Shixiong complained as soon as he saw Tie Yong. Tie Yong was naturally warm in his heart. Gao Fu did not dare to treat Tie Yong as an ordinary craftsman, knowing that this was the master's friend.

"Please forgive me for your sins. I really don't dare to stoke my status as a young man, for fear of slandering his reputation." Tie Yong dares to look down on Xiangzhou, but Tie Yong knows that craftsmen have no status. The main reason why they can be respected in Xiangzhou is that the first generation of Zhennan Hou attaches importance to them. There is no Zhennan Hou taking care of Lang Shan Mansion, so it is justified that they can be kept low and as low as possible.

"The iron master craftsman is a mistake. Our mansion was once a craftsman. Now he is the lord of a mansion, which is a coincidence. However, our mansion never thinks that craftsmen are inferior, and he will not think it is a stain just because of his friends." Changing the social status of craftsmen is not something that Zhou Shixiong can do now. He can only reveal one information to others, Lang Sang Mansion does not discriminate against craftsmen.

"Since the Lord of Ji treats each other sincerely, the young man should appreciate it. The young man in Dailang San Mansion thanks the grace of Lord." Tie Yong hugged Zhou Shixiong very solemnly. Zhou Shixiong received the whole ceremony with a smile, and then called Tie Yong to come in and talk in detail.

Sitting in the side hall, Zhou Shixiong signaled Gao Fu to tea, "Tie Dazhi, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. You must have something to do this time. Try to tell me what you can do. Those who can help me will not refuse." With Xiangzhou transferring materials to Langshan Prefecture, Tie Yong, a craftsman, could not know that it was the transfer secret order of the Grandma You Min, on behalf of Zhennan Hou Mansion, signed by Guan Chongguang and Li Fusheng, Tie Yong was not qualified to question it.

"Mr. Ji, I really have something to tell you about, but this matter is more closely related to Master." Tieyong kept it a secret, and Zhou Shixiong frowned and thought carefully, what is related to him? After thinking for a while, Zhou Shixiong was still confused. Tieyong hurriedly started to estimate. "Mr. Ji, do you still remember the chariot?"

"Oh, of course I remember!" How could the chariot not remember, it was just because I hadn't been in contact for too long and didn't remember it for a while. "Iron Master, has the chariot completed all the tests and transformations?"

"That's it." Tie Yong smiled proudly. Although Ji Hongchang was the creator and the first developer of the chariot, the credit for truly building the first batch of chariots that can be put into use should belong to Tie Yong. He is fully qualified to be proud.

"It's great, let's go and have a look." Tieyong came to report in person, indicating that he was very confident in the performance of the final chariot. Zhou Shixiong hurriedly stood up and walked out. He could not wait to see the power of the new chariot.

"Don't be anxious, Master Ji, I brought the experimental records over the past year. You can check these records first. The chariot will have to wait two days before it arrives." Zhou Shixiong was thinking about going to the craftsman camp to see the real thing. Tieyong's words surprised him a little, "Do you transport the chariot to Langshan City?"

"The young man was ordered by the magistrate to send ten chariots to Lang San City. The magistrate sent a letter to Xiao, saying that Lord Ji would understand after reading it." Tie Yong took out a letter and handed it to Zhou Shixiong. Zhou Shixiong took it and opened it and understood.

Tieyong conducted the most thorough experiments and transformations of the elephant chariots in accordance with the experimental procedures set by Zhou Shixiong. When he believed that the chariots had reached the level of perfection, he submitted a report to Pingxiangzhou. Guan Chongguang personally went to the marshal to visit the actual combat exercises of the chariots and immediately ordered that the first batch of these ten chariots be sent to Lang San City to increase the defense of Lang San City.

Guan Chongguang's reason is very simple. Since the main military generals in Xiangzhou are all in Lang San City, the defenders of Lang San City are really not trustworthy. In order to ensure the safety of Zhou Shixiong and others and to avoid murders like Nguyen Phuc Bao, it is necessary to strengthen Lang San City's defense.

Guan Chongguang's reason was high-sounding. Zhou Shixiong couldn't find a suitable reason to object, so he could only pinch his nose and accept it. "Iron Master, the boat and car must be exhausted. Please go down and rest first. Wait for two days to arrive. How about we watch together?"

"Sir Xie Ji, I dare not obey orders." Tieyong followed Gao Fu to rest. Zhou Shixiong took out the information he had just sent and found another letter written by Guan Chongguang in it, which was replying to the issue of sending troops.

Guan Chongguang believed that Zhou Shixiong's choice was right. At this stage, Lang Sang Prefecture was not qualified to play the game of fisherman and crane clam fighting. Maintaining the confrontation between the two countries was the most in line with the interests of Lang Sang Prefecture. In order to achieve this goal, Lang Sang Prefecture should not only actively send troops, but also expand the military armor manufacturing industry and provide better military armor to the various prefectures of the Northern Vietnamese. It is necessary to make money in the national crisis, and it is also necessary to improve the combat effectiveness of the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty.

"This Cheng Peng is probably just making excuses to make money from the national crisis!" Zhou Shixiong complained in his heart, calling Gao Fu, who was guarding outside, and ordered him to find a suitable place in Qushui River outside Langshan City, and he wanted to build a large ironworks workshop.

"Master, how big is the big one?" Zhou Shixiong gave the concept too vague. Gao Fu was afraid that the job would not meet the Master's requirements, so he asked very carefully.

"It should be about a hundred acres in size. Well, don't choose a place with fertile land, just find a wasteland." Zhou Shixiong pondered for a moment and gave two accurate requirements. Gao Fu nodded when he heard this.

That night, Zhou Shixiong summoned Zhu Ying, Zhou Er, Zhou Hou and Li Xiaobin to announce the news of sending troops to fight against the Li Dynasty. Although Zhu Ying was very interested in commanding the battle, Zhou Shixiong still handed over the task of sending troops to Zhou Er, and Li Xiaobin led the night to assist. As for Zhu Ying and Zhou Hou, one was responsible for the entire Lang Sang Prefecture's troops, and the other was responsible for training the new night to support Zhu Ying.

"My husband, I want to go too!" As soon as Zhou Er and others left, Zhu Ying launched a tactic of acting coquettishly. This was the one she had just come from Li Zhen and there. Shang Yueqing had been a military discipline officer for too long and had become an ice beauty. Only Zhou Shixiong could turn her into soft water in bed. She was cold and cold at other times. The occupational diseases are quite harmful!

"Who will protect the safety of my husband after my wife left?" Since Zhou Shixiong could hand over the power of the commander of the mansion to Zhu Ying, he naturally believed that Zhu Ying had such ability. The only problem was that Zhu Ying must be tied to her side to prevent her from acting willful. Now, except for Zhou Shixiong, only You Min can control Zhu Ying, and even the teacher, Chongguang, has no choice but to Zhu Ying.

When my husband trusted him so much, Zhu Ying immediately felt sweet and said with a smile, "I will fool people. You are not doing anything without my protection before."

"It was the past, now it is the present, and this cannot be confused. Since I married Baoer, I can't leave my wife for my husband. Could it be that my wife has to abandon her husband?" The couple played with flower guns and went back to the back house with laughter.

Lang Sang Prefecture had just issued a mobilization order, and the army of Li Dynasty had divided into three groups toward the southern Dingfu of Vietnam. Heping Prefecture was approaching. The first towns of Vietnam that were attacked were Fayan Town, Anlao Town in Nan Ding Prefecture, and Biancun Town in Heping Prefecture.

These three places are the three most important military towns of the Northern Vietnamese borders. Originally, those stationed here were elite soldiers and generals, but this time the Li Dynasty attacked the whole country. Although there were tens of thousands of soldiers in the three towns, they could not withstand the fierce attacks of nearly ten times the enemy. In just one day of the confrontation, the three towns fell separately. Fortunately, the guards of these three towns were not idiots and did not run away by themselves. When retreating, they ignited three passes to block the enemy's pursuit.
