Twenty miles west of Lingzhou City, here is a tributary of the Yellow River, which irrigates two or three hundred thousand fields around Lingzhou.At this time, on the river of this small river, which was not more than 400 steps wide, the Lingzhou Iron and Steel Factory began to break ground under the auspices of Chen Ying.

Although it has entered the March of the two-year-old Wud, Lingzhou is still cold.However, the energetic Lingzhou people, and the prisoners of war, have begun to sweat on their foreheads.

Chen should not be a steelmaking professional, he nominally presided, but put forward some reference opinions.The specific matter is presided over by Lin Chuanfu.Chen should preside over the revision of the Lingzhou Iron and Steel Plant, designed with a capacity of 20,000 pounds a day.That is, five tons, of course, this scale is similar to the post-family workshop level.In this day and age, however, it is already quite large.

Lin is a legendary craftsman who designed a system of hydro-geuist, a huge earthen box similar to an accordion.Up and down is the plank.Around the folding ground leather.Use the water flow difference of the clear ditch to drive the ground wind box.Chen Ying had wanted to directly abandon this original windshield and change to a hydrangea fan blower.However, this idea has just been raised.

Lin Chuanfu looked at Chen Ying with an incredible eye.

Chen should be somewhat embarrassed by Lin Chuanfu's eyes, Chen should red face and ask: "How is there a problem?"

“The problem is big!”Lin Chuanfu said that professional things will become endless: "Although the water force is strong, but the speed is too slow, how to form the wind?"And if you increase the speed, the use of ratchet, it is not impossible to do, but since then, there will be new problems, the shaft is easy to say, how to solve the problem of supply wind?"

In fact, after Lin Chuanfu's explanation, Chen Ying found the gap between the layman and the insider.In the future, the gears, bearings, shafts or lubricating oils are insurmountable problems in this era.The use of ground wind box type fan, but the most economical and most affordable way.

Chen should be very relieved to hand over the task of modifying the steel plant to Lin Chuanfu.For this iron steel factory, Chen should specially plot nearly 2,000 acres of land on the banks of the Qingshui ditch River as factory land.The entire plant is divided into four major areas.Both the river blast furnace area, coal storage area, iron ore storage area and artisan family living area.

Four major regions, working at the same time.Nearly 20,000 young and strong at the same time started, the entire Lingzhou iron and steel plant has become a huge construction site.Those Han slaves who had just been rescued from the Turkic hands were too weak to rest and recuperate, and were not useful for the time being.With the passage of time, more and more Han slaves were released by the Turks, and only Lingzhou received more than 50,000 people, and more than 50,000 mouths were eaten by a mountain every day.

Ling Governor Shi Yang was the first to support, he found Chen should complain: "Chief Chen, our food is not much, if there are more people down, even a month can not support it ah!"

Chen should be disapprovingly: "Originally, we did not seize more than 30,000 horses dead or injured horses, and killed those horses, scraped horses, and all of them to eat meat!"

"Oh, Chen Da, you really don't know how expensive Chai rice is expensive!"Yang sighed and looked even more distressed: “You don’t know, how many people in Lingzhou eat now?”

“How much?”

“A hundred thousand people!”Yang said: "In terms of two pounds of grain per person, you will eat 200,000 pounds a day."Moreover, whether it is the repair of the steel mill or the mining of coal or iron ore, this is heavy physical work, do not eat enough, there is no effort to work.

Suddenly, Chen Ying found that Yang Zemeiyu was not sad, but relaxed: "Yang Changshi seems to have a wonderful plan?"

Yang coughed down to hide his embarrassment.I forgot so much that Chen should be seen.

Yang said, "Master, the Turks were shocked by my Tang Tianwei, and let back the people who had looted before, so happy, why not report to Jie Chang'an?"

Chen Ying found out that he subconsciously regarded himself as the master.If you have difficulties, you find ways to solve it yourself, and you have not considered Changan at all.

In any case, these people have been rescued, the Turks are also yellow when they are not accepted, they actually do not have enough food to feed these slaves, so they will be very happy to release these captive Han people.Although Li Pliphon was afraid of Chen Ying, most of the Turkic nobles were not afraid of Chen Ying.

If the princess had not told these Turks, it would have been spring soon, and after a winter toss, the cattle and sheep and the horses were seriously gone, and the Chinese did not have to fight, but only needed to drag them, and they could be exhausted.As long as it is winter, a white hair blows down, and they will lose a lot.

There is a season of the year in the spring, this sentence is not only applicable to the Han people, in fact, the Turks also apply.No matter what kind of animal, like to mate and multiply when the food is abundant and the climate is mild.So when the grass is long in the spring, whether the horses or the cattle and sheep are estrus, they all begin to estrus.If it is because of war, it will delay the estrus of animals, and then it will cause the Turks to lose a lot, almost the same as the Han people's granules.

But the Turks do not have the habit of storing food, and if it is not because of the disaster victims in many years, even if there are no granules in the place, it will not cause a lot of disaster.But the Turkic people were less able to resist natural disasters than the Han Chinese.The Turks, who had just passed a long and cold winter, at this time their horses were thin, the cattle and sheep were seriously, and if there was another war, they would have to drink the northwest wind.Unless they can guarantee it, they will win.

No matter what the Turks released these captured Han people, but for the Datang, this is a very proud and proud thing, since the end of the big business, the Central Plains is turbulent, the Turks will be the Central Plains as their own vegetable garden, ready to pick.

As long as Chen should report this news to Chang'an, Li Yuan will never be stingy with food.Chen should naturally not swell his face and fill the fat man, and nodded directly: "So it is good, just bother Yang Changshi to write this fold, the chief can be co-known with you!"

On this side, Yang has just written the play well, and it has not yet been released.Someone came to say “Initiate the Chief, Urgent Report.”Chen should have just opened, his face changed greatly.

“What happened?”

Yang asked nervously, “What happened?”

“The Thieves!”Chen should be indignant: "The newly appointed Guanjun's capacity of the imperial court caused the attack on the foot of the six-panel mountain in Gaoping, in the former state, with most of the casualties, the new Guanjun capacity made Li Daozong's arrows uncertain!"

Yang’s face changed greatly.

On this side, Liu Zhongzhi had just fled back to Chang'an, and the new army on this side had not yet had time to take office and was attacked.At this time, Chen should be afraid that he jumped into the Yellow River and could not wash it.
