"Report! The war in Guangzong is in urgent need!"

The spy's sudden return made the convention hall quiet, and people felt a little frightened. The war was in a hurry, and the situation had changed.

Qing Cang asked, "Say, how about the war?"

The spy said straight: "When Huangfu Song fought with Zhang Liang until yesterday evening, the Later Huangfu Song used a trick to break the Guangzong County. The Yellow Turban Army was defeated and Zhang Liang was also beheaded. More than 30,000 Yellow Turban Army were killed, and about 50,000 people were forced to fall into the river and drowned. Zhang Jiao's coffin was cut open by the Han army, and his corpse was broken into pieces, and his head was sent to Luoyang. At this time, Huangfu Song led his troops to Xiaquyang, trying to capture Zhang Bao's troops."

Although he knew the result, he was still a little shock when the spy got his reward. After all, Zhang Jiao was killed after his death, which shows how deep the court hated him.

Guo Jiaze said: "I am afraid that our weapons to assist Zhang Liang will be revealed by Huangfu Song. If he came to attack us with this reason, we may lose a lot of soldiers."

Qing Cang said: "He will not come to attack us in a short time, after all, the Yellow Turban has not been extinguished yet."

At the same time, someone asked: "Commander, will we help the Yellow Turban Army again?"

"We still need assistance! But the methods will be a little different. Since we have sent a lot of weapons and equipment to Zhang Liang, and now Zhang Liang has failed, the weapons must have fallen into Huangfu Song's hands, so we have to get some compensation from Zhang Bao. As for what to compensate, do you have any good suggestions?"

"I think that food is the most important thing, and people are the most important thing, so let them take out a lot of food to exchange for weapons and equipment with us."

"No, now they stick to it, food is equally important. If we exchange food for us, then they are not far from failure. I think we are in a time when we are short of money now, and a lot of gold can make us less stressed."

"We have printed all the money ourselves, what else do we need? Is it not right!"

"This is not OK, that is not OK! There is nothing to change."

Finally, Wang Zongwei suggested: "Maybe we can exchange them for some iron-made weapons. Our army has expanded in large quantities and the number of weapons needed is increasing. The degree of mining itself can no longer meet our needs."

Wang Zongwei's proposal quickly attracted some people's approval. Some people said: "I think Minister Wang's proposal is very good. With our smelting level, we can definitely rebuild iron products with poor texture and create better quality weapons and equipment."

Someone else said, "Why didn't I expect this? So many of them died must have residual weapons. It's useless to keep them anyway. It's better to use them in exchange for more powerful equipment!"

Qing Cang thought that this seemed quite reliable. If we enter the steam era in the future and build steam trains, rails, etc., then the amount of iron required must be huge. At this time, the amount of iron can be stored. The iron products obtained from them only need some reconstruction to be used. Unlike iron ore, they have to undergo a series of processes such as purification.

Perhaps in the future, trade can be carried out in this way, and high-level weapons can be exchanged for a large amount of raw materials.

Finally, even Guo Jia joined the ranks of agreement. "Minister Wang's proposal is very referenceable, and I also support his opinions."

It can be said that no one objected, which also fits Qing Cang's decision.

"No, let's send out the news to contact Zhang Bao and others, saying that we can provide them with advanced weapons and equipment, but they need to exchange them for iron products. The degree should be fast, don't wait until Huangfu Song arrives at Xiaquyang, then it will be too late."

Xiaquyang is not far from Huaxia City, and the spy can go back and forth for a day, but Huangfu Song is different. He has a large army, which takes at least three days to go from Guangzong to the end.

Before Qing Cang could send spies to Xiaquyang, guards came to report.

"Reported, a messenger from Quyang came."

Everyone, look at me, I see you. It seems that Zhang Bao is much more anxious than them. Now, I send someone to come again, and this time I must be asking for weapons and equipment.

"Let him in."

At this moment, a rough man immediately walked in with a short sword in his hand. His voice was loud and he knelt down when he saw Qing Cang. This trip was something to ask for, so why not kneel down and bow?

"Zhao Shun pays homage to the city lord."

Before Zhao Shun could tell his purpose, Qing Cang snatched before him: "Zhao Shun, go back and tell your commander Zhang Bao, saying that I, Huaxia City, is willing to help you weapons and equipment, but you need to pay a little price to obtain these weapons and equipment."

Zhao Shun heard a smile on his originally heavy face. He didn't expect that everything would go so smoothly. You know, he came here for less than five times, and he was disappointed every time, but today it was different. Qing Cang actually asked to give them weapons and equipment. No! It's not for gifts, but for exchange.

If you own the weapons of Huaxia City, it is equivalent to strengthening Xia Quyang's guarding ability again.

So he said, "Thank you, Lord City, in fact, our Lord General has already explained it, and he also gave me power. As long as it is reasonable, I can make the decision."

"Then, I will call you the price. Each crossbow cart has one hundred weapons, each set of vine armor and ten weapons, each continuous crossbow shooting ten weapons."

The iron used for the crossbows was definitely not used. He spoke up and asked for one hundred sets of them. He was not afraid that they would not agree. After all, the enemy was in front of him, the faster the better.

When Zhao Shun heard this, he showed a hint of disgrace. Obviously, he knew that Qing Cang would speak loudly, but he didn't expect to be so cruel. But when he looked back, if the city was broken, it would be useless even if there were more weapons.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, we want a thousand crossbows and five thousand continuous shooting crossbows. As for vine armor, we don't want it."

If you calculate it this way, it will be replaced with 150,000 sets of weapons with 1,000 crossbows and 5,000 continuous shooting crossbows. This is the power of technology. This exchange is unequal, but the other party has no choice but to change it.

"Sure, go back and prepare. We agreed to trade between Huaxia City and Quyang City in the middle."

Zhao Shun knew it a little intentionally, which was to help them. If Qing Cang only let them trade in Huaxia City, it would definitely not be a good thing for Quyang, because at that time, time was getting tighter, and Huangfu Song's vanguard might have already arrived at the city. Then their every move would be monitored, and it would be impossible to transport weapons openly. It would be possible that they could see them and seize them directly. As for what Zhang Liang and the others did, maybe they had something authentic to transport the weapons that Huaxia City had helped them to the city.

Zhao Shunluo said excitedly: "Thank you for your understanding, I will go back and notify them of preparation now. Say goodbye!"

Please give me a monthly ticket, thank you everyone!
