Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 186 Meng Tian
On the county side, with the arrival of Yingzheng and the others, it became lively all of a sudden.

Zhao Qingrui also met the famous historical general Meng Tian, ​​Meng Yi's older brother.

Looking at the burly and tall Meng Tian, ​​dressed in armor, with firm eyes.

"I have seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty Wannian, Great Qin Wannian." A group of people knelt down with a roar.

"Be flat, don't be too polite." Ying Zheng looked at these people indifferently, and his eyes fell on Meng Tian, ​​who had been stationed in Shangjun for several years.

It was because of Meng Tian's presence that the northern part of Daqin was stabilized, and Meng Tian contributed a lot.

Follow Meng Tian and the others into the Junwei's mansion, which is Meng Tian's residence.

Meng Tian is not very good at words, and he just briefly introduced the situation in Shangjun along the way.

Zhao Qingrui listened carefully. Shangjun belongs to the border area, and the Xiongnu come to harass it from time to time, and the Great Wall needs to be built. The task of stationing troops here is quite heavy.

The people who built the Great Wall were basically prisoners of war, and some had committed serious crimes. These people had to be carefully managed, and even so, there were occasional rebellions.

The garrison here not only has to look at the people who built the Great Wall, but also guards against the Huns.

Zhao Qingrui listened carefully, thinking about whether to conscript again and expand the garrison in Shangjun.

After thinking about it for a while, I still gave up this idea. The problem is still the same. The food in the Daqin treasury cannot afford to support so many people, so there is no need to recruit soldiers now.

Meng Tian was also quietly looking at the little princess. She immediately pushed out the position of Mr. Fusu when she came back. Although he knew a lot about the princess from his brother's letter, he was still curious about Zhao Qingrui. .

For His Majesty's decision, he did not support or oppose it. The monarch of Daqin has never been determined by the Meng family.

But His Majesty wants them to assist Zhao Qingrui, they just need to be obedient.

Zhao Qingrui's ability has also been recognized by the people in the court, and they have no objection in their hearts.

Thinking of Daqin's recent situation, Meng Tian wanted to get to know this princess better.

The county lieutenant's mansion is relatively simple, basically there are some necessary supplies, there are no superfluous things at all, and the simple style of the soldiers is brought into full play.

"Your Highness is curious about this place?" Meng Tian's voice suddenly appeared behind Zhao Qingrui.

"I'm a little curious. The general has too few things here. Is there anything missing?" Zhao Qingrui smiled, but she admired Meng Tian very much in her heart.

Meng Tian was stunned, he didn't expect Zhao Qingrui to say this, "There is no shortage of things, thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

"You are welcome, General. Daqin is much better now than before. If there is something missing, I can go and discuss it with my father." Zhao Qingrui nodded seriously.

Only when these soldiers are strong can they better protect Daqin.

Especially after going through the modern education, Zhao Qingrui has a good impression of these soldiers.

"Your Highness has a heart. If you want to talk about what is missing, it is lacking some powerful weapons. Many weapons in the army are seriously worn." Meng Tian smiled lightly, and he also saw the admiration in the little princess's eyes.

He knew that there were quite a few civil servants in the DPRK who had written about disarmament.

As for Zhao Qingrui, she could see that she really cared about these soldiers.

"The matter of weapons is in the hands of the public loser. Only now have we found two iron mines. General, please don't worry about the manufacture of weapons." There is nothing she can do about the wear and tear of weapons, and now she can only pin her hopes on the public loser. home people.

Those who are public losers are good at weapons, especially the manufacture of various offensive weapons.

The manufacture of iron weapons requires the manufacture of weapons for millions of troops. This is not a small amount of work. In fact, there are not many blacksmiths in Daqin. It is simply too much to make weapons for hundreds of thousands of troops at once. .

"Well, I understand." Meng Tian nodded, feeling a little surprised. In terms of ironware, this little princess knows about such an important matter. His Majesty really has high hopes for her.

Seeing Meng Tian's still peaceful appearance, Zhao Qingrui was a little helpless. Now there is no shortage of food, but the army is still limited to enough food, and if you want to eat meat, you can basically eat it once a month.

There are still many problems in the military that need to be solved urgently, but these problems cannot be solved in a short while.

"I want to see the construction of the Great Wall, is that okay?" She basically couldn't help Meng Tian and the others, so Zhao Qingrui simply changed the subject.

"Yes, but it's messy and dangerous over there. You need to consult His Majesty before making a decision." Meng Tian said seriously.

This Highness is the heir in His Majesty's heart, and if something happens, he can't afford it.

"I'll go and tell my father." Seeing Meng Tian agreeing, Zhao Qingrui's eyes lit up immediately.

Hearing Zhao Qingrui's words, Ying Zheng frowned, "Aren't you tired? I remember that you didn't want to move when you were in the car, but now you want to watch the construction of the Great Wall?"

Ying Zheng only felt that the girl's idea was just out of the blue, and Meng Tian must have whispered something in her ear to lure her to watch it, so he couldn't help but glared at Meng Tian viciously.

Meng Tian, ​​who suffered innocently, said: "..." He was wronged, he didn't do anything, why did His Majesty dislike him? ?
"That's right, I want to go and see, father, I'll just go and see for a while, and I promise to come back soon." Zhao Qingrui looked at her father expectantly.

"I'm worried." Those prisoners are prisoners of war, remnants of the Six Kingdoms, and prisoners of war are different from other prisoners, so he is really worried.

"There's nothing to worry about. I'm strong. Father, don't worry. I'll just take a look from a distance." I don't know what my father is worried about.

"Forget it, you go, come back early, Meng Tian, ​​look at her more." Unable to bear the girl's expectant gaze, what can he do, he can only compromise.

"Thank you, Father." Zhao Qingrui had expected that, although the old man was scary when he put on a tiger's face, his heart was still very soft, as long as she acted coquettishly, he would definitely compromise.

Being pinned down by his daughter, Ying Zheng felt a little uncomfortable when he noticed Meng Tian's gaze, feeling that his majestic image had been affected.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely protect Your Highness." Meng Tian said seriously, wondering in his heart, is Your Majesty so easy to talk to?Or, is it only in front of this Highness?
They went out with Meng Tian, ​​Yin Man was tired from the car, so she didn't go with her, but Li Si came with her.

"Is Li relatively curious about the construction of the Great Wall?" Zhao Qingrui tilted her head and looked at Li Si.

"Well, I haven't seen it before, I want to see it." Li Si said solemnly.

"I haven't seen it either. I've heard about the Great Wall blocking the Xiongnu outside the customs. I've never had the chance to see it. This time I went on a parade with my father, and I finally have a chance to see it." Zhao Qingrui nodded. , looking in the direction of the Great Wall, full of expectations.
