After leaving the troublesome matter to the people in the imperial city, Yun Zheng focused on dealing with his own affairs.
"What are you thinking about?"
On the way back to the hillside from the coal mine, Miaoyin saw that Yun Zheng was a little absent-minded and couldn't help but ask him.
"nothing."
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "I was just thinking about how to make cement production faster."
Yun Zheng has already made the original cement.
Coincidentally, the slag from iron smelting came in handy.
Through simple tests, the strength of this cement is acceptable.
However, it is definitely incomparable with modern cement.
The key is that the production efficiency is really low.
...
...
Speaking of cement, Miaoyin was even more curious, "Did you read the method of making cement in that ancient book?"
"Yes!" Yun Zheng nodded and smiled.
"This ancient book you mentioned is really amazing."
Miaoyin exclaimed in amazement, "The person who wrote that book must be a genius!"
A rare genius?
Isn't he a rare genius?
That is the crystallization of the wisdom of so many people!
But unfortunately, he is only a half-baked one.
In fact, it's not even half-baked.
Oh, forget it!
How to improve production efficiency should be left to those who work in cement workshops in the future!
There are experts among the people!
Many things are constantly improved in production practice.
You'd better just take out the money and offer a reward, and let the workers brainstorm!
Having made up his mind, Yun Zheng no longer worried about it.
As the two were walking and talking, several cavalrymen appeared at the end of their sight.
Several people came all the way at a high speed. After meeting Yun Zheng and his team, they quickly turned over and dismounted, trotting to Yun Zheng, "Your Highness, the vanguard of Beihuan has arrived at the edge of the hill. The leader Gu Ge said he has something important to ask for your Highness! In addition, the follow-up large force of Beihuan has passed Bailang Lake, and General Yu has led his troops to meet them!"
"good!"
Yun Zheng smiled with satisfaction and asked again: "Did Guge say what the important matter was?"
"No."
The man replied, "Guge wanted to see Princess Jiayao first, but no one dared to let him go without your Highness's permission! However, judging from Guge's appearance, it must be a very urgent matter."
Is it urgent?
Yun Zheng thought for a moment and immediately ordered the team to speed up and rush to the edge of the hill.
As it was getting dark, Yun Zheng and his team finally rushed back to the edge of the hill.
At this moment, Guge was extremely anxious.
Seeing Yun Zheng coming in under the protection of Tong Gang and others, Gu Ge hurriedly asked: "Are you the King of Jingbei?"
"good!"
Yun Zheng nodded slightly, "I heard that you have something important to ask me to do?"
"Meet King Jingbei!"
Gu Ge first lowered his posture and saluted Yun Zheng, then hurriedly said: "I am Gu Ge, the commander of the Royal Guards. I beg the prince to let me meet Princess Jia Yao first, and then I will report the important matters to you..."
"Come with me!"
Yun Zheng was too lazy to argue with him and walked towards the courtyard where Guge was imprisoned.
Soon, Yun Zheng brought Guge to find Jia Yao.
Although Jia Yao has been under house arrest on the edge of the mountain these days, Yun Zheng has very little time to meet Jia Yao.
The last time he saw Jia Yao was probably five or six days ago.
Compared to last time, Jiayao seemed to be thinner.
Even though Yun Zheng had never been harsh on Jia Yao in terms of food, Jia Yao was still getting thinner day by day.
Yun Zheng knew that Jia Yao’s weight loss was due to too much psychological pressure.
However, he never comforted Jia Yao.
Given their relationship, if he comes to comfort Jiayao again, it would seem like the cat crying over the rat.
Looking at the thin Jiayao, Guge couldn't help but have red eyes.
"Princess……"
Gu Ge's voice trembled, and he felt something blocked in his throat.
"I'm fine."
Jia Yao waved his hands tiredly, "Hold back your tears! Don't let others laugh at me, a Beihuan man!"
"yes!"
Gu Ge obeyed the order and wiped away the tears from his eyes.
"I say, are you going to talk about your business or not?"
Yun Zheng frowned and looked at Gu Ge, and said impatiently: "If you don't say anything, I will go to rest!"
“Speak, speak!”
Gu Ge didn't care about feeling sorry for Jia Yao anymore, and hurriedly said: "We have received news that Gui Fang is likely to unite with Dayue Kingdom and Qiuchi to attack us in the fall!"
Hearing Guge's words, Jia Yao couldn't help but shudder all over.
To be honest, it is not surprising that Guifang attacked Beihuan.
Beihuan is in such a state now, it would be strange if Guifang didn't take advantage of the situation!
However, she did not expect that Guifang would join forces with Dayue Kingdom and Qiuchi to launch an attack on their territory.
After a brief moment of distraction, Jia Yao suddenly let out a long sigh of relief.
This may not be bad news for Beihuan.
If these three countries unite, they will definitely split their forces into two routes.
If nothing unexpected happens, they should send troops all the way from Guifang, cross the territory of Quanrong, and directly attack Qinlin grassland.
Another route should be to send troops from Qiuchi, cross the territory of Beimoduo, and attack the horse-grassland.
But now, the horse-grazing grassland has become a major area for the government.
With Yun Zheng's character, as long as the opponent dares to attack this side, Yun Zheng will definitely beat him to death.
In this way, Da Gan will be forced to be involved in this war, and she doesn't need to worry about Yun Zheng sitting on the sidelines and watching the fight.
It would be more effective for the enemy to damage Yun Zheng's interests than to make any alliance with him!
Yun Zheng frowned slightly and asked suspiciously: "Where did you get this news?"
"Let me say this!"
Jia Yao took over the conversation, "When we defeated Gui Fang six years ago, we planted a spy in Gui Fang to ensure that if there was any unusual movement from Gui Fang, we would be the first to get the news..."
A traitor?
Yun Zheng lowered his brows in thought.
His judgment is consistent with Jia Yao's.
If the three countries send troops together, it can basically be determined in advance that they will be divided into two routes.
They had previously threatened Qiuchi with force to withdraw its troops from Beimoduo's territory.
It is understandable that Qiu Chi wants to seek revenge on them.
It is understandable that Guifang wanted to take advantage of Beihuan's weakness to plunder Beihuan!
But what the hell is this Dayue Kingdom?
He hasn't even started the fight yet, and the Dayue Kingdom dares to get involved?
This is a typical example of someone who has never suffered the beatings of society!
Yun Zheng complained in his heart for a while, and then asked Gu Ge: "Have they determined the specific time for sending troops?"
"The specific time has not yet been determined."
Guge replied: "We just received news that the three countries have been in close contact recently, and the Guifang are preparing a large army..."
The approximate time of the attack is easy to determine.
It should basically be around the autumn harvest.
In this way, by the time their army officially began the attack, both Dagan and Beihuan had completed the autumn harvest.
This is a great time to plunder!
Their own country has also completed the autumn harvest and can ensure the subsequent supply of food and fodder.
Is that so?
Yun Zheng fell into deep thought again.
If the news is true, Qiuchi is playing with fire!
It is a bit far for the Northern Army to attack Guifang, but it is not very far to attack Qiuchi.
If the news is true, he can consider killing Qiu Chi first before the enemy completes their troop assembly!
Yun Zheng pondered for a while, then immediately called Tong Gang forward and whispered in his ear.
After a moment, Tong Gang took the order and left...
