"Are you inviting me out just to see the city walls of your Great Zhou Dynasty?"
Wan Yanyue looked at the towering city wall with a trace of worry in her eyes. It's just that she hid it well and was not discovered by others.
"Princess, you might as well feel the hardness of the cement city wall for yourself."
"I would also like to know if this cement is as magical as you boast!"
Wan Yanyue said coldly, immediately got out of the carriage and came to the city wall.
Although she maintains a cold attitude on the surface at this moment. But deep down in her heart, she could not help but marvel.
The imperial palace of Hou Jin Dynasty was also constructed of wood and stone, and the city walls were entirely built of stone.
But most of the gaps between the stones in those city walls are filled with soil. A large amount of sand can be removed with a single click of your fingers.
However, looking at the city walls of Da Zhou, the spaces between the stones are filled with a gray substance.
Not to mention the perfect fit, the texture is extremely hard.
Wan Yanyue even took out the dagger she carried with her, but despite all her efforts, she only made a shallow scratch on the cement.
Yang Dong stood aside and silently watched Wan Yanyue's every move.
After seeing Yan Yue try, he continued:
"I think the princess already has some understanding of the strength of cement. Next, let's go to another place."
This time, Wan Yanyue didn't speak harshly. Instead, he felt a little disappointed and turned around and got into the carriage.
After about a stick of incense, the carriage stopped steadily in an inconspicuous place in the capital.
"Princess, please come with me."
After Yang Dong finished speaking, he took the initiative to lead the way. After entering an ordinary courtyard, he turned around and walked into the cellar, opening the cellar door.
On the other side, Wan Yanyue only hesitated slightly and followed.
If Yang Dong wanted to harm her, he would not have saved her in the first place. So there's nothing to be afraid of.
But as soon as she entered the cellar, she was shocked by the sight before her!
Looking around, the entire underground space stretches as far as the eye can see, filled with a large amount of food.
The grains were piled into hills and placed neatly in the warehouse.
"This is……"
Wan Yanyue swallowed with some difficulty, organized her words, and then asked in disbelief:
"Is this your granary in Zhou Dynasty?"
"Such a huge stock can probably feed the whole city for ten days, right?"
Yang Dong smiled and nodded, and immediately handed a scroll in his hand to Wan Yanyue.
"Princess, please look, this is the location of the granary in the capital city of Great Zhou. I can take you to see wherever the princess wants to go."
Wan Yanyue came back to her senses and subconsciously looked at the scroll handed over by Yang Dong.
Then she suddenly realized that something was very wrong!
No matter which country it is, the location of the granary is extremely important. Moreover, the Hou Jin Dynasty is still an enemy of the Zhou Dynasty.
But Xiaodongzi showed such a precious map to herself. Could it be that there was some fraud in it?
"Xiao Dongzi, what is your purpose?"
"It's so easy to show your capital's food reserves to a princess of this palace. Aren't you afraid of being accused of treason?"
Yang Dong just smiled faintly, and then a look of compassion appeared on his face.
"If the princess thinks so, she is looking down upon her."
Speaking of this, his eyes gradually became serious.
"Princess Wanyan, as the saying goes, the people suffer when the army prospers, and when the army dies, the people suffer. If the two armies fight, the people on both sides will only suffer."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy to accumulate food and grass after I come back!"
Wan Yanyue took a deep look at Yang Dong, and her eyes flashed with brilliance. Xiao Dongzi is really a talent if he can speak clearly!
She lowered her head and looked at the scroll in her hand. What I saw on this scroll was a map of the capital city.
On this picture, dozens of densely packed small red dots are marked.
She frowned slightly and asked subconsciously:
"Xiao Dongzi, the red dot above is..."
"This is the location of my Dazhou Granary. Which one do you want to see, princess? I will take you there."
Hearing this, Wan Yanyue's heart sank.
Hou Jin was eyeing the capital of Zhou Dynasty. As the princess of Hou Jin, she naturally knew it very well.
However, the walls of the capital city of the Great Zhou Dynasty are strong. If you want to break through, you need to encircle and attack them and fight like a trapped beast.
But one of the key points of this fighting method is that the food and grass in the capital city of the Great Zhou Dynasty is not sufficient.
At this moment, she already understood what Yang Dong meant. The other party was clearly telling her that Da Zhou had stored a large amount of food and grass and was not afraid of siege.
But...a few days ago, Luozhou in the Great Zhou Dynasty just suffered from floods. Do you really have so much food and grass reserves in this big week?
Thinking of this, she pointed at one of the red dots and said:
"This place is quite close to the place where I was attacked. Why don't we go there and have a look?"
Yang Dong smiled slightly, nodded and said:
"As the princess wishes."
…
Before I knew it, the sun was setting.
In the carriage, Yang Dong still looked calm, but Wan Yanyue's face next to him became much more ugly.
She was like a volcano that was about to erupt at any time.
"Your Highness Princess, can we talk about the matter of passing through Youzhou again?"
Wanyan Yue frowned slightly, then snorted coldly:
"Xiao Dongzi, go ahead and dream of your spring and autumn dream! Cement is so important, how can I let you take this opportunity to go to Daqin to recruit reinforcements?"
As she spoke, she was already making calculations in her mind.
If Da Qin had cement, then Hou Jin would be really in danger.
The border between Da Qin and Hou Jin was already rugged. If the passes were built with cement, then the Later Jin Dynasty would no longer be a threat to the people of Qin.
On the other hand, Da Qin's swordsmen and axemen could directly threaten Hou Jin's border passes through the passes. Then Jin had no danger to defend, so he could only retreat to the depths of the grassland.
No, Xiao Dongzi cannot be allowed to deliver cement to Da Qin no matter what.
Thinking of this, Wan Yanyue even had the idea of killing people and silencing them. But in just a moment, she gave up easily.
Yang Dong ignored his life-saving grace for the moment. If he really wanted to take action, how could he, a weak woman, defeat a warrior on the other side?
Besides, even if he was killed, Dazhou would still have someone else making cement.
Thinking of this, Wan Yanyue felt depressed. 33
"You want me to take you to Youzhou, unless you are willing to sell me the cement as well."
"But... I think you're not that stupid. How could you sell such important strategic materials to an enemy country?"
"Who said I won't sell it?"
Yang Dong suddenly spoke and looked at Wan Yanyue with a half-smile.
"Ah? What did you say?"
Wanyanyue's delicate body trembled, and a look of astonishment flashed across her face.
Some people died, but not completely...
