Chapter 661
"Wu Wu Wu..."
The sound of the siren came out one after another in the workshop. The noise that Xiao Ming used to make was now like fairy music.
The emergence of steam locomotive not only means that the steel level and lathe processing level of Qingzhou can produce the spare parts needed by steam locomotive.
At the same time, for him, it was also the beginning of the barbarians' losing the advantage of horse mobility. As long as he could quickly transport troops, the northern barbarians would no longer be a threat.
However, after a while of excitement, Xiao Ming calmed down again, and the meal was to be eaten one by one.
Steam locomotives have been developed, but the laying of rails requires a lot of steel, and now he can only choose to lay the key route.
And even that is a huge financial burden.
Although he has gradually surpassed the West in science and technology, he is far less wealthy than the western countries through plunder in terms of wealth.
In comparison, he is really destitute. For him, the railway construction is not a technological problem, but an economic one.
After verifying that Lin Wentao's steam locomotive could work, Xiao Ming left with a group of officials. Next, it's time to discuss tightening the belt to repair the railway.
At the same time, he was also eager to end the Northern War as soon as possible, so that he could have peace of mind for development.
……
Qingzhou.
After five days of marching, Lu Fei and ye Qingyun have arrived at the city where the king of Liang lives.
These days, under the attack of the barbarians, they are moving very slowly to protect the grain road. If they had followed the plan, they would have taken Qingzhou City at this time.
However, when they arrived in Qingzhou, they suddenly found that the city was not as easy to capture as they thought.
Because Qingzhou City faces water on one side and mountains on three sides, its location is very dangerous.
"The king of Liang lost all his troops. At this time, there must not be many soldiers in the city. If he could suddenly enter the city, he would be able to capture Qingzhou City at one stroke." Said Luffy.
Ye Qingyun looks at the wide river in front of Qingzhou City. This is not Qingzhou. They have no boats to use. It's impossible to attack from the front. Now the barbarians are still harassing. If they can't take Qingzhou City in time, they will lose more soldiers.
At this time, his eyes swept over the mountains on both sides of Qingzhou, and said: "these high mountains may not have no path to go through. Let's offer a reward to find the path from the mountains to the city."
"Well, I mean it, too." Lu Fei answered. He called a Duwei of Guoyi and said a few words to him. That Duwei of Guoyi took orders and left.
Luo Hong said at this time: "Qingzhou City has only one wall. If you can find a mountain road, you can directly enter the city. But if there is a mountain road, how can Liang Wang not know and leave a flaw?"
"It's better to try than to look at Qingzhou. "Luffy said carelessly.
People thought it was.
After setting up camp outside Qingzhou City for a night, Lu Fei's men arrived the next day with a reward.
Lu Fei was overjoyed when he heard that he was in a hurry to the gate of the camp and met the people who came to receive the reward.
This is a middle-aged man with a bow and arrow on his back. He is followed by a boy of 15-6 years old. The boy seems to be afraid of others. He hides behind the middle-aged man and looks at the soldiers coming and going with timid eyes. But the middle-aged man's eyes also contain a little uneasiness and dare not look at Lu Fei with his right eyes.
Lu Fei was forthright. He laughed and said, "please come inside, brother."
The middle-aged man nodded. He looked at the tent surrounded by a strange chariot. He hesitated, as if he had something to say. Lufei understood immediately, and his opponent's general said: "take a hundred taels of silver for this brother."
One hundred taels of silver is exactly the amount of reward offered by Lu Fei. The general ran back to the camp with one hundred taels of silver.
The middle-aged man was relieved to see the silver and said to Lu Fei, "general Xie."
"That's what you deserve." Lu Fei laughs.
After collecting one hundred taels of silver, the middle-aged man said, "general, please follow the grass people." Then the middle-aged people went out.
Lu Fei thought that it would waste a lot of time, so he asked Ye Qingyun to call more than 1000 riders, and let two soldiers, one with a middle-aged man and the other with a young man, follow them.
According to the middle-aged man's words, the group walked south and stopped for about six li. The middle-aged man got off the horse and pointed to the front road, "general, this is the path that the grass people go up the mountain. You can go up the mountain along this path."
Lufei looked in the direction of the middle-aged man's fingers. In front of him was a winding path hidden in the grass.
He and the crowd immediately dismounted and climbed up the path to the top of the mountain. Looking down, he saw a straight cliff, 15 meters high. Ye Qingyun frowned tightly and said, "it's too dangerous. If it falls down, it will be dead."
Lu Fei had the same feeling. This place is not only smooth, but also very narrow. It is only 30 cm wide, and the stone slope is almost 90 degrees from the ground. Most people dare not try it."Narrow, steep and slippery." Lu Fei concluded.
Hearing the two people's comments, the middle-aged man was a little nervous and said, "general, this is the cliff with the lowest distance from the three mountains to the ground. Other places have a height of 50 steps. It's no problem to go down from here. Sometimes I use ropes to go down from here when I hunt.
The middle-aged man's words made Lu Fei's mind shine. Climbing the rope was one of the training subjects of the Fengguo army.
If you throw some rope down here, you can sneak into Qingzhou City.
With this in mind, Lufei says what he thinks. Ye Qingyun nods and agrees. He sends the soldiers back to the barracks to get the ropes. The middle-aged man is also relieved, for fear that these fierce soldiers will treat him as a liar.
The soldiers came back soon and took seven or eight long and thick hemp ropes. According to Lufei's method, the soldiers tied the hemp rope to an old tree on the edge of the cliff, and then they came down and tied other hemp ropes to different trees.
"Let's have a surprise attack this time!" Lufei ordered his cavalry to send 20000 riflemen up the mountain.
At this time, he observed Qingzhou City through telescope. As he imagined, there were not many soldiers in Qingzhou City. This time, the second prince was killed, the Liang army was destroyed, and other states and counties were captured by the Yong army. The king of Liang could not gather up many troops temporarily. These 20000 people were enough.
Below them are just some folk houses. Their own soldiers can stand on their feet when they go down from here and provide the opportunity for the follow-up soldiers to enter the city safely.
After a while, 20000 riflemen arrived at the top of the mountain. At this time, Luffy ordered: "go down the rope! “
