In 265 BC, the first month of the seventh year of King Wucheng.

Many major events that happened in Ji Kang's previous life were brewing. The situation between the five countries of Yan, Qin, Zhao, Han and Qi was even more undercurrent. Envoys from various countries were shuttled back and forth, the armies of various countries were gathering towards the border, and the secret spies from various countries were even more slashing.

Even the Xiongnu Khan on the grassland sent wolf cavalry from the royal court to convey the orders of gathering to the tribes on the vast grassland.

The capital of Zhao State, Handan, Zhao Royal Palace.

After Ji Kang's great-grandfather, King Wuling of Zhao, ascended the throne, Zhao State implemented a series of reforms. Politically, the monarch and ministers, generals and ministers were harmonious, Feiyi, Lou Yan, Lin Xiangru, Yu Qing, Zhao Sheng, Zhao She, Lian Po, Li Mu and other good prime ministers emerged in many ways.

Especially in military affairs, the implementation of "Hu Clothing and Cavalry" in Zhao State made the combat effectiveness of Zhao State's army unprecedentedly improve. Although the Qin army was strong, it was defeated several times by Zhao State. When Zhao State was on the reign of Ji Kang's great-grandfather, King Wuling of Zhao State, he defeated Linhu in the west, Loufan in the north, and destroyed Zhongshan in the north, and expanded the land for more than a thousand miles, and his national strength was unprecedentedly strong.

But in his later years, King Wuling of Zhao made a fatal mistake and hesitated to choose a successor. Finally, he made his youngest son, Ji Kang's grandfather Zhao He, the king.

This made Ji Kang's grandfather Zhao He's eldest brother, Zhao Zhang, who was the prince of Zhao State, Zhao Zhang, who was very unhappy. In 295 BC, he launched a rebellion. Zhao Cheng, the younger brother of Zhao Wuling, and general Li Dui led his army to quell the rebellion. Zhao Zhang, the king of Daicheng, fled to the palace of King Wuling's sand dunes, trying to let his father Zhao Wuling protect him, but was killed. Ji Kang's great-grandfather Zhao Wuling was also besieged by Zhao Cheng and general Li Dui and starved to death.

In 295 BC, the "Sand Dunes Rebellion" that occurred in Zhao State shocked all countries. Although Zhao State's national strength declined after this incident, it was still strong. Therefore, during the reign of Ji Kang's grandfather, King Huiwen of Zhao, Zhao State still made various countries, especially Qin State, dare not invade at will.

After more than 20 years of development, the national strength became stronger. In order to test the weakness of Zhao, in 269 BC, Qin sent general Hu Yang to lead tens of thousands of elite troops to cross Shangdang in South Korea to attack Zhao's king, and was defeated by the elite thunder cavalry of the Zhao army led by Zhao She. This made the current talented and powerful Qin King Yingji extremely depressed, and even regarded Zhao as a thorn in Qin's side, and wanted to get rid of it quickly.

Last year, Ji Kang's grandfather, King Zhao Huiwen, died, and Zhao Dan, who ascended the throne, was only thirteen or fourteen years old. He was temporarily regent by Ji Kang's grandmother Zhao Wei. King Yingji of Qin and Prime Minister Fan Sui finally saw the opportunity.

At this time, Ji Kang's grandmother Zhao Weihou was holding a silk thread in his hand and looking at it with a slightly frown. This was an urgent secret letter from the secret spy from Zhao State in Yan State.

After reading it, he handed it to his son sitting next to him, King Zhao Dan, the uncle of Ji Kang. He then said to the four ministers who had read this letter and were kneeling down below: "What do you think about this letter?"

The elegant man sitting on the left stood up and bowed and said, "Empress Dowager, the king, from this letter, it may be true that Qin's offense may be, but Yan is cowardly. I don't believe that Yan dares to invade our Zhao."

"As for the Huns, I think the Huns' Chanyu would not miss the opportunity to rob our Zhao State on a small scale. As for the large-scale attack, I think the Huns' Chanyu will not. Are they not worried about the revenge of our Zhao State?"

The Empress Dowager looked at an old man sitting on the right and said, "Lin Shangqing, do you agree with your opinion on Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng?"

Lin Xiangru, the Shangqing of Zhao State who was over 70 years old, thought for a while and said, "From this letter, I think it is true, and the mastermind of the matter must be Qin Xiang Fan Sui."

"Qin State had the intention to offend me, so if you don't have to consider it, you will definitely invade our country; although the King of Yan was cowardly, he had long been resentful of our Zhao State. In addition, Qin State has been provoking me and Zhao State for many years, so it is very likely that Yan State will send troops and cannot be ruled out.

More importantly, if the Xiongnu Khan dared to lead 100,000 wolf cavalry to attack our Zhao State, it must be that the Xiongnu Khan saw the opportunity to invade our Zhao State, so there is a great possibility that the three parties will attack us."

Queen Zhao Wei nodded and said to the two old ministers who were sitting below: "Prime Minister Yu Qing, Pingyang Jun, what do you two think?"

Yu Qing and Zhao Bao looked at each other. Zhao Bao, the king of Pingyang, who was over 50, stood up and said, "I think this matter is very likely. Recently, the border friction between Qin and Yan countries and me has been constantly on the border, so we must guard against it."

Prime Minister Yu Qing also nodded from the side and said, "Empress Dowager, it seems that the King of Qin is very planning this time. I think we must be prepared for both ways. On the one hand, we are ready to prepare for war actively, and on the other hand, our State of Zhao still needs to seek foreign aid. Empress Dowager, can you trust Qi and ask the King of Qi to send troops to help me?"

After hearing this, Empress Zhao Wei nodded and said, "It seems that Qin is indeed planning very much this time. I will send a letter to Brother Wang and ask Qi to send troops to help. My dear friends, the king is young, and I hope you will help us all to overcome difficulties together."

All the ministers stood together: "Please don't worry, the king, please don't worry, and I will do my best to assist the queen mother, the king."

...

Ji Kang had forgotten the information that Ji Bo sent to Zhao State.

He has arrived at Xinchang Anshan Villa at this moment.

Although it is already the beginning of spring, the winter in Liaodong County this year is much warmer than in previous years. However, the remaining snow is still piled up on the way to Dagushan.

Dagu Mountain is not too high. According to Ji Kang's previous life, it was more than 200 meters above sea level.

Accompanied by Junhou Shiyong and others, Ji Kang led the boss Ji Mao, Shi Gan and his group of people to climb to the top of the mountain with the help of the soldiers along a path that had been stepped on by everyone.

When I came to the iron ore found by the miners on the top of the mountain, a large area of ​​residual snow nearby had been cleaned up. It looked like the iron ore with clear dust and dark red color was presented nakedly in front of me.

Although he was prepared, Ji Kang was also very excited.

In his previous life, although this largest open-pit iron ore in Asia had been stolen by foreigners and had been excavated for more than ten years, bullying its real owner, it has made great contributions to the people of this land for decades to produce more than 4 million tons of steel each year.

The annual output of this Dagu Mountain is several times more steel than the total steel of the Han and Tang dynasties in their previous lives, not to mention the current Warring States heroes.

Ji Kang turned around and said to Shi Yong behind him: "Have the bandits escorted from each county and county arrived?"

"Young Master Qi, there are more than 2,000 people who arrived in advance. There are more than 6,000 bandits who will be escorted here one after another in the future." Shi Yong replied hurriedly.

Pointing to a large area at the foot of Dagu Mountain, Ji Kang said again: "Let them level this place first. Then start building the road, and build it all the way to the top of the mountain, and build it across the mountain. Remember, although this group of people are bandits, we must let them eat and wear warmth, tell them that this is atonement for their sins and labor reform. After the mining and road construction for two years, they will start to pay their salaries. After five years, they will be registered and distributed to the land, whether to stay or leave, and they will be free."

"Shi Yong, I now appoint you as General of the General, appoint you as the chief mine manager, and then assign you three thousand soldiers to you. With Anshan Villa as the center, ten miles is the military control area, and strangers are not allowed to enter. Internal personnel are equipped with special wooden signs that can indicate their identity. If you can do this well, you will have great achievements in Liao and the country, and I will always remember you."

Shi Yong fell to the ground excitedly: "Thank you, my son, I will live up to the entrustedness of the young master."

He also said to the boss manager Ji Mao: "Ji Bo, immediately send someone to inform the audience that the eight or nine thousand bandits caught by Liaoxi County were sent to the concentration camp built in Wuwu County, so that the doctor who managed the concentration camp would also implement this policy and repair the official road in Anshan, Wuwu, as soon as possible."

Ji Mao nodded quickly and said, "No."

I remembered the small steel factories, cement factories, paper mills, glass factories, etc. I personally participated in the design and establishment of small steel factories, cement factories, paper mills, glass factories, etc. when I was the village head in my previous life to develop the economy. I remember that when the factory was closed, those bosses who were originally friends beat their chests and stamped their feet and scolded them. Ji Kang felt sad.

Ji Kang raised his head and looked at the sky without any trace of dust and said, "I'm sorry, friends, you will definitely be happy after I leave and will scold me. It's true that I'm sorry for you. But what you didn't expect was that I came to pollute the sky and the earth again, and the factories I have built again will no longer need to be destroyed, and they will be sealed and protected in the future."

After returning to Anshan Villa, Ji Kang took the ruler, compass, T-rue, triangle ruler and other tools he made in his room, climbed on a specially made table with slopes, and carefully painted it on silk with a charcoal pen.

It was like studying in the classroom of the campus in my previous life, like the girl sitting beside me in my previous life, still watching myself drawing pictures with a gentle look. I once told you that I would like to support you; I also told you that I would live together with you. But I am sorry, I said that I would live together with you.

As he drew, painted, tears flowed out of his eyes. But Ji Kang did not hesitate at all, and continued to paint on the table after touching it. Because he knew that what he was depicting was his future in this world, his relatives in this world, and even more a beautiful future for this oriental nation.

The room was silent, and only Shi Gan was helping the young master.
