If you want to enter the age of navigation, what you lack is people.

In the Central Plains, the main thing is to farm. As long as you are not hungry, who would want to travel across the ocean and leave your hometown and go overseas?

Although some places overseas have fertile land, they are better than those in the Central Plains.

But it is not easy to convince these people to immigrate.

Therefore, Lu Bu decided that the first batch of people would send the captured Cao Wei soldiers.

When they gain a foothold overseas and make a fortune, and when they come back, more and more people will be willing to go overseas.

After going overseas, you can marry local indigenous peoples, promote ethnic integration, and allow them to gain a foothold faster.

These immigration sites are nails and strongholds.

...

The shipyard in Qingzhou has begun production in full swing.

First, Lu Bu ordered people to build a steel mill and start steelmaking.

Then, a large amount of wood is transported here every day.

Now, Dahua has extremely abundant forest resources.

It is not like later generations that prodigal sons use wood to produce disposable chopsticks, and excessive cutting of them leads to damage to the ecological environment.

Now, under the regulation of the court, forest deforestation is always in order.

After the cut, Lu Bu will order people to plant saplings.

After the steel mill began to produce steel, the shipyard also began to open.

At present, Dahua's shipbuilding technology ranks first in the world.

Although it is still mainly wood, the outside has begun to be wrapped in iron.

And, now they have tried to load power on the ship.

Instead of relying on waves like the previous ships.

After loading the engine and propeller, the ship's navigation speed will be increased like a flight.

The establishment of a shipyard has caused Qingzhou's labor force to become in short supply, which is simply in short supply.

Fishermen who understand shipbuilding skills are the most popular.

Their wages are thirty cents a day, which is as much as three times that of small workers on construction sites.

Moreover, this wage will continue to increase as their skills become more proficient.

In the future, forty cents a day will not be a problem.

Ships were built and all anchored in Weihaiwei and Yantaiwei.

...

During this period, Cao Cao frantically arranged defense lines in Jizhou, almost turning Jizhou into an iron barrel.

The defense of Bingzhou is also gradually strengthening.

Cao Cao can no longer afford to lose, neither Bingzhou nor Jizhou can be lost anymore.

Once these two states are lost, Cao Wei will be in a state of doom.

But even so, Cao Cao still felt unsafe.

Dahua's weapons are really too advanced and too sharp.

If you rely solely on defense, you may not be able to defend yourself.

The most important thing is to develop technology!

However, the technological levels of Cao Wei and Dahua are more than a hundred years apart?

Wanting to catch up in a short period of time is tantamount to dreams.

On this day, Cao Cao called his eldest son Cao Ang to his side.

In the original historical trajectory, Cao Cao conquered Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu knew he was defeated and surrendered to Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao was lustful. Seeing Zhang Xiu's aunt's beauty, he included Zhang Xiu's aunt in the harem.

Zhang Xiu felt insulted, rebelled in anger, and caught Cao Cao off guard.

In the end, it was his eldest son Cao Ang who gave the war horse to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was able to survive, and Cao Ang lost his life because of this.

In this world, because of Lu Bu's arrival, this incident did not happen at all, and Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang did not lose his life because of this.

Cao Ang is smart and has a tough and humble personality. It can be said that he has many advantages and is deeply loved by Cao Cao.

If nothing unexpected happens, Cao Ang will be made the crown prince and become the heir to the throne.

However, Cao Wei has been hanging and beaten by Dahua recently and has lost all his territory.

The Cao Wei tang made people panic, and Cao Cao had no intention of establishing a prince.

It was very open, and Cao Ang came to the palace.

"Sons, please see the father!"

Looking at the tall and handsome eldest son Cao Ang, Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction.

Cao Cao couldn't help but say to Cao Ang, "Anger, sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Father!"

After Cao Ang sat down sideways, Cao Cao couldn't help but say to Cao Ang: "An'er, this time the father is preparing to marry Tadun. You will marry Tadun's daughter and treat it as your princess. This time you will go to the wedding!"

What?

So fast?

The situation in Cao Wei has been tight recently, so Cao Cao intends to unite with Wu Heng’s Tadun to resist Dahua together.

Wu Heng also understood the truth that his lips were lost and his teeth were cold. If Cao Wei was annexed by Dahua, then Wu Heng would not have a good life.

Therefore, the two hit it off.

Of course, for the sake of his own nation, Tadun will have the conditions to support Cao Cao.

But he would never give his all to support Cao Cao.

Because, after all, they are nomadic peoples. If Dahua is too strong, they can migrate and avoid their edge.

The two sides join forces and trust each other, so marriage is the best choice.

In order to stabilize the relationship between the two parties, Cao Cao decided to let his eldest son marry Tadun's daughter as the crown princess.

Cao Ang also knew about this decision.

Cao Ang didn't like Wu Heng's women at all. In Cao Ang's opinion, Wu Heng was just a group of barbarians.

Wuheng people are the most valuable young people, while the elderly have no human rights at all.

The young man killed his father and brother, which did not violate their laws, but could not harm her mother.

After Wu Heng's woman got married, when her husband died, she would marry her younger brother-in-law. When her younger brother-in-law died, she would marry her younger brother-in-law and get a son. If her younger brother-in-law had no son, it would be the other uncles' turn.

There was a whole uncivilized barbarian.

Cao Ang felt tired of marrying a woman from such a nation and becoming his wife.

But this is politics. If you are born as the eldest son of the Huang family, marriage is not something you can decide.

Even if I don’t want to, I can only pinch my nose and recognize it.

However, Cao Ang did not expect that things would be so fast.

Now my father actually asked me to go to welcome the bride. Is the current situation in our Great Wei Kingdom so crisis?

Cao Ang couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Father, I know, I will set off on my trip."

Cao Cao stared at Cao Ang and said, "An'er, this time, my father will give you 10,000 troops. When you reach Tadun, you can take the opportunity to kill Tadun, kill those leaders of Wuheng, integrate Wuheng, and turn Wuheng into our soldiers."

What?

This time, Cao Ang was really surprised.

It turned out that the father asked him to bring 10,000 people to propose marriage, but he actually had this kind of thought.

But how can this be done?

It was obviously a marriage to someone else, even if I don’t like Wu Heng’s woman, I can’t do this!
Chapter completed!
