After saying that, Zheng Ping and the other two, Ma Qiang looked at Lou Ban and Pan Feng and the other two.

In the past, Lou Ban had committed a taboo in his promise to naturalize the Xianbei tribe by Ma Qiang to remove him from his position as the governor of Dongwuhuan County and was demoted to the captain of the cavalry of the Ocean Fleet.

Now that Lou Ban has returned from the ocean, he can be regarded as a redeeming his sins.

"Lou class!"

"General!" Lou Ban hurriedly stood up and bowed, then looked at Ma Qiang, with a hint of worry and hope in his eyes.

"I read the report that Commander Zheng gave me. When facing the barbarians in Dongsheng Prefecture, you rushed forward and made a lot of contributions.

The Ocean Fleet will be trimmed in a short time, so I will give you two choices.

One is to return to Dongwuhuan County, and you will continue to be the county magistrate.

One is to go to Liangzhou. Yu Fuluo was in trouble in the Western Regions. When the Central Plains incident occurs, I will send troops to the Western Regions. If you go there, you can first make a foresight and spy on the situation in the Western Regions."

"I am willing to go to Liangzhou!"

Ma Qiang smiled. He was a little hesitant to see that he was out of the building, but fortunately, he finally made the right choice.

"Not that hurry. I've been back in the ocean for so long. Let's go back to Wuhuan first. I'll give you three months off. Starting tomorrow, Guangzong will report it three months later. Is it okay?"

"Thank you, General!"

"Okay, let's call me sir in the future."

Lou Ban was stunned for a moment, looked at Ma Qiang who was smiling, and felt a little sore in his nose.

Speaking of which, Ma Qiang accepted him as his disciples earlier than Zhuge Liang and others, but now everyone knows that Zhuge Liang and others are Ma Qiang's disciples, and how many people know about his class.

He even thought he had been abandoned by Ma Qiang, which was one of the reasons why he was fearless and charged forward every time he fought in Dongshengzhou.

"gentlemen..."

"Well, I'll introduce some of your junior brothers to you in the future.

The situation in the Western Regions is no more complicated than that in Dongshengzhou. I will talk to you in detail when you return to Guangzong.”

"promise!"

Lou Ban's promise can be said to be full of energy.

Ma Qiang looked at Pan Feng again and said, "The navy can only fight on the water, and it still depends on infantry to occupy the city.

Wushan, I want you to build a Marine Corps, mainly responsible for landing on the beach, tentatively set to be a battalion-level organization, and then expand to a military-level organization after the training is completed and passed the acceptance. Are you willing?"

Pan Feng said, "Feng was just a woodcutter in the mountains. Fortunately, there was Duke Han and then a general who valued him. How could he not die if he did not serve him?"

Pan Feng was very simple. On that day, Han Fu told him that he would follow Ma Qiang in the future, and he would follow Ma Qiang to death. He would do whatever Ma Qiang asked him to do.

While Ma Qiang was commending and arranging the rewards and arrangements for the people returning from the ocean, Lin Zhi was reading the "Diary of the Navigation" written by Xu Wen in the room not far away.

There are many contents in the diary, and Xu Wen even drew many illustrations with pencils, such as the Mayan pyramids, whales on the sea, giant bears on the island, and the camps of the Murdoch tribe.

"Xu Ji, it's very good. This diary can be revised slightly and you can arrange for printing!"

“Print?”

"Yes, the general said that this ocean-going ocean has a far-reaching impact on the future of the Han Dynasty, and we must promote it with all our might.

If you go to the teahouse later, you should be able to hear the news about your return from the ocean.

Your diary should also be published into a book so that everyone in the world knows that there is also a world overseas for my great man.”

"This... the writing style below is average, and publishing a book will probably make you laugh, right?"

In Xu Wen's mind, those who can write books are great scholars, and at most he has the knowledge, he can only write a press release.

"You can say you can, just do it. Starting today, you can sort out your diary and wait until Guangzong, and prepare to print it immediately. By the way, if you have time, you can draw more illustrations, and books with pictures are easy to sell!"

"Ah? Why?"

"There are few people in this world who are willing to spend their brains. Look at how many people buy books in bookstores and how many people go to teahouses to listen to books."

Linzhi can also understand the book industry.

——

A few days later, Ma Qiang led his team back to the plains on the same route and then took a train to Guangzong.

Wow~~

With a whistle, the train slowly stopped in front of Ma Qiang and others.

"Is this a train? It's a clever and amazing thing! It's incredible!"

Whether it is Sun Ce or Zhou Yu, whether it is Huang Quan or Haiwa, those who see the train for the first time feel like they are in a dream.

Among these people, Haiwa and other Dongyi envoys were the most frightened, and many people even knelt down and bowed directly when they saw the train.

For these natives in Dongshengzhou who have never even seen carriages, trains are indeed a bit too sci-fi.

"There are so many skilled craftsmen under the command of the general..." Sun Jian murmured to himself.

When Liu Bei, who was next to him, heard Sun Jian say this, he said, "This train was developed by the Research Institute, and the leading Academician Zhang Ning is one of the disciples of the General."

"I have been in the south for several years, but I have become a frog in the well, which makes Xuande Gong laugh."

“Hey, it was almost the same when I saw the train for the first time.

General Wentai, look, this train does not take ordinary roads, but railways. These are all good steel..."

Without Liu Bei's words, Sun Jian, who was sitting on the four-wheeler, really didn't pay attention.

Now that I noticed it, Sun Jian realized how exaggerated the train was.

He actually lays steel on the ground like wood as tracks?

Do your parents know that you are so prodigal?

"Gongjin, how far is it from the plain to Guangzong? How much armour can we build so much steel?"

Zhou Yu's face was like bitter gourd, and he didn't know how to answer Sun Ce's question.

How many ordnances can be built?

So much steel is no longer a question of how much ordnance can be created, but a question of how much people you have to use so much ordnance.

How exaggerated is Hebei’s steel production?

After all, Sun Ce and others were defeated, so they were only amazed when they saw this scene, while Huang Quanze, who represented Liu Zhang, was already desperate.

He is no longer able to understand the strength of Hebei. Perhaps the best outcome is to negotiate and surrender with the Hebei court.

"Okay, everyone should get on the train, Baiyan, are you going to the roof of the car or go in with us?"

Bai Yan looked at the "narrow" carriage and finally chose to lie down on the roof and take a breather.

The carriage is quite spacious for people, and it is no different from being imprisoned.

"Dad, I want to go up too~"

When Sun Shangxiang saw Bai Yan jumping up and flying to the roof of the car, his eyes lit up.

She had long wanted to fuck Baiyan, and she had never seen such a big white cat since she was a child.

"Don't talk nonsense, Yi'er, please take a closer look at Shangxiang later, don't let him run around at will!"

"Boy understand!"

The Yier Sun Jian mentioned was Sun Jian's third son Sun Yi, who was thirteen or fourteen years old at that time.

Below Sun Yi, there are Sun Kuang and Sun Lang, the youngest of whom is about seven or eight years old at this time.
