Moreover, after the incident half a month ago, Ying Jing was also very sad about the weapons and armor of the army when he was busy building the city.
One of the main reasons why they had suffered such great losses in the battle half a month ago was that they did not have enough armor and weapons. They did not have enough high-quality weapons, or else they would not have sacrificed so many people.
Therefore, after this painful lesson, Ying Jing would never allow such a thing to happen to his people again.
Therefore, Ying Jing had also successively exchanged for five families who knew how to forge iron, weapons, and armor from the system's store. He still gave each of them 1,000 people to learn from.
In this way, there were more than 7,000 people in Ying Jing's territory who could forge armor and weapons.
Ying Jing also arranged for 23,000 people to mine iron ores.
Within half a month, the armors and weapons in Ying Jing's territory had been greatly improved.
Apart from bows, spears, and wooden shields, there were also crossbows, scimitars, ballistae, and sabers.
Apart from the chest plate, the arm plate, leg plate, and the helmet, all the armor had been arranged.
He had also created a crossbow that could be used to kill people at close range.
In addition to these weapons and equipment, Ying Jing also brought out a cavalry. There were not many cavalrymen, only 1,000 people. The warhorses were left behind by the Xiongnu people in the war half a month ago.
Therefore, Ying Jing had even ordered people to specially forge different weapons for these cavalrymen.
Stirrups, saddles, horseshoes, sabers, vests, and even the entire body of the horse was covered in armor.
Ying Jing wanted to turn this cavalry into a heavily armored cavalry legion.
Ying Jing understood that if there was such a cavalryman in the grasslands, no one would dare to look down on him.
However, Ying Jing understood very well that if he wanted to dominate the grasslands and deserts, the best army to use was still the light cavalry, and the best was the cavalry archers.
Therefore, if he really wanted to form a cavalry archer with strong combat power, it would definitely not be possible in a few days.
The reason why nomadic tribes like the Xiongnu could roam the grasslands was because they had grown up on horseback. To them, archery and riding horses were as simple as eating and sleeping. They had been trained since they were young.
In these matters, if it didn't take a few years, the Xiongnu people could completely crush Ying Jing's current cavalrymen.
Therefore, Ying Jing still placed his focus on equipment, which was why he chose to forge a heavy cavalry team.
If he wanted to show off on the prairie, that would have to wait until the future.
After half a month of hard work, Ying Jing's army was much stronger than before.
In addition, the construction of the city had already been completed. Ying Jing no longer feared the Xiongnu people.
Ying Jing's current city had also been named by him: Ten Thousand Year City.
It meant that this city could last for 10,000 years, and it was Ying Jing's 10,000-year-old city that was unbreakable.
Standing on the city tower of Wannian City, Ying Jing looked at the vast grassland outside. It was endless, and his mood was incomparably empty.
Ever since he came to this grassland, this was the first time that Ying Jing felt at ease. He had the feeling that he had a firm foothold. He was not afraid of being chased away by others. He had enough capital to resist the injustice that others did to him and his people.
Everything in this Ten Thousand Year City belonged to him. His subjects, his army, he had spent all his effort on this city.
After coming to this world, this was the first time Ying Jing felt so relaxed.
There were no rules and regulations that bound him here, nor were there any plots against him. There were no restrictions, and no one could even put pressure on him.
What she had to do every day was to solve the survival problems of these people. She had to work hard with her subjects to develop and strengthen them. She had to work tirelessly for the future of all of them.
Ying Jing liked this kind of life very much. It was simple, happy, full and busy, and had a unique meaning.
When Ying Jing happily stood on top of the city gate tower, opening his arms to welcome the morning sun.
In the sky, a white pigeon descended from the sky and landed steadily on Ying Jing's shoulder.
Ying Jing was stunned for a moment. He looked at the white pigeon on his shoulder.
She knew about this white pigeon. It was the messenger pigeon that Ying Jing had left behind in his fief for her substitute.
This would only be opened when there was an urgent matter. Did that mean that something urgent had happened in the fief?
Ying Jing hurriedly took the letter from the carrier pigeon. When he opened it, his expression immediately darkened.
The letter stated that Ying Zheng wanted him to return to Xianyang.
Not only that, Ying Zheng also asked Meng Tian to gather the tens of thousands of young men that Ying Jing had sent to the military camp and send them to every part of the Great Qin Empire in batches.
Moreover, there were four border troops stationed around his fief. Although they didn't clearly want to capture him, they had clearly told Ying Jing that if he dared to resist, he would be slapped to death.
After reading the letter, Ying Jing shook his head helplessly and sighed.'This Ying Zheng still won't let me go. I'm his son, but he's still worried about me.'
It could also be said that Ying Zheng did not trust any of his sons at all.
However, there were suspicious signs now and they had to be investigated thoroughly.
Ying Jing was also very clear that Ying Zheng would be suspicious of him because of those people who kept appearing. This was something that was certain, and sooner or later, he would have to ask him about it.
However, Ying Jing didn't expect this to happen so quickly.
And now, Ying Zheng had taken drastic measures to win Jing back to Xianyang, so that he could explain this matter to him.
If he could explain it clearly, everything would be fine.
If he couldn't explain it clearly, being imprisoned or thrown into prison was already treating him well.
Moreover, this matter might even implicate Ying Zheng's mother in the harem.
Moreover, for the sake of the country, there was nothing that Ying Zheng would not do. He was truly ruthless.
Ying Jing didn't think that if something happened to him this time, his mother would be fine in the harem.
Moreover, his eighteenth brother, Huhai, had led an extravagant private life with his wife, Mi Shi. He had recruited a large number of beautiful young men and women into his mansion, and had been living a life of enjoyment, which had infuriated Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng immediately ordered his men to capture Mi Shi and cut her into pieces right in front of Huhai and his mother, and even made Huhai watch.
However, Huhai was still the same. It was as if he had no heart. A dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.
And fundamentally speaking, Mi Shi was Huhai's imperial concubine, and also Ying Zheng's legitimate daughter-in-law. If it were not for Huhai's connivance behind all this, Mi Shi would not have been so bold. But, it could be seen that Ying Zheng was truly ruthless. It would not be a problem for him to lay his hands on his own family.
Looking at the letter in his hand, Ying Jing knew that he was in big trouble now.
