Leaving the panicked Huang Langzhong, Zheng Xianli rushed out of the room with a roar, Huang Langzhong somehow planned to explain for the fifth Qi, but found that the other party had long since disappeared.

Zheng Xianli hurriedly arrived at the political affairs hall, but found that it was the old minister Xia Yuanji on duty, and there were more than a dozen busy Shuling Shi in the hall.

"General Zheng, what's the matter with finding the fifth minister, if you are not in a hurry, the old man can convey it on your behalf...... Hey, how did you go so fast......"

Xia Yuanji, as an important confidant of Qin Jin, naturally understands very well the officials of the Shenwu Army system, this Zheng Xianli has always been inconspicuous, but after studying this person's resume, he keenly found that the facts are by no means consistent with what is seen on the surface.

Sure enough, Fifth Qi's series of actions confirmed Xia Yuanji's conjecture. However, he will not get into this troubled water, although the fifth Qi is very capable, but he has always been eager to achieve quick success, and many times the result is afraid to backfire. So, instead of moving, it is better to be still.

Since Xia Yuanji promoted the Fifth Qi, half of the burden on his body has been invited, at least those officials who are urging ghosts to cry poor and ask for money will never come to him again, and they will stare at the Fifth Qi like flies seeing blood every day. Now that he has a quiet ear, he can just free up a lot of energy to clean up the discipline of the dynasty.

After having a few in-depth conversations with Qin Jin, Xia Yuanji could understand Qin Jin's current situation of being superficial to the people in the court, and naturally there were many criticisms against the two sons of heaven, and he was drenched in a cold sweat. But when he returned home and meditated at night, it was not difficult to find that many of the young imperial doctor's thoughts were really insightful.

If in the year of Tianbao or the year of Zhide, the factions of the DPRK and China are intertwined and complicated, and the slightest carelessness will end up in a catastrophe, Xia Yuanji only intends to die a peaceful and stable death. However, the current situation in the court has been cleared, and all the complicated struggles in the past have been swept into the gutter, and the court is dominated by the Shenwu Army, and the efficiency of implementing any policy will be the highest in the previous Jiazi, and if he does not grasp such an opportunity to make some major things that are enough to be famous in the world, he will really not be able to bear himself! Therefore, in addition to Zheng Xianli's precursor to the Qin and Jin Horses, the rectification of style and discipline has become a first-class and important major event in his life.

Today, Zheng Xianli was in a hurry to find the Fifth Qi, which made Xia Yuanji feel that these people under Qin Jin's hands were not easy to serve, and the Fifth Qi's plan was to be slapped on the horse's legs.

Fortunately, Fifth Qi was still respectful to his teacher, so he wondered if he should give Fifth Qi some reminders......

Where the Shenwu Military Marshal's Hall in the north of the city is located, when Zheng Xianli approached the gate, the military officials did not stop it, but let it go as soon as possible.

"Can the Fifth Prime Minister be inside?"

"I went forward in an hour, and I haven't come out yet!"

"That's good!"

Zheng Xianli ran to Shuaitang at almost the same speed as flying, and met the fifth Qi who came out of the spring breeze head-on. Caught off guard, the two almost collided. Fifth Qi saw clearly that the person who almost collided with him was Zheng Xianli, and his signature smile appeared on his face again.

"Why is General Zheng so impatient?"

People who know Zheng Xianli's details don't call him an official at this time, they all call him a general, and the fifth Qi learned from Qin Jin that Zheng Xianli was about to lead his troops to Lingwu to fight against the remnants of Tubo, and once Lingwu was recovered and rushed to Anxi, it would be another Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing.

It is naturally better to be friendly with such a character than to have a grudge, let alone a person that Doctor Qin values?

"The subordinate is here to find the fifth minister!"

Fifth Qi suddenly felt strange, he and Zheng Xianli had nothing to do with official affairs, why did he come to find himself in such a hurry?

"What's the matter, but to say that something can be done without breaking the law, it is absolutely unambiguous!"

Zheng Xianli bent over and gasped for a while, then said:

"There is no illegality, and it is within the power of the fifth minister......"

Maybe it was because this breath never evened out, Zheng Xianli paused again, the fifth Qi was an anxious child, and when he saw him like this, he said:

"General Zheng said slowly, what the hell is going on?"

"The subordinates are here for the seventy cannons of the ordnance superintendent!"

Hearing this, Fifth Qi was stunned at first, and then laughed again.

"What's the matter, General Zheng can rest assured, tomorrow, not before sunset today, he will be sent back to the Ordnance Supervisor!"

Because of Qin Jin's strong opposition, the matter of minting money was lost, and those dozens of artillery pieces were naturally useless, and now that he learned that it was Zheng Xianli's heart, it was even more impossible to move lightly.

"Thank goodness!"

After learning that the seventy cannons had not been smelted, Zheng Xianli's tightly hung heart was lowered again, and his attitude eased.

"I was anxious just now, and I collided with the fifth minister, please don't blame it!"

Fifth Qi smiled heartily:

"Wherever General Zheng says, he is in a hurry for official business, now it is not the past, there is not so much attention, if you don't worry, go, I will accompany General Zheng to take a look at those artillery!"

"Don't dare to work together, let's talk ......"

Zheng Xianli only thought that the fifth Qi was a false politeness, so he politely refused, but the fifth Qi was intended to make friends, and really planned to accompany Zheng Xianli to see those beloved artillery, he didn't want to burn incense for ten miles, and something went wrong in the last few steps.

So, the fifth Qi couldn't help but pull Zheng Xianli to the household warehouse. Under the difficulty of being enthusiastic, Zheng Xianli had to follow the fifth Qi to a warehouse in the south of the city. The scene in the south of the city and the scene in the north of the city are two places of human world. The circumference of Chang'an City is nearly 100 miles, and the land that is enclosed in the city wall is far more than the population that needs to live, and because the population is mainly concentrated in the north, it is also sparsely populated in the extremely prosperous Tianbao years, and a large amount of land is in a state of abandonment.

Up to now, the further south you go, the more empty houses and ruined walls there are, and only by walking through them can you personally experience the troubled times and the prosperity of the north of the city, which is like heaven and earth.

Many large objects in the household are inconvenient to be stored in the north of the city, where every inch of land is valuable, so another warehouse was opened in the south of the city.

The guard of the warehouse was a rickety old soldier, and when he heard that the prime minister of the dynasty had come, he was excited again and again. Fifth Qi impatiently asked him to get up, and hurriedly led the way to see those large objects cast in bronze.

Entering the courtyard, Zheng Xianli saw dozens of artillery pieces placed in it at a glance, fortunately, cast copper is not cast iron, not easy to rust, despite the wind and sun of half a month, it still shines with the unique luster of brass. He took three steps and made two steps, ran to the front of the cannons, stretched out his hand to caress the cannon, and refused to let go for a long time.

Zheng Xianli also had a process of accepting these strange-shaped weapons, from the initial disdain to curiosity, and then to acceptance and conviction. The artillery was built by him after years of arduous work with Qin Jin's ideas and a series of graphic and textual descriptions.

He once lined up all thirty cannons in the school field, and a mile away from the artillery array were thousands of straw men bundled into a dense formation, and when all the cannons were ignited together, the rolling thunder was like a god descending to earth, and thousands of straw men were in a mess in the blink of an eye. Its shocking effect made Zheng Xianli appreciate the power of firearms for the first time, and he also understood why Qin Jin was so obsessed with firearms.

Zheng Xianli, who has rich experience in formation warfare, also knows one thing that the greater power of this kind of artillery is not only to kill, but to deal a devastating blow, and it is expected that the deafening rolling explosion will seriously hit the enemy's morale, and even some military formations with low morale may not be able to withstand the first round of attacks from the artillery array, and they will scatter.

Zheng Xianli once thought with regret that when he was in Anxi, if he had such a sharp weapon, Gao Xianzhi might not have been defeated by the big cannibals and returned, and the Qarlu people might not dare to defect.

However, assumptions are assumptions after all, people always have to look forward, and the situation in Anxi is still waiting for future generations to further develop. Therefore, with these seventy cannons, Zheng Xianli dared to gallop through the land in the river with this ticket, and recover all the fertile land between the medicine killing water and the Wuhu River.

"General Zheng, General Zheng ......"

Fifth Qi called several times in a row, and Zheng Xianli woke up violently and came back from his imagination.

"I wonder why General Zheng cares so much about this weapon called 'artillery'?"

In Zheng Xianli's view, no words can describe the shock of dozens of artillery salvos.

"If the Fifth Prime Minister has time, the subordinates can demonstrate it in person!"

Fifth Qi believes in Qin Jin's vision, since Qin Jin values Zheng Xianli so much, then the "artillery" that Zheng Xianli regards as a treasure must be amazing. Therefore, he was also very curious about how powerful this thing was.

"If you have a free day, you will have a glimpse of the 'artillery' style!"

After all, these cannons had been placed in the open air in the warehouse for a long time, and at the same time, Zheng Xianli had to send people to find his subordinates who knew how to handle the cannons in the ordnance superintendent, and at the same time transport a batch of projectiles of * and cast iron, so it took nearly three hours to go back and forth.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Fifth Qi's patience was being exhausted bit by bit, but because of what he said before, it was difficult to go back on his word, so he had to endure it again and again.

Finally, after thoroughly inspecting the condition of the artillery, a group of officers of the Ordnance Supervisor began to reload the artillery* and projectiles, many of the cast iron projectiles were a little larger, and it was difficult to poke them into the barrel with a pole, so someone smashed them into it with a hammer, and the fifth Qi who watched it shook his head frequently, wondering if he had overestimated Zheng Xianli, such a farce-like performance, can go into battle to kill the enemy? Besides, the enemy can wait for you to swagger and knock the hammer?

Zheng Xianli also repeatedly pulled him away from the artillery position, in his opinion, it was all some tricks, so that he did not care about the advice to cover his ears.

Boom!

Without warning, thunder rolled, the earth shook, and the fifth qi felt like a hell in an instant......
