It didn't take much effort to get it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zheng Fei raised his eyebrows and nodded: "Okay, I will be there on time." ”

The Duke shook his glass, tilted his neck and drank the wine from the bottom of it, with a tired look on his face.

"It's late, it's time for me to rest, see you tomorrow guest. ”

After a brief farewell, he got up and left the castle, walked on the gravel path, and walked out of the gate of the manor.

Passing by the small cabin where the sentry lived, I heard the gasps of the woman, and the unstoppable ambiguity was unstoppable, and it seemed that the sentry was out of time to send off the guests.

Pacing outside the fence, Zheng Fei wanted to wait for Brad to come out and walk together, but Brad was already waiting for him in the woods outside the manor.

Seeing Zheng Fei walk out of the manor, Brad, who was in deep thought, flashed out of the woods.

"There's an important fact that you'd love to hear. Brad's solemn face said it all.

"Did you find anything?"

"Our plans may be ahead of schedule. ”

"How?"

"The guest before you, he didn't come to talk to the Duke about business, and after sneaking into the castle I overheard them talking, and they sounded like people in the royal family, do you know what they are discussing?"

Zheng Fei frowned, thought carefully for a while, and then asked tentatively, "Does it have anything to do with Christine?"

"That's right, it's Christine. Brad's face was still so heavy, he paused for a moment, and slowly exhaled: "They say that the king has secretly imprisoned Christine, and is going to charge him with a crime and be executed next week." ”

"Sure enough. Zheng Fei pinched his eyebrows and smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that no king can allow more powerful people to appear in his kingdom." ”

"yes. Brad took a sip of the flask, and raised his eyebrows: "It looks like you're going to be busy again, you'll definitely find a way to rescue Christine." ”

"Of course, the drawings and knowledge in his head were exactly what I needed. ”

After a pause, Zheng Fei remembered something: "At the party in the Central Castle that night, I met the King of Denmark, but that person just now was not. ”

"He's not, but maybe he will be later. Brad said meaningfully.

"What do you mean?"

"The man and the duke were talking about Christine in the house before, the king wanted to get rid of Christine, but that person wanted to use this excuse to get rid of the king, after all, although Christine has no real power, but after years of publicity, it is a god-like image in the hearts of many Danish civilians, and if the king wants to kill him, it will naturally cause dissatisfaction among the civilians. ”

"So that man wanted to expose the king's conspiracy, to maximize the mood of the people, to overthrow the regime in one fell swoop. Zheng Fei continued.

"Yes. Brad shrugged helplessly: "I really didn't expect that Denmark was about to usher in a great expedition, and it was actually intriguing at this time." ”

"Such a dynasty is not fit to be a conqueror, and its most important task at present is to deal with the contradictions between the rulers. ”

Zheng Fei raised his head, his gaze swept over the bright moon, and stayed in the starry night sky, staring.

Think, for a long time.

"I changed my mind. He uttered a vague sentence.

"What did you change your mind?"

"I was going to make only a hundred ships of gunpowder, but now I have decided to make as many as I can, and most likely use them all. ”

"Hmm—" Brad furrowed his brow in confusion, not understanding what he meant.

Zheng Fei didn't explain much, jumped into the carriage and looked north: "Let's go over there first, Duke Tukeman's warehouse is two thousand meters away." ”

......

Ten minutes later, the carriage stopped at the foot of a small hill.

Climb lightly to the top of the slope and look ahead, and you will be greeted by a dim light.

This veritable fortress looks like an artillery base, with many giant cannons on wheels parked in the open space, similar in appearance to those stocked in the naval harbor, except that they have no rifling on the inner walls, just ordinary giant cannons.

There were at least a thousand soldiers stationed here, living in the walls of the fortified forts made of solid granite, each equipped with huge cannons, which could inflict heavy blows on the intruders, no wonder the Duke dared to reveal the address of the warehouse at will, and was not afraid that anyone would dare to attack the place.

Spartan warriors are brave men in close combat, but they are helpless against these huge cannons that can kill their enemies from a distance of a few hundred meters.

Even if an army of tens of thousands wanted to take this fortress, it would take two hours to say the least, and this time was enough for the Copenhagen city defense army to support, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in the area around Copenhagen.

"Oh, that's tricky. Zheng Fei carefully observed the layout of the fortress, but did not find any flaws: "Judging from the state of this group of soldiers, they are very vigilant and ready to fight at any time, it seems that they have received an order from the royal family and are about to be withdrawn." ”

"Then I won't be able to get in, this fortress doesn't even have a place to hide. Brad smiled bitterly: "The good drama in Istanbul can't be repeated." ”

A few months earlier in Istanbul, Brad infiltrated the artillery unit and hibernated for days, waiting for an opportunity to drug the soldiers' meals.

"Let me think..."Zheng Fei closed his eyes, thinking about various possible solutions, he didn't want to watch a fat duck slip away like this.

Late at night, lying on the hillside blowing the cold wind, it was really a little cold, and it was this slightest coolness that made his mind extremely clear.

"There you go. He smiled happily, the corners of his mouth outlining a graceful arc.

"What's the bad idea you've come up with again?"

"Since it's hard for us to break in, we might as well take a different approach. As he spoke, Zheng Fei whispered to Brad and expressed his thoughts.

After listening, Brad couldn't help but sigh: "A true wise man can solve the most complex problems in the simplest way, while most people are just the opposite." ”

"I'm not a wise man, and that title sounds too high-end. Zheng Fei rubbed his eyes, and sleepiness hit him, causing him to yawn for a long time.

"Brad, this task can only be given to you, because you are Brad that everyone fears. He said.

"Don't worry. Brad gave himself a thumbs up.

"Let's go back and rest first, then we have a lot of things to do, and we have to take care of our spirits. ”

"Wait, I have another question. ”

"Huh?"

"Why did you say you were going to get as much gunpowder as you could and use it all up, and where did you use it?"

Zheng Fei was silent, pinched his eyebrows, as if diverting the topic: "In the face of the upcoming expedition, the Danish royal family is intrigued, some people want to consolidate power, and some people want to usurp the throne. You must have imagined what would happen if such a group of rulers defeated the Ottoman Turks and conquered the European continent?"

"The tragedy of Europe. Brad frowned.

"So, you should understand what I want to do. ”

After thinking for a moment, Brad smiled lightly: "You can't take away all the warships in the naval port, so you have to use these gunpowder to destroy them and destroy the Danish Dynasty's ability to dominate Europe." (To be continued.) )
