"Also, since Otsuki's side has already started to make artillery, let's let people pull all the remaining artillery back~~!" Li Hui thought for a while and said, "By the way, reveal the correct drawings." ”

"Hmm~~!" Li Shuo replied a little absent-mindedly, the news brought by Nan Sheng today made him really a little confused, you must know that the secrecy of those hot weapons has really been done to the extreme, but why is there such a situation? Although it is said that those artillery pieces were dealt with in the way of elimination before, it does not mean that this matter can be inappropriate. This matter must be thoroughly investigated, especially the new weapons produced in the arsenal now, if that leaks out, it will definitely poke a hole in the sky.

"By the way~~!I remember that the master who was in charge of making the artillery assembly was accidentally gone~~!" At this time, Li Shuo suddenly raised his head and said to Li Hui: "And I still remember that the accident was because of a mistake by the other party, which caused the hanger to collapse and was directly stoned to death, I happened to be there at the time, and I saw the corpse, and the person was smashed beyond recognition at that time, and I can only tell by the clothes I am wearing~~!"

Hearing Li Shuo say this, Nan Sheng on the side also sensed that something was wrong: "You mean that the other party may have created an illusion and escaped at that time~~!"

"That's right~~~!" Li Hui thought for a while and nodded, saying: "I also thought of what you said, from the beginning to the present, there is only such a craftsman who died 'accidentally', and the rest of the people are under control~~!"

"There must be someone behind that craftsman, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible for an ordinary craftsman to escape everyone's eyes~~!" Li Hui thought for a while and said: "And it has been a long time since the other party cheated to death, and it has only appeared now, this is to put the interests to the maximum, and the other party's plan is very big~~!"

Nan Sheng thought for a while and suddenly said, "There is a man next to that craftsman surnamed Deng~!"

"Deng, is it from the Deng family in Jiangnan?" Li Hui and Li Shuo exchanged glances with each other, and then said in unison: "Then this matter must be behind the Wei family's instructions~~!"

"Not bad~~!If it is the Wei family, it is easy to arrange these things, and although the Wei family has been suppressed by the prince for so many years, many of the other party's dark lines are still operating, this matter should be what they have been planning for a long time~~!" Li Shuo thought for a while about the Wei family.

At the same time, Nan Sheng also thought of another thing: "Since the Wei family has done so much work, they must also make very fast artillery in private, what if this is the case?"

Nan Sheng said this in fact, Li Hui also thought of it, she just wanted to open her mouth to say something, Li Shuo took the lead in speaking: "It takes a lot of iron to make artillery, we only need to investigate how much the other party has eaten to estimate the number of artillery they have made, and it is not enough to make artillery without gunpowder, the gunpowder used in artillery is specially made, and the production of this gunpowder is separate from artillery, so the other party should not get the ratio of gunpowder!"

"And the sulfur needed to make gunpowder is not very much, whether it is Nanshu or Dayue, if you want to supply so many artillery, the sulfur needed is huge, so no matter which side you have, you have to purchase sulfur from overseas~~!As long as we intercept each other at sea, they will definitely have no sulfur available~~!"

Li Hui nodded and said: "This matter will be left to Sinbad to do, anyway, he was originally going to plan to operate at sea~~!

In such a short period of time, Li Shuo and his wife arranged this matter properly, but Nan Sheng on the side looked worried.

"Now Dayue also has a sharp weapon like artillery, once it is manufactured in large quantities, it will definitely ignite the war again~~!And just now you also said that there is the Jiangnan Deng family in this matter, I am afraid that they have now armed the sea ships with these artillery, even if they want to intercept it at that time, I am afraid that it will not be so easy~~!" Nan Sheng said very worriedly.

"It's okay~~!" Li Hui explained to Nan Sheng with a smile: "The artillery they got in their hands has actually been eliminated a long time ago, and now our sea ships are equipped with new cannons, and those old guns have no threat to us at all, and the new sea ships have also been manufactured, the new ships not only have a great stand-in in size and load capacity, but more importantly, the weapon systems on it have all been upgraded, it is no exaggeration to say that now we are completely the overlord of the sea~~!" No one can shake that~~!"

Nan Sheng was completely stunned by Li Hui's words, he really didn't expect to get such an answer, and even in his opinion, the other party said these things that he couldn't think of, and if he said it like this, then this matter is really not as serious as he imagined.

Now the things that Nan Sheng is worried about have completely changed their nature, although they still need to do a lot of things and preparations, but they are completely not as terrifying as he could imagine before, which makes his mood suddenly feel better, and then he relaxed and did not stay, but chose to leave overnight, originally Li Shuo was to keep him, because there must be a vicious battle between Da Yue and Nan Shu in this matter, so Li Shuo didn't like Nan Sheng to stay in such a dangerous place as Da Yue, but Nan Sheng insisted on returning to Da Yue, hoping to continue to help Nan Shu with his own ability。

After the two of them lay on the bed, Li Hui said with emotion: "He is a great person~~!He has paid a lot for Nanshu, but unfortunately no one will remember him~~!"

"Yes~~~!" Li Shuo also said sadly, the only playmates he had back then were Nan Sheng and Heilong, and the two of them also chose the path they wanted to take, and they gradually drifted away from themselves, and they didn't know when they would meet next.

"I will ask Huo Ming to arrange someone to protect Nan Sheng in secret, and if there is really such a day, I will definitely protect him from Dayue completely~~!" Li Hui hugged her husband's chest and said, she knew that Li Shuo's heart must be uncomfortable at this time.

"Thank you~~!" Li Shuo hugged his wife tightly with his backhand, and then dropped a series of kisses on top of her head.

Two days later, Li Hui asked people to pack up their things and start their return journey, when passing by Qingshui City, Li Shuo had a secret conversation with Heilong for most of the night, and after Li Shuo and they left, Heilong began to make a lot of preparations, and got rid of all the things he could get rid of on hand, and secretly transferred his property to prevent the arrival of war in advance.

Prince Muto stood in the factory full of excitement, and ten cannons were neatly placed in front of him, and each of these cannons had some blackened marks on the muzzle, and these traces were the traces left after the artillery was fired, that is to say, each of these cannons could operate normally, which made him unhappy in his heart~~!

"Master Niu, is this cannon faster?" said Prince Mutuo to an old man in his fifties who was dressed in blue cloth and had a gray head.

"How to do it fast~~!" Master Niu glared and said: "Each of these individuals is clumsy, and most of the things they make are inappropriate, and they have to be reworked every time they are combined~~!"

Prince Mutuo was also anxious when he heard this, but no matter how anxious he was, he knew that there was no way to do this, Da Yue was not good at manufacturing these, especially in the manufacture and smelting of those fine parts, and the gap between him and Nanshu was huge, and he wanted to reverse this backward situation in a short period of time.

In fact, Prince Mutuo has always put these problems on his side, but he didn't realize that in fact, the Niu master in this one was also problematic, back then, the Wei family inadvertently revealed that Huo Eighteen secretly got a group of craftsmen, and at that time they didn't know what Huo Eighteen wanted to do, but they habitually placed a person in to collect a little information, but they didn't expect to dig up such a big thing.

At that time, in order to improve the production and confidentiality of the artillery, Li Hui gave the drawings to those craftsmen in batches, so that they could make these parts in batches, and also specially created a set of tools for calibration, and this Niu master in order to be able to grasp the most useful information, so he spent a lot of effort to assemble, so he was very clear about how to assemble the artillery, but when it came to the production of parts, it was not good, and even when the Huo family disassembled the cannon, they also drew detailed drawings, but the drawings they drew were too far from the drawings that Li Hui had been accurate to the minute at that time, so many of the parts made are unusable, and even those assembled artillery have certain safety risks.

Of course, Dayue's demand for artillery is huge, but Dayue's own mineral resources are scarce, and in addition, the terrain of those iron mines is complex and difficult to mine, which also increases the difficulty of artillery manufacturing.

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty, you want a lot of iron and sulfur?" Nan Sheng deliberately put on a very surprised expression and said, "Why?"

"You don't need to ask more about this, I naturally have my own use~~!" As for why these things are wanted, Prince Muto is of course possible to explain it clearly to Nansheng.

"Your Excellency, this iron is very stuck in Nanshu, and it is really difficult to get it, and since the last time Nanshu got artillery, it has directly controlled all the iron mines, not to mention that it has been brought out a little, and even some normal use of the Chinese New Year has been affected. Nan Sheng said as if he was spitting bitter water, and when he saw that Prince Muto's expression became very ugly after hearing this, he changed his tone and said: "But the sulfur can be made out of some, but the price is very high~~!"

"The price is high?" When Prince Muto heard Nan Sheng say this, he thought that Nan Sheng wanted to earn his own money, and his heart suddenly became unhappy: "What's the matter? Is this business so hard to do?"

How could Nan Sheng not be able to hear the dissatisfaction in Prince Muto's tone, he smiled bitterly and said to Prince Muto: "Your Excellency, your old man doesn't care about these things, so of course I don't know that the price of sulfur has increased several times recently~~!"

"Double? Why?" Prince Muto hurriedly asked as soon as he heard this, there was not a single sulfur mine in the whole country of Otsuki, which meant that the sulfur in the gunpowder needed to make artillery was completely imported, so he was now very concerned about anything related to sulfur.

"Your Excellency, don't talk about the big moon of sulfur, even the output of Nanshu is very low, so no matter who wants to use this sulfur, basically the sulfur used is pulled back from overseas, but just a while ago, a very powerful pirate suddenly appeared on the sea, looting at sea, making a lot of fleets to go to sea have suffered heavy losses, and the sea area where he often haunts happens to be several large sulfur producing areas overseas, and now because of his existence, the fleet does not dare to take that sea line, and this has directly led to the supply of sulfur, and now the entire Nanshu is also very short of sulfur, So this price has also been stirred up by others~~!" Nan Sheng explained to Prince Mutuo in detail, and in his heart he was very surprised and proud, he really didn't expect that the arrangements that Li Hui told him that day would be so easy to achieve, and his side directly controlled the sulfur line at sea, which was equivalent to directly cutting off the supply of weapons to Dayue.

"How can this be~~~!" Prince Muto really didn't expect this thing to be like this, if there was no sulfur to make gunpowder, what was the use of making more artillery himself! ()
