Did the Sogdian envoy Agilhan expose the Hungarians' major military secrets?

They are an allied army with the Hungarians, which is equivalent to their own people?

Did this kid do it on purpose?

Is this a ploy?

The problem cannot be considered indefinitely, otherwise it will be infinitely extended to a small probability event, and finally become a "drill horn".

Chen Mu preliminarily estimated that Agilhan was not lying, but there was no need to make a fuss because of this sentence, such as immediately running in front of Kong Xiaoxian and shouting as if he had discovered it, so that everyone would know the big news.

It's like the little secretary next to the big boss, they sometimes have to act as the eyes and ears of the big boss, but not all the nonsense has to reach the boss's ears, especially those information that they can't judge whether it is accurate or not. If you get it right, you may not have merit, but if you make it wrong, it will be a curse.

"Isn't the relationship between your god of war and the king bad?"

"How can it be bad, our god of war is twenty years younger than our king, our king values him very much, and said that he will give him the throne of Zen in the future."

"Your king has no son?"

"Of course there are, and there are quite a few."

"Then why give him the Zen position?"

Because the king thinks that his sons are all rice buckets. There is no way to inherit the throne at all, so it is better to give the throne to his younger brother. Anyway, they are all from the Ali family, and the throne is not in the hands of others. ”

"That's not the case." Chen Mu shook his head: "There have been such things in history as the throne or the throne being ceded to his younger brother, but it is not the case you said. ”

"No, you're wrong, Han. In Sogdia, this is very common. ”

"Really?" Chen Mu didn't believe it very much, so he changed the topic and said: "In short, Ali Dayi doesn't want to fight anymore, and wants to reconcile with Daliang." So what's next for him? I think it would be better for him to fight back and help the Liang Dynasty fight Hungary, so that the relationship between the two countries will be established. When the time comes, don't talk about one business road, even two or three will be fine. ”

"It would be nice if you were the general of the third division."

"Don't put a top hat on me, this won't work."

"Hey, why don't you let me go, I'll go back, tell our god of war, and let him send troops to kill Kong Xiaoxian. If there is anyone here who is bigger than you, tell me to kill them all. ”

Chen Mu stood up, turned his head and left.

Whisper: People can be ambitious, but they can't be whimsical.

If you want to slip away from under Chen Mu's hands in a few words, I'm afraid it's a little difficult.

Chen Mu's sleep has always been very shallow, he sleeps for three hours a day, and the next day he will be full of energy, and he doesn't care too much about this strange imagination.

Since there was enough food, the lame man filled his pockets, stole some rice from the grain storehouse, soaked some water, and hid it in a jar to ferment.

I sneak a sip of wine when I'm fine.

was caught by Chen Mu.

"Hey, why don't you have some too?"

"You finally managed to get this little wine, I look pitiful, how can I be embarrassed to share it with you." Chen Mu smiled strangely.

The cripple felt that Chen Mu was playing some bad idea.

But later, Chen Mu gave up the initial idea - he wanted to run with the jar and keep it for himself.

He said directly to the lame: "I went to talk to the Sogdian envoy just now, and he said that Arando's grain is less than a month's worth left. Do you think this sentence is reliable? ”

The lame man thought for a while: "I don't think it's reliable, they are nomads who fight and go with cattle and sheep." It shouldn't be what he said. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless the cattle and sheep of the Huns are stricken with a massive plague."

Chen Mu rubbed his chin: "If it's you, do you want to tell Kong Xiaoxian the news." ”

The cripple smirked: "Then let me ask you a question." ”

"Say."

"If you suspect that your daughter-in-law is having an affair with another man, will you go directly to that man?"

"I'll ask your lady." Chen Mu was indignant and left with his hands behind his back: "Day by day, the dog can't spit out a rat feces in his mouth. ”

——

Time passed day by day, and when Chen Mu was idle and had nothing to do, he went to see those carpenters working.

He also asked the sappers if they could make black powder.

More than a dozen experienced sappers shook their heads at the same time.

Chen Mu suspected that they had never heard of this term, so he explained it to them.

At this time, Chen Mu got a new word "fuhuo alum", which is composed of nitrate, sulfur and charcoal in proportion.

Among the more than a dozen veteran sappers, two of them used to specialize in making alum, and one even used to work for the Queen Mother.

Chen Mu asked them, can you make the amum now, what are you all missing.

The sappers said that sulfur and saltpeter were not available in the vicinity and could not be produced.

Chen Mu asked them, if you cast an iron pipe, one end is sealed, leave an ignition hole, put a fire line, and then put the fire alum in it, and then fill in some stone balls and iron balls and other things to ignite the fire line. Have you ever done such an experiment before?

The sapper said: "What you said is a bit similar to the 'cannon' that the Queen Mother said. However, that experience was very painful, the stone did not go out, but the iron pipe exploded, killing three eunuchs and a warlock on the spot, and also crashing the queen mother into the air, falling out more than a foot away, the phoenix crown fell off, and a shoe was lost. There was a loud bang, and the earth shook. alarmed the emperor. frightened the emperor and concubines out of the house. Later, I heard that it was the Empress Dowager who was doing a cannon test, but she was blown up all over her face, her eyes were dazzling, and she was nauseous. His Majesty the Emperor ran from the Taihe Hall to Fengqing Palace to see the Empress Dowager. Oops, the Queen Mother was so miserable. From then on, the emperor gave a death order not to experiment with such a horrible thing in the palace. The Empress Dowager must have been bewitched by your group of warlocks to do this kind of experiment, and they were all pulled out and cut down! Hey, if it weren't for the Empress Dowager's intercession, I would have been buried in the ground a long time ago. ”

Chen Mu smiled and asked, "You used to be a Taoist priest?" ”

The old sapper grinned.

Chen Mu thought to himself, the empress dowager was a woman after all, and the things that women liked since they were young were different from boys. They prefer things like rag dolls, and when they grow up, they like stinky beauty, money, cosmetics, and they are not very interested in guns. Besides, she didn't have the heart to lead the army to fight the world, and later gave up this kind of research, which may have something to do with it. After all, the four armies of the Liang Dynasty are still relatively capable of fighting, she is a woman, just make money all day long, there is no need to participate in the military.

But I'm different, I'm going to war, and...

Suddenly changed my mind: Even if I can invent it, I can't invent it now, because then I will be equipped by Liang Jun.

If I need to confront Liang Jun one day, what advantage do I have?

Unless it's entirely my own troops, I won't study it for the time being.

But the next time I go back to Luoyang, I should open up a few channels - stock up on materials to make gunpowder.

Maybe one day, these things will bring me great benefits.
