Cai Boyu stretched out his hand to Du Qi: "Did you bring what I wanted?" ”

"Isn't it just a sealed and airtight tin can? It's not like I'm going to be a prisoner! Du Qi casually threw it to the little fat man and said with a sneer. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The generals of the Great Song Dynasty were equivalent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in later generations, but they were responsible for a wide range of things, from the royal equipment, down to the masonry carpenter, and of course, the ordnance in the army.

Facing Du Qi's self-confidence, the little fat man asked suspiciously: "Are you sure you can reach the sealing level?" ”

Du Qi's pride as a scientific researcher never has to be literati, strictly speaking, he is also a literati, he pursed his lips and rolled his eyes: "Of course, this small jar is made by the master craftsman who will be the supervisor with a small hammer, and is wrapped with tin and thin iron sheets around it, which is melted and quenched and shaped at high temperatures, and the lid on it is connected by threads, and it does not leak after being filled with water!" ”

Cai Boyu asked Chen Lin to dig a small hole in the lid while listening to Du Qi's introduction, and then Du Qi quit: "You said earlier that you wanted to leave a hole!" ”

"How do I know if you're going to be a prisoner and can do what I want?!"

The strength of the little fat man mocked Du Qi's teeth gurgling, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the movements of the little fat man, a paper bag was taken out of Cai Boyu's arms, and he poured it all into the small iron can wrapped in paper with a smile, and took out a fuse and inserted it into the hole that Chen Lin had just dug out and covered it with a thick layer of paper.

"Everyone, be careful, I'm going to start ......"

"Wait a minute!"

Zhao Zhen looked at the little fat man's movements and stopped in shock: "It's better to find a safe place where no one is detonating, after all, it is in the palace, and it is not good if you blow up the flowers and plants!" ”

Chen Lin looked at the official house: "The backyard of Gyeongbokgung Palace is a small landscape, with two rockeries. ”

Years of tacit understanding made Zhao Heng instantly understand what he meant, and nodded in agreement: "Then throw yourself into the cave of the rockery!" ”

A few waiters came over and lifted Zhao Heng's bed and changed the position, so that he could clearly see the situation in the backyard, and the little fat man lit the fuse without saying a word and shouted: "Good pronunciation!" Then he threw the tin can in his hand into the cave.

Du Qi and Chen Lin looked at the hissing and burning small iron can indifferently, and Zhao Zhen cleverly helped Zhao Heng cover his ears.

Bang...... There was a loud bang, accompanied by the clanging sound of the fragments of the tin can, and a rockery made of stone was instantly torn apart.

The huge sound and the ensuing waves made Du Qi stunned, and the entire main hall of Gyeongbokgung Palace made a gacha sound, which was the wooden structure of the dougong playing a shock-absorbing role, although the sound was terrifying, but it did not affect the safety of the palace.

Chen Lin, who was originally calm and relaxed, had disappeared, and Zhao Zhen searched carefully and found that he had taken the official family and hid in the palace......

The power of the golden ratio of black powder has been exerted to the maximum, and this miraculous power makes people full of fear and awe, and the surrounding inner servants have all fallen to their knees, lying on the ground and shivering.

The little fat man slapped Du Qi with a retaliatory slap: "What? I'm scared silly! ”

Du Qi's body trembled and muttered: "Terrifying, terrifying as ......" Then his eyes shone with a scorching light and said: "This is a militaristic artifact!" Please Cai Zhengzi must be taught!"

The little fat man refused without thinking about it: "It can't be done!" ”

"Why?" Chen Lin reappeared, his eyes flashing with a cold glint and asked in a cold voice.

Zhao Zhen looked at Chen Lin, who was about to go berserk, and sighed: "This is a joint decision between me and Cai Boyu, the stakes are so important that you have to be cautious, can you guarantee that the people who will be imprisoned can keep their mouths shut?" Don't be in a hurry to make a statement, few people can resist the temptation of huge sums of money!"

Du Qi opened his mouth and froze in place with a bitter smile: "What the prince said is extremely true, I am afraid that the prison has already leaked into a sieve, and a few days ago I also found that someone planned to rub the drawings of the three-bow bed crossbow!" ”

Chen Lin's face changed violently, and he reached out and grabbed Du Qi: "Why don't you report it?!" ”

"That fine work has been detained by the guards who were imprisoned, and it will be sent to Dali Temple for investigation on the same day." Du Qi said to Chen Lin embarrassedly, in fact, this is also out of helplessness, if it is known by the people of the Imperial City Division, the people who will be the prisoners will inevitably be collectively unlucky, and the spirit of the literati is often to turn big things into small things.

But obviously Chen Lin didn't plan to do it so easily, and said in a cold voice: "This matter will be carefully investigated by the Imperial City Division, the weight of the ordnance is as heavy as a three-bow bed crossbow, and now there is more gunpowder, you will not be able to keep it properly as a prisoner at all!" “

Cai Boyu's eyes lit up and he suggested: "Why don't you set up a new place to specialize in ordnance?" ”

Du Qi's face instantly became darker than the bottom of the pot: "A new division? You said it easily, do you want to draw people from my prison? Where is the location? Who should pay for the materials used? ”

"Separate the Ordnance Division, which will be the superintendent!" Zhao Zhen looked at the pitiful appearance of the little fat man and said.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Ordnance Department is an important weapon of the country, how can you accept it from others privately?" Du Qi immediately retorted.

"It's not a private grant, but it is under the jurisdiction of the prince, and another venue is found to start again!" The little fat man retorted repeatedly.

Zhao Heng nodded and agreed after seeing his son's persistent eyes: "In this way, the Ordnance Department will be re-established on the barren mountain behind the East Palace, with the crown prince consul in charge, Du Qi Cai Boyu as the young eunuch, and the best one selected from the general as the supervisor to be the master craftsman." ”

Daddy's methods made Zhao Zhen sigh that Jiang was still old and spicy, and a simple sentence dispelled the resentment in Du Qi's heart, and the prisoner was a petty official from the sixth grade, while the young eunuch of the Ordnance Department was from the fourth grade!

Du Qi is not only promoted, but also responsible for the daily research and development work of the Ordnance Division, which is exactly what he can't ask for, and now that it has been realized, how can he not be grateful to Dade to serve the king?

In fact, the main reason why Zhao Heng was so decisive was that he saw the power of gunpowder, and the explosion like a landslide made him see the hope for the future of the Great Song Dynasty.

Since the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the Golden Ou is incomplete, and the Emperor Shi Jingjiao presented the sixteen states of Yanyun, which made the Great Song Dynasty lose the land of horse grazing, and the party members became more and more arrogant, even if the horses paid tribute were geldings.

The Great Song army without war horses suffered a lot when fighting with foreign enemies, and it could not advance as fast as a wind, and if it retreated, it was bitten by enemy horses, and it could only gain the upper hand in a head-to-head confrontation, but who would fight hard with the Song army that opened the formation?

Although gunpowder can't completely change the situation, it can make the enemy riders fearful, and this thing is the same as the ratchet god arm crossbow, and the deterrence is more important than the actual battle.

The little fat man looked at Du Qi and said, "You can follow me in the future!" ”

Looking at the excited Cai Boyu Zhao Zhen shook his head helplessly, this time he is the sea is wide and the sky is still flying, in fact, he has already started the idea of the mountain behind the East Palace.

"Do you want to move the villa further afield?" Zhao Zhen touched his chin on the way back and said to Cai Boyu.

"Your sister! I plan to build the armory inside the mountain, and it will definitely not affect the East Palace, after all, it is our base camp. ”
