Zhao Zhen pushed away the guards around him, and he couldn't breathe well due to the heavy foot armor of his whole body, and Sancai hugged him desperately and howled: "Official, can't you leave the palace!" Just after the earthquake, the situation outside the palace is still unclear, how can you easily get into danger? ”

Vera was protected behind the big shield and wanted to squeeze to Zhao Zhen's side, Yang Caiwei didn't know when she took the long knife of the Guard, stared around vigilantly, looking excited about being ready to go, and Wang Yuyan restored the majesty of the middle palace, and kept giving orders to the palace maids.

The seemingly chaotic back garden is actually in good order, with the palace maids standing on the outer wall, then the guards in the palace, and finally Yang Caiwei and Wang Yuyan, only Zhao Zhen and Vera are protected in the armor.

Helplessly pushing Sancai away, Zhao Zhen shouted: "Are you stupid to kill talents?" The sound of the explosion came from the northeast of the back garden, the Fengqiu Gate is in the northeast, the military academy and the military division inside the gate are all there, it must be the gunpowder of the military division that has something wrong! Shall you be invaded by a foreign enemy? I don't dare to borrow ten of them! ”

Sancai was stunned for a moment and said in a panic: "The foreign enemy is not terrible, but I am afraid that it will be a rebellion, the official family!" ”

"I'm not even afraid of external enemies, but I'm also afraid of traitors from within, you give me up! The Pro-Health Division listens to orders! ”

There was a bang, and the surrounding guards all knelt on one knee: "The guards are here!" ”

"Leave some men to guard the back garden, and the others will follow me to the Fengqiu military camp!"

"Your Majesty's will!"

The well-trained Pro-Wei Division immediately took action, and marched towards the palace gate in the middle with a unique formation package Zhao Zhen's protection, Zhao Zhen was most worried about the Armament Division that stored a large amount of gunpowder, judging from the power of the explosion just now, it should not be the explosion of the gunpowder warehouse, otherwise it would not be over with a loud bang.

Out of the palace gate of the back garden, Peng Qi and Li Jiu were leading the guards and the royal equipment to patrol the palace, as long as there were all the palace maids who went to the back garden, they were all intercepted, and those with sharp weapons were killed on the spot.

At this time, there is no sloppiness, and I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.

Seeing the official family coming out of the back garden, the two stepped forward in shock to stop: "Official, you should be safer in the back garden, Zhao Li has already gone to the Fengqiumen military camp to check, and it is not too late to go again when you know the specific way!" ”

Zhao Zhen kicked Peng Qi: "Who let you kill people!" Even if these palace maids have sharp weapons, they are mostly tools, not sharp knives! ”

Peng Qi knelt down and said: "Peng Qi is good at advocating and asking the official family to forgive the sins, these palace maids explain that they don't listen to dissuasion, although the sharp weapon on their bodies is not a blade, but it is difficult to guarantee that they will not harm others, in case they take advantage of the chaos to take revenge on the enemies of the past, it will be even more difficult to clean up......"

What Peng Qi and Li Jiu said also made some sense, Zhao Zhen frowned: "Sancai, you go and deal with the problem of the chamberlain and the palace maid, Li Jiu is responsible for the defense of the imperial city, and not a single ant is allowed to leak into the palace, otherwise the military law will be engaged!" ”

"The last general obeys!"

"Peng Qi! Take my royal armor, the sword of the Son of Heaven! ”

The armor that was temporarily removed from the guards was taken off, and Zhao Zhen also put on the golden bright light armor, which was suddenly extremely powerful, Peng Qi stretched out his hand to tie the sword of the Son of Heaven around Zhao Zhen's waist, with the cooperation of the armor, at this time Zhao Zhen's body showed a peerless domineering, exuding supreme majesty like a god of war.

The guards seemed to have returned to the days when they followed Zhao Zhen to kill the rebels, and they all shouted in unison: "Gale! ”

The torrent of steel activated, and under the command of Zhao Zhen, it rushed towards the Fengqiu Gate.

Out of the Donghua Gate to the north through the large and small goods street is the Fengqiu Gate, along the way the frightened people in the armor after seeing Zhao Zhen in armor will bow down with peace of mind, at this time Zhao Zhen's appearance is the best medicine to stabilize the city of Tokyo, the emperor in armor to go to danger, what is more shocking than this scene?

Along the way, there were people who worshipped, which greatly reduced the burden on the defense work, and the team also crossed the street as fast as possible to Fengqiumen.

At this time, the Fengqiu Gate was full of swords and guns, and when the four guards on the city wall saw the bright royal armor, they immediately put the crossbow arrows up, and if there was that blind-eyed fire, it would be a lot of fun.

Zhao Li quickly slipped down the city wall and said, "Your Majesty, the loud noise just now was caused by the explosion of the ordnance made by the Armament Division!" ”

"What about the casualties?"

Zhao Li said in a low voice: "The two four guards who operated the cannon died, and the prisoner Zeng Gongliang suffered some internal injuries, and the explosion injured his internal organs, and he will be fine after a few days of resting!" The craftsman has no loss. ”

Zhao Zhen sighed: "Fortunately in misfortune, I sent someone to bury the sacrificed forbidden army, and included it in the monument of Taimiao to be promoted to a martyr, and the old and young in the family should also be taken care of!" ”

"The official family is merciful!"

Looking at Zeng Gongliang lying in the military tent, Zhao Zhen said unceremoniously: "Zeng Gongliang, what's going on?" Why do artillery explodes? ”

Zeng Gongliang turned over and fell to the ground, lying at Zhao Zhen's feet and crying: "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty!" The sin is unforgivable, and the minister thinks that the cast iron cannon should be able to mature more gunpowder, who knows......"

Zhao Zhen kicked Zeng Gongliang over angrily: "Who asked you to change the amount of gunpowder given by the craftsman without permission, of course this thing has to be tried little by little, although the steel of my Great Song Dynasty is not the same as before, have you solved the problem of cast iron pores?" That's the courage to try! You're kidding the lives of the soldiers! ”

Zeng Gongliang was ashamed to die, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Please ask Your Majesty to condemn!" ”

"Is it useful to punish you? If you were to punish you by bringing those two sacrificed forbidden soldiers back from the side of the bridge, I would have cut off your head without hesitation! I have repeatedly reminded me that you can only start casting cannons if the skills of cast iron and steelmaking meet the requirements, and you will drill me to the ironworks and foundries from now on, and when will you make a cannon chamber without pores and come back to be your supervisor! ”

Zeng Gongliang blushed and lowered his head heavily: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!" ”

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to this madman who was carried away by the object, Zeng Gongliang has been obsessed with ordnance since he took charge of the Armament Division, and his obsession with ordnance has reached the point of madness, and he actually directly skipped the bronze cannon and directly used cast iron to make the cannon, this stupid behavior is the real reason why Zhao Zhen is angry.

Ding Du lay in the ruins and kept observing the inner chamber of the iron cannon, and knew that Zhao Zhen's combat boots met his eyes, so he suddenly raised his head: "The minister is rude in front of the emperor!" ”

However, Zhao Zhen did not blame him, and then squatted on the ground to observe the exploded inner chamber and said, "How did you find anything?" ”

"Qi Guan's family, Weichen thinks it's better to use copper to make a cannon, although it will make the inner chamber gradually larger, but the flexibility of the copper cannon is much better than the iron cannon, unless the iron smelting and casting can reach the point of steel, otherwise the iron cannon is not as good as the copper cannon, but the cost of the copper cannon is higher."

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter if the cost is high, the development of artillery should be done step by step, starting with bronze, and then cast iron, I have already asked Zeng Gongliang to be responsible for ironmaking and casting, the two of you divide labor, he provides you with raw materials, you are responsible for making artillery, be careful, I don't want the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty not to die on the battlefield, but to die in the stupidity of the Armament Division!" ”

Ding Du bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty is benevolent sergeant, and the ministers must be cautious!" ”

In fact, in Ding Du's view, these things are all trivial things, just two fighting men, and the official family has a surplus of benevolence, which is the deep-rooted values in the hearts of the literati......
