After staying up all night, and finally sending these princes away, Zhang Guang thought that he could sleep well.

Cai Wenji, the charming lady who hasn't been with her at home for a long time, has slept well, and the harem can't be left out in the cold, and it's easy to mess up.

Before the two of them and Pang Tong raised their buttocks, the guards led Yan Lao and Yan Liang into Zhang's mansion one after the other.

"Old Yan, how can you be willing to come to Chang'an City to go around? Look at you're tired of yourself! ”

Yan Lao was obviously thinner, but his expression looked energetic, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with gray hair, and he actually had a bit of a dusty temperament.

"It's urgent, Zhang Guang, hurry up and follow me." Yan Lao grabbed Zhang Guang, turned around and left.

Yan Liang smiled bitterly at Pang Tong behind him.

"Pang Tong, remember to take Li Dao to Luguan, be quick, don't let those Huns concentrate their forces south." Zhang Guang did not forget to instruct Pang Tong before leaving.

Out of Zhang's Mansion, Yan Lao and Yan Liang both came on horseback.

The three of them rode horses and galloped all the way to the hidden military workshop in the deep mountains and old forests on the outskirts of Nanzheng, Hanzhong.

Zhang Guang really wanted to ask Yan Lao what happened.

Yan Lao didn't have the idea of talking to Zhang Guang, he just cared about urging the horse forward, Yan Liang followed Yan Lao closely, and didn't squint.

There must be some kind of powerful weapon made again, whatever, you will know when you arrive.

The location of the arsenal workshop was chosen by Liu Xiongming, and the road was also the route that Liu Xiongming was responsible for.

Zhang Guang has never been here.

It's a little embarrassing to think about it, I'm a little incompetent as the lord.

With the gentle slope avenue repaired by Liu Xiongming, it is not difficult to ride a horse across the Qinling Mountains, but the road is not wide, and you can only walk alone.

Climb over the Qinling Mountains and enter Hanzhong.

Zhang Guang was a little lost.

I just feel that I am going around and around, and the surrounding scenery seems to be not much worse.

There are also two short caves in between.

Liu Xiongming is indeed a genius.

originally had the talent in this area, and later learned a lot of formations from Pang Tong, and even more so to operate the natural power contained in the mountains and rivers.

It wasn't until sunset that I came into a huge valley.

In the middle of the valley is a mountain spring that winds its way down the mountain.

There are many workshops built on the side of the mountain spring, and thick white smoke rises from the big smoke on the roof.

At this point, it was no longer possible to continue riding.

Long Jiu left on his own and foraged for food.

Zhang Guang squatted down and touched the mountain spring water, which was cold to the bone.

I really don't know how Liu Xiongming found such a cold spring.

"Old Yan, what the hell is going on, can you talk about it now?"

"When you arrive, you will naturally know, how can you be as curious as a baby when you are so old!"

If you don't say it, you won't say it, but you still have to complain a few words, Zhang Guanghao was depressed.

Under a few large ginkgo trees in the valley, a large row of houses was built.

The warehouse of the Ordnance Workshop, the soldiers of Yan Liang's subordinates and the craftsmen of the Ordnance Workshop all live here.

There is also a large room, which Yan Lao used to write and paint, and discuss the production process with the craftsmen.

Yan Lao walked into the house with Zhang Guang.

There are hundreds of people in there.

"Everyone, this is Zhang Guang, I brought it to you."

"Master!"

Hundreds of people knelt down at the same time to call Master Zhang Guang.

What's the situation?

If you want to vote for me and call me the lord, I can still understand.

They all call me Master, what's the matter?

"Okay, get up, when the auspicious time arrives tomorrow, after the official apprenticeship, you will officially become the heirs of the 'Zhang's Iron Tools'."

"Uncle Xie!"

More than 100 people got up at the same time and called Uncle Yan.

There are more than 100 people, all of whom are young and middle-aged, not tall, strong and strong, and are good billets for blacksmiths.

"Okay, we're all hungry, let's go, let's eat!"

Yan Lao ignored Zhang Guang's puzzled eyes, took the lead and walked outside, ringing the bronze bell hanging under the eaves.

The loud bell rang in the valley.

In the workshop by the mountain spring, there are many sturdy men who come out in twos and threes, all of them shirtless, and their arms are as thick as ordinary people's thighs.

High up in the valley, tree branches can be seen shaking from time to time.

Soldiers dressed in civilian clothes, with strong bows on their backs and long swords or scimitars at their waists, emerged from hiding.

There were also several brass muskets slung across their shoulders.

Where is this Arsenal?

It's completely Longtan Tiger's Den.

Mutton soup, steamed buns, noodles and rice, everything.

There are also a lot of wine jars piled up at the entrance of the canteen.

"Everyone, today Zhang Guang came to our arsenal to see everyone, wine, enough, everyone open their bellies to drink." Yan Lao stood there and shouted loudly.

"Zhang Guang? The lord Zhang Guang? Who is it? Many craftsmen asked curiously.

"It's me!" Zhang Guang spoke so unconfidently for the first time.

It's so funny, not many craftsmen recognize me as a master!

"Meet the Lord!"

The soldiers all bowed flat-chested, and the craftsmen all knelt on one knee.

"Okay, too much form, we don't care, let's eat, drink!"

Yan Lao gave an order, and thousands of people dined at the same time.

It was all long tables, with food and wine in the middle, and thousands of people sat on either side, eating and drinking, but no one made a loud noise.

This formation made Zhang Guangdu a little shocked.

I really don't know how Yan Lao and Yan Liang trained them.

After a few bowls of wine, Yan Lao finally began to explain to Zhang Guang what was going on today.

It should have been more than a month ago.

Two young men who had gone into the mountains got lost, and after turning around, they ran to the vicinity of the valley.

Yan Liang's subordinates captured the two of them to the valley.

After Yan Lao inquired, he learned that these two young men were blacksmiths from the inclined land, who went into the mountains to look for meteoric iron.

At that time, there were craftsmen transporting a batch of forged broadswords to the warehouse.

When the two of them saw the exquisitely made broadsword, they couldn't help but itch, and they must compare themselves with the craftsmen here.

Only then did I understand that there are really mountains outside the mountains and heavens outside the sky.

The skills that I have always been proud of, in front of the old craftsmen of the arsenal, are completely like children's plays.

After returning to the sloping land, the two told the old people of the clan about it, but no one believed them.

But the two young men said that they had noses and eyes, so the clan selected a few skilled old blacksmiths and came with them to find out what was going on.

The two young men entered the valley with a few old blacksmiths through the methods of communication between the arsenal and the outside.

Yan Lao personally took action to convince those old blacksmiths.

A few old blacksmiths were going to learn the art on the spot.

"You're all this old, what are you still doing to learn from a teacher? If you want to learn from a teacher, let the young people of your clan come, and they don't worship me as a teacher, but I have a senior brother above me. ”

When these old blacksmiths heard that there were still masters behind Yan Lao, they were shocked.

As soon as he returned to the Xiedi clan, he brought all the young and middle-aged people in the clan who knew how to strike iron to the arsenal.

Then, there was a scene where Yan Lao pulled Zhang Guang to the arsenal to accept apprentices.
