"Strictly follow the provisions of the artillery army discipline, the first item, wash the ......"

"Wipe the ......"

"View the ...... of the propellant chamber"

"Check the chamber for residual ......"

"Medication ......"

Li Zhongyi stood behind the breastwork wall 100 meters away, holding a monocular, pursing his lips, and silently observing the movements of each officer and soldier who tested the artillery.

Scientific experiments should not only obtain the launch data, but also ensure the safety of the test personnel. Therefore, the normative regulations on gun testing are particularly important, and we must not be careless.

Li Hu stood quietly behind Li Zhongyi, he wanted to visit Li Qiniang in the ruling palace, but he was a little hesitant.

The so-called father-daughter connection, although Li Hu is obedient and has a simple personality, he is a rare person who understands.

Li Hu's eldest son, Li Zhengqing, was spoiled by his grandfather Li Qiong when he was a child, and it was too late when Li Hu came to his senses. Li Zhengqing is already one of the notorious eight yamen in the capital, like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats!

Due to the lack of education of his son, Li Hu made up his mind and attached great importance to the cultivation of his daughter Li Qiniang.

In this era when a woman's lack of talent is virtue, Li Hu did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire a famous teacher to teach Li Qiniang to read, learn to play, play the piano and paint, and as long as Li Hu was busy, he would accompany Li Qiniang to talk about the world, which was indeed painstaking.

Because of this, the relationship between Li Qiniang and Li Hu is extremely deep. Li Qiniang eloped to find Li Zhongyi, Li Huming knew that it was extremely inappropriate, in order not to hurt his beloved daughter's heart, he chose to pretend to be stupid, just as if he didn't know it at all.

This is really a love for women!

The deeper Li Qiniang's favor became, the more Li Hu did not dare to cross the Lei Chi by half a step, for fear of hindering his grandson's possible way to take over the foundation in the future.

Just when Li Hu was distracted, Li Zhongyi suddenly turned his head and praised him with a smile: "The combination of the test gun is clear-eyed, it seems that you have worked hard." ”

Li Hu hurriedly took a deep look and said respectfully: "Your Majesty doesn't have much to do, but if you are serious, it is Your Majesty's strength." ”

Li Zhongyi couldn't help but smile slightly, since he led the army into Kaifeng City, the entire Huayang County Mansion has become more and more cautious, but he is afraid of making a mistake and does not dare to go beyond the slightest.

The palace of Huayang County is a proper relative, who can enjoy wealth and nobility, but is in a place of suspicion. Although Li Qiong's father and son are suspected of having a cup bow and snake shadow, Li Zhongyi is completely understandable, after all, Li Qiniang's favor is already well known.

"Uncle Yue doesn't have to be so polite, we're a family." Li Zhongyi was satisfied with the deference of Li Qiong's father and son and their understanding of the overall situation, and gave more good looks, which is also the proper meaning of the question.

Li Hu was not complacent because of Li Zhongyi's praise, but bent down more respectfully, and arched his hand: "The lord is so loved, the subordinates are really ashamed to be ......" and said a lot of polite words.

Li Zhongyi touched his chin, he wanted to persuade Li Hu to let go of his psychological baggage, but after thinking about it, he still gave up this meaningless futility.

The palace of Huayang County used to be Li Zhongyi's staunch ally, but now, it is his hardcore subordinate. Monarchs and ministers, father and son, three outlines and five constants, no mistakes can be made!

Li Zhongyi turned his head and focused his attention on the team that tested the artillery again, after all, in the era when there were no arquebuses, bronze artillery played a crucial role in the strategy of riding on foot.

"Order." With the order of the test team, the fuse of the medicine room of the long-barreled bronze cannon was ignited.

Although Li Zhongyi had seen similar scenes countless times, he still held his breath and stared intently at the fuse that was gradually shortening.

However, the heavens were not beautiful, and after the fuse burned into the medicine room, there was no movement at all.

Li Hu stepped forward without hesitation and arched his hand: "Your lord, the incendiary powder did not explode, and this is all the fault of the ministers." Please go and check it out. ”

Li Zhongyi waved his hand and raised his chin at Chu Xiong, Chu Xiong immediately understood, he walked quickly to the nearest herald, and muttered a few words in a low voice.

The herald then galloped out, and in a short time, a Goryeo slave, coerced by his sword and gun, staggered to the unexploded bronze six-pounder cannon.

"Uncle Yue, there will always be casualties in scientific experiments, whether you go to check it in person or send your subordinates to check it, it's not appropriate, understand?" Li Zhongyi's words were a bit heavy, and Li Hu hurriedly pleaded guilty, "The lesson of the lord is that the subordinates are always confused. ”

Li Zhongyi shook his head and said, "Uncle Yue, you are not old and confused, but your concept has not changed, and you still have compassion. You must know that the effort and cost of training a qualified artillery soldier are far greater than the cost of feeding twenty ordinary soldiers. Not to mention anything else, the cost of live ammunition practice alone is not a small amount. I have said many times that those who are not of my race will have different hearts. These goryeo slaves, no matter how good you are to them, they are just white-eyed wolves, and when you turn around, they will bite your throat fiercely. Whether it's fighting in battle or training on weekdays, it must be the blood of the enemy or the slaves, not the blood of our own robes, you know? ”

Chu Xiong looked at Li Hu silently, but he was secretly sighing in his heart, the Lord had made such a big detour, in the final analysis, the purpose was to protect Li Hu and his subordinate craftsmen.

Li Zhongyi once said that he leaked his mouth, and called the craftsman a technician in general, Chu Xiong stayed by Li Zhongyi's side all day long, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he knew more new terms than others.

Li Hu understood in his heart that Li Zhongyi's earnest teaching was actually for his good, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you for the teachings of the Lord, your subordinates don't dare to be careless anymore, and treat yourself and the craftsmen as child's play." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded with satisfaction, raised the corners of his mouth high, and said: "You and I are both from military affairs, and we are not used to the sour smell of literati and doctors, and we both love to deal with craftsmen......

Unexpectedly, before Li Zhongyi finished speaking, he heard an earth-shattering explosion, the earth trembled, and his eardrums ached.

Li Hu covered his ears and secretly feared, if he went to check the reason why the artillery had not exploded, he was only afraid that it had been blown up to the ground, right?

When the smoke at the scene cleared, Li Zhongyi raised the monoculars and took a closer look, but saw that there were fragments of human organs everywhere, which was simply miserable!

"Uncle Yue, it's really a suspense!" Li Zhongyi raised his hand and pointed to a broken thigh, and turned his head to look at Li Hu.

Li Hu nodded violently, and said in fear: "Thank you for the grace of the Lord for saving your life, your subordinates really shouldn't have compassion." ”

Li Zhongyi sighed and said: "Uncle Yue, there will always be various casualties in the experiment, and it is impossible to completely avoid them, let alone blame me for being ruthless." I'll give you a word: Instead of dying in poverty, it's better to die in the Dao, and then understand, right? ”

"Your Majesty really understands, and I'm convinced." Li Hu picked up a life, where did he dare to disagree?
