Millsa's bumpy life experience made people sigh after listening to it, and at the same time, it also made Cepes have a lot of doubts.

If he had just met him, Cepes would not hesitate to splash all the dirty water on Marzad.

But now, he is responsible for his friends and for everything he says.

"There's no way to tell if the image in your head is a long-lost memory or a gratuitous whim.

So, you go to the witch and bring her medicine, and I'll find a way to pour it on Marzad.

Don't speculate anymore, let's let the parties tell the story of the year. ”

After a brief pause after giving his idea, Tsepes continued in an inquiring tone:

"I need Marzad to take someone to Kosovo with me, can I wait until I come back to implement the plan I just said."

"Don't cheat him on the battlefield, like you said, he is always my teacher until there is sufficient evidence."

"Don't worry, your teacher is my number one bodyguard, and pheating him on the battlefield is tantamount to pit yourself."

After chatting about their hearts, the two chatted about each other again until the darkest moment before dawn.

Mirsa drank the spirit from her glass, and as she walked to the window, she said:

"Teacher will spend the night at St. Mary's Church tonight, I have a chance to come to you, I don't know when to come back next time, take care."

The aftermath was still there, but Mirsa had already jumped out of the room, and disappeared into the night like a black cat.

Tsepes stood at the window, staring at the night and said softly, "Take care." ”

Then he closed the window and went to bed in a sleepy and drunken mood.

Little did he know, however, that a man had been staring silently all night in the porch across the window.

Malzad's face was cold and his eyes were blood-red, and he did not spend the night at St. Mary's Church, as Mirsa had said.

Assassinated only in the morning, how could Marzad easily let Tsepes out of his sight, and the so-called trip to St. Mary's Church was only a smoke bomb used to confuse people.

As a result, he failed to squat down to kill him, but waited for Mirsa, who he had high hopes for.

Even if it's just two friends, drinking and chatting together, it seems to him that it is an unforgivable original sin.

Disappointment, anger, sentimentality, all kinds of emotions rushed into Marzad's mind, but in the end, he still did not rush to 'catch the rape'.

However, there was a more extreme thought that came to his mind.

……

After a comfortable morning's sleep, Cepes had lunch and went to the office to take care of the first priority at the moment.

While he slept, the Duke of Da'an completed the handover of the craftsmen and provided them with a nice place to stay, as well as a sumptuous lunch, and a new set of clothes.

Immediately afterward, he led these people to the office to meet with Cepes.

The shiny new clothes can't hide the crampedness in the hearts of these craftsmen, and the two well-known cannon masters are slightly better.

"Levier has seen a noble lord."

"Josk has seen the honorable lord."

The two of them saluted in a proper manner, their spines almost parallel to the ground, and without Cepes's instructions, the two of them did not dare to straighten their waists.

More than a dozen gunsmiths also reacted and quickly bent down.

However, no one introduced themselves because they thought their names were insignificant.

"Straighten up, I have brought you to work for Wallachia.

Casting cannons, making arquebuses, each of them tells me what you are good at. ”

Cepes got straight to the point, Josque and Levier were overjoyed, and the rest of the craftsmen were also very sure.

"My lord, I am proficient in the most advanced casting technology, and I am able to forge mortars that shoot giant stone projectiles."

Lévier took a small step forward and confidently said what he was capable of, in this era, the giant catapult was a mainstream product.

Not to be outdone, Josk hurriedly took a small step forward and said:

"Honorable lord, I am also good at forging giant stone cannons, and as long as I can get your support, I will definitely be able to forge the most powerful cannon!"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to shoot stone cannons, I want front-loading smoothbore guns capable of shooting solid iron bullets.

At the same time, I don't like giant cannons, I want more flexible small-caliber wrought iron cannons. ”

The two gunsmiths, from the perspective of this era, do have some skills.

But Tsepesh's perspective is several hundred years broader than theirs, and even if he does not specialize in the history of the development of thermal weapons, he can master some basic knowledge.

Like a stone cannon, the shortcomings are too prominent, the first rate of fire is too slow, and it takes more than ten minutes to shoot a cannon at every turn.

In addition, because the powder chamber is small and the strength of the gun body is not enough, serious explosion accidents often occur.

More than ten years later, King James II of Scotland was killed by his own exploding cannon during the siege of Rogersburg.

Tsepes would never fall into the same pit, so he simply deleted the giant catapult from his options.

At the same time, the technology he pursues cannot be too far beyond the times, otherwise it will not be realized.

On the whole, he chose to manufacture wrought iron cannons, also known as the earliest field artillery, and the concept was about thirty years ahead of this era.

The two gunsmiths were stunned by Cepes's words, after all, the opinion just now belongs to the 'non-mainstream' in this era.

Leviller hesitated for a moment, then said uncertainly:

"My lord, I am afraid that your request will not be realized, from a professional point of view, I recommend that you follow the ......"

"Shut up, soon heavy artillery will be eliminated and light artillery will become mainstream.

When I said before, I was not asking you for advice, but giving orders! ”

Interrupting Levier, Tsepes looked at Josk and asked in a slightly softened tone:

"What about you, what do you think?"

"My lord, there is a difference in the process between casting iron cannons and bronze cannons, and it is difficult to directly cast the finished product without enough experiments.

In addition, as you said, front-loading, reducing the caliber to increase flexibility, etc., all need to be tried again and again to get a breakthrough. ”

Joske is a clear answer, and he is more daring to innovate than Le Verille.

"Experiments, there is no problem, funds, materials, manpower, I will give as much as I want.

In this way, I simply draw a drawing, which is not a standard drawing, but when I experiment, I can borrow ideas from it. ”

Tsepes's knowledge was limited, and he could only sketch a sketch from a vague memory, which he had seen from historical sources.

breech loading for increased airtightness; Reduced length and caliber, shorter firing intervals, improved mounts, increased flexibility......

Sketches without specific values were drawn like random scribbles by children, but Tsepes wrote out the annotations about the improvements in the corresponding places.

As an expert, as long as you mention the content of various labels, you can see the clues inside.

Of course, there is no actual operation, no improved effect, and the idea of imagination is just an idea, and it is not worth pursuing.
