The iron cannon of the Ming Dynasty finally arrived, and the cannon rumbled in Nagasaki Castle from then on, and Takanobu Ryuzoji Temple was like crazy, so that his men kept practicing artillery control with real gunpowder and cannonballs, and they also shot out the cannonballs every time.

Although the gunpowder was given by Mao Lie as an incidental gift, he didn't need money, but this cannonball was very expensive, one was ten taels of silver, and he did it like throwing away thousands of taels of silver a day.

Could it be that he is really crazy?

Of course he wasn't crazy, he was telling Otomo Zonglin: "I also have an iron cannon, don't come here, you kid!" ”

He was also forced to have no choice, so he made this decision.

At this time, it is indeed more expensive to bombard the open space frantically, and if Otomo Sorin's army comes to attack Nagasaki, it will not be a matter of money.

Otomo Sorin has 200 iron cannons in his hands, which he knows quite well, and at this time, he has less than 20,000 men under his command, and after Otomo Sorin has incorporated the soldiers of Saga Castle, his troops are approaching 40,000.

In other words, the Otomo army is twice as strong as them, not only the iron cannon is twice as strong as theirs, but the strength is also twice as large as theirs, if Otomo Sorin's army comes to attack, he has no confidence to hold Nagasaki Castle, he can only keep ordering his men to open artillery, in order to scare Otomo Sorin.

When Otomo Sorin received the news, he was really frightened and stopped.

The Ryuzoji clan also has an iron cannon, how can this be good?

Soon, he reacted, didn't Wang Zhi say at the beginning, they only had a total of 200 iron cannons in stock, how could there be so many iron cannons in Nagasaki all of a sudden?

Obviously, Wang Zhi is deceiving people, they don't have more than 200 iron cannons in their hands!

Baga, you profiteer, what are you doing to me?

He subconsciously thought that Wang Zhi was sitting on the ground and raising the price, deliberately raising the price of the iron cannon in order to make more money.

However, even if Wang Zhi wants to sit on the ground and raise the price, does he dare to offend others?

He didn't dare to offend Wang Zhi, he could only order someone to go to Wang Zhi and say that he was willing to pay a higher price to buy iron cannons, two thousand taels would not work, three thousand taels, and he would ask for as many as he wanted.

His idea was very simple, that is, to take down all the artillery in Wang Zhi's hand, so that he could dominate Kyushu and even dominate Dongying.

As for the Ryuzosi clan, judging from the information from the investigation, they will definitely not have more than two hundred iron cannons in their hands, as long as he has five hundred or even a thousand iron cannons in his hands, are he still afraid of the little iron cannons in the hands of the Ryuzosi clan?

Unexpectedly, only two days after the cronies he sent to Hirado Castle to convey the message, Wang Zhi followed the family to the camp of the Great Friendly Army.

You guy, and you still have the face to see me?

Otomo Zonglin was extremely angry in his heart, but on the surface, he still politely welcomed Wang Zhi into the handsome tent, and ordered someone to serve the best fragrant tea, so he said carefully: "Ship owner, how much do you want to sell the iron cannon, can you tell me, I have already said it, the price is negotiable, why do you sell the iron cannon to the Ryuzosi clan?" ”

Sure enough, Lord Taishi was right to take precautions, if he was the only one who had iron cannons in his hands and sold them everywhere, the princes of Dongying would react even if they were stupid.

It's time to create the illusion of infighting in the Ming Dynasty.

Wang Zhi pretended to be embarrassed and shook his head, and then explained: "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood, the iron cannon of the Longzao Temple clan was not bought from me.

Yes!

And this kind of thing?

Otomo Zonglin was surprised: "Their iron cannon was not bought from you, where did they buy it from?" ”

Wang Zhi pretended to be a little annoyed and said angrily: "It's not a good thing that my rebel Mao Lie did, and he doesn't know when he secretly took refuge in our Ming Cabinet First Assistant, Lord Zhang, this time, he directly pulled someone out of my fleet." You also know that our Taishi has always been at odds with the Shoufu Lord, and the previous Shoufu Yan Song was defeated by our Taishi, and this Shoufu Zhang Bangqi Zhang is not dealing with our Taishi, and everything has to be done with us, they heard that we are secretly supporting you, so they thought of a way to secretly support your enemy, and the iron cannon in the hands of the Ryuzosi clan was brought over by them. Alas, they have made it clear that they want to compete with us for the Dongying market, and we can't help it. “

This one!

The first assistant of the Ming cabinet and the Taishi Yang Cong were not in harmony, which the princes of Dongying had heard of for a long time, because at that time, Yan Song and the Songpu clan colluded and used the Japanese to plague the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty is good at everything, but the internal strife is too serious, and these guys actually invite outsiders to harm their own people in order to compete for power and profit, which is shameful for all the princes of Dongying.

However, Otomo Zonglin didn't expect that Yan Song, the first assistant of the previous cabinet, was defeated by Yang Cong, the first assistant of the cabinet, and this first assistant of the cabinet dared to fight against Yang Cong.

He really didn't know anything about this, after all, he was the prince of Dongying, not the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

So, what to do?

He said a little anxiously, "How can this be good, if the Ryuzosi clan gets enough iron cannons, we will be in danger." ”

Wang Zhi hurriedly comforted: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, our Ming Dynasty does not have any iron cannons in stock, this time our Lord Shoufu sold the hundred iron cannons that the Ministry of Industry had just made to the Longzao Temple clan, and they wanted to buy more and there was no more, at least, there will be no more in the near future." “

The Ryuzoji clan only has a hundred iron cannons in their hands?

When Otomo Zonglin heard this, his expression couldn't help but move, two hundred doors against one hundred doors, it seems that there is still hope, because he already has nearly 40,000 horses under his hands, and it would be good for the Ryuzosi clan to organize 20,000 horses at this time, and besides, there are two invincible generals under him, and the Ryuzosi clan does not have them in his hands.

Thinking of this, he asked solemnly, "Are you sure that the Ryuzosi clan only has a hundred iron cannons in their hands?" ”

Wang Zhi nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course, the iron cannon warehouse of the Ministry of Industry is empty at this time, and there are only a hundred iron cannons produced in the near future, and they can still produce iron cannons out of thin air." ”

Otomo Zonglin then asked, "Do you think that with the first two hundred iron cannons in my hand, I can suppress the first hundred iron cannons in their hands?" ”

I feel like you're trying to eat a fart!

People are the defenders of the city, and the iron cannon mount on the city wall not only has a range a little farther than you, but also has a much higher security than you, after all, people have the wall arrow stacks as cover, and you are exposed to the field as a target for others.

However, Wang Zhi would not kindly remind Otomo Zonglin.

You fight, it's my business, the more fierce you fight, the better!

He sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he said vaguely: "This, it's really a bit hard to say." However, it stands to reason that it should be no problem, because they have just obtained the iron cannon, and the control is not very proficient, and you have already fought two battles with the iron cannon, and the control of the iron cannon is already perfect, compared to the two, I think, you should have an absolute advantage. ”

That's it, Otomo Zonglin's eyes flashed, and he said confidently: "Okay, I'll go and see if the Ryuzosi clan can control the iron cannon." “
