Chapter 289: Go to the Divine Craftsman Camp

In fact, when this kind of rocket was invented, Li Daoxuan did not have the slightest confidence at all, and it was only when the privy counsellor made Yang Wen known to the general public, he gave encouragement and asked him to continue to develop it.

However, after so many years, there has not been much progress in the research and development of rockets, which can be called stagnant, and its power is indeed not as good as traditional crossbow arrows such as arm crossbows and bed crossbows, which can't help but make him lose a lot of confidence.

This time, he finally made a technological breakthrough on the rocket, and he came to see Zhezhao with great interest, but he didn't mean that Zhezhao didn't say anything at all, which naturally made him very frustrated, and he wanted to give up like this.

However, Cui Wenqing's words at this moment made him feel a little confident.

Zhi Zhao was unmoved, and said lightly: "Husband, if you make money and do business, maybe Ben Shuai is not as good as you, but when it comes to rockets, Ben Shuai must know better than you, and Ben Shuai remembers that you have never seen rockets at all, how can you have such a positive statement?" Isn't that talking nonsense? ”

Hearing this, Li Daoxuan was stunned for a moment, and secretly said: Yes, Aunt Cui, he has never seen the rocket developed by the Shenjiang Battalion, how can he understand the role of the rocket, what is this not nonsense?

Suddenly, Li Daoxuan felt that he had fallen from heaven to hell again, just like just now, and Zhou was cool up and down.

Faced with Zhe Zhao's question, Cui Wenqing smiled faintly and said: "Lady, as the saying goes, you know the meaning of elegance when you hear string songs, as soon as I hear Captain Li's words, I guess that the rocket is eight or nine and ten, how can I not understand?" ”

As soon as he heard Cui Wenqing's words, let alone Zhezhao, even Li Daoxuan couldn't believe it, and asked: "Uncle, the rocket was developed by himself, and its production process has never been revealed by outsiders except for the Divine Craftsman Camp, how do you know, uncle?" ”

Cui Wenqing didn't want to argue with them, so he said with a smile: "If the Metropolitan Governor and Captain Li don't believe it, let's go and take a look together, I don't know what the two of you think?" ”

Li Daoxuan didn't dare to make his own assertions, so he had to look at Zhi Zhao, who was sitting in front of the handsome case, obviously waiting for her to make a decision.

Zhi Zhao knew that Cui Wenqing was not an alarmist person, since he thought that the rocket could be used, maybe there was some truth in it, so it was better to go and see what he had to say.

Thinking of this, he said with his head in his head: "Okay, this marshal will go to the god craftsman camp with you to inspect, but the ugly words are in front, husband, if you can't come up with a reason later, beware of this marshal's military law service!" ”

Although he knew that the last sentence of Zhizhao was a joke, Cui Wenqing still nodded seriously and said: "Okay, if you live up to the trust of the metropolitan governor, you will be willing to be dealt with by military law." ”

The Zhenwu Army Shenjiang Battalion is subordinate to the rear army, and the station is about ten miles away from the big tent of the Chinese army.

When Cui Wenqing Zhizhao entered the Shenjiang camp accompanied by Li Daoxuan, it was early afternoon, and it could be seen that all kinds of weapons and ordnance were being placed on the wide school field in the camp tent.

There are ordinary Mo knife spears, all kinds of bows and crossbow arrow clusters, there are arm crossbows suitable for portable combat, foot crossbows, and bed crossbows placed at the head of the city, with a huge body and an amazing range.

In addition to these things, not to mention the huge boarding cloud car, Saimen knife car, siege car, siege catapult, and siege catapult, which directly opened Cui Wenqing's eyes.

Seeing Cui Wenqing's appearance of taking a look here and there, Zhi Zhao glanced at him, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly, looking a little proud: "What do you think, husband?" ”

Cui Wenqing said with a breathtaking chin of his head: "It's really good, it seems that this place is worthy of being the weapons research and development center of the Zhenwu Army!" ”

Zhe Zhao had long adapted to the new words that popped out of his mouth from time to time, frowning and asking: "Dare to ask Husband, what is the R&D center?" ”

Cui Wenqing scratched his scalp, thought of a more reasonable explanation, and said with a smile: "This R&D center is a place where talents who understand weapons, can manufacture, and are good at improving are gathered. ”

Zhi Zhao understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Fujun may not know, in addition to the Treasury Weapons Department under the jurisdiction of the Beijing Military Department, there are the most skilled craftsmen in our Zhenwu Army Shenjiang Battalion who are good at weapons. ”

Cui Wenqing nodded and smiled: "In this way, the level of weapons of the Zhenwu Army should be far ahead of the country?" ”

"That's nature." Zhi Zhao looked very confident and chuckled, "However, most of these skilled craftsmen in the Divine Craftsman Camp are not very good-tempered, and many of them are characters with a tendon in their heads. ”

Cui Wenqing smiled leisurely: "Don't worry, lady, I admire those talented craftsmen the most and know how to measure them." ”

Taking advantage of the small talk between the two, Li Daoxuan had already gathered all the craftsmen of the Divine Craftsman Battalion on the school ground, and Cui Wenqing probably took a look, but he was afraid that there would be no less than five or six hundred people.

By the time Zhe Zhao and Cui Wenqing arrived slowly, Li Daoxuan, who was standing in front of the queue, was already excited and said loudly: "Colleagues, today the Metropolitan Governor of Zhe came to the Shenjiang Camp in person to inspect and understand the research and development of weapons in the Shenjiang Battalion, which is really an encouragement to us. ”

When the words fell, Li Daoxuan turned sideways and greeted Zhi Zhao forward.

Zhe Zhao stood tall and jade, and the red cloak behind him fluttered with the wind, standing in front of everyone and said loudly: "The craftsmen of the Divine Craftsman Battalion, this Shuai is the Governor of the Zhenwu Army, and today I specially came to the Divine Craftsman Camp to learn and understand the research and development of weapons, although you do not wear armor and do not go to the battlefield, but its importance is no less than that of the generals and soldiers on the battlefield. So far today, for nothing else, just to understand the rockets that you have developed recently, I also ask you to teach me, and thank you here. With that, he bowed his hand and ended the lecture.

After a burst of applause, Li Daoxuan ordered the craftsmen to leave and do their own work, leaving only about a dozen people, pointing to the gray-haired old craftsman at the head and saying: "Metropolitan Governor, this is Shen Shannian, it is the third team of the Shenjiang Battalion, and it is the third team he leads, who is responsible for the development of rockets. ”

Seeing the high-flying Governor of the Zhenwu Army, the white-haired Shen Team was obviously very excited, and hurriedly saluted: "The last general has seen the Grand Governor, please take a look at the rocket we have developed, the last general believes that the rocket will definitely become a very important weapon against the enemy in the future." ”

Zhi Zhao nodded happily and said: "Ben Shuai came here this time, the purpose is this, and the pro-Shen team is able to introduce the rocket in detail to Ben Shuai." ”

"Good!" Team Shen is full of promises, "Please move the Metropolitan Governor." ”

Zhi Zhao nodded, beckoned to Cui Wenqing and motioned for him to follow, and followed Team Shen to the depths of the school field, standing in front of an empty space.
