Chapter 198: Xu Ning and the Dragon Scale Armor
Zong Ze gave an order, and the following quickly took action, Hu Yanzhuo and the other three were in Yanzhou, and it would take three or five days to rush over at the earliest, and it would be very convenient for Xu Ning and Ling Zhen to be in Beijing.
Especially Xu Ning, he was originally one of the leaders of today's forbidden army drill, and as soon as it ended, someone notified him, saying that he had been selected by Master Du and asked him to report quickly.
Xu Ning was also slightly surprised, he didn't expect that among so many people, Ye Ling actually took a fancy to him at a glance, could it be that this person's eyes were really like torches? Or is there someone else who has their own?
But no matter what, Xu Ning is still very happy, he is also quite confident in his martial arts, and he is even more unwilling to just be a coach here, which sounds beautiful and the treatment is good, but not being able to lead soldiers into battle to make contributions has always been a pain in his heart.
And once there is no military merit, this life is likely to stand still, and finally after retirement, the imperial court may be promoted to a half-level position, even if it is a high incense.
Therefore, Xu Ning immediately followed the envoy to see Ye Ling, and after the salute, Ye Ling asked him to sit down, and after the parade was completed, the rest of the officials went home, and only the two of them were left here except for some entourage.
After chatting casually, Ye Ling suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that Xu Jiaotou has a pair of ancestral treasure armor at home, I wonder if you can give me a look?" ”
Xu Ning does have a pair of wild goose armor at home, he has always regarded it as a treasure, and he was reluctant to buy it if he was willing to pay 10,000 yuan to buy it before, just afraid that if one day he suddenly went to the battlefield without this treasure armor, at this time, hearing Ye Ling suddenly mention it also made him quite complacent, but he didn't expect that even this adult knew.
He hurriedly agreed, and the next day he came directly to Ye Ling's Mansion with Yan Lingjia, and then presented it with respectful hands.
Ye Ling opened the brocade box, and at the same time, the treasure book in his mind had already been lit up, he had actually thought of this for a long time, there were already several treasures in this water margin, if they had nothing to do with the treasure book, even Ye Ling himself didn't believe it.
As expected, this Yan Ling armor actually corresponds to the 'Dragon Scale Armor' in the illustrated book, which was originally the armor of the famous general Cheng Pu of Eastern Wu, and its effect is to have a special defense bonus for heavy weapons, but it has not yet awakened.

With the previous experience of 'fooling' Guan Sheng, Ye Ling can be said to be familiar with the road this time, when he easily unsealed the hidden ability of this wild goose Ling armor, Xu Ning was stunned on the spot, and he suddenly changed from respect to worship, from an ordinary superior to a god-like complete worship.
Although this dragon scale armor is a treasure, Ye Ling still did not hesitate to return it to Xu Ning, on the one hand, he already has a golden armor, and this dragon scale armor also has its own strengths, on the other hand, this thing is dead after all, talent is alive, between a dragon scale armor and a fierce general like Xu Ning, Ye Ling definitely chooses the latter.
After Xu Ning thanked him for his farewell, another person came to Ye Lingfu to report, it was not someone else, it was Lei Lingzhen.
If the head of the forbidden army like Xu Ning is still respectful when facing Ye Ling, then Ling Zhen, a completely unpopular deputy artillery gunner, can only be said to be sincerely afraid, his official rank is only from the sixth grade, and it is also an extremely unpopular artillery, even among his colleagues, his sense of existence is extremely low, not to mention Ye Ling, a popular person in the dynasty, long live in front of his new favorite.
In fact, Ling Zhen is by no means a mediocre talent, his family has been studying artillery for generations, and he himself is the first gunner of the Great Song Dynasty, but when it comes to martial arts, it is indeed very ordinary, and there is no one in the court, he really can't think of the identity of Ye Ling, why would he specifically summon a little person like himself?
With an extremely apprehensive heart, Ling Zhen came to the hall to see Ye Ling tremblingly, nervous and didn't know which leg to take first, so he lay on the ground far away and began to kowtow.
Ye Ling naturally saw Ling Zhen's panic, and pointed to the chair next to him for him to sit down before he smiled slightly: "General Ling doesn't need to be nervous, this official just called you over this time to consult about relevant information on artillery." ”
Ling Zhen was relieved when he heard this, if he wanted to say anything else, he was not confident, but when it came to artillery, he was definitely full of confidence, even if he looked at the entire Jingshi artillery battalion, he didn't think that anyone could compare with him.
He walked a few steps to Ye Ling's side, sat on the chair with a trembling half of his buttocks and began to talk about getting up, peeking at Ye Ling as he spoke, and saw that Ye Ling was not the slightest impatient, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and the more he spoke, the more fluent he became.
This time back to his profession, Ling Zhen gushed endlessly, from the configuration of gunpowder to the selection of guns, the construction and loading of gun carriages, etc., he talked about it without reservation, and finally he also focused on the three types of artillery he was best at, which he completed on the basis of his family tradition and meticulous summary and research.
These three types of artillery are wind artillery, golden wheel cannon and sub-mother cannon, of which wind artillery emphasizes the explosive power of gunpowder, with the shortest range but the strongest destructive power; The Golden Wheel Cannon is to eject steel debris, and if it explodes in the crowd, the lethality can be imagined; This sub-mother cannon is to place a small bomb in the large shell, and when the big bomb explodes, the small shell inside will be ejected out, which is quite a bit of the meaning of the second stage rocket in later generations, so the range is the farthest, but the power is relatively small.
Ling Zhen said for more than half an hour in one breath, and after finishing speaking, he realized that he was really too verbose of Nima, what kind of status did Lord Du have, not to mention that it was almost the same, where did he have time to listen to his own nonsense, the adults gave themselves the opportunity to say it briefly, the adults did not interrupt themselves It was demeanor, and they really took themselves as a green onion.
Ling Zhen suddenly panicked again, and began to plead guilty as soon as he knelt down, but Ye Ling just waved his hand indifferently and said, "General Ling, why is this?" What you said just now is very good, and the official has also benefited a lot, why did he suddenly stop? ”
Ling Zhen was immediately shocked, this Lord Du didn't look angry, could it be that he was also an artillery fan like himself? It is said that it will not be, the glorious deeds of this Lord Du have long been spread all over the capital, both civil and military, with a strategic mind, he is definitely a genius, how can he waste energy on such a 'small matter' as artillery?
He hurriedly whispered: "Lord Du, the lower official is just a small deputy gunner, the general or something is never dared to be called, the lower official does not dare to waste the noble time of the adult, if you have any requirements, just command." ”
