The night passed peacefully, and the day dawned.

As soon as the sun rose overhead, the Longmen caravan received a great piece of good news.

The Zarut Ministry has come to trade.

The Zalut Ministry actually came to trade!

The dark clouds in the hearts of the leaders of the caravan suddenly dispersed.

The Zarut tribe is still from Battle.

Battle didn't take the deal he made before the match too seriously. But the strange record of the Longmen caravan greatly boosted his confidence in the transaction.

Since the Dragon Gate Caravan has such a strong strength, of course Battle has to make a special trip to confirm the deal. For that kid who couldn't even drink, Battle was really a little relieved.

"Hello, old shopkeeper. I am Battle of the Zarut Ministry. This is the trade item I brought. Battle respectfully saluted the old shopkeeper Zheng Ming, and pointed to the slaves tied up in a string around him.

These slaves were the corpse pickers who had been caught by Ange in the wreckage of the battlefield.

Looking at the dozens of slaves, the old shopkeeper Zheng Ming frowned.

It's not that the slaves can't be collected, but now that the caravan wants to break back to Xifengkou, how can there be extra manpower to come and take prisoners.

Noticing that Battle, who was huge, was actually standing there with a pleading face, Zheng Ming suddenly had an idea.

"Battle is it?" Zheng Ming looked up and down carefully, the number one warrior of the Zalut Division.

Battle means hero in Mongolian. This name is not a casual name among the Mongols, there is no recognized record of bravery, and no one dares to call it publicly.

"Please sit inside!" The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming bowed and returned the salute, and he fully showed his respect for a grassland warrior.

Looking at Zheng Ming's familiar prairie etiquette, Battle immediately had a good impression of the old shopkeeper Zheng Ming.

As the old shopkeeper entered the caravan's formation, Battle looked around with his eyes shining. He wanted to find out what was so special about the caravan's chariot formation, which could easily eat more than 2,000 light horsemen from Duoyan's department.

Unfortunately, as far as the eye could see, Battle didn't see anything unusual, which made Battle even more convinced of the idea that the caravan was hidden.

When guests come to the door, of course, they have to be served with a banquet.

The old shopkeeper Zheng Ming is not a stingy person, he arranged a grand banquet for Battle according to the customs of the grassland.

The banquet began in the morning, and under the courteous accompaniment of the veterans who had a large amount of alcohol specially found by Zheng Ming, Battelle was already drunk just after noon.

This banquet was also a signing banquet for the Longmen Caravan and the Zalut Ministry. Before he was completely drunk, Battle reached a final deal deal with the old treasurer Zheng Ming on behalf of the Zalut Ministry.

At the banquet, after several rounds of temptation, the old shopkeeper Zheng Ming found out the current situation of the Zalut Ministry, he firmly grasped the psychology of Battle, and successfully reached a win-win deal with the Zalut Ministry.

In the new trade, the trade between the Zarut Ministry and the Dragon Gate Caravan regarding the exchange of slaves for grain continued.

However, the Longmen caravan demanded that the Zarut Department send the slaves to Xifengkou for settlement. Each slave caravan would add half a pound of rough noodles to the Zalut Department as a freight.

In addition, the Longmen caravan hired the Zalut Department to send them back to Xifengkou. The Zarut ministry does not need to come forward directly. All they had to do was inform the Duoyan tribe and follow the caravan behind.

The price paid by the Longmen caravan to the Zalut Department for this was that the caravan bought all the wool of the Zalut Department at the price of one pound and one penny, and as much as there were. Eventually, the caravan was settled with grain.

At Battle's suggestion, the old shopkeeper also agreed to use the captured war horses and exchange them for the horses of the Zalut Department at the market price.

The generosity of the old shopkeeper made Battle even more grateful. In order to cope with Houjin, the Zalut Department urgently needs to reserve more war horses.

Duoyan Department, the biggest threat to the Longmen caravan, was quietly resolved by the old shopkeeper.

Looking at the drunk Battle, the old shopkeeper breathed a long sigh of relief.

With the escort of the Zalut Division, the Duoyan Division would not be able to dispatch a large army to kill the Longmen Caravan.

As long as the Duoyan Department does not directly dispatch the army, what is there to fear about the Longmen caravan?

Now the Longmen caravan can rest assured that it will embark on the way home.

The big stone in his heart was moved away, and the old shopkeeper Zheng Ming also fell to the ground drunk with confidence.

Capital

In the research institute, Sun Yuanhua was holding a few drawings and calculating hungrily.

This was a gift from His Royal Highness King Shin to him.

As a firearms expert, Sun Yuanhua originally served in Liaodong with Sun Chengzong. The fort defense system of Ningyuan City was actually in the hands of Sun Yuanhua.

From the forty-fourth year of Wanli to the second year of the Apocalypse, Sun Yuanhua, who fell several times in a row, completely gave up the dream of Jinshi and the first.

Sun Yuanhua, who has been deeply exposed to Western studies, feels that he can never go back to the past.

Sun Yuanhua felt that he could no longer make the eight-strand articles that he needed for the imperial examination.

In desperation, Sun Yuanhua could only rely on his already mastered knowledge of firearms in exchange for the official position of Guangzong Yaozu.

For this reason, Sun Yuanhua resolutely threw himself into Sun Chengzong's scene. As Sun Chengzong's staff, he followed Sun Chengzong to serve in front of the Liaodong Army.

Sun Yuanhua's outstanding attainments in firearms won Sun Chengzong's special attention. Sun Chengzong first promoted Sun Yuanhua to the secretary of the Ministry of War, and then promoted Sun Yuanhua to the head of the Ministry of War for his meritorious service in building Ningyuan.

It can be said that after several years of experience in Liaodong, Sun Yuanhua has been firmly labeled as a grandson.

Now, Sun Chengzong was forced to resign and leave Liaodong. Sun Yuanhua and them, Sun Chengzong's staff, were not liked by the new Ji Liao Jing slightly Gaodi. Sun Yuanhua could only stay in Ningyuan with nothing to do for a while.

After receiving a summoning letter from his teacher Xu Guangqi, Sun Yuanhua politely refused Yuan Chonghuan's invitation and left Liaodong to return to the capital.

Originally, Sun Yuanhua just wanted to find a clean place to complete his transformation of Lu Mi Gong, but he didn't expect King Xin to give him a huge surprise.

The Lumi gun that Sun Yuanhua wanted to transform was an imitation of the Lumi Kingdom (Ottoman Turkey) arquebus during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

The power of the Lu Mi gun is far greater than that of the ordinary bird gun in the Ming army. However, because the barrel was too slender and the manufacturing was too cumbersome, Daming could not mass produce it.

Sun Yuanhua gave that although the red-clothed cannon was powerful, it was indeed inconvenient to move. And there was an urgent need in the army to increase the power of the bird's gun, so he gave birth to the idea of transforming the Lumi gun.

Sun Yuanhua didn't expect that the tunnel pistol taken out by His Royal Highness King Xin would be far more powerful than the Lu Mi gun in his transformation. Moreover, under the promotion of Shino, the firearms workshop relocated to Shibei Hutong has realized mass production of tunnel guns.

This made Sun Yuanhua's transformation of Lu Mi Gong completely unnecessary.

What Sun Yuanhua didn't expect was that His Royal Highness King Xin also gave him a few drawings as a gift for the meeting. With Sun Yuanhua's eyes, he recognized at a glance that the drawing was a light artillery that he had never seen before.

In the past few days, Sun Yuanhua has been calculating almost non-stop. He did not believe in the parameters marked in the drawings at all. He always felt that His Royal Highness King Xin must have been deceived.

How could there be such a powerful light artillery?
