In a blink of an eye, it has been a year since Zhang Xian traveled to the Great Song Dynasty, and Zhang Fan and Shi Liang have also been at sea for more than three months. It's the spring season again, a piece of paper from the imperial court was sent to Zhang Xian's house, Zhang Xian was promoted again, to be exact, Zhang Xian has another official position, Wu Ruijun commander and "subordinate bandits to pacify the secretary", Zhang Xian and Wang Fu are calm, however, Zhang Xian's father, mother-in-law, mother-in-law, lady and a team of subordinates, and even Chen Jinlian, who has just taught ten women about court affairs, are also present, but they can't be happy, looking at the people sitting in the hall, they are also angry.

Niu Dameng was the first to stand up and said:

"This dog's Jia seems to be the way, what kind of "subduing bandits" to appease the affairs of the adult? It is said that the war in Xiangyang is urgent, and the 200,000 Tartar army is besieging Xiangyang, and the adults have to lead the 5,000 surrendered bandits to Xiangyang to be the vanguard, which is clearly to kill people with a knife and put the adults to death. ”

Fang Kun also continued:

"Jia Rudao, this traitor, knows that it is difficult to restrain the bandits, with the Wu Rui Army, they are still afraid and awe of the adults, and they can still do the order and prohibition, once they are separated from the Wu Rui Army, they may bomb the camp and rebel at any time, who can still suppress these bandits at that time? If an adult is alone in a gangster's den, isn't it a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? ”

Li Jinde also said:

"Hey, Brother Fang, Jia Nidao probably wants these bandits to command the life of our Wu Rui Army, and you don't know it, this Jia Nidao is the one who follows me and the one who disobeys me dies, and there is nothing that he Jia Nidao can't do."

Jiang Wei slapped the table and said:

"My lord, now that he Jia Nidao is about to put the adult to death, instead of being beaten passively and sticking his head over for Jia Nidao to cut off, it is better to reverse him Jia Nidao, without the court, we will kill the Tartars! As long as the adults give an order, we will turn against him! On the contrary, this mediocre court without reason, with the strong combat power of our Wurui Army as the backbone, it is not difficult to expand the army of 100,000! ”

When all the people heard this, they all cried out:

"That's right! Contrary to him, Jia seems to be the way, and he is against this unconscious king! Our 3,000 Wurui army, in a battle, wiped out tens of thousands of bandits, what fear do you have of the imperial court? ”

Zhang Xian's father was shocked when he heard it, even Zhang Xian's mother couldn't help crying when she heard it, as the landlord class of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhang Xian's family never thought about rebellion, at least, cultivating and reading the ancient precepts of the heirloom has always been the motto of these landlords and scholars.

Luo Tiantian's mother-in-law, Chen Jinlian, who was standing behind, looked calm, and when she heard Jiang Wei say rebellion, her face twitched instantly, turned her head, and looked at Zhang Xian with a serious face.

At this time, Zhang Xian, seeing that his father and mother seemed to be frightened, it seems that everyone will be mistaken, if you really want to rebel, Zhang Xian is absolutely confident that he will overthrow the stormy Great Song Dynasty, but in the end of the Song Dynasty, the scholar class, the landlord class, which accounts for the main force of society, has always stood on the side of the Great Song Dynasty. Zhang Xian hurriedly stood up and pressed down with both hands, and the lobby suddenly became quiet, Zhang Xian said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this official first draws a bottom line for everyone, no matter how sorry this court is for me Zhang Xian, this official will not rebel against this court, even if this official has to one day in the future, he will not listen to the orders of the court at most, but this official swears to heaven that he will never rebel, never betray the Great Song Dynasty, and never betray this country.

"This is not to say how foolish and loyal I Zhang Xian, or how noble, but I have been in the Song Dynasty for more than 200 years, and today's Song Dynasty is the most lenient dynasty for the common people and scholars in history.

However, let's think about it, on the other hand, the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty has allowed more ordinary people to live and work in peace and contentment in the Great Song Dynasty, and bandits and pirates are a minority after all, so what is the reason for our rebellion? Is it just because of the life of one official that it is more important than the life of the world? Therefore, at most, we will find a way to get rid of traitors and ministers for the country, make the king more virtuous, let the ministers dare not be dictatorial, unwilling to dictatorship, and let thousands of people in the world have a good life, instead of being wronged and thinking about subverting the Great Song Dynasty court and replacing it ourselves! This official said this, from now on, if there is anyone who dares to speak out and rebel, this official will kill him with his own hands! ”

When Zhang Xian finished speaking, Zhang Xian's father and mother's faces suddenly relaxed, and even Luo Sansan's mother, the corners of her mouth showed a slight smile, and she nodded slightly, what Zhang Xian didn't expect was that Luo Sansan's mother soon had a letter fly to the Great Song Palace, which helped Zhang Xian a lot in laying out the palace in the future.

Everyone in the hall was also silent at this time, everyone thought about it carefully, and just as Zhang Xian said, Jiang Wei suddenly blushed like a peach, lowered his head and said to Zhang Xian:

"My lord, my subordinates are angry and talking nonsense, my lord must not take it to heart, my subordinates must be cautious in their words and deeds in the future!"

Zhang Xian's father smiled at Zhang Xian and nodded, stood up and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, my son has already said that the matter of rebellion is not to be mentioned, and the previous things are not to blame, and loyalty to the monarch and the country is the ancestral family motto of my Zhang family, so my Zhang family will never rebel, even if it is to lose my life!"

Zhang Xian's attitude is just that, these backbone henchmen are actually thinking about themselves, and they can point out that others ask him, but they can't damage everyone's hard work. Those who seek the world seek people, talent is the foundation that Zhang Xian values, Zhang Xian said:

"Everyone's kindness, this official is not ignorant of what is good or bad, but he also knows it, and this matter is not mentioned. Now, the official has also decided, and he will accept the position of the commander of the Wu Rui Army and the position of "Bandit Commander and Gang to pacify the secretary", so Jia seems to say that he just wants the official to lead a group of bandits to go out to the Tartars, so as to take the official's life? Well, this official will lead these 5,000 bandits to Xiangyang to be the pioneer as he wishes! The so-called people can grow everywhere, grass can grow everywhere, and the official doesn't believe that these bandits can really turn the sky and kill the official. Didn't Jia Nidao say that he wanted the official to lead the team to go to Beijing Lin'an first, and he Jia Nidao still wanted to send a prison army to this bandit army? This official will see what he can do! ”

Zhang Xian paused and continued:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this official may be protracted this time, so the things in the family must be arranged properly, the first thing is the drill of this Wurui Army, and the commander of Wang Fuwang's battalion will take over as the deputy commander of the Wurui Army, and when there is a suitable candidate, then your battalion commander will be handed over, but now we are scarce of talents, so we have to let Lord Wang pick it up. Everyone must understand that the Wurui Army is the foundation of our life, therefore, we must be diligent in training, and wait for the next time the officer returns, the Wurui Army must be a strong army that can fight, is good at fighting, and will win in battle, we must not think that we are proud and complacent if we have defeated tens of thousands of bandits with one as ten, you know, when these bandits face the Tartars, they flee from the wind, and they don't even have the courage to fight, and our enemy is always only one, that is, the Mengyuan Tartars. ”

Wang Fu heard that Zhang Xian valued himself so much, if Zhang Xian was the king, this would already be a bit of a support, and he hugged his fists and said:

"The old man is heavy, and the old man will not hesitate to break his bones!"

Zhang Xian nodded and continued:

"Father, fifth uncle, you must ensure that the compressed grain and grass in the family continue to produce, this is our most stable financial route, the battle to suppress bandits, we have won two or three hundred thousand taels of silver, we had better reserve tens of thousands of stone grain, in case of emergency, in addition, the hundreds of sergeants who were injured and recovered from the previous bandits, but all those who have the ability to work are incorporated into the family camp, these sergeants who have participated in the bloody battle, even if they are injured, are not ordinary bandits can match."

Zhang Xian's father smiled and said:

"My son rest assured, these fathers and your fifth uncle have been arranged, just this year's New Year, our Zhang clan, each family has issued two hundred taels of silver, which is the income of several years before, plus the children of the clan have entered the school, everyone is full of praise for my son, even the clansmen who were with your uncles before, now they are begging to come back all day long, and promise to draw a clear line with your uncles, how should I deal with this matter?"

Zhang Xian told the truth, although he had a deep prejudice against these people in his heart, but for the sake of family stability, he held his mouth and said:

"The family and everything is prosperous, the family is the same, those clansmen want to come back, but there must be punishment, that is, to publicly cut off relations with several uncles, in addition, they are not there when the big guys are working hard, and they come back when they share the fruits, and they can't let them sit on an equal footing with everyone, otherwise it will be unfair rewards and punishments, and they will lose people's hearts, how to reward and punish, father and fifth uncle, you have full authority to deal with it, in addition, the child may be away for a long time in the future, or the position of the temporary patriarch of the father, otherwise, Some things are not easy to handle. ”

After Zhang Xian finished speaking, his father and fifth uncle both nodded, and Zhang Xian thought of the flame gun when he saw his father-in-law, and said to his father-in-law:

"Lord Yue, I heard that you have made four flame guns, and after using gasoline, the range has reached ten zhang, which has greatly exceeded expectations, congratulations! Master Yuezhang really deserves to be an old craftsman! This time, Xiao Xu wants to take all four flame guns away, and you have to continue to experiment, improve the process, and it is best to reach a distance of fifteen zhang. ”

Zhang Xianyuezhang smiled and said:

"Xianxu has a good reputation, or Xianxu's method works, now our measuring tools, the finest have reached the scale of the hair, the things made, the pass rate is greatly improved, the previous flame gun spray is not far away, careful comparison is that the scale is not fine, the pressure fader will leak in the fine place, after we improve, now the range is doubled.

In addition, we also found a new raw material weapon, that is, the thick oil residue left after the fierce fire oil extracts gasoline, although the burning fire is not fierce, but the combustion ability is super strong, once it sticks to the object, it will burn for at least half an hour, very terrifying! We soaked the oil residue with cotton and projected it with a small Persian stone thrower, and the oil residue fell within three feet of fire, and the choking smoke continued. ”

When Zhang Xian heard this, he didn't expect this stubble, because the oil that has been refined into gasoline is very viscous and has a super strong covering force, once it burns, it is far more difficult to extinguish than petroleum and crude oil, Zhang Xian laughed and said:

"Good! Lord Yuezhang is really a deputy general, Xiao Xu will also take some of this thing away! That gasoline is a fierce fire that can burn people, and that oil residue is a slow fire, which can burn city gates and even city walls, even if it can't burn people, it will smoke people to death, good thing! ”
