Chapter 15: Ling Zhen

PS: Thank you for the four rewards of life and death for drawing the sword. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

As the name suggests, the Tokyo Armory is a place where various weapons are stored, mainly the weapons of the forbidden army.

The policy of the Great Song Dynasty is very thorough, and the armor has always been the best equipment in the Great Song Dynasty, especially the Divine Arm Crossbow.

Li Jing didn't have the idea of fighting the Divine Arm Crossbow, but he just gave up after thinking about it, the Divine Arm Crossbow can be said to be the highest military secret in the Great Song Dynasty in terms of weapons, and every Divine Arm Crossbow destroyed from the production path must be memorized, and the inspection is stricter than that of a war horse. Unless it is to buy all the officials of this subordinate and subordinate level, otherwise, don't even think about this divine arm crossbow.

Even, even if the Divine Arm Crossbow is equipped in the army, there are special personnel responsible for maintaining and inventory.

The war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia in the Zhezong period took a big advantage, and the seed master Dao, that is, the old seed scripture that Lu Zhishen often said, rose at that time.

The seed family is also a family of generals, who have guarded the northwest for generations, and their reputation is not weaker than that of the Yang family, and even when the Yang family is gradually declining, the seed family will still be active in the northwest frontier.

After that, although there were scattered conflicts, it was not until the time for a major mobilization.

However, at the beginning of this year, under the leadership of Tong Guan and the Seed Master, the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia fought again, and the national strength of the Western Xia was not as good as a year.

Therefore, even if you want to take advantage of the war, it is extremely difficult to obtain some divine arm crossbows.

・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・

Li Jing came to the Jiazhan Library today, not for the Divine Arm Crossbow, of course, if there is a chance, Li Jing will not let it go.

Li Jing came here only for one person - the current deputy envoy of the armor treasury - Ling Zhen!

When Li Jing was in Tokyo, he had contact with Ling Zhen, and Li Jing didn't know much about gunpowder, at most he knew a **, one sulfur, two nitrate and three charcoal, and this ratio was also inaccurate. Moreover, the purification technology of this era is obviously not good, and the gunpowder prepared is not pure at all.

Regarding this shallow knowledge, Li Jing mostly told Ling Zhen that he had asked Ling Zhen to transform the current thistle terrestris, and wanted to see if he could make a grenade, which could be regarded as a contribution to this era.

This is also the simplest firearm Li Jing can think of.

After all, the current process is too difficult for the firecracker, and even if it is barely made, I am afraid that it can only be made by beating birds・・・・・・

"The arsenal is heavy, and the idlers stop!" As soon as Li Jing approached the vicinity of the armor storehouse, he was stopped by the sergeant guarding the armor storehouse.

"I am the deceased of Deputy Envoy Ling, I just went to Deputy Envoy Ling's house, and I learned that Deputy Envoy Ling was working, so I came to ask!" As he spoke, Li Jing quietly handed a piece of broken silver to the sergeant who had stopped him.

The sergeant weighed it for a moment, smiled at the time, and said to Li Jing: "Don't worry, official, I'll go and report to Deputy Envoy Ling!" ”

Li Jing thanked him: "That's the case, thank you!" ”

At the end, Li Jing explained: "Just explain to Deputy Envoy Ling that my surname is Li, the person who discussed gunpowder with Deputy Envoy Ling at the beginning, Deputy Envoy Ling will understand!" ”

Although the sergeant didn't know why the person in front of him didn't directly say his name, the money was finally in hand, and the person in front of him was obviously an old envoy with Deputy Ling, so there was no need to delve into it.

After saying hello to the sergeant on the side, and signaling that the interests of the meeting would be equalized, the sergeant went to the office yamen of the armor warehouse.

・・・・・・

After a long time, I saw that the sergeant had returned, but he had an indescribable expression on his face, and he wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh.

When he came to Li Jing's side, the sergeant didn't wait for Li Jing to speak, and said, "Official, Deputy Envoy Ling invites you in・・・・・・ please come with me!" ”

"Thanks for showing the way!" Li Jing said, handed the sergeant a small ingot of silver, and waited for the sergeant to lead the way. I was just curious why the sergeant had such an expression before.

Sure enough, after the sergeant accepted Li Jing's broken silver, he rubbed it for a while, and suddenly said to Li Jing: "Official, the appearance of Deputy Envoy Ling is a bit unsightly now, and I ask the official to be a little prepared・・・・・・"

"I see, that's ・・・・・・" However, Li Jing remembered that although Ling Zhen was enthusiastic about research, he did not ignore his appearance, in the final analysis, Ling Zhen was also an official, not an official, but an official, although it was the size of a sesame seed, but it was also an official, and Ling Zhen usually attached great importance to this aspect.

However, after only taking two steps, Li Jing felt a muffled boom not far away, the sound was not loud, but Li Jing could hear it, it was very similar to the sound of gunpowder explosion.

"Is this often the case here?" , Li Jing asked the sergeant.

The sergeant replied: "No, it's just that I don't know how these days, there are such voices every day, but the sound is not loud, Deputy Envoy Ling explained it earlier, and I don't care." ”

"Oh・・・・・・", Li Jing nodded, presumably Ling Zhen had come up with something new and was experimenting.

・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・・

Not long after, the sergeant took Li Jing to the inner room and said, "Official, it's here!" ”

Li Jing thanked him again, and the sergeant retreated happily, after all, he had also earned some silver today.

In front of Li Jing was a courtyard, which was not installed on the door, and when Li Jing walked in, he saw three people squatting in a clearing in the courtyard, and the three of them were in a circle, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Ahem・・・・・・", Li Jing coughed lightly, trying to arouse the ideas of the three people in front of him, however・・・・・・

A gust of wind blew・・・・・・ nothing happened・・・・・・

Li Jing even had a hallucination: three crows flew over the leader, and they kept calling "Fool!" "Fool! ”・・・・・・

"Brother Ling!" After standing for a long time, Li Jing opened his mouth again.

This time, all three of them turned back.

It's just that ・・・・・・・ looking at the three people with gray faces, Li Jing couldn't tell which one was Ling Zhen.

Fortunately, the person closest to Li Jing stood up first.

Maybe it was Sergeant Fang Cai who reported it, Ling Zhen was prepared, and after seeing Li Jing, Ling Zhen didn't show how surprised he was, and said, "Brother Li, you're here!" ”

After a pause, Ling Zhen continued: "Brother Li, come and see, how powerful is this gunpowder?" ”

When Li Jing looked at Ling Zhen, he saw that his face was black, and he couldn't see the specific appearance clearly, so he made the slightly exposed teeth and the whites of his eyes look very white.

This couldn't help but remind Li Jing of a certain toothpaste advertisement in later generations・・・・・・
