A few days later.

Ye Xiong searched the entire Western Capital, and even the three cities in the west sent people, and the hard work paid off, and finally found a wholesale saltpeter pharmacy, Ye Xiong traced its roots, and found that the so-called saltpeter was actually under his nose.

"Lord, the owner of the pharmacy said that there is this kind of stone on the top of the valley outside the Western Capital, but the yield is scarce, and every time they dig a basket, they will use a sieve to remove the soil, and a hundred catties can sift out about one catty of saltpeter."

Wang Xu said: "Okay, this matter will be left to you, take the Yulin army to block the valley outside the Western Capital, and no one will be allowed to go up the mountain, and then dig up day and night, and after digging it out, it will be screened in situ, and only bring saltpeter into the city, but this matter must be kept secret, and even Jia Hui can't tell it, so as not to leak the news." ”

"Yes."

Wang Xu waved his hand and motioned for Ye Xiong to retreat: "You go and do it, and call Jia Hui by the way." ”

Ye Xiong left, and Jia Hui came in a hurry not long after.

"Lord, what called me?"

Wang Xu said: "Immediately set up an armory workshop, I will be of great use." ”

Armory? Jia Hui said: "We have it in the west of the city, don't you know?" Our armor, spears, shields, and so on are produced from there. Next, he had to supervise the construction of chariots. ”

Wang Xu said: "Re-establish one, um... It's not called an armory, it's called a science and technology institute, yes, it's called a science and technology institute! ”

"What does the Academy of Science and Technology do?" Jia Hui wondered.

Wang Xu's expression was a little serious: "You are only responsible for dividing the territory of the Science and Technology Institute, you don't need to know the rest; The Science and Technology Institute is managed by me personally, guarded by the Yulin Army, and no one else is allowed to trespass, including you! ”

Jia Hui was shocked in his heart, and secretly said that this matter was unusual, and he was not even qualified to know, which was really weird.

However, since Wang Xu said so, Jia Hui had no choice but to comply, and he immediately solemnly bowed. said: "Don't worry, the lord will do it." ”

"Wait, you can send someone to collect a large amount of charcoal and sulfur now, and after collecting it, it will be transported directly to the Academy of Science and Technology. But remember, this matter must not leak the slightest rumor! ”

"No."

Jia Hui left.

Now that everything is in place, all that remains is to study the fried zhayao, Wang Xu only remembers to mix these three materials, as for how many materials are needed for each catty of fried yao. It's not very clear, but it's okay, you can try it, and you can only succeed if you try.

............

On this day, good news came from Qingyuan County, Sun Yu and others had defeated the officers and soldiers, Hu Ling was leading his subordinates to expand their territory at the moment, Miao Zang was also attacking the city, and the entire Qingyuan County was in the midst of war.

Sun Yu's cavalry lost 4,000 and was garrisoning in a certain county at the moment. Waiting for Hu Ling to come up with food, in general, the prospects of Qingyuan County are very good.

As the sun set, Wang Xu wanted to go to the military camp outside the city, because there were still 50,000 young men there, who were in charge of Tuntian, and Murong Yuan was currently in charge of this matter.

For Murong Yuan, Wang Xu was still very satisfied, Ye Xiong sent people to keep an eye on him for several days, and people were busy all day long without touching the ground. It's really hard, but he's still doing a lot of work, Wang Xu can only hehe.

When passing by the gate of the outer city, Wang Xu saw an incredible thing. It seems that another fierce general has been found, uh... No, it's supposed to be a strong man.

Wang Xu stopped to watch, and saw a child about twelve years old in the city, holding a big stone in his hand and running towards the city, yes. It's just running! It was difficult for others to take a step, but he felt relaxed.

The big stone that the child was holding was bigger than everyone else's, and it was not proportional to the child's body, Wang Xu preliminarily judged that it should be more than 100 catties!

A child can lift more than 100 catties, which is very surprising to Wang Xu, some adults can't do it, such as Wang Xu himself, if he is allowed to lift 100 catties over his head, it will definitely not work.

Suddenly, something happened that made Wang Xu even more surprised, in front of the child, an old man couldn't bear the weight of the stone in his hand, and fell, and suddenly, the child instantly shot out and quickly took over the stone that was about to fall to the ground.

! This is a master, how can he move stones here, it's too condescending, right?

The child now held a stone in one hand, walked up the wall quickly, then lowered the stone and drank a sip of water.

Two stones, that is at least two hundred catties, but in the hands of a child, it is like playing, Wang Xu smiled happily, and strode towards the city tower.

It seems that today is going to accept a fierce general, I will say, this talent is everywhere, but it is impossible to find! You deliberately went to him, but he didn't come, you didn't go to him, but he sent it to the door by himself, hehe.

When they came to the city, the homeless people saw Wang Xu saluting one after another, Wang Xu waved his hand, and then asked everyone to continue.

Coming to the child's side, Wang Xu reached out and touched his arms, and said, "Little child, what's your name?" ”

Obediently, as soon as Wang Xu's hand touched the child's hand, he could clearly feel that it was as hard as iron, this is too strong, I can't imagine it, Wang Xu touched his arm again, it is incomparable, loose, where is it like a war.

The child was at a loss, but he knew very well that the person in front of him was King Wen, and he also knelt down to salute just now, King Wen asked, and the child immediately said: "Back to King Wen's words, my name is Dogdan." "The voice is childlike, a little sharp.

Enough eggs? What is the name of this, but it is very simple, you know that it is a countryman when you hear this name, and many people have called this name in ancient Chinese history, which is very common; There is a saying in the countryside that 'pigs come to be poor, dogs come to get rich', so children will be given the name dog eggs when they are born, which means that they will bring wealth to the family.

"I see that you have so much strength, why don't you join the army?"

The child was a little angry and muttered, "I went, but they said I was too young to let me join the army." ”

Wang Xu understood, the age of joining the army was still set by himself, and Wu Yingdian had to be at least fourteen years old to participate in the assessment, it seemed that this kid was left behind, but now it's okay, I finally didn't miss it, and I let myself meet it again.

"Dog, will you follow me in the future, I'll take you to the army."

The dog was overjoyed and said, "Okay, is there no age limit?" ”

Wang Xu thought for a while and said, "No restrictions, exceptions for you!" ”

The two hit it off, Wang Xu walked down the city wall with the dog, originally going to the military camp outside the city, but after thinking about it, Wang Xu decided not to go, because now he wants to know how high the dog's martial arts are. (To be continued.) )
