Chapter 403: Blacksmith Dongfeng

Yi Zhengqi wants to forge his own exclusive weapon, strictly speaking, this matter belongs to his own business, and others can't give him any ideas. Therefore, if there are any design drawings that are easy to recruit, they will take over in person, hoping to get a little inspiration.

The soldiers were even more enthusiastic about asking him to care so much. Even the groom, who couldn't even draw circles, got involved. One by one, they just seized this great opportunity: as long as they were precise, not only did they get a bounty, but they might also be able to serve by the prefect's side. Chief Yi is notoriously weird, and perhaps what he thinks really meets his requirements.

This night, Yi Zhengqi had several thick volumes of drawings, and his eyes were already exhausted. At this time, Tie Fei came in with tea and said in a low voice, "Sir, it's almost four o'clock in the morning, aren't you resting?" ”

Yi Zhengqi stretched his waist and sighed: "There are still some more, I'll rest." Tomorrow morning, we will continue to go to the arsenal base, and the craftsmen have not yet fully gotten started, so there is no delay. ”

Tie Fei said: "Since this is the case, then I won't disturb the chief." ”

Yi Zhengqi glanced up, Tie Fei was his own guard, although he had a broken arm, but because of this, his perseverance in cultivating martial arts was greater, no matter strength or loyalty, he could definitely become Yi Zhengqi's henchman. Yi Zhengqi has never treated him as an outsider, and Tie Fei said this sentence so politely.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Tie Fei looked at the drawings on the table, and said quickly: "Oh, it's actually a private matter of his subordinates. I'll make it clear that I have a distant cousin, the kind that is very far away. He is now seventeen years old, and he is also our Chaoge Army. I only came here a few days ago. I put his name on the roster, and it was really him. ”

Yi Zhengqi smiled faintly, picked up the tea and said, "Then congratulations, relatives recognize each other here." Is he okay? In the future, you should take care of him a little more. ”

Tie Fei seemed to be on his mind, and said with a smile: "My cousin is naturally smart, but he doesn't like to talk. Outsiders are a bit wooden. Their family has been making iron since they were children, don't be seventeen years old, but they have made a lot of ironware. I don't know why, their ancestors have liked to do this for generations, even if he is now in the Chaoge Army, he likes to cast. This time, he heard that there was an armament base here. ”

Tie Fei secretly glanced at Yi Zhengqi's expression, but there was nothing unusual, he simply continued: "He begged me if I could find a position for him in the weapons base." Sir, I know it's difficult, and I know that craftsmen need talent. But this is his wish since childhood, and I feel sorry for him. Can you let him try it and be an apprentice? May I? Sir! ”

Yi Zhengqi seemed to be considering the importance of these words, and the "cronyism" was something that Yi Zhengqi was very much against. But they have always been in the habit of dragging their families with their families, such as the Ye family, Ye Jianshu is the vice president of the United Chamber of Commerce and serves as the head of the curtain. His daughter Ye Qianteng is the chief of staff. As for the rest, there are even more.

Yi Zhengqifei glanced at it and said, "Craftsman is my old profession, and I know the difficulties inside." If you don't have a way, you won't be outstanding in your life. In this case, you bring people to me first, and I'll make plans. ”

"Okay, thank you, sir. When do you have free time, sir, how about bringing him in now? Tie Fei was very happy, as if this sentence was enough.

Yi Zhengqi was stunned: "You actually asked him to wait outside?" ”

"Yes. He came with me during his shift the next night. ”

Yi Zhengqi was already four o'clock, and he immediately said, "Then let him in." ”

After a while, Tie Fei went out and brought a young man in. The young man was not tall, and he walked a little floating, as if he had no strength in his whole body. His face was very clean, and he looked a little tired.

Tie Fei took this young man through it together.

Yi Zhengqi smiled: "What's your name?" ”

"Back to sir, my name is, oh, my subordinate is called Dongfeng."

"Dongfeng? Good name! I heard that you want to enter the military arsenal base and want to be a craftsman, so, do you know what a craftsman is? Yi Zhengqi asked casually. Dongfeng showed some timidity, I don't know if he was afraid of Yi Zhengqi's big commander or if he had always been like this.

Dongfeng shook his head: "I don't know." ”

Tie Fei panicked and immediately helped: "This kid has been striking iron since he was a child, and his grandfather praised him as a genius." ”

Dongfeng interrupted stiffly: "No, my grandfather has been calling me stupid and calling me stupid." ”

Yi Zhengqi was laughed at by his innocence, and said, "Come over early tomorrow and come with me to the arsenal base." When you get there, you'll be given three months. If you can't get used to it, come back and be a good one. ”

Tie Fei was already crying and mourning, but he didn't expect Yi Zhengqi to say this, he was overjoyed and shouted happily: "Stinky boy, don't thank Chief Yi soon." ”

"Thank you."

"Haha!! It doesn't have to be that way, you just have to put your mind to it. ”

Early the next morning, Yi Zhengqi led Dongfeng over, because Yi Zhengqi brought it over, even if Dongfeng couldn't. The craftsmen still have to give face, and for a while, the members of the various craftsman groups are vying to grab this big celebrity who walked through the back door. But what made Yi Zhengqi strange was that in less than three days, the craftsmen couldn't stand the east wind. Because he is too wooden, if only it is wooden.

Just as an arsenal base to raise a coolie. However, Dongfeng is not only wooden, he is also disobedient and does not speak. I don't listen to what anyone says, just my own and do my own. In many cases, when I go to the armament base, I sit for a day, and no one says anything.

The craftsmen sighed: "Where did he come to study, he came to prison." ”

Yi Zhengqi originally thought that he would ask in a few days, but suddenly he was delayed by the matter at hand. A letter came from outside the Eastern Great Wilderness Ranch, and Antares of the Gale Empire came over again. She also brought new conditions and treatment this time. It's a pity that I can't find it.

Stationed outside, they all sent a message to the Song Army: Antares seemed to be in a hurry to see the chief this time, and she even wanted to enter the sea of grass in person. Sir, do you want to take her to you?

Yi Zhengqi thought about it and replied to refuse.

No matter what Antares says, it will not be a good thing. Moreover, now that the war in the Gale Empire is tight, and the Far Eastern Empire is the time to get angry and take revenge, Yi Zhengqi doesn't want to touch this mold now. When two tigers fight, one will be injured. Let these two big tigers fight until they have no strength.

Of course, even sitting on a mountain and watching a tiger fight requires skill. Yi Zhengqi also sent a special message to Antares, telling her to calm down for a while, and now the Chaoge Army has just been rebuilt, and the people's hearts are disheartened. However, the Asagaku Army has already recruited 100,000 recruits and is currently strengthening their training. If Antares can help at this time, then she will definitely do her best to help the Holy Maiden in the future and fight for the world.

Immediately afterwards, Yi Zhengqi also took the trouble to hand over the list of supplies needed. They are: 500,000 catties of rice, 100,000 war horses, 100,000 pairs of war bows, 200,000 bundles of feather arrows, 50,000 sets of war armor, 100 ironclad trebuchets unique to the Gale Empire, 5,000 baskets of fresh fruits, and a number of heat-clearing and dehumidifying herbal teas.

I heard that this list only survived for a minute in Antares's hands, and was torn to pieces by Antares, and shouted: "Yi Zhengqi, you dare to insult me like this, I will kill you!" ”

Yi Zhengqi is not afraid of offending Antares, because the one who should be offended has already been offended. Now Antares will not be just a mouthful if there are forces to divide it.

That's it, Yi Zhengqi was busy training and raising people, and before he knew it, another two months had passed. On this day, the head of the arsenal base, Zhong Shun, rushed over in a hurry, and the old man was so angry that he almost jumped up and shouted, "Sir, you go quickly." A little later, our arsenal base will be destroyed. Nothing! ”

Yi Zhengqi was shocked: This is reasonable, the ordnance base is the most important, who has such courage to dare to move the ordnance base. He immediately walked briskly towards the ordnance base, Zhong Shun followed step by step, and explained: "Sir, it's the New Year again, and our craftsmen are thinking about whether to clean up the ordnance base and clean it up." While we were cleaning up, the east wind suddenly wreaked havoc. ”

"Sabotage?"

"Yes. On weekdays, he doesn't do anything, he just writes and draws all day long. I'm old, I thought he liked to design weapons, and I saw that he was very quiet, and I just did what he did on weekdays. However, today we took the machine off and wanted to clean it. Suddenly, he screamed and picked up his sword to cut the machine. ”

Yi Zhengqi frowned and said in a deep voice: "Then how is he now?" ”

"Oh, we called the guard to come in and restrained him. Because he was a craftsman, Xia Guan came over in person. ”

"Is there any damage to the machines in the base?"

"Fortunately, it was found in time. The machine wasn't broken, but he had broken the casting table somewhat. Zhong Shun thumped his chest.

Yi Zhengqi sighed secretly, as long as the casting machine was still preserved, he would be at ease. These are all strange machines, many of which Yi Zhengqi can't even understand, let alone build. If it is destroyed, there will be one less broken one. For example, a huge stone suspended two meters above the ground has been chiseled into an eyeball, and in the center of the stone, white streamers shoot out all day. If such a core stone is destroyed, even a hundred Yi Zheng will not be able to make up for it.

When Yi Zhengqi arrived at the military base, the craftsmen here were all frightened, and they all talked about the situation at that time as soon as Zhengqi arrived. Yi Zhengqi's platform used to forge war knives had been knocked over and scattered all over the ground.

Yi Zheng was angry in his heart, and he really wanted to be slashed. However, he was a distant cousin of Tie Fei, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the east wind?" Bring him to him, and ask him what his explanation? ”
