Chapter 388: Veteran Yu Dayou

The soldier who stood like a javelin at the gate of the camp saw Qin Lin leading the crowd to fight horses from afar, as if he didn't know the flying fish suit they were wearing, and he was still two arrows away, and the leader raised the red flag in his hand, and under an order, the soldiers opened their bows and arrows, and the spears pointed obliquely at a distance, and there were shadows and figures shaking on the hills on both sides, and they had already been heavily guarded.

The general was ready to stop, raised his hand and shouted: "Before the gate, no galloping horses are allowed to conflict, and people come to get off the horse and get off the horse!" ”

Lu Yuanzhi and Niu Dali were surprised when they saw this: Jinyi Wei is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and they greet each other with a smile wherever they go to the barracks.

Qin Lin also saw this kind of formation for the first time, and the situation was very different from the situation of Nanjing Zhuwei and Zhejiang soldiers' camp, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he already knew the reputation of Yu Dayou's army, and he didn't feel strange when he thought about it, jumped off the horse and walked a few steps, raised his waist card from afar and said: "This official is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the acting head of the Southern Ya Qin Lin, this is the official's palace waist card, please check it." ”

The general manager didn't move, and sent a sentry officer to come over to check the waist card, and the sentry officer looked at Qin Lin and the others again, and saw that the horse was still branded with the logo of Jinyiwei, which was indeed the official school of Jinyiwei, so he took off a small green flag on his waist and waved it in the wind.

The general who was strictly guarding the gate saw it and waved the red flag three times into the air, and the soldiers lifted their guard and stood straight again against the cold wind, and the shadowy figures on the hillside disappeared.

Qin Lin led the brocade clothes and the official school, led the horse and slowly walked to the camp gate, the general clasped his fists and saluted, the iron armor on his body was sonorous, and his voice was like a golden stone: "I can't salute the armor under the standard, may I ask the chief here, why is it here?" ”

"General Yu's army is really strict, it is really worthy of Zhou Yafu's reincarnation, and your camp is really strong......" Qin Lin smiled and praised a few words, but seeing that the one was always unmoved, and the smile on his face didn't get a few points, our Chief Qin couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, so he said directly: "For the several sergeants imprisoned by General Yu in your battalion, involving the case of Chen Minghao, the general of my Jinyi Wei Han Dynasty, who beat people to death, this official specially came to your camp to mention those sergeants for questioning. ”

As soon as Qin Lin's words fell, the sergeant guarding the door frowned, and his expression revealed a bit of hostility.

After thinking about it for a while, he said coldly: "So that the chief knows that my general is busy reorganizing the army, and I am afraid that he will not have time to meet guests." Mark this and go in to inform you, see it or not, and see what the general says. ”

With that, he turned around and walked into the camp.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing him come out, the captains in brocade clothes were stomped by the wind, but the sergeants guarding the door looked at them and sneered.

Lu Yuanzhi pulled Qin Lin aside and muttered a complaint: "Brother Qin, that Yu is really hateful, asking us to stand here and eat the wind, but didn't you deliberately take it big?" He is a small Beijing battalion general, and he is about to catch up with the generalissimo! ”

Qin Lin had seen Yu Dayou's life in the Jinyi Wei secret file, and said with a smile: "This old man has been stubborn all his life, he has been wronged and aggrieved seven times, degraded four times, and imprisoned once, all of them have suffered this loss, he even dares to offend the governor and Shangshu, where do you care about how many of us are?" But he is really good at governing the army, you look at this camp, this army, tsk, amazing! ”

Yu Dayou has made great contributions to the anti-Japanese war, but because his surname is loyal and hot, he has been bumpy all his life, sometimes he is reused, his reputation is prominent, sometimes he is degraded, and he has become a prisoner.

Lu Yuanzhi was in Nanjing, and he also listened to a lot of jokes about Yu Dayou's breaking the Japanese in the teahouse restaurant, and knew that he was a general who had contributed to the country.

After waiting for a while, the general cai came out of the camp and said: "Chief Qin, my general is busy with camp affairs, and I don't have time to see you for the time being. ”

Qin Lin had already guessed the reason from the attitude of him and the sergeant guarding the door, and said in a deep voice: "This general brother, you must have misunderstood, we are not here to stand up for the Yang Mansion, the governor of Jiliao, but we really have something to ask the sergeants who were present at the time." ”

The general sneered again and again, obviously not believing it, knowing that Chen Minghao was just a powerless and powerless general, how could the family invite a court official who was in charge of the Nanya in Jinyi to take the lead in handling the case for him? And Yang Zhao, the governor of Jiliao, is different, saying that he moved out of his house to suppress the military households, which is about the same.

"Why don't you know what to do?" Lu Yuanzhi was annoyed, and said angrily: "My Qin chief is trying to judge the yin and yang, and he is aware of everything, this is to find out the facts of the case before he comes to mention people, which one is changed, will he come to your ghost place on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, against the north wind?" ”

But the general manager had already preconceived, and he refused to believe that there would be a Jinyi Hall Shangguan braving the wind and snow, so in order to find out the ordinary murder case involved in a small Han general, he ran to a place so far away from the city the day before Chinese New Year's Eve.

Qin Lin was helpless for a while, he handled many cases in the south, and his reputation in the north was not obvious, it seemed that these sergeants did not know his reputation.

Suddenly, Qin Lin touched his chin with a smile, and said to the general: "Please reply to your general, there is still a place where the stun gun can be improved, the gunpowder does not need to be mixed temporarily, and it is not easy to get wet, if he is interested, please come out and meet." ”

The general opened his eyes wide and looked at Qin Lin in great surprise, and finally entered the letter with suspicion.

This time it was much faster, and in a blink of an eye, I saw several people hurrying out of the Chinese military tent, and one of the veterans at the head of the group almost trotted, only to see that his eyebrows were bright, his complexion was like iron and his cheeks were flushed, although he was too old, his eyes were still bright, and his body was quite tall, wearing an old battle robe, and he was also covered with iron armor and an iron helmet on such a cold day, and he strode towards a meteor.

This is the famous and famous general Yu Dayou, who is called Yu Long and Qi Hu with Qi Jiguang.

Just now, the general and several lieutenant officers trotted behind the main general, and these soldiers guarding the camp gate rubbed their eyes even more: Our chief general, even if the big official arrives, he is also graceful, not arrogant or humble, who has ever seen him run all the way to greet him?

Yu Dayou was condescending, and Lao Yuan asked extremely eagerly: "Who is Chief Qin?" Is there really a way to improve gunpowder? ”

This veteran really has to be like this to be able to move, Qin Lin grinned, and arched his hand at him: "General Yu, the lower official Jinyi Weinan Town Fu Si Qin Lin, the new electric gun and thunder gun used by your camp are presented to the imperial court by the Duke of Wei Guo, and the lower official is also a little bit of a hole here." ”

Yu Dayou knew that the new firearms were presented to the imperial court by Xu Bangrui, the Duke of Wei in Nanjing, and heard Qin Lin say that he was the son-in-law of the Duke of Wei, and he believed in his statement that he could improve gunpowder, and when he came out, he grabbed his hand, and was extremely enthusiastic: "Come on, come on, Chief Qin, please, cough cough, I didn't know it was you just now, I was slack, I'm really sorry!" ”

Seeing this, Lu Yuanzhi and the pro-soldier captains couldn't help but laugh in their stomachs, and said in their hearts that Yu Dayou was also honest and cute, and said that he was deliberately missing just now, and now he knew that Chief Qin had a research on new firearms, so he was busy coming out to greet him.

Qin Lin complained bitterly, this Yu Lao'er was too old, but the strength in his hands was terrifying, he was afraid that Niu Dali, who was not inferior to the innate divine power, pulled his wrist, like an iron hoop, and his bones were about to be broken by him, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly:

"General Yu, you can talk about gunpowder slowly, if you work harder, the hand of the subordinate will be broken first!"

Yu Dayou's face turned red, he quickly let go, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was a young man, and I learned a few kung fu of a three-legged cat, and my hands are so strong that I made Chief Qin laugh." ”

What about the kung fu of the three-legged cat? In his early years, he studied swordsmanship and riding archery with Li Liangqin, a Shaolin master who was proficient in Jing Chu long sword, and after the completion of swordsmanship, he was the first in the world.

When the Shaolin Temple was famous, Yu Dayou went to Shaolin with a sword, defeated dozens of masters of Dharma Hall and Luohan Hall, so that the Shaolin monks were willing to bow down, and asked him for swordsmanship, Yu Dayou wrote the "Sword Sutra" to teach Shaolin monks the methods of rigidity and softness, yin and yang, attack and defense, movement and static, and judging the situation.

There is a saying in the rivers and lakes that "the world's martial arts come out of Shaolin", Yu Dayou was able to make dozens of Shaolin masters bow down with one person and one sword, and this swordsmanship is the first in the world.

Qin Lin had long heard that Yu Dayou's swordsmanship was invincible in the world, and when he heard him talk about the kung fu of the "three-legged cat", his heart suddenly moved.

After entering the general's tiger tent, the guests and hosts sat down, and before they had drunk two sips of tea, Yu Dayou hurriedly asked for advice on how to improve gunpowder.

Qin Lin explained the manufacturing method of wet gunpowder.

What Wei Guogong presented to the imperial court was mainly the improvement of firearms and the firecracks used for firing, and then Qin Lin suddenly remembered the wet gunpowder - he had handled a case of privately manufacturing firearms, and the criminal used this method to make gunpowder.

After the ordinary powder gunpowder, sulfur saltpeter and other substances are mixed, the transportation distance is long, and the heavier saltpeter falls to the bottom, and the lighter charcoal goes to the top, and it has to be shaken evenly when used, which is inconvenient at all, and it is easy to get wet.

Wet gunpowder is to mix all kinds of powder into water, mix evenly like kneading dough, and then sieve into particles of the same size, and finally dry, so that the sulfur saltpeter charcoal in each small gunpowder is uniform, and firmly stuck together, and will not be stratified up and down due to the transportation process.

And granular gunpowder is more resistant to moisture than powdered gunpowder.

This production method is very simple, and it is not troublesome to use in the military at all, but it can solve practical problems.

"Hey, there's such a simple way! cough cough cough cough ......" Yu Dayou slapped his thigh and coughed happily: "Okay, in fact, the general was worried that the Yang Mansion would bully people, so he protected a few sergeants in the name of confinement, and if Chief Qin wants to ask, just ask, cough cough, just don't arrest them." ”

Qin Lin arched his hand with a smile: "Thank you." In addition, the lower officials have another matter to ask for trouble, and they are going to bother General Yu. ”
