Goudan smiled happily and said, "Actually, you are also very powerful, but your strength is too small, but your knife skills are good; I don't think if we let go of a fight, we won't be able to win or lose in a hundred moves. ”

Li Zhi frowned, this shouldn't be like what a twelve-year-old child can say, it not only makes himself passable, but also gains respect, which is very similar to Wang Xu's usual style.

Li Zhi guessed right, this is what Wang Xu taught the dog to say, in the Western Capital, once you win the opponent, you have to say this, only by saying this can people respect you more, and the two sides will not grudge.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the Wuying Palace, and Wang Xu suddenly walked in.

"Big brother." The dog laughed and ran over.

Wang Xu said: "How is it, how is the victory?" ”

Li Zhi was ashamed and said: "Lord, this kid is really powerful, I am convinced, but when Zhang Meng and Sun Yu come back, you can let them try, I really don't know who wins and who loses." ”

Wang Xu smiled, left the Wuying Hall with the dog, and competed with Zhang Meng and Sun Yu, it was impossible to win, although the dogan was not bad, but Wang Xu could still judge it, it can only be said that in addition to Sun Yu and Zhang Meng, the strength of the dogan ranks first in the Western Capital!

The Academy of Science and Technology has already been set up, and Wang Xu walked over with the dog.

The territory of the Academy of Science and Technology is relatively large, occupying a circle of one mile, and it is set up on the east side of the Western Capital, next to Sun Yu's cavalry school, where there were originally a large number of private houses, but now it is owned by Wang Xu and guarded by a thousand Yulin Army.

Coming to this private house, Wang Xu walked in directly with the dog, and the Yulin Army knew Wang Xu, and they didn't stop him.

"Smack!"

There was a sudden loud noise inside, and the two of them ran in quickly, only to see that the smoke in the courtyard was thick, and the smell of huoyao was very strong, Wang Xu took a deep breath. Then he nodded with satisfaction, it's this smell, I haven't smelled it for a long time.

"Meet King Wen."

"Meet King Wen."

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

As soon as the smoke cleared, more than a dozen people came over to salute.

Wang Xu looked at it. "How's the research going?" ”

These dozen or so people are all Jinyi Guards, they were found by Ye Xiong, and one of them said: "King Wen, we have successfully researched it." "Everyone's face was smiling.

Wang Xu shook his head noncommittally, you try again. I'll look at the power.

With a sigh, the man walked out of the house with a fried yao wrapped in rice paper, and then lit the fuse on the top with an open flame, and then placed Zayan in the courtyard.

"Smack!"

As soon as the fuse burned out, it exploded immediately, Wang Xu took a closer look, the power was too small, and the modern kind of Spring Festival artillery was almost the same, how to use it to defend against the enemy?

"No, we have to continue researching."

Jin Yiwei was puzzled: "We really don't know how to study it." also let King Wen make it clear. ”

Wang Xu scratched his head, all the people present were martial artists who didn't understand science, this research on science is a bit difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, it must be studied, if the research is successful, it will be the golden finger in the future.

After thinking about it, Wang Xu said: "You can try to adjust the proportion of the three materials, such as 3 taels of charcoal, 3 taels of sulfur, and 3 taels of saltpeter that were put before; Now it's 3:2:3. Or 1:2:3 and so on, one by one. ”

Jin Yiwei nodded in understanding, Wang Xu said it again, and everyone understood.

"Alright. You guys start debugging now, and let me know when you're done. ”

"No."

Not many people know the news that this place is set up as a science and technology institute, even Jia Hui knows a little about it, Wang Xu has ordered Ye Xiong to completely block the news, and the Yulin army outside the valley dug up the saltpeter and transported it into the city at night, avoiding the search of the city guards.

There are still twenty days left until the Chinese New Year. Wang Xu's mood is very heavy, Zhang Xue is still in Languan, as soon as the imperial army comes, he must lead his troops there, otherwise Lu Yang will be angry, Zhang Xue will be miserable, this Wang Xu is very clear, so he is ready for a big war.

On this day, Li Yunhai came back from Hexi County, he bought more than 20,000 deniers of grain this time, as well as more than 1,000 war horses, Wang Xu was overjoyed and immediately gave him 3,000 taels of silver.

"King Wen, Hexi County has scarce grain, so it's not easy to buy, but there are quite a lot of horses."

"Then you go to Qingyuan County and North County, and the grain must be received."

Li Yunhai had no choice but to agree, but Qingyuan County is fighting hard now, and he can only be sent to death if he goes, Li Yunhai said: "Then I'll go to Beijun again, there are my friends over there, I'll let them help me collect it." ”

"Okay, as long as you can receive it, the silver will not be less than yours."

Having already tasted the sweetness, Li Yunhai said: "King Wen, don't worry, I'll go." ”

After Li Yunhai left, Wang Xu smiled, there is no need to worry too much about the food problem for the time being, Sun Yu and they will come back soon, and they will bring back 50,000 denier of grain at that time, which is enough for the army to eat for a month.

The most important thing now is the bombing of the Science and Technology Institute, which must be studied as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to resist once the imperial army arrives, plus Lu Yang's bastard, Wang Xu really wants to fight it now.

"Big brother, take a sip of tea." Xiangyue handed the tea to the desk.

Wang Xu picked it up casually and took a sip, and then said with a smile: "The tea made by Xiangyue is delicious." ”

Xiangyue smiled, and her dimples highlighted: "Then big brother will drink more." ”

"Xiangyue, sharpen the ink for me, I want to paint a few paintings."

After Wang Xu finished speaking, he picked up two pieces of rice paper and spread them on the desk, Xiangyue hummed and began to grind hard, seeing that Wang Xu picked up the brush, Xiangyue said: "What does the eldest brother want to draw?" ”

"You'll find out later." Wang Xu smiled and sold a pass.

Mo Qing, a little bit of the pen, Wang Xu painted boldly, and after a while, the two paintings were completed, Wang Xu smiled and blew the picture: "Look, do you know what I painted?" ”

Xiangyue looked at it, her brows furrowed, her face was puzzled, she thought about it and finally shook her head: "I don't know, is it a watermelon?" ”

"Probably, hehe."

Wang Xu picked up another picture, on which a bed was drawn, but it was not exactly a bed, because there were three giant bows and arrows drawn on the bed, and there were two black belts on both sides of the bed, and there were four wooden gears under the bed, if modern people saw it at this time, they must recognize it, this is the three-bow bed crossbow!

The three-bow bed crossbow is very powerful on the battlefield, the arrows are like javelins, and they can be directly nailed into the city wall when fired at close range, and when the salvo is fired, rows of treadling arrows are firmly nailed into the city wall, and the siege soldiers can climb up the city by this.

Of course, Wang Xu's painting is much more advanced than the ancient one, using a belt, and the ancients have not used this; Pulling the belt with a gear to pull the three giant bows and arrows apart at the same time, and then suddenly released, Wang Xu preliminarily estimated that he should be able to shoot more than 500 steps! Five times more than a normal bow and arrow.

Wang Xu has been precipitating in his heart for many days, and he didn't draw it until this time. (To be continued.) )
