"This world is really chaotic, I originally thought that Jiangnan knew that it was stable, but I didn't expect that the Manchu army first captured Nanjing City, resulting in continuous war in the Jiangnan region, and now it is even more terrible, He Tengjiao and Zuo Mengeng This war together, the originally stable Huguang land may be difficult to clean, in this way, the people of Huguang are afraid that they will suffer a disaster again, I really don't know when the world will be able to return to peace, that way, when we can also be idle, visit the market every day, listen to small songs, It's not in vain. In the city of Xi'an, in the lively street market, a few people in regular clothes walked leisurely and spoke casually. The leader is Shi Lei.

"My lord, if you want to talk about this, you can't blame He Tengjiao, you know, Zuo Liangyu relied on his strength back then, and forcibly tied He Tengjiao, if it weren't for He Tengjiao's big life, he jumped into the water and escaped halfway, I'm afraid that now, the bones of this Lord He have already turned to ashes, when the Zuo family army was commanded by Zuo Liangyu, although they were all a group of rabble, but after all, there were hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but now, as soon as Zuo Liangyu died, Zuo Mengeng was still a milk doll who didn't understand anything, He Tengjiao would not take advantage of this time, took the opportunity to avenge this revenge, and he has lived in vain for so many years. Tong Chenfu on the side said with a smile.

Hearing Tong Chenfu's words, Jia Hanqing on the other side also interjected and said, "In my opinion, I'm afraid this matter is not so simple, you know, now He Tengjiao is still the governor of Huguang in our Ming Dynasty, and Zuo Liangyu is still the king of Jingxiang, he didn't even say a word, he directly raised troops to attack Zuo Mengeng, I'm afraid there are other ideas!" ”

"Hahahaha, as the old saying goes, 'The general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, and it is in the middle of this division and integration that countless people can be produced, heroes, and countless legends and allusions, if there are not so many legends and allusions in the world, then it is not very lonely, in troubled times, as long as it is a person who has his own ideas, the poor want to be rich, and the poor want to become noble, which is understandable, He Tengjiao's current approach is also very normal, after all, for us, whether it is He Tengjiao or Zuo Liangyu, Or the Manchu Qing or even Zhang Xianzhong, are the objects to be defeated, and at the same time, we are also the objects to be defeated, and in the end, there can only be one winner from it, and I hope that this final winner will be us. Shi Lei said with a smile.

Hearing Shi Lei's words, everyone around him nodded yes, and at the same time, Li Yan on the side opened his mouth and said, "My lord, should we intervene among them, you know, now Lu Daqi is also in Huguang, if he sends troops, it can also play a little role, after all, if Zuo Mengeng and He Tengjiao are allowed to fight like this, not to mention their losses, maybe in the end they will give the Manchus a chance to take advantage of, if we really let the Manchus go south to Huguang, I'm afraid we will be very passive, even if they won't lose both, We can also take advantage of this opportunity to make Zuo Mengeng feel pressured, so that he can transfer back the troops stationed in Nanyang. ”

"No, by all means, my lord, you know, Lu Daqi's army is the last force we left in the south, and it is good that they can barely maintain it now, if they are inserted between Zuo Mengeng and He Tengjiao at this time, I am afraid that both parties will regard him as a thorn in their side, and when the time comes, I am afraid that Lu Daqi will not have a good time, in addition, there is another aspect that Lu Daqi is an old subordinate of Lord Shi, and it is still unknown whether he will obey the orders of the adults." It was Jia Hanqing who spoke.

When it comes to marching and fighting, Jia Hanqing is probably not as good as a team leader, but when it comes to the various conspiracies and tricks in the court, and the rules of life, I am afraid that none of the people present can compare to Jia Hanqing, and even Tong Chenfu, who used to be Yang He's staff, must bow to the upper hand, and this time Jia Hanqing's purpose to dissuade Shi Lei is not anything else, but Lord Lu, the focus is on Lord Shi and Shi Kefa.

Hearing Jia Hanqing's words, Shi Lei immediately guessed the meaning of his words, you must know that Shi Lei, who mainly studied thick black during this time, although he usually didn't understand it, he could still hear such an obvious meaning.

Thinking of what Jia Hanqing meant, he couldn't laugh or cry, he never thought that in order to save Shi Kefa's tragic end, he wanted to leave a trace of righteousness for the Chinese nation, but it had become the most tricky thing for him now.

Since Shi Kefa came to Xi'an, he has been reused by Emperor Hongguang or the Empress Dowager Zhou, not only immediately promoted him to the position of a cabinet scholar and a secretary of the Ministry of War, but also a lot of weight, and a clear-eyed person knows that the emperor and the empress dowager are no longer satisfied with the current puppet behavior.

And Shi Kefa did not live up to the emperor's trust in the queen mother, soon after coming to Xi'an, he recruited a group of ministers, and Shi Lei, who held the actual power, sang a duet, of course, these ministers are some noble status, but there is no right to ministers, the real power of the whole Shaanxi is in the hands of Shi Lei's group of people, although there is real power in his hands, if he wants to deal with these people, it is a very easy thing, but Shi Lei did not do this, and also made some concessions appropriately. The reason why Shi Lei did this was not to be afraid of them, but to try to avoid conflicts, although in later generations, Shi Lei did not like history very much, but he also knew that many powerful forces in history were very powerful at the beginning, but it was often these forces that declined very quickly, in addition to individual reasons, the most important factor was that they fought with each other internally and led to their own decline, so, in order to avoid, the Shaanxi forces became one of these people, Shi Lei made concessions.

It's a pity that Shi Lei's walking behavior did not make these people feel satisfied, but made them think that Shi Lei was timid, so they were like soldiers who heard the charge, and rushed forward even more frantically. People who can't be scolded, Shi Lei can be said to be very broken, therefore, as soon as he heard Jia Hanqing talk about Shi Kefa, Shi Lei knew that it was better to avoid implicating Shi Kefa, otherwise, it might cause more trouble, after all, for the current Shaanxi, it is impossible for external enemies to easily hit them, and the only reason that can make them fail is internal disagreements.

"Okay, okay, today we are out to play, you better talk less about business, Brother Shi, I heard that there are many new things made in the craftsman camp outside the city, but usually we can't get in if we want to, otherwise, today we are all stained with your light, let's go in and see, those legendary artifacts." In the whole of Shaanxi, there is only one person who can be called Shi Lei's brother, that is, Feng Laohu, who was originally stationed in Yanmen Pass, in addition to him, even Fang Junchi and Jia Hanqing, who were the first to follow Shi Lei, all call him an adult.

Hearing Feng Laohu's words, looking at the curious expressions of the people around him, Shi Lei also put aside the unpleasant things in his heart, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, since the adults want to go and see it, then let's go over, to be honest, I haven't been over to see it for a long time, I don't know, what good things they have made." ”

After Shi Lei said these words, he was surrounded by everyone, and went towards the craftsman camp in the west of the city, saying that it was a craftsman camp, but in fact, it was also here in the west of the city, a wide place was specially demarcated, and a camp was built, which is different from the military camp, this is a place for craftsmen, all the craftsmen who come and go here are craftsmen, and all the excellent craftsmen under the control of Shaanxi are in it. Another reason is to be able to keep the secret well, no matter what the craftsman invents, as long as he is in the craftsman camp, there is no need to be afraid of being known by the enemy, for the safety of the craftsman camp, there is a battalion of elite Ming troops stationed here, and there are also people from the Nightingale Action Group monitoring inside, this kind of defense measures are stricter than Shi Lei's residence, which is why Feng Laohu said that he can't enter either, except for Shi Lei and a limited number of people, there is no corresponding token for others, As long as you get within 30 meters of here, you will be killed by random arrows at any time.

Under the leadership of Shi Lei, everyone entered the craftsman camp, and as soon as they entered, they saw the master craftsman Feng Cannon of the craftsman camp, under Shi Lei's attention, the craftsman who was originally not much stronger than the slave became a noble profession here, divided into several levels, from low to high, apprentice, craftsman, craftsman, craftsman, master craftsman, and this Feng cannon is the son of the Feng craftsman who made fireworks in Yulin City, and learned the production of fireworks and gunpowder with Feng Craftsman since he was a child. He used what he had learned to improve the gunpowder several times, and although it still did not reach the power of the yellow gunpowder of later generations, the gunpowder he made was much stronger than the gunpowder used in this era, and even better than the gunpowder used in Western countries now.

"Xiaguan Feng Cannon has seen the adult, but I didn't expect the adult to come back at this time, and the lower official has missed the distance, what a sin, a sin." In the craftsman camp, the real level is only up to the craftsman, the general craftsman or craftsman only has a difference in status, and there is no official position, and in order to be able to manage these craftsmen reasonably, Shi Lei chose some shrewd craftsmen, responsible for managing these craftsmen, that is, the position of the master craftsman, the treatment is the seven-grade official position, although it is only the lowest price in the official position, but for those craftsmen, it is already a very unexpected surprise, after all, thousands of years, I have not heard of a craftsman being an official.

Seeing Feng Dacang kneeling in front of him, a little scared, Shi Lei couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, to be honest, although this Feng Dacang is shrewd, he still can't change some of his original habits, so although he is an official now, he deliberately imitates some officials regardless of his behavior, so that not only does he not have a bit of an official position, but it makes people feel a little immutable, which is very ridiculous, but he doesn't know it, and he feels good about himself, and he has to show it every time.

"Okay, okay, Lord Feng, this time the official came here, not for official business, but to take you adults to take a good look at your craftsman camp, so don't be nervous, just take us to take a look at it, especially some new research good things, take them out and shine, and let us open our eyes." Shi Lei said to Feng Cannon.

After hearing Shi Lei's words, knowing that Shi Lei and the others were just coming to take a look at random, Feng Dacang didn't say anything, turned around and took them to start watching.

The entire craftsman camp is divided into three parts, the outermost part is the most ordinary place, which is responsible for building the most commonly used swords, guns, swords, halberds and armor and other items in the Ming army, and it is also the place with the largest number of people in the entire craftsman camp, there are 20,000 apprentices alone, and there are nearly 1,000 other craftsmen, craftsmen and craftsmen combined, although it seems that there are many people, but compared with the entire Ming army, it is simply too little, and the things created are in short supply at all.

The second part is a little more advanced, and the main thing here is to create some sophisticated things, and in addition, these things have to be modified to meet the requirements of the Ming soldiers, such as the chain of crossbow arrows made here.

And the third part, that can be said to be the entire craftsman camp, or the most important core of the entire Shaanxi force, here is also a strict place, the main production here are the most advanced things, many are Shi Lei according to the situation of later generations, draw out the graphics, or say some general situation, and then let some of the most elite craftsmen manufacture here, of course, most of the things, there is no way to make or will not be able to meet the production requirements for a while, but there are still some things that can be manufactured, It's like the huge water hammer that appeared in front of everyone's eyes, or the water conservancy collider, and saw a piece of stainless steel that had just been taken out of the charcoal fire, placed under the water hammer, and in just a few clicks, it turned into a thin steel plate.

This steel plate doesn't look very thin, but also very light, but it is unusually strong, not only can block the impact of the bow within thirty meters, but also has a good protective effect against the knife and gun stabbing in and out, so, after seeing this thing, the general's eyes are straight, and he refuses to move a bit, for fear that in the blink of an eye, everything in front of him will disappear.
