"How can a good firearm blow up, either the craftsmanship is not perfect, or it is cutting corners!" Qiao Fu muttered quietly.

But the old man Zhao's ear voice was very good, and he suddenly raised his eyebrows, struggled to sit up, and said breathlessly: "The old man has been making fire guns for three generations, what three-eyed guns, thunderbolts, bird guns, guns, even the latest Lu Mi guns, I can do them all, I dare not say that there is no one in the world who is better than the old man, at least in the land of Liaodong, the old man's craftsmanship can rank in the top three!" ”

Lao Zhao said categorically, it is not like lying and bragging, Zhang Ke was suddenly surprised, he can make so many kinds of firearms, he is definitely an amazing talent! Xu Daqian, a fool, actually let such a person dig coal, it is simply a tyrannical thing! If this old man is in his hands, there will be hope for the firearms exhibition.

Zhang Ke squatted down and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao, if you can't make a good firecracker, the problem is not you, but in the imperial court, in the greed for ink, in exploitation, am I right?" ”

The old man sighed and nodded weakly.

"It is best to use six catties of fine iron for a bird's gun, and it takes more than forty catties of wool iron to forge it, iron, plus carbon, drills, craftsmen's clothes and food, there are no three or five taels of silver, don't think about making a good firecracker. However, the money allocated by the imperial court to make a fire gun is more than two taels, and it is deducted layer by layer, and when it comes to us, it is only one or two. Just a little bit of silver, but let the enough amount be made, it can only be shoddy, and raw iron is used instead of refined iron! ”

Lao Zhao said that tears flowed and he stayed, and the green tendons in his temples collapsed.

"Jiannu broke Tieling, and the soldiers and civilians of the city were either killed in battle, but were slaughtered. The old man was also caught at that time, and they told me to clean up the body. A young offspring was lying in a pool of blood, and the old man saw with his own eyes that a young man was sixteen or seventeen years old, still holding a fire hammer in his dead hand, gritting his teeth, and there was anger in his eyes! But the firebolt didn't go off at all, but exploded. Wounds on the face, chest, arms, all wounds! Well, the fire gun was made by the old man! I'm incompetent, I'm damned! The soldiers could not kill the enemy, the hometown was ruined, and the villagers were slaughtered! What kind of thing am I, and what kind of face is a firecracker! ”

Zhao Lao pimple clenched his thin fist and slammed the ground, and the back of his dark hand came out dark red!

Zhang Feng and Qiao Tieshan, who were listening, unconsciously clenched their fists, their teeth chattering.

There is no shortage of warriors who died for the country, but they were harmed by the bureaucratic system that was corrupted to the roots. It seems to sound in the ears the desperate cries of those soldiers, who fought bravely regardless of life and death, but died on their own firearms, which is simply the greatest irony!

Zhang Ke silently clenched his fists, his nails dug into the flesh, and a drop of blood flowed out.

"Mr. Zhao, Zhang wants to build a firecracker, it is for the purpose of protecting the family and the people, and all the people who use the firecracker are my blind dates and brothers, and even Zhang himself, and it is categorically not allowed to be shoddy. How much money does it cost for me, and what materials are needed to ensure the supply. And I can also guarantee that in the future, all craftsmen who make firecrackers can receive a stipend as long as they pass the firecracker inspection. Of course, if you don't do well, you will be punished, and even disqualified as a craftsman! ”

Lao Zhao listened to Zhang Ke's words, frowned, and finally couldn't help laughing at himself: "My lord, you may not know, the craftsman is the least valuable, he has been a craftsman all his life, and his children and grandchildren are cattle and horses. ”

"Hahaha, that's elsewhere, under my hands, as long as each craftsman has obtained the qualification of a craftsman, the monthly salary is five taels, and the highest one is thirty taels, and the allowance is not counted, this salary can't be said to be worthless, right?"

It's not just that it can't be said, it's just a step to the sky!

The actual first-grade master of the Ming Dynasty is only in his early two hundred, and if he becomes the most senior craftsman, he can get three hundred and sixty taels a year, which is almost equivalent to two first-grade masters, so many that the big guys think Zhang Ke is crazy!

Zhang Feng stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Ke's head, it's not hot!

"Second brother, did you say something wrong? If it's really thirty taels a month, I want to be a craftsman! ”

Zhang Ke looked at the surprised crowd and smiled slightly: "The soldier has a good fire gun in his hand, and when he arrives on the battlefield, he may be able to kill one more enemy and save his life!" A Tartar's head is fifty taels, and if one brother dies for one less brother, the pension will be a lot less. You can save money anywhere, but you can't save money on the equipment of the brothers. I, Zhang Ke, will never joke with the life and death of my brothers! ”

When the words came out, everyone was stunned, and for five seconds they were silent, and suddenly someone took the lead and knelt on the ground.

"My lord's benevolence, righteousness and kindness, we will engrave it in our hearts, for my lordship to go up the sword mountain and down to the sea of fire, I will never give up!"

"Never give up!"

Hundreds of soldiers roared together, especially loud.

Zhao Lao Pimple looked at these young soldiers, and then at Zhang Ke, his fists clenched tightly.

"My lord, you are a good official, and it is my blessing that the old man can meet you. I promised you to make you the best firecracker! ”

……

Zhao Lao Pimple and Ou Chongyuan joined, Zhang Ke's subordinates had cold eyebrows, these are two treasures, they must not be neglected, Zhang Ke hurriedly asked Ma Biao to escort them back to Daqing Fort to recuperate first, and Zhou Langzhong also went back, but Ou Chongyuan refused.

The reason is very simple, Xu Daqian hasn't won it yet, maybe there will be a battle, and it is the most important thing to let Zhou Langzhong treat the soldiers more.

Zhang Ke did not forget Xu Daqian, there are not only more than 100 soldiers at the moment, but also almost 100 miners. It can be regarded as a large number of people, and it drove towards Zhenyi Fort.

At this time, Xu Daqian had already fled back to Zhenyi Fort, there were only a dozen of the fifty cavalry under his command, and only thirty or forty of the two or three hundred soldiers he brought with him fled back, and Xu Daqian still had an arrow stuck in his shoulder, which made him grin with pain.

Turning around suddenly, he happened to see Lan Banxian hiding in the crowd, Xu Daqian was furious, grabbed Lan Banxian by the collar, and lifted him up.

"It's all your bad idea from this rice bucket, Lao Tzu killed you!"

"Don't! Don't! Lord Xu, the little one doesn't know that Zhang Ke is so powerful, the top priority is to think about how to defend the city, otherwise Zhang Ke will come in, but there will be no good end! ”

Xu Daqian also knew that the situation in front of him was bad, and he slammed Lan Banxian to the ground.

"Say, if you have any ideas, you can't say it, Lao Tzu will kill you!"

"Yes, yes!" Lan Banxian hurriedly agreed: "My lord, the little one thinks that he should defend Zhenyi Fort first, and then he will send someone to Yizhou to ask for help, so he will say that Zhang Ke is making trouble and slaughtering Paoze." You and him are both prepared, Zhang Ke shouldn't dare to kill you! ”

Xu Daqian clutched the knife in his hand and snorted angrily. After thinking about it, I didn't have any other ideas.

"Just do as you say!"

Suddenly, someone hurriedly ran over and shouted in a panic: "My lord, it's not good, the soldiers of Daqing Fort are here!" ”

"Too much deception!" Xu Daqian slammed the tea bowl on the ground, turned around and rushed out.

"Sue every family in the city has a ding, follow Lao Tzu to guard the city, no one will come out, Lao Tzu will destroy him all over the door!"

Xu Daqian let go of the cruel words, carried a knife, took his cronies to the city, and looked out, only to see that two or three hundred people had surrounded Zhenyi Fort.

A young man stood in the middle of all the soldiers, young, majestic, murderous! It was Zhang Ke, the enemy of the enemy, Xu Daqian gritted his teeth and forcibly suppressed his anger.

"The surname is Zhang, we are all officials of the Ming Dynasty no matter what, you attack Xu someone's Zhenyi Fort like this, aren't you afraid to say that you are rebelling?"

Xu Daqian said it loudly, but he couldn't hide his fear.

Zhang Ke sneered: "Xu Daqian, since you know that they are all soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, why did you plot against Zhang and drive so many people to Daqing Fort, don't I know your vicious heart?" ”

Xu Daqian also knew that he was at a loss, and hurriedly said: "Lord Zhang, this matter is something that Xu does not consider, but you have seized Shuangshantai and killed so many of my subordinates, isn't it enough?" Killing people is not enough, you really want to tear your face, Xu is not a vegetarian, with your hundreds of people, you can't beat Zhenyi Fort! ”

Xu Daqian's words were not wrong, Zhang Ke lacked artillery in his hands, and he also lacked shields, vehicles, ladders and other things for the siege, and what was even worse was that the soldiers of Daqing Fort had not had time to train to attack the city. Climbing the walls of two or three battles and fighting with the other side will definitely lead to heavy losses.

Seeing Zhang Ke hesitate, Xu Daqian only thought he was afraid, and hurriedly said: "Lord Zhang, as long as you let Xu go on a horse, Xu is willing to sacrifice three hundred taels of silver to atone for his sins!" ”

"Hahaha, hahaha!" Zhang Ke suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, making everyone confused.

"Lord Xu, you're right, we're all prepared, what's not to say, as long as we can get along in harmony in the future and help each other, we will still be good friends......"

Xu Daqian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart that Zhang Ke, this kid is still inexperienced, as long as Lao Tzu escapes a catastrophe, he will definitely sue him ruthlessly, if he doesn't collapse you to death, Lao Tzu will not be called Xu Daqian!

The miners who came with Zhang Ke looked at each other one by one, just now Master Zhang swore to kill Xu Daqian, how could he reconcile with him in a blink of an eye, sure enough, it was the protection of officials and officials, there was no good thing!

At this moment, Zhang Ke's expression suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "Xu Daqian, I want to spare you, but the people can't spare you, you have done a lot of evil over the years, and reduced so many innocent people to miners, who has no family, who has no wife and children, when you abuse them, you can think that you will have a day of retribution!" ”

Zhang Ke said, and with a wave of his hand, Qiao Fu and Yue Zixuan took more than a hundred captives to the city wall, and they trembled and lined up in two rows.

"Look up and see if there are any of your relatives in the city! Sue them, Xu Daqian is full of evil, if they can rise up and clean up this villain, the official can not blame the past, and can also reward them, if they are stubborn, they will all be punished as Xu Daqian's fellow party! ”

Zhang Ke's words made everyone stunned, and at this moment, a few miners understood, ran to the city excitedly, and shouted at the top of their voices: "Third brother (second brother), listen to Lord Zhang, kill Xu Daqian, and take revenge and make meritorious service!" ”

It would be easy to take the lead, and the captives and miners shouted one after another: "Lord Zhang treats people generously, we are not angry with Xu Daqian!" ”

When hundreds of people shouted this, all the people in the city were stunned, and then they thought about it. Xu Daqian also woke up suddenly, Zhang Ke, this kid is too ruthless, and he actually played a heart-to-heart battle!

Xu Daqian was so angry that he was trembling and at a loss. Suddenly, someone under the city shouted, "My lord, it's not good, the city gate has been opened!" ”
