Volume 2 I Will Pull the Heavens and the Earth 32 Trade Routes II.

Back in the city, the twilight was already dark.

Just in time for the return of the farmers who finished their work. The soldiers supervised them in two long processions, one for men and the other for women, and the dust that trampled on them, when the evening breeze blew, was gray and drifting everywhere. Although they did not dare to speak loudly, the twin cities had been recovered for a long time, and it was inevitable that there would be bold among them, whispering from time to time, and gathering together in a chaotic manner, hot and noisy.

Dunschelema stopped on one side and gave way to them and let them advance into town. Two quick-eyed centurions came over and asked him to go first, but he refused. He knew that he would not be able to gain the support and love of the natives just because he did not fight with the people, but it was better not to fight than to fight. Besides, isn't a person's image in the minds of others made up of the accumulation of details?

The procession of several thousand men walked slowly, and it was not until night fell that the gates of the city fell silent. The moon is clear and the lights are on. The city is full of smoke, fragrant and fragrant. Except for Luo Guoqi and Lu Qianxi, the two of them were guarding the city at night, and the others fought horses and returned to their own mansions.

Outside the gate of the mansion, Wu Henian, who had been waiting for a long time, did things quickly, and the gifts he prepared for Mrs. Wang had been properly prepared, so he took out the gift list and asked Deng She to watch it. Just gathered the torches of his own soldiers, and Deng She took a look. It's not bad, there are jewelry, there are special products, which are both valuable and valuable, and they are quite rich.

Thinking of something, Deng She said: "The mine is understaffed, and the iron mined cannot meet the needs. Thousands of households on the mainland will ask you to borrow some labor, so don't delay. "The thousand households in the mainland are Lu Qianwu. In order to distinguish, the army called him and his brother Lu Qianxi, one is a mainland thousand households, and the other is a small Lu thousand households.

Wu Henian said: "Yes." He was much more honest, he didn't dare to ask a word, paused, and said, "I heard that Mr. Yao went to find an adult in the afternoon?" With a face of self-reproach, he sincerely reviewed his mistakes, "It's all because the villain is not doing well, he listened to the letter late, he didn't have time to stop it, and he asked him to disturb the adult." ”

Deng She said: "It's none of your business. He complimented him a few words, "The gift is good, I am very satisfied." The matter of the officer's concubine should be done quickly, and a letter should be sent to the big female families and the children of the officials in the city, so that they could prepare as soon as possible. "When an officer marries a concubine, the original intention is to win over the place, Wu Henian is a good character, and he is a civil official, and he is the most suitable for the job of issuing a letter of appointment.

Wu Henian took over the order. Deng She no longer cared about him and slapped the horse into the house.

There's a reason he just said that the mines are understaffed. When he inspected the manufacture of firecrackers in the afternoon, it occurred to him that somehow he had come up with a mine. gave Lu Qianwu a rough description of the appearance and usefulness of the mine, and asked if he could make it. Lu Qianwu thought about it for a while and thought he could try it.

The amount of mining in the mines was not enough to meet the daily smelting and production of knives, guns and weapons, and even more so with the mine tests. Anyway, now that there are enough strong men, just summon more.

In the past, when eating, Mrs. Wang would accompany one side. Tonight, I didn't see her shadow. It's okay if I didn't see it, Deng She breathed a sigh of relief. Her actions last night, to be honest, were really embarrassing. When he really faced her again, Deng She really didn't know what to say.

Mrs. Wang looks handsome, comes from a wealthy family, has a natural nobility in her demeanor, and can dress up and decorate, and when she first meets, she is noble and can not be looked up; Even now, in front of Wen, Chen, and Hong, they are still high, and looking at you is like giving alms. But in private, he tactfully said "slave family", put down his body and serve people, that kind of fox charm, don't even need to say anything, his eyes are everywhere, everything will serve you comfortably.

You must know that Deng She has been in the army since he was a child, and he has never suffered any gentle battles, and now that he thinks about it, he has a special feeling in his heart. Ask yourself, was it too lazy to refuse her service at the time, or was there something subconsciously reluctant to enjoy? Deng She was startled, busy with his memories, and didn't dare to think about it again.

After eating in two bites, they pushed away the dishes and chopsticks, and Luo Guannu and Li Zhunu came to clean up.

He stood up and paced slowly, always feeling that someone was peeking at him. Turning around, Luo Guannu hurriedly lowered his eyes, pretending that the person who was peeking was not her, after all, she was young, pretending not to be, her hands were flustered, and she almost threw away the disk, which jingled. Probably afraid of attracting Deng She's attention, she quickly raised her head again and secretly glanced at Deng She.

Today and Yao Haogu had a trick, Deng She felt that he had won a big victory, he was in a good mood, he looked at Luo Guannu's cute appearance, and asked, "What?" Do I have flowers on my face? It's a pity that he really doesn't have the talent to joke, Luo Guannu's little face turned red, and he was at a loss, and said: "Daddy is a big hero, and there will be no flowers on his face." After thinking about it, he felt that saying this seemed to be a denial of Deng She's words, which didn't seem quite right, and he stammered and explained, "Only girls will grow flowers on their faces, like slaves,......" and pointed to Li Zhunu, "Like the maids, our faces will grow." ”

Instead, he made Deng She laugh and asked her, "Who told you that I am a big hero?" ”

"The slave's father."

As expected, Luo Lilang taught Luo Guannu to tie himself up. Dunshe smiled and stopped teasing her. Luo Guannu had something to do, he couldn't hide it in his heart, hesitated and hesitated, and finally got bold and asked, "Daddy, do you want to marry the slaves and maids to the generals?" ”

The decision in the morning, she knew in the evening. Except for what Luo Lilang told her, there was no one else. Deng She frowned, he was busy with military and civil affairs all day, he had never worried about the affairs of the palace, and he had never set any rules. There is Mrs. Wang's management, about the time of parting, she is in no mood, a little unrestrained, people outside the house can see the maid in the house, even if the relationship between father and daughter, it is not very like. To make a decision, you need to explain to the soldiers, and no one is allowed to contact the government unless there is anything special.

Luo Guan was only thirteen or fourteen years old, so there was no need to be angry with her, Deng She nodded and said, "I have this plan." It's not a matter of staying in the house all the time, and finding a good family for you is better than being a slave and a servant. ”

Seeing that Li Zhunu secretly pulled the corner of Luo Guannu's skirt, Deng She reacted quickly, and immediately guessed the reason why Luo Guannu asked about it. Sure enough, the little girl asked again: "The slave's father said that the father left the slave, will the father also leave the slave?" She was coquettish and sold Luo Lilang directly.

Changing the handmaid on the side to ask this, Deng She was already furious, how could the slave and maid ask about the military aircraft? I like Luo Guannu to be naΓ―ve and scheming, but he didn't get angry, and said, "Do you live as a slave?" He said to Li Zhunu, "I have chosen the best general for you." "Li Zhunu's appearance, the group of maids can be called the forefront, young, and Luo Guannu is an aunt, it is too wasteful to stay around, it is not worth it to give it to a person casually, Deng She plans to reward her to Zhao Guo.

Li Zhunu's face turned white, Luo Guannu was anxious, and said: "Daddy, Aunt Nunu's family, just one of her daughters, ......" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Deng She: "Luo Lilang taught you what you said, right?" ”

"Yes. The slave father said,......"

Deng She interrupted her again, called Bi Qianniu in, and ordered: "Go to Wu Henian and tell him to take care of his officials." If you are reluctant to give up your daughter, you will take it back; and they that have been sent into my house are my slaves and maidservants. But one cannot be two, and then there will be a next time, and the rod will be punished twenty. ”

Bi Qianniu shouted a promise and turned to go out.

Although Luo Guannu is bold, he is also a little girl's ignorance, not ignorant of fear, seeing Deng She's words, he is so scary. She knew that she had caused a big disaster, so she didn't dare to move, she stood there, her head bowed, her hands tugging on her skirt, pitifully waiting for punishment.

How could Deng She be as knowledgeable as a little girl, without Luo Lilang, she would never have come here. I didn't expect Luo Lilang to be so timid as a mouse, but he dared to quietly meddle in the military. Contacting Wu Henian's behavior, Deng She thought suspiciously: "Could it be that my subordinates are too lenient and not strict enough?" "Gotta change your wrist.

He used to be no taller than a centurion, and his subordinates were all old brothers who were thieves on horses, and if you want to say that you have no experience.

And pressed the head, Deng She asked Luo Guannu: "Luo Lilang is your father, but who are you?" ”

Luo Guannu thought for a while and said, "He is also the slave's father." ”

Deng She laughed and laughed, it was a little girl, he wanted her to know who her master was, but she replied to this. Since she understood it so well, she simply didn't correct it, and he said, "How can a person have two fathers? Remember, when you enter my house, I am your master, and you can only listen to me, no matter how close Luo Lilang is, he is also an outsider,β€”β€” if he says anything to you, you will answer him like this. Luo Guannu was silent, and Deng She asked, "Do you understand?" ”

Luo Guannu nodded reluctantly and said, "Understood." No matter how much she covered it up, it could be seen that she had emotions. The truth of being a slave and a slave, the master is the sky, everyone knows it. Deng She was inexplicable, and even more dissatisfied, as the lord of an army, he knew that there was no trivial matter, and the more people around him, the more strictly he had to control, and asked: "What do you understand?" ”

"Daddy is an outsider, and the master is the father of the slave." The little girl said aggrievedly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Go down. ”

Watching them go out, Dunsher shook his head. They are too young, they are usually pampered, they have never been in contact with people when they grow up in the golden house, they are like blank paper, they have a hard time talking, and they are thinking, do you want to change the two older ones?

With his hands in his hands, he paced to the window. As the night fasting approached, the noisy city gradually quieted down, and the rolling corners and cornices covered the dark shadows, adding to the summer night. A few stars are scattered in the deep blue sky, birds flying at night chirp crisply, a few wisps of warm wind are brought in, and a stream of people and the fragrance of wheat fields and grass outside the city are mixed together, blowing in the face.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, accompanied by the hula and crash of the armor's armor. The armor of the pro-soldiers is thin, there are not many pieces of armor, obviously the person who came is an officer of a thousand households, so late, who else is coming?

Deng She was about to turn around when he caught a glimpse of two or three figures on the corner of the street outside the building, as if going around the back door. Busy chasing to see, there were soldiers patrolling the night from afar, and the torches were bright, illuminating a large area, but they were no longer visible.

He vaguely remembered that there was a night more than a month ago, and this scene seemed to have happened as well. I can't help but wonder that the night will be banned, who will be outside? Outside the door, Bi Qianniu came in and said, "General, Tong Qianhu asks to see." - Deng She once explained to the guards at the gate of the house, Hong, Wen, Chen, Zhao, and Tong, who did not wait for the entrance, and invited them to come in.

"Come in, please." Deng She looked out of the window again, relieved, and while Tong Doulan didn't come in, he whispered to Bi Qianniu, "On the street outside the house, there are idlers wandering, as if they went to the back door, you lead a few people, go and check carefully." ”

Bi Qianniu was taken aback, he appointed himself as the captain of his brother's team, and the real power was quite Zuo Che'er's deputy, in order to take on the responsibility of protecting Deng She, he often asked Zuo Che'er for advice, not only practicing martial arts diligently, but also paying more attention to learning experience. Listening to what Deng She said, he knew that it was important and hurriedly went.

Hong Jixun's military discipline: the general's private room, soldiers are forbidden to enter. Tong Doulan took off her armor and sword outside the door, and entered the door. He rarely took the initiative to ask for a private meeting, Deng She was quite surprised, welcomed with a smile, and said: "Dare to be bored for a long night, General Tong has itchy hands, and wants to kill two more games of chess?" ”

He grew up as a Jurchen and did not read much, but he had a good taste and liked to play chess. He doesn't know how to play Go, he only plays chess. Deng She has a foundation and can play, and he has played a few times with him, but his chess skills are far inferior, and he has never won a game.

Tong Doulan said with a smile: "The general just returned from the battle, and he didn't have to rest. It's hard to play chess, and when the general is rested, I'll ask for advice again. While speaking, Deng She invited him to sit down, made tea with his own hands, and the weather was hot, and asked his own soldiers to go to the well to fetch the house of Liangzhen. The original She'er brought out from Yongping had already finished drinking, but this was from Tokugawa.

After a few words, I heard the city sergeant ring the gong, and in a temple in the corner, a bell rang, and at three o'clock, the night ban began.

Tong Doulan said: "I should have come last night, but the general was not allowed to have time." After several battles, I congratulated General Xi first. ”

"Why does General Tong need to see outside. I want to talk about it, General Wen gave me a meritorious service yesterday, and when he mentioned you, General Tong, I greatly appreciated it. The three scattered fine horses have really made great contributions. It's just that a new army has been recruited, and money and silver are nervous. It is inevitable that there will be no reward for merit, and I ask for the general's understanding. ”

Tong Doulan followed Wenhua to attack several cities, mobile guerrillas, intercept foreign aid, and block people in the city from running out, and made a lot of contributions. Deng She's words were polite, but in fact, the money he was rewarded with was already extraordinarily generous.

"What credit do I have, the main force of the siege is General Wen. The army was in the middle of a time when money was being used, and the general had rewarded too much, so he wanted to ask the general to take it back. Otherwise, I'm upset. ”

Deng She said: "General Tong is not arrogant, which makes me admire." "A slight groan, isn't he still too little? At the juncture of wooing and borrowing, a little money was useless, and he said with a smile, "However, dare the general only care about himself, but forget me?" ”

"What did the general say about this?"

"You don't want money, but you have a style; Isn't my reputation of merit and reward going to be in vain? "Giving money is also an art, making you feel that you are not collecting money for yourself, but for the sake of the other person. fell into the benefits again, became a good person again, and gained fame and fortune.

These routines, Deng She learned from Deng San,β€”β€” can sit firmly in the seat of the leader of the horse bandits, it is not enough to kill people and set fires, he said: "Therefore, not only will I not take it back, but I will also double it to the general." It is also good to set an example for the middle and bottom of our army. ”

He said it beautifully, Tong Doulan secretly gave a thumbs up, but still insisted: "I am a straightforward person, and I will not be polite." is really thinking like this, the general who has been in Shuangcheng for a long time, and the general who eats and uses it, what is the reward for some small work? ”

His attitude was resolute, Deng She couldn't eat accurately, and asked tentatively: "Even if the general doesn't want it, don't you think about it?" In this way, I will give it twice, not to the general, but only to the general's subordinates, how about it? ”

"There is food and drink in the army, and the hard days in the Suri tribe in my camp are useless if I have money." Suddenly mentioning that his tribe's life was hard, and the things that were unrelated to the wind and horses and cows were pulled together, Deng She vaguely guessed his intention, Tong Doulan paused, and then said: "General Fang Cai praised me for being high-spirited, and he was very ashamed. To tell you the truth, it wasn't me who first proposed to return the reward. ”

"Oh? Who is that? ”

"But it's the sons and daughters in my camp."

As soon as these words came out, Deng She guessed seven or eight points of his intention, and wanted to deal with it, but said, "But why?" ”

"The general doesn't know that my tribe is different from the Shengnuzhen, although they also fish and hunt, three meals a day, mostly from farming. The ground is scattered, the weather is cold, the land has no strength, often planting wheat grain, when there is a wind and snow, most of them freeze to death, and the life of the people is not easy. ”

His thoughts, Deng She cleared. A month ago, the Jiashan Jurchen came to vote, and there was a lot of land, and at that time he watched coldly and didn't mention it at all. At this time, it is nothing more than seeing that the red scarf is developing smoothly and vigorously, and it has a faint meaning of gaining a firm foothold.

Deng She said: "Although I have never been to Sansan, I often hear Mr. Hong talk about it. Indeed, the land is poor, and the people are suffering in such a way, that I have failed to do so. …… The generals are afraid that there are 10,000 people? ”

"More than thirteen thousand." Tong Doulan's tribe is the largest in the Sansan area, and it is very famous. The reason why the small Jurchen tribes in Jiashan and other places came in droves, Deng She's benefit was one, mainly because Tong Doulan took the lead in the early stage.

"Thirteen thousand?" There were too many people to settle in, and Deng She asked, "What are General Tong's plans?" ”

"If the general is willing, I am willing to exchange the general's reward for some land in the twin cities, and move some troops to come and have a full meal."

Deng She was overjoyed, but frowned, and said: "Most of the land in the twin cities has been divided, and there are hundreds of acres left to spare, which is not enough to resettle. ”

He welcomed Tong Doulan's people to come, but he didn't say that there were more than 10,000 people, only 3,000 came, and they couldn't all be placed in Shuangcheng. More than 2,000 people have migrated from the Jiashan Jurchens before and after, and once they form a group, it will be too dangerous. The so-called desire to harm others is indispensable, and the desire to prevent others is indispensable.

Deng She picked up the tea bowl, took two sips absentmindedly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's better to be like this, Dingzhou and Tokugawa are on the front line, and General Tong's troops can't be asked to brave the flames of war; Changjin, Sanshui Mansion and other places are barren and scattered, not to mention; However, Xichuan and Mengshan are far away from the front line, and they can be called rich, so they have been defeated, and there is a lot of undivided land, do you think it will work? ”

Xichuan and Mengshan are located on both sides of Ningyuan and Mengshan, with river boundaries in the north and mountains in the west and south. If you place it here, if you have something, you can recruit four helpers; Nothing happens, the road is easy to break, and there is no need to worry about change.

On the surface, the reason given by Deng She is very reasonable. Tong Doulan lowered his head and thought about it, he also knew that the land in the twin cities was useless, and after the division was over, he couldn't go and drive away the Jiashan Jurchens who moved in for him? Deng She is willing, he is still unwilling, not to mention provoking the enemy, it will also greatly damage his prestige. Blame whom? I can only blame him for looking ahead and backward and deciding to be late.

"Xichuan and Mengshan fields, how much can the general give me?"

"Ninety percent of the land in the two places is in my hands, and there are not many people in the city, although the results of the land division have not yet been obtained, it is expected that a lot can be left." Deng She glanced at him and said with a smile, "Even if the general moves the whole clan here, there will be no problem. ”

Eggs can't be packed in a basket, and the small tribes of Jiashan still know about countless migrations, let alone Tong Doulan? He said: "I am grateful for the general's good intentions. I have long wanted to move the whole clan here, but after all, the old people are afraid of it, and I am not easy to force it. If you want to come, it is better to move three or two thousand people first, live for the time being, show them the benefits, and not be afraid not to take the initiative to come. ”

His family has thousands of gold medals for generations, how can he not even have this prestige? Deng She didn't say anything, and nodded yes: "General Tong respects the elders and respects the elders, and he should be." So I sent a decree to Xichuan and Monsan, telling them to prepare the anointed fields for three thousand men. ”

"I am the whole clan, thank you for your kindness." Tong Doulan got up and bowed down. Deng She helped him up and laughed: "Since you have come to vote for me, your subordinates are your own family, and it is natural to seek some land for your family!" ”

Tong Doulan brought up the old words again and said: "The general's money and silver reward will be sent to the general tomorrow." ”

"My own family, what to talk about exchanging money for land. I will give it to it, and I will not take it. General Tong, you first saved my twin cities, and then helped me recover the Monshan lands, and your hard work is high, and you must be rewarded. There are rewards and punishments in the army, so don't embarrass me. ”

Tong Doulan insisted on not wanting to, and said: "My family knows my own affairs, I have some military exploits, and I am already very worried about being rewarded by the general." It is not worth the general's generous gift. ”

Deng She smiled: "That's the case, but with the general." Money and things outside the body, and the rest of the people, when you want to come, say a word in advance, and I will prepare it for you. ”

Through Deng She's mention of the credit for saving the twin cities, Tong Doulan said: "I still have a reluctant request." ”

"Whatever it is."

"We are scattered, the land is poor, and the iron is also lacking. Our tribe has also returned, and some of the other small tribes still use bone arrowheads. Scattered and barbaric, there are many fierce beasts, there are no iron arrows, and it is difficult to stand. If you can get some more iron from the general, the tribe will definitely be grateful to Dade. With that, he stared at Dun She.

Just because he didn't think iron was enough, he made this request, which was really reluctant. Deng She did not hesitate and said: "For trivial matters, I will write you a *, how much you want, and how many thousands of households in the mainland will give." ”

The red scarves expanded the armament war, and the iron smelting was too much to use, and Tong Doulan was clear. His request was a temporary thought, half the truth, half the temptation. Unexpectedly, Deng She agreed directly without thinking about it, put his heart at ease, bowed down again, and thanked him again and again. Deng She laughed it off, not taking it to heart.

After chatting for a while, there were two shifts and two o'clock outside the street, and Tong Doulan got up to say goodbye. No one is allowed to walk at night, and officers are no exception. In addition to writing to him to find Lu Qianwu to ask for iron*, Deng She took out the seal of ten thousand households, approved an official document that allowed him to travel at night on official business, and gave it to him and sent it out of the house, and then turned back.

He and Tong Doulan had a harmonious face, but in fact, in the conversation just now, they had quietly exchanged words with each other.

Deng She said, "Since you come to vote for me, you are your own family, and the land is also given, and the money is also rewarded", the implication is to test whether Tong Doulan has the intention of changing cooperation to refuge; Tong Doulan resolved it lightly and skillfully, and replied "My family knows my own affairs", which clearly showed her attitude, you are you, and I am me.

Deng She listened and understood, and then said, "In this case, follow the general, the money and the things outside the body, and the fields are enough for you", vaguely indicating that I respect your intentions, money is nothing, as long as you cooperate with me, I will not treat you badly.

Tong Doulan asked Deng She to "give some iron", not when he came, but after Deng She gave him Xichuan and Mengshan. Xichuan and Mengshan, he went with the army to fight, and Deng She's vigilance, he was completely aware of it, and it was reasonable.

But what if Dunsher wasn't on guard, but had other plans? He couldn't help but take precautions, so he knew that the red scarf lacked iron, so he wanted iron, and bluntly said that it was used to build arrowheads, and he watched Deng She's reaction.

Deng She didn't expect this festival at the beginning, but thought that he wanted iron because he had made two great achievements, pulling out the city with the army and saving the twin cities. After saving the twin cities, Deng She had a reward, guessing that he felt that it was not enough to be rewarded, so he made two requests in a row. By the way, he further expressed his position on cooperation, making a meritorious service, asking for a thing.

Turned back and went up to the attic, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became, before and after contacting, Huo Ran figured it out. Suddenly burst into a cold sweat, if he had the slightest hesitation at that time, which caused Tong Doulan's doubts, the consequences were really unimaginable.

The night breeze gradually cooled, and the tea on the desk was still hot. Deng She stayed for a long time, the head of a Jurchen tribe has such scheming, the heroes of the world, what kind of characters are they?

When he was called a hero in the world, he only knew one person, and he couldn't help but turn his thoughts to Guan Duo. and then from Guan Duo to Yao Haogu. Fighting for power, so far, he seems to have won for a while, but did Yao Haogu make a move? Absolutely. So, what's the start?

The joy of victory earlier is gone. He was restless, or it was late at night, so he had to call someone to find Hong Jixun immediately.

"General?"

Deng She looked up, and Bi Qianniu came in at some point. He replied, "The villain led a team of brothers, searched the nearby streets, and checked the mansion again, but there was no one to be found." A ten-man team was left behind to strengthen the security at the back door. ”

Deng She nodded and said, "Forget it if you don't find anyone." It's also dark, maybe I'm wrong. "His mind is full of Guan Duo and Yao Haogu, and the figures on the street are already trivial; Bi Qianniu had worked hard, and he couldn't help but comfort him, and said, "I remember, shouldn't you be on duty tonight?" ”

"Yes, it shouldn't be a villain."

"You've been with me for a day, so let's go and rest early."

Bi Qianniu retreated to leave. Deng She stopped him, picked up the two bottles of She'er Bei that were left on the case, and handed them over: "The weather is hot, it is easy to catch fire, drink more soup, you need to pay attention to your body." General Chen sent me the soup paste from Ningyuan, take it and share it with my brothers. He spoke casually, not condescendingly, but like a casual conversation between friends.

Bi Qianniu respectfully replied. Chen Hu, Zhao Guo, Zhang Ji'er and others, often have special products and supplements sent, Deng She basically does not use it, at most a little left, and the rest is given to the generals and soldiers in the city, and it is useless to excuse it, and it has almost become a common practice.

Bit by bit, the convergence of deep kindness, day by day, how to repay?

β€”β€”

1. Mines.

It existed in the Ming Dynasty and was widely used in warfare. The "Records of Armed Preparations" records the shapes and characteristics of more than 10 different types of mines, and draws a map of the structure of mines. It is mostly made of stone, pottery, and iron, buried in the ground, and uses ignition devices such as stepping hair, tripping hair, pulling hair, and igniting hair to kill and injure enemies.

In the early days, most of the mines were made of stone, also known as "stone bombing guns", which were simple in structure and convenient in materials, and were widely used in combat.

β€”β€”As soon as it is said, there is at the end of the yuan.

2. Chess.

Xiangqi is one of the traditional chess types in China, the origin of the theory is different, the chess system has many changes, and the modern chess system in the Southern Song Dynasty was basically finalized. There were bronze chess pieces unearthed in Dongshengzhou, divided into soldiers, elephants, horses, cannons, pawns, etc.

The Yuan Dynasty's anonymous song "[Double Tone] Intoxicated East Wind β€’ Yongxiang Chess": "Two strokes lined up, and the small soldiers guarded the trench. He attacked with horses there, set up Xiangyang cannons, and there were soldiers who came and went, and they were determined to defend the security machine, and they trapped a general. ”

Xiangqi flourished in the Yuan Dynasty, and the daily encyclopedia book "Shilin Guangji" at that time recorded the second game of Xiangqi and the first end game. This is the earliest known chess game with endgames and starts.

Influenced by China, the Korean people were also like chess, and their Chinese textbooks wrote that Korean merchants bought various goods from China and returned to China, including "ten pairs of chess and ten pairs of big chess". The "big chess" should be Go.

3. Decoction paste.

It is a kind of soup to boil medicinal herbs and spices into a paste, and to take it with boiling water. It can prevent diseases and nourishment, and is a method of dietary therapy.
