Chapter 267: Flint
He didn't stand at the bottom of the city for a long time, shouting for the city guards to open the door.
The gatekeeper came down from the castle tower in a short time, and the soldier obviously didn't recognize it for a long time, so he stepped forward and said, "I've seen the prefect." ”
He didn't help someone for a long time, and said with a smile: "It's all acquaintances, why be so polite." ”
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then the soldier asked, "What is this going on, my lord?" Why are you going out of the city? ”
"It's not like I'm going out of town." Chi Wei waved his hand, "It's my wife who wants to go back to her parents' house, and my father-in-law is sick." He is such a daughter in his old man's family, and he has to look at his heart to be sure. ”
After that, he raised his hand to lift the curtain of the car in front: "Do you want to check?" ”
This frame is the female dependent's sitting, this soldier didn't dare to make a time, he didn't have the courage to look at the jade face of the prefect's wife, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, just take a look at the servant's frame." ”
There were many people behind, and the soldiers had checked one by one in the past, and they were indeed all servants, and there were some small servants and the like, but they did not find anything suspicious.
The group that followed around had knives on them, but all of them could get the paperwork of the dart, so there was no problem at all.
After the soldier had finished checking as usual, he rushed to let the convoy out.
After watching the convoy go out of sight, he turned around and went back to the city.
After leaving the city, the carriage in which the "female dependent" was sitting lifted the curtain, revealing a face inside, and said with a smile: "It scared me." ”
This person is Tan Huaijue, and the people who are following in this convoy are not some servants, but the people who have not been moved for a long time and gather together to follow Tan Huaiyu to Beijing to sue the emperor!
Tan Huaiyu was afraid of being infected and delaying things in those days, so he drank medicine more diligently than eating, locked himself up for several days, and found that there was no major problem, so he was relieved to lead the people back to Beijing to sue the emperor.
The young man with a knife in the back walked to Tan Huaiyu's car window, held the knife and arched his hand at him: "Scholar Tan." ”
"Master Xiao is hard." Tan Huaiyu nodded and smiled at the person, "This way depends on Master Xiao." ”
Xiao Wan used to be called Huazi, Qiu Ba, and now he is a person in the rivers and lakes, he was embarrassed when he saw that people were polite to him, and waved his hand again and again: "It's not hard, it's not hard, we rely on Scholar Tan and Chen Ge to have something to eat and stand upright." Besides, the queen mother has kindness to me, and Scholar Tan is a friend of the queen's brother, and he is also our mother's family, so we should do this. ”
Xiao Wan and Occult Sun are now relying on the new school, so they naturally have to be respectful to Tan Huaijue, and they are Yu Zhiwei's angry people, so they don't dare to be careless.
Xiao Wan walked beside Tan Huaiyu's car with a knife, he was born strong, although he was not as tall as Yu Jingning, but he could also be called burly.
Tan Huaiyu looked at this kid and asked with a lot of mouth: "How old is Master Xiao this year?" ”
"It's almost seventeen." Xiao Wan shook his head, "Many people think that we have no hair on our mouths and are not good at work, if it weren't for you adults to rely on, I'm afraid that life would be difficult." ”
Xiao Wan walked the dart, but at the same time he was also working in the new military factory, Xiao Wan took the nearly 1,000 people who accepted Zhao'an into the factory, and recently the approval of the imperial court has also come down, and they don't have to secretly use the dart game to cover up their identity.
It can be regarded as a dart to run a factory.
"Seventeen isn't small." Tan Huaiyu had a gentle smile on his face, "When I was seventeen years old, I was still helping errands in Dali Temple, and I had to listen to those bearded people above for everything. It would be nice to wait for two years. ”
Xiao Wan hurriedly said yes.
Tan Huaiyu took advantage of this opportunity to inquire about the progress of the military factory again: "By the way, I don't know how the factory is during this time?" ”
Xiao Wan replied truthfully: "There are probably some problems with the drawings of the first round of Che Shenjiang, and the batch of firecrackers was scrapped a lot, and then he changed it many times, and this was done." Say yes...... What is the name of the three-eyed eye gun and the bird gun in one...... Thunderbolt. There is also a large fire gun, called the Eagle Flying Gun. ”
Tan Huaiyu didn't know much about firecrackers, so he just nodded, thinking about what he meant by asking Yu Jingning when the time came.
Xiao Wan seemed to say the excitement, so he continued to chatter: "These firecrackers are the same as the ones we used before, they are all arquebuses. It wasn't the time when the sun was still good in the Thirteen Harbors before, and a batch of flint guns were imported from the Westerners, and the Che Shen General was studying it, and we would see if we could make some too. ”
As he spoke, Xiao Wan removed the firearm he was carrying on his back: "Look, scholar." ”
Tan Huaiyu raised his eyes to look over, Xiao Wan specially turned the fire gun pipe over, and saw the words "made by the great name" on it.
Originally, Daheng's fire gun, there was only "made by the Ministry of Industry" at the bottom, and this was the first time the name was engraved on it. This is the first batch of "official-supervised-business-run" military factories under the new faction, and the site is in the Naoli Daimyo's Mansion.
Tan Huaiyu reached out and touched the three words, feeling that his eyes were wet.
"This is the first batch." Xiao Wan said, "General Che said, prepare it for us first, and try to use it." Actually, I haven't used it until now, except for bird hunting. ”
He scratched his head, as if he felt that he had said the wrong thing: "But this time, it's better not to use it." ”
Only the regular army of Daheng is equipped with firearms, and if it is really the bandits who meet the two jujubes on the road, they really can't use these things. But if they can really run into the regular army, it means that their whereabouts are exposed, and Yu Jingning, who is in Jinan Mansion, must be the first to bear the brunt, much more dangerous than them.
Of course, Tan Huaiyu knew these truths, but seeing that Xiao Wan was excited when he said the fire gun, he didn't mean to blame, so he asked him to put the fire gun away.
Xiao Wan was putting the fire gun on his back, when he heard Tan Huaiyu say: "When I was studying, I kept thinking that we had never come from the Heavenly Dynasty, but since the sea was opened, I realized that everyone was competing for the Heavenly Dynasty. Daheng has always emphasized literature over martial arts, I have been thinking, if you really don't give the generals a chance to breathe, if one day, the tiger and wolf outside enter the house, we, the scholars who hold pens all day long, will really scold those people out of the house? ”
Xiao Wan has been in the military camp all the year round and has never stayed with a civilian official, and when he speaks like this, he can't help but prick up his ears and listen carefully.
"Swords and guns must be available, and iron horses and firearms are indispensable." Tan Huaiyu raised his head, like when he was a teenager when he made a strategy, his eyes were full of stars, "It's not that we want to demonstrate to others, it's that we must have the courage to make people dare not come to bully us." The name of the Celestial Empire is a false name, and it is not an argument, and it is the real work to protect the territory and the people. ”
