Chapter 314: Reporting

In just a short period of time, the expression on Wan Bingyu's face changed several times, and Heng Xin couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Why is Madam so nervous, has Madam heard of this special soil?" ”

"I've heard it mentioned before."

Wan Bingyu settled down, twisted his brows and explained to Heng Xinyuan: "The object that this old man is talking about is actually not only a gadget, but also a terrible weapon that can kill people in war!" Husband, you know what kind of power firecrackers will have when they gather into a pile and light them, right? It's called a bomb, and it's so powerful that it can kill people instantly! ”

The old man next to him widened his eyes and looked at Wan Bingyu incredulously: "How could Madame know this name?" ”

It's an object that is rarely mentioned.

"There was a guy in Minzhen who used to make this thing, and it was called a bomb...... Later, he accidentally blew it up in town...... At that time, the residents who watched the excitement suffered heavy casualties, and it was precisely because of this tragedy that the special soil was regarded as a forbidden object, not only were the people not allowed to do it themselves, but they didn't even want to mention it at will, so this object was gradually forgotten by people, and it was only by chance that the old man learned about it......"

The events that caused heavy casualties must have been recorded in the county annals!

Because the old uncle's description was not detailed enough, Wan Bingyu and Heng Xinyuan decided to go to the county chronicles, and this translation really revealed a major event that is rarely mentioned.

It is said that more than 100 years ago, a young man used the soil of Minzhen to make a strange and extremely lethal weapon, and later he had a dispute with a family in the town, so he took the weapon to the door......

This detonation directly led to the complete destruction of most of the buildings in Minzhen, and countless casualties, at that time the prefect of Liangzhou was an official surnamed Li, he was afraid that this matter would affect his reputation and indirectly lead to the impact of his career, so he used strong means to block the news.

Looking at the records on the county annals, Heng Xinyuan's mood was extremely complicated.

"The wounded who were rescued from the rubble, even if they still had a life, were crippled for the rest of their lives, and the worst of them was even the one whose limbs were amputated...... Ma'am, is this weapon too cruel? ”

"The prefect surnamed Li probably thinks so too."

If it weren't for that, the bomb wouldn't have gone untouched for more than a hundred years.

"Husband, you've been on the battlefield, what do you think would happen if this weapon was put on the battlefield?"

Heng Xinyuan said: "It will definitely lead to a tragic situation of rivers of blood and corpses all over the field, but it is undeniable that this weapon will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the army, and if this special weapon can be equipped in the army, the army will simply ......be invincible."

Wouldn't such an object, which could even blow up a house, end the war in a short period of time if it were used to blow up the city gates?

Its cruelty means an increase in combat effectiveness.

"I understand why those Pingyu troops came to Liangzhou City in the form of mountain bandits, they must have heard about the power of this special weapon and began to be moved, so they sent people to Minzhen to inspect the situation, I don't know where they are now, if the bomb can really be restored by them and used on the battlefield, our country will ...... Anyway, the matter is very serious, and I have to send a message back to the capital now. ”

Heng Xinyuan said as he walked quickly in the direction of the study.

Seeing this, Wan Bingyu also quickened his pace and followed.

Because of their anxious mood, the two of them didn't look back when they were on their way, and happened to miss the staring eyes behind them.

An official quietly withdrew after they had left.

"Husband, I'm afraid that this letter of yours will not be able to be sent back to the capital?" Wan Bingyu said with a wry smile.

Heng Xinyuan didn't know that she was worried, before he tried a lot of hard work to control the army in Liangzhou City, the purpose was to let those of them in Liangzhou have a support, but now that the army has mastered, he found that he seemed to have fallen into someone else's trap, there were smooth cliffs in all directions, and the enemy was hidden in the shadows and never showed up!

This feeling made Heng Xinyuan feel a little uncomfortable.

"I know that those people must be watching us in the dark now, if we are going to send the letter back to the capital, then the messenger will be intercepted after leaving Liangzhou City, and the letter may not be sent at all."

"But madam, we have no other way now, now that Liangzhou City is in the hands of the army of Pingyuguo, then Xu Shi has already colluded with others, maybe one day we will join forces to rebel and overthrow the Liangzhou City government, how can I not write a letter to the capital?"

"The main concern in my heart is still on the body of the bomb, the lethality of that object is so strong, if I don't notify the court early and prepare early, then I am afraid that I will only be caught off guard by them in the future......"

Even if he knew that the letter could not be delivered, Heng Xinyuan had to take a one-ten-thousandth chance to get the letter to be sent to the capital.

Wan Bingyu took his hand and said with a gentle expression: "Husband, I don't mean not to let you write a letter back to the capital, I want you to send the letter to the capital in other ways." ”

"What's the solution?"

Wan Bingyu blinked, and deliberately betrayed Guan Zi and said, "Husband, do you remember the couple who came to our house to see Ah Wan a few days ago?" I chatted with them privately for a while, and learned that their livelihood was different from that of ordinary people, and that these two usually made a living from freight......"

As soon as she said this, Heng Xinyuan remembered.

A few days ago, a couple of mansions came to the small courtyard where they lived, and as soon as they entered the door, they said that they were looking for someone and wanted to find Awan, they claimed to be Awan's uncle and aunt, and Heng Xinyuan personally let them in.

"Madame mean, we can ask these two to help deliver the letter to the capital?"

"Yes, let the messenger send the letter to the capital, the husband can write the new things he has seen in Liangzhou City, and the letterhead sent to the capital by water is to write about the explosives, there are many people with brains in the court, as long as the husband briefly mentions the power of the bomb, they will definitely be able to understand what the husband wants to express."

Heng Xinyuan nodded, only feeling that his wife's words were very reasonable.

Maybe you can really use this method to send Xin'an to the capital.

In the afternoon of the same day, the two of them used the excuse that Awan was unwell and wanted to see her uncle and aunt, so they invited the couple to the house.

When they learned that they might be entrusted with a heavy task, the couple fell to their knees together: "My lord, this can't be done! We are not afraid that there will be danger to our lives in sending the letter to the capital, but we are afraid that we will not be able to do what the two of us told us. ”

At that time, Ah Wan was also beside her, and when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and said, "As long as you are careful, the letter will never be lost!" ”

"But we don't have any acquaintances in the capital, how can we deliver the letterhead to the imperial court?"
