readx;? Zhao Jingyin saw that he was about to enter the royal capital, but Dali Honglu Temple did not send any accompanying envoys, Zhao Jingyin was puzzled, but he didn't expect to receive the news that caused a sensation in Dali!

Xiangguo Gao Taixiang killed the Mongolian envoys who persuaded him to surrender, and soon he personally led the troops to the north of Longshou Pass, swearing to resist the Mongolian iron cavalry to the death!

Although Zhao Jingyin knew that Yang Jing would definitely strike first when he was the vanguard, Yang Jing was not his peace faction, but a genuine main battle faction, and he also thought that he was mentally prepared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

But when he heard the news, he still couldn't help but feel worried, because the two countries were at war and did not kill the envoys, and killed the Mongolian envoys, Dali and Mongolia would no longer have room for maneuver, and he, the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty who came to mediate the war, the mission was completely declared a failure!

"Yang Jing is still too impulsive..."Zhao Jingyin thought so, so far, it is useless to say more, Zhao Jingyin passed the letter of state to the Dali court, and went to Xiangguo's mansion to visit Gao Taixiang.

It is said that he is more justified than Yang Jing, and before he was instructed by the imperial court, Gao Taixiang wanted to meet Zhao Jingyin, which was a bit unruly.

However, because Yang Jing killed Kuheer and other Mongolian envoys, Gao Taixiang no longer had any way out, no matter whether it was Yang Jing or Gao Taixiang who killed Kuheer, the envoys were destroyed in Dali, and the result was the same for the Mongols.

If Gao Taixiang puts all the blame on the head of Da Song, it is better to admit it himself, which will be more hardened and more able to boost the morale of the army.

Anyway, the big thing has been taken down, and now the Dali court dares to be angry with him, the prime minister, because he has broken with the Mongols, and he still has to rely on Gao Taixiang to fight, if Gao Taixiang is investigated, there will be no one to preside over the overall situation.

Gao Taixiang's strength has already overwhelmed Duan Wangye, it can be said that this time he has been pushed to the peak of the powerful ministers, and Duan Wangye has every reason to kill him because of this!

However, in front of the people of the country, Gao Taixiang was able to do this, which is also admirable.

Now that he has done such a big thing, Gao Taixiang does not plan to be afraid anymore, even if he lets Zhao Jingyin enter the Xiangguo Mansion.

At this time, it should be a celebration banquet, but unfortunately the banquet was covered with dark clouds, and the atmosphere was so solemn that everyone present was silent.

Gao Taixiang has decided to lead the troops to garrison Longshou Pass, and fight to the death with the Mongols, and the general Gao Tong, who was defeated earlier, has also gathered all the elite soldiers and strong generals in Dali, hoping to withstand the anger of the Mongols.

Yang Jing had already told Gao Taixiang the information that the Mongols were short of food and that Ogedai was dead, and that Guiyou was anxious to return to the northern imperial court to fight for power.

If it weren't for this information, he killed the Mongolian envoy at him, and Gao Taixiang would have to clean him up Yang Jing.

Gao Taixiang was also skeptical of such important information at first, but when Zhao Jingyin and Gao Hongyi, the county guard of Shicheng, arrived, and brought Aman and Gao Hechao over to confirm the authenticity of this information, Gao Taixiang was completely relieved.

He is the spiritual leader of the main battle faction in Dali, and he is the leader in power against the Mongolian iron cavalry, and most of the soldiers and horses of Dali are all in the hands of the Gao family.

At this time, Gao Taixiang also had reason to believe that as long as Dali could be supported, Guiyou's Mongolian army would definitely abandon Dali and choose to retreat!

However, by killing everyone in the Mongol legation, the Mongols' anger would turn into an endless offensive that would have to be met at great cost.

But it is undeniable that as long as it can survive this wave of revenge from the Mongols, Dali will be temporarily at peace, the Mongols will retreat, the people of Dali will survive, and Gao Taixiang will leave a name in history as a generation of famous ministers!

But it is not easy to resist the most angry attack of the Mongols, and if you are not careful, the Mongols will be in one go, and you will break through the dragon head pass, and Dali will be doomed, and even the conditions proposed by the Mongol envoys will not be there again!

At present, Gao Taixiang and others are worried about this question, how can they keep the Dragon Head Pass?

After being silent for a long time, Yang Jing said to Gao Taixiang: "I can't hide it, there was a civil strife in Juzhou in my dynasty earlier, and this official used firearms such as earth-shaking thunder to break through the city wall and recover Guizhou City.

"This official has heard that there are a lot of skilled craftsmen in Dali, the inheritance of the abyss, and the technology is extraordinary, if Xiangguo can gather all the craftsmen, rush to work overnight, and create a batch of firearms, if you want to defend the dragon head pass, it is not difficult..."

The study of firearms in the Great Song Dynasty has also been a long time, and Gao Taixiang, who is a minister and an admirer of the Song Dynasty, is not surprised by this.

"My craftsmen in Dali can also make some firearms, and the ability to smelt iron and copper in Dali is also very sufficient, but the problem is that these firearms are not on the table at all... Even if it is rushed out, it can't compare to the Mongols' return cannon..."

Yang Jing saw that Gao Taixiang did not refuse, but was worried that the power of the firearm was not enough, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Because when Lu Changan sent the earth-shaking thunder to Juzhou earlier, he also brought Du Kefeng over, and this time he also followed Zhao Jingyin to Xiangguo's mansion.

Du Kefeng was originally a highly regarded supervisor, and many important fortifications of Baling City and Jiangling Mansion came from his hands.

And he is proficient in firearms and guns, without Yang Jing's advice, he can develop a flintlock musket on his own, and with the creativity provided by Yang Jing, he has created a smokeless explosive that is more powerful than black powder!

Smokeless explosives need to use sulfuric acid, and the pyrite reserves in Dali are abundant, and the mining and smelting technology of craftsmen is also very mature.

This smokeless powder is the raw material of modern firearms and bullets, although it is more corrosive, but the power is not comparable to black powder!

Moreover, Yang Jing also informed Du Kefeng of the principles of some large iron cannons in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and even the Qing Dynasty, such as the Zhenwu General and the Red Cannon, so he believed that Du Kefeng would be able to convince Gao Taixiang!

"Xiangguo, as long as you can find enough manpower, let's say that the Mongols' return cannon is the thunder of the gods, and the officials are confident that they will fight it back!" Yang Jing's words were inevitably exaggerated.

But those who have been in contact with Yang Jing know that he never does things that he is not sure of, let alone open his mouth, Yang Jing dares to say this, he must have his confidence.

Seeing that Gao Taixiang was a little moved, Yang Jing nodded to Lu Changan, and Lu Changan, who was standing on the side, brought Du Kefeng in.

This Du Kefeng was originally involved in Yan Lichun's case, and he should be exiled for 3,000 miles according to the law, but Yang Jing cherished talents and used the relationship in Jiangling Mansion to redeem him and buy him back, so that he could make the best use of his talents.

Yang Jing also helped Du Kefeng quit drug addiction, which can be described as Du Kefeng's reborn parents, and Yang Jing's theory of artillery and firearms is like opening a heavenly gate for Du Kefeng, allowing him to see the fairyland and gods in the sky, just like taking Du Kefeng to appreciate a new world!

Du Kefeng is obsessed with craftsmanship, just like Ge Changgeng wants to see through this world, but anyone who pursues the ultimate realm, once they calm down, their efforts will be shocking, and the results of their research are even more amazing!

Now Yang Jing has given Du Kefeng another chance, so that he can mobilize countless manpower and material resources to turn many ideas in his heart into reality, which is an opportunity that a craftsman dreams of!

It is not so much that Yang Jing is letting him work, but that Yang Jing is really fulfilling his dream of Du Kefeng, or that Yang Jing is promoting the progress of craftsmanship in the entire era!

Once these explosives and artillery can be successfully tested, not only can they hold the Longshou Pass and let the Mongols retreat, but also promote these new firearms in the Great Song Dynasty.

This is equivalent to using the manpower and material resources of the entire Dali Kingdom to study firearms for the Great Song Dynasty and cast the Great Wall of Firearms for the Great Song Dynasty!

If this thing can really be done, not only will Gao Taixiang be famous in history, but he Du Kefeng will be able to leave a mark in the history books!

He is a guilty body, it was Yang Jing who gave him the opportunity to be reborn, and now this excellent opportunity is in front of him, whether he can go down in history, it depends on whether he can convince Gao Taixiang, and whether he can impress this Xiangguo, so that he can do his best to support Du Kefeng in the development of these firearms!

Du Kefeng saluted Gao Taixiang, then untied the wooden craftsman's box behind him, took out stacks of design drawings, and roughly talked about the general situation of the artillery he wanted to develop.

As for the formula of smokeless explosives, Yang Jing explained that he must keep it secret, of course, Yang Jing's formula written with special characters only taught Du Kefeng how to see and calculate, that is, it fell into the hands of others, and few people in this world can understand it.

Du Kefeng still remembers that when Yang Jing taught him, he once mentioned that the formula of this kind of design drawing, what is the equation, in short, it is also complicated and difficult, if Yang Jing had not explained, Du Kefeng would not have been able to understand it.

However, this equation also makes Du Kefeng feel very magical, this formula is like putting a weight on the other end of the scale, only need to put the same weight of material on the other end, to achieve balance, it is simple and accurate.

In order to persuade Gao Taixiang, Du Kefeng also went into simple terms, tried his best to be familiar and easy to understand, and even drew the approximate scale and prototype of the cannon with charcoal strips.

Although Gao Taixiang and the others didn't understand it very clearly, when they heard Du Kefeng describe the power of those explosives and artillery, they still felt that this supervisor was talking in his dreams, because what he was talking about was not artillery, but more like a divine thunder falling from the sky, and the tone of his speech was the same as Yang Jing's!

Du Kefeng also knew that his words were unfounded, and he couldn't convince the public after all, so after thinking about it, he asked Gao Taixiang and the others to move outside the courtyard.

He dug a small hole in the base of the wall, then put half a brick, took some gunpowder powder from the box, carefully placed it on the brick, covered it with a small tile, and pressed a brick on the small tile.

"Everybody stepped back. ”

Everyone was also a little puzzled when they saw such a strange move, but at this time, Du Kefeng handed over half a brick to Gao Taixiang.

"Lord Sangkoku, please aim at that brick and smash the brick in your hand against that brick. ”

Gao Taixiang knew that Du Kefeng was a strange person, and he couldn't hold it back in his heart, so he checked the bricks in his hand, looked at the bricks stacked at the base of the wall, and smashed it hard!

When his bricks hit the stacked bricks with pinpoint accuracy, something horrific happened!

The small pile of gunpowder exploded, the sound was earth-shattering, the smoke was filled, and a shock wave lifted everyone's hair, and the eardrums were so painful that they exploded a knee-high hole at the base of the wall!

They clearly saw that Du Kefeng only used a small spoonful of that yellow powder, and it had such a huge power, if it was really as Du Kefeng said, casting a huge iron cannon, and then filling it with a large amount of this yellow explosive, I am afraid that even the city wall can be easily blasted open!

With such terrifying explosives, if you refuse to defend the Dragon Head Pass and stop the Mongols, you will be fighting for hegemony in the world, and you will have confidence!

Not only Gao Taixiang, but even Zhao Jingyin and others were stunned, they all looked at Du Kefeng, and then at Yang Jing, as if they had seen an immortal descending to earth!
