Chapter 24 Zhao Yun intercepted the river to save the fight

This time, Liu Bei entered Sichuan and brought a few hundred catties of gunpowder "invented" by Zuo Cixin. After more than two years of practice, Zuo Ci has set the gunpowder formula at 80% saltpeter, 10% sulfur, and 10% charcoal. This is already very close to the recipe of modern black powder. Zuo Ci produced a few hundred catties and asked Liu Bei to take them to the battlefield in Yizhou to test their performance.

But Liu Hou is not satisfied with this result, he thinks that the ratio is still a little rough. So, he asked Zuo Ci to attack the last two decimal numbers on the basis of getting the last one decimal number.

To this end, he instructed Zuo Ci to make a balance so that he could accurately weigh various materials. The principle of the balance is not complicated, the key is to find a metal material that does not rust, is not easy to wear, and has sufficient hardness. To this end, Zuo Ci really put a lot of effort into it.

Fortunately, there are many blacksmiths among the helpers Liu Bei found, one of them is a sword who can build a sword, he got a piece of "dark iron", Liu Hou is estimated to be a meteorite, plus I don't know what material has been forged repeatedly, I don't know what alloy came out, and it is said that it can be cast and Zhao Yun's "Qinghong Sword" A level of sword.

After testing, Liu Hou felt that he barely met the requirements of making scales and weights, so he asked Zuo Ci to guide them to make balances. Thanks to this craftsman, otherwise, Liu Hou might have to fight Zhao Yun's idea of "Qinghong Sword".

With the balance, Zuo Ci invested in the research and development of more accurate gunpowder formulas. It wasn't until two years later that Zuo Ci determined the formula of 75% saltpeter, 10% sulfur, and 15% charcoal, which was almost the same as the formula of modern black powder.

Let's say that after Liu Bei entered Sichuan, during a siege, he suddenly remembered Zuo Ci's "magic weapon" because he couldn't attack it for a long time. So, according to the method of Zuo Cijiao, he sent people to sneak under the city wall at night, dug a big pit, and buried hundreds of catties of gunpowder. As a result, a little fire was fired, and a large gap was blown out of the city wall. Liu Bei marched forward in the panic of the enemy and took the city lightly.

After seeing the huge power of gunpowder, Liu Bei was ecstatic, with such an artifact in the future, what city could not be captured? So, Liu Bei sent people back to Jingzhou overnight to ask Zuo Ci to make more gunpowder.

In fact, Liu Bei thought simply, this time it was the enemy's negligence, and he didn't guard against someone digging the root of the wall at night. If you had prepared in advance, it would have made it so easy for Liu Bei's people to dig a big pit under the city wall.

However, Zuo Ci's research on precise formulas was interrupted. He instructed the helpers Liu Bei found to produce gunpowder with all their might. Of course, these production personnel were put under military control at his request. Liu Bei naturally welcomed this, and specially told Zhao Yun to personally grasp this matter, and implemented strict control measures for all personnel who came into contact with gunpowder to prevent the leakage of secrets.

And Liu Hou, although he defends day and night, he is a thief who is difficult to prevent, and he was inevitably hijacked by Sun Shangxiang. One day, Liu Hou was suddenly taken out of the backyard by several female soldiers.

In Liu Hou's original plan, as soon as he found out that Sun Shangxiang had a move to leave, he immediately launched a verbal offensive. Liu Hou is not a discerning person, but he has been thinking about it in his mind for 2 years, and has prepared a set of rhetoric to impress Sun Shangxiang.

Of course, if the three-inch tongue plan fails, he also prepares plan B. Plan B is a threat of force, and she can't be allowed to take herself away anyway.

However, what he didn't expect was that the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and Sun Shangxiang didn't give him a chance to implement plans A and B at all, and directly ordered the female soldiers to forcibly take him away. He couldn't even see her face, and his tongue was rotting in his mouth.

Before leaving the backyard, Liu Houyang begged one of the female soldiers to go to his room and pick up the package that was placed at the bedside. Liu Hou had been waiting for this day for a long time, so he had already prepared a package with his ultimate weapon inside.

It wasn't until he got on the boat that Liu Hou saw Sun Shangxiang in the cabin. However, it was already too late, the boat had already started, and Liu Hou watched history still move in its original direction, sighing at the unstoppable momentum of the long river of history.

"Why did you take me away, don't you know that I will end up miserable when I go back with you?" As soon as Liu Hou entered the cabin, he angrily questioned Sun Shangxiang. Liu Hou is now more than 4 years old and almost 5 years old, and he is more than 6 years old, and he looks like a little adult when he talks.

"My mother is seriously ill, and I am anxious to go back to see her." Sun Shangxiang had tears in her eyes, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief from time to time. Liu Hou found that her eyes were red and swollen, and she was obviously crying all the way.

Liu Hou looked at her pitiful appearance, and the fire couldn't be released. turned to comfort: "There is nothing at all, your mother is not sick, Sun Quan tricked you to go back." ”

"How do you know?" Sun Shangxiang held back her tears and asked with a look of surprise. Liu Houzhi got up, I can't tell him that I read what is written in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Don't lie to me." Sun Shangxiang looked at Liu Houzhiwu, wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and looked like he was about to cry again. Liu Hou had seen this usually fiery and grueling female demon king, Miss Sun, crying and crying. He rolled his eyes, and planned to launch the super shield that has been tried and tested in the past few years - Zuo Ci.

"It was Master Zuo who said it. He looked at the heavens last night and calculated what was happening today. He said that you must take me back to Soochow today, because Sun Quan wanted to attack Jingzhou and was afraid of hurting you, so he tricked you into going back under the pretext that your mother was sick. ”

"Really? Little Adou, you didn't lie to me, did you? When Sun Shangxiang heard that it was Zuo Ci, the first god stick, he immediately believed it, stopped crying, and took Liu Hou's little hand and asked eagerly.

"Of course it's true, Master Zuo still lies? He also told me not to be afraid, my Uncle Zhao and Uncle Zhang will come to me. In order to enhance the persuasiveness, Liu Hou threw a bombshell.

Now Sun Shangxiang was a little puzzled again, when she left, she listened to the words of Zhou Shan, the messenger sent by Sun Quan, and did not sue Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, let alone Zhuge Liang, how could someone come to save Adou?

In fact, she didn't know that Liu Hou still had a plan C. Liu Hou had asked Xiaohong and Xiaocui to pay close attention to their whereabouts every day 2 years ago, and once they found out that Mrs. Sun was going to take them away, they would immediately notify Zhao Yun or Zhang Fei. And said that it was Zuo Ci who calculated that Mrs. Sun would take her back to Soochow, which would be unfavorable to herself.

Although Liu Hou knew that according to the normal trend of history, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei would also come to save him, but he was afraid that there would be an accident in history, and he wanted them to come quickly, so he had long confessed to the two of them.

Pity the two little girls, when they heard that Mrs. Sun would be unfavorable to the little master, they were highly nervous, and they took turns on duty 24 hours a day to keep an eye on Liu Hou. The two of them are loyal and conscientious, always keeping an eye on Liu Hou's whereabouts in the light or in the dark, and they have never stopped for 2 years. Now seeing that Liu Hou was really taken away, he ran to inform Zhao Yun as soon as possible.

"Little Adou, are you coaxing me, there are people there ......" Before Sun Shangxiang's words were finished, he heard someone on the shore shouting: "Let's leave the boat, let me go with my wife." Sun Shangxiang listened carefully and recognized that it was indeed Zhao Yun's voice. I couldn't help but feel relieved, and I thought, sure enough, I told Adou that Zhao Yun came to save him, so what he said about my mother not being sick is also true?

However, now the situation is no longer something she can control. I saw Zhou Shan's hand holding Changge, and shouted: "Who are you, dare to block the master's mother!" He ordered the sergeants to sail together, and each of the military weapons was taken out and placed on the boat. The wind is smooth and the water is fast, and the boats go with the current. Zhao Yun hurriedly shouted along the river: "Let Mrs. go." There is only one word of prayer. Zhou Shan ignored it, and only urged the ship to move quickly.

The conversation on board continued. I only heard Liu Hou say: "Sister Xiang, if you take me back, my situation will become very miserable, don't you know that I will be a hostage?" Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, which was despised by the world, and you are now also coercing me to order Liu Bei. You say, what's the difference between you and Cao Cao? Liu Hou saw that things were like this anyway, so he could only wait for Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei to be rescued according to the original history, so he was also a lot calmer.

Sun Shangxiang was not surprised at all when this little hairy boy said these adult words. She has been with Liu Hou for more than 2 years, and she has seen all kinds of miracles in him, and she is already strange.

"How come, I just want to take you back to meet your mother, you see, I've been married for so many years, and my mother hasn't seen you yet, so you should go and meet her. Also, how can you compare me with Cao Cao's thief, huh. ”

"Of course, it's no problem to go to see Mrs. Guotai, the problem is that Sun Quan will inevitably harm me, at the very least, he will also let my father exchange Jingzhou for me. Although I know that you and my father may not have a good relationship, since you are married to my father, you should not do anything to harm your husband and his children. Let's talk about three from four virtues. ”

"He's your uncle, how could he harm you, you kid, don't talk nonsense."

"He's not my uncle, and I'm not his nephew, so we're not related by blood." Liu Hou interrupted her.

"How can you talk like that, see if I don't spank your ass." Sun Shangxiang feigned anger.

"Hmph, Sun Quan, Cao Cao, and my father, your husband, Liu Xuande, are all heroes in the world. What are these so-called heroes? They are all the lords of the six relatives who do not recognize them, and family affection is not as important as a city in their eyes. The happiness of her biological sister is not as important as the short relationship between the two parties, and not as important as Jingzhou City. ”

"You, you, what do you mean." Sun Shangxiang's face turned pale, and it was obvious that Liu Hou had poked her sore spot.

"Don't you know what you mean? Back then, my good uncle, your good second brother, did not hesitate to marry his own sister to my father in order to unite with my father to fight against Cao. Marry it, just get married, he tried to harm my father again and again, and tried to seize Jingzhou again and again. What will happen to you if he kills my father? Hasn't he thought about your feelings? Did he care about your happiness? ”

"You're talking nonsense, it's not like that."

"This time, it's the same, in order to seize Jingzhou, he actually lied to you that your mother was sick, and the purpose was to use your hand to kidnap me back, so that I could be a hostage, and threaten my father to replace Jingzhou. Has he ever thought about how you will behave after this incident? Do you have happiness in the rest of your life? In his mind, you are not a sister at all, but a tool, a tool to help him seize Jingzhou, as for whether this tool was broken or rotten afterwards, did he care? ”

"Don't say it." Sun Shang was so angry that he slapped the tea cup on the desk, and the tea cup on the desk jumped up, and the tea spilled out. I saw that her shoulders were shrugged, her face was flushed, her breathing was heavy, her fists were clenched so tightly that her fingers were white, and her silver teeth creaked, and she was obviously furious.
