"I'm not qualified?"

Li Dingguo was almost laughed at, he is the military commander of this unit, that is to say, he is the supreme commander of this unit, and he is also the existence with the greatest authority in this unit, theoretically speaking, there is nothing he can't check in this unit, but he didn't expect to run into a hard stubble this time, and he really didn't let him check it.

Li Dingguo was angry, and the guy with glasses and an old-fashioned face said: "That's right, you are a military system, I am a military industrial system, we are two different systems, and there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates, and secondly, I am the chief of the second scientific research section of the military factory, according to the military rank, I am at the deputy brigade level, and you are only at the regimental level, so you can't order me, therefore, you are not qualified to see phosphorus bombs." ”

Li Dingguo was angry, staring at the guy with glasses in front of him and getting angry, at this moment he hated to lift up the so-called head of the second scientific research section in front of him and throw it into the trash can on the side, it was too annoying.

However, Wang Jiadong stopped on the side and said: "Dissipate gas, dissipate gas, I have inquired about this guy, and the primer equipment of the iron cast steel cannon we are using now is what he studied." ”

Li Dingguo is a little muddy, but he admires people who are really capable, and his patience is also very high.

Sure enough, after listening to Wang Jiadong's persuasion, Li Dingguo couldn't help but not throw this guy into the trash, but this guy was so old-fashioned and didn't give him Li Dingguo's face, Li Dingguo felt that his authority was threatened.

The authority of the chief officer of an army is inviolable, if a military commander does not count, then the army is over, just like the Ming Dynasty's military supervision system, the military chief of the army has to listen to the eunuchs, this is the dog, if the eunuch understands the military, he himself is in command as a general, these eunuchs don't understand anything, but because they have the trust of the emperor, they can point fingers at the military commander.

Not to mention anything else, it is that a capable person like Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Xuanda, is not suppressed by the great eunuch Gao Qiqian, and there is no way to do it, and even gunpowder needs to be raised by himself to buy it in Lantian, which has to be said to be a kind of sadness.

When Li Dingguo didn't know how to end the game, at this moment Li Chaosheng came over and said with a smile: "Lao Wang, if we want to see Captain Li, you can show him, why bother to dismiss people's face?" ”

When Li Dingguo heard this, he turned around and saw Li Chaosheng, saluted a Lantian military salute and said, "County honor." ”

Li Chaosheng said with a smile: "Today, when you go out, I will come to practice it for you." ”

Li Dingguo heard this and said, "Thank you county." ”

Li Chaosheng turned his head to look at Wang Dao, the section elder of the second research section of the military factory, and said, "Old Wang, if Commander Li wants to see the phosphorus bomb, you can show him." ”

Lao Wang's face was still very old-fashioned when he heard this, and he didn't smile when he looked at Li Chaosheng and said: "According to the secrecy regulations of the military factory, if Commander Li wants to check the phosphorus bomb, he must have the consent of the county honor, otherwise he can't see it even if Commander Li is the division commander." ”

Li Chaosheng heard this and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I now agree with Regiment Commander Li to take a look at the phosphorus fire bomb." ”

"Yes."

Section Chief Wang answered, followed by the carriage and said, "Spread out." ”

Lao Wang gave an order, followed by the surrounding scientific researchers, as if facing a great enemy, and immediately dodged a way, at this time, Section Chief Wang took out a pair of thick cotton gloves from his pocket and said, "Come." ”

Li Dingguo saw that Section Chief Wang was so serious, his expression couldn't help but become serious, he turned his head to look at Li Chaosheng, Li Chaosheng made a gesture of invitation, Li Dingguo came to the carriage, this close to the carriage, suddenly a cold, Li Dingguo was startled, and then opened the carriage curtain, inside the curtain was a white box, Section Chief Wang opened the box, only to see that the box was actually an ice lump, and a cannonball was placed in the ice. ”

"This is a phosphorus bomb?"

Li Dingguo wanted to touch it with his hands, but was stopped by Section Chief Wang.

"This thing burns when it gets hot, and it can't be extinguished, so try not to touch it with your bare hands."

"So powerful?"

Li Dingguo was skeptical when he heard this, and Section Chief Wang said: "I'll know when I'm on the battlefield." ”

Li Dingguo looked at Section Chief Wang suspiciously, and finally nodded: "Does this cannonball always need to be stored in ice?" ”

Section Chief Wang nodded and said, "The temperature of this shell should be controlled, and if the temperature reaches normal temperature, it will easily explode." ”

"What if the ice melts on the way?"

Section Chief Wang pointed to these white boxes and said: "These boxes are all insulation materials sent by the county, called foam boxes, which have a good thermal insulation effect, and the ice cubes will not melt in it for five or six days. ”

Li Dingguo listened to these and said: "My good man, this cannonball is simply more expensive than the big girl, it is so troublesome to transport, if the power is average, it will be a big loss." ”

Li Chaosheng heard this and said: "Don't worry, the power of this cannonball will definitely not disappoint you, and it will even be far beyond your expectations." ”

Li Dingguo looked at Li Chaosheng suspiciously, he was not a descendant of Lantian, and he didn't know that Li Chaosheng's words were all lost.

Li Chaosheng once again encouraged a few words, and told Li Dingguo to protect this scientific research team, Li Dingguo agreed, knowing that this kind of craftsman who can make artillery is definitely a treasure among the treasures of a force.

The troops were pulled out, Li Chaosheng stood in the Daogouyu camp to see them off, looking at the expeditionary army Li Chaosheng still had some emotion, Li Chaosheng actually liked to go out to fight, but as the respect of a county, he no longer had the opportunity to lead an army to fight the enemy on the battlefield.

Compared with the gains and losses of one city and one place, Li Chaosheng's safety is the most important thing in the entire Lantian people, in the words of the Lantian people, losing a few cities, or losing some money, is a disease of scabies for Lantian, but the county is about to die, no one can provoke the banner of Lantian, which is also what everyone often says that a gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall.

The entire political system of Lantian is currently revolving around Li Chaosheng, if Li Chaosheng has an accident, whether it is the respected Li Chaolong or the Li Chaohu who stands alone, they will not be able to gain the support of everyone in Lantian, so as to replace Li Chaosheng as the county honor.

Therefore, Li Chaosheng's status in Lantian is irreplaceable, Li Chaosheng's safety is the most important thing in Lantian, if you can choose, the people of Lantian can even give up the Lantian foundation, they believe that as long as the county is respected, they can build a paradise that is equally good or even better than the current Lantian even from scratch.

This is the idea that all the high-level leaders of Lantian have agreed on, and the safety of the county is above all else.

Li Chaosheng looked at the army enviously, turned around for a long time and said: "Okay, go back, Lu Xiangsheng's envoy is almost here." ”

Gu Zi heard this and said, "Well, I just said that I have entered Lantian City. ”

Li Chaosheng nodded when he heard this, and then followed Gu Zi and the guards back to the city.

Seeing Lu Xiangsheng's envoy is close to noon, Lu Xiangsheng's envoy is still the housekeeper named Lu Fu in the Lu family, the old housekeeper looks much older than the last time in this meeting, it seems that the death of Lu Xiangsheng's old father is still quite a big blow to the Lu family.

"Lu Fu has seen the county honor."

The old housekeeper entered the house and greeted Li Chaosheng very politely, Li Chaosheng looked at Lu Fu with a smile and said, "Lu Fu, we haven't seen each other for a long time, by the way, is your master okay?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Fu nodded and said, "Returning to the county honor, it's okay, it's just that the old man's death has hit the old man very hard." ”

Li Chaosheng sighed when he heard this: "The deceased is gone, and your master should also look at it, by the way, what did your master send you to Lantian for?" ”

Lu Fu heard this and said: "Returning to the county honor, today the imperial court is eight hundred miles urgent, and I will issue a holy decree to my lord, take affection from my lord, restore the governor of Xuanda, and increase the military department to let our lord immediately lead troops to block the collapse of the Qing soldiers going south, and not allow the Qing soldiers to continue to go south, and lead the army that came to King Qin." ”

"Oh, that's a good thing, congratulations to your master."

Li Chaosheng said, Lu Fu heard this and said: "Thank you County Zun, but I didn't come today to report the good news to the County Zun, but my lord said that he had bought some firearms here in the county Zun, and hoped that the county Zun could ship them as soon as possible, and my lord was waiting for this batch of firearms to kill the Tartars." ”

Lu Fu looked at Li Chaosheng and said, Li Chaosheng looked at Lu Fu and said with a smile: "Hahaha, it turns out that this is the case, well, don't worry, you can tell your master when you go back, I have shipped this batch of firearms to Henan, as long as he arrives in Henan to take them out." ”

"Henan?"

Lu Fu's eyes widened when he heard this: "So fast? ”

Li Chaosheng said with a smile: "When Jiannu captured Gaoyang City, I sent someone to transport this batch of firearms out, thinking that your family could use it, after all, Sun Chengzong was killed in battle, and there are not many people who can use it in the Ming Dynasty, and it is your lord's turn, so I made a little advance, I didn't think that your lord would be promoted so soon, isn't this just right." ”

Hearing this, Lu Fu hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The county lord really has no last resort, and the old servant admires it." ”

Li Chaosheng waved his hand and said: "Okay, it's not the first time we've met, don't say more polite words, you can go back to your lord now, the specific pick-up location, Gu Zi will tell you later." ”

Gu Zi smiled at Lu Fu when he heard this, and Lu Fu hurriedly arched his hand when he heard this: "There is Brother Lao Guzi." ”

Gu Zi smiled: "You're welcome, kill the Tartars, we all support it." ”

After saying this, Li Chaosheng said: "Oh, by the way, tell your master, this time, I have three more layers of goods than before, and we don't earn the money for killing Tartars." ”

"The county is noble and righteous."

Lu Fu immediately gave up his hand, Li Chaosheng looked at Lu Fu and said: "Also, tell your master, Da Ming can't do it, and Lantian, don't think about it, do something stupid and die with the Tartars, as long as you live there is hope, you can kill the Tartars." ”

Hearing this, Lu Fu arched his hand and said, "Yes." ”

Lu Fu turned around and left, Gu Zi went out to explain the details of the pick-up, Li Chaosheng sighed, in history, Lu Xiangsheng died with the Tartars in the battle here, of course, the main reason for this is Yang Sichang, Gao Qiqian made a hindrance, did not give rescue, and the guns and ammunition were not all, and in the end Lu Xiangsheng could only kill himself.

This time, he has the weapon support of Lantian, and he doesn't know if he can get rid of his historical fate.

Li Chaocheng sighed, some things can only be done to obey the destiny of heaven, and the fate of history is still very strong, such as this time Lu Xiang was promoted to the secretary of the military department, in charge of all the troops who entered the king of Beijing.

Originally, with such authority, Lu Xiangsheng would definitely be able to make great achievements, but the suspicious Emperor Chongzhen in the court played the way of checks and balances at this time, in order to balance Lu Xiangsheng's rights, and at the same time sent Yang Sichang and Gao Qiqian to Lu Xiangsheng to lead the two armies and serve Lu Xiangsheng as his deputy.

said that he was a deputy, but in fact, it was more important to spy on Lu Xiangsheng, after all, if Chongzhen really wanted to send a deputy to Lu Xiangsheng, who could not send it, he had to send Lu Xiangsheng's two enemies.

Although Gao Qiqian and Lu Xiangsheng did not tear their faces, when Lu Xiangsheng was the governor of Xuanda, Gao Qiqian gave Lu Xiangsheng eye medicine, the most obvious of which was to deduct Lu Xiangsheng's gunpowder, which caused Lu Xiangsheng to have no gunpowder available, and finally ran to Li Chaosheng to buy gunpowder.

As for Yang Sichang, this is already a tearing of the skin, the two people have proper political disagreements, Yang Sichang has slandered Lu Xiangsheng in front of Chongzhen more than once, if it weren't for Sun Chengzong's unfortunate martyrdom this time, Lu Xiangsheng's recovery would have no hope at all.

Now send these two to the front line to Lu Xiangsheng as deputies, and they can each lead an army, which has to be said that Chongzhen's hand is very sassy, this is for fear that Lu Xiangsheng will be able to integrate the Qinwang troops and wipe out the Tartars in the Central Plains.

The Qinwang troops were originally the general soldiers of various places, and the thoughts of these general soldiers were very heavy, their thoughts were different, and the parties of the imperial court where they ended up were also different.

Originally, Lu Xiangsheng's prestige in the army with his military exploits and prestige in the army was likely to twist these people into a rope, so it must be a huge threat to the Tartars.

Of course, the premise of this is that Lu Xiangsheng is a dominant force, and there is no military and political force that can compete with Lu Xiangsheng, interfering with Lu Xiangsheng.

As a result, now Yang Sichang, Gao Qiqian, a former military secretary of the imperial court cabinet, and a great eunuch trusted by the emperor, the political prestige of these two people is enough to compete with Lu Xiangsheng.

Then they came to the front line again and stirred up, and the general troops of various places, which could have been twisted into a rope, were now directly divided into three forces.

Everyone knows a very simple truth, that is, the three strands of strength twisted together to hit people hurt the most, and now that the three strands are separated, the threat to the Tartar is directly minimized.

Therefore, if there is no external intervention in this battle, Lu Xiangsheng has only one way to die, which is not only because of the Tartars, but more importantly, because of his pig teammates.

But now that Lantian has intervened, not only supporting Lu Xiang's firearms, but also preparing to cut off the logistical supply of the Tartars outside the fortress, so the outcome is unknown.
