Chapter Seventy-Five: A Great Gift

"Just a few nice words?"

Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked.

Anyone could hear the displeasure in his voice.

The official did not expect that his own people would encounter hard stubble as soon as they came to Hujiazhuang......

He immediately calmed down and asked instead, "General Wu, what do you want?" We are all people who understand, and we have made our words clear, and I will definitely convey it to Master Cai for you when the time comes. ”

"At least five hundred soldiers and horses, and a few other weapons, otherwise there is nothing to do."

Zhao Yu was resolute.

Hu Sanniang and Wu Song reached an unprecedented tacit understanding, and at the same time kept silent, simply not saying anything.

The air fell silent.

Seeing this, the official understood that he had been forced to the point of helplessness, so he could only nod and agree to this path, and there was no other choice.

After a battle between heaven and man in his heart, he finally decided to come down first.

It's a big deal to discuss it with Lord Cai in the future.

It's not easy to offend the person in front of you, not to mention that it's still on someone else's territory, and if something goes wrong, your head will move, and then you can just find a reason to deal with it.

As for Cai Jing's side?

It's just a little minion who died, so how can he make a big deal about it~

"I have taken what General Wu said to heart, and I will definitely inform Lord Cai when I go back, and I will try my best to fight for your conditions."

"It's wrong, it's not possible to have one less than five hundred people."

"Little one understands."

In the end, under Zhao Yu's strong request, the official had to agree to send five hundred soldiers and horses, and then left as if fleeing.

The appearance of leaving in a hurry is the same as that of a rat crossing the street.

After the official left, the atmosphere eased instantly.

Wu Song grinned and said, "Brother, it's worthy of you, the coward just now was so scared that he didn't dare to let go of a fart, and finally left in disgrace." ”

"It's okay for you to be presumptuous in front of a few of us, but don't talk nonsense in front of others to avoid falling into your mouth, understand?"

After speaking, Zhao Yu didn't forget to glance at it.

Of course, Wu Song also felt the oppressive force coming from his brother, realized his mistake, and nodded silently.

In the end, Hu Sanniang came out to ease the situation.

"General Wu, you must know that the guy just now represents Lord Cai, you are so tough, what if the other party secretly makes you a stumbling block?"

"The surname Cai doesn't dare and there is no need, now that Ximenqing is gone, I am the best candidate for him to support next."

Zhao Yu said that he would not say more.

As for the reason, Hu Sanniang understood it after pondering it.

A few people sat in the main hall for a while, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong here, they arranged a lunch meal and had a full meal.

But that didn't last long.

It was just over at noon.

"Miss, someone found a group of people in the northwest corner of Zhuangzi, judging by their attire, it should be Liangshanbo's gang!"

The little guy hurriedly came to report.

Hu Sanniang frowned when she heard this, and suddenly realized that Liang Shanbo's harassment several times was not accidental!

Most likely, it was premeditated!

She turned to look not far away, "General Wu, what do you think?" ”

"Since everyone is here, then we must have a good reception and prepare a big gift."

The corners of Zhao Yu's mouth rose slightly.

As a younger brother, based on his experience in getting along in recent days, Wu Song is extremely sure that his brother has bad water in his stomach again.

Of course, the people of Liangshan who suffered this time were the people of Liangshan!

Wu Song simply said: "Let my brother send you!" ”

"It's simple, you don't need to alarm Hujiazhuang and the thirty people you brought, the three of us can solve it! Hu Sanniang, are there saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal in Zhuangzi? Take a few more large crockpots. ”

Zhao Yu quickly asked.

Although Hu Sanniang didn't know what to do, she finally nodded and agreed, and ordered someone to quickly prepare a few things.

At this moment, I have to sigh at the benefits of everyone's big family.

Not only are there all kinds of strange things, but they are also large in quantity and fast in preparation.

Everything was stacked in an open space in the northwest corner of Zhuangzi.

Zhao Yu rubbed his hands eagerly, and then quickly got busy with his hands and feet, putting all kinds of materials on the ground into the crockpot, and just one person tinkering on the ground.

Wu Song and Hu Sanniang could only stand by and stare dryly.

They also wanted to come forward to help, but they couldn't understand it at all, so they chose to stop in order not to cause trouble.

Half a stick of incense after the time.

Zhao Yu finally raised his head again, smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and said, "Have any of you ever heard of gunpowder?" ”

"I've heard a little bit about it, but it's so hard to grasp that I haven't studied it in depth."

Hu Sanniang still felt a little ashamed when she said it.

Hearing this, Zhao Yu did not laugh at anyone, but immediately laughed, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were proud.

"It doesn't matter, I'll let you see the most powerful gunpowder today, and I'm guaranteed to be the only one on my side! Let's take Liangshanzhong to do an experiment! ”

With that, he turned and went into the side room, and pulled a wick from the oil lamp as a lead, and placed it on top of the crockpot.

Zhao Yu didn't rush to ignite after making these preparations.

Instead, he jumped onto the beam of the house, looked around and observed the environment, and determined the location of Liang Shanzhong and the others, and their clothes flew up, unstained with dust.

Wu Song asked with a blank expression.

"Brother, what are you doing here?"

"Please watch a firework, although it is still daylight, it will be spectacular."

As he spoke, Zhao Yu lit the special crockpot fuse in his hand, and then threw it out with lightning speed.

The black rumbling thing crossed the wall and was thrown into the distance.

After a muffled bang, a burst of smoke exploded in the mountains outside Hujiazhuang, and the choking smell of gunpowder smoke could be smelled from a long distance.

As for the Liangshan people who were originally squatting in the jungle, they suddenly became a mess.

"What kind of witchcraft is this? The lethality is so great! ”

"It looks like it's gunpowder or something!"

"But I've never seen such a fierce gunpowder!"

……

Inside Hujiazhuang.

Wu Song also heard the commotion outside, and his two eyes stared directly at the person beside him, "Brother, I have heard about the art of gunpowder, but that thing is extremely cumbersome to make, how are you?" ”

"It's just a personal talent, maybe I was born with this material."

Zhao Yu clapped his hands lightly and dusted off his body, "Although rest assured, after today's incident, Liang Shanzhong will not come to harass him again in a few days." ”

"Thank you, General Wu!"

Hu Sanniang was already shocked enough.

Now, I am even more sincerely grateful, and I can't wait to really kneel on the ground and kowtow.

Zhao Yu took advantage of the situation to help the person up, and glanced meaningfully outside the wall.

"Now we have other things to do, would you like to hear from me?"
