Chapter 299: The Martial Arts Begin

"Sugar! Thunder! ”

In the ordnance prison, after a long time, Zhao Xu was still shocked by the power of the new gunpowder formula.

The three prime ministers also had strange faces,

Sugar!

White sugar is a common thing in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is already a whim for doctors to add white sugar to traditional Chinese medicine, but who would have thought that white sugar could also be added to gunpowder.

"I have heard for a long time that Fan Taicheng is good at using evil prescriptions, and the old man is an eye-opener today." Zhang Dian had to admire.

Fan Zheng smiled and said: "The doctor's specialty is to study medicines, and gunpowder is also medicine, so naturally it is also in the doctor's research." ”

The three prime ministers were speechless, especially Su Song, who is also proficient in medical skills, except for setting off a few firecrackers during the New Year, where did he think of developing gunpowder.

Zhao Xu laughed loudly: "As soon as the gunpowder came out, the stubborn disease of the Great Song Dynasty was immediately solved, and it seems that the gunpowder is the medicine of the country." ”

"The medicine of the country!"

Lu Dafang nodded silently, as soon as the gunpowder came out, the situation of the weakness of the Great Song Dynasty's armed forces was directly reversed, what is it if it is not the medicine of the country!

"Your Majesty thinks that Fan can win the championship in one fell swoop by participating in this martial arts!" Suddenly, Fan Zheng said in surprise.

"Participate in the martial arts! Could it be that Fan Taicheng is still proficient in martial arts! ”

Zhao Xu couldn't help but be stunned, and glanced at Fan Zheng suspiciously, he and Fan Zheng often worked out together, although he understood that Fan Zheng was stronger than him, but compared with the fierce generals in the army, I am afraid it is difficult to have an enemy.

Lu Dafang sneered: "The sword in the ring has no eyes, Fan Taicheng should not be strong!" ”

Fan Zheng smiled slightly and said, "Then can Fan win the championship with this!" ”

Say it! Fan Zheng took out a few wooden handles and hung them on himself.

Lu Dafang was silent for a moment, they had just seen the power of the earth-shaking thunder, its power was as high as fifteen steps, and the ring was only ten steps in radius, and it was within the explosion range of the earth-shaking thunder, I am afraid that no one was the enemy of it.

Of course, they also knew that it was impossible for Fan Zheng to really go to the ring to fight, and the imperial court would not allow Fan Zheng to carry the earth-shattering thunder to the battlefield.

"As soon as the earth-shattering thunder comes out, the flesh and blood are powerless to resist firearms, and the era of individual bravery of soldiers will decline." Su Song's eyes flashed.

"Martial arts are flourishing, and the integration of civil and military may be a feasible way." Zhang Dian said excitedly.

Prior to this, although the Great Song Dynasty had martial arts, they were all marginalized in the Great Song Dynasty, and they were rarely able to shine in the army, so most of the generals in the army were fierce generals who fought with a knife and a gun in the border army.

Fan Zheng proposed the integration of civil and military forces to solve the drawbacks of using literature and military power, and although the ministers of the DPRK and China agreed to hold martial arts and conduct martial arts, they had doubts in their hearts.

Now that the three prime ministers have witnessed the power of the new type of earth-shaking thunder, they can't help but feel a great boost of confidence, even if Lu Bu is alive, he may not be able to escape in the face of the terrifying earth-shaking thunder.

"The Great Song Dynasty has this artifact, and this martial arts move must require both civil and military skills, and the promotion of generals in the army must be trained in Kaifeng." Zhao Xu said solemnly.

Zhao Xu finally nodded, with the appearance of thunder, personal force is no longer the first choice for generals, and the time is ripe for generals to be both civil and military.

The three prime ministers nodded solemnly.

For a long time, the officers from the martial arts examination were only from the "miscellaneous paths", and the promotion was not as smooth as the officers from the "right path" army, and now the appearance of earth-shattering thunder and gunpowder weapons will inevitably lead to a great revival of martial arts, and in the future, martial arts and martial arts will probably be the most important way for military generals in this life.

……………………

The people returned to the temple of the arch.

"Spread the decree and recruit 30,000 soldiers for the use of doctors to set up a sugarcane farm in the south of the Yangtze River." Zhao Xu immediately issued a holy decree.

"The official is wise!"

The three prime ministers did not hesitate to stamp their seals and pass their wills.

When the decree reached the Privy Council, Zeng Bu's eyes widened and he looked at the will in disbelief.

"Lord Zeng, this is 30,000 soldiers!" A Privy Council official frowned.

As the Privy Council, they only care about the stability of the army and the safety of the country, and there are 60,000 fewer soldiers all of a sudden, which is still a big turmoil for the Privy Council.

"Since it is the will of the officials, the Privy Council will do it! Orders were sent to the armies, and the old and weak soldiers were selected and handed over to the doctors, and sugar cane farms were formed. Zeng Bu said solemnly.

"Yes! My lord! The Privy Council officer commanded.

Zeng Bu thought about it, and finally couldn't bear it, and found Zhang Dian to ask the reason.

"Zeng wanted to know what evil method Fan Zheng used in the weapons prison, and even Xianggong Zhang agreed to set up a sugarcane farm." Zeng Bu went straight to the point.

Zhang Dian couldn't help but hear the deafening roar in the firearms prison in his mind, as well as the experience of Zeng Gongliang and Shen Kuo, and shook his head at the moment: "You just need to know that this matter is unanimously agreed by the officials and the three prime ministers, and its importance is more than 30,000 soldiers to form a construction corps in the Hehuang Valley, and the most important thing for you at the moment is to hold a good military move, which is the top priority in the court." ”

Zeng Bu was suddenly shocked, stared at Zhang Dian for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.

As the Privy Council passed the sugar cane farm of the doctor's house, the Manchu dynasty was also in an uproar, and a high-ranking official asked the three prime ministers, and received the same reply.

There are even more officials who are not willing to give up, and they wrote to impeach Fan Zheng for his fake public and private behavior, but all of them were lost in the sea, and they were even refuted.

"The official family can't help but believe in Fan Zheng too much!" Many officials were discouraged.

The Manchu officials talked a lot, but they were soon attracted by the upcoming martial arts.

"This year's martial arts requires both civil and military generals! And the winner must enter the army. ”

The news of the imperial court's opening of the Enke martial arts has long been published in the Di newspaper, and the martial arts can be directly used as officials, which will naturally attract countless people who practice martial arts.

However, when they learned that the specifications of this year's martial arts had been changed, they must be both civil and military, and they must pass the literary test first before they can participate in the later martial arts test.

"Those of us who practice martial arts only need to go into battle to kill the enemy, where do we still need to learn literature!" A martial artist with a rebellious face said angrily.

"Definitely! Although we are people who practice martial arts, we are destined to be generals in the future, not the big soldiers who go into battle to fight, how can we lead troops to fight if we don't know the art of war! There are also people who practice martial arts and said happily.

The martial arts will test the art of war, and this is no stranger to a group of martial artists, but in the past, the art of war only accounted for one of the martial arts examinations, in addition, there were long stacks, horse shooting, horse pistols, and foot shooting piercing.

Many martial artists think that they are strong in force and think that they can win with force! I don't like the art of war at all, and some don't even know a few big characters, so the court suddenly attaches importance to the art of war, and is directly rejected by one size fits all.

Of course, there are also martial artists with slightly weaker military values, who are ecstatic about the changes in the imperial court, as long as the literature tests a group of illiterate martial artists, it will naturally leave them more opportunities.

As for Fan Zheng! Naturally, the imperial court did not agree, and Fan Zheng took the thunder to compete for martial arts.

However, he still appeared in the martial arts examination room, of course, not to compete, but as a doctor to treat the injured in martial arts.
