Iron Dynasty

The warm wind is floating, blowing the golden wheat waves in the field.

Zhu's village, which is close to the wheat field, is hot at this time, and every family is busy looking for fire in their cesspools.

Zhu Wuliu ran the fastest. At this time, he already had a large handful of white powder in his hand. He carefully searched the pit in his home before and after. Zhu Wuliu carefully wrapped the white powder and immediately went to Qingzhou City. went.

"Zhu Wuliu, you go and see first, if you can really sell money, we will go."

"Yes, you run fast, we wait for you to come back."

"..."

Many people in the village are digging, and many people are watching. The people who are suffering are not yet fully convinced of the government.

Although the farming order and the production team have benefited them some, the impression that the government has deep-rooted in their hearts is difficult to change for a while.

They were afraid that they would just send things for nothing.

Zhu Wuliu's footsteps did not stop. His brother Zhu Sansi was in the army. He believed in the current Qingzhou government office and the current King Qi more than others.

Holding the white powder tightly, Zhu Wuliu arrived at Qingzhou City and went directly to the palace.

At this time, at the gate of the government office, a teenager who was similar in grade seemed to be waiting for something. Zhu Wuliu hesitated and stepped forward and asked, "Is Huo Xiao bought here?"

This young man is Lu Tong's subordinate. In order to distinguish the fire, Lu Tong sent the surplus people to the state government offices to be responsible for the acquisition.

"Yes." The boy said in surprise.

So far no one has come here to pay saltpeter, this boy is the first one.

Zhu Wuliu lightly breathed a sigh of relief, handed Huo Xiao over, and said, "I have found so many."

There was a pole in front of the boy. He weighed the things Zhu Wuliu brought, and said: "There are five taels in total, because you are the first one. Your Majesty said, the saltpeter brought by the first 100 people is twenty Buy a jin of money to encourage it. This is ten dollars. Take it well."

With the ten copper plates in hand, Zhu Wuliu smiled with joy.

At this time, the boy said to Zhu Wuliu: "By the way, there is another way to get more saltpeter, do you want to learn?"

"Yes!" Zhu Wuliu agreed without hesitation. The temperature of the copper coin in his hand made him believe in Qingzhou's government office.

The boy nodded, and told Zhu Wuliu the method of digging out the old soil mixed with plant ash to make fire.

Zhu Wuliu nodded and immediately returned to the village.

At this time, seeing Zhu Wuliu coming back, many villagers gathered around and asked: "How is Wuliu?"

Zhu Wuliu brightened the copper coin in his hand, "I said that our highness will not deceive the people. The people of the government office said that the first 100 people will buy it for 20 cents per catty."

As soon as these words came out, the people around Zhu Wuliu immediately ran away, picked up the saltpeter from the house and ran to Qingzhou City.

In an instant, hundreds of people seemed to be chased by a dog.

Zhu Wuliu smiled, squeezed the copper coin in his hand, thinking how to use the money he earned?

At this time, the news that Huoxiao could really pay back the money spread out, and the spread slowly spread, and more people joined in the search and production of Huoxiao.

After half a month of shortage of materials for the chemical laboratory in the workshop area of ​​Qingzhou City, the first batch of saltpeter arrived. Although the saltpeter had a strong smell of urine, it was better than nothing.

"His Royal Highness, you are really amazing. That's how you solved the saltpetre problem. Hehe, the king of Shu still wants to take advantage of His Royal Highness. Now it seems that he will have no place to sell the saltpetre in the future."

Lu Tong was almost fainted by the sack of saltpeter he sent, but he still danced happily.

Xiao Ming smiled bitterly, if he could use normal saltpeter, whoever would look for it in the cesspool.

And this is not a long-term solution. After all, the formation of saltpeter takes time, and this folk method of taking saltpeter cannot replace saltpeter mines.

This time, he disclosed this method of soil smelting, one to save the emergency, the other to disgust the king of Shu.

When the people of Da Yu country understand how to get saltpeter, he sees where to sell saltpeter in this land.

"Now that there is enough saltpeter, the gunpowder must be prepared as much as possible." Xiao Ming ordered.

Regarding King Shu, his letter to Chang'an has not come back yet, and I don't know how Xiao Wenxuan will handle the matter.

In any case, he temporarily passed this barrier.

With sufficient gunpowder, he will now think about how to achieve the throwing of gunpowder cans.

Xiao Ming has his own ideas about this gunpowder pot, and there is never a single weapon on the battlefield.

This artillery is designed to deal with catapults and to kill enemies farther away, but this gunpowder canister is different, it is to kill the barbarian army gathered under the city and climbing the ladder.

And the power of this clay pot is that it can be filled with a large amount of gunpowder. If the gunpowder is just a shock wave, it can make the barbarians turn their backs. This is different from the linear damage of artillery, but it belongs to the range of damage.

Aiming at the fragile shortcomings of clay pots, Xiao Ming plans to wrap a thick layer of straw on the outside of the pots and bundle them layer by layer.

As long as a small catapult is erected on the city wall at that time, the artillery can be fully realized at a long distance, within 200 meters of the catapult, and the short-range coverage of the soldiers thrown so that the barbarians can enjoy the feast of gunpowder at any place.

While thinking about this frenzied defensive tactic, Xiao Ming went to the Department of Equipment. Chen Qi is very busy now, but there is no way. This matter has to be left to him...

At the same time, in Chang'an, a group of unwelcome people arrived in Chang'an City.

These people are barbarian messengers from the Golden Horde. Their arrival broke the calm atmosphere of Chang'an City. From the first-grade members to the Li people, everyone was spying on the purpose of these barbarian messengers.

This will also mean that the Great Yu Kingdom and the Golden Horde will be at peace in the future.

"Three messengers, please go to the post and rest for a while. Tomorrow your Majesty will summon three messengers from afar."

The messenger in charge of entertaining the barbarians is Honghe Temple Qing Zhao Xing. All the affairs of foreign messengers in the country of Da Yu will be handled by Honghe Temple~www.wuxiaspot.com~Tomorrow! Today we are going to see your emperor, we have delayed our major events, beware of the dog! "

The barbarian messenger who came this time was tall, with his hair draped behind his back, braided braids on both sides, golden rings on his ears gleaming with cold light, his face was dark and his expression was cold.

Along with him were two guards wearing leather armor and felt hats, and it was one of the guards who was speaking badly at this time.

Zhao Xing was yelled and couldn't help feeling a little frightened.

The barbarians are so powerful that the officials in Chang'an and the upper and lower officials mentioned the barbaric discoloration. Of course, Zhao Xing was one of them.

This was when he saw the barbarian messenger, his legs trembled and his head was flustered, for fear that these barbarians' uncles would be alive.

"My messenger." Zhao Xing said with a flattering smile: "The official is also to convey the emperor's will. It is really powerless. Please forgive me for the three adults. I will immediately arrange the wine and food for the three adults, can you?"
