Chapter 90 Seeking Death(1/3)
The Mongols went south.
It was only on the fourth day after Zuo Zhong's return that news was received in Xiangyang City.
Ten thousand cyclists were cut from Datong Prefecture, passing through Taiyuan, Pingyuan, Henan, and finally to Dengzhou, Luoyang.
When the news reached Xiangyang, the Mongol cavalry had already landed in front of Luoyang City.
In addition, there is also a military information from Daming Mansion.
After receiving the message.
There was no panic in Xiangyang City.
Is there any difference between the Mongolians and the Jin people?
Nothing difference.
Anyway, they are all barbarians, and they all want to invade anyway.
The military and civilians who dare to stay on the front line of the Yangtze River have long been used to this.
The only thing worth complaining about is that the Jin people are getting worse and worse, and they actually start sending out territory.
This made many men who had a grudge against the Jin people spit and curse, and they also looked forward to Yue Fei's second Northern Expedition.
The golden man is no longer able to do it.
Well, this is a false proposition.
Compared with the Jin Kingdom fifty years ago, the Jin Kingdom now naturally seems corrupt.
But you have to know.
Even now, Jin has not shown any decadence in its country.
There are 500,000 domestic infantry soldiers and 200,000 string controls.
Even the Mongolians were unwilling to fight a war head-on.
Full Moon Tower.
Top floor.
Today is a sunny day.
Sitting in a seat by the window.
Lan Li looked at the pedestrians below like ants, celebrating the parade like banners.
I hope Yue Fei will increase his efforts and complete the feat of the Northern Expedition as soon as possible.
After drinking a sip of tea, my face looked warm:
"It seems that no one takes the Mongolians seriously."
"Donghaibo, Yun is back this time..."
"Don't, talk to me."
Looking at Yue Yun's face with embarrassment, Lan Li rolled her eyes and said:
"Mr. Lan can't stand the name of General Xiaoyue, you, the Nemesis of Donghai.
The Lan family is a businessman.
Mr. Lan has never been to this Donghaibo territory."
"Brother Lan..."
"Don't call me Brother Lan, just call me Lan Li."
"That ten thousand wooden cannons..."
"No!"
While speaking, Lan Li glared at him:
"If you don't go to the craftsman camp to ask for military affairs like wooden cannons, why do you come to Lan to do it?"
"Brother Lan, this..."
Yue Yun felt a little guilty when he heard this.
At this time, Yue Yun was in the wrong.
Since the Northern Expedition, some people have discovered the power of firearms and have wanted to make them to "nationalize".
In the face of such big news, the Lan family naturally has no room for struggle.
The production process of wooden cannons has been handed over.
But then what?
Zhao Yi spent a lot of money on his money.
As a result, when Yue Fei sent someone to ask for it, the craftsman's camp also pulled out thousands of decent wooden cannons.
Yue Fei was naturally happy.
Since the craftsman can be done, it means that this thing can be armed to the entire army!
He personally took people to the school ground to test the shooting.
Ten wooden cannons were fired at the same time.
ignition.
Then, a group of generals who participated in the last Northern Expedition were stunned.
After the test fire, the ten wooden cannons exploded three of them.
The remaining seven gates.
There are three goals with a range of less than ten feet, and the remaining four goals have the accuracy... Is there any accuracy?
The stone target was shot at a hundred steps away. After the fire was opened, it moved to the woods twenty meters away!
How to use this thing?
Just have fun!
The range is insufficient, the power is insufficient, the accuracy is insufficient, and the safety is even worse!
Compared with the wooden cannons produced by the Lan family, the thing that craftsmanship and craftsmanship are not even as good as the crossbow...
"Don't say that, Brother Yue, my Lan family is thinking about living their own life now.
The secret method of making wooden cannons has also been handed over. If you think I am not doing anything serious, you can also take this title of Donghaibo together."
When he said this, Lan Li looked at Yue Yun coldly.
It’s not that he is unreasonable, but that the actions of some people are really heartbreaking.
When handing over the secret recipe.
Fulu has repeatedly said that firearm manufacturing is a very accurate thing and cannot be involved in non-professional people.
But they didn't take it seriously at all.
The Lan family gave two masters to come.
The news from the master craftsman was so angry that Lao Fulu almost suffered a heart attack!
It was agreed that I would use iron wood that had been dried in the shade for two years, but they just used some messy wood casually.
The ratio of gunpowder is even more at will.
As for the handwork required to make the cannon barrel, it needs to be carefully carved and equipped with cooked iron to fix it.
As a result, they just messed up and it was over!
Why is it so delicate to carve?
Is it laborious?
I just spent money to buy a seat to eat imperial grain. I paid all the money, but you dare to call me?
The two masters of the Lan family agreed that the monthly salary would be 80 taels of silver.
In the end, what I got was eighteen taels and sixteen cents.
The "skilled workers" who should have been attending classes in the craftsmanship camp did not learn or talk about it, but they also hired a group of beggars on the street to work.
Two masters from the Lan family prayed several times to return to the Lan family.
But they are not letting go!
How could you two run away?
If you two run away, who will build this wooden cannon?
If the responsibility is taken down in the future, who will be asked to take the blame?
The place where the snowflakes and silver piles are piled up for 100,000 taels of real use for manufacturing is less than 8,000 taels.
To be continued...
