【Second update.】

From the cavalry sent out, Yelu Yixin heard how powerless the civilians of the Song Dynasty were in the face of the Great Liao iron hoof.

But at the same time, Yelu Yixin also used his personal experience to feel that the strength of the Song army has increased sharply at a faster speed.

In terms of firearm technology, the gap between the two countries is getting bigger and bigger. The power of artillery and the level of firearms are completely one-sided. Even if Yelu Yixin tries to train the craftsmen of the fire supervision at all costs, he still cannot keep up with the manufacturing level of the military weapon supervision.

Although you can feel this on weekdays, it is far from as intuitive and clear as it is on the battlefield.

The artillery and sharpshooters of Tianmen Village clearly slapped the reality on the face of him, the Emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty.

Yelu Yixin really wanted to take down Tianmen Village, but he led a 100,000 army, but he was helpless in this small border city. He went to the front line in person and wanted to understand how the Song army defended the city and witness the corresponding new siege method at a closer distance, rather than just wanting to see the progress of tunnel excavation.

When Yelu Yixin was in the tunnel and heard the Song people attack, he couldn't help but secretly admire that the ability and courage of Song General to seize the opportunity was really outstanding, much better than the Song generals he had seen in the past.

However, the admiration of Yu Yu had to stop abruptly when the Song people dropped the bomb into the tunnel. Yelu Yixin never expected that the Song army who came to attack at night could break through the group of imperial guards who were one in a thousand, and throw the bomb into the tunnel before reinforcements arrived for rescue.

During that raid, Yelu Yixin lost half of the guards in the imperial tent, and he also injured his internal organs in the explosion. According to the medical officer, he can only rest and cannot continue to work hard.

Doctors will not tell bad news to patients in their original form, especially when the patient is an emperor. Yelu Yixin is very clear about this, and he himself is also very clear about his physical condition.

The alternation was originally expected to take several years, but now it is imminent. If a stable handover is needed, it has become more unstable.

Even if you want to stop now, it is too late. How can you pay as little as possible and end this war with a decent amount? Yelu Yixin doesn’t know what to do? Zhang Dun and Han Gang are definitely not Chunchun gentlemen. They will never let them go when they have the opportunity to take a big bite.

"His Majesty!"

"Grandfather of the Emperor!"

Two voices, one in front and one behind, woke Yelu Yixin up from his meditation, opened his eyes, and saw Yelu Huaiqing and Xiao Jingang, who were supposed to be patrolling outside, appear in the imperial tent.

"You two..."

Why did he come back just now? Yelu Yixin just wanted to ask this, but a palpitations grabbed his heart. Has something happened?

"Grandfather of the Emperor." Yelu Huaiqing excitedly held a long pole, which was like a spear. The top was not the spear head, but the paper-paste cylinder, wet and dripping with dirty water, dyeing the pure white sheepskin felt spread on the ground with a little black spot. However, the emperor, who had always paid attention to personal cleaning, could not care about so much. "This is something that the Song people used to transport the unveiled posts. They flew from Tianmen Village to the front camp, but they were not shot with cannons."

"Is there gunpowder inside?" Yelu Yixin asked keenly when he saw the water in his grandson's hands.

The more you understand the power of a firearm, the more you need to be vigilant. Firearms and other objects do not say who can hold them in your hand and walk into the imperial tent. When such dangerous firearms of unknown origin are delivered to him, they must pass the water first.

Yelu Huaiqing blushed with excitement and nodded, "The Song people in Tianmen Village launched a lot of these things, and they almost exploded when they arrived at the camp. There were tens of thousands of reports on the camp. Now there is only one that has not exploded."

Yelu Yixin thought for a moment and accurately grasped the grandson's meaning, "You mean that this pole can fly over three miles and explode when it reaches the target?"

Yelu Huaiqing nodded violently. If he hadn't discovered this, how could he put aside the errandfather's entrusted errand and run back?

"Bubao, do a good job!" Yelu Yixin praised him without hesitation.

It can be seen that Yelu Huaiqing is still eye-catching. Although he is still a little far from Yelu Yixin's expectations, it is quite good. It is obviously better than the others among his grandchildren. Yelu Yixin really hopes that his prince can see this too. If he wants to pass on the Liao Dynasty of Yelu Yixin's family for a long time, this third generation must also choose wise men.

However, Yelu Yixin's voice sank, "But do you know that the errand I have given you was delayed because of this." The voice was filled with disappointment and anger, "When did I teach you, can the king's order be violated? How can the military situation be slow?"

Yelu Huaiqing was so scared that he was shocked and hurriedly said, "It's my grandson who is wrong. My grandson is going out now!"

He handed the long pole to an eunuch, knelt down and bowed, and went out in a panic.

When Xiao Jingang found that he was the only one left, he immediately felt that life was hard to bear, especially since the emperor gave up his grandson, but ignored him at all.

Yelu Yixin asked the eunuch to take the long pole over, and then looked carefully with the light. He also used a knife to disassemble the outer wrapping paper case of the pole head, and took out hundreds of unveiled posts, revealing the core bamboo tube from it. Only after satisfying his curiosity, he turned around and asked Xiao Jingang, "Budou Nu, do you think this is a new thing for the Southern Dynasty military weapon surveillance?"

Xiao Jingang shook his head. He and Yelu Huaiqing had already inferred the same issue before, "It's not a military weapon surveillance, the military weapon surveillance's skills are not so rough, and there is no sign yet."

Xiao Jingang had already understood the significance of this judgment. In other words, this new weapon was created by the craftsmen in the city himself. In other words, the craftsmen in the imperial camp could also be made - they were not as good as the hundreds of famous craftsmen in the military weapons prison of the Southern Dynasty, but it was not difficult to overwhelm the craftsmen in a mere city wall.

Yelu Yixin nodded slightly and agreed with Xiao Jingang's judgment.

If it is a military weapon surveillance product, it goes without saying that the number is. With their personality, they must have molded iron shells as the head, so that they can ensure uniformity and the weapon performance will not be uneven. It is definitely impossible to use bamboo tubes to make it, let alone so rough.

"What else?" Yelu Yixin asked, while using a knife to pick up the things inside the bamboo tube. The back end of the bamboo tube had been burned black, but there was still a pack of things in the front section. I picked it out and cut it open. It turned out to see that it was indeed gunpowder, but it was all soaked.

After working on it for a long time, before waiting for the answer, he raised his head, "What else?"

Xiao Jingang kept thinking, and was urging at once, and replied in a hurry, "But it is also possible that it has not been installed yet, it is a copy. The captives are not confessing that there is a horse in Tianmen Village to bear it. He graduated from the martial arts in Beijing and was extremely trusted by the leader of the village. It is said that Kaifeng martial arts has a lot of talents, so maybe it was brought by him."

Yelu Yixin frowned casually, and he didn't like this guess.

Xiao Jingang had been observing his expressions and when he saw him, he hurriedly said, "It is possible... it is possible that he was ignored by military weapons!"

"Indeed." Yelu Yixin laughed.

No matter how capable the military weapon supervisor is, it is also an official government office. What kind of virtue will the officials in it have? Yelu Yixin, who has become an old minister, is a clean and clear-minded person.

"Luckily they are confused." Yelu Yixin didn't believe that the inventor of the flying long pole had not sent it to the military weapon supervision.

Just looking at the current appearance and its effect, you will know that it must be the result of multiple experiments, but it did not appear on the list of military weapon supervision manufacturing. This must have been ignored by the ignorant officials in the military weapon supervision.

"This is a good thing." The old emperor's eyes showed a surprising look, and even his spirit was a little stronger than before. He stroked the long tail pole and said in a trembling voice, "Maybe stronger than the cannon."

Xiao Jingang nodded violently. He didn't dare to say anything, but he also thought so.

The artillery can only fire solid bombs, chain bombs and shotguns, and there are no shells that can explode. It is said that the Song people had one, but no one saw it. However, this flying pole can shoot from a long distance and explode. The greater the one, the greater the power. If you can fill dozens of kilograms of gunpowder in one breath, even if you can still not blow up the city wall, you can fly into the city and explode it, and you will be a piece of it. The houses, people and animals are all gone. With this weapon, what kind of city can't be destroyed?

"This time in the Great Liao Dynasty, maybe there will be firearms that surpass those of the Song people." Yelu Yixin said in a trembling voice.

Xiao Jingang suddenly realized that he had found tears on the corner of the emperor's eyes.

Yelu Yixin was really excited, and the pain in his chest made him throw him out of the sky.

Just like a tenant farmer, he worked hard for decades and couldn't eat and wear well, but suddenly one day, the tenant farmer found that a profitable business would be successful, even better than the landlord he farmed for. Of course, it would be a great event that would have been a joyful drink for half a month, and it was normal to be excited and cry.

Previously, the research on firearms in the Great Liao Dynasty followed the pace of the Southern Dynasties, but it was always one step slower than the Southern Dynasties and one level behind.

Although it is enough to suppress the barbarians in all directions, destroy the country that is thousands of miles away, and even defeat the big country that is thousands of miles away, it is still far from enough compared to the main master.

Just like the rifled rifle, built by the Daliao Industrial and Fire Prison, he could only be used as a toy for one person, but the military weapon Prison had already slaughtered the Daliao athletes on the battlefield.

However, now, all the great Liao monarchs and ministers in the tent have seen a little hope of surpassing their old opponents.

Such a long pole is not valued by the Southern Dynasties' military weapons prisons, but in the hands of the Daliao, it is very likely to exert its power beyond the cannon.

"Buddhist, do you know?" Since heading south, Xiao Jingang has never seen such a relieved and relaxed smile on Yelu Yixin's face. "When I see this pole, I feel that the blow is really worth it."
