"Mr. Sun, how old was I when the battle at Wangjiazhai?"

"Thirteen years old, fourteen years old."

"I was fourteen years old. Because I was too young, some people in the village didn't believe it and some people opposed it, but what's the result? Yes, I am still very young now. Thousands of officers and soldiers in Huachi County are not comparable to my small village. But can I compare with me at that time with me now? I don't dare to force the officers and soldiers to rebel."

It’s true that Wang Wenliang came to Qingzhou to seize the merits a few years later, which really caused a mutiny.

Sun Changqing was still hesitating, and Wang Ju said again: "In addition, Wansheng brought a few good gifts to Sun Gong."

"I don't want a gift."

"I really don't want it?"

"don't want."

"Don't regret it, they may be national weapons."

Sun Changqing was amused by Wang Ju's aura and said, "Where are they?"

"Mr. Sun said he didn't want it."

"What kind of decent thing to bring it up? You are not allowed to laugh," Sun Changqing shouted at his maid. The maid was still standing beside him and laughing.

"In the inn, but Sun Gong wanted to see it, he had to invite a few people, Deputy General Manager Zhang, Chief Wang Qian, and Chief Zhong."

That is, Zhang Yu, who later called the number one general in Hebei, but he did have some skills.

Wang Zhaoming, this old eunuch has been in the military for a long time and has even charged forward many times, so he should not be underestimated.

Not to mention the treatment of the physics, the Bazi of Zhong Shiheng can really be treated with the ancient, the diagnosis, the physics and the friendship between the physics.

The three of them are the real military tycoons of Gyeongju. If there is no need, Wang Ju also wants to establish a good relationship with them. It is best to exchange for their support. Then the delicious meal next year will be a must!

However, Sun Changqing was a little confused. Wang Ju explained: "Late Sheng said that they were the national weapon, and he had to invite the three Ming Gongs, and wanted to try their power. It would be better to leave the city and be in a remote place."

“Why?”

"It's a bit powerful, and I'm also worried that the Xixia ears and ears, such as the fire terrestrial thorns, will be there."

If it makes sense, Sun Changqing would not be able to say anything else. He called the yamen runners and summoned Zhang Wangzhong and the other two.

Wang Ju first bowed: "I heard of the three great names for a long time, and Wang Ju is so kind."

"Minister Wang, don't be polite," the three of them said at the same time. Although Wang Ju is now a small official position, he is from a Jinshi and is the eighth Jinshi. He will be promoted very quickly in the future.

"Please."

When a few people came to the inn, Wang Ju found a ox cart, then moved out a few boxes with Quan San's eldest son and others from the inn and said, "Let's go out of the city, Magistrate Sun, don't take it to a remote place."

Sun Changqing took Wang Ju outside the city with curiosity and came to a small village.

Wang Ju looked at Zhuangzi strangely: "Mr. Sun, why are there not a single Zhuangzi?"

"This place was originally an An family's farm, but later, even the farm and arable land were sold to Qin Qilang in Binzhou at a low price, and moved to the rear with his family and tenant farmers. However, Qin Qilang was a gangster who used this farm to lure the traditional Chinese medicine Jia Li Yuanwai and his son to kill him. Then Qin Qilang was in a daze and no one dared to come and live there, saying that it was a haunted house."

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Ju said softly, but did not ask about the case again, nor did he have the right to ask about it, so he opened the first box.

"Fire Tribulus?"

"It's not an ordinary fire caltrop," Wang Ju said, asking everyone to stand behind the courtyard wall, then ignited it and threw it out.

A loud noise came from outside, and as the caltrops and iron nails in the fire caltrops splashed out together, they actually hit the door and courtyard wall dozens of meters away, and were deeply embedded in it.

"A weapon," Zhang Yu's eyes shined.

This is the real fire talitura, and he looked at Wang Ju in confusion: "Why is it so powerful?"

"Wait a mininute."

Wang Ju opened the second box, a large box, and began to take out many items, paired with a large wooden board and a bar beam, and assembled them with these strange objects.

"Stone Cannon?"

"General Zhong is considered a stone cannon, but it is a little different."

Wang Ju finally assembled and took out another fire caltrop from the first box, but it was bigger and weighed more than ten pounds. Wang Ju put it on the lasso and ignited it, and began to work with Li San. The fire caltrop was bounced out, flying out of three or four hundred meters, landing on the ground, and then exploded. Then it exploded, almost deafing the ears of several people. Sun Changqing and others rushed over to observe without considering the buzzing of their ears.

Its first killing is still very limited, and it is not a bomb, but the second killing is impressive. The huge explosive power quickly throws out the iron nails and caltrops in this extremely large fire caltrop, and some even pierce deep into the middle of the thick tree.

After watching for a while, Zhang Yu turned to look at this new type of stone cannon.

Stone cannon, also known as trencher.

There were many soldiers in the Song Dynasty, and several of them were familiar with them.

But this kind of stone cannon is different. In terms of range, the range is not too far. Some trenchers in the army have larger shooting weights and throw them farther. But it requires dozens or even hundreds of people to operate, which is precisely this point that restricts its performance. Two people can operate this kind of stone cannon, which can be disassembled or installed. How could Zhang Yu not understand its significance?

This is what Wang Ju made in Wangjiazhai and Yanzhou. He also asked Cheng Kan for gunpowder and some samples of fire terrestrial treasures. He also forged a set of hardware tools, wrenches, boots, pliers, and screws and nuts without considering the work.

Some gunpowder weapons began to appear in the Song Dynasty, and the people also began to produce firecrackers in large quantities.

It’s just that the gunpowder formula is not standard, so Wang Ju corrected the ratio. However, Wang Ju is still not very satisfied. Maybe the purity of nitrate and sulfur is not enough, so this power is not very great in Wang Ju’s eyes. Of course, it is much more powerful than the martial arts of the Song Dynasty.

Wang Ju used the principle of mechanics to transform the catapult technology of the Song Dynasty. After all, for later generations, as long as people understand it, this technology is not difficult. They also installed two sets of spring groups and one set of pulley groups. It is not a reflux gun, but it is more reasonable than the reflux gun design.

Wang Juzui called it a national weapon, but he didn't value it much in his heart. Even with Huihui cannons and artillery, he had the ability to bring the Song Dynasty's weapons to the Ming Dynasty. So what? Let's see what weapons were in the hands of the Tatars?

But if you want to take credit, you have something in your hand better than nothing.

Zhang Yu said: "Minister Wang, we must promote them."

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, let me show you something."

Wang Ju opened the last box and it was a set of armor. Wang Ju said, "It weighs less than 30 kilograms, so please ask General Manager Zhang to give it a try."

There are two test methods: one is to shoot with a bow and arrow to see its defense, and the other is to chop with a knife. Once these two levels are passed, it will be qualified armor.

Zhang Yu tried it and was overjoyed again: "How much does it cost?"

"It's not cheaper than ordinary armor, it should be similar, but Manager Zhang, have you ever thought about its weight?"

It was repeatedly forged, with reduced weight, increased loss, and wasted labor, but it was lightweight. Not every soldier in the Song army could wear iron armor. However, the defense of leather and cloth armor and paper armor was very low. The defense of iron invaders was too heavy. The heavy one could reach more than fifty pounds, and the weapons were carried in his hands. If he was a marching, he would have to carry the baggage behind him. This was also an ancient man. If he was later, he would not have to fight and would have to carry him on his back for a day.

Although such a heavy Inner Armor has defensive power, how can we exert our combat effectiveness when we go to the battlefield? Even if we run, we can't run, so victory can only be a small victory, and we can't catch up! Defeat is annihilation of the entire army and we can't escape!

What will be the meaning of losing 20 kilograms?

"Wang Ju, tell me its method," said Sun Changqing.

"Mr. Zhang, use your knife to chop against my sword." Wang Ju said, pulling out his sword.

Zhang Yu followed Wang Juyi and slashed him together, making a small hole in Zhang Yu's knife, but Zhang Yu's sword was a good knife: "Taoxi sword?"

"It is Taoxi Sword. I have dedicated this technology to the court a long time ago. I don't know how the court handles it, but I have never seen weapons forged with this method. If you look at these components, they are forged with some of the techniques of Taoxi Sword. This is just a model, a small stone cannon, which can be operated by two people, which is conducive to playing a role in field battles. It can also be enlarged... It is for siege."

Both Zhang Yu and Sun Changqing understood that this technique must be kept confidential, otherwise it would be a nightmare for the people of Xixia to get it with this huge fire thorn.

"The production method of Taoxi sword is very slow, so I think it is necessary to ask Mr. Sun to notify the court and ask the court to send reliable craftsmen from the capital to Qingzhou for further research and development, one for confidentiality, and the other for large-scale production. Not only stone cannons, but also weapons such as armor, guns, bows and arrows can be improved."

"Wang Ju, it's reasonable."

"Sun Gong, Taoxi sword and this kind of stone cannon were thought of by Wansheng. Evening can be handed over to the court. However, this kind of gunpowder has nothing to do with Evening, but him," Wang Ju nodded at Li Sangou: "Evening is a state official and must be handed over. Uncle Sangou is a commoner. If the court wants him to hand over, he will give him some reward."

"What reward do you want?" Sun Changqing asked Li Sangou.

Wang Judai replied: "The army in charge of the army."

"The commander of the Fanluo Army, no wonder you want to choose military power," Sun Changqing said in surprise, and said again: "Minister Wang, this is not a joke."
