Chapter 22 The Tartars are here

"Be careful when joining the army, Li!" Zhu Dapeng was also shocked by the movement of the artillery, but his soul had experienced the baptism of the sea of ​​firecrackers on New Year's Eve in the last century. After only a few seconds, he completely returned to normal. He bent down and reached out to support Sikang to join the army.

But when Li Mubai saw his eyes and teeth closed, his face turned gray, he fainted from fear. On the robe between his legs, there was a large amount of white mist.

"Li Join the Army, Li Join the Army, wake up quickly, wake up, brothers are watching you from the side!" Seeing Li Mubai so scared that he was so embarrassed, Zhu Dapeng was both angry and funny. He quickly squatted down and reached out to pinch this guy's man.

He had never had first aid experience before, and his fingers to kill pigs were far less flexible than his whole life. Therefore, he pinched Li Mubai's lips and pinched it until he pinched the guy's mouth into a chrysanthemum, and then he heard a low sob, "Woooo, wuwu, die, die, this time I'm really dead! Master King of Hell, Xiaomin has never done bad things! Xiaomin has only been an official for a few days and has not had time to catch it yet! Please Master King of Hell."

"I'm not dead! I'm far away from death! Open your eyes and open your eyes quickly!?" Zhu Dapeng was both angry and funny. He gently patted Li Mubai's face a few times and said loudly. Why are all scholars from the Yuan Dynasty like this?! Mr. Su is like this, and the one with the surname Li is like this, as if the only purpose of becoming an official is to embezzle.

Li Mubai heard the voice a little familiar, secretly opened his eyes a gap, and then closed it tightly, "I, where am I? Maitreya, Master Maitreya, please spare me. The young man, the young man, also acted on orders, the young man would never dare to do it again, and he would never dare to do it again! Please, please let it go and reincarnate! The young man will definitely be a good person and a good person in his next life, and he will never dare to do it again."

"Let you go?" Zhu Dapeng was slightly stunned, and then realized that the person surnamed Li thought he was dead and his soul was detained by Maitreya Buddha, so he begged him to let go!

Before he could explain, Li Mubai started crying loudly. While crying, he rolled over and said, "Little, the little one really didn't think about dealing with you! Zhao Changshi, Zhao Jun used that guy to force the little one to embezzle your weapons. The little one, the little one dared not refuse. Master Maitreya, you should show your compassion and let the little one be reincarnated!"

The weather was already very cold at the end of November, and this guy didn't even bother me. He rolled around in his urine, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a mud sow.

Zhu Dapeng was so angry that he was so angry that he stood up and kicked Li Mubai with his big foot, "Let's go, let's fart! Does it hurt? Does it hurt? If you die, you won't feel the pain. If you don't know the pain, I will continue to kick. Don't watch it, let's wake up the spirits for Li Zongjun!"

"Abide by the order!" Wang Dapang and Yu Changlin, the personal soldiers, had long disliked Li Mubai, and agreed loudly and pounced on him, punching and kicking him, making the man beg for mercy. "Oh, oh, oh! Bless, spare your life! Don't beat him, don't beat him. I'm not dead, I'm still alive! It hurts, it hurts me so much. Governor, please let me go this time!"

"I know it hurts?" Zhu Dapeng waved his hands at Wang and Yu and signaled that they would stop punishing Li Mubai. Then he looked down at the guy's face and asked with a sneer.

"I know, I know, Governor Xie will not kill you, I will be so kind to kill you!" Li Mubai's nose was also beaten with a crooked face, his face was blue and purple, and he held his head with both hands and responded cryingly.

"Then my weapons?!" Zhu Dapeng glanced at him and continued to ask with a sneer.

"Yes, yes, after the young one goes back, after he goes back, I will allocate a thousand spears to you first!" Li Mubai knew that if he didn't give an explanation today, it would be difficult for him to get away with it. He nodded quickly and agreed loudly.

After making a promise, he hugged his vitals with both hands again and explained with a sad face: "Little one, the little one is really on order. Zhao Changshi said, Zhao Changshi said, your left army was the latest, so there is no hurry to allocate the military weapons, no hurry to be in a moment!"

Zhu Dapeng was not interested in this trick that he had long known. He reached out and pulled Li Mubai up from the ground, and said with a sneer: "As the saying goes, county officials are worse than to take charge. How many weapons do you send out, then Zhao Changshi can still count the points every day? Besides, I really forced me to be too anxious and beat the lawsuit to the chief executive. Do you think Zhao Changshi would admit that he was instructing you to look at Zuo Jun differently, or would he refuse to admit it and lend your head to use it?!"

Talking to scholars is a relief, especially those who are timid and ulterior motives like Li Mubai. The guy couldn't help but feel excited and started to make a cold war when he heard it. He didn't bother to argue for himself, so he bowed first, and then whispered: "Secretary, the officials know that they are wrong. Please be kind to the governor! In the future, as long as Zhao Changshi refused to explicitly prohibit the issuance of weapons and armor to the left army, the officials will never lose points!"

"You know the importance of it!" Zhu Dapeng sneered and threatened again. Li Mubai, who was absent-minded, turned around to check the cannon firing site. Before he could get to the place, the captain of the personal soldiers, Xu Hongsan, was already holding a smoky copper shell in both hands and walked up quickly, "Please look, Governor!"

"What is this?!" Zhu Dapeng stopped and looked carefully. He saw four or five three-inch-long holes cracked in the thing in Xu Hongsan's hand, venting everywhere, taking off a piece of roasted Western meat sausage!

"The gun is broken!" Xu Hongsan grinned and responded with a bitter face.

Needless to say, Zhu Dapeng knew that this thing was a corpse left by a gun. Unexpectedly, it was blown up by black gunpowder! It seems that this black gunpowder is not as useless as he had seen on the forum in his previous life. It must be a little worse than trinitro toluene, but it is still better than the counterfeit and shoddy products produced in the Dayuan Dynasty!

Fortunately, this primitive cannon was made of pure copper. Although it was blown open, there were not many fragments and did not affect other people around it. However, in this way, Zhu Dapeng's firearms troops plan would be postponed indefinitely.

Regarding the drilling of iron rods, Huang Laowai, the most famous blacksmith in Xuzhou City, has been working hard for almost two months with three apprentices. So far, only one finished product has been produced. It is less than one meter long, but its thickness is comparable to his own blacksmith's arm. As for the inner diameter of the barrel, it is at least four centimeters thick. Zhu Dapeng held it in his hand and tried it. Even if he did not install butt stocks, doors and other auxiliary components, the weight of the barrel would probably not be less than fifteen kilograms. He could not hold his hands flat and could not be stable at all, let alone expecting this thing to aim at the enemy!

The musket cannot be made, and the cannon I just got was blown into rotten sausages again. What effect can it do just like black gunpowder?! Just as he was looking at the corpse of the gun, he was crying without tears, Zhao Jun used the Sicang Army soldier Li Mubai, who was under the tent, pinched his body and leaned over, covered his mouth with one hand, and discussed in a low voice: "I would like to ask the left governor, if the chief clerk asks about what happened today,"

When is it? He is still thinking about flattering Zhao Jun?! When Zhu Dapeng heard this, he immediately became angry. He raised his eyes and shouted loudly, "You can say whatever you want! Get out of here, I don't want to beat you again today!"

"Yes, yes! The servant will leave now, and then leave now!" Li Mubai was scolded and blushed, and bowed, and turned around and left. He had only walked less than five or so, and suddenly a muffled thunder came from his ears, "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, the cowhide drum erected in the center of the enemy building in the west gate of Xuzhou City was also beaten hard, "dongdong,dongdongdong,dongdongdong,dongdongdongdong."

"It's broken, urgent military information!" Zhu Dapeng's scalp tightened in an instant. He didn't care about any muskets and cannons. He grabbed the strait of the captain Xu Hongsan, and ordered loudly, "Go and find Sun Sanshiyi and Wu Ershiyi, let them gather all their personal soldiers and combat soldiers, and take weapons to the open space at the entrance of the state yamen to stand by!"

Then, he quickly turned his head to his Sicang Yu Changlin and hurriedly ordered, "Go to find Su Changshi and order him to assemble all the auxiliary soldiers, protect the nearby refugees and people, and quickly retreat to the city. Don't clean up anything. The drum beats so quickly, 80% of the imperial soldiers and horses have come!"

"Yes!" "Yes!" Xu Hongsan and Yu Changlin agreed, and ran away. Zhu Dapeng turned his head again and pulled Li Mubai, who had already been scared to the ground, "Go to the city with me, and then you go back to the warehouse and be ready to distribute weapons to your brothers at any time. The Mongolians have hit the doorstep of their homes, and they have not sent all the weapons. Who are you leaving for?!"

"The small ones are not to stay, the small ones are necessary." Li Mubai defended loudly, and was grabbed by Zhu Dapeng and dragged them backwards towards the city.

Although Xuzhou in this era can be regarded as a historical city, its scale is more than a little smaller than the 21st century before Zhu Dapeng traveled. It took him about seven or eight minutes at most, and he dragged Li Mubai to the front of the state yamen. He loosened the latter's wrist, separated the crowd, and continued to rush towards the main hall.

Almost at the same time, Mao Gui, Zhao Junyong, Peng Da, Pan Laizi and Zhang brothers also arrived, and they all ran out of breath and were out of breath. Looking at the Sesame Li sitting upright in the lobby, their faces were full of panic.

Sesame Li himself was more calm than everyone else. Seeing that the core generals under his command had almost arrived, he let go of his clenched fists and said with a stern face: "I'm sorry, everyone, I thought I could have a stable New Year in Xuzhou City, but the Tatar court did not want us to fulfill our hearts. He specially sent a guy named Wulabuhua to wipe us out. The 500 cavalry vans at the forefront had already arrived outside the North Gate. There may be tens of thousands of troops to come one after another?!"

"Ten thousand people, so many?"

"How could it be the north? Didn't the two brothers of the Pei family occupy Xiaopei? Why didn't they even report a letter and let the Tartars kill them from under their noses?"

"Who is Wula Buhua? Is he very powerful?"

Instantly, everyone was quarreling. No one could believe that the people of the Mongolian Yuan court actually came to their noses so quickly. Sesame Li was so frustrated by everyone, and slapped the table hard and explained patiently: "Wula Buhua is a censor of the court, but not entirely a civil servant. You should know that there are very few Mongolians who are willing to study hard. If he can be a censor, it is almost equivalent to a civil servant!"

"Swish! I thought I was a famous general. It turned out to be a useless scholar!" Before Sesame Li could finish introducing the situation, Pan Laizi rubbed his palms and interrupted loudly.

"Yes! What real skills can scholars have? Sorry, Lao Zhao, we are not talking about you!" Several other generals immediately became energetic and were eager to try.

"According to the news our scout found, Xiaopei arrived the afternoon of the previous day!" Sesame Li knocked down the table again and reminded loudly.

"I arrived at Xiaopei the afternoon before yesterday. The two brothers of the Pei family, and more than 40,000 brothers would never be caught in the blink of an eye." Zhang Xiaoer was the most anxious and interrupted loudly again. He was only halfway through his words, but he was suddenly stunned. His mouth was opened and he could no longer close!
