Iron Dynasty

PS: Today, many book friends give the snails a reward. To be honest, the snails are very moved. At least they are with you when the snails are lost. Not to mention, the sixth is more.

Musket technology? Seriously?

King Yan stood up from his seat and walked towards Zhan Xingchang, he had to be excited.

Exactly! Zhan Xingchang said.

According to the information obtained by the Secret Guard, King Zhao had already mastered the technique of rolling iron to forge an arquebus, so this technique of forging an arquebus was no longer a secret to the Great Yu Kingdom.

It pays to trade a not-so-secret technology for some benefit.

Although King Yan and King Liang did not seem to have acted rashly, they have always been eager for firearm technology, and most of the spies caught in Qingzhou were from Yandi and Liangdi.

From this, he judged that King Yan must be very likely to use this matchlock gun forging technology.

With a smile on his face, Zhan Xingchang said, Now, His Royal Highness King Yan should believe in His Highness's sincerity, but King Qi has left all his housekeeping skills to Dian.

Then how are you going to hand over the firearm technology to this king? King Yan asked.

It's very simple. Your Highness can send craftsmen to Qingzhou. We will definitely teach these craftsmen how to make arquebuses. When these craftsmen return to Yandi, His Highness can make arquebuses by themselves. Zhan Xingchang said.

King Yan's heart was finally messed up, and now his determination is starting to waver, is he trying to restrain Xiao Ming, or the technique of arquebus? These two questions made his anxious heart uncomfortable.

After pondering for a while, he said: It's better for your envoy to hide in Bozhou and live for a few days, and let the king think for two days before answering.

Since that's the case, let's go down. I hope Your Highness can make a wise decision. Zhan Xingchang said with a smile.

King Yan squeezed out a smile, and he surrendered to Zhan Xingchang.

Zhan Xingchang understood and turned to leave.

Watching Zhan Xingchang leave, King Yan suddenly said, Come out.

As soon as his voice fell, the fourth prince and two young people walked out of the cabinet in the main hall.

The older one of the two young people said, Dad, is this still a choice? Of course it is the matchlock gun, as long as we have the matchlock gun, we can compete for the world, otherwise even if Xiao Ming is destroyed, there will still be King Zhao. , King of Liang, King of Wei, and King of Chu in the south, how could we be their opponents at that time?”

That's right, Dad, this King Wei and Xiao Ming have a grudge, but this King Wei also has a grudge against us. Helping him kill Xiao Ming, isn't that helping him? In Erchen's opinion, it's better to let Xiao Ming this time. The King Wei that Ming tortured was half-dead, but Xiao Ming couldn't completely annex Wei Di. As a result, Xiao Ming's strength could not expand rapidly, and this King Wei was also severely damaged. Another young man said.

The fourth prince's opinion was different from the two, he said, Uncle, you must not fall into Xiao Ming's trap. This time, the combination of King Wei is an opportunity to eliminate Xiao Ming in one fell swoop. Otherwise, if Xiao Ming is given a period of time, this world will No one is his opponent, and letting him go at this time is undoubtedly a danger to raising tigers.

King Yan paced back and forth, and he said, Your words all make sense, so now this king is also very embarrassed. If you take a wrong step this time, Yan will be doomed.

Father, don't hesitate anymore. If you don't do it for yourself, the world will be punished. If there are no muskets, it will not be difficult for King Zhao and King Liang to destroy Yan. After all, there are barbarians behind them, but if we are equipped with muskets and artillery, it will be different. There may be a chance at that.”

Yes, Father, you have to consider the overall situation.

King Yan's two sons tried their best to persuade him.

The fourth prince wanted to interrupt, but when he saw the indifferent eyes of the two, he stopped talking.

This time, although he fled from Chang'an to Bozhou, the honor that once belonged to the prince is no longer there. Now he lives in the palace of Yan Wang. Although he is called the fourth prince, he no longer has the right to be a prince.

And King Yan's two sons also treated him badly many times, which made him gradually understand that he was just an outsider.

In the face of his son's harassment, King Yan became more and more moved, but he kept a trace of calm, he said, Tomorrow, call the civil and military officials to discuss this matter.

After that, King Yan turned and left, he wanted to calm down and think about it carefully.

There were only the second son of King Yan and the fourth prince left in the palace. This was the eldest son of King Yan who said yin and yang: Fourth prince, you will not be involved in the affairs of our country of Yan. After all, you are the prince of the Great Yu Kingdom, you should go to Chang'an Ask about Chang'an.

No, maybe the Thirteenth Prince can seal a piece of territory for you when he is happy, said the second son of King Yan.

The fourth prince's face turned white and then black, and now he finally understands what it means to rely on others.

The two laughed for a while, then turned around and walked out. Before leaving, they deliberately bumped into the fourth prince.

Looking at the arrogant appearance of the two, there was a flash of fierceness in the eyes of the fourth prince. He had never experienced such humiliation before, clenching his fists tightly, he secretly vowed to clean up the two of them.

The next day, King Yan summoned hundreds of civil and military officials to inquire about the envoys from Qi and Wei. To King Yan’s surprise, all the officials chose arquebuses. However, in order to limit Xiao Ming’s growth, the ministers also gave him one. Very insidious idea.

In the afternoon of the same day, King Yan summoned Zhan Xingchang again.

This king has decided to agree to King Qi's conditions. King Yan said.

Zhan Xingchang was overjoyed, Your Highness, this is really a wise decision.

King Yan waved his hand and continued: But this king has one more condition.

Your Highness, please speak?

From now on, King Qi must stop annexing Wei and maintain the existing city. Otherwise, even if we don't need musket skills, we will attack Qi together with King Wei. King Yan said.

Zhan Xingchang's brows furrowed, this King Yan is too insidious and cunning, he is preparing to take advantage of it, and at the same time prevent Xiao Ming from completely occupying Wei and strengthening his strength.

This question was too important, and Zhan Xingchang was unable to reply for a while. He said: This matter can only be discussed with His Highness after returning to Qingzhou after going to Zhaodi.

This king is not in a hurry. King Yan made up his mind about Zhan Xingchang.

When Zhan Xingchang heard the words, he nodded and turned to leave.

Back at the hotel, Zhan Xingchang immediately asked the police to send back King Yan's conditions. At the same time, he was preparing to leave for Chang'an. This was the last stop of his trip. As long as he persuaded King Zhao not to participate in the matter, he would Really relieved.

At that time, King Yan will be divided again, and only Liang and Wei will be left, and King Yong of Liang is resisting, so there is nothing to be afraid of, and only King Wei will remain.

Therefore, the most important thing now is King Zhao's attitude. After all, King Zhao is the strongest vassal king besides Xiao Ming.

After tidying up, Zhan Xingchang and his party set off for Chang'an. At the same time, Zhan Xingchang's achievements in Yandi were also passed on to Qingzhou, and Xiao Ming's final attitude will determine whether there will be a big melee in the north.
