Iron Dynasty

Ge Yiren looked at the Confucian school under renovation with satisfaction.

Now that he is a scholar of Hongwendian University, he may enter the cabinet in the future, which is already an omen of an extremely talented minister.

It can be said that his purpose of coming to Qingzhou this time has been achieved.

However, he also knew very well that these were given by Xiao Ming, and Xiao Ming could also take them away. In order to keep all this, he had to fulfill his promise to the emperor.

Yu Zhiyong and Ni Kuang looked at the plaque that was hung on it, and the four gilded characters Confucian School on it were particularly eye-catching.

On the side of the two, Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing frowned, not knowing what the three of them meant.

Today, they were declaring the theory of celestial bodies in the East City, and the three invited them to this Confucian school in the name of Grand Master of Hongwendian.

Master Ge, this is a Confucian school. I don't know what it means to invite me here for the second time. The two of us are talking about celestial science, not Confucian classics. Huang Yanqing said first.

With a thick smile on his face, Ge Yiren said, Don't worry, you two, who said that Confucian schools can't teach celestial science? This time, this bachelor's purpose of reopening the school is to adapt to the current situation and be with the light.

Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing looked at each other and became more and more confused.

Yu Zhiyong was impatient, he said directly: You two don't have to worry, the three of us are acting on orders and will not harm you, just the two of you will solve the puzzles for us, so that we can also be in the school. Let the Confucian scholars get rid of the old and welcome the new.

Huang Yanqing's expression softened when he heard the words, and he gradually understood, so he said: It's okay, but now the Confucian scholars and merchants in the city are in a mess, aren't the three great Confucians going to take care of it?

Ge Yiren looked confident, he said, You don't have to worry about it, you can't manage it. These people are very clear about this as a bachelor. Xin, follow the three of us to study Neo-Confucianism.

So that's the case. Huang Yanqing looked at Ge Yiren, thinking that this man is indeed like the legendary man with a thick face and a dark heart, Since this is the case, we will ignore this matter, and now we will discuss this celestial body theory in detail with the three great scholars.

Ge Yiren and the three of them were able to be a great Confucian, and they were also the most intelligent. Once they accepted this theory of celestial bodies, they grasped it very quickly. After Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing finished speaking, they basically understood.

The three of them looked at the sun above their heads and sighed with emotion: I really listen to your words, better than reading ten years of books. It turns out that this is just a big fireball. This day, the dog eats the moon and the moon is blocked.

After a pause, he asked, In order to enlighten the Confucian scholars, we need two telescopes. I hope you two will cooperate, and at the same time, I hope you two can give more examples to prove this.

Master Ge is at ease, as long as the two of you can publicize this matter for the Confucian students, the two of us will know everything. Huang Yanqing was a little excited.

In fact, the common people and businessmen are more likely to believe them, but the Confucian scholars are unwilling to believe them. Now that Ge Yiren has come forward, they are naturally willing to save trouble.

Ge Yiren nodded. Although he agreed to Xiao Ming this time, in his opinion, the promotion of New Confucianism was still heavy. This time New Confucianism basically destroyed the foundation of previous Confucianism.

So in addition to letting Yan Zhengyi and Huang Yanqing assist him, he also planned to go to Qufu in person. As long as the Confucian family spoke up, the matter of Neo-Confucianism was basically done.

Because the final doubts of Confucianism are answered by the Confucian family, and the Confucian family does not deny it, what he says is right.

Thinking of this, he decided to go to Qufu, but he was in no hurry to go, he was waiting for the day when Jinzhou city was broken, so he believed that his trip would be easier, and it was worth the delay. of.

at the same time.

The military workshop sent a group of craftsmen to Pingzhou City. These craftsmen will be responsible for the teaching of new types of artillery shells. After seven days on the road, they arrived in Pingzhou City and brought the first batch of artillery shells and mines to the army.

New type of bomb. Luo Xin's eyes almost fell when he heard the news.

He was born in an artilleryman, and he was very concerned about the artillery shells. As soon as the people from the military workshop came, he was the first to run over, and he walked shoulder to shoulder with the craftsmen of the military workshop along the way, without the appearance of being the leader of an army.

The craftsman in charge of teaching said: This kind of blooming shell is different from the shells fired by mortars. They can be directly used in field guns.

Hearing this, Luo Xin was in a hurry as if he was holding back his urine, his heart was beating wildly, and he hurriedly dragged the craftsman to demonstrate outside the city.

At this time, Lu Fei, Lei Ming and others also came to hear the news, and they all gathered around to watch the excitement.

Although the craftsmen of the military workshop have no official positions, they have always been respected in the army. Even the generals are polite, for fear of offending the people in the military workshop and having problems with their weapons.

In the face of a group of well-known generals in the Great Yu Kingdom, the craftsman remained calm and calm, and he asked the artillerymen to demonstrate the power of the new blooming bullet.

When the explosive bomb exploded in the distance, Luo Xin and others opened their mouths in surprise, and when they saw the power of landmines, they were even more delighted.

Don't say Jinzhou, I can also beat Shengdu. Lu Fei laughed.

Luo Xin sighed and said: This military workshop is really powerful, such shells can be produced, but the price of such shells is not cheap.

That's natural. The price of this fuze is worth the previous shells, and because of the complex structure, the production speed is not fast. You can save it.

Lei Ming said happily; Don't be afraid, when Jinzhou City is broken, there will be as many slaves as you want, so don't worry about no manpower.

We don't worry about barbarian slaves. If they learn this, you will suffer. The craftsman shook his head.

The three of them immediately looked at each other when they heard the words.

After verifying the new type of ammunition, the three pulled out the artillery the next day and started training the use of blooming ammunition. At the same time, a reinforced company consisting of more than 300 people was selected.

What these soldiers received was the laying of mines, and they were in charge of secretly laying mines at night to surprise the barbarian cavalry.

A month later, the first batch of ammunition from the military workshop was in place. After more than a month of production, the military workshop produced 4,000 blooming bombs and 3,500 mines.

In this battle of Jinzhou, they will mix solid shells and grape shells with inclined artillery fire.

On May 18, the Battle of Jinzhou, which had been delayed for a month, started.

When he was at night, Lu Fei ordered the soldiers to arrange a mine array near Jinzhou City, and at the same time dispatched a burst of bombs to the artillery to deal with the cavalry.

After the integration of the three armies, the army left for Jinzhou, and the dark clouds of war shrouded again outside the customs which had been quiet for two months.

Wu Shugu and Bei Shan in Jinzhou sank when they learned that the Great Yu National Army was dispatched to Jinzhou. The failure of Pingzhou City made them dare not look down on this once weak enemy.
