After being forced into the palace, I became the tyrant's favorite

It took only three days for Wan Feng and Luo Feng to arrive at the border. The border is what the people call the frontier. In recent years, Su Shilun, that is, Grandpa Wen Yao, has personally guarded it. , especially in terms of strategy and tactics are very farsighted, even Ye Chu has to admire.

The two met Su Shilun and asked him about it. Su Shilun stroked the beard on his chin, and his yellowish face was slightly wrinkled. Over the past ten years, he has also become a bit old.

"The general sent someone to investigate."

"It's fine for the two of us to go. General Su is busy with official duties, so you don't need to be distracted by the two of us." Wan Feng said.

Su Shilun was going to train recruits on the school grounds, and he had to patrol in the afternoon, so it could be said that he was very busy.

"Leave this matter to the two little brothers." Su Shilun clasped his fists and said.

Wan Feng and Luo Feng shook their heads one after another, Wan Feng said: "After the two of us find out the situation, we will go to the capital. If it is true what the foreigner said, we will have to trouble the general to go back with us."

Su Shilun frowned slightly, and Wan Feng explained: "This is an order from the master."

Although Su Shilun had doubts, although he didn't really want to leave the frontier, he had to carry out the order given by the emperor.

The two went to the outside of the pass, and returned to the frontier camp after a day of investigation.

Wan Feng said: "Today my two brothers went to investigate. The sky outside the pass was filled with yellow sand, and besides that, a large number of people could be vaguely seen. Luo Feng and I went secretly to check."

It can be said that the desert area is very unfavorable to killers. The desert is empty and there is basically no place to hide. When they see each other, maybe the person on the other side also sees them.

"Are they wearing military uniforms?" Su Shilun asked.

The two weren't too close, and with the low visibility around them, they could only see a rough idea. Some people were riding horses or camels, and they didn't seem to be wearing military uniforms.

After the three chatted, Luo Feng planned to check again the next day.

Su Shilun agreed: "That's right, you can't conclude that it's a soldier of the Great Zhou just because it happened once."

"Besides, when you came, you said that the Great Zhou will raise troops to attack the foreign races, so you only need to see if they are still heading in our direction tomorrow to know their approximate identities."

The two of them nodded their heads when they felt that this method was feasible.

The two went to the outside of the pass just after dawn, and when they came back an hour later, they told Su Shilun what they saw, "It's a group of people, at least hundreds of people, and each of them is wearing military uniforms. It looks like they are going to a foreign country. "

Su Shilun guessed: "That should be the vanguard of the Great Zhou."

"Most likely."

Wan Feng said: "General, Luo Feng and I set off for the capital immediately, and the general will go with us."

"Okay." Su Shilun stroked his green beard and thought for a while, "This general hasn't gone back for many years."

The two were silent.

……

Wen Yao has been staying in the palace for the past two days, and the business of the tailor shop is more flourishing than he imagined.But what worries him even more now is the credibility of the envoys from foreign countries. If there is such a thing, combined with what Ye Chu said, he is vaguely worried.

But if it was a foreign country who lied to them, what was their intention?

Inspire the conflict between Da Chen and Da Zhou?

Ye Chu might have thought about meeting the emperor of the Great Zhou, Wen Yao had a premonition that he would face a battle in the near future, and what might happen in the war.

Wen Yao suddenly remembered that dream. He was afraid that something would happen to Ye Chu, so he couldn't help but think about what to use as weapons for the soldiers to fight. Su Yunmian once made a gun and a catapult, so is it possible for her to make one? □□.

That’s right, it’s □□, Wen Yao remembers it was in a parallel space, but it was called □□ at that time, and □□□ was born in the Spring and Autumn Period, but it was always used in firecrackers, etc., and it was only used in military/military warfare in Tang Dynasty Thinking of this, Wen Yao immediately called Wang Cai in. Wang Cai was in the imperial garden, and immediately ran to Wen Yao when he heard the sound.

Wen Yao looked at him and asked, "Brother Wang, I have something to ask you."

"Little master, just open your mouth." Wang Cai said; "Your subordinates will definitely not hide anything if they know."

"I'm about to open a shoe store, can we set off firecrackers on the opening day?" Wen Yao said after some words.

"The firecrackers can be played, but there is a quantity requirement." Wang Cai didn't think too much, only thought that this time the little master wanted to be special.

"What rule?" Wen Yao asked.

Wang Cai answered in detail one by one. There were already firecrackers in Dachen, but they were not as loud as those in later generations.

Ordinary people are only allowed to put a dozen for weddings, and if the shop is open, generally only two dozen are allowed.

After Wen Yao found out about it, he felt that the possibility of making it into a movie had increased a lot.

That night, he went to the imperial study and talked about it with Ye Chu. Ye Chu didn't show a curious expression, and Wen Yao didn't think much about it. He just thought it was his steady performance.

However, there was a storm in Ye Chu's heart. If he hadn't known that Su Yunmian had passed away more than ten years ago, he would have thought that Su Yunmian had always been alive and kept some kind of connection with Wen Yao. Otherwise, why would Wen Yao Put forward what Su Yunmen mentioned 19 years ago.

Ye Chu looked at him, Wen Yao noticed something strange, and a series of memories flashed in his mind. He had guessed that Su Yunmian was not from this era before, and now he is even more certain of this guess.

At the same time, I think of the dream from last time. It would be great if I could dream it again, at least next time I will see what my mother writes on the computer no matter what.

He guessed and recalled that it was strange for his mother to type on the keyboard in his ward.

He still remembered that the first time he dreamed of his mother and brother, his mother was crying out of breath, but in the last dream, his mother was very calm.

Wen Yao had a bold guess that perhaps the author of this book was his mother.

But what does that have to do with his being in this book?

Wen Yao couldn't figure it out.

Ye Chu looked at him and asked, "It's far from far away to know what is needed to make □□?"

"I know." As Wen Yao said, he took out a quill pen from the hollowed-out pen holder inlaid with gold and jade, and spread rice paper on the case.

Wen Yao remembered that □□ was □□, which was made by mechanically mixing potassium nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur. Dachen currently had firecrackers, which meant that these raw materials could be found.

Then you only need to combine the gun with the catapult to double its power, or even several times.

Wen Yao said: "At this time, the proportion of ingredients required is three times that of before, made into a ball, and then thrown with an improved catapult."

"There needs to be a lead wire here on the ball, which is used to ignite the fire."

In this way, Jianyi's cannon car can be made.

Da Chen's catapult was made of wood, but the current cannon cart needs metal. As for which metal to use, Wen Yao planned to use steel and copper to make the cannon body.

Ye Chu nodded in agreement after hearing his thoughts.

The author has something to say: Thank you for your support.
