My son A Fei has the appearance of a sword master

Chapter 130 Weaponry and Martial Arts Appraisal List in the [-]th Year of Chenghua

When the Southwest Military Region and the Southern Military Region achieved great success in their first battles in southern Xinjiang and got off to a good start, the three major military regions in the north also advanced with great success, almost leveling all the way.

Compared with the mountainous terrain in the south, the north is flat and railways are easier to build. Therefore, the three major military regions in the north receive more powerful logistical support.

Large tracts of grassland were occupied by the Ming Dynasty, and large groups of Tatar prisoners were taken back to the Ming Dynasty as hard labor.

Regarding the captured enemy population, Li Tianxin gave Zhu Jianshen an idea to establish a "work-point system."

According to the hard labor's daily labor, a sum of work points corresponding to the wages of workers in the Ming Dynasty was recorded. When the hard labor's accumulated work points reached a certain amount, he could regain his freedom.

After regaining freedom from hard labor, you can choose to return to your hometown, or you can choose to settle in the Ming Dynasty and become a citizen of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, it's not bad. By the time they earn enough work points, their hometown has already become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and they will also be the people of the Ming Dynasty when they return home.

But it's not that easy to earn enough work points, because hard laborers need to exchange work points for their daily meals, clothes, and daily necessities.

In the process of doing hard labor, those who violate the rules and regulations of the mine site will have their work points deducted.

Those who attempt to escape and are caught will have to clear their work points for the first time and start over from scratch.

If there is a second time, if you are caught, your qualifications for obtaining work points will be cancelled, and you will be reduced to life-long hard labor.

After escaping for the third time, he was caught and executed directly in public to serve as a warning to others.

Needless to say, if you are not caught after escaping, consider yourself lucky.

After careful calculation, Li Tianxin set a work point quota that was almost equivalent to the money a Ming Dynasty citizen could save after deducting expenses after working for 20 years.

……

The five major military regions worked step by step and fought steadily. The victory reports flew back to the capital like snowflakes, and the whole court was filled with joy.

In just four months, the entire territory of Annan fell under the control of the Ming army.

The time was ripe, so Li Tianxin immediately organized a group of factory fans and personally led the team to Annan to teach them how to collect rubber on the spot.

Three months later, when the knowledge to be imparted was basically completed, he directly built rubber workshops on the Red River and Mekong River in Annan to produce various rubber products.

All required machinery and equipment are all customized from the Guangxi factory branch.

In addition to the rubber workshop, a machinery factory was also established to produce various machinery on site.

In April of the ninth year of Chenghua, the [-]-bar bicycle and the three-wheeled bicycle came out, which gradually changed the way people travel in the Ming Dynasty.

Rubber-tired carriages also completely eliminated wooden wheeled carriages, greatly increasing the transportation efficiency of the Ming Dynasty.

Under the base of this kind of carriage, "steel poles" and shock absorber springs are installed, which makes the carriage no longer bumpy and saves more horsepower.

At this time, Li Tianxin had already returned to Fenyang and began to tinker with generators in the factory with a group of science talents he had trained over the years.

As rubber was gradually shipped back to China, factories began to mass-produce wires to prepare for the arrival of the electrical age.

More than a year later, the Ming army had reached the territory of the Kingdom of Malacca, which would later become Malaysia, and further down was Singapore.

I believe that it won’t be long before the entire Southeast Asia will become the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

On the north side, all the land from the Taihir Prairie in the west to the Hulunbuir Prairie in the east was turned into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

The territory of the Ming Dynasty directly increased by more than 550 million square kilometers. The current territory of the Ming Dynasty has reached a terrifying more than 500 million square kilometers.

However, compared with the more than 2000 million square kilometers of the Yuan Dynasty, there is still a certain gap. The current population of the Ming Dynasty cannot keep up, and the territory is too large to be of any use.

When the population develops, it will not be too late to continue to expand the territory to the west. By then, there must be only one Ming Dynasty in the entire Eurasian continent.

No matter what country or race you are from, you can only live a good life if you become a citizen of the Ming Dynasty.

When the Northeast Military Region reached Hulunbuir, they directly turned south and teamed up with the Goryeo brothers to destroy the Jurchen army in Jianzhou. All civilians were reduced to hard labor to develop the Northeast for the Ming Dynasty.

This area is quite rich in natural resources. Timber, coal, oil, hardware and other minerals are all resources needed for the development of the Ming Dynasty.

Even though the Jurchen population in Jianzhou was not large, Zhu Jianshen had no choice but to order all captives from the Tatar Wala Uliangha and other Mongolian tribes to be sent to the northeast.

The next relatively important step is oil, which must be exploited more intensively.

The oil resource reserves in the Northeast account for half of the entire Ming Dynasty. Once the three oil fields in Daqing, Jilin, and Liaohe are exploited, the development speed of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably reach a higher level.

……

The country's development is booming, but all this seems to have little to do with the people in the world.

The development of technology only changes their lifestyle and gives them more channels to make money.

Because technology is changing with each passing day and the development speed is so fast, they have not even caught up with the changes of the times.

Therefore, people in the martial arts world should practice martial arts, and they should still strive for fame and profit.

In October of the ninth year of Chenghua, the "Ranking of Weapons Spectrum" compiled by Zhuge Shenjun and Bai Xiaosheng's master and apprentice came out, triggering discussions throughout the world.

There is almost no controversy among the top five people in the weapon spectrum. The focus of controversy is mainly concentrated after No. 5.

The weapon spectrum ranking is like this...

Ranked No. [-]: Qingfeng Sword, the sword worn by the "Sword God" Li Tianxin, was given by You Canglong, the owner of the Cangjian Villa. He once killed [-] traitors in one battle. He deserves the title of No. [-] in the world. When he was born, Li Tianxin, the way of swordsmanship was as long as the night.

Ranked second: Shenlong Sword, the sword of "Dragon Hero" Long Aotian. This sword is as mysterious as its owner. No one in the world knows where the Dragon Warrior came from and where he went. It is Shenlong See the beginning but not the end.

Ranked third: Canglang Sword, a sword worn by headhunter Shen Lang. Shen Lang made his debut and killed and captured dozens of criminals in a few years. After getting to know the sword god, his martial arts improved rapidly. He once traveled the world together with the Dragon Warrior, punishing and eradicating rapists. evil.

Ranked fourth: The Magic Magnet Gourd, the portable weapon of Panda'er, the "Drunken Man", is made from the magic magnet of the East China Sea, and is called "Qiankun in a Bag". It can be called the nemesis of hidden weapons in the world. When used with Panda's drunken fist, it has infinite power. .

Ranked fifth: Tianji Rod, the weapon carried by "Old Man Tianji" Sun Baifa. It is ever-changing and has many magical uses. The secrets cannot be leaked. No one knows its magical uses except the old man Tianji himself.

These are the top five in the weapons spectrum. The original number one in the world has become fifth.

After Li Tianxin invented Drunken Fist, he basically never used it. Instead, it was Panda'er who carried it forward.

The subsequent rankings were no different from the original version, except that the tenth ranked expert was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Dragon Phoenix Ring" Shangguan Jinhong ranked sixth, "Xiao Li Feidao" Li Xunhuan ranked seventh, "Songyang Iron Sword" Guo Songyang ranked eighth, and "Silver Halberd Wenhou" Lu Fengxian ranked ninth.

The weapon ranked tenth in the weapon spectrum is called the "Bone Poison Sword". Its owner is the Sword God's only direct disciple, the "Deadly Swordsman" Jing Wuming.

Because he is so similar to Yan Shisan and fits perfectly with the Thirteen Life-Destroying Swords, Li Tianxin gave Yan Shisan's Bone Poison Sword to him for use.

Jing Wuming is just 15 years old this year, but his martial arts skills are already unrivaled by few, especially after he mastered Sword No. 14.

In fact, Jing Wuming can be said to be a person seriously underestimated by Bai Xiaosheng. Although he has had brilliant achievements in the world over the years, he is still too young after all.

In addition, he had never played against the people ranked in front of him, so Bai Xiaosheng ranked him tenth.

In terms of strength, Jing Wuming, who is at the seventh level of Hunyuan Zhenqi, and with the fourteen life-threatening swords, Shangguan Jinhong, who has not yet reached the realm of "no ring in hand, but ring in heart", may not be his opponent.

When Li Xunhuan faced Jing Wuming, he didn't even have a chance to use his sword, let alone the others behind him.

This weapon list is highly praised by people in the world, but in the eyes of the first-level masters in the world, it is undoubtedly a joke.

Because Bai Xiaosheng does not exclude female masters, does not exclude masters who do not use weapons, does not exclude masters of evil sects, and does not exclude masters of the imperial court, then what is the meaning of this ranking?
It's just Bai Dao Wulin's self-pleasure.

In view of this, Li Tianxin personally took charge and released a separate "Martial Arts Evaluation List" in the name of Renyi Villa, whose rankings were much more comprehensive.

Ranked first: "Sword God" Li Tianxin.Ranked second: "Flying Fairy from Heaven" Bai Feifei.

Ranked third: "Dragon Hero" Long Aotian.

Ranked fourth: "The Wonderful Hero of China" Shen Lang.

Ranked fifth: "The Drunken Man" Panda'er.

Ranked sixth: "Dragon Protector Patriarch" Wynn.

Ranked seventh: "Wind Chaser" Bai Ling.

Ranked eighth: "Feng Qingcheng" Feng Qingcheng.

Ranked ninth: "Princess Changle" Zhu Qiqi.

Rank [-]: Three thousand feet of white hair.

Ranking eleven: "Happy King" Chai Yuguan.

Ranking [-]: "Old Man Tianji" Sun Baifa.

Ranking [-]: "Deadly Swordsman" Jing Wuming.

Rank [-]: Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva

Ranking [-]: "Dragon and Phoenix Ring" Shangguan Jinhong

Ranking [-]: "Wind and Thunder Palm" Sun Tianfeng.

Rank seventeen: Gui Yinger.

Ranking [-]: "Fairy Yunmeng" Wang Yunmeng.

Ranking [-]: "The Prince with Thousand Faces" Wang Lianhua.

Ranking [-]: "Little Li Flying Knife" Li Xunhuan.

Ranking Zhu Jianshen third is a way of giving him face. Otherwise, with his martial arts skills, he would be ranked seventh at most, which would be slightly better than Wan Zhen'er.

Otherwise, let alone Shen Lang Panda'er, even Bai Ling can beat him.

However, when they competed with Zhu Jianshen, they never defeated him, but their defeat was more "real", and Zhu Jianshen didn't find any problems.

I understand everything about human nature.

After Li Xunhuan, there were also Leng Da, Shanzuo Tianyin, Song Li, Jin Buhuan, Five Poison Boys and the Seven Great Masters in the Jianghu.

"Songyang Iron Sword" Guo Songyang has been ranked beyond thirty. Master Zhuge Shenjun and Bai Xiaosheng were slapped in the face.

However, there is also a group of people in the world who are willing to support the master and apprentice and express their approval of the weapons spectrum.

In their mouths, the weapons catalog and the martial arts evaluation list are two different things. One is mainly about weapons, and the other is mainly about combat power. They are not the same thing.

This can be regarded as a fig leaf for the master and apprentice.

The seven masters in the original plot either did not use weapons, were women, or had already died when Bai Xiaosheng established the weapons catalog, so they were not included.

But in Li Tianxin's martial arts evaluation list, they were all on the list.

There is no doubt that this martial arts evaluation list is more comprehensive than the weapons spectrum ranking.

But precisely because it was so comprehensive, it caused an uproar in the world.

Because people in the world have discovered that they have never even heard of some of the people who are famous and ranked high on the list.

For example, the white hair is three thousand feet long, and the "Dragon Protector Patriarch" Hua En, the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva, and the "Wind and Thunder Palm" Sun Tianfeng and so on.

But most people don't know, but there is always a small group of people who know. Only those who know the inside story know how terrifying this martial arts evaluation list is.

Because it is too comprehensive, and the ranking achieves the greatest degree of fairness, this is what is scary about it, it represents a pervasive intelligence network.

Most people don't know who Baifa Sanqianzhang is, but the older generation like Sun Baifa, Sun Tianfeng, and Gui Ying'er are familiar with this name.

When they were still young, this person had been famous in the world for decades. Now, nearly 60 years later, this person is already over a hundred years old, but Li Tianxin still included her.

Obviously, the people on the martial arts evaluation list are all still alive. For example, the "Plum Blossom Bandit", who was extremely skilled in martial arts but was confirmed to be dead, was not included.

That means that the man with three thousand white hair who has been famous for 80 years is still alive today, which is quite terrifying.

But what surprised the older generation of experts even more was that Baifa Sanqianzhang could only be ranked tenth, and almost all of the first nine were rising stars under the age of 30.

Of course, the older generation would not think that the Sword God would be an ignorant child. Just the fact that he knew the existence of Baifa Sanqianzhang could prove that he was not ignorant, but surprisingly well-informed.

At least they really didn't know who the "Dragon Protector Patriarch" Huai En was, but Li Tianxin did.

Since he dares to line up like this, it means that the top nine masters must be powerful enough to overwhelm the older generation.

Of course Li Tianxin dared to rank like this, because the skills of the top nine people all started in a century, and they all practiced peerless martial arts that were first-class in the ancient dragon martial arts world.

Even if they lack combat experience, with their terrifying cultivation and peerless martial arts, ordinary masters are basically not on the same level as them.

Especially Zhu Qiqi, she seems to be the weakest among them, but she is learning the "Lang Qing Concubine Yi Sword". This sword technique is almost no longer in the category of ordinary sword techniques, but the sword control technique at the level of immortals. .

Even if she has no actual combat experience, with her skill that spans over a hundred years and her superb sword-wielding skills, it shouldn't be a big problem to defeat Baifa Sanqianzhang.

Besides, this woman with three thousand feet of white hair would never show up to compete with others for fame.

Li Tianxin ranked her just for the sake of "fairness and justice", and put Zhu Qiqi in front of her, so there was no problem.

Although there are also very few people who know about "Wind and Thunder Palm" Sun Tianfeng and the Great Joyous Female Bodhisattva, at least more people know about it than the people who know about the three thousand feet of white hair.

Sun Tianfeng was born in Sunjiabao. Nearly 40 years ago, she fell in love with Gui Ying'er and had a falling out with her family, leading her to a distant place. Shangguan Jinhong's generation basically knew about it.

The Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva is not well-known in the Central Plains, but she is famous among the Miao people in Yunnan. The Five Poison Boy of Jiledong is her godson.

The most controversial ranking on the martial arts review list is the "Deadly Swordsman" Jing Wuming.

He actually outperformed many older generation masters and ranked No. 13 on the martial arts evaluation list.

This 15-year-old boy was pushed to the forefront because of his master's bad taste.

However, he could also guess the master's thoughts. He followed the master's path. His martial arts skills needed to be tempered in battles in order to remain diligent.

The martial arts evaluation list continues to ferment, and Jing Wuming is quietly waiting for the challenger to come to Renyi Villa.

He knew there would be many people who would be unconvinced and come to challenge him, so he didn't go anywhere.

He will use his strength to tell the entire world that Master's martial arts evaluation list is absolutely fair and impartial, without any favoritism.

Among the masters ranked after twenty and before thirty, almost no one was dissatisfied with Jing Wuming, because they happened to be the group of people who knew Jing Wuming.

Those who were not convinced by Jing Wuming were those who came down from Guo Songyang.

In this era, they are also rising stars. Although they are all masters, they are not as taken for granted as they would be more than ten years later.

But no matter what, they didn't believe that a 15-year-old boy could reach such a high position, so they had to verify it.
