subvert the late Tang Dynasty

Unexpectedly, Zhu Wen just patted the arrow wound on Xu Huaiyu's shoulder with this slap, and the wound that had just been bandaged burst open again. Look at it, I have lost a lot of blood."

Zhu Wen chuckled and said, "See if you will have a long memory in the future. What is it if you retreat the enemy's army? If you have something wrong, even if you wipe out a hundred thousand enemy troops, you will not be able to fight back."

Zhu Wen's words moved Xu Huaiyu to tears, and he swore in his heart: What else is there to say about following such a master?Even if it is going through fire and water, it is worth it.

Jing Xiang also said: "I have repeatedly warned General Xu not to be impulsive, but in a blink of an eye he took 500 people out of the city, but I was terrified. I was afraid that I would not be able to explain to Lord Hou. But who would have thought General Xu managed to destroy seven enemy camps with 500 troops, in my opinion, even Zhao Zilong of the Three Kingdoms period may not be able to do it."

Zhu Wen sighed: "This kind of thing can never be done again. As the saying goes, a thousand soldiers are easy to get and a general is hard to find. From now on, as long as you are a member of my Xuanwu Army, you should not take risks easily. If you are not absolutely sure, you would rather lose the city and keep it." Life, because as long as the person is still there, there is a chance to turn things around, and if the person is gone, everything will be gone.”

All the generals agreed one after another, and all of them, with warm hearts, secretly vowed to swear allegiance to Zhu Wen to the death.

Zhu Wen left a team of people to clean the battlefield, and took the generals back to Daliang City first.

After such a big victory, of course the soldiers in the city should be well rewarded. Zhu Wen also ordered the nearly [-] brothers who died following Xu Huaiyu out of the city to be buried properly, and their families should be given preferential treatment.Military martyrs who have no livelihood can go to the accountant of Bianzhou Prefecture to receive living expenses on a monthly basis.

Xu Huaiyu pulled Wang Tan, who was only 15 years old, and said to Zhu Wen: "Master Hou, this kid has made great achievements in this night attack. He is a disciple of the 'Guanzhong scholar' Zhao Zhang. Even I feel a little ashamed."

Zhu Wen looked at Wang Tan, and was also very happy in his heart. Zhu Wen also had some impressions of Wang Tan. He was a talented person with both civil and military skills.Later, he was named the king of Langya County, and successively served as Jiedu Envoy of Baoyi Army and Jiedu Envoy of Kuang Guojun (formerly Zhongwu Army).

This is a handsome talent who can stand on his own. Of course Zhu Wen is happy, but seeing that Wang Tan, who is only 15 years old now, still has a childish face, of course he needs to practice hard.Zhu Wen smiled and said: "Since brother Xu admires him so much, let him be a small school under your command first, and then he will have a chance to be promoted after he has experienced and practiced. Anyway, he is still young now."

Wang Tan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your promotion, and General Xu for your recommendation."

Zhu Wenwen and Xu Huaiyu looked at each other and smiled knowingly. They both knew that another new star in the battlefield was about to appear. The second master will also lose to Maicheng, let alone other people?

The battlefield is cruel, not many people can be undefeated for a lifetime, and defeat often means death.This is a fact that no one can change. Now that they have embarked on this path, they must go on without fear. No matter what happens, they cannot turn back.In this troubled world, being able to die on the battlefield is also a relief, and it is also a psychological quality that a qualified soldier should possess.

Everything about the future is unknown. Even Zhu Wen, who came from modern society, cannot guarantee that no one will have any accidents on the battlefield.Just like Xu Huaiyu last night, if Zhang Qianyu and Li Si'an hadn't arrived in time, perhaps all Zhu Wen could see now was Xu Huaiyu's cold corpse.

Zhu Wen knew very well that Qin Zongquan suffered a loss in Bianliang twice, and he would definitely not let it go.But the casualties of Qin Zongquan these two times were a bit heavy, and he didn't dare to attack Bianliang again for a while.Perhaps the next time Qin Zongquan attacks Bianliang again, it will be even more violent, but Zhu Zhen, Ge Congzhou, and Zhang Guiba should also be back at that time. It is not yet known who will die, Zhu Wen thought.

At least now I can take a break for a while, and Zhu Wen can also enjoy family happiness with his wife and children at home.

Mrs. Zhu heard that the war had stopped for a while, so she planned to ask Zhu Wen to marry Wei Feng as soon as possible. In the eyes of the old lady, Zhu Wen, as the Jiedu envoy, the envoy, and the Marquis of Peijun, should marry more Only a few wives and concubines will do, and at the very least, it will allow me to have a few more grandchildren.

The wedding date is set in August. These days, Wei Feng seldom goes out, just waiting to go through the door. Wei Feng is really happy. Zhu Wen is not only her savior, but also a sincere gentleman. This is Wei Feng's love for Zhu Wen. Wen's view.

Time passed quickly, and everything in the Xuanwu Army was developing in an orderly manner. A large amount of cotton cloth, good wine, ironware, and coal were produced and sold to nearby towns, and a large amount of grain was bought from other places for emergencies.

Several samples of the firecracker developed by Wu Biao have been produced. Due to the technical guidance of Zhu Wen, he did not get the kind of matchlock that needs to be ignited at the beginning, but directly produced a firearm that is somewhat similar to a modern rifle. pistol.There is no need to load lead bullets and gunpowder, because Zhu Wen thinks that would be too time-consuming.

When the two armies confronted the enemy, if they used matchlock guns and had to load gunpowder and lead bullets from the front barrel, it would simply become a tasteless weapon, and it would be too laborious to engage in three-stage shooting.

But now the firecracker that Wu Biao made according to Zhu Wen's request is quite different. It is the kind of firecracker that can be loaded with bullets. Its shape is similar to a traditional rifle, and it is the kind that can only hold one bullet at a time.After shooting, you can easily change the bullets. The bullets are made of iron, and the warheads are made of lead, which is very powerful.

I reported it to Zhu Wen just after it was made. Zhu Wen was very happy. Although he was just a cook in the 21st century, he had used a real gun. At this time, he picked up a long single-shot rifle.He fired a burst of shots at the targets that had been placed, and all of them hit the bull's-eye, which made the technicians who made the muskets applaud.In their hearts, this so-called "rifle" was made by themselves, and of course they knew that no one had done this kind of thing before.The Hou Ye picked it up and used it, which really made them sigh.

They were all discussing Lord Hou's marksmanship in private.

"You've all seen it, Hou Ye's marksmanship just now is really nothing to say, he hit the bull's-eye after a dozen shots in a row. If I can practice to this level one day, I will definitely be able to kill the enemy when I go into battle. It's like nothing to kill." A person said.

Another person hastily echoed: "Of course, you don't know who our commander-in-chief is, right? He is the reincarnation of the extraordinary Guan Erye, what weapon can't be used?"

What made Zhu Wen even more happy was that two revolvers were researched together with those firecrackers. The pistols were exquisitely made. Comfortable.The only fly in the ointment is that the revolver of the pistol can only be loaded with up to five bullets at a time.

Even so, it is beyond Zhu Wen's imagination. It is not bad to be able to make this kind of revolver in this era of backward technology, but it is not justified to be picky.

For Wu Biao, these two revolvers have condensed a lot of his blood and sweat, and it took three months to finally produce two samples. He was afraid that Zhu Wen would not understand the method used, so he hurried up to explain to Zhu Wen. Fan.

Zhu Wen chuckled, raised his hands, and there were two loud bangs, and two swallows that were parked on a big tree in the distance fell to the ground immediately. Back to his waist.Then he put the hem of the robe down, so that it was impossible to see that he was carrying two secret weapons on his waist.

This time Zhu Wen showed off on purpose, which made those soldiers who were lucky enough to witness this scene even more admirable. Some of them had tried the two revolvers, but they were all cautious, for fear that they might accidentally injure themselves if they misfired. How could they imagine that Zhu Wen played those two pistols like children's toys, but he was so skillful in his movements, how could this make them feel uneasy?

Not to mention the joy in Zhu Wen's heart. This is equivalent to advancing the invention of the revolver by 1000 years. How can this not make Zhu Wen happy?If you suddenly pull out your pistol and shoot in close combat, the enemy will not even have a chance to escape.Zhu Wen seemed to have seen what it would look like in the near future to equip his army with rifles. If it was really possible, almost no force in the world could match him.

Zhu Wen held Wu Biao's hand and said: "I never thought that you could actually make this thing. With this kind of thing, it will be much easier to fight in all directions. If you really fight, no one will be from our Xuanwu Army." Opponent. All of this is due to Brother Wu, and just your small invention is enough to be worth a hundred thousand troops."

Wu Biao stuck out his tongue secretly, and exclaimed: "Be good, a hundred thousand troops? How is this possible? I feel that the power of this kind of thing is not even as powerful as the thunder that shakes the sky. Where can it have such a great power?"

Zhu Wen said with a smile: "Of course, one or two rifles are useless. If this kind of rifle is mass-produced and equipped to all soldiers in the army, their combat effectiveness will be multiplied. In this way, It turns out that the cavalry who dominate the battlefield have no room to fight back when they meet the Musketeers, and the brave cavalry is not even scum in the eyes of the Musketeers."

Wu Biao was also stunned by Zhu Wen's words, and he couldn't react for a while, but he knew very well that in the future, this kind of thing called musket by Zhu Wen would be put into large-scale production, and the battlefield pattern would also change in the future. Ding will change because of this kind of thing, but this is not what Wu Biao wants to consider. His task is to help Zhu Wen develop various firearms, just do his job well.At the very least, he must be worthy of the good conditions and generous salary given by Zhu Wen.
