Chapter 260 Bang Tian Lei
Hu Sanniang shook her head and said: "My husband, I have armor, it is just an inner armor. It has been kept in a box. My husband has never seen it."
< br>Zhao Zhen heard this and said: "This inner armor cannot protect the whole body. Let Hou Jian make two good ones specially for Sanniang. How about making both leather armor and iron armor?"
Hu Sanniang said: " It's up to the husband to make the decision." With that said, Hu Sanniang picked up the order written by Zhao Zhen and was about to take someone to choose the horse.
Zhao Zhen was about to speak when he saw the white fox Bai Shuang, who had not been seen for many days, leading two dogs and two tigers, followed by the dirty Li Ji, into the hall.
I saw the white fox walking up to Zhao Zhen with his head raised, pointing at Li Ji and yelling.
Li Ji quickly stepped forward, handed over a piece of bark he was holding in his hand, and said: "Master, the villain followed Bai Shuang and the five of them and walked around in the mist. I found this ginseng.”
Zhao Zhen opened the bark and pushed aside the turf, and it turned out to be a century-old ginseng. It was only the second level, far inferior to the previous one, but it was still rare. baby.
Zhao Zhen first praised the white fox and asked Zhao Yuanli to have the five little ones cleaned. He also rewarded Li Ji and asked him to go home and rest. This fresh ginseng was sent to a medical clinic to be processed and preserved.
After the arrangements were made, Hu Sanniang said: "Ms. sir, this white fox is so smart, it can even hunt for treasures. Dogs and tigers have actually become its followers."
Zhao Zhen said: "Foxes are the smartest, and Baishuang is an auspicious beast. Although they are not as good as two Liangshan fine dogs in fighting, but in terms of perspective, if these spiritual species in the family are tied together, they may not be as good as Baishuang."
Hu Sanniang asked: "Ms. sir, where do you usually keep the white fox?"
Zhao Zhen said: "It's at Madam Cheng Waner's residence. You have seen those two mastiff dogs. They usually patrol the manor. These two tigers have also been raised since childhood. Although they are bigger than these two small dogs, it is a pity that they have never seen blood."
Hu Sanniang said: "Mr. How about keeping the dogs in my room? I have loved hunting since I was a child, and I have become very rare when I see Wangcai. Now I see these two again, and they are easy to hunt on weekdays.”
Zhao Zhen said: "Go and tell the eldest lady, after all, he has been raised in her room."
Hu Sanniang rolled her eyes and said, "I say what I say." After saying that, she got up and went to Cheng Wan'er's residence.
Zhao Zhen ignored it and asked Zhao Xing to take out twenty or thirty kilograms of second-order green water python meat from the ice cellar, steam it until it was half-cooked, and send it over.
After waiting for a long time, Zhao Xing led a villager over with a bucket of meat. Zhao Zhen said hello, and the three of them also went to the house on the top of the mountain.
The seven little ones Bai Shuang, Wu La, Wu Na, and Fu Lu Shou Xi were all in the hall. Zhao Zhen asked Qing Zhu to take out their respective food bowls and put them on the ground, and knocked on the wooden door. Qi Xiao only raised his head and stared at Zhao Zhen.
Seeing Zhao Zhen take meat out of the bucket, he immediately rushed to sit in front of his food bowl. Zhao Zhen started with Bai Shuang, put the meat into the basin, and did not forget to praise it.
This advanced snake meat is not usually enjoyed by these spiritual species. On weekdays, only Zhao Zhen and his wife enjoy it every few days. There are so many good men in the county, and they only give three to five kilograms every month. Only by making a feast every time can all the good men enjoy it.
After finishing this meal of snake meat, the melancholy white fox suddenly became energetic. Depending on the situation, she wanted to go out to hunt for treasures without Zhao Zhen urging her. Zhao Zhen was watching the spirit species eating and playing around downstairs. Bursts of laughter could be heard from upstairs, and it was unclear what the two of them were talking about.
Zhao Zhen was about to go up when he saw Zhao Yuanli coming in and said, "Sir, Officer Tang Long is back. He is waiting in the hall now. There are more than 20 soldiers accompanying him. , guarding more than ten chariots."
Zhao Zhen was overjoyed, got up and walked to the conference hall down the mountain. In my heart, I thought that Tang Long had invited the golden gun class teacher [Golden Gun] Xu Ning.
On the school grounds, more than 20 military men were escorting the car. A woman was holding a little baby in her hand, looking around.
Zhao Zhen took one look, asked Zhao Yuanli to bring drinks to quench the thirst of these soldiers, and hurriedly entered the meeting hall.
I saw Tang Long talking with a big man. As soon as he saw the big man, Zhao Zhen knew that this person was not Xu Ning.
Lin Chong once said that [Golden Gunner] Xu Ning was only six feet five six tall, with a round white face, three thin teeth and a black mustache, and a very thin waist and broad shoulders. There is a big difference in appearance between this man and Xu Ning.
After meeting Li, Tang Long made an introduction. This person turned out to be [Hang Tian Lei] Ling Zhen.
Zhao Zhen asked: "Brother Tang Long, how do you invite brother Ling Zhen?"
Tang Long said: "Official, I met my brother and sister-in-law and stayed there for a few days. Brother Xu Ning was very happy when he heard that I was doing the job at Daguanren's place. He accompanied me around Tokyo for several days."
"I saw that my brother was enjoying himself in Tokyo and it was hard for him to open his mouth. I wanted to find some unlucky heroes in Tokyo, so I asked around like a headless fly for two days. When my brother saw me like this, he told me: Living in Tokyo is not easy. However, this is the most prosperous place. After coming here, few people want to leave. "Tell me not to think too much."
"Although I was not convinced, after asking for two days, it was indeed what my brother said. Unexpectedly, my brother introduced me to many heroes in the army when he saw that I was depressed. We know each other. This is how we got to know each other."
Ling Zhen said: "I heard from Brother Tang Long that there are nearly fifty artillery pieces of all kinds and seven or eight hundred cannons here. They are all villains. I had never seen it before. The villain was dissatisfied and invited Brother Tang Long to go to Jiazhangku to see the Zimu Cannon, Jinlun Cannon, Wind Fire Cannon, Carriage Cannon, and Sky-Hunting Cannon. Unexpectedly, Brother Tang Long said that my cannon was nothing. It can hit far, but the damage is not enough. There is also a bird gun that can be held by one person and can break armor in thirty steps."
"Although the villain didn't believe it, seeing what Brother Tang Long said was so true, he was tempted to come and take a look. Originally, I was the only one who wanted to come, but Brother Tang Long said that this is a powerful weapon for siege, and it's the only one for the high officials. He never wanted to be seen by outsiders. The villain suspected that he was talking nonsense when he was drunk, so he didn't care. I just thought that the way he swore didn't look like a lie. The next day, I went to Teacher Xu's house to find him. Still saying that. "
"The villain resigned from his job. Before leaving, he recruited these trusted craftsmen from outside and used his status to purchase the gunpowder and transport it carefully along the way. "
"Officials, are there really the cannons and blunderbuss that brother Tang Long said?"
Zhao Zhen said: "What brother Tang Long said is true. There are indeed three powerful and invincible general cannons. , ten Folan cannons, thirty mountain-splitting cannons, ten Weiyuan general cannons, five bird blunderbuss, and three-eyed blunderbuss, all of which are made of copper and iron. The cannons of the general's cannon weigh eight pounds. , one shot can make a hole the size of a wheel on the city wall. The Pishan Cannon and the Weiyuan General Cannon are both mortar cannons. They can shoot more than a hundred projectiles at a time, making them invincible."
"Brothers come from afar. It’s hard work, let’s take a rest today, hold a banquet in the evening to refresh our brothers, and take them to the camp to test the artillery tomorrow.”
With that said, he asked Zhao Yuanli to arrange for Ling Zhen and the others to stay while Zhao Zhen left Tang Long talking in the hall.
