Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 558 The God Leisi under the imperial city... (one more)
At the same time, almost everyone within a range of more than 20 miles around the explosion heard this violent roar.

And the people who were only three or five miles away from here even felt as if they heard thunder that exploded in their ears.

Following the huge explosion, the thick smoke that rose and rolled towards the sky seemed to confirm the changes that occurred below.

Fortunately, this area is relatively remote, otherwise, I really don't know what kind of disturbance will be caused.

After a lot of difficulty, he felt the long humming in his ears gradually disappearing, and the official, who had recovered his hearing, looked at the completely collapsed city wall in front of him.

This is no longer something manpower can compete with. No wonder Xiao Gao said before that the gunpowder made by the Taoist priest surnamed Lin couldn't be put on the table at all.

It seemed that the gate of the Xingqing Mansion, the capital of the Xixia Kingdom, thousands of miles away, would collapse like it did today.

Gao Zhang at the side saw Master Zhao Ji's straight eyes, and after standing beside him, he began to tell the master beside him in a calm and determined tone.

Whether it is the liar Lin or the raw materials for making mines are gunpowder, the official Zhao Ji couldn't help but look at Gao Zhang beside him.

His eyes were full of surprise.

"I also have gunpowder in the Song Dynasty, and I know a little about it as a teacher. The gunpowder produced by gunpowder is used to burn the enemy with smoke, confuse the enemy, and smoke the enemy."

"But I have never heard that gunpowder can have such power to destroy cities and villages."

Facing Master Zhao Ji's shocked expression, Gao Zhang smiled shyly and said in a low voice.

"Master, the reason is mainly because of the formula."

Zhao Ji was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly realized, he raised his hand and hit his forehead.

"So that's the case, as expected, it really deserves to be the trick of a god..."

Hearing Master's sudden expression that I understand very well, I deeply understand, Gao Zhang always felt that Master's attitude seemed a little too much.

However, considering that Master has always been very feudal and superstitious, this behavior is naturally not surprising.

"Then Daoist Peng, I will teach you to use ordinary things to make a fairy boat, so that people can climb high and look far away."

"And this landmine uses only ordinary gunpowder. With a little change, it can have the power of thunder."

"Except for gods, who else can have such means."

Facing Zhao Ji, who has always been a feudal superstitious master, who has fallen into the strategy of self and self at this moment, Gao Zhang can only lower his head against his will.

Yes, Master, what you said is correct.

#####
Fortunately, after the excitement passed, reason returned to the brain again, and the whole person finally had a master Zhao Ji who was a bit of the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

With his eyebrows furrowed and his short beard stroked, he began to think about the production and storage of this new type of gunpowder.

His gaze swept back and forth, and finally fell on Yang Xiong who was standing not far away.

"I remember, you are still in charge of the Imperial City Division now..."

"Officials are slaves." Yang Xiong humbly approached and replied.

"In the past few years, you have handled the affairs of the Imperial City Secretary very well, and I am very satisfied."

"I remember that the Imperial City Division is under the jurisdiction, one is the Investigation Division, and the other is the Ice Well Affairs Division."

"I intend to set up another division, the Division of the God Thunder, responsible for the production of the God Thunder Gunpowder."

After seeing Yang Xiong taking the order, the official Zhao Ji turned his head, looked at his beloved apprentice Gao Zhang, thought for a while and then turned back to confess a few words to Yang Xiong.

It means that this god Leisi has to obey Xiaogao's guidance, and you, Yang Xiong, have to continue to fully cooperate as you are doing now.

With the arrangement and assignment of the master, Gao Zhang also heaved a sigh of relief. It is better for the Imperial City Secretary to handle this matter, at least in terms of confidentiality.

As for letting myself be in charge of the guidance, I also know that it is in line with my own ideas. After all, gunpowder can not only be used as explosives, but also has many other military uses.

If there is the cooperation of the Kaifeng Metal Workshop, Gao Zhang really has the urge to make artillery now.

But after thinking about it, it hasn't come to that time yet, the ancients played with gunpowder weapons more than the later generations.

And if you play too much, it will weaken the real power of gunpowder weapons anyway.

After all, playing with gunpowder is also very expensive. Now, let's think about it first, and come up with some high-quality and cheap gunpowder weapons, which are more suitable for application on the battlefield.

As for things like artillery, it's better to back off a little bit and let the Kaifeng Metal Workshop find a way to cast better quality steel and more comprehensive construction machinery.

Cannons are not necessary yet, but with the black powder explosive kit, the tricks that can be played with gasoline barrels like cannons without conscience can still be done.

Especially when used to deal with the Xixia people, Gao Zhang felt that this thing is definitely more suitable for the northwest border than the artillery that weighs only one or two thousand catties that cannot be moved.

There are not only plains, but also many mountains and mountains. The mobility of the artillery is too low, but the unconscionable artillery will not have such concerns.

#####
The rewards given to Gao Zhang finally came to fruition. He was a Bachelor of the Imperial Academy, knew the imperial edict, and the Privy Council all accepted the decree.

Although in Gao Zhang's official position, there is only one more Hanlin Bachelor, and one Zhizhigao, and there is one missing Longtuge waiting system.

You must know that Hanlin Bachelor, in the Song Dynasty, is still an extremely dignified official position, and he knows how to make orders.

Just these three words, perhaps many people can understand what this means, knowing the meaning of making a patent and drafting an imperial edict.

For other official positions, Jiazhi Zhizhi is called "external system", and only Hanlin bachelors add knowledge and patents, which is called "internal system".

It means that from today onwards, Gao Zhang already has the right to draft edicts according to the order.

Looking at this oracle, and looking at the number one scholar Gao Zhang who was frowning but couldn't hide his surprise, Yang Jian also took the initiative to salute Gao Zhang.

"Congratulations to the number one scholar, this kind of honor is really rare in the world."

"Thank you, Yang Zhongguan. I'm so excited that I don't know what to say. However, at the age of fourteen, I am taking on this important task. I'm afraid there will be many critics in the court?"

Gao Zhang asked Yang Jian in a low voice. Anyway, everyone is so familiar, Yang Jian will not hide it from himself.

"It's natural. In fact, the number one scholar, your will to become an official has been put on hold for a long time."

"But fortunately, no one can doubt your contribution. Whether it is the suppression of the Zhu Clan's Rebellion in the south of the Yangtze River or the establishment of the Municipal Shipping Department in Hangzhou, the taxation has increased significantly in a short period of time."

"Nowadays, Suzhou is planting double-cropping rice, which has greatly increased the grain output in Jiangnan. There were still people who wanted to criticize you, Mr. Zhuangyuan."

"As a result, you borrowed the name of the government to buy grain at market prices, and avoided the sharp drop in grain prices in the south of the Yangtze River from hurting farmers..."

There is also the anger of the officials, which has caused the Japanese country to be beaten bloody by the Fusang country, and the gold and silver that the Fusang country paid tribute to, greatly reducing the pressure on the Song Dynasty currency.

　I have a fever today and feel groggy all day long. I hope I can get better soon. There may not be too many updates in the next few days. I hope you will be considerate. When the body recovers, it will continue to the fifth watch.
