I am the carpenter king

Seeing the King of Shu with a bad face, several people present were a little embarrassed, but Zhu Xieyuan had a serious face.I saw him salute the king of Shu, and said in a respectful tone: "My lord understands the righteousness deeply, and it is really a blessing for the country and the country. I believe that the emperor will be very happy to know the news. When the war is over, I will go to the emperor Chen , Pray for the prince."

Taking a deep look at Zhu Xieyuan, the king of Shu seemed a little angry.His face darkened and he said: "Master Zhu, you can't say that. This king is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he has received the emperor's favor. How can you show your merit by doing this for the court!"

"My lord's words are wrong. Since he has made contributions to the imperial court, how can he not go to the court? As the chief envoy of Sichuan, he is in charge of the political affairs of a province. This is his duty." Zhu Xieyuan's expression changed, His face suddenly became serious, and he stood upright, with an air of defying power.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, the King of Shu's face turned red immediately, as if he was very angry, and the atmosphere became tense.After a long time, the King of Shu flicked his sleeves, and said rather displeasedly: "Since it is the matter that Master Zhu is in charge of, it is naturally inconvenient for me as a vassal king to intervene. Master Zhu can make up his own mind!"

After some conversation, the atmosphere became a bit strange, and the king of Shu didn't stop and turned to leave.The people present didn't know what to do. Seeing that Zhu Xieyuan asked everyone to leave, these people didn't stay and soon dispersed. [

"Old fox, you know how to be a man!" Pointing at Zhu Xieyuan, Lin Zai came to his side with a smile on his face, and said playfully.

Looking at Lin Zai with a innocent face, Zhu Xieyuan said with some reluctance: "I am as clear as water and as bright as a mirror. I really don't know what you are talking about!" Big wrong.

Naidi sighed, and Zai Lin said angrily: "Don't think that you are the only one who is smart, and the old man is not stupid. You not only gave the King of Shu a step down, but also explained to the court on behalf of the King of Shu. Do you think I can't see it? "

He looked at Lin Zai in surprise.Zhu Xieyuan couldn't believe it, and said in a voice full of surprise, "I can't believe it, you actually saw it? It's really unexpected!" After speaking, Zhu Xieyuan strode away, and walked not far away Hearing Lin Zai's shout, Zhu Xieyuan hurriedly quickened his pace.

"Commander, someone is asking to see you outside. They say they are from Chengdu!" The orderly strode away from the tent, saluted Sun Chuanting, and said respectfully.

Glancing at the messenger, Sun Chuanting didn't say anything, but looked at Yuan Keli who was sitting on the side, and said with a smile: "Master Yuan, it seems that the people in the city are still in a hurry, we will send someone here as soon as we arrive Already!"

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Yuan Keli said in a deep voice: "Master Sun, I don't think so. I think the people in Chengdu are worried about us. They came here in such a hurry, but they just sent someone to remind us. Our scouts have already investigated After that, Chengdu City is only surrounded on two sides. It is no problem to want to go in and out."

"Worried about us? Remind us? What do you mean?" Sun Chuanting looked at Yuan Keli in surprise and asked hesitantly, obviously his head hadn't turned the corner yet.

Sighing softly, Yuan Keli naturally knew why Sun Chuanting couldn't think of it, so he had no choice but to say: "Our scouts came back to report, and there are about 10 rebels! They are worried that we are outnumbered, and our rivals are rushing in. They sent people to remind us. this matter."

Touching the sword at his waist, Sun Chuanting didn't know what mood he was in now.The feeling in my heart can be said to be very complicated.Being underestimated seems to be very atmospheric, and at the same time, I think it's funny, but I really don't know what to say.

After waving at the messenger, Yuan Keli also said rather helplessly: "Let him in!"

Not long after, a general of the Ming army walked in quickly, bowed to Sun Chuanting, and said loudly: "The humble general of Chengdu, Zhou Sisheng, has met two adults. The humble official is under the order of Mr. Zhu, the chief envoy of Sichuan." , he came to welcome the two adults!"

Nodding slowly, Yuan Keli suddenly showed a smile on his face, and said in a cheerful voice: "Master Zhu has a heart! What else do you want to come this time? Make it clear at once!"

Zhou Sisheng was slightly taken aback.I didn't expect this old man to talk like this, but he felt that it was very suitable for him.Gently cupping his fists, Zhou Sisheng said in a deep voice: "My lord, there are 2 defenders in the city, and Qin Liangyu, the envoy of Shizhu Propaganda, is also in the city. Master Zhu asked the humble official to ask, what is your plan? What do you need in the city?" Cooperate?"

Glancing at Zhou Sisheng, Sun Chuanting and Yuan Keli looked at each other, and said in a deep voice: "Go back and tell Mr. Zhou that we will launch an attack tomorrow, and you can choose a time to rush out. But remind you, when we finish firing the cannon come out."

It seemed that Sun Chuanting's tone was not very good, and Zhou Sisheng's expression suddenly became a little ugly, but he knew that he was not qualified to say anything.Facing Sun Chuanting and Sun Chuanting, Zhou Sisheng said in a deep voice, "I understand!" Zhou Sisheng turned around after speaking, obviously preparing to leave.

"General Zhou, wait a minute!" Yuan Keli seemed to be aware of Sun Chuanting's displeasure, obviously because of what he said just now.But now is not the time to explain, he hurriedly called Zhou Sisheng to stop, and said in a deep voice: "Go back and tell Master Zhu that I am the one here, and this old man is Yuan Keli. Let Master Zhu rest assured that the rebels will definitely be defeated in the first battle tomorrow!"

Giving a salute to Yuan Keli, Zhou Sisheng said respectfully: "Yes, my lord! I must bring the words to you!"

When Zhou Sisheng left, Yuan Keli smiled wryly and said to Sun Chuanting: "Chuanting, old man!"

"Master Yuan, needless to say, Chuanting lost his temper! The emperor sent Chuanting out this time. Chuanting must not embarrass the emperor. He must attack the city." Sun Chuanting's expression was very solemn, and his eyes were also extremely firm. Obviously has made up his mind.

Yuan Keli naturally understood that since Sun Chuanting was so young to lead the army, it must be the Emperor Tianqi who tried his best to overcome all opinions.Sun Chuanting bears the trust of Emperor Tianqi, and the kindness of knowing you is as high as the mountain and as deep as the sea. If there is any mistake this time, it is not Sun Chuanting alone.Emperor Tianqi will definitely lose the reputation of being unknown, and Sun Chuanting's pressure can be imagined.

"Chuan Ting, don't let anyone or anything stop you from thinking, this is what I can tell you!" Yuan Keli smiled lightly, his eyes were very soft, as if Look at a junior!

Bowing to Yuan Keli, Sun Chuanting said gratefully: "Chuanting has been taught! Thank you for your teaching, sir."

Accepting Sun Chuanting's salute frankly, Yuan Keli knew that Sun Chuanting performed the disciple's salute to his disciples, and the relationship between the two of them was one step closer.He also likes Sun Chuanting very much, so he is naturally happy to see it succeed.

Time passed quickly, and the next morning, just after dawn, the camps of both armies started to move.Obviously neither side is going to look at it like this today, the battle is today!

The Ming army on the top of the city was also preparing. Zhu Xieyuan boarded the top of the city early and looked at the camps on both sides with a very solemn face.He was still a little worried. After all, 2 people faced so many rebels, no matter what, it would be a bit difficult.Although he already knew that Yuan Keli was in the army, he was still very worried.

However, Zhu Xieyuan did not expect that Yuan Keli would appear here, which also gave him a reassurance.He naturally knew Yuan Keli's ability, and when he thought of Yuan Keli, he felt a lot more secure in his heart.

Both the Ming army and the rebel army outside the city were preparing, but obviously the Ming army was faster and finished their preparations soon.At the handling office in front of the Ming army camp, there were two rows of Ming army soldiers. They were in groups of four, two of them were carrying a small cannon, and the other two were carrying a big package.

There were a total of 400 people. They each found a place to set up the artillery, and then unwrapped their bodies, all of which were round cannons.Because of the rifling problem, the gun can only be used in the round shape.However, this kind of artillery modified from the Huzun cannon can now shoot four miles away, which means that most of the rebel camps are within the range of the artillery.

On the top of the city of Chengdu, the King of Shu and the officials in Chengdu are watching.When the king of Shu came today, he still had a smile on his face, obviously, what happened yesterday was not taken seriously.But at this moment, the King of Shu frowned slightly, and turned to ask Zhu Xieyuan, "Master Zhu, what are those soldiers doing? Are they setting up artillery? Why hasn't this king seen it!"

Zhu Xieyuan was even more confused. Naturally, he had never seen it before. His face darkened and he said, "Go back to the prince, and I haven't seen it either!"

"My lord, my lord! I have seen this kind of cannon before!" The king of Shu just showed a disappointed look on his face, when a voice rang in everyone's ears, which surprised everyone.

When everyone followed the voice, they found that the speaker was actually Qin Liangyu, a general who had never spoken much.Zhu Xieyuan was better, and the king of Shu couldn't wait to say: "General Qin, tell me quickly!"

"Yes, my lord! This kind of artillery is called a two-person cannon. The first time I saw it was in the army led by Sun Chengzong and Sun. It is said that it was newly developed by the firearms factory, because it can be carried by two people, so Called two people to carry the cannon. Compared with the bulky barbarian cannon, this kind of two-person cannon is much smaller in range and power. However, the advantages of this kind of cannon are also very obvious, easy to carry and the rate of fire is very fast, Ordinary cannons fired one cannon, but this kind of cannon has already fired two!" Qin Liangyu replied respectfully, and then told what he knew.

All the people present were stunned. Obviously they did not expect that this was a new type of artillery from the imperial court. Zhu Xieyuan frowned and said, "Could this be the army from northern Xinjiang?" Although he was in Sichuan, he still knew the situation in Liaodong. Di's report is slow, but he will still arrive.
