subvert the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 54 Lead Problems

The rebel army is finally going north, this is also the decision of the high-level group in the rebel army, and what Shang Rang and Meng Kai want to see.Their hometown is in Shandong, and since the army is so strong now, it is their wish to fight back to their hometown in Shandong.Their slogan is to rescue their relatives and friends who are suffering, although most of their relatives and friends are among the rebels.

Zhu Wen was riding on a war horse in military uniform. Looking at the mighty rebel army, he didn't feel the slightest excitement in his heart. Shandong is relatively weak in strength. With the current strength of the rebel army, there is no suspense about the outcome.

Zhu Wen still kept practicing internal strength and swordsmanship, because he knew that this era was full of bloodthirsty and killing, and it was also full of many so-called masters.If you want to save your life with your current strength, the most direct reason is to become a master among the masters. You can't do it alone, you need a group of masters' subordinates, so that you can be safe.

With Huang Ying's consent, Zhu Wen taught Zhu Cun and Zhu Zhen the basic method of practicing internal energy. Hu Zhen did not learn from him because of internal energy, which made Zhu Wen feel a little regretful.After all, he knows that the inner strength mental method he has practiced is the top mental method in the world, and he can't learn it just by wanting to learn it.

Zhu Zhen was very excited about the rebel army going north. He seemed to like war by nature, and he seemed like a fish in water on the battlefield.Whether he is commanding from the rear or fighting on the front line, he will be inexplicably excited.

Zhu Zhen's new wife, Xiao He, was also in military uniform and riding alongside Zhu Zhen. Seeing her husband's excited face, she felt angry.Although she followed Huang Chao's father and daughter to the rivers and lakes since she was a child, as a woman, but as a married woman, she also wanted to live an ordinary life like other people.After all, swords have no eyes, and in every war, many brothers will die on the battlefield. She is very afraid that one day her husband will be like everyone else and never return.

Zhu Cun and Wu Hua also rode side by side, but they didn't have much interest in the upcoming war.The two look at each other from time to time, and you can see a trace of love in each other's eyes.Wu Hua has wandered around the world for many years, and she is satisfied to find Zhu Cun, a bloody man who knows how to cherish her. No matter what Zhu Cun does, she will never disobey him.In her heart, her husband is her heaven.

Huang Ying patted her horse and rushed to Zhu Wen's side, she giggled and said, "Third brother, look back at the two of them, I really envy them."

Zhu Wen smiled and said, "What's the use of being envious, you have to take practical actions."

Huang Ying asked in confusion: "Practical action? What practical action?"

With a smirk on his face, Zhu Wen blew a kiss to Huang Ying when no one was paying attention, and did not forget to wink at her meaningfully.

Huang Ying hurriedly blushed and looked around, seeing that fortunately no one was paying attention, she gave Zhu Wen a threatening look, and said in a low voice, "You're going to die?"

After dark, the people set up camp to rest, Zhu Wen, Huang Ying, Zhu Cun, Wu Hua, Zhu Zhen, and Xiao He chatted around the brazier in Zhu Wen's tent.Although it was already spring at this time, it was still a bit cold at night.

Suddenly Zhu Wen's soldiers reported that Wu Biao asked to see him, and Zhu Wen wondered, why did Wu Biao ask to see him at this time?Zhu Wen said in a daze, "Let him in."

But he didn't notice that Wu Hua's eyes lit up suddenly when she heard Wu Biao's name, she opened her mouth to say something, glanced at Zhu Cun next to her, and closed her mouth again.

I saw Wu Biao entered Zhu Wen's big tent with a bitter face, and said with a face of shame: "General Zhu, the large firecracker that you asked me to make last time has been made with iron instead of bamboo tube. I have already tested it in Yicheng, and it is much more powerful than using a bamboo tube. When the iron piece bursts, the lethality is also very strong, enough to penetrate the hardest shield. It's just..."

When Zhu Wen heard Wu Biao say that the grenade had been made, he felt excited, and hurriedly asked, "Just what? Are you talking about it?"

Wu Biao said with a blushing face, "It's just that the fuse problem has not been solved. If you use a normal fuse, it will ignite too quickly. You must make the fuse long enough. But that is only suitable for large-scale ones, and you can use a catapult to launch it. Enter the general." The small size that the soldiers ordered last time is a little troublesome, if the lead wire is too long, it is not easy to carry, and it is easy to break the lead wire, if it is too short, it may explode if it is not thrown out."

Zhu Wen said anxiously: "Oh, why didn't you report earlier?"

Wu Biao said: "I originally thought that this problem could be solved as soon as possible, and I will report it when it is resolved, but I didn't expect the rebels to go north so soon. I think there must be a war when the rebels go north, and they may use this thing to attack the city, yes Come here and report to the general in a hurry." Wu Biao looked full of sincerity, fearing that his lack of skills would delay the opportunity of the battle, thinking about the scene when he boasted in front of Zhu Wen that day that he "has been making gunpowder since childhood", he couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion. ashamed.

Zhu Wen was stunned, and seeing Wu Biao's ashamed face, he quickly comforted him, "It's nothing, maybe I'm asking too much." In fact, Zhu Wen was already very satisfied. Simple "cannonballs" fired by trebuchets are enough to shock opponents on the battlefield.

Zhu Wen also told Wu Biao not to be too impatient and put safety first. After all, gunpowder is too lethal. After finally getting someone who understands gunpowder, wouldn’t it be a big loss if something happens to him?

Seeing that Zhu Wen didn't blame himself at all, Wu Biao kept comforting himself, and finally he didn't forget to make himself pay attention to safety, and felt more and more guilty in his heart.What a good general!Not only did he not receive the slightest punishment for not being able to complete the task assigned by the general, but he even comforted himself with such concern. Being with such a person is worth dying for.

Wu Biao knelt down on the ground in tears of gratitude, and said, "Thank you General for your generosity, for not pursuing the villain's ineffectiveness. Wu Biao will definitely try to solve the lead problem as soon as possible, in order to repay the General for his kindness."

Zhu Wen hurriedly helped Wu Biao up with both hands, and said: "We are teachers of benevolence and righteousness, and we don't have so many vain courtesy. As long as we are in our army, we are our brothers. Why are you so disrespectful? As long as you don't violate military laws, who will The punishment is on you? Besides, you have tried your best."

Wu Biao said a few words of gratitude excitedly, and was about to leave.

Suddenly a clear female voice shouted: "Brother Wu Biao!"

Wu Biao was startled and turned around in astonishment. As if he couldn't believe his eyes, he said in surprise, "Little Junior Sister!"
