No matter whether Du Jin agrees or not, the firecracker is definitely offered. When Xu Zizhen was in Lanzhou, he had already thought clearly that there was no other way to get close to Xiang Size except this trick.

Du Jin's expression was ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If this is the case, although we can get close to Xiang Size, we will still be under heavy guard. How can you act and escape?"

Xu Zizhen smiled: "Shanren has his own tricks."

……

Xingzi Fortress was built on the hillside, and the Xixia Army Commander's Camp was at the foot of the deepest mountain in the castle. Sitting in the Commander's Camp, Feng Size's face was like sinking water. Little Jincheng Pass could not be broken, and was even defeated. Fortunately, Xiang Size withdrew his troops in time and did not cause more losses, but even so, only [-] of the [-] troops remained.

Today is the seventh day of the Xia army's retreat. For a whole week, the Xixia army has been guarding nothing. The Song army did not come to pursue it, not even sending a scout. This surprised Xiang Size somewhat.

I don't know how long this dull atmosphere lasted, and finally it was Xiang Size who spoke first: "Do you think Song Jun will come?"

The coach spoke, and the people below finally breathed a sigh of relief, but no one dared to answer this question lightly.

The Battle of Jinchengguan was too useless. The Song army seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood. One could hold up to four or five Xixia armies. All the generals knew very well that the fighting spirit of the entire army was at a low ebb now. If Song Jun came after him at this time, he might be easily beaten and fled again.

As for fighting back to capture Jincheng Pass?Come on, wash up and sleep.

Xiang Size spoke again, he looked around, and said slowly: "The commander-in-chief has asked San Jue Tang to send more people over quickly to make a hundred extremely artillery pieces for me, even the black fire bombs will be there Arrived recently."

The generals were stunned for a moment, and then they were overjoyed. The extreme artillery is a good thing. It is powerful and has a long enough range. If there are really hundreds of them, they can blow up Jincheng Pass. Isn't Lanzhou easy to capture?

Xiang Size guessed what they were thinking, and snorted heavily: "Don't be too happy too soon, although the teacher is a Confucian student, he uses soldiers like a god, and you have already tasted his tricks." He paused at this point, and continued, "The extreme artillery is not the key, but the black fire oil is something that is urgently needed, and it has been transported from thousands of miles, so there is no room for any mistakes."

Someone below couldn't help but interjected: "Commander, the black fire oil has already been purchased? If you are already in Xiajing, why worry?"

Xiang Size glanced at him: "What do you know, the black fire is not easy to come by. It is a long way from Tubo to this place, and you have to take the Hexi Road, where horse thieves are rampant, and if one is wrong, they will all be destroyed." Picking up a note on the table with one finger, "San Jue Tang's right envoy sent me a message that the black fire is already on its way and will be transported to Jisang City in seven days. Who will meet me?"

Jisang City is in the southwest of the Tengger Desert. If you ride fast, you can definitely get there in seven days. This is an escort job, and there will be no problems at all. All the generals immediately stood up and signed up enthusiastically. Simple, better than worrying about it here, right?

Xiang Size sighed secretly, how could he not know what these idiots were thinking, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he had to choose one at random, point out the direction, and waved his hand to let him lead the troops to leave .

The extremely artillery was able to do it again, and the black fire was also settled. The confidence of the generals seemed to come back all of a sudden, and they whispered to each other.

At this moment, the guard outside the door suddenly came to report: "Marshal, Du Jin from the Gongshu Hall has something to see."

Xiang Size was taken aback for a moment, Du Jin knew that he was a well-known figure in the Gongshu Hall, but it was just rumored that he was killed by the Tianxia in the valley of Gaolan Mountain a few days ago, why did he appear again now?

He thought for a while, and sat down again: "Biography!"

Du Jin stepped into the door immediately, holding a red cloth bag in his hand, looking cautious, he didn't salute after entering the door, just nodded and said: "Commander, Du has something urgent to discuss."

Xiang Size nodded: "Let's talk."

Du Jin lowered his eyelids, and said indifferently: "The law is not taught to the six ears."

Xiang Sizze frowned, seeing Du Jin like this, he would never say anything if there were others. Although he said that as the commander of an army, he should not be alone with others rashly, but Du Jin is only a member of Gongshutang. To put it bluntly, he was just a craftsman, so after thinking about it, he waved his hand and screened off the generals.

Du Jin and other generals all retreated, then raised his head, and smiled slightly at Xiang Size: "Commander, Du has something to present." After speaking, he walked up a few steps, and put the red cloth bag in his hand on Xiang Size In front of Ze.

Xiang Size untied the cloth bag suspiciously, and when all the red cloth was opened, he saw a firecracker lying there quietly with a dim light.

"This...!" Xiang Size's shock was no small matter, and he stared straight at the gun. He had witnessed the power of the gun outside the Jincheng Pass, and he still regretted not grabbing it during the scuffle. , although this gun is smaller than that musket, it is obviously the same type of weapon. Although Xixia's weapons are the best in the world, they are mainly cold weapons in the final analysis. Now suddenly something advanced appears in front of him. Not surprised?

Du Jin smiled and said: "How about it, Marshal?"

Xiang Size let out a long breath, and looked up at Du Jin: "Where did you get this thing?"

Du Jin said: "This was purchased by Du from a barbarian in the Xiliang market. It is said that this item is rare even among barbarians. I wonder if the commander-in-chief is interested in this item?"

interest?Xiang Size is very interested. Even if this small musket is less powerful than the one from Shenjiying, it will be even more powerful if paired with Xixia's own god arm bow and whirlwind cannon. Besides, there are extremely artillery With cooperation, not only the small Lanzhou City, but even the Great Song Dynasty will not be a problem.

Xiang Size stood up, looking solemnly, looked at Du Jin and said, "Mr. Du, if the commander-in-chief asks you to imitate this thing, I wonder if you can do it?"

Du Jin smiled: "It's easy."

"Okay!" Xiang Size slapped his hands, "I will send someone to help you, and I will do it right away!"

Du Jin smiled slightly: "Wait a minute, Commander, Du has something to discuss."

Xiang Size was taken aback for a moment: "Mr. Du, please tell me."

Du Jin shook his head and said, "Du doesn't need anyone's help. In addition, please don't let other people know about this... including my people in the hall."

After all, Xiang Size is a person, and he quickly understood what he meant after being stunned: "Mr. Du, are you worried that people in your court will take a share of your pie?"

Du Jin was noncommittal, and slowly said: "Du has recruited a group of Tubo casual workers from outside. If the commander-in-chief can give me fifteen days, I can make it..." At this point, he raised a finger, "A hundred muskets!"

Xiang Size nodded without hesitation: "Okay, I promise you!"
