Reincarnation Guest of All Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms

Chapter 67
Zuo Houde naturally wants to have a good fortune between the two. Relatively speaking, Zuo Houde still needs more time to develop. The longer the stalemate between Daming and Dayan is beneficial to Zuo Houde.

Of course, Zuo Houde has the courage to have both ways. First of all, Hong Zaixing will definitely not do anything to Zuo Houde. On the contrary, he has to appease Zuo Houde.

And the Ming side will not do anything to Zuo Houde. First of all, after having the land of Liang State, Mobei City is no longer the only place in the Northern Expedition. On the contrary, Dingcheng and Mobei City are both high-walled cities. It is not worthwhile to attack the north from here!
At the same time, from the perspective of both sides, Zuo Houde is just an unimportant third party. When the outcome of the two parties is determined, they can naturally take care of it. Neither do that!
……

"Are you a member of the Mo family?" Zuo Houde looked at the man in front of him. The man had a dark complexion, a tall figure, and was dressed in short and thick clothes. He looked like a poor peasant.

This is in line with Zuo Houde's understanding of the Mohist school, "clothes must always be warm, and then look beautiful." This is the Mohist way of dressing.

The man clasped his fists and said, "Han Yuan of the Mo family pays his respects to the general!"

This man came to Dingcheng with the caravan, and then saw the recruitment order in the city, and was recommended to him.

"Oh! You are a member of the Mohist family. Did you learn the Mohist's superficial learning or mechanical skills?" Zuo Houde looked at Han Yuan and asked.

Xianxue is the theory of Mohism. Mozi put forward "universal love", "non-attack", "admiration of the virtuous", "advocacy of the same", "the will of heaven", "understanding ghosts", "non-life", "non-joy", "festival burial", "frugal use" and so on. The point of view is to take universal love as the core, to save money and to honor the virtuous as the fulcrum,

Han Yuan clasped his hands and said, "General, Han Yuan was born in the Jumo Academy, and he has learned from both, but I am not a disciple of Juzi, and I mostly learned mechanism techniques."

Zuo Houde frowned: "Great Ink Society?"

"Yes, General, the Jumo Academy was established in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is currently a holy place for Mohist students." Han Yuan said.

Zuo Houde was stunned for a moment, he had never heard of the Jumo Society.

So you said, "Can you explain the Jumo Society?"

Han Yuan also looked calm. The Mohist School is no longer a prominent school. There are not many people who know the Mohist School, let alone the Mohist Academy, so he said: "General, the Jumo Academy was established 70 years ago by my Mohist school. It was founded by Tian Sheng, a great son of the previous generation, and gradually became the source of Mohist students all over the world..."

After hearing what Han Yuan said, Zuo Houde realized that this Mohist academy is the birthplace of Mohist students in the world, and there are quite a few of them, more than a thousand, but compared to the other three major schools, That's too few, these 1000 people are almost all Mohist disciples in the world.

After hearing what Han Yuan said, Zuo Houde became interested in the Mohist school. In Zuo Houde's opinion, this giant Mohist society is a talent with a long-term plan in hand, even the ancient "scientist" is called but.

So he asked: "Can you introduce your brother to come to Dingcheng?"

Han Yuan smiled wryly, and said: "General, although the Mo family is no longer a famous school in the world, most of the disciples of the Jumo Academy are those who have no worries about food and clothing at home, or those who have been reused in Daming. I am afraid that few come to Beijing. ground!"

When Zuo Houde heard this, he realized that his thinking was simple. In ancient times, these Mohists were also talents, and the importance of talents was not something that no one could see. The Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty presumably had many Mohists.

Zuo Houde asked again: "Then why did you come to Dingcheng?"

Han Yuan showed a wry smile: "General, I am a member of Dingcheng, and I am returning home!"

Zuo Houde really didn't know, so he chatted with Han Yuan for a while, and sent him away.

……

"Ying, have you ever found out about Han Yuan's background?"

"My lord, Han Yuan is from Dingcheng. He went to Jiangnan to study when he was young, and now he returns home. He has an old mother at home. It can be verified."

Hearing Ying's words, Zuo Houde gradually let go of his vigilance. Recently, he sent shadow guards to Jiangling and Youzhou, so he paid more attention to this aspect.

The main reason why Zuo Houde went to investigate Han Yuan like this was because Zuo Houde wanted to reuse this person.

On the second day, Zuo Houde recruited Han Yuan again.

Looking at Han Yuan, Zuo Houde asked, "Do you know gunpowder?"

Han Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "I know it!"

Zuo Houde asked again: "Have you ever studied firearms?"

Han Yuan continued: "General, I know about firearms, but I haven't studied them too much."

In this world, firearms are still at a relatively basic stage, far from bows and arrows, so they have never been very popular. Even if it wasn't for the few years in Zhuojun, Zuo Houde would not have known that there are firearms in this world.

Zuo Houde was a little disappointed when he heard Han Yuan's words, but he immediately changed his mind. After all, it is impossible to meet a "weapon expert" casually

Zuo Houde nodded and said: "I can allocate a base for you, and at the same time select skilled craftsmen in Dingcheng for you. I want you to study firearms."

After hearing Zuo Houde's words, Han Yuan was pleasantly surprised. People from the Mo family are interested in research. In Han Yuan's view, this is the place where he can display his talents.

So with excitement on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Yes, General!"

Zuo Houde sent him away with a wave of his hand.

In fact, although Zuo Houde was only a student of history in his previous life, Zuo Houde also knew that the progress of firearms in his previous life was very slow, and Zuo Houde also knew little about this aspect in his previous life, so he could not bring much help, Zuo Houde Didn't hold out much hope for it either.

Zuo Houde's greater purpose is "bombs". Zuo Houde doesn't know about guns, but Zuo Houde knows a lot about bombs in his previous life. Zuo Houde is also confident that he can research it in a short time. Above is a big killer.

Of course, if this Han Yuan is really a mechanical genius, and he really advances the firearms a big step forward in a short period of time, even reaching the level of bows and arrows, Zuo Houde will gain a lot.

……

In a short period of time, Han Yuan found the right manpower, and with the base given by Zuo Houde, the group began to study firearms. Zuo Houde watched them research and began to put forward his own requirements: "It is best to be able to firearms at a range Reach 150 steps, so that the effective range can reach [-] steps! Then the loading is as simple and convenient as possible.”

Then Zuo Houde ignored them and let them study. After all, Zuo Houde was still a layman, so he didn't give orders randomly. He just provided the corresponding requirements and the direction was fine.

Of course, outside their research base, Zuo Houde is heavily guarded. After all, even if the research on firearms can't make a name, the "bomb" is still a big killer that cannot be leaked.
