Persuade? Interpretation?

Totally not working!

Liu Shouyou is not Zhang Cheng and Gao Wu, Liu Shouyou is a third-grade person, Jinyi Wei is the same knowledge, and he is in a high position. And Zhang Cheng and Gao Wu are bandits, Zhang Cheng and Gao Wu can fight for a little hope, but Liu Shouyou will not.

"Then it's only force! But how to force it? ”

Luo Xin sat like this all night, and it was not until dawn that his constricted brows unfolded, and a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but there was more worry between his eyebrows.

"Bet!"

Luo Xin got up from the case, his eyes were already red, but his spirit was very excited. Let Lu Daqing call Lu Zhonglian and Liang Dazhu in, take out the gold and silver, and tell the two of them, and the two of them left in a hurry. And Luo Xin fell on the bed at this time, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next day dawned.

Luo Xin went out alone and went straight to the barracks to see his eldest brother. But I learned that the eldest brother took people out of the city to inspect. Seeing that the eldest brother really got the opportunity to patrol outside, Luo Xin was secretly happy, so he asked the soldiers in the military camp to tell Luo Qing that he would go home after returning to the city.

At night, Luo Qing came back in the dust, and after meeting his parents, he came to Luo Xin's study. He didn't speak when he entered the door, but just looked at Luo Xin. Luo Xin knew his eldest brother's temperament, and he didn't care, but just asked:

"Big brother, how many people do you have now?"

"Originally, there were only 300 infantry, but later General Xu allocated me 100 cavalry and 100 infantry, and now I have 500 men under my command."

Luo Xin frowned slightly and said, "Can't you ask for some more soldiers from General Xu?" ”

"Impossible!" Luo Qing simply shook his head and did not explain.

"Five hundred is five hundred!" Luo Xin nodded and said: "After you leave the city with people tomorrow, select a hundred trustworthy people to go to our family's manor in Shanglin Village, and they will live there permanently in the future, will there be any problems?" ”

Luo Qing thought for a moment and said, "There will be no problem, I will tell General Xu to send those people out as secret sentinels to reconnoiter the enemy's traces." And I take the rest of the people with me every day to investigate. General Xu also knew that I was General Bai's confidant, and he would not pursue such a matter. ”

"That's good!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Big brother, if you find that someone is spying on you, or spying on our family in Shanglin Village, you will treat it as if you didn't see it." ”

Luo Qing raised his eyebrows, but he believed Luo Xin, so he didn't ask, just nodded.

"I will go back to Shanglin Village in two days. We'll be in touch at any time. ”

Luo Fu.

Under the shadow of a big tree, Liu Shouyou stood there looking at Luo Xin's courtyard, frowning slightly.

"Why did this Luo Xin suddenly come home? And as soon as he came back, he entered Luo Xin's study? Yesterday, Luo Xin found out my identity. I went out early this morning, and Luo Qing returned home at night, what is the secret here? ”

"Stepping on ......"

There was a sound of footsteps, Liu Shouyou's figure disappeared in a flash in the dark night, Luo Qing came out of Luo Xin's yard, then left the house, turned over and left.

Outside the Luo Mansion, Liu Shouyou's figure appeared, looking at Luo Qing's departing back and frowning. Then the figure retreated into the shadows and vanished.

Inside Luo Xin's study.

Luo Xin stood in front of the window, looking at the night sky outside the window, a layer of worry shrouded in his eyebrows.

"Then Liu Shouyou should make arrangements, right?" Then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Even if you don't pay attention this time, you will definitely pay attention next time." ”

Sunrise. Sunset.

In a restaurant box.

Liu Shouyou sat there and poured himself a drink, there was a knock on the door, three long and two short, Liu Shouyou put down the wine glass in his hand and said:

"Come in!"

The door opened and closed quickly. A man with a hat flashed in, clenched his fists and said:

"See Tongzhi-sama."

Liu Shouyou looked over with his eyes and said, "What did you find?" ”

"Na Luo Qing left a hundred soldiers in Luo Mansion in Shanglin Village."

"Infantry or cavalry?"

"Infantry!"

"What about Luo Qing?"

"I've returned to the city."

"Does Xu Zhen know?"

"The news has been sent back from the inside, and Luo Qing explained the reason to Xu Zhen. He sent out all the 100 men and turned them into sentry posts. So Xu Zhen shouldn't know that Luo Qing put all the hundred people into his home. ”

"What are these two brothers going to do?" Liu Shouyou narrowed his eyes slightly, and said half-loudly: "Send someone to monitor the Luo family in Shanglin Village, and monitor Luo Qing and Luo Xin." ”

"Yes!"

Two more days.

Lu Zhonglian came back alone, carrying a large package and entering Luo Xin's study, and at this time, Liu Shouyou was still in the box listening to a brocade guard report to him.

"My lord, in the early hours of this morning, Luo Xin's guards Lu Zhonglian and Liang Dazhu returned to Luo's house in Shanglin Village with twenty carts, and our people have already found out that the cart was filled with charcoal, sulfur powder and saltpeter, as well as some clay pots."

Liu Shouyou's eyebrows jumped, his eyes sharpened, and he couldn't help blurting out: "He's going to make gunpowder." ”

Gunpowder is no longer a rare thing in the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that the Ming government can make gunpowder, even the people can also make gunpowder, but the Ming government makes gunpowder for muskets, and the people make firecrackers. As a brocade guard, he naturally knows what gunpowder is made of.

If Luo Xin just bought a little, even if it was to buy gunpowder directly, as long as the amount was not much, Liu Shouyou would not pay attention to it, but Luo Xin bought too much.

What is he going to do?

At this time, Luo Xin was making gunpowder in his yard, and it was black powder with even greater power. The materials were brought back by Lu Zhonglian, and the weight was not much, but it was enough to make a land mine. As for the preparation method of black powder and the ratio of Luo Xin, it is not that he once made it in his previous life, but that the important role played by gunpowder in Chinese and foreign history made him conduct a serious study.

He was tinkering, but he saw Lu Daqing sneaking over and whispered, "Liu Shouyou is back." ”

Luo Xin's eyebrows raised, nodded and continued to tinker, making some black powder according to the ratio, then took the clay pot, put some small pieces of gravel and black powder into the clay pot, and then sealed the mouth and left a long lead. Nodding with satisfaction, he picked up the clay pot, asked Lu Daqing to hold a fire fold, and then put the clay pot in the center of the yard, lit the lead with a fire fold, and pulled Lu Daqing to run towards the house.

The lead left by Luo Qing was very long, and it was not until Luo Xin and Lu Daqing ran into the house and leaned on the window to look out, and the lead had not yet burned to the clay pot. At this time, it was not only the two of them, but also Lu Zhonglian, Die'er and Chunhua were all lying on the window looking at the clay pot in the distance outside, they didn't know what Luo Xin had come up with.
