Chapter 1 Cao Ang is here

Bang!

With a loud explosion, a cloud of sparks immediately exploded on the river, and a large opening broke out on the frozen surface of the river, billowing black smoke continued to rise, and everyone on the side of the river opened their mouths wide, including Yuan Yun himself. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Yuan Yun didn't expect that seamless steel could really be produced in this era, but the facts in front of him were indisputable, since He Yan came up with sulfuric acid, everything began to become easier.

The hot-rolled and cold-rolled technology also has the most primitive mechanical power because of the emergence of the hydro-powered car on the river, and the daily forging of tens of thousands of times finally makes the steel more solid and tough, and the multi-element gradually takes shape, and the cannon weighing more than one ton is born.

It's just that the barrel can't be too long, but it can also reach a certain range, a full seven or eight hundred meters, and such a distance will naturally make everyone stunned.

Yuan Yun's whole body trembled, not because he was frightened by the power of the cannon, but because he felt that the cold wind blowing by the big river was definitely an idiot's behavior, but Cao Ang had to come and see it for himself, and he strongly asked everyone to come together.

After a little glance at Jia Xu, who was blue from the cold, Yuan Yun greeted Shi Shen and Xiao Liu, and let the two of them stand beside the old man, and it would be good to block the wind.

Cao Ang's face was full of redness, looking at the billowing smoke, there was a crazy expression, and he walked back and forth in front of the crowd a few times, laughing twice in the distance, and then looking at the artillery a hundred meters away and nodding.

Yuan Yun finally couldn't bear it anymore, so he suggested: "Brother Cao Ang, the cannon has been successful, there is no need for us to stay here, it is better to return to the city first, this ice and snow is really uncomfortable." ”

Cao Ang was stunned and puzzled: "Although the ground is full of ice and snow, I don't feel cold, Brother Yun should exercise his body well." ”

After speaking, Cao Ang waved his hand at several craftsmen by the cannon, signaling them to fire another cannonball, and Cao Ang's guards guarding the cannon pulled out the ring head knife again, in case these craftsmen suddenly had any bad intentions, in case they turned the cannon head and bombarded the crowd on the shore, it would definitely be a heavy casualties, because they had already seen the power of this kind of cannon just now, and now these pro-soldiers were more nervous than anyone else.

The corners of Yuan Yun's mouth twitched, Cao Ang actually said that it was not cold, damn, it was estimated that he was the only one in the audience who was excited and his whole body was steaming, and the others were basically freezing.

"The next shot will be lit by me Zhang Liao." After Zhang Liao finished speaking, he immediately bowed to Cao Ang and walked to the cannon.

Yuan Yun sighed secretly, there is another one who is not afraid of the cold, that is Zhang Liao, I don't know what this thing thinks, for all new and dangerous things, they are full of passion for infinite challenges, what kind of blood do martial artists bleed? It's really boring to risk your own life all the time.

After watching Zhang Liao who was leaving, Yuan Yun found that Xiao Liu's eyes were also full of anticipation, and he suddenly became angry, kicked hard, and didn't kick it, so he could only move his angry eyes to Shi Shen, this thing is honest, and immediately turned his back and prepared to take a kick in his ass.

Bang!

Another cannonball flew out, and then exploded far away, and now there were two puffs of smoke on the frozen river, and there was another shout of joy from the crowd.

Cao Ang nodded with satisfaction, took a step back and looked at Yuan Yun and said, "How many pieces of this kind of artillery can be produced in a month?" ”

Yuan Yun rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "A month? Brother Cao Ang, are you making it difficult for you to be strong? Let's not talk about the cost, just mobilizing manpower requires the cooperation of many people, and building such an artillery gun requires all other things to stop, so you should ask how many can you build in a year. ”

Cao Ang was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile of discouragement: "It seems that I am in a hurry, such a big killing weapon on the battlefield, but I can't equip a large number of troops, this is really worrying." ”

After being discouraged, he looked at Yuan Yun and said, "If we increase the investment in steelmaking workshops and blacksmith workshops, can this slow output be improved?" ”

Yuan Yun rolled his eyes again and replied: "Increasing the investment in these two workshops will inevitably reduce the money of other workshops, so the income and expenditure will be unbalanced, where do you let me get the money back to maintain?" Unless ......"

Yuan Yun paused when he said this, and then quickly continued: "Unless you open your door, so that I can sell arms boldly and boldly." ”

"No!" Cao Ang refused.

Weapons are extremely strictly guarded, and once they are outflowed, especially those made by advanced workshops in Luoyang, it is tantamount to financing the enemy, and this kind of thing is completely impossible in this era.

It's just that Yuan Yun's thoughts are completely different, if other princes rely on the weapons made in Luoyang, then their fate will be more miserable, which has been proven countless times by strong foreign enemies in the last years of the Qing Dynasty.

It is only necessary to sell inferior weapons, and then eliminate the princes' own weapon workshops, and when they really face war, then the other party can only be dumbfounded.

It's a pity that these truths can't be explained, because even Cao Ang can't understand it, so Yuan Yun can only choose to remain silent, and then honestly make some hard-earned money through the private workshop.

However, Yuan Yun has always had the mentality that he can be rescued again, so he tentatively continued to ask: "Xiliang Ma Teng has now fully thrown himself into the imperial court, Zhang Lu will not dare to hinder us if he gives him the courage to do so, we might as well sell some inferior weapons to those earth kings in the Western Regions, so that we can earn back a lot of money, and even exchange them for some Hu beauties, is Brother Cao Ang thinking about it again?" ”

Cao Ang still didn't change his mind, it seemed that he had never been willing to compromise on weapons, and still shook his head and said: "Although Ma Teng's son Ma Chao has made a meritorious crusade against Gao Gan this time, Ma Chao is unruly, and Guo Jiajun is always worried that this person is born rebellious, so if Brother Yun sells weapons to the Western Regions, he will inevitably be left behind by the Ma clan in Xiliang, in case they really rebel against the imperial court again, this is still an enemy, so it must not be." ”

Yuan Yun sighed secretly and nodded, but soon became happy again, before Cai Wenji reminded him that he knew that Zhong Xuan was such a talent, and then he just wrote to Cao Cao, and he needed this person to go to Xiliang to contact Ma Teng, but he didn't expect things to be done very smoothly.

Moreover, Zhong Miao not only contacted Ma Teng, but also borrowed a large army from Ma Teng, led by Ma Chao to meet Guo Yuan, who was crossing the river, resulting in Guo Yuan being beheaded by Ma Chao's general Pang De, and Gao Gan had no choice but to surrender and merge with the state.

These merits all prove that Zhong Xuan is powerful, and it seems that this person must also get into the system of Xincheng, at least let him stand on Cao Ang's side, so that his own capital will be greatly increased.

Thinking of Zhong Xuan's talent, he immediately thought of Zhao Yun, this thing is really meticulous in doing the work of a bodyguard, and the escort work around him is not leaky, and the more than 20 assassins sent by Yuan Xi again were all killed by Zhao Yun a hundred meters away before they got close.

It's just that Zhao Yun is really in Cao Ying's heart in Han now, and he blatantly wrote a letter to Liu Bei, damn, when Lao Tzu is a marquis, this is very angry, and he is helpless, he is really reluctant to kill Zhao Yun.

When he was having a headache for Zhao Yun, he saw Li He coming from afar, but because of his identity, he didn't dare to get close, so he could only stand far away outside Cao Ang's personal soldiers.

Yuan Yun had no choice but to walk over by himself, and only when he got close did he ask, "Li He, what are you looking for?" ”

Li He Shili said: "Back to the lord, the eldest lady of the Zhen family in the family sent a villain to ask, when does the lord plan to return home?" ”

Yuan Yun's head began to hurt again, Zhen Mi ran over at the end of autumn, and he came with a letter from his eldest sister Feng Xuan, which was quite justifiable, and he didn't give himself a chance to refute at all, so he lived in the house in a grand manner.

And Zhen Mi came to Luoyang, her originally calm and waveless family life was like a pot, Cai Wenji was just a talented woman, so she didn't have too many constraints on disciplining her subordinates, but Zhen Mi was different, she was the pillar of the family when she was in Zhongshan, so after Luoyang Yuan Fu beat her, the whole family began to jump.

Shi Shen now swayed when he saw Zhen Mi, because he had secretly drunk a few glasses of wine before, but Zhen Mi insisted on asking him to hang a sign around his neck, with the book: "I am a thief!" ”

This incident left Shi Shen with a psychological shadow, so every time he saw Zhen Mi, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he would always subconsciously hide behind his lord, like a little girl, unlucky.

"The woman in the house is here again?" When Cao Ang asked, his eyes were full of sarcasm.

Yuan Yun frowned impatiently, and then replied: "You take care of your family first, how can you run to other men's houses as soon as you arrive in Luoyang?" You'd better restrain yourself in this matter, don't make any bad rumors and ruin the reputation of this great marquis. ”

Cao Ang scolded with disdain, and then replied unhappily: "You still have the reputation of fart, your reputation on the streets of Xudu is rotten, if you go back to Xudu now, it is estimated that the dog will dislike you, as for He Yao, who wants you not even to attend the wedding banquet between me and her, she came here this time to go to your house to extort the bride price, who is to blame?" ”

Yuan Yun rolled his eyes and said: "Didn't I send someone to give you a gift when you got married, and it's not light, the first-class Beihai Haizhu gave two at a time, and the Dawan horse over there in the Western Regions also got you one, are you still not satisfied?" And you got married on the day when I met Ma Teng and Zhang Lu, so Brother Cao Ang won't be able to tell which is more important, right? ”

Cao Ang laughed and said, "What's the point of a little wealth?" The most important thing is that you didn't show up in person, this is where He Yao is angry, so if she comes to Luoyang and doesn't blackmail you, the evil anger in her heart will definitely not disappear. ”

Yuan Yun snorted heavily, and immediately replied: "Hey, hey, don't push it all on your wife, the first thing she did when she went to my house was to snatch my cook, this is definitely your idea, right?" We all know the dishes He Yao cooks, are we finally unable to stand it? That's why you came to hit my cook's idea, you are wishful thinking, and you put the blame on your wife, shameless, right? ”

Cao Ang laughed, and said with a bitter face in an instant: "You should help my brother, He Yao did cook a little, and she also likes this bite very much, just make some of that and what kind of food if it's okay, I don't want to make a way?" ”

"Black cuisine, since you want to learn words from me, you should learn it thoroughly, don't ask me again every time, it's boring." Yuan Yun finished muttering, and frowned again: "When will you pick up your mother-in-law?" Lao Tzu's backyard was occupied by her, so Lao Tzu didn't dare to go to the backyard to live, and it was not a matter of mixing with you in Mr. Wenhe's mansion all day long. ”

Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Bear with me, now that He Yao is tossing in your house, I can catch some breath, otherwise I can't stand her a little." ”

Yuan Yun laughed and said, "Don't complain to me here, He Yao has only married into your family for a few days, and the news that she is pregnant has come to me, how much affection do you have, I guess you haven't stopped every night, right?" ”

Cao Ang bared his teeth and said provocatively: "It's Brother Yun, you can't do it, you have married several younger brothers and sisters, and the result is two eggs, your small body should really practice, otherwise men can't do it all, how can you command thousands of troops in the future?" ”

Yuan Yun instantly burst out, a man can say anything, but he can't say no, this is definitely the bottom line, but before he could talk back, he was pulled by Jia Xu and almost fell on his heels.

Jia Xu pulled Yuan Yun away, and then tightened the robe on his body, and was very disdainful of the two young people in front of him talking about sex here, and if he didn't talk about something serious at the moment, it was estimated that he would have to listen to the two of them talking nonsense here again this afternoon, and it was in such a cold environment.

Arching his hand slightly, Jia Xu said to Cao Ang: "Since the prince has come to Luoyang, why do you have to go to the workshop in the city to walk around, it is better to take advantage of the light of the day, and we will go home now." ”
