Chapter 1241: The Appearance of the Imitation Crossbow

The Shaodian Army is gone!

The good news spread quickly in the city, and the residents who had just learned about it seemed to have survived the catastrophe and celebrated one after another.

There are also many people who secretly hurt themselves, all of them are big families with a lot of money, and their homes were almost ransacked by the Shaodian Army, if it weren't for Ding Kui's mercy and didn't let people dig three feet into the ground, I'm afraid they would have to go to the street to beg.

Feng Run changed into the official uniform of the director of the Senate's Pawn Division, walked down the street with his hands, and walked to the county guard mansion while comforting the people on the road.

Walking into the county guard's mansion, he first went to the dungeon, personally opened the prison door, and released the county guard firewood inside, and then was guided by the firewood servant to release the officials of his own country who were imprisoned by the Shaodian Army one by one.

"Xiaguan thank you Lord Feng for saving me. The firewood servant was grateful, and was speechless after saying this.

"Lord Chai doesn't have to be like this, I'm doing things for the kingdom, and if you're from my own country, of course I have to help. "Feng Run belongs to the officials of the Senate, and Chai Yu belongs to the officials of the Government Council, and there is no subordinate relationship between the two.

After that, Feng Run led the firewood servants straight out of the north gate, and there was about a brigade of Shaodian cavalry on the outskirts, and when they saw Feng Run's banner, they beat their horses and left, leaving ten wooden carts full of boxes.

Many people followed Feng Run and others to the front of the cart, and an officer of the city defense army picked up a knife on the ground, split a box, and a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry fell out.

"This is an agreement I made with the leader of the Shaodian Army, and he promised to leave behind the looted property after retreating. Feng Run turned to face the direction of Shouyang City, the national capital, "Thank you for the majesty of the king for impressing the enemy." After saying that, he bowed down.

The people present immediately followed and bowed, saying, "The king is mighty!"

At this time, of course, no one questioned it, did the Shaodian Army grab this little thing here?

A few days ago, Dai Gu received an order from the Military Command Department to stop all military operations and put the army on standby, until today he learned that Ding Kui had begun to withdraw to Shaodian State, and the previous stage of the Northern Route Army's mission was terminated.

The Commander's Office sent a new order, and the Northern Route Army left two divisions to assist in the restoration of local security and governance, and the remaining troops immediately returned to their garrisons.

"Is this the end?" said Daigu, who felt like a dream.

"I'm afraid yes, this time someone took the lead and persuaded Ding Kui to take the lead before us, not only that, but the subordinates estimated that the charge of attracting Ding Kui's invasion would be placed on our heads. ”

Gong Yelei said it very tactfully, and the crime will actually be placed on the head of the substitute.

"What?" Dai Gu was furious, "Do you mean refusing to sell grain to Ding Kui? How can I have the right to make this decision!

"We don't have the power to decide, but we have the ability to take the blame, my lord, have you forgotten? ”

"That's what Lord Governor meant!" Dai Gu's face turned pale.

Gong Yelei motioned for the others in the room to leave, and then said, "That's enough, who cares what the state pastor means? Who dares? And Jiangzhou can have no people, but not without the state pastor." ”

Dai Gu sat down dejectedly, and the murderous aura on his body disappeared without a trace. He is supreme in the Northern Route Army, but it is nothing in Bingjiangzhou, there are many people who are more noble than him, and it is not a big deal for those people to change a commander.

"What do you mean, what should I do?" he could hear Gong Yelei's words.

"Taking the initiative to carry this black cauldron is equivalent to helping the state pastor solve a trouble, and the state pastor will definitely find a way to thank you in the future. ”

"You were sent by the state pastor?" Dai Gu looked at Gong Yelei calmly.

Gong Yelei sat down opposite Dai Gu with an indifferent face, and said: "I can talk to Lord Zhou Mu, if I can do something good for everyone, I am willing to serve." ”

He didn't answer directly to Dai Gu, the matter of being a lobbyist for Jiangzhou Mu can't be passed on, at least he can't admit it personally, and Jiangzhou Mu won't admit it.

The invasion of the Shaodian army caused a great turmoil, two counties in their country were damaged, a lot of property was lost, and three legions were eliminated by the formation, and the total number of troops used by others was only three legions, which shows that the Shaodian country still has strong military strength in the war, and its country is not ready to confront it.

Last time, they counterattacked, but this time they took the initiative to attack, and the nature was completely different. If people want to beat you, they can beat you down, which means that the military strength of Shaodian is above that of your own country.

Some people say that their country did not use the most elite troops, but the Shaodian country did not use the main battle troops, and the elite royal army fought with the rebels on the battlefield of Wangzhou.

What would happen if they also drove to their own country?

Of course, are Ding Kui's troops the most elite? This question has also aroused heated discussions in Shaodian's country, and many people think that the strong crossbowmen are the most elite.

The matter of imitating the strong crossbow was put on the important agenda of the armament departments of the commanders' offices of the southern countries.

Strong crossbows are not so easy to imitate, there are too many high-grade materials in them, even if one or two are made, it is impossible to put them into mass production, but low-strength crossbows are much simpler, and the Shaodian National Equipment Department quickly imitated samples.

"If the Long family doesn't do this, other people will do it, in this case, it is better to let the Long family take the lead, at least we can exert influence so that things will not develop in the worst direction." Long Kun personally came to Ding Kui to explain.

It is now the end of December, Ding Kui has led a large army back to the country, each army has its own station, and Ding Kui has returned to Nanqiu County, where there are many important military and political affairs waiting for him to deal with.

"When I developed the crossbow, I had foreseen that the military would copy it, and now my factory can produce five thousand strong crossbows a month, which is enough to equip one legion in a year, and I hope that the equipment department will not mass-produce imitation crossbows so quickly. Ding Kui said he understood.

Long Kun's face was embarrassed, and he said: "The rebels are rampant, they have been attacking the capital of Zhenjing, and the Commander's Mansion urgently needs imitation crossbows to deal with the rebels, I can only guarantee that the imperial court will not use imitation crossbows against you in the short term." ”

"In this way, how much attack power does your imitation crossbow have?" Ding Kui was curious.

"Within two hundred meters, it is equivalent to a third-level combat power with all his strength. Long Kun replied truthfully. This was originally a military secret, and normally Ding Kui should never be told.

"Level 3 combat power, it's okay, the fine armor can defend against it. Ding Kui was relieved, "Godfather, if you buy technology from me, I will help you increase the killing distance to three hundred meters." ”

Anyway, people have already started to imitate it, so he simply was generous and took out the less critical technology to speculate, since he could sell the low-end crossbow of the Bai family of the Gu Yuan Empire, he could also sell it to his own military.

Of course Long Kun is willing to buy it, "This matter can't be paid for by the Long family, it has to be paid for by the Equipment Department, but it's a bit troublesome to buy it from you, I can't go back and say it directly, the court doesn't want to see you make money." "He's going to think about how to buy it.

"It's not simple, I'll say hello to the Jiang family, make a deal with you in Anguo County, and they will collect the money and transfer it to me. ”

Ding Kui expected that the Jiang family would not be offended by Shaodian, Jiang Xi's affairs were not clear, Jiang Li was still fighting with the rebels in Zhongwangzhou, and at this time, the Jiang family came forward to sell technology, and no one in the court would question it.

"You have a lot of ideas, your mother-in-law wants to see the magic lamp and the magic clock, you don't need me to buy these things, right?"

"Oh, you said it earlier! How dare the son-in-law dare to collect money for the things that honor your mother-in-law! Don't worry, if you leave two days late, I will let the apprentice make the best magic lamp for my mother."

However, I can't give a magic clock to my mother, can I? "How dare Ding Kui send the bell.

Shaodian people did not say that it was unlucky to send a bell before, but after the magic clock was made, many people did not have time to form this concept.

"Phew!" Long Kun reacted, "Here you go! This is the money to buy the magic clock." Three gold coins were thrown out of Ding Kui's face.

He didn't want to mention the stubble of the bell again, which was really not good.

Ding Kui grabbed the three gold coins lightly and said, "Qingyang Zizi's works can't be bought with money outside, let alone three gold coins, thirty gold coins can't do it, at least three hundred gold coins." ”

This is a fact, thanks to Ding Kui's guidance, he participated in the research and development of magic lamps and magic clocks, Qingyang Zi's status in the hearts of craftsmen is getting higher and higher, and he is only one step away from the craftsman.

Such an efficient use of the magic core has set a precedent in the craftsman world, and Qingyang Zi is fully qualified to be promoted to a craftsman god, but he claims that his teacher is not a craftsman god, and he will never call himself a craftsman god.

His teacher refers to Ding Kui, how can Ding Kui be a craftsman god, if he is also a martial god or a law god.

Ruan Xingzhu talked to him about Ding Kui as a god of law.

"You can't learn and practice other magic in the future, you must devote yourself to studying qi magic, otherwise it will be too bad to abuse your talent. ”

"What kind of talent? My talent is learning, and it doesn't hurt to learn more. Ding Kui didn't care.

"Your talent in space is higher than mine, you can definitely be promoted to Qi Rule Mage before me, and it is very possible to become a Dharma God in the future. Ruan Xingzhu showed that he hated iron but not steel.

"Taller than you?" Ding Kui couldn't believe it, "You are the son of the wind, and your cultivation of qi magic is far superior to me, where can you see that my talent is higher than yours?"

Ruan Xingzhu said very seriously: "No, I saw that you have used teleportation techniques, and your feeling of integrating into the space is very unique, according to the words of my master, that is, you wear a space marker, you can reach the point of the unity of man and space, and you will be able to cross the space at will in the future." ”

She is the darling of the wind element, not the darling of all qi elements, and is slightly weaker in terms of space, so it is very difficult to achieve the unity of man and emptiness.

"Am I so powerful?Have you ever heard of the God of Space?" Ding Kui remembered Ao Yan's words.

"Of course, our Divine Void Gate is a branch of learning the God of Space, who was once the highest power of mankind. Ruan Xingzhu's eyes flashed with infinite admiration.

Ding Kui asked, "So how many space gods have appeared in human history?"
