Firearms in Daxia were widely used, and the power of artillery was overwhelming for a while, but relatively speaking, the application of firecrackers was much more limited.

Fireguns currently used in the military still use match ropes to ignite, which has many shortcomings.

In windy and rainy weather, the gunpowder in the fire door will either be blown away by the wind or wet by the rain, so that it cannot be fired. Sometimes the target is misplaced prematurely before aiming well.

Based on the limited memory of his previous life, Jia Cong combined the flintlock gun invented by Bi Maokang in the Ming Dynasty with early Western firearms, sketched and illustrated it, and handed it over to the royal family for secret development.

The Central Plains dynasty never lacked talents, and the level of royal worship was at least as high as that of Huangji Palace. It only took a few days to master the technology in the drawings, rub the barrel of the gun by hand, and put the sample in Jia Cong's head as quickly as possible. before.

If it weren't for insufficient productivity and limited time, not to mention a thousand flintlock guns, the emperor would have wanted to empty the inner treasury and arrange all the personal soldiers and guards of the three emperors in front of him.

The smell of gunpowder permeated the entire campus, and not many of the female relatives on the viewing platform could hold on. Even the good concubine, who was still clamoring to go on stage and stab Prince Wala to death, was biting her lips and turning pale.

The battle with a thousand people was already so brutal, but what about ten thousand people? What about 100,000 people?

The battle in the college grounds was determined by just one encounter. The Wala White Wolf Army had no way out after launching the charge.

The flintlock gun in Hu Ben'erlang's hand was generally accurate, but the advantage of the gun battle formation made the most of it.

After twelve rounds of shooting, no one of the thousand cavalry was spared, and they all fell in the open space fifty steps away.

The wailing and screaming in the field frightened the envoys of the vassal states to tremble. The countries such as Goryeo and other countries that had previously been clamoring to compete with Daxia stopped their activities and did not dare to say a word.

The Oara mission, which was inevitable at the beginning, has now become hysterical. They even clamored that Daxia used weapons to kill the Oara soldiers, and that the Celestial Empire had no mercy.

Yi Lan on the high platform looked gloomily at the white wolf flag soaked in blood in the school grounds, but hesitated to speak.

The people on the viewing platform had different thoughts. Wala's deputy envoy was accusing the Huben army of cruelty to Daxia officials: "Our country came here to repair peace between the two countries. Even if we compete, we can't kill them all... Now there are nearly 1,000 Wala. The warrior died here. If we don't give an explanation to our country, my king will definitely raise a million troops and go south to knock on the pass. When the time comes, there will be wars for thousands of miles, and ten houses will be empty..."

The clamor of the Wala people reached the ears of everyone. Some were disdainful, some were worried, and some were gloating about their misfortune.

Daiyu, who was sitting next to Liang Fei, turned her gaze to the high platform. Jia Cong, dressed in silver armor, holding the handle of the Yanling knife tightly in his left hand, stood solemnly on the right side of the Supreme Emperor.

"Sister Lin, are you okay?"

Daiyu withdrew her gaze and looked at Yingchun, whose eyes were full of worry.

Yingchun held Daiyu's cold hand. Both of them looked bad, but they held each other's hands tightly to give the other the courage to hold on.

The Wala delegation became more and more excited and their clamor became louder and louder. Daiyu suddenly straightened her chest and laughed: "How ridiculous? A thousand-watt elite was annihilated by my soldiers in just one encounter, and they dared to clamor for a million troops to go south to knock the pass? Yelang is arrogant, and he really doesn't know how high the sky is."

Daiyu first went to pay homage to Yingying at the general platform, and then shouted to the Huben troops below the platform: "Congratulations to Huben for the might of Daxia, congratulations to the generals of Daxia, and congratulations to the Celestial Empire!"

Infected by Daiyu's perseverance, Yingchun imitated Daiyu and straightened her chest and smiled: "Sister Lin is right, my dynasty has strong martial arts. As the daughter of a general, how can I not control the dynasty's power?"

The cheers for welcoming the new year are followed, and many of the generals and their wives on the viewing platform imitate their example.

After a brief surprise, Liang Fei Mo's face showed admiration. Just as she was about to praise her, she heard a girl on the left say displeasedly: "That's easy to say... Fight in the south of the city, die in the north of Guo, die in the wild." If you don’t bury the crow, you can eat it. Call it crow for me: and you are a guest! The water is deep and agitated, and the pampas grass is dark; the owl cavalry died in the battle, and the horse wandered and screamed. Wala came here to seek peace, and the bravery of our soldiers is true. , but now that so many Wala soldiers have died, if the Wala people are not given an explanation, then war will break out everywhere, and the hard-won stability of the country will be replaced by war."

The man first felt pity for others, then looked at Yingchun and Daiyu and said sarcastically: "As the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go ahead before the food and grass are moved, and they waste money and food by fighting at every turn. Today you kill me, and tomorrow I will kill you. What's the point of fighting and killing? What time is it? You military generals are naturally looking forward to the war, and when the time comes, you will be promoted and rich, but have you ever thought about those innocent soldiers and the people who died in the flames of war? "

Daiyu and Yingchun hadn't responded yet, and Tu Siqi, who was sitting on top of them, was the first to explode.

She was about to take out a whip and throw it away, but found that she was dressed up for a ceremony today, so she didn't bring it with her.

So I could only say something murderous: "The people of the Fan family are really the dogs of ***. Since Miss Fan feels sorry for ***, why don't I ask the emperor's uncle to give you a title so that you and your relatives can promote the marriage between Qin and Jin Dynasty?" How's it going?"

"you……"

Miss Fan immediately blushed at the rebuke: "Even if you want to get married, Princess Tu should go there. As a relative of the emperor and being supported by the court, shouldn't you make a contribution to share your worries?"

"According to this, isn't your father, Shilang Fan, also carrying the court's bowl, and he should share the worries of the emperor's uncle?"

Tu Siqi sneered again and again, and stood up to walk towards the general stage: "Don't worry, Miss Fan, for the sake of your dedication to the country and the people, I will definitely convince the emperor's uncle to canonize you as a princess and marry you to Wala!" "

Pfft...

The solemn and solemn atmosphere in the school grounds was broken by the sudden change, and many of the female relatives of the military commanders couldn't help laughing.

The good concubine Mo Shi spoke up to stop Tu Siqi's nonsense: "Stop making trouble, the winner has been decided, and the grand parade is about to end."

Oara's White Wolf Army was almost completely wiped out, and the remaining dozens of wounded were carried off. The Imperial Army was still so skilled at washing the ground. In less than two-quarters of an hour, in addition to blood and water that was difficult to clean, the school ground was left. , only the high-spirited and mighty Tiger and Ben warriors are left.

"Your Majesty has a decree..."

Snapped!

Thousands of Tiger Ben warriors in the audience placed their right hands neatly across their breastplates. Xia Shouzhong shook off the dust and shouted: "Hu Ben'er Lang is brave and brave. I am very relieved. I give the Tiger Ben army a white tiger flag to show the Tiger Ben's might. The Ministry of War records the merits according to the system. As a reward, generals will be promoted to one level and soldiers will be promoted to one level to reward military merits."

"Long live Long live Long live!"

Huben shouted long live, and the other Daxia soldiers of the 14th Battalion outside the school grounds also shouted.

But the emperor raised his hand, his command was silent, and all the troops stopped.

Xia Shouzhong took out a scroll of jade scrolls with colorful dragon patterns from the tray in the hands of the chamberlain behind him, and opened it in turn.

"Rong En Bojia pardoned the decree..."

Um?

Jia She walked to the stage. Because of his armor, he knelt down and clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, Jia She, respectfully listens to the edict!"

"The imperial edict says: I heard that Wen Anbang and Wu Dingguo, the first priority in military preparation is the bravery of the generals, and the second priority is the advantage of the weapons. You presented the method of military formations to control the new army, and used the magic soldiers to strengthen the power of the army. I have done a great job, don't you think? How can I not reward you? I ennoble you to be a powerful military official and a marquis of the country for the purpose of promoting the good fortune of Tianyi, and I am specially granted the honorary title for three generations before you surrender..."

Master Pardon had already speculated that if Hu Ben could frighten everyone today, the emperor would definitely reward himself and his son for his dedication to military formations and firearms manufacturing. However, he did not expect that the emperor would add his son's rewards to himself.

And he was given such a shocking reward!

Marquis of the country, when he was granted the title of uncle last year, Master Pardon already felt that his life would stop here, but he didn't want happiness to come so suddenly.

Not only Jia She himself was confused, but Jia Cong, who was standing next to the Supreme Emperor, was also a little confused, not to mention the civil and military officials on both sides and the female family members on the viewing platform.

The match between Wala and Daxia was a temporary suggestion by Yi Lan, but the imperial edict clearly meant that he had already prepared for it.

Only then did the ministers realize that the postponement of this year's hunt and the coming of the vassal kingdoms to the court had actually been planned by the emperor and even the two saints.

The review when Huben's army formed an army was obviously left behind. Today is the real moment for Huben to show his power. A battle shocked everyone. The emperor is so calculating!

The pardon master didn't even know how he received the order. Yilan, the eldest prince of Wala, left with his people with a gloomy face.

After arriving at the main campus, the other countries also returned to their camps in fear.

The Great Xia army is so powerful, and now that they have such a magic weapon, the plan they had planned when they arrived must be changed.

This morning's parade is over, but the hunting plan for Tienwang Mountain set by the Ministry of Rites has just begun.

There will be a banquet given by the emperor at noon. The smell of blood has not dissipated here, so naturally it will not be placed here.

The saint drove back to the camp, and everyone gathered behind him.

Jia Cong and the old man took leave and hurried back to Jia's camp.

Master Pardon was confused as he held the imperial edict, accompanied by Yingchun, Daiyu and Qin Keqing.

The expressions of the four people were similar. This edict was really amazing, and it suddenly extended the prosperity of the Jia family for more than a hundred years.

What do the families of three generations of princes represent?

Jia Lian, Jia Lian's son, Jia Lian's grandson...

As long as they don't do anything outrageous, the Jia family will be at the forefront of the top noble families in Great Xia within a hundred years.

"Brother Cong, dad doesn't want to take your credit. Your Majesty said this is to protect you."

"My son knows!"

Jia Cong smiled and bowed: "Son, congratulations to dad on being granted the title of Marquis..."

"Congratulations to my father (uncle, great-uncle) for being granted the title of Marquis!"

The three girls bowed down together, and the laughter in the camp spread to the nearby tent with the wind, making many people's eyes turn purple with envy.

Before and after the luncheon, there was an endless stream of people coming to the Jia family camp to congratulate them. Jia Rong was listening to the order in front of the emperor. Jia Cong was the only one left in the camp, and he almost stopped laughing.

Fortunately, Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian came to help, and finally passed more than a difficult hour. The newly promoted Madam Hou, Mrs. Xing, brought Yingchun, Daiyu and Qin Keqing to entertain the female family members who came to congratulate her. Although they were in a hurry, nothing went wrong. .z.

That is, many people began to inquire about weddings in the Spring Festival, and they often mentioned marriage in their words. Mrs. Xing knew that she could not be the host of the Spring Festival. After finally sending the guests away, she cautiously informed Master Pardon of the matter.

"Don't say you can't make the decision. Only San'er can make the decision about the second girl's marriage..."

Mrs. Xing mentioned a few people who are obviously interested today, but there are also a few people who can take a fancy to them.

But Master Shengda smiled bitterly and said: "San'er has been close to Er Yatou since childhood. If her marriage cannot satisfy San'er, I'm sure he will cause a huge stir. Don't mention this matter now. I'll ask San'er later. Meaning. The two girls have reached the age of seeing each other, so it’s not a problem to delay..."

Dong dong dong dong...

War drums sounded from time to time outside the camp, and after the parade, the hunt began.

Starting today, there will be a hunting competition for three consecutive days. All sons and nephews of civil and military officials in Beijing can participate in the hunting. Three days later, everyone will be ranked according to their prey, and ten winners will be determined, and both saints will award them.

Of course, this time it was not just a hunting contest, but also a martial arts contest between the soldiers of the 15th battalion, the women's family's chess, calligraphy and painting, hu-throwing and polo competitions.

After Jia Cong had lunch, he went to the imperial court to listen to orders. Tu Siqi took the three Yingchun people to Liang Fei's place, and it was said that they wanted to sign up for the competition.

Especially for the poetry competition that Miss Fan, whom she was quarreling with today, signed up for, Tu Siqi worked hard and finally wrote Daiyu's name on the competition list.

Jia Cong was sitting in the Emperor's tent, a little absent-minded. Liu Hong rubbed the little fat man's head and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Is it because you are unhappy that your father didn't give you a reward?"

"ah?"

Jia Cong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Of course not. I know that Your Majesty is doing this to protect me. The beauty of the forest will be destroyed by the wind. A young boy like me has actually made such a magical weapon. If the news spreads, what will happen to me?" Maybe one day when I go out, I will be put in a sack and taken away.”

"Then what are you thinking about? I called you several times but you didn't respond."

The old man also became interested and asked, "You were absent-minded as soon as you came in. Did something happen to you?"

Jia Cong looked outside the emperor's tent and saw that the emperor's tent was full of ministers from the vassal state.

"Sage, I listen to the Minister of Etiquette

People said that this time the leader of the Ryukyu Kingdom also came. He had quietly avoided the Japanese people earlier and cried out to the court to send troops to quell the chaos and eliminate the bandits. "

The Supreme Emperor nodded, his expression serious.

He was a little angry and snorted coldly: "If it weren't for the weakness of the navy, how could I have allowed clowns like Japan to survive to this day?"

Jia Cong also nodded and sighed. Daxia's military equipment was extremely strong, but its strength was in land warfare. The navy had not yet reached a sufficient scale. As a result, the Japanese secretly invaded Daxia's vassal states but were unable to defeat the thieves.

"Goryeo also danced very well. The spies of the Dragon Guards sent secret guards. Goryeo secretly colluded with the Liaodong Jurchens and had great intentions of invading Liaodong."

The Emperor told Jia Cong another piece of news, which made Jia Cong very angry.

I saw the old man burst into laughter after being angry, looked at Jia Cong and said with admiration: "You have done me a favor today. The whole army was wiped out in less than two quarters of an hour with a thousand watts. The might of our army shocked all nations. Those Koreans are intimidating." They can't even stand up anymore. In a short time, they will behave themselves and don't dare to jump anymore."
