The whole city of Jiading has entered a wartime state, and Yixin Hardware has naturally changed accordingly.

And he is not worried about lack of sales, because he pursues quality and has become the number one workshop in Jiading.

Zhao Yang drank a lot of ink, so the name of this workshop is also wrinkled.

When Zhao Yang and the others went in, they saw Zhao Yang, Lei Jian, and Peng Shijun wearing linen shorts and aprons and starting work.

In front of this stove with a chimney, Peng Shijun pulled the bellows hard to continuously supply air to the stove.

Zhao Yang, Lei Jian and Zhu Hua raised three big hammers, took out a red-hot sword-like object from the stove with pliers, placed it on the big iron pier, and then they hammered it hard until sparks flew everywhere. shoot.

Hearing Zhao Chang's footsteps, Zhao Yang asked without raising his head, "Who are you?"

Zhao Chang said embarrassedly: "Second brother, third brother has come to ask for alms from second brother."

Zhao Yang wiped the sweat on his forehead with a blackened towel and said to Lei Jian and the others: "Take a rest."

After the four people wiped their sweat, an apprentice picked up the teapot and poured water for the four of them, and then picked up the water bowls for the four of them.

The four of them drank the entire bowl of water and breathed out a comfortable sigh.

Zhao Yang looked at Zhao Chang's braised meat and silver, and said, "Third brother, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

Zhao Chang looked at the ingot of silver and braised pork in his hand.

He said embarrassedly: "Second brother, these things are worthless. But your nephew will go to the battlefield tomorrow. He does not have complete armor and no sword. See if you can think of a way."

Zhao Yang looked at Zhao Yang again, nodded and said, "He is my nephew, why didn't you think of this?"

After saying that, he pointed at Tie Zhan's sword-like object and said, "You just thought of the sword now, so what should you do if you let your nephew go to the battlefield?"

Zhao Chang hated the fact that iron could not become steel. He glared at Zhao Yang and said, "The road has been paved for him, but he doesn't like studying. Instead, he likes to practice martial arts. I am really angry to death."

Zhao Yang ignored him, looked at Zhao Yang's half-armor, nodded narcissistically and said, "What a heroic young man, it reminds me of my youth."

Zhao Yang was very happy and found confidence in his second father.

After Zhao Yang encouraged Zhao Yang, he said to Zhao Chang: "Third brother, not only your family is going to be beaten, but the second brother is also going to be beaten."

Zhao Chang couldn't help being surprised and asked in astonishment: "Second brother, you only have two young ladies, do you want them to learn from Hua Mulan and join the army?"

How can this be.

Zhao Yang shook his head and said: "How can the second brother let your two nieces join the army like Hua Mulan? Although the second brother is already in his early thirties, he is an upright man and can still kill barbarians."

Having said this, Zhao Yang looked at Zhao Chang thoughtfully and said, "The Song Dynasty Zhonghua Newspaper said it well, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world."

At this point, he looked at the pile of forged weapons in front of him and sighed: "What's more, the Hu people have been besieging Jiading for more than a month and have not captured it. They will definitely vent their hatred when the time comes. The Hu people are cruel and massacre the city at every turn. Jiading City It’s our own people, don’t we guard our own city?”

Zhao Yang saw that Zhao Chang was deep in thought, looked at Peng Shijun and the others and said, "We also want to go to the city to defend. Now the commander-in-chief has said that we are craftsmen and cannot kill the goose to get the eggs."

Hearing that Zhao Yang didn't have to go to the tower to defend, Zhao Chang couldn't help but look envious.

Zhao Yang looked at Zhao Chang coldly and said, "However, if there is no one to defend the city tower, we will have to go up to the city tower. We don't want to be slaves to the country's subjugation, and we don't want to be a craftsman."

Speaking of this, he said firmly: "Instead of surviving in pain and humiliation, it is better to fight to the death with the barbarians."

Having said this, he looked at Lei Jian, Zhu Hua and Peng Shijun the same way.

The three people immediately replied: "Why endure the humiliation and live in vain, why not fight to the death?"

Zhao Yang nodded, then looked at Zhao Chang and said, "If you don't want to be a craftsman in the future, you can make your own choice."

Zhao Chang suddenly blushed and said bitterly: "Jiading has been resisting the Hu people for more than a month. According to the habits of the Hu people, massacre of the city is inevitable. Anyway, you will die, why not do it again."

Seeing that his brothers' fighting spirit was aroused, Zhao Yang nodded and looked at the ground and said, "There are weapons for you here. You can choose for yourself."

Zhao Yang couldn't help but be overjoyed. He didn't expect that his second father would actually help his father, who was always timid and fearful of getting into trouble.

He was about to step forward to choose a sword. Zhao Yang pointed to the sword that was still on the anvil and said, "I know you like swords. We made you a sword made of hundreds of refined steel."

After finishing speaking, he looked at his nephew Zhao Zehua.

Although Zhao Zehua is only twelve years old, he is already a talented person. He is particularly gentle, delicate and very lovable.

Zhao Zehua thought he was going to join the army, so he came over and said, "Second father, although my nephew is young, he also understands the truth of the destruction of a country and a family. I also want to join the army."

Zhao Yang shook his head and said: "Zhao Xiaoer is a student, so there is no need to let him go to the battlefield. After winning, let him go to Zhaojiazhuang Academy to study."

Having said this, he beat Zhao Chang, his brother-in-law and his aunt, and sighed and said: "Zhao Xiaoer is better than all of us. Whether our Zhao family can produce a scholar or even a Jinshi depends on whether you can fulfill your wish." "

Seeing Zhao Yang speak so seriously, Zhao Zhao turned around and said to Zhao Zehua, "Thank you, second father, for you are the hope of our family."

Zhao Yang nodded and said: "I know that your family is temporarily in difficulty. The second father is here to promise that if there is a need for help, the second father will not be vague."

Zhao Chang's expression changed drastically. He knew that Zhao Yang had always had this idea, but he didn't expect that he would make it clear.

He cannot succeed in this.

He blushed and said, "Second brother, I appreciate your kindness. Zhao Xiaoer has the ability to support him in his studies."

Speaking of this, he said very proudly: "The waiter is very popular with the teacher, and all fees are waived."

Everyone could not help but be stunned. They did not expect that Zhao Xiaoer was so popular with the teacher.

Zhao Yang liked it even more, nodded and said: "Xiao Er, the family's hope of becoming a Jinshi depends on you."

At this time, a tall young man came over and reported to Zhao Yang: "Father-in-law, a total of 688 swords and guns have been made today, which is nearly 90 more than yesterday."

Zhao Yang nodded and said to him: "Yes, you manage well. Wu Kai, pick two good swords and send them to Leng Xiangsi and Chen Captou. They have helped so much, and this favor must be returned." .”

Wu Kai nodded and sent someone to carefully select the sword.

As soon as Zhao Chang held back his hand, the second brother was paving the way for Zhao Yang and stepped forward to kick him.

Zhao Yang couldn't help but knelt down, kowtowed and said gratefully: "Thank you, second father, thank you, second father."

Zhao Yang looked at Zhao Yang and asked worriedly: "Chongyang, you are going to the battlefield tomorrow, are you afraid?"

Zhao Yang thought for a while and said: "Second father, if you say you are not afraid, you must be lying. But the barbarians have already attacked the city tower. Should we wait until the city is broken to go to the battlefield?"

Zhao Yang nodded and said to Wu Kai: "Bring that horse here."

Wu Kai's face was pale. He thought this good horse belonged to him and was hesitant.

Of course Zhao Yang knew what he meant and said, "If you want to join the army, this horse will be given to you."

Wu Kai was muttering to himself, if I go to the battlefield, aren't you afraid that your daughter will be widowed? But he didn't dare to say this.

He had no choice but to lead the horse unhappy.

Zhao Yang couldn't help but be overjoyed. He had been thinking about this horse for a long time, and his father would let him ride it when he was happy.

The second father is good, and the son-in-law didn't give it to him. Although he didn't say it would be given to him, the horse is now at least his own for the time being.

Zhao Yang couldn't help but draw out his sword, and his blood boiled for a moment: "Why don't you take Wu Gou and capture the fifty states in Guanshan?"

Zhao Yang looked at him for a few times, smiled and praised, "Since you have the ambition to make great achievements, well, I will give this horse to you."

Inside the Jiading magistrate, Yu Jie kept drinking drunken spring breeze while thinking deeply about today's situation.

Obviously, the barbarians have seen the effect of the poisonous smoke attack, and they will definitely continue to attack it tomorrow. What should they do?

Qin Yulong's cheerful voice came from outside and said: "Report to the commander-in-chief, Jiading Minzhuang has gathered five thousand people. There is no need to worry about the supply of troops tomorrow."

Zhu Wenbing put down the tea cup, immediately gave him a basin of cold water, and asked: "Have they been trained? Have they seen blood?"

Not to be outdone, Qin Yulong said: "Report to the governor, although they have not received formal training, many of them are proficient in martial arts, and some of them bring their own weapons and horses, which can be used by the people."

Zhu Wenbing looked at him and said coldly: "Those people have never seen blood. What if the camp is bombed?"

Qin Yulong gave his reasons and said: "Although they have not seen blood, behind them is their own home, as well as their wives and parents. Aren't they going to fight tooth and nail for their home?"

Zhu Wenbing shook his head and continued to express his worries: "They are really commendable for their enthusiasm. After all, people die on the battlefield. When they see their relatives and friends who were good yesterday suddenly die in front of them, they throw away their weapons. Run, what should I do?”

Qin Yulong still wanted to say a few words, but after all, he was still a scholar and didn't know how to deal with it. Besides, he was an official with his parents, and these were the people under his rule.

He can't kill anyone.

Yu Jie thought for a while and said: "This is not difficult. The five thousand soldiers are divided into two parts. One part has martial arts and goes directly to the battlefield, and the other part trains for three days."

Yu Jie naturally has corresponding methods for violating military discipline. "When necessary, a supervising team is sent out. They are civilians before they go on the battlefield, but they are soldiers when they go to the battlefield. They will naturally be dealt with according to military regulations."

Zhu Wenbing was the governor and was sent by the imperial court to supervise Yu Jie. Yu Jie must consider what he said.

This was a compromise plan that met the needs of both parties and was currently the most effective method. Zhu Wenbing thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
