Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the room and saw the white world outside. Zhao Xuanyi sighed, is it winter again? The days passed by day by day, much faster than I thought!
When Shen Wei saw Zhao Xuanyi coming out, he hurriedly ran over, "Young Master, are you okay?"
"Almost, this month has almost made me sick! Prepare a car!"
"Where to go?"
"Go to the barracks!"
"Military camp? Say goodbye. With Wang Yunlong, Wang Yunchuan and Nangong Che, they should be fine!" Shen Wei said.
"I'm not going to see them, I'm going to see Huo Zhigang!"
After Shen Wei heard this, he didn't say anything and immediately prepared the carriage. Zhao Xuanyi, accompanied by Shen Wei, went to the military camp together. Zhao Xuanyi was wearing a white leather jacket and looked at the capital that had changed color outside. He couldn't help but sigh. The cold sky It didn't make Zhao Xuanyi feel cold, but the vast white world made Zhao Xuanyi feel inexplicably desolate!
The streets of the capital are still busy with traffic and countless pedestrians! The vendors on both sides of the street were still shouting hard and seemed not to be affected by the weather!
When Zhao Xuanyi came to the military camp and got off the carriage, he saw that all the Qilin Guards and border guards were training. Some were practicing boxing, some were practicing archery, and some Qilin Guards were practicing climbing the city wall. Everyone was trying to Prepare for the war that is yet to come!
When Wang Yunlong, Wang Yunchuan, Su Xiaoding, Nangong Che and others saw Zhao Xuanyi coming, they all couldn't run away and came to Zhao Xuanyi and said, "See the Duke!"
Zhao Xuanyi waved his hand, "Everyone, get up! I just came over to see if I have anything to do. How is the situation in the military camp?"
"There is no problem. Sufficient food and grass for the winter have been prepared, and cotton-padded clothes have been distributed. Now the brothers are training every day!" Wang Yunlong said.
"Tan Beiping went to his hometown?"
"Yes, after receiving the order, I will go to my hometown to train the new soldiers there!"
"Very good! Where is Huo Zhigang? Take me to have a look!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly.
"Your Majesty, please!" Wang Yunlong and a group of people led Zhao Xuanyi to the back mountain, where Huo Zhigang's coffin was buried and a tombstone was erected.
Zhao Xuanyi came to Huo Zhigang, stretched out his hand to sweep away the snowflakes on the tombstone, and then patted the tombstone gently, "Brother, I'm sorry! It took me so long to see you, it's really inconvenient! I'll take you back to the military camp, you It’s like the fallen leaves have returned to their roots!”
"From now on, you will watch these boys train for me every day. If you don't like it, remember it. Come over at night to give them dreams and encourage them. If you can scare a few to death, I will count it as a great achievement for you. The next day I’ll burn gold ingots for you!”
A few words made Wang Yunlong and others laugh, but the smile seemed very weak.
Zhao Xuanyi lit three sticks of incense and placed them on the incense burner in front of the tombstone. Then he stood up and looked at Wang Yunlong, "From now on, I will arrange for someone to offer incense to my brother every day. Don't forget it!"
"Yes, don't worry!" Wang Yunlong nodded and said.
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the military camp, and Nangong Che came over, "My lord, you happened to be here today. I have a few things for you!"
"Give it to me? What?" Zhao Xuanyi asked curiously.
"Bring it up!" Following Nangong Che's order, after hearing the sound of horse hooves, a unicorn chariot slowly drove out.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at it carefully and couldn't help but smile, "It's done!" He made two unicorn chariots, one for Tang Mi and one for Zhu Yuejun, so he has been waiting to let Zhang Han make one for him. One, finally made today!
"My lord, although it looks similar to the one you had before, I have made some changes on the inner wall. Let's go take a look!"
"It's done!" Zhao Xuanyi walked into the chariot accompanied by Nangong Che. He looked up and saw that his previous chariot had three mechanism handles, but this time it was upgraded and there were five!
"My lord, in addition to the three mechanisms you had before, I have added two more. This fourth handle is heavenly thunder and earthly fire! Do I need to show it to you?"
"Can!"
Nangong Che stuck his head out of the window, "Get out of the way, be careful of getting hurt!"
Shen Wei was talking to himself while in the car, "What do these crazy people have?"
When Nangong Che saw that there were not many people in the car, he took off the fourth wrench. He saw two arm-thick iron pipes on the southeast, northwest and northwest of the roof. After the wrench was pulled, a total of sixteen iron pipes were shot out from inside. A grenade, and the lead had been pulled out after the grenade was fired!
[Boom boom boom...! ] There was a deafening sound, and the ground 20 meters away from the carriage was blown up into dust. The sound was loud!
Zhao Xuanyi was very satisfied after seeing it. "It's good, but if it is stored for a long time, these grenades will not explode due to looseness, right? Then I will suffer!"
"Don't worry, Lord, I have modified the grenades on the roof of the car so they will never spontaneously ignite. Moreover, these extra bombs are not the only ones installed. The fourth handle also has a second mechanism!" Nangong Che placed the fourth handle. Push the handle up and pull it down again, only to see eight more balls shot out!
But what was fired this time was not a grenade, but a black smoke bomb. After the eight smoke bombs fell to the ground, thick smoke instantly appeared. Within a few seconds, the carriage was surrounded by dark rooms, and no one could see inside. arrive!
Zhao Xuanyi liked it very much. If it turned out like this, outsiders wouldn't be able to shoot through the carriage or catch anyone if they shot arrows! very good! "Yes, I didn't expect this design at the time. What is this fifth wrench?"
"This fifth one is a weapon, look!" Nangong Che put down the fifth wrench and heard the sound of mechanical gears. Then two weapons similar to crossbows suddenly popped up under the left and right windows, but the overall size was very small. , only about half a meter long!
"Did you make the crossbow smaller?" Zhao Xuanyi asked in surprise.
"Yes, it has been reduced, but the power is also reduced. The effective distance is only about 100 meters, which is enough to attack close enemies. Moreover, I also put the method of using the repeating crossbow on the crossbow machine. When the time comes, just grab the crossbow with your left hand. Machine, grab the handle on the side with your right hand, like this!"
After Nangong Che finished speaking, he grabbed the body of the crossbow with his left hand to control the direction, and grabbed the handle on the right with his right hand, and then pushed the handle back and forth. Arrows about 20 centimeters long were shot out continuously.
Zhao Xuanyi was very surprised when he saw it. It turned out that he had also changed the firing method of the crossbow. Zhao Xuanyi took it and started shooting it himself. He shot a few arrows and found it to be more effortless and smoother than his own crossbow!
"That's great, you are really amazing!"
Nangong Che smiled, "My lord, I won't be able to make the crossbow without your crossbow. You are still awesome!"
"How much arrow capacity does this crossbow have?"
"Eighty, I'm still storing 320 under the seats on both sides. When the time comes, just take out the arrow storage box and replace it with a new one!" Nangong Che said and demonstrated again. !
This is just like reloading a large-caliber machine gun. Zhao Xuanyi is very satisfied: "Not bad, I like this carriage very much! Thank you for your hard work!"
"Don't dare! It's an honor to serve the Duke!"
"Okay, I'll make another one when I have time in the future, and I'll keep it and give it away!"
"Send it away? My lord, these are all the secrets of the Qilin Guard's weapons!"
"Don't worry, I can't give it to ordinary people and opponents. Just do as you ask. If you need money, just tell Brother Shen!"
"Yes! By the way, the Fangtian painted halberds with hidden mechanisms that you ordered have also been made, six in total!"
"Beautiful, I'll take it away as soon as it's put in the car!"
"Yes, in addition... Duke, I have an idea!"
"Well, tell me!"
"That's it. Every time we charge, our brothers have soft armor to protect us, but the horses only have a half-face mask on their heads, which makes it difficult to block arrows. To be honest, we are Qilin Guards and we are all cavalry, and horses are the most important. Most importantly, it can increase mobility, so I always want to make a suit of armor for these war horses!"
"If you equip your horse with equipment, it will not be afraid of arrows when charging, and it will not be afraid of swords and guns in close combat, which can greatly increase its combat effectiveness!"
Zhao Xuanyi touched his chin, "I've thought about this too! It's not that I'm reluctant to give up money. To be honest, how many sets of armor can a horse replace? But the problem is that the steel is too heavy and will affect the horse's running speed after wearing it!"
"What if we don't use steel?" Nangong Che asked.
"No steel? What to use?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"We use the enemy's method, put sand inside the leather, cover most of the horse like a saddle, and then add steel arm guards to the limbs of the horse, so that even in close combat, it can have some effect. effect!"
Zhao Xuanyi was shocked after hearing this and nodded immediately, "Yes, this is a good idea. I'll leave this matter to you. If you need anything, apply directly to Brother Shen. I'm not afraid of spending money, but I have to spend it wisely!"
"Yes, don't worry, Duke, I will not let you down!" Nangong Che said excitedly!
During a tour of the military camp, Zhao Xuanyi checked the soldiers' internal affairs, as well as various weapon maintenance, food and military supplies, etc.
"Wang Yunlong, it is already winter and everyone is cold. Now it is stipulated that every ten days, the soldiers must be given a meal of pork. It must be nutritious! This is an order!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Yes! But my lord, will the border guards also give it to us? We have more than 100,000 people here, and we will eat a lot of pigs in this meal!"
"Here! I, Zhao Xuanyi, am not short of money! All brothers will give it to me. I relied on the border guards to make my fortune back then, so don't neglect me!"
"yes!"
"And it's winter now. When the river in the east freezes into ice, Japan will be my battlefield. These border guard brothers will go out with me when the time comes, so we can't treat them badly!"
"Understood!" Wang Yunlong said.
After checking everything, Zhao Xuanyi took his brand new Kirin chariot out of the military camp and went home. When the Kirin chariot entered the capital, everyone moved out of the way. No one in the capital knew that this was Zhao Xuanyi's. Chariot, who dares to provoke the current Protector of the Country if he doesn’t want to live?
Zhao Xuanyi looked at the people on the street with a smile on his face. There is no war now, and he is so peaceful every day. He has a hot pot when it's cold, and his wife warms the bed at night. How happy!
When the carriage arrived at the entrance of Changlin Grain Store, Zhao Xuanyi shouted, "Brother Shen, stop the car!"
Shen Wei hurriedly grabbed the four horses and looked at the grain store next to him. Shen Wei naturally knew why Zhao Xuanyi stopped. Then he helped Zhao Xuanyi get out of the car and walked into the grain store!
After coming in, I saw a few people buying grain and a few waiters helping. Qin Jinyi was standing behind the counter doing calculations, not noticing Zhao Xuanyi coming at all.
Du Xinyu saw Zhao Xuanyi coming and hurriedly ran over from the side: "Husband, you are here!"
"Here you go, how are you? Are you tired?"
"If you're not tired, I'll just take care of the goods and things nearby. You don't need me to move things! There are servants here!" Du Xinyu said with a smile.
When Qin Jinyi heard the two talking, she raised her head and saw Zhao Xuanyi at a glance. She hurriedly put down the pen in her hand and walked over, "Mr. Zhao, why are you here? How is your health?"
"It's better, Qin Jinyi's business is good!"
"It's better that Mr. Zhao helped me choose. People come to buy this food every day. It's really a good business!"
Zhao Xuanyi turned his head and saw Zhu Wenyu looking at a bag of rice placed on the side of the goods: "Open this, I see that the rice over there is almost sold out!"
"Yes!" said the guy on the side.
Zhao Xuanyi laughed when he saw it, "These seventh brothers have turned into workers!!"
"Here to help every day!! No wages required!" Du Xinyu said with a smile.
Zhao Xuanyi looked at Qin Jinyi, but Qin Jinyi smiled slightly and said nothing! !
"Hey, brother, you can get out of bed!" Zhu Wenyu came over, patted the dust on his body and said.
"Fortunately, you, a dignified prince, are overqualified to work as a porter here, right?" Zhao Xuanyi deliberately teased!
