Chapter 55 Good things happen one after another Wu Liu rested overnight after the handover, and took his people back to Chang'an on the second day, and at the same time took Li Zhen's adjustment of the future arrangement, because of the delay of the war, his arrangement also had to be partially adjusted.
Wu Liu left, but the five cannons he left behind caused a sensation in the entire barracks.
After seeing the power of artillery, everyone firmly believes that artillery will definitely occupy a place in future wars, and it is not impossible to even become the protagonist of the battlefield.
Therefore, the entire Dingxiang army, from the general to the fire head army, everyone was full of enthusiasm for artillery.
This is the reason why Li Zhen developed the breech gun directly, instead of taking it slowly step by step.
Starting from scratch can certainly accumulate more experience in cannon casting and train more mature craftsmen.
But in the same way, the first cannon was too scum, not only was the range so close that it was miserable, but even the cannonballs could only fire the most basic solid cannonballs - the power was not as strong as that of trebuchets, so what was the use of such a cannon?
Who will be eye-catching?
Others can't look down on you, how do you make others optimistic about your future?
Others are not optimistic, why should they support you?
But now it's different, Li Zhen directly started the breech cannon, which is extremely powerful, as long as anyone who sees it knows that in the future war, the cannon will definitely be able to occupy a place.
When a weapon is favored from top to bottom, is the future of this weapon still in sight?
Therefore, once the artillery battalion begins training, it is always surrounded by people watching, some of them may just be watching the excitement, and some of them are studying in secret.
However, because of the limited time, Li Zhen brought 300 shells last time, but after only a few days of training, the artillery training had to be turned to theoretical study because of the lack of elixir.
This time it was different, although there were only six cannons, the shells brought by Wu Liu were enough for the artillerymen to fight until they were old - provided that the life of the cannons was enough.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, now that there are enough shells, let's go and fire the cannons, shall we?"
Li Zhen was sleeping fragrantly, and Fang Yiai broke in and shouted.
"Shut up, I'll tear your mouth apart if you talk again."
Li Zhen opened her eyes unhappily and shouted, it is terrible to get up.
"Oh!"
Fang Yiai immediately shut up.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, we ......"
Finally, Fang Yiai shut up, Li Zhen had just cleared up for a while, and Xue Rengui broke in again.
"What are you doing?
Still don't let people sleep?
Li Zhen was furious again and smashed the pillow at Xue Rengui.
"Oh."
Xue Rengui dodged away from the pillow, and then continued to shout, "Your Highness, our killing technique has been preliminarily created. ” "Uh, oh, ah?
Created!!!!
In an instant, Li Zhen's voice was even higher than Xue Rengui's: "Why is it so fast?"
” Xue Rengui also said excitedly: "Thanks to His Highness, after our all-night research, the compilation of the killing technique is much smoother than we imagined, not only did we not encounter difficulties halfway, but it was like divine help, and now it has been preliminarily studied, and the rest is just the carving of subtleties, which can be completed in less than a day." ” "Great."
Li Zhen clapped his hands and laughed: "God really help me, Xue Li stepped forward to listen to the order." ” "Yes."
"Xue Rengui, you have been successful in writing books, you have worked hard, and your achievements are great, and you are specially appointed to be the commander of the palace in the account of the king of Yue, and receive two thousand personal guards in the account, and give you one hundred taels of gold, three thousand taels of silver, one hundred hectares of fertile land, five hundred horses of silk, ten treasure blades, and a number of treasures."
Hearing Li Zhen promise such a heavy reward, Xue Rengui immediately excused himself and said: "The killing technique is His Highness's idea, and it is the twenty old pawns who directly compile the killing technique, and the subordinates only play the role of integration and induction, such a heavy reward is too much, and the subordinates will never dare to accept it." ” "No, you deserve it."
Li Zhen said categorically: "Although you are just inductive, but without you, my ideas can only become empty talk on paper, and the contributions of twenty old pawns can only become children's graffiti, although my reward is heavy, but you deserve it."
Besides, if I don't reward you heavily, what will I do with the reward of the twenty old soldiers?
” "This ......"
Xue Rengui heard the same reason, hesitated for a moment and said: "The reward minister can be received, but the position of the pawn army is too important, and the ceremony has not made an inch, and it may be difficult to convince the public if he rashly takes over, and I ask His Royal Highness to take back his order." ” Fang Yiai also said beside him: "Your Highness, what the benevolent and virtuous brother said is reasonable, and the prince's account is an official position on the fifth grade, and it can only be appointed by the emperor, is it a bit inappropriate for you to appoint it personally?"
” "Of course I know, but I didn't say that I would let him take office now, I just promised him now, and I will ask my father for an appointment when I go back."
Li Zhen said as a matter of course, he was not stupid enough to appoint an official position privately, and comforted Xue Rengui: "As for the merit of Rengui, you can rest assured, just by virtue of this killing technique, your merit is great, and when the whole army learns this killing technique, you will be the teacher of the whole army, who dares to disobey you?"
And just by virtue of this merit, it is light to make you a marquis, what is a mere five-grade army?
By the way, speaking of titles, you can completely rely on this killing technique to become a marquis, and I will personally ask for it for you when the time comes. ” "That's right, Rengui congratulates you."
Fang Yiai said to Xue Rengui with an envious face: "You have to treat us to a good meal this time." ” "Well, this ......"
Xue Rengui was speechless.
"Okay, what so much nonsense?

Rengui hurriedly took me to have a look.
Li Zhen said that she was about to leave, but was stopped by Fang Yiai: "Your Highness, then you are gone, what about the cannon?"
Don't go to training anymore?
” "Of course, but I've taught them almost everything I should have handed over to them, and the rest is to let them play accurately and maintain it later."
Li Zhen turned around and said, "How to be accurate can let Zhong Zhixiang teach, his current knowledge of mathematics is enough for him to temporarily take my place."
As for maintenance, maintenance is not done every day anyway, and I also let them watch it when I maintained Raytheon 1 before, and you can also let them try to maintain it themselves.
Anyway, I can't go today, so you can go by yourself. ” "Well, that's all there is to it."
Fang Yiai knew that what Li Zhen wanted to see most was the birth of the killing technique, so he could only nod and leave.
"Let's go, let's go see the killing technique."
"Your Highness, please first." ......
"This is the first version of the killing technique, which of you will show me a demonstration?"
"Wang Dewei is willing to demonstrate for His Highness."
Wang Dewei stood up first.
"That's right."
"Huh!"
Wang Dewei took out the Tang knife and directly began to demonstrate, the initial version of the killing technique has a total of nine moves.
Among them, the footwork is listed as a separate move, which is integrated with Wang Dewei's turn step and Liu Laoliu's flash step plus the experience of the rest of the people, which is not only more labor-saving to use, but also more dexterous between tossing and turning, and what is even more rare is that there are only six variations of this set of footwork, as long as you are not a fool, there is basically no problem with learning.
In addition to footwork, Xie Yu's strength enhancement technique has a separate move, this move is mainly to increase people's strength, which can suddenly explode when facing the enemy, which can play a role in surprise, and has a blessing effect on the remaining seven moves, which is considered an auxiliary move.
In addition to footwork and strengthening, the remaining seven moves of killing are called armor breaking, spear breaking, knife breaking, arrow breaking, fist breaking, hammer breaking, and horse breaking.
There are six different types of weapons or enemies corresponding to shields, halberds, swords, arrows, fists and feet, hammers and axes, and cavalry, so that the soldiers can make the most reasonable response when facing the above weapons.
Although it is impossible for people to completely survive in the face of the above weapons, these responses can save people's lives to the greatest extent.
What's even more rare is that these nine martial arts have one thing in common, that is, they are very easy to learn, among all the moves, there are the most changes in footwork, but there are only eight variations, and the rest are like armor piercing There are only two variations, and there are only four variations of arrows, etc.
Such a simple martial art, even if it is taught to a foolish person, it can almost be mastered after a few months of practice, and it is the most suitable martial art to be promoted in the army.
In addition, these moves are very practical, in all the tricks, none of them are superfluous, all of them are deadly and ferocious moves, if you can kill people with one point of strength, you will never use two points, and if you can kill the enemy with one knife, you will not use two.
So the whole set of killing techniques has no beauty at all, and it looks very bad, but although it doesn't look very good, it can best save lives on the battlefield, and this is enough.
"Bang Bang!"
After watching Wang Dewei's demonstration, Li Zhen couldn't help but applaud and praised: "It's really practical, I know that I didn't find the wrong person, everyone has worked hard, and everyone comes forward to listen to it." ” "Yes."
Everyone was overjoyed, knowing that it was time to reward their deeds.
Li Zhen said solemnly: "Everyone has done their best to kill the arts, and now that it is done, I can't chill everyone's hearts, in addition to the reward promised to you in advance, each person will be rewarded with ten taels of gold and one hundred taels of silver, and I can also promise you a request, as long as I can do it and not violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty, I will definitely help you achieve it." ” No one thought that Li Zhen would make such a promise, and they all looked at each other immediately.
If the previous reward was an affirmation of them, it was worthy of their hard work, but the last reward was so heavy that the whole tent became audible and silent.
In the end, Xie Yu had the courage to ask, "Is this ......
Your Highness, is it okay to wish for anything?
” "Xie Yu, what are you doing?"
Wang Dewei scolded, and the rest of the people also glared at Xie Yu angrily, His Royal Highness is willing to promise you, it is a gift from His Highness, but you can't know what to do.
Li Zhen waved her hand to indicate that it was okay, and said with a smile: "Of course it's true, as long as I can do it and don't violate the laws of the Tang Dynasty, it's okay." ” "Then I dare to make a request."
Xie Yu seemed to have made up his mind, and suddenly his knees were playing, and he fell directly to the ground, crying and saying: "Your Highness, Lao Xie used to be a fighter, not to mention that people looked down on us, even we looked down on ourselves."
But......
But Your Highness, you are different, not only treat us as human beings, but also treat us well......
Lao Xie has been in a mess all his life, but at the end of his life, he found that he was still the happiest in the past few days, why he was happy, just because His Highness treated us as human beings.
My Lao Xie is a rough person, I don't know what the big truth is, I don't know what it means to repay virtue with kindness, and I don't know what it means to die as a confidant, but we also know that it's good, His Royal Highness is good to Lao Xie, and Lao Xie should give his life to His Highness.
So Lao Xie's request is very simple, that is, I want to ask His Royal Highness to take Lao Xie into the account, whether it is to be a soldier or a slave, I Lao Xie has accepted it. ” "Xie Yu......"
Li Zhen was shocked when he heard this, he just treated everyone with the habits of later generations, but he didn't expect that in this feudal society where people eat people, this move would bring such a big touch.
At the same time, he also understood that it was no wonder that none of his subordinates had ever betrayed him.
For example, Wu Liu, who was put on his neck with a knife by the people of the Han Palace, still did not let go.
It's not that he is not afraid of death, but because he dies for his confidants, although he is not too close to them in his heart, but it is just a little bit of inadvertent equal treatment that makes them remember it.

"If a person dies for a confidant, please take it in with His Royal Highness."
Li Zhen was still touched, but after listening to Xie Yu's words, Wang Dewei and others, who were greatly moved, suddenly knelt down and begged Li Zhen to take him in.
"This ......"
Li Zhen was a little embarrassed, he really hadn't encountered this kind of thing, and couldn't help but look at Xue Rengui.
"Your Highness, everyone is also loyal, please ask Your Highness to take them in."
Xue Rengui hurriedly knelt down and pleaded.
"Since everyone is willing to follow me, then I am naturally welcome, but I am just a prince, if you follow me, at most you will be able to become a member of the Yue Wang's Inner Mansion or the Family Mansion, and if you want to become a general, this is basically impossible."
Although I would love to accept them, there are some things that still need to be explained.
"Your Highness, please rest assured that your subordinates are not following Your Highness for promotion."
Wang Dewei raised his head and pleaded: "Let's just talk about my subordinates, I have been in the army for 12 years, there are no less than 20 battles of all sizes, and I will be beheaded at the 100th level, and now I am just a long history of Zuo Wei Weiyu, only six grades, and it has reached the limit, and my subordinates have no intention of being promoted." ” "Yes, Your Highness, so are your subordinates, I beg Your Highness to take it in."
"I beg your Highness to take you in."
"I beg your Highness to take you in."
"I beg your Highness to take you in." “......”
"In that case, then I will speak to the chief steward and transfer you all to my account."
Li Zhen hurriedly agreed: "Don't knock it." ” "Thank you Your Highness for taking me in, your subordinates will do their best to protect Your Highness in the future, and whoever dares to hurt Your Highness will step over my old Xie's corpse."
Xie Yu kowtowed again, slashed his palm with a dagger, and swore as he swore as he slashed his palm.
"Yes, whoever dares to hurt His Highness a single hair, first step over the corpse of my Liu Lao Liu."
Liu Lao Liu also followed the oath, and at the same time cut his palm.
"Whoever dares to hurt His Highness will step over my corpse first." +3 for slicing palms.
"Whoever dares to hurt His Highness will step over my corpse first." +4 for Slit Palm.
"Whoever dares to hurt His Highness will step over my corpse first." +5 for Slit Palm. "......" cuts the palm of the hand + n.
"Okay, okay, let's wrap up the wounds quickly, don't get infected again, what's wrong with you?"
Li Zhen frowned and threw over a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao, telling them to quickly bandage the wound and stop contracting tetanus.
He didn't know that this was a 'traditional virtue' left by the Chinese nation since ancient times, called the oath of breaking the palm or cutting the palm (it seems that there are also face-cutting oaths), and this ritual is only performed on very solemn occasions, and it is generally not available.
"Take a break, I'll go and report to the chief manager."
After instructing them, Li Zhen took Xue Rengui out of the big tent and ran towards the school yard - at this time, Li Zhen must have been watching artillery training.
