Chapter 3 Song Shenzong's Hope
The Song Dynasty was highly developed in science and technology and led the trend of the times. Military weapon supervision was similar to the modern engineering academy. All the good craftsmen were skilled craftsmen, and they were equal to modern engineering academies, and they were all outstanding.
Such a great craftsman was actually bombed to death. Song Shenzong was a little unbelievable. He stood up suddenly and shouted: "What did you say? Say it again! The craftsman was bombed to death? Impossible!"
"The official family is absolutely true! That explosion is amazing, the body limbs are broken, like a demon ravaging!" The eunuch suppressed his fear and answered carefully.
"Really? Lead the way!" The thunderbolt bomb is of great importance, and Song Shenzong wants to see it with his own eyes.
The eunuch responded and hurriedly led the way. Song Shenzong followed the eunuch. The two of them came to an empty place and could smell the bloody smell in the air from a distance. Song Shenzong couldn't help but twitch his nose.
A bunch of people surrounded there, including eunuchs, mailmen, good craftsmen, soldiers, and pointed and couldn't stop.
When Song Shenzong arrived, they were busy making way. Song Shenzong looked at it and couldn't help but be surprised. A bloody corpse fell to the ground, his limbs were broken, his arms were gone, there was a big hole in his chest, the internal organs were broken, half of his head was gone, and his brain was flowing everywhere.
This scene was seen and heard by Emperor Shenzong of Song. His eyes were wider than those of the cow's eyes. He stared at the dead body for a long time before he came to his senses: "Is it really a thunderbolt bomb?"
"The official family is absolutely true! After he was ordered, he wanted to dismantle it in the house, but he changed his mind temporarily and came to this empty place to dismantle it. He was killed after not much effort." The eunuch replied hurriedly and pointed to the ground: "Official family, you didn't see it. When the explosion occurred, a huge ball of fireball appeared, burning the ground black. If he dismantled it in the house, maybe, maybe..."
Speaking of this, he never dared to continue talking anymore. He just looked at the surrounding palaces with a look of fear. That means that if it was dismantled in the house, it would probably cause a fire and burn the palace. However, he would not dare to say this if he was beaten to death.
He didn't say that Song Shenzong could think of it, and he couldn't help but feel numb on his back. Fortunately, this craftsman was clever, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. If there was a fire in the palace, what would be possible?
"This Wu Xiucai!" Song Shenzong's face turned pale and green, and he exuded a breath of resentment on Wu Ji's head.
"Haha! The greater the power, the better!" Suddenly, Song Shenzong laughed again, with a cheerful look on his face, and looked at the body for a while: "I know what it is like to be bombed to death! Well, it's pretty good! It's like this when it's bombed on Liao Gou! Come on, bury him with a grand ceremony! Find a few more good workers!"
Song Shenzong was not so easy to admit defeat. He was determined to break the secret of the Thunderbolt Bomb. Unfortunately, the top craftsmen tried their best and tried all their best, but they did not solve it. In the end, although Song Shenzong was extremely reluctant, he had to give up his thoughts.
"This Wu Xiucai!" Song Shenzong shook his head helplessly.
Wu Ji and Song Shenzong fought each other in a distance, ending with Wu Ji's complete victory.
Song Shenzong looked at the thunderbolt in a daze. Suddenly, his eyes were full of light and he said with great hope: "This thing will be spread sooner or later. If Yelu Hongji gets it, he will definitely dismantle it. Will it blow up that thing? Yelu Hongji, you stole that thing from the military weapon surveillance. If it blows it up, how angry will you look? Haha!"
Song Shenzong was in a good mood and returned to Jiying Hall, sat back on the throne, picked up his pen, commented on Zheng Tai's memorial, and handed it to the eunuch: "Give Zheng Tai's memorial to Wang Shao, write in the name of his deputy Privy Councilor, and promote Wu Ji as the commander of the convert garrison camp."
"Ah!" The eunuch said in surprise, opened his mouth wide and said hurriedly: "Officials, the young shouldn't be talking too much. But, a small battalion commander, how can he use the deputy Privy Councilor to write a document? Is this too high?"
"What do you know?" Song Shenzong disagreed: "This Wu Xiucai is not simple! Do you know what Wu Xiucai has? He is very brave and uses more than 20 people to destroy Liufeng thieves. He is also a skilled craftsman and can make thunder bullets. Zheng Tai said repeatedly, this Wu Xiucai is proficient in military art. What is the essence of military use?"
"How can the young one know this?" The eunuch was stunned, not understanding.
"Four words: Take advantage of the situation!" Song Shenzong was not without praise: "The four words of using troops are nothing more than this! However, a real famous general is made by typing, not by reading military books. I have to put him in the form of a general and a talented scholar. I will know if this scholar Wu has a talented scholar. It won't take long for me to know. The Liao Kingdom will invade the situation from time to time. If he really has talented scholars, he should give me a surprise!"
"Official family, you have done a good job!" The eunuch was a little moved.
"Shao Jiu, you have been following me for many years. You know my heart. I want to defeat Liao and destroy Xia. One Wang Shao is not enough, so I need many Wang Shaos! If this Wu Xiucai really has a general, I will use it. Send someone to stare at Wu Xiucai, and I will know every move." Song Shenzong raised his eyebrows and his eyes were lit up: "Only those who can withstand the fire are real gold!"

Return to Wu Ji's mansion.
Although Wu Ji had not officially taken office, he was preparing. In the past few days, he had studied the military laws of the Song army. He did not know if he did not study it. Once he studied it, he was shocked. In the Song Dynasty, being a general or an officer was the most beautiful fat man, and the benefits were numerous.
Wu Ji briefly summarized it and there are several benefits: First, you don’t have to die when fighting, you just need to escape. If you flatter well, you will still have a high official and a generous salary and no worries about your life.
2. You can deduct military pay, enrich your personal pockets, and accumulate wealth in a million without any problems.
Third, you can exploit soldiers and let them act as free slaves for themselves, eat from the Song Dynasty and drink from the Song Dynasty, but do chores for the general without spending a penny, and there are endless benefits, which is more cost-effective than raising slaves.
4. You can do business in a legitimate way under the guise of the army. No one dares to ask or say it. This is called Huiyi, a characteristic of the Song Dynasty.
Compared with the Song Dynasty officers, modern officers are suffering from torture in hell. Military laws always restrict you. Once you violate military discipline, you will be sent to a military court.
In the Song Dynasty, there was no such thing. Even if you miss the sky, as long as you flatter well and find a backer, you will still live a free and comfortable life, and high officials and generous salaries are no problem.
"Oh my God! Is this called the army? This is called the master of sanitation!" Wu Jiming was puzzled by the situation of the Song army. Such an officer was a small prince who did whatever he wanted.
"Although I am not a hero and have no fearless heart, I can't do it even if I want me to escape in a war. I still don't want this kind of benefit. I deduct military pay and give it to my personal pockets, but I still don't do it anymore. Silver is a good thing, but a gentleman loves money and gets it well. Although I am not a gentleman, I can't do this kind of thing."
Wu Ji began to sort out these benefits one by one, sneering at them: "Impressing soldiers and asking them to work as slaves for me is of great benefit to the development of Wu's military industry. However, this is not my personality, so forget it. Well, Yi is a good thing this time, I can use it. With this Yi method, Wu's military industry is justified. We are doing arms trading in large quantities! We not only have to build thunderbolt bullets, but also to build crossbows, swords and guns. In this era, we can't get rid of these cold weapons for the time being. Although the profit is not as good as the thunderbolt bullets, it is because of the large amount, the profits are too high, and we can make a lot of money."
Combining these two aspects and one combination, Wu's military industry will surely be extremely brilliant!
