Zhao Kuangyi also said: "My mother in her thirties is a woman in her thirties. Although she is beautiful, she finally loses her beauty, so the Bi family is increasingly harsh on her. For this reason, a woman, or for some money, the emperor, I don't believe that her family dares to make trouble in the capital under the pressure of a dignified magistrate."

He was in charge of affairs in Kaifeng Prefecture for many years, including case-breaking, and he could see the suspicion of the matter at a glance. If the mother-in-law in the blue clothes was so beautiful that the head of the Bi family would not be willing to let him go, then another thing. The reason why he refused to let him go was to extort more money.

But how much money can it be? One thousand pieces of money are over, but when it comes to the capital, is it still small? It’s not worth it!

Someone behind this is making trouble. It may not be Song Jiu's enemy, or some enemies of Ma Zhizhou or others, taking the opportunity to expand the situation.

He also said: "Emperor, although Song Jiu is lazy, he is not careless when doing things. He is not like other Chinese envoys. This industry is like the Hunan team. That is really true. But it is very dangerous to look at it in this way, far more dangerous than Hunan. That night, Song Jiu handled it with a minister's demeanor."

Zhao Kuangyin nodded.

Lu Yuqing presented Song Jiu's memorial with a fast horse. At that time, Zhao Kuangyin was very worried when he saw it. It was not a joke. He was a brother in battle. The soldiers of the same battalion were not brothers, but many people were better than brothers and asked Song Jiu to kill Yidu people. How could the people in other battalions not be anxious?

He was very worried about something that happened to Song Jiu, and even complained that Song Jiu was a little reckless, but later he received the information and handled it well, especially borrowing two hundred Sichuan cavalry from Kang Yanze.

"When Song Jiu went down, some soldiers on the front line were illegal and cruel. Song Jiu promoted the orders of the outside kings to be ordered by the emperor. This was to express virtue to the emperor and to complain to the soldiers. But this would happen. Many people would be unhappy. Qingyi was placed on the Censorate for trial. I was worried about what I was worried about."

"Second brother. I'm afraid that Qingyi is a real spy, so Han Xizai should not be underestimated."

"We don't know whether it is a spy or not. We might as well wait for Song Jiu to come back and ask about the meeting that day in detail before making a judgment. However, Qingyi was finally detained in Kaifeng Prefecture and was not tried. He would give the Bi family a hundred coins and redeem Lu's mother first. I will send someone to check the truth. Yes, then behead him immediately. No, and make another decision. At worst, if you don't let Qingyi learn, what are the consequences?"

"This is a good idea, second brother, why do you want to come forward?"

"Brother, this is not Guo Jie and Wei Qing, a blue-clothed person. Song Jiu was unwilling to go on, but I was still coaxed him down. It was competent when he went on. In fact, his age, qualifications and reputation were insufficient. Otherwise, with his achievements, he would have been moved to a high position long ago. Although the court repeatedly rewarded him, it was a little too thin compared to his achievements. Especially in Bashu, he walked in the Daoshan oil pan, but the Daoshan oil pan was invisible and intangible. If he took the risk of doing things for the court in the front and there were people in the rear, it might not be unfair. So I came forward to say it."

"Okay. It's up to you."

Zhao Kuangyi walked out, but thought in his heart, could it be that my elder brother really thinks Song Jiu is his own person, and that Song Jiu is not good. Suddenly, he felt a little resentful. Song Jiu was dissatisfied with this balance, and he was not satisfied. Either employ people or not, and let himself and Zhao Pu go down directly. Or suspiciously, just kill them, which would make everyone uncomfortable.

This is a mental process, so Zhao Kuangyi later killed one after another without using any balance technique...

...

Song Jiu was looking at the stone cannons in the military camp, or the catapult, and suddenly a sound came from behind: "Boy, you are here to Liangchuan again."

Song Jiu turned around and saw Ding Deyu coming over with a general and an eunuch. The eunuch didn't know him, so he could know him. He introduced the deputy envoy Wang Ban, but he also knew Tailin's identity. He bowed and said, "I have met General Ding, General Wang and Zhang Duzhi."

The few people simply returned the greeting, and Ding Deyu said again: "Boy, can you run away?"

Song Jiu frowned and said, "General Ding, how could I want to run away? It was His Majesty's edict, I have to obey."

"Well, you did a good job. Before you arrived in Yizhou, you killed all the people under Lao Wang. Lao Pan said you are very good, but you are a bit kind. I believe that Lao Pan will be happy this time, and the marriage will be a chance."

Song Jiu was amused and cried, what was it, and said, "General Wang didn't know. The situation was urgent that night, and I had to do it."

"What's wrong? You've made Lao Wang mute and eat coptis chinensis this time, and you're having trouble saying."

"General Ding, you should let me go back safely." Song Jiu wanted to use a rag to block his mouth.

"Don't be afraid, Lao Wang is too ruthless and I can't stand it."

"General Ding, or to be honest, this has nothing to do with me. I just came down to take a look and I will go back soon."

"Old Wang said you have a way to break Guankou Village?"

"When did I say that, but the people of Liangchuan are very hard. The war will end soon. This damn war!"

"Is there a way?"

"Come on," Song Jiu said, pointing to the stone cannon.

The catapult was used early in China and was found in the Warring States Period. A shelf and a lever are used as levers. A heavy object is hung on the short end, and a stone cover is hung on the long end. When fighting, the stone cover is placed on the stone cover. Many people pull up the short end with a rope, then suddenly put down the rope, or cut the rope with a knife. The heavy object falls down, and the stone cover on the other end is quickly pried up. The stone on the stone cover bounces up and flies to the distance. The principle is like seesaw wood, which is also a simple lever principle. With the development of war machines, the catapult has also appeared wheels that can be pushed, or even more tips, and at most it reaches thirteen tips, which requires five hundred people to cast.

This speed is still not very fast and the target is inaccurate.

The second is gunpowder. The fuze of gunpowder is a normal fuze, not a detonator. Some are fast and some are slow. At least they cannot explode when casting, so the fuze is very long. The fuze cannot be controlled, which causes a result. Even when placed on the target, the fuze has a long and large piece that has not been burned. The enemy pours some water on it, and it has disappeared, and instead becomes the enemy's weapon to defend the city.

Effective, but not significant.

In fact, in history, the Song Dynasty used stone cannons when attacking the Southern Tang Dynasty, which were loaded with burning incendiary bombs. They were burning, not explosions. When Li Gang defended Tokyo City, the projectiles could explode, so they were called Thunderbolt Cannons.

However, because the gunpowder formula is not standard and does not pay attention to the sealing properties, the power is not very large, the sound is loud and the lethality is small.

Song Jiu was not interested in black gunpowder weapons for two reasons. The first is its power. Later, the Song Dynasty had many black gunpowder weapons. Even if the formula was inaccurate, the formula of black gunpowder gradually became accurate in the Ming Dynasty, and even a large number of weapons appeared, such as Tong and Cannon, which were real cannons. Finally.

Its power still cannot replace cold weapons. It is better to focus on weapons than to focus on the system. The Mongols at first had no weapons, but they still killed all directions. The Song Dynasty did not have accurate black gunpowder formula weapons, but the weapons were not weak. Later, there were sharp weapons such as the Divine Arm Bow, but they were still weak in the Song Dynasty.

Unless Song Jiu can make Song Dynasty technology advance at least 800 years ahead of gunpowder weapons in Europe and 900 years in China, that is, the emergence of various yellow gunpowder weapons, can it replace the combat effectiveness of excellent soldiers in cold weapons.

This is not very realistic.

Secondly, he has little historical knowledge to learn from. China's black gunpowder weapons have not yet played a truly fatal role. It seems that the most famous one is Hong Xiuquan's coffin gunpowder knocked down the Nanjing city walls.

It played a role, but it did not play a decisive role.

The black gunpowder in the West was passed down from China, and the formula may not be very accurate, or for other reasons, it is not as powerful as the crossbow and the longbow. When the formula is accurate, the yellow gunpowder appeared directly and has become the age of hot weapons. It seems to have played a role, but the technology involved is too complex, including the musket chamber, gunbore, and other complex technologies, which Song Jiu could not chew.

After all, it is still a physics and chemistry science.

After teaching himself, the court also acquiesced to run his own academy. In a few decades, a large number of students who are proficient in preliminary physics and chemistry will go out, and most of them are officials. Under the leadership of these people, there may be a huge change in one or two hundred years or two or three hundred years.

Nothing now.

Song Jiu talked about the disadvantages of the catapult and said, "General Ding, I opened an amusement park in Hezhou, the capital."

"I heard about it."

“There are some techniques that will improve the trench.”

“This is good.”

"I have not yet studied it, so I have been transferred to Bashu." Song Jiu sighed. His words were not false. In history, Huihui cannons were said to be able to shoot a thousand-pound bullet body. The secret is very simple. It is not to use human power to pull ropes, but to use a winch to raise a larger weight. The weight of its balance hammer can often reach four to ten tons, and then cut off the rope. The power is far better than that of the current catapult.

Song Jiu did not know about Huihui cannons, but he knew the mechanics principle. The original purpose was to make some equipment for people to play with. It was not until the army that he realized that these technologies could also be used in improved trench machines.

Ding Deyu didn't know its importance yet, so he laughed and said, "That's good."

More than just good...

If he knew, he might laugh, but it wouldn't be like this.

Song Jiu looked at Ding Deyu. If Old Ding didn't come, he would be very safe. He didn't believe that he was the Central Envoy. The people below didn't know the world, and Wang Quanbin didn't know that he was going back to the capital now. What can Wang Quanbin do to him?

But Lao Ding came, it was an opportunity. It was not for himself, but for the millions of Bashu people.

Great Shan had no chance with him, but what happened in Bashu made him unbearable. He pulled Ding Deyu aside and whispered: "Shi Shouxin, Han Chongyun and the others were too heavy to kill, and now they all believe in Buddha's teachings. Do General Ding believe it?"

"Why do I believe that thing?"

"But it's always good for people to accumulate some good deeds."

"What do you want to say?"
