As you know, Xiao San will never let you down. ------------- Magic laughed and said, "Brother Hailong, you don't have to be so polite. Isn't everything the same? However, I was so negligent that I didn't treat everyone to breakfast and came out.

Hailong smiled and said, "When we get to the Central Plains, we have to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. What's more, I have to let the apprentice do something.

Let's go. Let's go to the city not far ahead and find the best hotel to entertain the three gods and Miss Miao Miao.

Listening to the bright words of the sea dragon, Soto couldn't help nodding secretly. In the case of poisoning, he could still be so free and easy.

Glancing at his daughter who had been bowing her head and sighed, what a good thing it would be if Hailong could really be his son-in-law! Unfortunately, even if he is willing to let his daughter be his concubine, he may not want it.

The group of eleven people walked forward slowly. With the passage of time, Miao Miao's gloomy mood seemed to relax a little. The scenery in the Central Plains was obviously different from that of southern Xinjiang. There was less mystery, but it was more vast and extensive.

In a short time, a big city in front of him came into view. With the eyes of everyone, two big characters - Licheng, were clearly carved above the huge gate five meters away.

The overall height of the city wall is more than 15 meters, and there is a wide moat in front of the city.

The suspension bridge is put down, which is enough to pass through four carriages in parallel. There are not many pedestrians coming and going, and there are hundreds of sergeants guarding the gate.

Huang Han said respectfully, "Master, this city is an important border guard town in China, hoarding 200,000 heavy soldiers, and the city also has 60 artillery, which is the only few cities in China with artillery."

At this point, he couldn't help glancing at the three gods from southern Xinjiang.

Moha snorted and said, "Isn't it to guard our southern Xinjiang with heavy troops? Don't worry, at least while we old guys are alive, the southern Xinjiang will never attack the Central Plains.

Hailong patted Moha on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother Moha, you don't have to care about anything. Who made you so strong in the southern Xinjiang? The so-called heart of defense is indispensable.

Huang Han, what is a cannon? It sounds very powerful.

Huang Han said: "The artillery is a defensive weapon jointly developed by Zhao Song and Li Tang. It is made of fine iron. The barrel is three meters long and about half a meter in diameter.

Filled with gunpowder, iron bullet as the attack, very powerful.

Although it is too bulky, it is very powerful for defense.

As long as they are ** good enough to hit any target 5,000 meters away.

It is very suitable to deal with siege objects such as the enemy's catapults and arrow towers.

However, this kind of artillery is very troublesome to cast, so now there are only a few border towns and Bianliang City.

If all our cities are equipped with this kind of artillery in the future, we will not be afraid of the enemy's invasion.

Hailong smiled and said, "Since this thing is so powerful, why not equip the army? If you are equipped with artillery for that heavy armored infantry, even if the cavalry of Yuanmeng is strong, I'm afraid they can't cope with it.

If there is a chance, I really want to see how powerful this gun is.

After listening to Hailong's words, Huang Han moved his heart and said, "Master, when Li Tangguo and I were studying artillery, we all used them for defense.

No one has ever put forward the idea you said.

It's just that although the artillery is powerful, it is too bulky. A complete artillery is 500 kilograms, and I'm afraid no carriage can be loaded! What's more, there are gunpowder and shells. How much manpower does it take to transport them? Hailong thought for a moment and said, "That's not simple. You can make the cannon smaller and the shell smaller.

Even if the power will be smaller, if you get more, it will be better than bows and arrows.

Huang Han scratched his head and said, "I don't know much about the technical problems of artillery, but I heard that if the barrel of artillery is too small, there will be a danger of detonation at the moment of gunpowder explosion."

Hailong was very interested in this artillery and laughed and said, "Let's go to the city. After a good meal, you call the leader in charge of the defense of this city and ask him to find an empty place to test the cannon for me, and then I'm thinking about whether there is a way to improve it."

Moha said, "Okay! I also want to see how powerful this artillery is and whether it has the capital to fight against my southern Xinjiang army.

Although he has given up the idea of attacking the Central Plains, his winning heart will not disappear in a day or two.

Hearing Huang Han say that the artillery was powerful, he couldn't help but feel a little unconvinced.

Hailong's face suddenly changed, and he seemed to remember something. He said to Moha, "God, there's something I haven't had time to ask you.

Before we went to southern Xinjiang, we met a man of your Qiang ethnic group who drove hundreds of monsters to completely destroy a thousand-person village in Zhao and Song Dynasty, not even leaving a living person. Do you know about this? Moha frowned and said, "I haven't sent anyone to the mainland of the Central Plains to make trouble!" It's just that I once drove the barbarian giant to come here to try.

What kind of monster does the person you said drive?

Hailong knows that he will never lie as a demon. Since he didn't send it, he can reduce many contradictions. Relax in his heart and read what he saw and heard at the beginning.

After listening to Hailong's narration, Moha's eyes were full of anger, "It turned out to be this bastard.

It's good to kill, it's really good to kill.

Brother Hailong, the person you mentioned is indeed my Qiang nationality.

However, he is a traitor to our Qiang clan.

In my Qiang ethnic group, there are two main important occupations, one is to raise beasts, and the other is to exorcise beasts.

You came back for a short time, and you didn't see the southern Xinjiang monster driven by us. That's a strange scene! If we really want to attack the mainland, the wild beasts in southern Xinjiang will definitely be the main force.

After all, we have much fewer people than you.

There are thousands of kinds of exotic beasts in southern Xinjiang, and there are also several kinds that can be driven by us.

There are many powerful ones.

However, the more powerful the beast is, the more difficult it is to drive.

Thinking of the three-headed dragonflies, the ancestor of ten thousand snakes released on you that day, it is not something we can deal with.

I could often see wild beasts four or five thousand years ago, but now it is also extremely rare in southern Xinjiang.

The man you just mentioned is a stollor under me who is responsible for driving beasts. This guy is easy and hates work. He knows how to drink and gamble all day long. Once, he fed the wrong monster food, resulting in the death of several rare monsters.

I was found by my men and beat him up.

The boy actually held a grudge. He not only poisoned the person who hit him, but also drove some monsters to escape overnight. I sent a lot of people to look for him, but he was extremely slippery. Unexpectedly, he escaped to the Central Plains. Fortunately, when I met you, it was a matter on my mind.

Hailong smiled and said, "As long as it's not sent by Brother Moha, otherwise, the Central Plains and Southern Xinjiang will really have an insoluble grievances."

As they spoke, they had come to the front of the city.

Moha, Ula and Soto are all wearing ordinary robes, but Miao Miao's costumes are more eye-catching. The Three Kingdoms of the Central Plains are very conservative. Suddenly, such a beautiful woman as her naked appeared, which immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers defending the city.

Dozens of soldiers cautiously stopped Hailong and others.

The leader shouted, "Who are you? Where did it come from?

As he spoke, his eyes kept swimming on Miao Miao.

Huang Han took a step forward, took out a token from his arms with a calm face and handed it over, "The hall is ordered by your majesty to do it.

get out of the way."

The soldier leader took a look at the token and was shocked. He hurriedly ordered his men to get out of the way and send everyone into the city.

Ula looked at Huang Han strangely and said, "Are you from the official family of Zhao and Song Dynasty?" Huang Han said, "I belong to the worship hall of Zhao and Song Dynasties.

To be honest, several seniors went to southern Xinjiang with the master this time to investigate the giant's attack on the city a few days ago.

Hailong said, "Well, now things are over. The three gods don't need to care. Huang Han, you lead the way and find the best hotel to wash the dust for a few seniors."

Huang Han did not dare to neglect and hurriedly led everyone to the city. Obviously, it was not the first time he had arrived in Licheng. He was familiar with the road and led everyone to a hotel called Guihualou.

With the cultivation of Moha and others, they have long been less interested in eating and drinking, but the dishes in the Central Plains are obviously very different from those in southern Xinjiang. They are much more exquisite. Looking at the plate of delicious food with good color, fragrance and taste, they can't help but increase their appetite.

Huang Sui sat next to Miao Miao, frequently cooking for her, and explained the beauty of each dish to everyone. Although Miao Miao has been practicing for many years, it is a girl's heart after all.

The gloomy mood because of the sea dragon gradually let go, and after a meal, he had become a good friend with Huang Sui.

After being full of wine and food, Huang Han remembered Hailong's instructions. He was about to find the general in charge of guarding the frontier here, but the general had already come.

The status of the worship hall in the State of Zhao and Song can be said to be less than one person, and they have defeated the State of Yuan and Mongolia with the help of Hailong. In the whole State of Zhao and Song, they have long been heroic figures.

The general rushed over when he learned that someone from the hall had come to his jurisdiction. Hearing that everyone was eating inside, he did not come to disturb him.

It was not until Huang Han stepped out of the hotel that he happened to meet him.

"Master, let me introduce to you. This is Zhao Feng, the general responsible for guarding the southern frontier.

General Zhao Feng, this is my master, His Royal Highness.

Zhao Feng is two meters tall, with a resolute face and extraordinary momentum all over his body. Everyone clearly felt the sense of killing emanating from him.

After listening to Huang Han's words, Zhao Feng hurried forward, knelt down in front of Hailong, and said respectfully, "My subordinate Zhao Feng, I have seen His Royal Highness side by side.

Your Highness, your British subordinates have heard of it for a long time.

Seeing Hailong, he couldn't help but wonder. The name of the king had already spread in the country of Zhao and Song. He didn't expect that the prince who could be said to have saved the State of Zhao and Song would be so young.

Hailong waved casually, and Zhao Feng only felt a warm energy holding him up. "General Zhao, don't be polite. I'm not an official in the court, so I don't need to meet him with a big courtesy.

Please take a seat."

Under the strength of Hailong inadvertently, Zhao Feng suddenly despised and said respectfully, "The prince is the pillar of the State of Zhao and Song. In front of you, there is no last general's seat."

Hailong smiled and said, "Why are you all the same? There are so many rules. Sit down."

Hailong's approachability immediately won Zhao Feng's favor, and this important figure in the army of Zhao and Songguo sat aside.

Seeing him sit down, Hailong said, "I'm very interested in those cannons in the city. Can the general find an open place to test the cannon for me? Maybe I can come up with some ways to improve it."

Hearing Hailong mention the cannon, Zhao Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and the previous respect disappeared, replaced by excitement, "Your Highness, this cannon is a good thing! The power is not comparable to any weapon at all. Whether it is the range or the explosive power, it is enough to destroy anything within a radius of dozens of meters.

Extremely lethal.

Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to make. I want to expand to 120 doors here, but I'm afraid it will take four or five years.

Since you want to see it, I will prepare it now.

After saying that, he pleaded guilty to Hailong and rushed there.

Hailong looked at Zhao Feng's hurried figure and laughed, "This general is in a hurry."

Huang Han smiled and said, "Master, you don't know that General Zhao Feng can be said to love cannons as much as his life. He can't wait to sleep with his precious cannons every day.

You haven't seen it. I was there during the last test, and the scene when the 60 cannons were fired together was simply amazing.

A big pit was blown up in front of the whole city, and all the targets prepared in advance were blown up.

Such a strong weapon is simply a nightmare for the siege army.

If you can have more, even the number of soldiers stationed in the garrison can be reduced.

Moha said disapprovingly, "Is it that magical? It's time for me to see it."

Huang Han said, "Senior, I'm not afraid of your blame. Speaking of which, the 60 cannons in Licheng were really forced to be installed by the monsters in southern Xinjiang.

How can we not know the power of southern Xinjiang? If there is no such a sharp weapon, I'm afraid that even if we mobilized the whole country, we may not be able to resist!" Hailong stopped Huang Han from talking and said, "What's good about fighting a war? It's a waste of money.

What's more, no matter how powerful the artillery is, I'm afraid it can't stop the insects in southern Xinjiang.

Miao Miao's body trembled, looked up at the sea dragon angrily, and said, "Are you talking about me?" Hailong was at a sway and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Miao Miao, I didn't mean that.

It's just a feeling.

The power of insects is really not something that ordinary people can deal with.

Miao Miao snorted, bowed her head and said no words, and Huang Sui hurriedly comforted her.

After a while, Zhao Fengming invited everyone. In a subtle atmosphere, Hailong and 11 people got into the carriage prepared by Zhao Feng and went out of the city.
