Chapter 301 Arrow Cart
You think some people are plague gods, and some people also think you are plague gods.

For example, Zhang Juzheng, he felt that General Zhenshuo of the imperial court... was not a god of plague, but rather a nuisance.

A bit like Hai Rui, but not the same.

People know Hai Rui, and no matter which minister knows what Hai Rui can do and will do, so Hai Rui is a powder keg to the officials, but to the cabinet ministers, it is a very safe knife. No surprises.

Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng knew what Chen Mu wanted to do. He wanted to conquer Hainan. Although it was said that he wanted to earn money for the court, in fact, in the eyes of the people at the time, most of them hoped to achieve great achievements in opening up territories, which was not too much. bad thing.

But the bad thing was that he was Chen Mu.

Who knows what Chen Mu can do?
"General Zhenshuo is gone?"

After Chen Mu left, Zhang Juzheng walked out of the study, saw You Qi asking a question, You Qi nodded, and asked Zhang Juzheng deliberatively, "Master doesn't like General Zhenshuo? When he left, his expression was calm but his footsteps were flustered."

"Panic?" Zhang Juzheng sneered, "He should panic, it's okay, let him go."

You Qiji was good at trying to figure out Zhang Juzheng's intentions, and thus became the confidant of the second assistant of the dynasty.But this time, he couldn't tell whether Zhang Juzheng liked General Zhenshuo or not.

After deliberating for a long time, he took out a small painting from his sleeve and presented it to Zhang Juzheng, saying: "This is a gift from General Zhenshuo to the servant when he entered the mansion. The master doesn't like him, so the servant will return it."

"dog……"

Zhang Juzheng looked at the drawing paper, frowning for a long time before barely recognizing the animals on the painting, "Dog, dog and sheep, Linjiang Xian and Nian Nujiao, Chen Zhenshuo's name is well-deserved. Oh, it can be exchanged for thousands of taels of silver."

As he spoke, he shook his head and smiled, handed the painting back lightly, and said: "You can keep the money that was given to you. His money was not obtained by corruption, but if you are short of money, don't exchange it from the government; Send him the Tao Te Ching."

"No one knows what he can do and what he will do. He doesn't know the golden mean. He originally wanted to stay in Beijing as the governor, but he was looking for the ambition of being a marquis from thousands of miles away."

Zhang Juzheng looked towards the door of the mansion and slowly shook his head, flicking his sleeves lightly, he returned to the room.

"Who dares to keep him in the capital!"

Chen Mu didn't stay in the capital for too long, he went to the Imperial Academy to visit Yang Yinglong, gave his brother-in-law a good horse, and then went back to Xuanfu.

He really didn't expect that Zhang Juzheng had been making arrangements for him all the time, saying that he was beaten by six ministers, and revealed that Chen Mumuxiu Yulin was not suitable to stay in the north.

It can be regarded as communicating with him, so as not to be too abrupt in the future.

Everyone has a way to go, the only difference is that some people know it and some people don't.

Chen Mu knew that Zhang Juzheng wanted to let him stay in the capital out of kindness.Of course it is good to stay in the capital, there is no need to go to battle or work hard, if he can let go of his thoughts, perhaps what awaits him will be a comfortable life.

It is only a matter of time before an official worships a first rank, this is a noble status that most people can't match for three lives and three lives.

If possible, Chen Mu would really like to stay in the capital to enjoy the pleasures of the world, but he can't.

To be content with pleasure would condemn him inwardly.

Although he was beaten by Zhang Juzheng, Chen Mu felt pretty good - Mr. Zhang Ge wished him to leave early, which was a good sign.

Chi!
boom!
Back at Xuan Mansion, before entering General Zhenshuo's Mansion, Chen Mu was talking to the patrolling soldiers half a street away, when he heard the sound of rockets screaming from the direction of the Martial Arts Field in the mansion.

Across the courtyard wall and watchtower, six streams of flames shot up into the sky one after another with gunpowder smoke, and exploded in the air.

Chen Mu and Long Junxiong looked at each other with dark expressions, Long Junxiong waved his hand immediately, and several servants and riders rode their horses and stepped into the house.

"Who was it that cost me the weapon? The stock of small flag arrows is not much. How long did it take to order the Military Weapons Bureau to imitate them?"

For a long time, the offensive methods learned by Chen Mujun in the Southern and Northern Wars have been combined with close guns, far guns, small flag arrows, and artillery to achieve a multi-level tactics, and one is indispensable.However, the horse Xiaoqi arrows accompanying the soldiers have been exhausted, and the stock is less than [-].

When the Military Weapons Bureau was first established, Chen Mu ordered the imitation of small flag arrows. However, due to the limited production capacity of the carpenter, he gave priority to making gun beds to supplement the huge amount of bird guns needed by Wan Quandu, so he put it on hold.

Chen Mu has only one idea now, he wants to see which bastard in the general's mansion plays with his treasure like a firework!
Leaving Hei Wa to the groom, Chen Mu walked around the front yard and went straight into the martial arts arena, but saw four servants standing at the door with sullen faces. A full cylinder.

Seeing himself entering the mansion, Zhao Shizhen got out of the car and wiped his sweat while laughing, "Duke Ming is back!"

Chen Mu knew at a glance that the bastard he wanted to see was Zhao Shizhen.

"Is it fun?" Chen Mu originally wanted to punish the person who shot the arrow in the mansion, but seeing that it was Zhao Shizhen, he felt troubled.He had no choice but to blame: "Rockets are powerful weapons in the army. If you just shoot a few arrows at the Military Weapons Bureau for fun, what should you do if you shoot arrows in the government office and startle the garrison!"

"I told them, it's all right, General!"

In Chen Mu's eyes, Zhao Shizhen smiled like a fool.

"Minggong, please look at this cart. This is a cart built by the supervisor. The two legs in front of the wheel are folded. When you put it down, you can stand on it. When you lift it up, it can be carried by a horse like a cannon cart." Picking up a square box, he said: "This is a rocket box made by my supervisor. It contains six rockets and weighs fourteen catties. With extra explosives, it can shoot three hundred steps."

"It was placed on the ground just now, so it flies to the sky. If it is mounted on a cart——Ming Gong, this cart is specially equipped with this arrow, which can carry thirteen rockets. It can be adjusted up and down, the shooting box is thick to block the smoke of gunpowder, and the big leather card is inserted in the front to not be afraid of the bow and crossbow. It can be fired with flint, and a little primer can be sprinkled on the fire anvil before each shot."

Zhao Shizhen jumped up and down around the two-wheeled vehicle, excitedly wanting to install the new quiver to demonstrate to Chen Mu, but was stopped by General Chen, who praised: "Good job, really good."

There is no need for a demonstration, basically old things are put together, even if there are some new technologies, they are nothing more than the ones he made in Nanyangwei, such as the gun emplacement winch, but combined together, the new rocket car is more powerful than the small flag arrow in the past , Convenience are improved a lot.

I really didn't see that Zhao Shizhen, who was known as the capital with calligraphy, would also study weapons!

"The top priority now is nothing else, Junxiong, pick someone who is proficient in Fanyu from the family soldiers and banners, and let him follow Chang Ji from today on, and teach Fanyu." Chen Mu looked at Zhao Shizhen meaningfully, and said: " Puyi has a school in Macau. When we go to Nanyang, we will study there for a year or so. If you like making weapons, you will take care of all the craftsmen in the future, but now—"

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Go to the study and write a letter for me."

　Good morning!
