"That's exactly what happened!" The butler replied.

Song Yingxing sighed, and walked towards the hall with the blueprint in hand.

As soon as Song Yingxing entered the hall, Song Yingsheng hurriedly stood up and greeted him.

"Why did you come back at this time?" Song Yingsheng asked hastily.

Song Yingsheng was originally a small official, and the relationship between Song Yingsheng and Song Yingxing was very good, so when Song Yingxing was about to move to Xuanzhen, he followed Song Yingxing to Xuanzhen.

Song Yingxing said: "I was delayed for some time at the Chief Soldier's place, plus the blockade of the train station, so I came back a bit late."

"Sit down quickly!" Song Yingsheng pulled Song Yingxing's arm and hurriedly made him sit down.

After Song Yingxing sat down, he held the blueprint in his hands, "I understand the ability of my brother, but there are no vacancies for various positions in Xuan Town, so it may not be easy to do a certain job for my brother.

I was transferred back by the Chief Soldier this time, and the errand of supervising the construction of the railway was freed. If my brother can endure the bitter cold and tiredness on the construction site, then I can recommend it to the Chief Soldier, but I can’t promise if I can agree. . "

When Song Yingsheng heard Song Yingxing's words, he immediately became happy.

As the saying goes, if you learn literary and martial arts, you will be the emperor's family.

Although Zhao Wen is not an emperor now, he will become an emperor sooner or later.

Not to mention that I have been in Xuanzhen for a while, everyone is an official and doing things, and I am alone at home, which is not a problem.

"Third Brother, I'm bothering you!" Song Yingsheng said with a smile.

"What's bothering and not worrying, the eldest brother can follow me to Xuanzhen and resign the general, that's me. I should recommend the eldest brother. Now that Xuanzhen is booming, the commander-in-chief has already decided to recommend it. It's a dear rule. I'm not taking advantage of any loopholes in recommending my elder brother." Song Yingxing laughed.

At this moment, Song Yingxing's son, He Zong, hurried to the hall after hearing about Song Yingxing's return, and paid his respects to Song Yingxing.

"Father!"

They saluted Song Yingxing respectfully.

"Get up!" Song Yingxing stroked the beard on his chin and looked at the two of them.

Several people thanked each other and hurriedly stood up.

"The two of you are old enough to stop fooling around like this. Don't you think about going to university?" Song Yingxing looked at his son.

Song Shihui and Song Shiying are now in their early 20s.

After all, the Song family is a scholarly family. There have been many Jinshi candidates in the family before, so the family education is very strict.

The two looked at each other, and then replied in unison: "Father, we are already ready to go to university. We are studying at home now. As long as the university takes the exam again, we are absolutely confident that we will be admitted to the university."

"Father! Both of us are going to college!"

Song Yingxing's two daughters also hurriedly shouted.

"Haha, it's very good that you two have this idea, but the university doesn't accept girls. How about this, if you two really like to study, then you can follow your elder brother to study." Song Yingxing looked at his two When she was a daughter, her face was full of tenderness.

"Okay, you guys go down, I want to talk to your uncle about something." Song Yingxing waved at his son and daughter.

After his son and daughter went out, Song Yingxing talked with Song Yingsheng again.

"What are you holding?" Song Yingsheng asked curiously as he saw that Song Yingxing was holding a roll of rice paper in his hands when he entered the door, and he never put it down.

Song Yingxing said: "This is given to me by the commander-in-chief. It is a secret. As for what it is, I can't say."

"Since it's a secret, then I won't ask. By the way, you must keep the things that the commander-in-chief entrusts to you, and don't let outsiders know." Song Yingsheng heard Song Yingxing say that the blueprint in his hand is a secret, so he didn't Ask again.

……

At the same time, Li Xiaosan tortured Li Chaoyang in the cell.

At the beginning, Li Chaoyang's mouth was still very hard, and he even kept cursing Zhao Wen.

But under Li Xiaosan's torture, Li Chaoyang quickly gave up.

"What? In addition to letting the Jinyiwei assassins into Xuan Town, you also sold weapons outside?" Li Xiaosan originally thought that the matter was completely clear, but he didn't expect to ask such a thing after asking. .

"I really admire you. You didn't even mention letting the assassins into the city, but you actually sold the weapons? Tell me, who did you sell the weapons to? How much did you sell them for?" Li Xiaosan stood in front of Li Chaoyang and asked with a vicious look on his face. road.

"I sold half a dozen of the 56, three of the 56, two of the light machine guns, and one of the 40. The bullets were a thousand rounds, and the 40 rounds were ten. The people who sold them were those Jin Yiwei." Li Chaoyang was hung on the wall , said dying.

"No, that's not right. You said you sold it to those Jinyiwei, but why didn't these Jinyiwei use it when he assassinated the Chief Soldier? Are you lying?" Li Xiaosan suddenly remembered that when he was arresting these Jinyiwei, these The weapons people use are just bows, crossbows, swords, and when they don't see any firearms, they can't help but become suspicious.

"The reselling time is very early. A month ago, these Jinyiwei sent the weapons directly to the capital. This is an order from the capital, and they dare not use it." Li Chaoyang told himself like a bamboo tube. It's all said.

When Li Xiaosan heard this, he almost died of anger.

"Well, you eat the inside and outside, I will beat you to death, you dare to sell this kind of thing, I will beat you to death, you bastard." Li Xiaosan waved the whip in his hand, and the court whipped it towards Li Chaoyang.

When Li Chaoyang passed out from the beating, Li Xiaosan looked at several counselors in the cell who were sitting behind the desk and recording their testimony.

"How's the record going?" Li Xiaosan asked.

"Go back to your lord, it's ready." These counselors sorted out the testimony in their hands and put it on the table.

Li Xiaosan nodded, walked to the desk and picked up the testimonies.

"Li Chaoyang has to take good care of the old man, right, he can't be allowed to die." Li Xiaosan pointed at the people in the cell and shouted, then hurriedly walked towards the general military mansion with his testimony.

At this time, Zhao Wen had just finished making out with his son and daughter, and was just lying on his bed.

Chapter 452 Testing Weapons

Not long after Zhao Wen fell asleep, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Wen sat up from the bed, looked outside the door, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"My lord, Mr. Li Xiaosan is here. He said he has something important to report, and he seems to be in a hurry." A soldier who came to report stood outside the door and shouted at Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wendao: "You tell him to wait for me in the study, and I will come right away."

After Zhao Wen finished speaking, he jumped off the bed and began to put on his clothes. Li Xiaosan also led the soldiers to the study.

After Li Xiaosan waited for a long time, Zhao Wen came outside the study.

"My lord, there is something new!" Li Xiaosan looked at Zhao Wen who rushed over, and hurriedly took out a stack of testimony from his arms.

Zhao Wen took the testimony and pushed open the door of the study, "Go in first and then we'll talk."

After sitting down, Zhao Wen looked at it seriously.

It didn't take long for Zhao Wen to read all the testimony.

"Damn it, you've gotten to such an extent that you actually resell weapons. The military has issued repeated orders to strictly prohibit reselling weapons. Fortunately, he not only resells weapons, but also sells them to Jin Yiwei. Fortunately, Jin Yiwei didn't use these weapons against me. Hmph, this Li Chaoyang really deserves to die. "

Zhao Wen slammed the testimony in his hand on the table, and said angrily.

Li Xiaosan said: "My lord, I feel that all the troops should be checked now to see if there is anyone reselling weapons.

We have been out of Xuan Town for a while, and I am afraid that there is more than one person reselling weapons. "

"You're right. The entire Xuan Town needs to be reviewed. These weapons are very important to us. We can't let these weapons fall into the hands of the imperial court, let alone let them turn around to deal with us.

I will entrust this matter to you. By the way, not only this matter, I will entrust you with a big matter. "

As Zhao Wen said that, he took out the gendarmerie system document that he had formulated before.

"I plan to set up an organization similar to Jinyiwei, except that the main responsibility of this organization is to monitor military officers and arrest those who harbor evil intentions in the military.

I think you will be the commander of this organization. You are directly responsible to me. I plan to select 3000 troops from the Guards Battalion and hand them over to you. I need you to place all of these troops in all the troops.

The 3000 people are only the current number, and the number will increase in the future.In addition to these personnel, I will allocate another 20 silver dollars to you. "

Zhao Wen looked at Li Xiaosan and said expressionlessly.

Li Xiaosan looked at the document Zhao Wen handed him, his face was full of excitement.

"I will live up to my lord's entrustment!" After reading it, Li Xiaosan put the document in his hand on the table, and bowed to Zhao Wen.

"From now on, you are the commander of the military police, and you must take responsibility in the future. Remember, if you find someone with malicious intentions, you can directly arrest them." Zhao Wen said.

"I will definitely remember your lord's order and live up to your lord's entrustment!" Li Xiaosan roared loudly at Zhao Wen.

"I trust you, otherwise I wouldn't entrust such an important matter to you."

……

Just after dawn the next day, Chongzhen brought a group of officials to the school grounds of the Beijing Camp.

The campus of the Beijing Camp is very large. Although the current combat effectiveness of the Beijing Camp is worrying, the foundation of the Beijing Camp is still there.

Today is the time to inspect the weapons brought back from Xuanzhen, so Chongzhen and others came earlier.

A huge high platform has been set up in the school grounds of the Beijing camp. Chongzhen sits on the dragon arranged on the high platform and looks at the soldiers holding Xuanzhen weapons under the high platform.

Dragon flags fluttered in the middle of the school grounds, and soldiers from the Beijing camp in bright armor were everywhere.

The armor on these soldiers only looked good on the surface, but the inside was already rotten.

It's okay to pretend, but if you want to fight, it's absolutely impossible.

There was a row of soldiers standing a hundred steps ahead of the high platform, and under the feet of these soldiers were the weapons Jin Yiwei got from Li Chaoyang.

When Jin Yiwei obtained weapons from Li Chaoyang, he also obtained the methods of using these weapons, and taught these methods to the soldiers of the Beijing camp when they sent them to the capital.

Not far in front of this row of soldiers stood some wooden targets, which were used to test the power and range of weapons.

On both sides of Chongzhen stood the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and Gao Qiqian stood beside Chongzhen.

"My lord, Jin Yiwei has put in a lot of effort in this matter. If it weren't for Jin Yiwei, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to get Xuanzhen's weapons." Gao Qiqian said to Chongzhen proudly.

Chongzhen nodded, "You're right, Jin Yiwei contributed a lot to this incident, but it's a pity that he didn't take off Bandit Zhao's head."

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter to the imperial court whether to pick off Bandit Zhao's head or not. Now that the court has Zhao Wen's weapon in its hands, as long as Bandit Zhao's weapon is cracked, Bandit Zhao will be put down sooner or later." " Gao Qiqian chattered.

"You're right. That's fine. Let's not talk about this matter. Hurry up and start testing Zhao thief's weapons." Chongzhen waited a little impatiently.

Gao Qiqian replied respectfully to Chongzhen, then stood on the edge of the high platform with a cocked voice, and shouted at the soldiers who had already prepared below: "The emperor has an order to start testing Zhao thief's weapons. "

As the sound of high diving fell, the soldiers in front of the high platform began to move.

Beside this row of soldiers, stood the admiral of the Beijing camp, the British public Zhang Zhiji.

Zhang Zhiji looked at these soldiers, held a small flag in his hand, and shouted, "Check 56 and a half now, check the range now, pass my order, and set the target fifty paces away!"

Zhang Zhiji waved a small flag and shouted at these soldiers.

As soon as Zhang Zhiji finished speaking, a soldier on a horse ran towards the target, shouting as he ran, "My lord has ordered that the target be placed fifty paces away!"

The soldiers standing at the target hastily moved the target back.

The soldiers with the 56 and a half under their feet also hurriedly picked up the 56 and a half under their feet, and began to load the bullets according to Jin Yiwei's instruction, opened the safety, and loaded the bullets.

After doing all this, the target has been fixed.

Zhang Zhiji looked at the fixed target, and then shouted: "Everyone in front of 56 and a half evacuates, and everyone in front of 56 and a half evacuates!"

After a dozen or so breaths, the people in front of 56 and a half were swept away.

Zhang Zhiji looked at the empty front, and suddenly waved down the small flag in his hand, "Fire!"

As soon as the order was issued, the soldier holding the 56 and a half pulled the trigger.

Ten 56 and a half gunshots rang out continuously, Chongzhen sat on the dragon, couldn't help but widen his eyes, looked in the direction of the target, and his whole body couldn't help but lean forward.

The 56 and a half is a semi-automatic rifle, but the soldiers holding the 56 and a half used to use matchlock guns.

The matchlock guns are loaded once and fired once, so after these soldiers pulled the trigger, they involuntarily released the trigger and did not pull the trigger again.

"This blunderbuss can shoot continuously, let me keep firing now!" Zhang Zhiji looked at the soldiers who had stopped, and shouted again hastily.

Under Zhang Zhiji's order, these soldiers hastily pulled the trigger again.

Hearing the continuous gunshots, Zhang Zhiji's face was full of disbelief.

Although he had long known that Zhao Wen's weapon was extraordinary, he had never experienced it up close.

Now after seeing this scene, he really can't believe that there is really such a powerful weapon in the world.

Compared with Zhao Wen's weapons, the imperial court's weapons were nothing more than scrap metal. No wonder Xuanzhen was able to conquer Shanxi in a short period of time with only one town.

The bullet hit the target made of wood, and sawdust flew all over the place.

Seeing the flying sawdust, everyone's eyes were full of disbelief.

Chongzhen stood up directly from Long Yu, his mouth opened wide, and he looked at the soldier who fired in disbelief.
