Chapter 207 The Unavoidable Leak

When the pale fish belly appeared in the east, Zhao Donghe came to Zhang Hao again, "Zhang Hao, I have decided to buy two cannons, one for the first generation and one for the second generation, plus 100 shells."

After all, Zhao Donghe muttered again: "The price is really too expensive."

Zhang Hao laughed: "Well, if you can guarantee that you won't disassemble it for research after taking it back, and you will continue to buy Zhang's artillery and shells in the future, I can give you... a tenth of the price, how about it? "

"That much difference?"

Zhang Hao smiled and said nothing, and finally Zhao Donghe smiled and stopped talking. Nonsense, the reason I bought two cannons, and the reason why I bought a hundred shells is to take them back and dismantle them!

But Zhang Hao spoke so clearly, Zhao Donghyuk stopped bargaining.

But when it came time to pay, there was another problem. Zhao Donghe wanted to pay with pills, and these pills were originally intended to support the Qixia Kingdom.

Guan Zhengqing immediately quit.

After the incident went on for quite a while, Zhang Hao finally said: "General Zhao, can I understand that, the support promised by His Majesty of your country, you actually want to overturn His Majesty's oral order?"

"This..." Zhao Donghe got stuck in an instant.

Zhang Hao smiled very "gently": "If General Zhao wants to use this batch of pills to pay, I personally don't have any objections. But how you explain to your majesty and the country of Qixia, you have to be careful think about it.

The Zhang family is the Zhang family, and the country of Qixia is the country of Qixia, which is completely different. "

Zhao Donghyuk took a deep breath, his face full of confusion. Suddenly, someone next to Zhao Donghe heard a sound transmission. After a while, Zhao Donghe smiled: "Master Zhang, what do you think of this, we have some exercises here, and there are excellent exercises that can be cultivated to the peak of Yuanying.

A general skill that can be practiced to the late stage of Yuanying or even to the peak is worth 100,000 top-grade spirit stones. And an excellent technique is worth 300,000 top-grade spirit stones.

In addition, we also have some refining methods, alchemy techniques, etc., which can also be priced. "

Zhang Hao's eyes lit up. The problem of cultivation techniques has always been the biggest problem that plagued the Zhang family's development-the foundation is really the key.

But Zhang Hao still kept an eye out and asked Zhao Donghe to report the name of the exercise and the first few sentences, etc., and then went to Feng Zhiling, Guan Zhengqing, and even Zhou Shuhai, Gu Xingdong, Zhou Jue, Bai Ye, Zhang Xinhan and others to discuss it , See if you have the same ones here, and at the same time ask everyone's opinions, how much are these exercises worth.

After asking around, there was no overlap in the exercises, but everyone gave a lot of opinions on the price.

In the end, Zhang Hao obtained from Zhao Donghe three books of "Slaying Immortal Jue", "Fengming Jue" and "Ziyang Gong" that can be practiced to the late stage of Yuanying and even the peak, and a copy of "Five Elements Participating in the Same Deed". The secret book of alchemy.

And Zhang Hao paid one first-generation artillery, one second-generation artillery, 10,000 shells, and 50 tons of black iron for alchemy, with a purity requirement of more than 99.5%.

Zhang Hao got the exercise secret book on the spot; but he did not get the practice notes, records, annotations, etc. Without these, he would not be able to learn from the previous experience, problems encountered and solutions, etc., which is only equivalent to getting half of the exercise.

Zhao Donghe also got artillery and 100 shells on the spot-these shells can only be used on the battlefield of Qixia Kingdom, and Zhang Han personally trained Zhao Donghe and others to use artillery.

Training is an incidental service, and it can be regarded as a reward for the support of Zhao Donghe and others. And the technician training system unique to technical sales also made Zhao Donghe and others' eyes shine, and they even hired it.

As for the remaining shells and black iron, they will be delivered in succession within the next two months; by then Zhang Hao will be able to obtain the complete exercises.

As a true disciple of Xuanzhen Sect, Feng Zhiling guarantors both sides—by the way, Senior Brother Feng got a lot of benefits from Zhao Donghe, and extorted a ton of '99.9% Xuantie' from Zhang Hao.

If you want a disciple of Xuanzhen Sect to be a guarantor, you have to pay a price, and Feng Zhiling also has to charge a fee-this is the market price.

This was a happy transaction. After getting the cannon, Zhao Donghyuk personally tried two cannons, and immediately excitedly and actively discussed the next tactics with everyone - no longer passive and sabotage. He really wanted to throw these shells at the army of Jinyang Kingdom.

…………

However, when Zhang Hao was discussing excitedly, five hundred miles away, at the junction of Guangling County and Jianwu County, which is the second line of defense of the Qixia Kingdom, it was a different scene.

Just after dawn, the sky and the earth are still dark, and the faint fish-belly white in the east is as faint as candlelight.

At this time, Sima Zhen had led the remaining 350,000 legions to the second line of defense; Diao Deshan and other Nascent Soul stage masters also arrived, delivered three shells, and explained the situation at that time up.

After one night, Sima Zhen's solid foundation in the Nascent Soul stage broke out little by little, and he was able to stand on a high place and calmly command the army.

For a commander, cultivation is secondary, and brains come first.

In one night, Diao Deshan also carefully disassembled a cannonball. Just as Zhang Hao and Dugu Junjie were worried, Diao Deshan and others identified the gunpowder and ordinary gunpowder components in one night, and also took the cannonball The structure is understood.

"This black powder is composed of charcoal, saltpeter, and sulfur. The main black-red powder has some clues, but it still needs to be studied.

The most important thing is the structure of this weapon. Only when the weapon hits an object, the heavy hammer at the rear will hit the firing pin in front, which will then excite the black powder; the black powder will ignite those black and red of powder.

So, I thought of two ways to defend against shells. The first is to use space-like formations to slow down the speed, and eventually we will be able to capture this weapon. The second is to arrange a layer of rigid enchantment in front of the formation and detonate it in advance. "

Sima Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Although everyone still doesn't know that this thing is called a 'cannonball', at least they know that there is nothing mysterious about this weapon. That's good.

Sima Zhen carefully looked at the structure of the shell, and gradually frowned. The production of the cannonballs is actually...very delicate. The design between the firing pin and the weight is very ingenious. The front end of the weight is inclined. As long as it collides with the firing pin, sparks will be sparked.

In order to ensure that there will be sparks, there are three striker systems in the warhead part, one is steel, one is flint, and the other is steel striker plus flint hammer.

This design is because black powder is not particularly sensitive. Before the invention of Thunder Mercury, Zhang Hao could only solve the problem in this way.

On the firing pin and weight, there are also exquisite lines unique to machining.

As the commander in chief, Sima Zhen saw more. But soon he shifted his gaze, the most important thing now is not the cannonball, but... the second line of defense of the Qixia Kingdom ahead!
