Chapter 399 Small Cannon

Lu Dongzan smiled and glanced at Du Xiuyuan, without saying a word, his contempt was beyond words.

"I didn't find it?" Master Lin snorted: "This little beast is running very fast. I want to find it. I must take care of it. Ah, Brother Lu, where did we just say?"

Mr. Lin talked nonsense, Lu Dongzan didn't have time to spend with him, he hugged his chest and saluted and said in a serious tone: "Master Lin, the vehicle has been searched, the Persian cat was not taken away with me, is the Lord? You can rest assured? The Great Khan of Pijia is expecting me to bring back the good news with Dahua. With his life on the line, Lu Dongzan does not dare to stay for a long time, and please ask Lord Lin to let us set off as soon as possible.”

"Let's go?" Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Brother Lu is a guest from afar, and the younger brother hasn't had a good discussion with you. Why did you just leave? Turks and I, Dahua, are thousands of miles away, so why do you have to walk for ten and a half days? Yue's, don't care about such a short hour, I still have something to tell Brother Lu."

Lu Dongzan was stunned for a while, and seemed to glance into the distance inadvertently, his face was calm as usual: "Lord Lin, what else can you tell Lu Dongzan? Please speak bluntly."

Lin Wanrong waved his hand, and Du Xiuyuan handed him a toy. Lin Wanrong fiddled with it a few times and said with a smile, "Brother Lu, do you recognize this?"

"Cannon?!" Lu Dongzan was shocked. It turned out that Lin Wanrong was holding a small model of a cannon, the size of a palm, made of wood, and his craftsmanship was very exquisite.

"This little thing is made by the skilled craftsmen of our Dahua. The children like it very much and can be bought everywhere." Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "It's like you Turkic people have been riding for a long time and have been suppressed. It's such a small one."

"Sir, are you going to give this to me?" A smile appeared on Lu Dongzan's face. This Lord Lin was quite enthusiastic, and remembered to give me a gift before leaving.

"Oh. This thing is too big for you to use. I'd better leave it to my family to prosper. This is what I gave you." Lord Lin waved his hand again. Lu Dongzan looked at it and was dumbfounded. This time, it was still a model of an artillery piece, only three-pointed in size, with a long thumb and a thin barrel. Thin and frail, at first glance it is a defective product.

"Well, that's almost it." Lord Lin took a careful look at the extra small ground artillery. Satisfaction is evident in his words: "Brother Lu, this is a small cannon specially made by Dahua, a simplified version of Shoyang. It is specially prepared for Fanwai people. It is a limited edition. It is not available on the market and has great collection value. The so-called sword is given to the hero, and the small cannon is given to the Turks. Now I will give it to you, you must keep it well."

You're too embarrassed to give it to me for such a fucking junk that a child doesn't even want? The spicy nose grass and the sweaty BMW I gave you, which one is not an indestructible treasure! Lu Dongzan couldn't help laughing and crying,

Seeing that Lord Lin was extremely cautious, he had to pretend to take it with enthusiasm, and said "thankfully", "Lord Xie Lin gave such a generous gift, may we go now?"

"Let's go?! Oh, you can. Of course you can. Hey, why didn't you see your country's special envoy, Brother Ashle? I also prepared a small cannon for him." Master Lin said enthusiastically.

Lu Dongzan hurriedly shook his head: "Oh, Ashler has something else to do and left last night. Lu Dongzan thanked him for your kindness."

In the distance, a burst of dust was raised, and a rush of horses' hooves broke through the air. Lin Wanrong smiled and put away the small cannon: "Really, he runs faster than my Persian cat. Hey, isn't that Xu Zhen? Du Xiuyuan, go up and see what's going on, but don't get in the way of Lu Dongzan, who is in a hurry."

The dust was rolling in front, and hundreds of cavalrymen rushed here with three carts and dozens of Turks, and it was Xu Zhen who was at the forefront. When Lu Dongzan saw the carts, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly winked at the knights who were guarding him. The saber in the hands of the Turks was raised high, and in the light of the fire just lit by the horse team, it flashed a cold brilliance.

"Pump!" "Pump!" Two loud bangs shot up into the sky, and there was a flash of fire in the distance, causing the Hu people and horses to neigh in unison, and the Turkic knights hurriedly tightened the reins and clamped the horse's belly. He dropped the cavalry on his back, and it took a long time before he calmed down. The horses were frightened, and the Turks were almost thrown off their horses.

Du Xiuyuan said excitedly: "General Lin, the soldiers of our Shenji Battalion are in front of them, and they are firing guns. These two guns are accurate."

"Really?" Lin Wanrong smiled and shook his head: "Tell them to shoot a few more shots and say goodbye to the National Teacher Lu Dongzan. It's not easy for them to come all the way."

Xu Zhen galloped over, jumped off the horse, and did not care to wipe the dust off his face, he said with a smile: "Report to the general, the last general found an abnormal situation when he patrolled more than 20 miles ahead, then suddenly—"

"I protest, I protest—" Before Xu Zhen could finish speaking, a burst of blunt Chinese came from the front, and one of the three double-teamed trucks shouted in a loud voice.

"What the hell are you calling?" Xu Zhen's two hundred households kicked the horse in front of the horse, and a whip hit the back of the Hu man, the Hu Ma jumped forward in shock, but the front was blocked with people and horses and couldn't move, so he had to neigh. With a bang, his front hooves jumped high, almost perpendicular to the ground. The Turkic man was unstable in grasping his mane, and fell heavily to the ground. The Dahua soldiers who were watching laughed out loud. Lu Dongzan's complexion changed greatly, and the Turkic cavalry around him couldn't bear it any longer.

"Lord Lin, what is your intention?" Lu Dong praised loudly, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and it gushed out.

"Brother Lu, what do you mean by this?" Lord Lin opened his eyes wide, his face full of confusion: "I don't seem to have offended you!"

Lu Dongzan snorted, and a ferocious light flashed in his eyes: "Ashle is my Turkic envoy. He was ordered by Pija Khan to come to pay homage to Emperor Dahua. There is an old saying in Dahua. Behead, why did your lord insult Asle so much?"

"Ashle?" Lord Lin's eyes were wider than Lu Dongzan's: "You said that the one who stopped in front was the special envoy of Ashler? Oh, that is to treat the nobles slowly. There was a bandit trouble in Shandong a few days ago, and the people around the capital were affected by it. In order to be implicated, the emperor ordered to strengthen the patrol, and all suspicious people were taken down. I didn't expect to arrest Lord Ashler by mistake. However, Brother Lu, I asked you to be confused. After leaving the capital, why are you here again now?"

"This—" Lu Dongzan hesitated for a while, not knowing how to explain, and Xu Zhen next to him clasped his fists: "Tell General Lin, the last general was ordered to inspect fifty miles around the capital, and twenty miles ahead, he found a group of people rushing Three big carts. They scurried forward furtively, and the general warned repeatedly, but they refused to execute. In desperation, the general had to take them back and ask the general to send them."

"Lord Lin, I protest, I protest." Ashler had already got up from the ground, his body covered with dust. He looked very embarrassed: "I am a special envoy of the Turks, and I was treated so savagely by your subordinates. I must confess to the great sweat. Sending troops to attack—"

"What did you say?" Master Lin squinted his eyes abruptly, and a burst of divine light burst out, extremely cold, and Ashler was shocked when he saw it, and he didn't dare to say the next words.

"Lord Lin, Lu Dongzan must seek justice from His Majesty the Emperor of your country for today's matter. You openly sent troops to besiege and arrest the Turkic envoy. It is really deceiving. Report." Lu Dongzan was a Turkic national teacher, and in terms of calmness, he was much better than Ashle.

"Too much to deceive people? Brother Lu, I should have said this right." Lin Wanrong smiled coldly: "You Turks come to Dahua, I, the subjects of Emperor Dahua, treat each other with courtesy and sincerity, but how do you treat each other? I'm from Dahua?"

"Lord Lin, although there is a dispute between our two countries, but the private detaining of the envoys and other acts, I Turks can't do it. You are so daring, aggravating the disputes between the two countries, and causing the people to be caught in water and fire, you are not afraid of becoming a Dahua. A sinner through the ages?" Now that his face was torn apart, Lu Dongzan had no scruples, confronted each other and never gave in.

"Secretly detaining envoys? Trapping the people? What a big crime!" Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Brother Lu, I didn't expect you Turks to buckle up big hats. Zhang face - is it scary? Say something unpleasant, I have seen white-haired, green-haired, and black-haired devils a lot. As soon as you lift your ass, I know what shit you are going to do."

Lord Lin sneered, his rascal tone gave Lu Dongzan a headache. Although he was a Turkic national teacher, he was helpless in the face of such a different kind of big Chinese, so he snorted coldly: "Dahua treats guests like this, I am a Turk. Learned."

Lord Lin said with a loud laugh: "The way Dahua treats guests is a public opinion. It's not your turn to make comments like you thieves."

Before Lu Dongzan could speak, Ashle over there was already shouting loudly: "My Turkic warrior is an eagle in the valley and grassland, how can I be a thief? How dare you insult my brave and invincible Turkic eagle? Lin San, I'm going to fight you."

"Dueling?" Lin Wanrong giggled and said, "Okay, I like dueling the most. But before that, I have to prove one thing, and let the people of Dahua see that you fierce and domineering Turks are heroes. Eagle, or thief? Xu Zhen, Du Xiuyuan, search—"

Dahua was accustomed to being bullied by the Hu people, and he was already used to being submissive, but today, Lord Lin has swept away Dahua's past decline, and his attitude is extremely tough, which amazes his brothers. Under the leadership of Lord Lin, being able to bully the Hu people once was simply a life-long bragging rights. Without waiting for Du Xiuyuan's orders, hundreds of Dahua soldiers had already rushed forward like wolves and took the three large trucks where Ashler was located. The car turned upside down.

Countless pieces of silk, satin, cloth and tea were thrown open, and there was a thud, and the tip of a soldier's spear seemed to have stabbed something hard. Du Xiuyuan looked overjoyed, and several soldiers overturned the cart, and the lingering disappeared. , a swarthy iron gun barrel lay on the ground, shining faintly.

Ashle and Lu Dongzan's faces changed drastically, Ashle clenched his saber and winked straight at Lu Dongzan. Lu Dong glanced at the Dahua soldiers who were staring at him, and shook his head gently.

"Reporting to General, the search found one of my Dahua refined artillery barrels, one base, and several fuses." Du Xiuyuan reported with a tall chest and a majestic report.

It is really "refined", Lin Wanrong smiled in his heart, stepped forward, and slowly stroked the specially made "Fake Cannon". An icy feeling spread into the palm of his hand. Even a pile of scrap metal cannot be taken away by the Hu people.

Lin Wanrong sneered: "Brother, are you noble prairie eagles treating hospitable masters like this? What are you stealing this artillery for? You want to study thorough simulation and imitation? What kind of arsenic Khan are you? A little smart, but also a know-it-all."

"It's Pijia Khan, not arsenic." Ashle whispered, and Lord Lin raised his head and glared at him, and he didn't dare to speak.

Lu Dongzan sighed secretly, Dahua artillery is the biggest threat to the Turks, and now the two countries are at war again. into Lin San's hands. This is Lin San's way of doing things. Without the fine traditions of the Dahua people, they are really scum among scumbags.

"Lord, look!" Xu Zhen looked solemn. The soldiers were instructed to push down the other two carts. After a loud bang, the lid of the box hidden in the car was released, and black powder poured down.

Dip some powder with his finger and check it carefully, Lin Wanrong smiled coldly: "Brother Lu. What is this?"

"Lord Lin, why should you ask for the reason you know?" Lu Dongzan said calmly, he is a national teacher, and he is calm. Knowing that preserving their strength is the best strategy, Ashi Le's proposal was rejected without hesitation. With Lin San's skill, he resisted a little, and all of them were waiting for them to be slaughtered. Lu Dongzan was convinced.

Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Brother Lu really worked hard. I don't know where you got these hundreds of kilograms of gunpowder. You have to travel thousands of miles back to the Turks, so tough. Where did you buy it? My brother also wants to get some firecrackers for the New Year!"

Lu Dongzan said calmly: "Gunpowder, buy land at the market. As Lord Lin said, we just take it back and set some fireworks to play."

Lin Wanrong raised his head and laughed: "To set off fireworks, that's good! I was on the road a few days ago, and I was almost set off by fireworks. Brother Lu has the same hobby as them."

This Lin San thought carefully, analyzed the problem carefully, and a casual sentence could make him grasp the key. Lu Dongzan was shocked and hurriedly stopped talking.

"Actually, I know if you don't tell me." Lin Wanrong smiled slightly: "These hundreds of kilograms of explosives are not a small amount, and it can't be done without the skill of the sky and the earth. Brother Lu, am I right?"

Knowing that some things can't be hidden from Lin San, Lu Dongzan is also a cool person, he laughed and said, "Brother Lin, although you and I are hostile, but in my opinion, Lu Dongzan is within the scope of this greatness. , the only person I admire is you. If other people have half of your backbone and wisdom, Dahua will not be the Dahua it is now. It’s a pity that you Dahua are greedy for comfort, not enterprising, and what’s more For the sake of one's own selfish desires, even the ancestors can betray it, which is really embarrassing."

To call a barbarian so underestimate, Master Lin is not angry, but Lu Dongzan's remarks are right on the point, Dahua has suffered many disasters and has been abused, it is heartbreaking, and even more infuriating, Throughout the dynasties, Dahua will lack everything, but never lack of Chinese traitors. What is this for?

"General Lin, General Lin—" Hu Bugui's gentle question interrupted Lin Wanrong's thoughts: "What should we do with these Hu people?"

It's easy to catch these people, but it's not that simple to deal with. You can't kill or let them go, which makes people scratch their heads. No wonder Lu Dong is so calm when he approves of prisoners. He clearly sees the pulse. This Lu Dongzan is not as reckless and bloody as ordinary Hu people. He can bend and stretch. He is really a talent.

"Take them to the army, tell the two adults Xu Wei and Li Tai, and ask them to report to the emperor for disposal." Lin Wanrong waved his hand and handed the hot potato to Lao Xu and the emperor for embarrassment.

"Let go of me, let me go, I'll go by myself!" Several soldiers pushed Lu Dongzan forward, Lu Dongzan struggled for a while, his clothes were messy, and even the small cannon in his hand fell to the ground .

"Let him go!" Lin Wanrong waved.

Lu Dongzan looked back at him, smiled and said: "Lin Lin, today's fight, Lu Dongzan will lose first. But in the future, the two countries will fight against each other, and Lu Dongzan will never lose to you again. superior."

Lin Wanrong waved his hand and motioned for the generals to take away several Hu people. Du Xiuyuan stood beside him and said strangely, "General, how did you know Ashle's whereabouts?"

Lin Wanrong smiled slightly: "This is easy to say. Lu Dongzan is an extraordinary person, and he is very interested in my Dahua artillery skills. After doing everything possible to borrow the artillery, he played a trick. He knew that we would send people to surveil secretly, so he deliberately Pretending to be stupid, it caused a lot of uproar in the capital, and made everyone uneasy about a few idiots. Secretly, it was already planned. After Li Daitao was dead, he would disassemble the artillery and bring it back to the Turks. We chased here just now, only to see Lu Dongzan, I haven't seen Ashler, and his carriage formation is so neat and unhurried, it seems that he is deliberately blocking the way. And the most important point, as you said, Brother Du, they have cleaned up. There were at least seven carts, but Lu Dongzan only had four or five. Where did the remaining three go? There is only one possibility. On the road, I instructed Xu Zhen to ride lightly and carefully, and chase after the wild road, and I really found it."

After listening to General Lin's analysis, Du Xiuyuan suddenly realized that his admiration was indescribable. Lin Wanrong squatted down and picked up something that fell in the sand.

This is the small cannon that was just given to Lu Dongzan. It fell apart and fell apart. Seeing Lord Lin carefully blowing off the soil from the cannon, Du Xiuyuan said, "General Lin, this small cannon has to come. doing what?"

Mr. Lin smiled: "Although the cannon is small, it is better than the earthworm. The Turkic people need it, but the people of Dongying hope it more. Put it away, put it away, and go back to Dongying to give gifts!"
