Why are you still acting like this when it's nothing, Ming Yu couldn't figure it out, before he could ask any more questions, Xie Yixiu's voice sounded, "The prince sent all the guards out?"
He also heard a little bit when he was outside, but with Ming Yu's temperament, this is a good opportunity for military training, and the soldiers of the guard battalion will definitely go to exercise.
Ming Yu laughed awkwardly, "It's not that all of them have been sent out, some people have been retained, and the recruits have not gone. We will find an opportunity for the recruits to experience the atmosphere of the battlefield in the future."
Xie Yixiu frowned, "There is no one around the lord, I'm afraid it's not right."
"Sure, sure." Ming Yu smiled indifferently and said, "This king has his own measure. In Liangcheng, Liu Zhifu's management is fairly peaceful. As long as he doesn't leave the city, there won't be so many accidents."
Having said that, Xie Yixiu was still worried. He was not as easily persuaded as Mo Jiang. It was impossible for him, an outsider, to intervene in the prince's arrangement, so he had to be more careful.
Ming Yu has already changed the subject, "General Xie, your orders for clairvoyance are almost done. I have more important things to research and develop here. I plan to suspend the supply of clairvoyance, and wait until the scale of the craftsman workshop expands."
Xie Yixiu nodded, "Yes!" He glanced at Ming Yu, "I heard that the new crossbow made by the prince is very good?"
Thinking of the thing Mo Jiang was holding in his hand when he left just now, it must be the crossbow that Ji Yu mentioned, right? I have never seen it myself.
Ming Yu scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Hey! It's all a fool's play. It is not feasible to mass-produce this thing for the time being. When it is manufactured in the future, I will give one to the general for fun. "
If it can be produced in large quantities, the power of this thing combined with cavalry is not as simple as one plus one equals two. After all, cavalry is moving at high speed, and if it is bending bow and archery, it will test the individual's ability.
With this, you only need to raise your hand, and you can easily shoot the short arrow. It is fast, accurate, powerful, and can save a lot of effort.
Ming Yu's last sentence made Xie Yixiu feel better. He looked forward to what Ming Yu told him to give him, and he didn't shirk it, "The minister thanked the lord first!"

71. Chapter 71
The next day at home will be leisurely, in fact, it can't be said to be leisurely, after all Ming Yu is still worried about the situation of the guards. Yi Kou has long legs, so it is impossible to wait for the reinforcements to pass by, but since they have shown their tracks, I believe that they will not be free for long with the guards and people chasing and intercepting them.
Xie Yixiu seemed to be doing nothing these few days, and he would come and go from time to time. Ming Yu didn't understand his actions. Didn't it mean that Shi Chongguan was in an emergency right now? Why are you still free
But Ming Yu didn't care about him so much, he still had to do his own business, and if he couldn't go to other places, he would go to the craftsman's workshop every day. As for Xie Yixiu, let him follow if he wants to.
The craftsmen are both afraid and looking forward to Mingyu's arrival. Because every time Ming Yu comes, he always brings with him strange ideas, which are obviously impossible things, but when Ming Yu speaks them out, they become things that can exist for granted.
Every time Ming Yu just opened his mouth and said, the rest had to be left to them to do. They used to follow the rules, and they just did what their superiors asked them to do. Now they just draw a big cake and put it there , They still have to use their imagination to figure out how to make something decent.
Ming Yu calls this research and development, and research and development requires an attitude of research and development, in order to innovate something that has never been done before, and it will be famous forever in the future.
… They are famous all over the world, they don’t have such a high level of enlightenment, they just rely on their craftsmanship to make a living, and they never thought of creating something shocking to the world!
However, whether it is clairvoyance or glass products made by them now, which one is not an extremely magical thing? Casually letting them out makes people's jaws drop. I heard that the glass mirrors, wine glasses, and vases brought by the caravan to the capital are all snapped up by everyone. Now the caravan has set off to the Western Regions again, bringing the glass products there. I don't know how much commotion it will cause.
The effects of these things are obvious, but when they were researching and developing, they couldn't sleep all night long. All they thought about was how to make them and how to get closer to success. No one knows how much hair they have whitened, but when they really succeed, their inner pride and complacency are incomparable to anything else. So they really respect and fear Ming Yu.
"How is it? Do you have any opinions?" Ming Yu looked around and asked with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, with a bitter face, and their eyes were all blank.
Huang Lao took two steps forward, his face flushed, "What the prince said, the villain has checked many ancient books, and finally he has a clue."
Ming Yu nodded, "Old Huang, sit down and talk about it."
Huang Lao was not polite, he sat down opposite Ming Yu, twisted his gray beard with two fingers, and said: "My lord, the villain only found some one-sided records in the book "Pu Fang". Hundreds of years ago, an alchemist was in the process of refining alchemy. Due to the failure of refining, there were flames rising into the sky, thunder and roaring. After the calm, someone went to check, and the house was razed to the ground. There were big pits and rubble Scattered around. I just don’t know if it is in the same line as what the prince said?”
A few days ago, the prince came over and convened a meeting, saying that clairvoyance could no longer be produced, and they had no time to breathe a sigh of relief, and then the prince's key point came, asking them to develop a powerful object that could explode mountains and rocks.
Sure enough, every time the prince appeared in the workshop, he came to give them a difficult problem again. What can explode rocks? If there is such a thing, how can there be such a thing as Yugong Yishan? My lord! We can still do one hundred and eighty clairvoyance, so this problem is still avoided, right
Ming Yu smiled, "Believe in yourself, you can create miracles."
"..." I believe you a ghost.
Hearing Huang Lao's words, Ming Yu was very pleased and nodded, "Thank you Huang Lao."
It's good to have a look, then it's worth looking forward to, I believe they will not let themselves down. What Ming Yu wants is explosives that can be used in mining, road construction, and water conservancy. He wants to open rivers and build canals. With this, he can save a lot of effort.
Xie Yixiu looked at Ming Yu, remained silent without speaking, but there was a different look in his eyes. At this time, Ming Yu can definitely attract everyone's attention.
Everyone has long been used to General Xie, who often appears by the prince's side recently. Hearing that the guards around the prince have been sent out, General Xie will go with him to protect the prince's safety.
At this time, everyone who heard the conversation was stunned. What is the connection between alchemy and what the prince said? But they'd better keep their ears open.
"My lord, the villain has read a lot of Taoist alchemy sayings, 'Burning sulfur, realgar and saltpeter with honey will cause flames to rise. Note ①If the fire is too strong, it is possible to burn down the house." Huang Lao said There was a pause here, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and he smiled wryly: "It's just that the villain still doesn't understand a little bit."
Ming Yu straightened his expression, nodded to tell Mr. Huang to just keep talking.
Mr. Huang cleared his throat, and then said: "My lord, although the flame is powerful, it is just burning. The effect you want is to blow up the rocky road, my lord, which makes the villain a little confused. No matter how big the flame is, it's impossible to explode, let alone blow up the rocks, right?"
Mr. Huang has checked many books, except that the scene recorded in the pamphlet called "Pu Fang" is 70% similar to what Ming Yu said, there is no such situation in the rest. So he was not sure if the direction he found was correct.
It turned out to be this question, but Ming Yu laughed. These were originally two different questions. First of all, the fire and medicine must be developed before the next step can be performed. Huang Lao being able to ask this question shows that he has been very attentive.
In the original world, fire and medicine were one of the four great inventions, and later they were gradually applied in the military. Rockets, fireballs, and fire thorns can all cause considerable damage.
But here, people didn't pay much attention to it, it was just a product left by the alchemist's occasional mistakes when making alchemy, no one paid attention to it at all. He remembered that fire was also used in later generations, and medicine was gradually used in military affairs only a thousand years after its invention. However, we failed to make good use of this point, and finally were used by others as a sharp weapon against us. It is really sad and deplorable!
"We have to take this step by step. First, we know the formula that caused this situation. Then we restore the formula and try its power first. When we can develop it stably and fully understand its performance. We will then In the next step, we will continue to discuss the effect of increasing the power of bursting." Ming Yu thought for a while and said.
Still can't be too hasty! Always give them time and let them take their time.
The workshop quickly started to operate, except for the peripheral apprentices, everyone
