Murong Qin's eyes lit up and said, "Let's hear the good news first." "
The good news is that Zhao De (Zhao Xiancheng) has been caught, he really went to the arsenal, if it wasn't for the people of the yamen to go in time, I'm afraid the arsenal will also be burned by him, according to his confession, it is indeed Xu Zhutou who released him, his purpose is to burn down the Yuanling granary, and steal the production method of the earth-shaking thunder.
Murong Qin nodded thoughtfully, "I know this, but what about the bad news?"
Nan Jinci frowned, "Zhao De is dead, and he was about to confess to the person behind the scenes, and when he was about to confess to the person behind the scenes, the assassin was already gone..."
Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, Zhao De's life and death are not so important for the time being, but fortunately, the arsenal was saved, and Gu Lao and the others were also safe and sound, for such a result, Murong Qin was already very satisfied, and she didn't expect anything from Zhao De.
Besides, if her guess was correct, the man in black was the strong guard with martial arts beside Qiu Tong, and it was normal for them to not catch that person if they had a mental calculation or not.
However, with such an extremely dangerous figure, Murong Qin instantly became vigilant, and she had a strong premonition that this person would appear again nine times out of ten.
It doesn't matter if the target is her, because she still has the power to protect herself, and if that person vents her anger with others, she is afraid that she will regret it at that time, so the top priority is to strengthen the patrol and defense of the county.
"Withdraw all the secret guards outside and send them to Canghe Village and my father's side, and let Uncle Hu increase manpower to patrol the city, if you find suspicious characters, you must report it in time!"
"Yes, Your Highness, I will give the order." Nan Jin said in agreement, and then said
, "And the most important thing, Brother Hu has just received the news, Chen Mingde ordered someone to pass the news, and he will arrive in Yuanling City today, His Royal Highness specially asked me to come and tell you." "
Chen Mingde
?" Murong Qin was a little surprised, "Is there a large army with you?"
"No. Nan Jinci shook his head and said.
She raised her eyebrows, this legendary Yongzhou prefect is not ordinarily bold, and he even dared to come to Yuanling County single-handedly, and she didn't know what the idea was.
However, when Qiu Tong was there, they were still not afraid of Yuanling, but now that Qiu Tong is dead, she doesn't believe that he can turn the sky over in Yuanling.

Time flies by, and it's noon in the blink of an eye.
Two carriages gradually appeared on the official road outside Yuanling, the carriage in front looked very simple, no different from ordinary carriages, in addition to a coachman on the carriage behind, there were also two strong guards, Xu because of the bumpy road, so the carriage speed was not fast, one after the other went straight to Yuanling County.
At last the carriage stopped, and one of the curtains was lifted a small corner, revealing a dignified-looking, slightly bearded face.
Looking at the closed city gate in front of him, a dark light flashed quickly in his eyes, waved over a token, and said to the coachman in front of him, "Go and call the door." The
coachman sighed, took the token with both hands, and said to the guards above, "Lord Chen, the prefect, is here, please inform Hu County."
After repeatedly confirming the identity of the person in front of them, they opened the city gate according to the instructions they had obtained in advance, and hurriedly sent people to the yamen.
The coachman raised his whip again, slowly passed through the city gate, and hurried in the direction of the county office.
And at this moment, in addition to Hu Changping, Murong Qin is taking Murong Qingyang, Nan Jinci and others in the arsenal, if nothing else, because there is a great joy in the arsenal today.
The first bed crossbow was finally successfully made
by Gu Lao! These days, Gu Lao has been sitting in the room to study the manufacturing method of the bed crossbow, Murong Qin's drawings are just a rough model, after all, she has only seen these things in books and TV series, so all the details have to be studied by Gu Lao after countless scrutiny.
After listening to Murong Qin's brief explanation of its power, everyone was amazed.
No one thought that this big guy in front of him who had never seen before would be so powerful, Gu Lao exclaimed
, "I originally thought that what kind of earth-shattering thunder and fire chariot had already reached the sky, who knew that this bed crossbow was even more beyond our imagination, the old man never thought that the power of the bow and arrow of the two positive and one negative would be so great, a distance of a thousand steps, and it is unique in the entire four countries, this is simply a peerless divine weapon!"
Yes, Your Highness, I can't wait to see its power. "
Yes, the old man also wants to see it..."Gu Xiong sighed.
Murong Qin smiled slightly and said
, "It's not simple, but this arsenal is too small to be used, and I'll take you to the training ground another day to see its power with everyone."
After that, her cold eyes looked at the scrap iron and semi-finished weapons piled up in the corner, remembered the method of filling steel that she thought of a few days ago, and her heart moved, and said
, "Old Gu, I have a method of filling steel here, which is also made of iron, but it is quite different from the iron-making method you use now, and the quality of the weapons made by this method is incomparable to these iron tools, do you want to try it?"
Iron is iron, can it be replaced with another thing
? Gu Lao was a little curious, "What kind of steel? Tell me about it." Because
of the cultural differences that are thousands of years apart, the specific knowledge in this Murong Qin is not easy to explain, so they can only use words that they can understand
, "The steel made by the method of filling steel is completely different from the iron tools made by the existing methods in Daling, in contrast, its strength is high, and it is not easy to break, if this method is used, it can not only improve the scale and speed of the production of weapons, but also make weapons that are several times sharper than ordinary weapons."
Such a weapon is used in the Yuanling army, and it will increase the overall military strength of Yuanling several times in the future, and it can not only make various weapons, but also other objects
, such as armor and other things..."Hearing this, not only Gu Lao was excited, but even Murong Qingyang and Nan Jinci and others were not calm, if as Murong Qin said, these steels have such great power, then wouldn't the armor made be invulnerable?
This is a major invention that changed the entire dynasty and the situation!
