Chapter 72 Zhu Yuanzhang got rid of a heart problem

A few days later, the three siblings rushed back to Yingtian Mansion.

Looking at the magnificent and lively Yingtian Mansion, and then thinking about the small and desolate Yinmagou, the three brothers and sisters felt that their experiences in the past few days were like a dream.

But Xu Miaoqing knew that her experience was real.

Not only because he obtained the key craftsmanship of the gun, but also because he witnessed a thrilling battle!

Because Wei Guogong Xu Da was disappointed with Bird Gun, he left Yingtian Mansion before waiting for them and went to Shanxi to supervise the army.

But Zhu Yuanzhang was very looking forward to their trip, so he summoned Xu Huizu himself, and Ma Dajiao met Xu Miaoyun.

However, the brother and sister did not receive news from King Yan Zhu Di, because Zhu Di did not understand which link had gone wrong.

As for the "sight" that the two heard from Xu Miaoqing, what exactly it was and where it was installed, they really couldn't tell.

"Your Majesty, why don't you call me second sister to make it clear?"

Xu Huizu suggested.

"Well, it seems that can only be the case."

Zhu Yuanzhang actually doesn't like girls running around, and his Ning Guo is an exception. That means everything happens for a reason.

But in order to get the secret of Bird Gun, Xu Miaoqing can only be called into the palace now.

After Xu Miaoqing arrived, before Zhu Yuanzhang could speak, he started to perform excitedly: "Your Majesty, do you know the difference between the blunderbuss made by us and Liao Tiancheng?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say a word, but he secretly complained in his heart: Why did Xu Da give birth to such a turbulent daughter?Originally, I still wanted the son she promised to us, but now it seems that I’d better forget it.

Xu Miaoqing saw that he was silent, but she didn't mind at all, and continued to gesture happily: "Each of the muskets over Yinmagou was equipped with a sight last year! With this thing, it is almost guaranteed to hit the target! This is also the fundamental reason why they frequently hit the bullseye during target practice!"

Sight?
Zhu Yuanzhang was at a loss for a while.

"That's it!"

Xu Miaoqing picked up the chopsticks and pretended to be a blunderbuss, and placed a bite of pastry on the chopsticks. She hid her eyes behind the pastry and glanced around, making a show of herself.

Although his actions were funny, fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born in the military, understood it instantly.

"I see! This is a good idea! This kid Tiancheng is still as smart as ever and has unique insights!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that he immediately asked someone to bring a box of rouge and gouache and gave it to Xu Miaoqing.

"Niece Miaoqing, you have made a great contribution this time. We will give you and me more credit later! Go ahead, we have to tell those stupid blacksmiths about this secret right away!"

Xu Miaoqing stood up, but couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, a big battle has been fought between Yinmagou and Dongchahatai. Do you know?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and frowned: "We haven't received the report yet, is your news reliable? How big of a battle is it?"

Xu Miaoqing immediately held out three fingers: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely reliable. I saw it with my own eyes! There are a total of [-] cavalry in Dongchahatai!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face condensed, and his heart trembled secretly!
"What about the casualties in Yinmagou?"

Xu Miaoqing shook her head: "We don't know how many casualties we have suffered, because after the battle, the commander Liao Tiancheng was seriously injured. King Yan has been busy taking care of him and did not count the casualties. The little girl has no way of knowing. However, the casualties of the Yuan soldiers were quite heavy. Outside the Yinma ditch, the corpses of the Yuan soldiers were almost as high as Juma!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked in his heart: "Liao Tiancheng, seriously injured? What happened? The camp at Yinmagou was breached?" "That's not true. At that time, King Yan led his troops to kill, and Liao Tiancheng also led the city defenders from the other side. While killing him, King Yan was fine, but he failed."

"How dare he lead his troops to fight out?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't believe his ears.

"Niece Miaoqing, are you sure that he really led his troops to kill him?"

Xu Miaoqing also looked surprised: "Yes, Your Majesty, what's wrong? Do you think he is as timid as a mouse?"

Zhu Di smiled bitterly.

In his heart, although Liao Tiancheng cannot be described as timid as a mouse, it is not an exaggeration to say that he cherishes his life like gold.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to break his head, he would not understand that when Zhu Di led his troops to fight out, Liao Tiancheng not only did not take the opportunity to escape, but also dared to lead his troops to fight out!

Did this kid take the wrong medicine?

But no matter what, it was his fault to force Liao Tiancheng to that place. Thinking of Liao Tiancheng's various contributions, but now he was injured and almost died, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

Well, when he comes back, we must give him some substantial rewards!
"Niece Miaoqing, there are only ten thousand imperial troops in Yinmagou. How did they repel the Yuan soldiers? Have Geng Bingwen's reinforcements arrived?"

Xu Miaoqing shook his head: "I didn't see any reinforcements. Later I vaguely heard that the enemy was defeated by the combination of gunshot and wine. But I don't know exactly how. Because I was quickly driven away by King Yan and Liao Tiancheng !”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care whether she was driven away or left on her own initiative. He was thinking, what is the combination of gun and wine?

Those who can defeat large groups of Yuan soldiers must be extremely powerful.

But even Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't figure out what role wine played in this.

"This battle was fought at a high level! We actually don't understand how we won it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, feeling old.

"Okay, niece Miaoqing, you go back first. You have done a great job this time! Not only did you bring back the key technology of the gun, but you also brought back the battle report from the front! As expected of Xu Da's daughter, very good!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang praised him, he got up and went out. While asking people to inquire about the battle situation in the direction of Yinmagou, he personally found the imperial blacksmith and studied with them whether the sight could save Yingtianfu's musket.

It has to be said that the blacksmiths around Zhu Yuanzhang, whether in terms of skills or intelligence, can indeed stabilize the one hundred blacksmiths in Liao Tiancheng's hands.

In less than half a day, the sight was ready. During the test, it could hit the target, and it was not uncommon to hit the bullseye.

"In less than half a day, we solved a big problem for us! The key lies in such a small thing!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the sight and was amazed.

"Liao Tiancheng, with his intelligence, I am afraid that if he is second, no one will dare to be first! We have so many skilled craftsmen in Yingtian Mansion, and their ancestors have been doing this for generations, but I can't think of it! It's true that people are better than others. Differs greatly!"

"Make a large batch of these three-eyed bird guns immediately! Work day and night! The manufactured bird guns will be delivered to Xu Da immediately!"

A heart ailment that had troubled Zhu Yuanzhang during this period was suddenly cured, and Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Hey, it's done! I knew that this gun was a good thing before, but I couldn't make it. It almost made me die!!"
