In the end, it was the third son who went out. Lin Yuan didn't let go because Wu Yuelian's initiative to invite Yingying. From his point of view, the third son was obviously better at this kind of action than Wu Yuelian. As a little bandit, the third son wasn't brave enough. He described being thin, short-handed and short-footed, and there was almost no movement when he ran, but his eyesight was very good. Lin Yuan gave them a simple vision test earlier.

Most of the people here have different degrees of vision problems. Many people think that the ancients did not touch electronic products. The sunrise and sunset, the vision is definitely better than most modern people.

But in fact, a group of them have been malnourished since childhood. They want to do something at night. The poor are in the moonlight, and the richer are in the oil lamp. They don't have glasses, and the weakening of their eyesight is unstoppable.

Many people have night blindness, but it's just a matter of severity.

Sanzi left after turning his head one step at a time. He arched his waist, narrowed his neck, and went out through the small narrow door behind.

This narrow gate can only allow one person to pass through. This person cannot be too fat or too strong. The three sons are considered thin among men, but it is still a bit difficult to get out.

Sitting in the open space, Lin Yuan felt that his mood had calmed down a lot. He didn't seem to be afraid of having enemies anymore, as if he had completely accepted this fate.

From the time he traveled to the present, he worked hard to do what he could do, although he told himself that the Yuan Dynasty was going to be over, the land was going to be chaotic, and those who were able could get a share.

But he still couldn't help but doubt himself.

Yes, doubt.

He wondered if he could do it.

In fact, thinking about it carefully, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had a very bumpy first half of his life. The education he received was irregular and not a formal education. In this era, any scholar can finish him, but he has become The emperor, and countless scholars can only look up at him and breathe.

Can modern people's theoretical knowledge be taken advantage of in ancient times?

Talk about gender equality? Everyone would think he was crazy.

He had previously told Qiuniang a joke of "Who said women are inferior to men", and Qiuniang looked at him with an incredible look.

Invention of the big train|cannon? He thought about it, but the fact is that he knows nothing.

He knows steam power, but he doesn't know how to build a steam train.

If you come to an all-round engineering boss, maybe you can open up another path.

But God just sent him, a liberal arts student.

Is he better than Zhu Yuanzhang? Are they better than Fang Shicheng?

Lin Yuan asked himself, he is no better than anyone.

To be precise, he is weaker than them, and much weaker.

Because even if he knows the history, he can actually do very little, and Zhu Yuanzhang and the others don't need to know the history. They seem to be born with a gene, which prompts them to do different things in different situations.

Most people in this world are profit creatures, pursuing personal interests and family interests. They can't do much, but they don't make any serious mistakes.

Zhu Yuanzhang and the others are the smallest group of people. They are born as power creatures and political creatures.

They have more keen insight than ordinary people, and they also understand better than ordinary people how to get more support from the crowd.

Lin Yuan looked at the white clouds in the sky with the blades of grass in his hands. His mood was more peaceful. It seemed that since he felt that he was not that strong, the burden in his heart has been lightened a lot. He always feels Come, standing on the shoulders of giants, he will definitely do better than the ancient natives, so every time he does something, he will think and deduct repeatedly.

But in fact, after he figured it out, he let go.

Taking one step is one step, anyway, this life is for nothing.

Even if in the end, he was submerged in the torrent of the times, that was also an established destiny.

The third son was crawling in the grass. He was scared and nervous. It was the first time he acted as a scout—what the boss called, and he still didn’t understand what a scout meant. He lay motionless in the grass, and the insect crawled over. His body and face did not move at all.

It seems that he is a stone on the side of the road.

He was still looking, carefully listening for the sound of footsteps and movements around him.

After he confirmed his safety, he quickly stood up and Sa Yazi started to run.

While running, the three sons were also observing the road ahead, where there were branches and where was the mud. He could see clearly that he was on the soft soil, with his feet straddling all the branches, for the sake of his life, even if There should be no one around, and he won't make a noise.

At this time, timidity and fear became the capital of his life.

After finally seeing Brother Dao and Zhu Yuanzhang and the others, the three sons' hearts finally fell to the ground.

"Captain Li, Captain Zhu." The third son felt safe, and his back straightened a little bit. He flatly reported the group of bandits stationed outside Zhuangzi, and then quickly said Lin Yuan's explanation. What he does.

Sanzi has a very good memory. He doesn’t need pen and paper. Once he says that he remembers, he can repeat it verbatim: "The owner said, after you get closer, Zhuangzi will raise the red flag, that’s the instruction. , The city gate will open, and these people will be attacked on both sides."

Li Congrong and the others came back with what Chen Banxian and the others needed. At this moment, they can only find a place to hide the things-these things are not easy to buy, and now people are not full enough to eat, not to mention the things that cannot be eaten. Having said that, it is also common for high-ranking officials to raise a few Taoist priests, and there are many alchemists, but not everyone raises them, and not everyone raises a large group.

They still bought it from a veteran, and the veteran’s asking price is not high, but he only needs grain, coarse grains and fine grains. Coarse grains are the best and the quantity is large. If they are old grains, they can change more.

The old Daoist wants to raise more than himself. His Taoist temple has more than 20 small turnip heads, all children without parents and mothers. They have followed the old Daoist since childhood and learned their skills from the old Daoist.

Taoist temples are different from temples. Many Taoist temples are actually wild. In difficult times, the court will not give them a grain of rice.

There are also wild temples in temples, but as long as the temples are on the right track, such as Huangjue Temple, there will be food from the court.

Li Congrong really wanted to bring back the old Taoist chief and the group of small carrot heads. He is now a little smarter. He feels that he has brought these people back. The fourth brother must have some use for them.

It is a pity that the old Taoist did not agree.

But this year, it is normal to disagree.

The days outside are now even more sad. When they came back, they passed by a village. The men rushed out to stop them, and the women opened their hearts and told them to touch them. If they touched them, they could just give them some beans. If they need to do something else, then You have to give a handful of whole grains.

They make a living by it.

Before that, they were probably just small villagers who sang and sang their wives. Other men looked at their wives and beat them.

When Li Congrong watched them wait for his wife and other men to finish their affairs with numb expressions, and then hunched over to ask for afterthoughts, a chill rose from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads.

Not only women, but also some men who look good.

What they want is just a mouthful of food that can survive.

He also saw a boy with slender hands and feet pressed under him by a strong man. After the strong man was gone, the boy had blood on his butt, and then he lay his hands on the food left by the strong man without washing. Boil and chew directly in your mouth.

As for whether he will die, he probably doesn't care about himself, only whether his belly is full.

It is obviously already spring, but the vitality seems to have not arrived yet.

Everyone thinks that after the beginning of spring, with wild vegetables, everyone can live better.

But thinking is just thinking.

Li Congrong didn't know why, but he also felt a sense of sadness. If he wasn't lucky, if it wasn't for the position of Zhuangzi placed by the fourth brother, where is he now?

Did you become a bandit or a bandit, or just like the people in the village, find a daughter-in-law and ask her to sell skin and meat for food?

"Brother Dao?" Zhu Yuanzhang called him.

Only then did Li Congrong come back to his senses.

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Li Congrong, "We are here, they are here."

Zhu Yuanzhang drew a simple map on the ground, which Li Congrong could also understand.

After determining the direction and tactics, they first hid the things they wanted to bring back, and then the group proceeded cautiously like thieves. They were all wearing green rattan armor, which is also natural in the spring woods. Protective coloration.

A bit of camouflage uniforms.

Lin Yuan stood on the observation deck and watched carefully. Now he was not alone on the observation deck. Everyone had to watch the surroundings intently. After all, they didn't know where Li Congrong and Zhu Yuanzhang would come out.

"Come!" someone whispered.

Lin Yuan: "Raise the flag!"

A red flag was raised from the observation deck.

Brother Dao saw it, as did the group of people waiting outside the city wall.

The moment Lin Yuan raised the flag, the city gate opened.

Everyone rushed out at that moment. They were used to following Lin Yuan's instructions. They rushed where Lin Yuan pointed. Some were timid, but when everyone around them was rushing, they could only follow. The crowd rushed past.

Zhu Yuanzhang was holding the knife, he kicked the person in front of him, the tip of the knife was facing down, and he thrust the enemy's chest across.

Then someone behind him was attacking with a knife, and Zhu Yuanzhang was about to draw the knife, but that person had already been turned upside down.

Li Congrong's face was bloodied: "You should change this habit."

Zhu Yuanzhang drew up the knife: "I will remember next time."

These people are not as easy to deal with as the people they met before. They are a group of real desperadoes. They are well-armed, and each of them is tall and powerful. Perhaps when passing by, they saw Lin Yuan’s Zhuangzi and started to make evidence. With their own minds, they don't have a siege device, so they can only stay near Zhuangzi temporarily, waiting like snakes for their prey to reveal their flaws.

Perhaps because of the vine armor, perhaps because of other reasons, the deaths and injuries this time were not as tragic as Lin Yuan thought. Although nearly 20 people were killed and a dozen severely wounded, the rest were large and small. Minor injuries.

But none of the bandits survived.

Before, he accepted the bandits of the three sons because they were located at the bottom of the stockade. In other words, they weren't really big evildoers. They just wanted to eat a lot of food, who would have food, They followed them. Such a person was easy to subdue, and Lin Yuan would accept it. As for the obedience and sense of belonging, this can only be slowly cultivated in front of them.

But these bandits are not.

Their butcher knife can be pointed at anyone.

Lin Yuan couldn't gamble.

With such a big Zhuangzi behind him, with so many people in the Zhuangzi, he lost the bet and he could not afford the consequences.

Nearly twenty people who died, Lin Yuan asked people to prepare simple coffins for them overnight, and buried them not far from Zhuangzi. The seriously injured were moved indoors and asked the women with the lightest hands and feet to take care of them. The injury is simple, just ask them to change the medicine on time.

Li Congrong and Zhu Yuanzhang were also seriously injured. Fortunately, there are some medicinal materials that I bought from Jiang Guang. There are several kinds of medicines that can stop the bleeding, and they are still very effective. After two days, the wound turned pink. Bleeding again, and no purulent infection.

Lin Yuan has always paid great attention to the hygiene of the ward.

All patients’ clothes are sterilized by boiling water, and the people who take care of the wounded are all women who clean themselves up.

Although there were not many medicines taken orally, Lin Yuan was so generous that he gave them meat porridge almost immediately.

Some people even think that it would not be a bad thing to live in the ward all the time.

Of course... when they have to solve the three problems, it is the men who help.

Chen Banxian and the others naturally knew what had happened. When they were fighting outside, they hid in the alchemy room and shivered. After the incident, they gathered together and discovered the importance of the fryer for the first time.

If it is really like what the owner said, they can prepare the prescription and put beads in it. In the face of such conflicts and attacks, they will lose a lot less people.

After getting the things Li Congrong and the others brought back, Chen Banxian and the others developed an unprecedented enthusiasm for work. They were bored in the alchemy room almost all day long. They did not even make fake jade, and they only went to the cafeteria to eat. Fight, and then return to the alchemy room to continue trying.

Lin Yuan also went to see it once and found that their method of adjusting the formula was actually quite scientific.

Because there is no accurate measuring tool, they use small wooden spoons. The size of these small wooden spoons is very consistent, and the error is not too big. They will put them little by little, and the person next to them will record it.

When they felt it was almost done, they took the small stove outside, sealed it, and lit the lead rope on fire.

It's a pity that most of them just caught fire, but they didn't explode.

Lin Yuan stayed with them all day and found that they were eating steamed buns in their mouths and doing things on their hands, which seemed a little bit of a waste of sleep and food. If they thought of something in the middle of the night, they rushed to the alchemy room to continue making them.

This group of people was thinning at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But their efforts are fruitful.

On a clear blue sky, Lin Yuan received the biggest good news in the past three years——

Explosives|The medicine was taken out.

Although simple and not very lethal, it can explode and deter the enemy. To some extent, it is probably not enough as a weapon, but as a deterrent tool, its symbolic meaning is greater than practical. value.

Just like in the animal kingdom, many animals yell at each other before they fight to scare away the enemy.

In fact, the same is true for people, but what people fear is different from what animals fear.

Chen Banxian was also a little proud: "We have thought about the method you mentioned. You see, this bag is made of beads."

These beads were made by Wu Sansi. He was very comfortable with ironing. It was not a difficult task to make beads of the same size.

In order to test the usefulness of this beaded explosive, Lin Yuan decided to sacrifice one of the simplest sheds, and then set the fire to throw the explosive into it.

Only a loud noise was heard, and the top of the shed was blown up, but in a flash, a fire started to burn.

However, the fire was not too big, and Lin Yuan walked in to look after the fire was put out.

Many beads are embedded in the wall. Although this shed is simple, the wall is still very strong. If this is a human body, these beads will be in their body even if they cannot be penetrated.

The presence of beads will increase the attack range and lethality of earth explosives.

Lin Yuan was overjoyed, and as soon as he turned around, he hugged Chen Banxian, the bad old man, and patted his shoulder with excitement, "Half a fairy! You have done a great job!"

Chen Banxian himself was a little dazed, he really didn't expect the beads to be so powerful.

"My boss..." Chen Banxian swallowed, "That...is really the gunpowder between me and you?"

Lin Yuan nodded fiercely: "Yes! Half a fairy, you are really amazing!"

Chen Banxian was boasted and finally got excited. Only now did he return to the ground from the sky, and his feet finally fell on the ground.

There were also many onlookers.

They are chatting and discussing.

"Good fellow! Such a loud noise! ​​I thought it was Lord Dragon sneezing!"

"You didn't see that the roof was blown up!"

"It's still on fire!"

"This is really amazing."

"If anyone is still guarding outside our Zhuangzi in the future, we will drop a few packets of this to scare them to death."

"Yes!"

Lin Yuan was in a good mood and waved his big hand. Today, everyone can taste meat again.

Although it's just broth, it's a supreme enjoyment to get some minced meat occasionally.

Regarding these gunpowders, Lin Yuan felt that these half-immortals alone would not be able to keep up with production. If they are so old and work harder, he is afraid that they will have their braids that day, but they are all made of gold. The talents that are not necessarily exchangeable must be protected.

So Lin Yuan asked Wu Yuelian to take a few women who were not pregnant to apprentice.

Of course, Chen Banxian and the others would not, who would adopt a female apprentice? What's more, it's not about worshipping the Taoist school, but to recognize him alone as a master, and I don't know how Wu Yuelian did it. Anyway, after grinding, Chen Banxian and the others began to teach reluctantly.

Lin Yuan asked women to go there for a reason.

Now that the number of men is nearly twenty, he must find a way to supplement.

Moreover, men have to farm and train, and they really can’t get people to learn how to make gunpowder.

Wu Yuelian and the others are different. They don't have that much work, and they don't need to go out to fight. The logistics of making gun|powder is just right, and women always have to be more careful, and the possibility of making mistakes will be reduced.

After the division of labor was clear, Lin Yuan asked Li Congrong, Jiang Gui, and Zhu Yuanzhang to discuss recruitment.

In fact, if you recruit people in winter, you can consume less food, but now Lin Yuan can't wait for winter, so he can only find a way now.

"Where was the merchant last time?" Jiang Gui asked, "He can naturally buy people."

Lin Yuan: "I don't know where his house lives."

There is nowhere to find it.

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "How about I take someone out again?"

Lin Yuan shook his head: "You still have to cultivate for a period of time. If you have such a serious injury, don't make it more troublesome."

Zhu Yuanzhang touched his waist. There was a stab wound. Fortunately, it was treated in time. Now it has begun to scab, and it is estimated that it will heal soon.

"When Jiang Guang brings the horse over, I tell him to find someone for me." Lin Yuan said, "If he doesn't come, we have to go out and find someone by ourselves."

Jiang Gui suddenly said, "Why don't you tell me to go out?"

Several people looked at Jiang Gui.

Jiang Gui smiled and said, "You can still play as a trader. Not to mention buying people, it's faster to get news than you."

"That's a good idea."

"It needs to be detailed."

Lin Yuan listened to their discussion, and he needed a lot of people. Their granary was full and they opened up all the wasteland that could be opened nearby. The harvest this autumn will be larger than in previous years.

Lin Yuan planned to accept another five hundred people to come in, and wait until winter to accept another five hundred people.

Although a thousand people may not seem like a lot, in fact, the armaments of each town are actually very small now. With a thousand people, they can even fight a small town.

Lin Yuan is now waiting for Yang Zian to come back. If he can bring Zhang Shicheng and his brothers, he can take the next move.

Hit Xinghua down.

There are salt fields in Xinghua.

But you have to wait for the Red Scarf to raise the flag.

Most of the imperial court's forces will be directed at the Red Scarf Army.

Then he can hold Xinghua.

Zhang Shicheng...

Lin Yuan thinks it’s hard to say right now. Zhang Shicheng is actually a very ordinary person. He has some talents and a little kindness, but at the same time he also has the problems of ordinary people. After success, he is arrogant and self-reliant. On the one hand, he follows the Yuan Dynasty. In order to deliver food to Emperor Yuanshun, he also asked the court to recognize his status as a King of Honesty.

However, the earlier Zhang Shicheng had a little leadership ability, and he would not be afraid of power to stand up for his brothers.

Will also pity the weak.

Robbing the rich and helping the poor, I want more people to survive.

But when the power in his hands became greater and more people followed him, and no one sang the opposite, the whole person swelled.

Most of the leaders of the uprising will go through this stage, but some people are suppressed, some people really inflate.

Lin Yuan didn't doubt Zhang Shicheng's original intention. What he wanted at the beginning was not power. At the bottom, what he wanted was about living a life with food, clothing, clothing and dignity without being beaten, but when power became stronger and stronger , Desire|hope is increasing.

Lin Yuan didn't know if he would become like that one day.

I just hope that if that day, someone around him can wake him up.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Leaders at the bottom of the uprising are particularly prone to swelling. Many of them will become kings if their heels are not stable. Then there will be a Sannomiya and Sixth Court, and the Queen Mother will be sealed, and the ministers will be sealed. This has not succeeded.
