Back to the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 370: Dream and reality
Zhang Fei yelled: "One hundred taels of silver! It is more than twice as expensive as the latest stone cannon car, and it is not as powerful as it is. What is the use of making this kind of thing!"
Tiecheng looked embarrassed.
Chen Lang patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder and smiled: "Although the artillery is not very powerful now, I absolutely believe that it will become the key to determining the battlefield in the future!" Zhang Fei shook his head in disbelief. , Then asked curiously: "Why does that black pipe emit flames and make a loud noise?"
Tie Cheng couldn't help but glanced at Chen Lang, and said to Zhang Fei: "This is a black powder made with the formula provided by the lord. This powder can burn violently and produce great power! This power is vented out of the nozzle at one time. , There was a huge flame and noise." Zhang Fei still didn't quite understand, but didn't want to understand, and said to Chen Lang: "Brother, this cannon is useless, but this kind of powder can be used to launch fire attacks!"
Chen Lang smiled and said, "This is called gunpowder, not powder." Then he asked Tie Chengdao: "What is the output of gunpowder now?"
Tiecheng clasped his fist and said: "Return to the lord, according to the current production scale, about 200 catties of gunpowder can be produced in one month."
Chen Lang frowned, this number was much lower than he expected, and asked, "Why is the output so low?"
Tie stereotyped Chen Lang's seemingly dissatisfied appearance, and he became nervous and quickly explained: "Return to the lord, the output of saltpeter and sulphur used in gunpowder is too low, plus these are the medicinal materials needed by pharmacies, so we can get even more So we can only make these gunpowder in one month. And this has caused the saltpeter and sulfur in pharmacies in Luoyang and surrounding areas to almost be out of stock."
Zhang Fei said in an unpleasant manner: "A few hundred catties of gunpowder can't do much."
Chen Lang thought for a moment and asked Tie Chengdao: "Can't the output of saltpeter sulfur be increased?" Tiecheng said with a look of embarrassment: "The merchants that produce saltpeter sulfur are already doing their best to produce, and it might be difficult to increase the output. "
Chen Lang paced back and forth, frowning slightly. He originally thought that by making this kind of cross-age gunpowder, he could fully control the initiative in war. But I didn't expect to encounter the lowest level problem of production capacity. However, it is no wonder that with the industrial level of this era still in a primitive state, there is nothing strange about this output. It seems that the top priority is not to get some artillery from a distance, but to find a way to increase the output of saltpeter and sulfur. Only with enough gunpowder can gunpowder weapons be useful.
Chen Lang stopped and said to Tiecheng, "I will figure out a solution for the problem of productivity. Just continue to study gunpowder weapons." Tiecheng clasped his fists and promised.
Later that day, Chen Lang returned to Luoyang City. He didn't return to the General's Mansion, but went directly to Luoyang Administrative Office. Jia Xu Chen Gong heard that Chen Lang was coming, so he hurried out to welcome him, and when he saw Chen Lang, he saluted: "Master!"
Chen Lang smiled, and walked along the bluestone road next to the hall, followed by Jia Xu Chen Gong.
Chen Lang asked: "Are there any problems with the recent internal and military affairs?"
Chen Gong clasped his fist and said: "Everything is going well in internal affairs, and the construction situation in various places is very gratifying."
Chen Lang said: "Recently, many officials related to Rulin have been replaced. There is no response from Rulin."
Chen Gong smiled and said: "The scholars are naturally complaining! But it's nothing else! But..." Chen Lang looked at Chen Gong, and saw that he was hesitant to speak, and smiled: "Gong When did Taiwan become so scrupulous? Let's be honest!"
Chen Gong clasped his fists to promise, and then frowned: "Although the scholars did not dare to cause anything, these people slandered the lord in private! They compared the lord to Qin Shihuang, and compared many of the lord’s current policies to the book burning pit of Qin Shihuang back then. Confucianism!" Jia Xu said: "We were still discussing whether to report the matter to the lord, whether to deal with these guys who dare to disrespect the lord!" Chen Gong nodded and looked at Chen Lang.
Chen Lang stopped and said with a smile: "Let them say what they want to say. As long as they don't spread rumors and cause trouble. Only trash is afraid of what others say." Jia Xu Chen Gong couldn't help laughing.
Chen Lang turned to look at the blue sky in the distance, and smiled: "Say I am Qin Shihuang? I dare not be! People say that Qin Shihuang is a great tyrant, but in my opinion, there is no emperor comparable to Qin Shihuang. A few. Confucian scholars kept slandering him, but it was because Qin Shihuang had offended Confucian scholars by burning books and confessing Confucian scholars. Therefore, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ousted a hundred schools of Confucian scholars and became a literati class, they began to pour sewage on Qin Shihuang. What he said, what Qin Shihuang had to say when he burned books to pit Confucianism was wrong because he didn't burn them cleanly and didn't kill them thoroughly! This made Confucianism begin to harm China!"

Chen Gong smiled: "The Lord's words are really shocking!" Jia Xu smiled: "If the Lord's words were heard by those scholars, what kind of face would it look like?" Chen Gong laughed and said: " I'm afraid I'm going to make my **** and urine flow!" Chen Lang and Jia Xu couldn't help laughing.
Chen Gong asked worriedly: "The lord doesn't really want to imitate Qin Shihuang's book burning and confucianism, right?"
Chen Lang frowned and said, "I'm thinking about this. Burning books and banning Confucianism is fine. But if I just kill them all, I can't do it!" He smiled and said to the two of them: "So I am still a little bit behind Qin Shihuang. ."
The two looked at each other and smiled and clasped their fists together and said: "The lord is too modest!" Then Chen Gong clasped his fists and said: "The lord must burn books and ban Confucianism and it must not be now."
Chen Lang nodded and said, "I know this naturally."
That night, Chen Lang returned home. A person came to the study room. Just sitting down, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him!
When Chen Lang reacted, the man had already hung on Chen Lang's neck and shouted coquettishly: "Daddy!" It turned out that the man who suddenly leaped behind was not someone else, but was Chen Lang's adopted daughter Xiangxiang. Chen Lang laughed, and his thoughts were immediately dissipated by a cheerful mood. He held Xiangxiang in his arms backhand, took the scum to pierce Xiangxiang's face, Xiangxiang giggled, and kept yelling: "Daddy is necrotic! Itchy! Itchy! Cuckold..."
At this time, footsteps came from behind. Chen Lang raised his head and saw Dong Yuan and Diao Chan walking out from behind the screen, one in leather armor and ponytails, heroic, and the other in a narrow-waisted long skirt, graceful and charming.
Chen Lang's heart trembled, and his index finger moved violently. Asked with a smile: "Aren't you going back a few days?"
Dong Yuan said in an unpleasant manner: "Aren't you happy to see us coming back? Humph, Xiangxiang Xiang always wants to go home!"
Xiangxiang said loudly: "I'm not the only one who misses daddy, don't Sister Dong Yuan and Sister Diao Chan also miss daddy? Sister Zhang Huan also said that Sister Dong Yuan only thinks about daddy, and she doesn't have her mother in her heart!" Yuan Xiafei's cheeks immediately stared and said, "Little guy, don't talk nonsense!" Xiang Xiang pouted, a cute look unconvinced.
Chen Lang smiled and said to Dong Yuan: "Why are you ashamed! Isn't it normal for my wife to think that her husband?"
Dong Yuan had a blushing face and snorted: "Who missed you!" Seeing Chen Lang looking at herself with a smile, she couldn't help but snorted and turned her head away.
Chen Lang couldn't help but turn his gaze to Diao Chan's face, and his tenderness and sweetness were silent under his eyes. Seeing Diao Chan's gentle expression, Chen Lang couldn't help but smile, and threw a kiss at her. Diao Chan looked at Chen Lang with watery eyes.
Dong Yuan saw the expressions of the two of them in her eyes, jealous, and said angrily: "It's not night yet, you two are eye-catching!" Diao Chan smiled and hugged Dong Yuan's arm and said: "Sister, it's the husband who teased me, but it's not my fault!" Dong Yuan immediately looked at Chen Lang and snorted badly. Chen Lang laughed and patted his cheek. Seeing Diao Chan's infinitely charming appearance, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: Diao Chan's charm is not only unstoppable by men, but it seems that even women can't resist it! What an alluring vixen!
At this point, Chen Lang couldn't help but think of the lingering scene of the two of them, and couldn't help but boil the blood of the beast, staring at Diao Chan with fiery eyes. Diao Chan seemed to see Chen Lang's thoughts, her delicate face couldn't help turning red, spring waves in her beautiful eyes, amorous feelings! Chen Lang could hardly control himself. Had Xiangxiang not been there, he would have rushed forward and held Diao Chan under him and galloped freely!
...
In the dead of night, Chen Lang's bedroom was dimly lit and dimly lit. Chen Lang was half drunk and half awake leaning on the shore drinking glass after glass. In front of him, under the dim lights, Diao Chan danced lightly in a veil, her black hair reflected her white jade skin, her slender legs loomed under her skirt, her slender waist looked like a willow, and the mountains trembled. At this time, Diao Chan has completely lost the dignified and skilful appearance of the time before, and the charming state is full of charm, and there are many kinds of amorous feelings when looking back, and the singing voice is thrilling!
Chen Lang admired Diao Chan's singing and dancing while drinking. He didn't know how much he had already drunk. It's really not intoxicating that people get drunk!
Diao Chan danced softly, turned her back, and turned her glamorous face to Chen Lang. Immediately, she saw her light gauze dress slowly slipping down from her round fragrant shoulders, revealing her beautifully curvy figure! Chen Lang only felt a shock in his heart and couldn't help but his eyes widened. Although Diao Chan was his wife for a long time, she still made him feel jinyan from time to time.
Diao Chan smiled slightly, Chen Lang immediately felt that all the brilliance between the world and the earth had disappeared, except for Diao Chan's beautiful face. Chen Lang couldn't help standing up, and stepped forward to try to hold Diao Chan. Diao Chan smiled charmingly and ran towards the bed behind the screen. Chen Lang moved his index finger and hurriedly chased him.
