Song Xiance took the letter written by Chongzhen and wanted to say goodbye.

Chongzhen hurriedly called out and said, "Mr. Song is not busy leaving. I have another suggestion, and I want you to tell the King of Chuang."

Song Xiance has now become the special envoy to communicate with Chongzhen and Li Zicheng. Although Li Zicheng and Chongzhen called each other brothers while drinking, the grudge between the two was hidden in their hearts, so naturally there was no need to face each other again. So Song Xiance became a phony tube.

Chongzhen smiled and said, "That's right. I have been thinking about the past two days that the Qing soldiers are brave, and my Guanning Iron Cavalry can be said to have no victory in the field. It is probably not easy for Brother Chuang Wang to defeat the Qing soldiers. The director of the Qing soldiers is a cavalry breaking out, and I am afraid that Brother Chuang Wang Wang's infantry will not be able to resist the enemy. Just a few days ago, the Hanlin Prosecutor Fang Yizhi mentioned to me that he was preparing to build a thunder grenade, which is a powerful weapon to deal with the cavalry. After hearing the principle he mentioned, it seems very feasible. The pattern he draws is still with Wang Chengen. If this thunder grenade really works, before the Qing cavalry approaches, he can blow him up and overturn him. Isn't the chance of winning? I think that if this firearm is ready, I can really restrain the cavalry of the Tartars, so I suggest that Fang Yizhi be reused."

This Fang Yizhi, has a family background, and is well-versed in the East and West. In the 13th year of Chongzhen, he studied literature, history, philosophy, land, medicine, physics, and everything. He was ranked as the "Four Young Masters of the Ming Dynasty". He wrote "Small Knowledge of Physics", also conducted small hole imaging tests, and was also loyal to the Ming Dynasty. So Chongzhen and Wang Chengen took this person as the first candidate for the substitute. Think about the nuclear proliferation expert in Pakistan in later generations, Kadir Khan, said

Maybe it's just a substitute launched by the "Disperity" world, most of which are spread by orders! As for "technology" to restrain "power", Gong Daming naturally had a deep understanding. In the later generations, the power-based teams once relied on "reasonable collision", but in the end, the technology gained the upper hand. If you have strength and height, so what! Let's play the next three ways, cooperate on the ground, short triangular passes, and hit you behind you. It would be strange if you don't play to death!

When Song Xiance heard Chongzhen be so enthusiastic, he quickly replied: "Thank you Your Majesty for your concern! Your Majesty is also the concern of the King of Breaking. The Qing soldiers are barbaric and skilled in cavalry and shooting. Most of our infantry are in danger, so they will inevitably suffer losses in confrontation! If there are good firearms that can defeat the enemy, it is impossible to get it. I wonder if Fang Yizhi can really create such a powerful weapon to defeat the enemy?" Song Xiance has seen many firearms, and the Ming army has many rocket-like firearms, but when it comes to power, they are really not as effective as bows and arrows. Therefore, there is little hope for Chongzhen's thunder grenade that praises Fang Yizhi.

Chongzhen could not expect that he would sell it himself, and in the eyes of others, he would be regarded as a selling parallel product. It seems that the effect of the firearms in the late Ming Dynasty was really not very good. Speaking of the firearms in the Ming Dynasty, the technology was not very good. In addition, the layers of corrupt officials were working hard and cutting corners, the bird guns and muskets frequently exploded, and the quality of gunpowder was uneven. It was common for the rockets in the Ming Dynasty to not fire. As for the rockets in the Ming Dynasty, there was no aerodynamic shape design, so they often meant the east and the west. In terms of strike accuracy, it was far different from bows and arrows.

Chongzhen had to make a guarantee by himself and said, "Don't worry, Lord Song, this Fang Yizhi is a little stubborn, but he will never exaggerate his words. I know this. I originally planned to raise some money to assign him to get this thunder grenade as soon as possible. I know that the reason why the firearm is not good is that the existing firearm is inconvenient to use, and the other half is that the guys from the Military Bureau are greedy, which leads to cutting corners on the firearms and being unbearable to use when they go to the battlefield. However, if this Fang Yizhi is used to supervise, I dare to guarantee that I will be able to make excellent firearms. But I really couldn't get the money later, so I gave up. If the King of Chuang could squeeze out 100,000 taels of silver, my firearms would definitely live up to expectations."

"The King of Chuang has always attached great importance to firearms. The official will report to the King of Chuang now, and it is recommended to use this Fang Yizhi." When Song Xiance saw Chongzhen's seriousness, he thought that this Fang Yizhi would have some skills, so he made up his mind to report to the King of Chuang.

Chongzhen thought to himself, the Chuangjun attaches importance to firearms, and is afraid that it is at that level! When he was besieging Kaifeng to bomb the city wall with black gunpowder, he made a joke. The Chuangjun opened a big hole in the city wall and filled a lot of gunpowder, but he didn't know how to use soil to seal it tightly. After igniting, there was no explosion. Huge flames gushed out. That spectacular scene was equivalent to the resurrection of a small volcano, and it seemed to ignite a super-large firework! What's ridiculous is

After the "volcano" erupts, the city walls remain unmoved. It is important to know that black gunpowder is "explosion", unlike explosives, which are "explosion". "explosion" is caused by rapid combustion to cause gas expansion and cause internal and external pressure imbalance to explode. In other words, if you want to explode, you have to put it in a closed container. When the accumulated pressure of the gas generated by the black gunpowder is higher than the container's bearing capacity, the explosion can only occur. If it is like Li Zicheng exploded Kaifeng, you can only see an oversized firework.

"I am worried that Fang Yizhi's mind is rigid and unwilling to cooperate. If he refuses to listen to the call, he might as well let Wang Chengen persuade him and let Wang Chengen convince him." Since ancient times, he may not be willing to cherish it. If he takes a stand, he will not be a talent and will look like a talent! What's more, Fang Yizhi is indeed a talent, and what's even more amazing is that his assistant Wang Chengen is even more amazing than him! Chongzhen himself is not convenient to see Fang Yizhi, and Li Zicheng is guarding against himself to secretly communicate with the Ming Dynasty ministers! Then let Wang Chengen and his substitute communicate with him.

Wang Chengen is quite proud of Fang Yizhi, a big-name stand-in. This guy is a big shot! Such a big shot is a stand-in for himself, it’s great! Think about what it would feel if Bruce Lee was a stand-in for Jet Li!

Fang Yizhi was in the study that day, strolling and thinking. "Physical Knowledge" was already writing, and there were many things to consider in the middle of the writing. At this moment, he was thinking about how to describe the nature of light. He only saw the maid report: "Master, a guest came to visit and said he wanted to see the master."

Fang Yizhi went to the front hall and saw a middle-aged man standing there with a family member waiting respectfully. When the man saw Fang Yizhi, he immediately bowed: "The Lord Fang Yizhi must be Lord Fang!"

"It's right here, what do you think of me?" Fang Yizhi came from a famous family. His father was the governor of Huguang. Fang Yizhi was proud, but his etiquette was very comprehensive.

"How dare you? Lord Fang, my master, Prince Wang Chengen, asked me to send you a letter. This is a letter. Please tell me to send me a letter. If the Lord does not give me instructions, I will say goodbye!" After that, he said goodbye and left.

The incident of Wang Chengen accompanying Chongzhen to hang himself and then going down the mountain has been circulating in Beijing, and the rumors of abdication are even more circumscribed. Fang Yizhi reads the books of sages and his thoughts are deeply rooted in the bones. Fang Yizhi never believed the abdication of Chongzhen, but he was just a Hanlin review and it is possible to write books. If he had to say that he had turned the tide, he had not been looking forward to it, but he could not do anything to a scholar!

Fang Yizhi opened the letter, but only saw a few lines:

Lord Fang Junjian:

Today, the Dashun Army must call on the Lord to make firearms for him. The Lord only needs to answer that he is still a minister of Emperor Chongzhen, and everything must be met with Emperor Chongzhen before he can obey his orders.

Wang Cheng'en worships you!

Fang Yizhi was originally a very smart person. When he saw this letter, he felt that he was stupid at first, but then he must have something to do with the emperor. It is unknown whether he could contribute to the emperor trapped in the palace. But it is not enough to help him and go through fire and water. How could he be willing to die? Therefore, he established his purpose. If Li Zicheng's people really summoned him, he would like to ask Emperor Chongzhen as stated in the letter.

Sure enough, Dashun officials came to the door, and a colleague from the Hanlin Academy who knew Fang Yizhi was with him. After confirming that his identity was correct, he invited Fang Yizhi out of the house amid a polite etiquette.

When he arrived at Song Xiance's office, Song Xiance was so busy that he was filled with smoke. The ceremony of abdication and ascension was not a joke. He went there to prepare for things. Li Yan followed him and found several former officials of the Ministry of Rites to come to Xiangzan, but he was still so busy that he was not touching the ground. When he reported to Mr. Fang to invite him, Song Xiance and Li Yan quickly greeted him: "Mr. Fang, please sit down! The official Song Xiance is polite!" He gestured in his eyes, except for Li Yan, the others retreated one after another.

"You are polite, Lord Song! I wonder what instructions are you asking for?" Fang Yizhi said in a heart. Fortunately, someone revealed this matter in advance, otherwise he would not have followed him so readily. Maybe he would have refused at home in a few words.

"Sir Fang, please sit down! Look at the tea! That's right. The officials should have come to visit the door, but you have seen him, so you are too busy, so you are neglecting Lord Fang." Song Xiance originally planned to invite Fang Yizhi himself, but as soon as he came back, he gathered a bunch of people to ask for instructions on abdication and ascending the throne, so he had to give up.

"That's right, Emperor Chongzhen recommended Lord Fang, saying that Lord Fang could make a firearm called Pili Grenade, which was very powerful. After the report from the King of Chuang, King of Chuang was very eager and wanted to ask Lord Fang to preside over the production of Pili Grenade for my Dashun. It happened that Dashun was preparing to build the Military Weapon Bureau, and I also wanted to ask Lord Fang to participate in the construction. I wonder what Lord Fang wanted?" Song Xiance met many old Ming ministers these days, and looked at the official position of Dashun, and looked forward to the official position of Dashun. The spirit of desperately rushing to camp was despised. Therefore, he did not take Chongzhen's advice to heart. Even though Fang Yizhi was not as simple as other Ming Dynasty officials.

I am afraid that the Dashun Dynasty would not be able to rank, and at most it would be a little arrogant. Dashun is now in its prestige and prestige is in its infancy. With the rumors of abdication, almost all the officials of the Ming Dynasty flocked to him. Because those officials of the third rank and above were all on the list of recovering stolen money, they were both very upset to miss the opportunity to be loyal to Dashun. Song Xiance would not know that after Chongzhen hanged himself in history, Fang Yizhi cried bitterly in front of the Chongzhen spirit and was captured by the Dashun army. The Dashun army tortured him severely, "two condyles were seen", but this hard-bodied Lord Fang never refused to surrender. Therefore, although this corrupt loyal minister in the world is scarce, it is not unique.

Fang Yizhi heard this and said proudly: "Thank you Lord Song for his kindness! He is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and is loyal to the Ming Dynasty. He must do things at the bottom. Unless the Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty issued an order, he will be unable to obey his orders!"

When Song Xiance heard this man, he was really stupid. It seemed that this matter was a bit big. He quickly explained:

"It was originally recommended by Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty. It was because the Emperor Ming Dynasty recommended that we knew that Lord Fang was very talented." If you want to say you don't believe it, you will ask Chongzhen, but you vaguely feel that it is inappropriate. I wonder if King Chuang would agree to Chongzhen meeting his ministers.

Li Yan looked a little stiff on the side, so he persuaded him:

"Mr. Fang, Li Yan, I have met Master Fang! I believe Mr. Fang has also heard that Emperor Chongzhen has already said that his Majesty Chongzhen has abdicated and abdicated in the King of Chuang. The ceremony of abdication will be within ten days. Lord Fang was originally recommended by His Majesty Chongzhen, and Dashun inherited the Ming Dynasty and did not rebel against the Ming Dynasty. Besides, the firearm was to fight against the Tartars and pacify the Liaojiang. His Majesty Chongzhen said that no one is divided into old and young, no one is divided into north and south. All people in China have the responsibility to defend their territory and fight against the war. The official said that Lord Fang always puts patriotism first, so how can he give up this opportunity to serve the country and conquer the barbarians! The King of Chuangzhen is a virtuous and nobleman, and even the officials can be proud of their positions. Lord Fang is of high talent and can bear greater responsibilities for the country. Please think twice!"

"Mr. Li doesn't have to say too much. Is the emperor willing to abdicate? It's just a rumor! If I can't see the emperor, I can't believe it easily. If I can see the emperor and hear what the emperor said in person, I dare to be ordered." Fang Yizhi was just thinking of meeting Chongzhen, otherwise he would have left.

Song Xiance then remembered Chongzhen's instructions. It seemed that Fang Yizhi was a loyal minister, otherwise he would not have been chosen by Chongzhen as the lecturer of Prince Ding and King Yong. Song Xiance thought that if he did not recommend Fang Yizhi in front of King Chuang, there would be nothing to do. But after the recommendation, the matter was not done. King Chuang is now surrounded by a hymn. Who knows if Thunder will be angry, and he regrets it too much. But now that he has recommended it, there is no way out. After hesitating for a while, he finally made up his mind and winked at Li Yan, saying:

"Lin Quan, why not do this. You arrange for the Prince Wang Chengen to meet with Lord Fang and explain. As for His Majesty Chongzhen, according to the wishes of the minister, please do not disturb him first. Should the Prince Wang come to His Majesty Chongzhen to receive a sage edict? Lin Quan, please do it!" It means that when Chongzhen is inappropriate, Wang Chengen can use this gun at will.

What Wang Chengen wanted was to see Fang Yizhi legitimately. Fang Yizhi was originally the substitute he chose, and there was nothing Chongzhen had to do. But now he was being monitored every day and colluded with Fang Yizhi in private. Not only could he not do anything, but he might even get in his own head.

Fang Yizhixin said that seeing Wang Chengen could also relieve his doubts. The emperor is not so easy to see now in a confinement! So he replied: "Eunuch Wang is the one the emperor trusts, so what the prince says."

Song and Li both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. If this guy was stubborn and wanted to see Chongzhen, it would be difficult to arrange.
