Outside the main tent, Zhu Neng and Zhang Cheng looked at each other.
In the main tent, there were only Xu Da and Zhu Rong.
Xu Da stared at Zhu Rong and said loudly,"
"Good boy! I was wondering why you didn't even blink when you exchanged this thing with me!”
"So, you asked His Highness the Crown Prince to specially give you a thousand early?!”
That's right, this was what Zhu Xiong had told Zhu Biao when he went to the Eastern Palace to look for him.
He said that he did not want the reward for developing the flintlock gun!
However, he needed to make 1,000 short-barreled flintlocks for Zhu Rong first!
The materials used for this short-barreled flintlock were much simpler than those used for cavalry and infantry flintlocks, and the manufacturing process was also much simpler.
Usually, in the time it took to make a cavalry or infantry flintlock, at least two short-barrelled flintlocks could be made.
Therefore, Zhu Rong's request was not too much!
Crown Prince Zhu Biao agreed immediately. After all, this was something that was created by others. Why couldn't he let others use it?
Therefore, the secret letter that the quartermaster Qian had given Xu Da stated that apart from the 500 cavalry flintlocks and the 500 infantry flintlocks, there were only 500 cavalry flintlocks.
There were also 1,000 short-barreled flintlocks, all of which were to be handed over to Zhu Xiong!
Xu Da looked at the "1,000" number and really wished that he could keep it for himself.
However, he couldn't because the Crown Prince had issued a decree!
However, it was not impossible to call Zhu Rong over to complain, right?
Of course, Zhu Rong knew what Xu Da meant.
Therefore, Zhu Rong said directly,"
"Uncle Xu, how about this? Each of my guerillas will have one of those 1,000 guns, and the rest will be handed over to Uncle Xu.”
Hearing this, Xu Da immediately beamed with joy!
"However," Zhu Xiong changed the topic and said,"I'm not sure.
"Uncle Xu wants to return the one I gave you before!”
When Xu Da heard this, the smile on his face instantly disappeared. A hint of vigilance appeared in his eyes. Then, he immediately asked,
"Why?"
Zhu Xiong smiled and said,"
"It's nothing. It's just that this gun was made by me after all. It has a sentimental meaning. Besides, Uncle Xu, now that the new gun has been sent over, why do you still want this old one?”
What Zhu Rong said was right. The gun in Xu Da's hand was indeed a memorial to Zhu Rong.
After all, he had made it himself.
Most importantly, the word "Jin" was engraved on the barrel!
However, Xu Da leaned back slightly.
It seemed that because of Zhu Rong, he kept it a secret from himself. He deliberately said as if he wanted to find trouble with Zhu Rong,
"How can that do? Was there any reason to ask for something back when you gave it away?”
Then, Xu Da picked up his cup and casually took a sip of tea.
He looked at Zhu Rong with interest.
The look in his eyes seemed to be saying,""Beg me!"
Zhu Xiong immediately understood Xu Da's intention, but would Zhu Xiong beg Xu Da at this time?
Instead, he raised his head slightly and looked at Xu Da.
"Uncle Xu, do you still want those hundreds of short-barreled flintlocks?”
Xu Da was speechless.
"Good boy! How dare you threaten me?"
The corner of Zhu Rong's mouth slightly twitched. He cupped his fists and said,"
"I don't dare to bid!"
"Since Great General has nothing else to say, I will take my leave now!”
As he spoke, he really wanted to walk out.
"Wait!" This time, Xu Da was really anxious!
That's right. The secret letter from the Crown Prince clearly stated that the third brother, Zhu Rong, was in charge of these 1,000 short-barreled flintlocks.
You can only take it if the other party agrees to give it to you.
If he didn't agree and you wanted to take it, it would be equivalent to defying the imperial edict!
Xu Da was still able to distinguish which was more important!
"Here, here, here! Take it, I don't care!”
As he spoke, he took out the short-barreled flintlock that Zhu Xiong had given him from his belt and slammed it on the table.
With a smile on his face, Zhu Rong took a step forward. Under Xu Da's envious gaze, he put away the flintlock gun with the word "Jin" engraved on it.
Then, he said,"Let's go, Uncle Xu. Bring me to see our guns!"”
The expression on Xu Da's face was definitely ugly.
That's right. Xu Da felt that he had been schemed against from the beginning.
After the scheme, he wanted to make Zhu Rong suffer, but in the end, he was killed instantly!
Could he feel comfortable?
However, when he thought that he would soon have hundreds of short-barreled flintlocks, the fire of happiness in his heart rose again.
Not too long later.
Zhu Neng and Zhang Cheng each took a loaded carriage, while Zhu Xiong rode on a horse and followed behind Zhu Neng and Zhang Cheng.
Zhu Rong's eyes were flashing with excitement.
As for Zhu Neng and Zhang Cheng, their eyes were still filled with doubt.
When they returned to the first depression five miles away.
The members of the Gobi guerilla squad had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as Zhu Xiong arrived, he shouted,"
"Everyone, take out all the precious stones you want and throw them away. Everyone, come to the front and get a new treasure!”
New treasure?
Everyone was puzzled, but they still threw the stones out and lined up in small teams. One by one, they went forward to receive their short-barreled flintlocks.
Zhu Neng and Zhang Cheng took up the task of distributing.
Soon, the entire guerrilla team, from top to bottom, looked at the object in their hands with a dumbfounded expression.
Zhang Cheng was the first to speak out of curiosity.
"General, what is this? It looked like a flintlock, but it was too small. Moreover, it seemed to be missing a lot of parts!”
Zhang Cheng asked a question, and naturally, there were others who echoed,"Yes, General. Is this really a treasure?”
Looking at the confused expressions on everyone's faces, the corners of Zhu Rong's mouth curled up slightly. He pulled out the flintlock from his waist and raised his hand to the right.
"Bang!" A loud sound echoed in the sky above the depression!
