Gao Jichong looked ferocious, and the barrier knife inserted under Li Chuyun's ribs twisted hard. Immediately, a large stream of blood splashed out from Li Chuyun's mouth, and then he lay straight on the ground.

Not to mention Li Chuyun, even the Red Turban people did not expect Gao Jichong to suddenly attack. Seeing this, Xu Lang immediately led his people to surround Gao Ji, waiting for Xu Xian to kill him with an order.

Gao Jichong threw away the obstacle knife and bowed to Xu Xian, "Thank you, Grandmaster Xu for his righteous rescue!"

Xu Xian looked at Gao Jichong on the ground with a blank expression, "Why do you want to kill Li Chuyun?"

Gao Jichong raised his head and looked at Xu Xian and said, "What is the reason why Ji Chong killed Li Chuyun? The Taiwei knew it very well. Today, he got the Taiwei helper to save him, just like Ji Chong's rebirth of his parents. Please accept Ji Chong's three bows."

Gao Jichong had to get out of the disaster and wanted to attract hatred on himself. He was to sue Xu Xian, and to put pressure on Xu Xian to take him in, otherwise Xu Xian would be unrighteous.

Although Nanping was destroyed, it could no longer add any military or economic strength to Xu Xian, but it had a great political influence. Gao Jichong even handed over the letter of suing Xu Xian, but it was difficult to accept it.

He stepped forward and helped Gao Jichong up, "Li Chuyun was greedy for Shizhong's family's resources and killed Shizhong and his family. Now he died under Shizhong's sword. He took it upon himself. Shizhong and I went to Tokyo with me to report the passage to the official family."

Gao Jichong bowed and said, "Now the Gao family has lost its foundation. Gao is like a dog that has lost its family. Jichong only wants to be able to have a small soldier under the tent of the Taiwei for the lieutenant to be the commander of the Taiwei. Please don't call me the Chief Secretary again."

"If you can get Chenghe help, I will be more eager to ask for it. Take your family and someone back to Yangzhou together!" Xu Xian pulled Gao Jichong with a passionate relationship. The Song army general next to him came up and said with a bitter face: "Taiwei, now Li Chuyun is dead, and we may not have any good results when we go back. Can we take Beizhi and his brothers to Yangzhou together?"

Xu Xian said: "I am willing but powerless. Huainan land has a few thousand mouths and I can't feed you. Let's go back and send you some money back to Jiangling."

Xu Xian asked Zhang Jiubao to deal with the subsequent trivial matters, but he and Gao Jichong got on the horse and rushed to Haozhou side by side. They galloped for a while and slowed down. Gao Jichong suddenly came up and said, "The Grand Marshal will not accept the soldiers of the imperial guards, but for Jichong?"

Xu Xian waved his hand and said, "It's not the case. There are 60,000 elite soldiers under a certain tent, all of whom have armor and steel guns. They train every day. Regardless of salary, food, and rewards are much higher than those of the imperial guards. If you want to support such people in Huainan, I will not lose my family's wealth. Thanks to the fact that the Tang Kingdom saw that I was poor a few days ago, I gave me a lot of life before I could get through it."

Gao Jichong said: "The Grand Marshal of Jichong is not as stingy as Li Yu. Most of the family resources that Gao had accumulated in Jiangling for many years were sunk in the Huaihe River when he escaped. Please send someone to fish for military resources!"

"Oh? I don't know how many?"

Gao Jichong stretched out his three fingers and said, "Three million coins are all gold!"

"Oh, then thank you Chenghe."

Seeing that Xu Xian was neither salty nor light, and even looked a little disappointed on his face, he couldn't help but think that Xu Xian didn't even see three million yuan, and his appetite was really big.

He didn't know that Xu Xian didn't think that the money was low, but compared with gold, he wanted brass more at this moment.

In addition to being used as a money, brass can also be used to cast cannons. He also knew that iron cannons were cheap, but after blowing up one after another, Xu Xian chose copper cannons with good ductility, which is also the biggest reason why he spent money.

After testing, the first batch of copper cannons have been mass-cast. The first batch of copper cannons just produced have begun to be loaded. The cannon body is about five feet long and is shiny, with thin front and thick back. The muzzle is larger than the mouth of the bowl and weighs more than a thousand kilograms.

The cliffs on the hull that were originally placed on the crossbow had been reinforced. The soldiers shouted horns and carried heavy cannons on the ship to fix them. A total of more than ten cannons were installed on the left and right sides of a large ship with a thousand-material ship. It took half a day to finish their work.

Xu Xian had been waiting impatiently, "After loading the cannon, hurry up and pull out the anchor. If it delays, it will be dark!"

The ship left the port and headed north along the canal. When they arrived at the water wilderness, the soldiers began to load ammunition. They had been training with iron cannons for a long time before, and their movements were very familiar.

After the loading, Jiubao stepped forward and reported, "The Grand Marshal is ready. When will the fire be ignited?"

"So I'll just click now. Could it be that I have to wait until I get to a crowded place before firing fire!"

The order was passed down, and the soldiers holding the torch stood far away and leaned out to lure the medicine twist behind the cannon barrel. When the medicine twist appeared, they looked bitter and looked like they were waiting for death. Other soldiers who were using cannons also had the same expression.

Xu Xian walked to them and said, "What are you afraid of? This is a bronze cannon that won't explode easily..."

Bang bang bang...

Before Xu Xian could finish his words, there were a series of explosions. Large gusts of blue smoke quickly submerged the hull. The cannonballs shot out and fell three miles away to stir up a large splash of water. The terrified soldier just now howled excitedly when he saw this.

Jiubao said: "The Taiwei is much farther than the crossbow shot in the bed!"

"No, the money is much more expensive than the bed crossbow. I set off a few more rounds of cannons, and I saw that they were all timid and busy just now. I was afraid that something would go wrong when I got to the battle formation."

Jiubao said: "It's just that I'm going to bother the Taiwei to do gunpowder again."

"Hehe...you're afraid you don't know that my gunpowder workshop has been secretly open for a month!"

"So secret, I don't even know the wind at all!"

"You don't know the best. If the secret is leaked one day, I won't doubt you."

"There is a ship in front of the Taiwei!" Jiubao suddenly looked forward and saw a huge official ship coming from the front. Xu Xian couldn't help but curse: "It's not that the waterways in front and behind were blocked, and I don't know what Qi Zhao did."

"It's not him who stood on the bow of the boat. His small body can be seen from a distance."

"Then let him come over!"

Soon the official ship arrived in front of him. When Wangzi jumped up and heard Xu Xian’s face was not kind, he immediately replied: “A distinguished guest came to visit, but his subordinates left his post without permission. Please ask the Grand Marshal to sue him.”

"What distinguished guest, you need to violate military orders!"

Qian Zi came over and whispered in a low voice. Xu Xian couldn't help but frown and said, "Why is she here!"

There was a near evil taste on Zizi's face, "How can this subordinate know about this? The Grand Marshal should ask by himself."
