Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 232 The disadvantages of the tiger crouching cannon!

Xun Yu naturally knew what Emperor Han thought.

Therefore, Xun Yu's current position in the Hebei camp is quite subtle.

On the one hand, with Yuan Tan's courtesy, no one would really disrespect this former mastermind of Cao Ying.

But on the other hand, because of the delicate relationship between Xun Yu and Han Xiandi, the important officials in the Hebei camp also respected Xun Yu at a distance.

After all, there are lessons learned from Yuan Shu.

No one knew whether Yuan Shao would suddenly want to ascend the throne as emperor in a flash of his brain one day.

You know, Yuan Shu's behavior of proclaiming himself emperor can basically be included in the operation that he could not do without a cerebral thrombosis in ten years.

The foundation is not stable, and the hearts of the people are not convinced, so that he became a target just after he proclaimed himself emperor, and was besieged by the princes of the world with flags raised. Even Yuan Shao couldn't find a reason.

Go support yourself, this stupid Odoudou.

But now, times have changed.

Not to mention the fact that Emperor Han changed hands twice, which dealt a huge blow to the prestige of the Han Dynasty.

The wars in the Central Plains alone in these years have made the people at the bottom miserable.

The people at the bottom couldn't go on, and the local tyrants might not have a good life.

When the feudal dynasty, the actual spokesperson of the emperor's power in the local area, these local tyrants began to yearn for peace.

A powerful person who has absolute power and has great hope to unify the world and make the world peaceful appears.

It will definitely attract the support of many people.

And Yuan Shao is precisely the character who can bring them hope.

Therefore, at this time, Xun Yu was very embarrassed to stand in the position of the royalist party.

Once Yuan Shao really proclaimed himself emperor, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty would definitely be taken care of. As for the royal ministers standing beside Emperor Xian of Han.

Even more, one counts as one, and they cannot escape the fate of being implicated.

But, does Xun Yu know this?

With his ability and wisdom, how could he not have imagined that if he continued to maintain the royalist position, it might bring him disaster?

But as the saying goes, a gentleman does something and doesn't do something.

If you treat me as a gentleman of the country, I will repay you as a soldier of the country.

Although the little emperor was a little incompetent, a little timid, and a little cowardly, but in all fairness, for Xun Yu, a character who stood by his side from the beginning.

Still maintains a great deal of trust and a high degree of empowerment.

He almost regards Xun Yu as the only spokesperson for the communication between the princes who control the Han Emperor and the Han Dynasty.

With such trust, Xun Yu really couldn't do it. He abandoned the little emperor and completely devoted himself to the princes.

Even if it must be done, it will have to wait until the little emperor dies.

While thinking about it, Xun Yu glanced back, deep in the palace of Yecheng, the deep palace specially used to house the emperor of Han, sighed insignificantly.

Then he walked into the depths of the palace wall again.

Almost at the same time, Yuan Tan, who returned to Xuzhou City, was also looking up, but what he was looking at was not a palace wall.

It was a stone wall built by the soldiers three hundred paces away.

"General, the power of this tiger squat cannon is too great!"

Standing behind Yuan Tan, Gao Lan and Jiang Qi looked at the stone wall that had been blasted into ruins, and couldn't help but say in surprise.

Even Xu Huang, who had just arrived in Xuzhou and hadn't been on the battlefield for two years, was quite unfamiliar with all this.

After seeing the power of the tiger squatting cannon, they couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts.

If such a powerful battle weapon were placed on the battlefield, which troop would be able to withstand such a thunderous strike?
However, looking at this pile of ruined stone walls, Yuan Tan smacked his mouth in disappointment, shook his head and said:
"It's okay, that's all."

At this time, it has been nearly a month since Yuan Tan issued the design drawings of the Tiger Crouching Cannon.

During this month, Yuan Tan specially asked Jiang Qi and several skilled craftsmen from the military craftsman camp to be transferred over quickly.

After nearly a month of hard work, it was barely possible to restore the tiger crouching cannon.

But how should I put it...

In Yuan Tan's hand, although he had the design drawing of the tiger crouching cannon, after he actually got the design drawing, Yuan Tan finally realized a serious problem.

motherfucker.

He has a tiger crouching cannon.

But the question arises, what about the shells used by the tiger squat gun?
The tiger crouching cannon is an out-and-out firearm. Although it is only a kind of ancient firearm, it has been developed and improved continuously for hundreds of years to form a peak firearm.

Although Yuan Tan knew, the standard formula of gunpowder.

But the problem is, knowing the standard formula does not mean that you can make shells that are perfectly suitable for tiger squat guns!
After several trials, the final product was nothing more than simply knocking down a simple stone wall.

Although in the eyes of Gao Lan and others, this is already an extremely remarkable achievement.

But for Yuan Tan, who knows the actual power of the tiger squatting cannon, this power is not even half of the real full-strength blow of the tiger squatting cannon!

You know, in the Ming Dynasty, the tiger crouching cannon existed as a siege weapon.

But the current Yuan Shihu squatting cannon, its function is a bit too tasteless.

Use it to siege the city, the tiger squatting cannon can knock down the simple stone wall, but it is against the real city wall defense, especially the fortified city like Shouchun.

Don't say it collapsed, but if it can leave a few white marks, it is already quite good.

But if you use it for field battles.

Although the tiger crouching gun is much simpler than those large and heavy guns of later generations, such as stone mortar guns.

But it's not so simple that you can run around with a large army.

During the Ming Dynasty, there were special firearms battalions, but the movement speed of those firearms battalions was too slow.

It is completely inconsistent with the style and needs of Yuan Tan's fast-playing and fast-breaking style.

Shaking his head helplessly, Yuan Tan temporarily turned his attention away from the tiger squat cannon, and ordered Jiang Qi to continue experimenting to see if he could find a better tiger squat cannon shell formula.

Then he cast his eyes on Xu Huang who had been a little nervous since he arrived at Xuzhou Camp, and said lightly:
"General Xu Huang hasn't seen you for two years, but if you see me today, what advice do you have?"

Hearing Yuan Tan finally asked a question, Xu Huang suppressed the tension and worry in his heart, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said in a deep voice:

"The last general has no other intentions to see the Major General. I just want to ask the Major General. If Yuan Gong swallows the sea and calms down the world in the future, how will he arrange for His Majesty?"

"Place Your Majesty?"

Hearing Xu Huang's words, Yuan Tan was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Xu Huang with a bewildered expression.

He really didn't expect that you, Xu Huang, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are actually a royalist general!
However, after experiencing the initial shock, Yuan Tan gradually calmed down.

Anyway, whether it is Romance of the Three Kingdoms or Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many details are not shown.

It is the most stupid thing to judge a person only by history books, not to mention that with himself as a time traveler, Xu Huang has really become a royalist general.

It's not even a shocking thing.

Anyway, he already has an extra Xu Shu who has begun to study the Complete Book of the Six Secret Teachings and is very likely to surpass Brother Pig and become the number one strategist of the Three Kingdoms in the future.

Not short of one more royalist general Xu Huang.

Immediately, Yuan Tan smiled lightly and said:

"What does General Xu Huang mean by saying this, why not make it clearer?"

Hearing Yuan Tan's words, Xu Huang couldn't help showing a wry smile, clasped his fists and said:

"Why do you need to ask the major general knowingly? The last general just wants to know the major general's attitude towards His Majesty today."

Attitude towards the little emperor?

Yuan Tan pondered for a moment, then said slowly:

"If he keeps his own place, after the world is settled down, it might be possible to give him the position of Lord Anle, so that he can spend his old age in peace, but if he doesn't open his eyes, is it possible that General Xu Huang still wants me, Yuan Shi, to bear it again and again?" Tolerate?"

Hearing Yuan Tan's answer, there was no surprise on Xu Huang's face, but the bitterness was a little bit more.

For the little emperor's cowardly yet somewhat arrogant character.

Letting him be honest and contented is basically delusional.

So, after struggling for a long time, Xu Huang bowed and said sincerely:

"If the last general will fight in all directions in exchange for your majesty's stability, at least, please give him a few chances, if your majesty has never... never really done anything unbearable, please also ask the majesty Considering the achievements of the last general, how much should you forgive him?"

Hearing Xu Huang's words, Yuan Tan's expression became more and more weird.

It's not that Xu Huang's words are so unexpected.

It was Yuan Tan who suddenly thought that in the official history, when Xu Huang took refuge in Boss Cao's command, he wouldn't have made the same rhetoric.

It's a pity that Xu Huang passed away too early in the official history, and he was the first to die among the five good generals.

After his death, the little emperor didn't seem to have done anything wrong.

That being said, the possibility doesn't seem too small.

As for Xu Huang's request, is it too much?

If Yuan Shao had come here, he would definitely feel that it was too much, after all Xu Huang was just a general.

To actually use this to judge the lord, it is too serious to say nothing about himself.

You come and go, are you loyal to the little emperor, or to my Yuan family?

But in Yuan Tan's opinion, this deal is quite a bargain.

After all, Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, may still be able to play well in Xuchang.

After all, in Xuchang, there are still a group of relatives and relatives of the emperor, and a large number of courtiers who have been working behind the Liu family emperor since the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

If you want to start a rebellion or something, don't be too easy.

But now, the little emperor was brought to Ye City by Yuan Tan.

One has no connections, and the other has no people to rely on. In addition to his tricks and tricks, he was basically suppressed by Yuan Tan to death.

It's impossible to create a fire in the backyard.

However, even so, Yuan Tan didn't really agree to Xu Huang, making himself seem so eager.

Instead, after pondering for a moment, he said slowly:

"Since General Xu Huang has said so, I will not refuse to agree, but there are only three chances, if General Xu Huang agrees, then come to my account!"
