Daming: Critical writer, all officials beg not to write

“Emperor, Grandpa Xinguo, please take a look!”

Tao Chengdao walked out alone carrying a cannon barrel.

Tang He looked at it and asked, “This is?” ”

“The terrain of the country is mountainous, and it is not as endless as the grassland.”

“And because of the sea, it is rainy and foggy, and the land is muddy.”

“If the heavy artillery of the previous Shenji Battalion arrives in the past, firstly, it is not convenient to cross the mountain, and secondly, if it encounters rain, the wheels may get stuck in the mud pit.”

“At that time, in order to protect the bulky artillery, it is necessary to tie up its hands and feet, which may cause casualties.”

“So we thought of studying a lightweight artillery, and this is it.”

“Its specific structure is unchanged from the new gun, and the thunder mercury is placed in the ignition hole, which does not need to be ignited, and it can be fired with a forceful pull.”

“It’s just that because of the light mass, the range is closer, only about three hundred steps.”

“The amount of gunpowder should be appropriate, otherwise it will be easy to explode.”

Lan Zaichang took out a wooden box from the side and opened it to see that it was full of paper tubes.

“Emperor, father-in-law, these paper tubes are specially used to weigh gunpowder.”

“Filling the barrel with gunpowder is exactly the amount needed for one load, which also speeds up the launch!”

Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the paper tube and looked left and right, “This is convenient!” ”

Tang He picked up the light cannon and took a look, because of the small size, the flintlock mechanism looked very delicate, the surface of the cannon body was extremely smooth, dark and shiny, exuding a momentum.

The barrel is engraved with a straight rifling, which is very convenient for placing shells, and can also hit farther 320.

“Can you try it with a shot?”

Lan Zaichang looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and saw that he bowed his head slightly, and then said: “Yes!” ”

They took out the gun rack, and after placing it, they added gunpowder, plugged it tightly with a copper rod, put the shell in, and filled the ignition hole with thunder mercury.

“Launch!”

I only heard a boom, and the grass pile in front of me was instantly blown apart!

“Good stuff!”

Tang He immediately gave a thumbs up after seeing it and said in admiration.

I have long heard about the power of the new firearms of the Shenji Battalion, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its name!

Lan Zaichang took out the second piece of equipment, which was a cylindrical-shaped slender iron cylinder with a conical tip and three curved pieces of iron at the bottom, as well as a long lead.

Tang He asked puzzled, “What is this again?” ”

“It’s a swarm of bees after our transformation!”

“A swarm?”

The so-called swarm, the cluster rocket invented by the Ming Army, is equipped with a powder keg on the arrow, and then placed in a box.

Just light one lead and you’ll be fired in unison.

There is no talk of aiming, mainly killing by numbers.

Last year, when he paid tribute, he sold it to Champa and Ryukyu, and made a lot of money

Lan Zaichang said: “The development prospects of a swarm are very large, and the lethality is also amazing. ”

“Previously, because of the relatively simple reason, the direction could not be determined, and when it was fought against a small number of enemy forces, it was of little use.”

“We combine arrows and powder kegs into one.”

“When it’s done, it’s now a chei-shaped tube.”

“I call it rocket!”

Tao Chengdao took the launcher over, and Lan Zaichang explained a few words: “It does not rely on arrows to pierce people to hurt people, it is filled with gunpowder, and it can explode like a cannonball!” ”

As he spoke, he adjusted the direction of the launch, lit the lead, and put the rocket in.

After a while, only a bang was heard, and pyrotechnics erupted from behind the rocket, spinning forward and rushing out.

It took half a minute to fly slowly and land, hitting a grass pile in the distance.

A booming explosion rang out, and the grass was blown apart.

A raging fire also ignited on the remaining dead branches and leaves, and it was burned out in a short time.

“Half a minute?”

Tang He took a look at the binoculars: “Old brother, I’m afraid it has to take about a thousand steps to go!” ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and Lan Zaichang said: “Emperor, father-in-law, just because of the experiment, we didn’t fill too much gunpowder. ”

“According to previous tests, the rocket should be able to fly at a maximum distance of more than two thousand paces.”

“It’s just that the change in charge requires a professional practitioner to operate, because if the rocket flies farther, the gunpowder of the warhead also needs to be changed, otherwise it will explode in the middle!”

“Two thousand steps?”

Tang He raised his binoculars and looked forward, although the explosion power was not as powerful as artillery, but this ultra-long killing distance…

It is simply an artifact in the landing battle!

Come back twice as strong!

Lan Zaichang said, “You see, in addition to exploding, rockets can also be set on fire. ”

“The seaside of the Wokou is exactly the same as the coastal environment of Zhejiang, mostly wooden houses, plus the monsoon on the sea.”

“Drop thousands of rockets, and nine times out of ten, the whole city will be set ablaze!”

“With a hot air balloon, you can also capture any bunker!”

“It can even be mounted on the ship’s bulwark for naval battles!”

Yuwa can imagine the scene at that time.

They stood on a hilltop, and countless rockets flew into each other’s cities, and then ignited a monstrous fire.

Some were burned alive, others trampled to death, and even the lake was boiled. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）

The smell of tar fills the air, and the city is self-defeating!

Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: “This kind of good thing, it’s just a bonobo, it’s overkill.” ”

“Are there any other weapons?”

Lan Zaichang shook his head: “At present, we have studied these two models for the geographical environment of the Wokou. ”

“The Ministry of Engineering has been fully put into production, and it will soon be able to equip the Eastern Crusade army!”

“Hmm!”

The group came to the duty room of the Ministry of Work, and the subordinate served a few cups of tea, and Zhu Yuanzhang said: “Lan Zaichang, Tao Chengdao.” ”

“Each of you is a hundred stones.”

“After such a long time, the position should also be moved.”

“Lan Zaichang, you are building a division for the Ministry of Work, adding an official level, and being a positive fourth product!”

“Tao Chengdao, you are a foreign minister of the Ministry of Work, and you are also an official level! For the five products! ”

The two hurriedly knelt down: “The ministers and others bow to the emperor.” ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said, “Give Yang Siyi a hundred stones as well.” ”

“Since Huang Su was killed, the shelf of this Ministry of Works was completely built by Han Yike, and after he left, Yang Siyi also made a good name, and he should be rewarded.”

Yang Siyi, Shangshu of the Ministry of Work, was an old minister during the Hongwu period, who had previously been in charge of the Hubu, and also transferred to practical studies, and became a figure of the Jingshi school.

The two left the Ministry of Works and walked to the Tianjie, looking at the prosperous scenery in front of them and feeling it: “Old brother! ”

“I have also seen the Great Ming Map in Xingxue Mansion.”

“Usually in Fengyang, I was deeply touched by coming to Ying Tianhou.”

“But when I saw that picture, I was still shocked!”

“Hahaha!” Zhu Yuanzhang laughed a few times and said, “It’s not just you. ”

“We, Biao’er, sister, were shocked when they saw it.”

“The mountains and rivers are picturesque, how many heroes at a time!”

The two walked to a stall next to it, and asked for two bowls of oil noodles as before.

Zhu Yuanzhang was still standing on the stool on one leg, eating with relish.

Tang He saw him happy and said smoothly: “Old brother, this crusade against the Yin Kingdom, how about you personally?” ”

“Changmao, right!”

Before he could say anything, Zhu Yuanzhang said the name of the person.

Tang He was stunned, nodded and said, “Yes! ”

“At the beginning, you and Chang Yuchun had a good relationship, and Chang Mao’s kid has never been a weapon.”

“This crusade is stable, there is such a good opportunity, you must fight for him!”

Tang He said: “Old brother, I often met the heroes of the Spring generation, but Chang Mao didn’t do a few things after he was named Zheng Guogong, and he didn’t even go to this Northern Expedition.” ”

“Nameless, silent.”

“In the long run, who else in the world remembers Chang 100,000, what is the role of his empty name of Zheng Guogong?”

Zhu Yuanzhang once asked Chang Yuchun a word, how many soldiers can you lead?

Chang Yuchun said that as long as 100,000 people themselves, they can be invincible and the world.

In the Battle of Poyang Lake, he repelled Zhang Dingbian, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Fuzhou, and Guangdong, and he won easily with each expedition.

At the time of the Northern Expedition, he was also Xu Da’s most powerful helper!

It’s just a pity that he had a problem with killing prisoners, and he died violently with Willow River at the time of triumph.

Later, the Daming state was canonized, and Zhu Yuanzhang made a total of six dukes.

Li Shanchang was the first, and Zheng Guogong of Chang Yuchun was succeeded by his son Chang Mao.

It’s just that Chang Mao’s ability is mediocre, and Tang He also wants to pull him so as not to fall into Zheng Guogong’s reputation!

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded gently: “Okay, after we return to the palace, we will make an order and point Changmao into your East Sea Division army.” ”

“But that kid has an excited personality, and he is a reckless character, exactly the same as the blue jade before.”

“You must be optimistic and try to reverse his temperament.”

“Send a Liaozhai dictionary in our name, let him study well in his spare time, and Blue Jade is his example!”

Tang Heyan said, “Yes!” ”

“Eat quickly, the noodles are cold!”.
