Ming dynasty grand dude

"Now they are just making atonement. After all, it would be a waste to kill them directly..."

The four families who said this shivered involuntarily, as if the temperature in this hot weather dropped suddenly...

In the next straight road, everyone lost the intention to continue watching, especially the part where the prisoner built.

They saw many familiar faces again, and even some people who were once regarded as prestigious in their eyes.

Now he is here miserable, working with his head drooping like a wild dog.

The visit ended in a hurry, and the group quickly returned to Wangjiang Tower with their own thoughts.

After lunch and rest for a while, housekeeper Xiao Zhou came to Wangjiang Tower with a smile.

Take them to the pier and take a boat straight up the river, and then turn to Zhongyi Township.

On the river along the way, I saw many prisoners repairing and widening the river, and some familiar faces were among them...

"Rumble..." The master craftsmen in the foundry branch just greeted the arrival of the housekeeper Xiao Zhou.

Then they went to work in a hurry, after all, their work was too much and too heavy.

On the contrary, the batch-by-batch building directly made the hearts of the four soil turtles who were qualified to enter the foundry branch tremble with fright.

"Ding dong~ ding dong~!" The huge water hammer knocked continuously, and the forged plate armor with water pressure "Kakaka~".

One after another swords were forged, and there was even a cannon that was forged so ferociously.

The pattern of the entire foundry branch was something they had never seen before, nor could they imagine. Everything here was well-organized, neat and orderly.

But they are extremely busy, and almost everyone is busy with their own affairs with a solemn face.

"This is a two-inch rapid-fire gun built in Hongzhi's 14th year. It works well for sieges! The range is about two miles, and it can break through a two-foot masonry wall..."

The master craftsman next to him was a little impatient to be found, he was doing new crafts recently.

Thinking about researching the new technology as soon as possible, earning a lot of points.

If the housekeeper Xiao Zhou hadn't said that it was Zhang Xiaogong's order, and that he would give him points, he wouldn't have come.

"This is a five-inch field gun from Hongzhi's 14th year. It is a little heavier. I am leading people to adjust it..."

"The shooting range can reach nearly three miles, and the city gate can basically be broken. It's just that the city wall is a little troublesome, and two feet should be no problem."

The calves of the four families were trembling after hearing the data, especially Lao Yang and Lao An.

The eyes of the two of them are not clean at all, no wonder those familiar celebrities are all working now.

It's not going to be much better if I change myself!

"There are still [-]-inch and [-]-inch heavy artillery. Now improve the transportation. Next time they go to the mountains to suppress bandits and take them to try the artillery."

The big craftsman said indifferently, "Even if it is a natural danger, I can make him disappear!!"

"Gudu~!" Lao Yang and Lao An suddenly shrunk their backs, feeling slightly chilled...

Chapter 421 Seeing Xu Ning in Zhujia's barracks, the guns blare and the liver trembles

"This is the casting room for farm tools. This is a place where farm tools are specially cast and supplied to northern Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang..."

Since we are here to visit, it is impossible to only visit this small part. Other workshops should also be seen!

Otherwise, doesn't it seem too deliberate? !

The four farming equipment companies are also interested, after all, they have a lot of obvious land properties and farms.

Looking at those shiny steel farming tools, he thought to himself, no wonder that Eunuch Qian came to northern Guangdong to purchase them.

How could they finish visiting the huge foundry branch in one afternoon? Many places just took a look at it.

But the four families have found their own focus. For example, An Ronggui and Yang Ai are very interested in armor, swords, artillery...

Song Ran was more interested in farming tools, and even asked if he could buy a batch to go back to Qiandongnan.

After getting an affirmative answer, Song Ran was very happy. Song Ran was just curious but didn't care about the sword and armor.

But the little girl Tian Lei is very interested in various types of iron woks. The butler Xiao Zhou smiled and said that the sales right of Qiandongnan seems to be still in the hands of the North Guangdong Merchandising Association.

If the Tian family is interested in this, they can go to discuss it.

It was not until the evening that their visit was barely over, and the four families fell silent again on the way back.

Tian Lei silently recounted everything she saw in the foundry branch to her grandfather Tian Hao.

"Tomorrow... will probably be the highlight!"

After listening to his granddaughter's retelling, Tian Hao was silent for a while and sighed, "This jade chi tiger is determined to win Qiandongnan!"

This conclusion changed from judgment to affirmation the next day.

Mao Rui did not directly lead them into the barracks of the National Defense Forces, but took them to the front of the barracks and handed them over to Xu Ning.

"Hahaha... I'm sorry! Recently, the governor ordered the eradication of banditry in northern Guangdong. It's impolite to have too many things and not visit you!"

Others may not know Xu Ning, but An Ronggui and Yang Ai do.

This old general has a great reputation, and he has killed a lot of people in the Nine Sides so far since joining the army with his hair tied.

In the last battle with the Tatars, he was still strong and did not give up, and directly cut more than thirty levels!

A group of people hurriedly said where and where, but this time Tian Hao stood up silently.

Xu Ning didn't seem surprised, and smiled and invited Tian Hao and Tian Lei to enter the camp together in a special carriage.

The other three families didn't care about the old housekeeper at this time, why was he allowed to enter the camp.

They are just looking at the camp now, their hearts are trembling.

The walls of the barracks are connected by chariots, and horses are placed in front of the gate.

The two teams were constantly patrolling, wearing Shiwu cross swords and back guns of a style of armor they had never seen before.

And not far outside the camp, the carriage stopped and only walking was allowed.

A few men in the straight military uniforms of the National Defense Forces led the way, and the men in armor with standard sabers on their waists and hips and muskets on their backs gave a solemn military salute.

Xu Ning and the others also returned the salute solemnly, and then led them into the camp.

All the officers and soldiers passing by in the barracks were dressed in uniform straight military uniforms, and they walked in rows of three and in columns of two.

They exchanged military salutes, while Xu Ning and the others returned the salutes one by one.

Passing through the camp area and quickly entering the school grounds, whistles, shouts, roars and impacts could be heard from a distance.

"Roar!!"

When they approached, they could see from a distance countless men in protective clothing on the school grounds, holding wooden guns, wooden knives and shields, fighting to kill.

Yang Ai, Song Ran, and Tian Lei couldn't understand it, but An Ronggui and Tian Hao stared angrily!

The small formations cooperate extremely well, and they have an incomparable understanding with each other.

The big shield hand resists, the spearman assassinates, and the sword shield hand makes up the knife and fills up the position to block.

"Beep, gather!!"

The major performing on the school grounds gave a military salute to Xu Ning, and when he heard Xu Ning's order, he blew his whistle to call everyone together.

However, these men who were still fighting just now quickly lined up in a line, and no one asked questions or made a sound during the whole process.

"Report the number!!"

"one two three four……"

"Report! Three outposts, twelve to sixty-five, should arrive at ten people, actually ten! Wuzheng Zhao Qing, please order!"

"Report!……"

An Ronggui's face changed slightly when he saw the loud shouts and the neat military appearance.

Elite!Absolute elite! !

Compared with these tigers and wolves, those generals and soldiers of the guard that An Ronggui looked down upon were simply rascals!

"My lord governor has an order to give the guests a drill! Go prepare!"

"Yes!!"

Xu Ning smiled slightly, and said softly, "Ben will be on the shooting range for a quarter of an hour! Do you understand?!"

"Yes!!"

Hearing this, Xu Ning smiled slightly, and returned the salute to the major beside him.

"Bring each team back! Change clothes, gather at the shooting range within a quarter of an hour! Disband!!"

Except for orders, except for answers, there are no superfluous words.

Except for solemnity and concentration, they didn't have any extra expressions.

An Ronggui suddenly felt that what he once thought he was powerful was so ridiculous in front of others.

In fact, Yang Ai was even more shocked. At this moment, he made a decision to go back and immediately destroy all the illegal equipment!

Damn it!I thought that most of Ming's troops were soldiers from the guards in southeastern Guizhou, southern Yunnan, and central Sichuan.

But those are the most unusable mangy dogs with bald tails. These are the elite of the family!

"Let's go! Go to the shooting range and have a look..."

Xu Ning smiled and made a gesture of invitation to everyone, and the four families reluctantly smiled and followed.

Now they don't even have the thought of exchanging pleasantries, they just want to see the support of the national defense force other than the soldiers.

The school grounds were not far away, but during their silent walk, there was a sound of "rumbling..." kicking behind them.

There are also shouts of "one, two, three, four..." from far to near.

They looked back in astonishment, and indeed saw that the army just now had all put on armor!

Shouting chant in his mouth, he actually came towards them rumblingly like kicking.

He didn't stop in the middle, but just paid attention to Xu Ning.

Xu Ning stopped and gave them a military salute in return.

Soon, the group arrived at the shooting range.

A door of hideous artillery, a team of soldiers with armor crossed swords and back guns.

The chariots were erected to serve as shields, and the cavalry on the horses were silently preparing.

The imitated city wall stood towering in the distance, Xu Ning smiled and asked them to go and check it out.

At this time, the four family members could not care about other things, and they rode over to check it without even refusing.

thick!Although no cement was used, glutinous rice, mud and green bricks were also used.

This is even better than their city walls in Qiandongnan.

Chapter 422 The roar of the guns shakes the turtles, the heart is cold and the heart is flying

Although they didn't know what those wooden stakes in front of the city wall were for, they still retreated after observing the city wall for a while.

When they withdrew, they saw the team leading sheep in old Ming army armor to the front of the position.

Either tied to the city wall, or tied in front of the city wall.

At the same time, scarecrows were erected on the stakes one by one, all wearing old Ming army armor.

"Prepare!!"

With one order, several teams were quickly arranged in a formation "Ka Ka Ka ~".

"Beep~!"

As soon as the whistle sounded, the musketeers in the first row went "bang bang bang..." directly behind the big shield, and fired the first round of shooting.

But I saw those flocks of sheep in armor "cracking~" and bloody flowers exploded from their bodies!

"Baa~~" The shrill screams resounded in front of this position, but the attack was not over yet.
