Reborn and married to a stupid scholar, she has a prosperous husband and multiple children
Chapter 481 The power of muskets
Lin Shuangshuang looked at the solemn expression on the emperor's face and knew that he had realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Your Majesty, I have something else to present to Your Majesty. This is the highlight of today."
When the emperor heard the words highlight, he immediately put away all his thoughts and focused on the highlight.
I saw Lin Shuangshuang holding out a luxurious gift box, with a small musket lying quietly inside.
The emperor held it in his hand and weighed it. It was quite heavy. He just didn't know what this thing was used for.
Why is it the highlight?
"Your Majesty, this is a musket. It is a very powerful weapon."
Hearing the word weapon, the emperor's hands did not tremble in fear, but instead his eyes burst with hot light.
I really feel sleepy and I give you a pillow.
"How to use this musket?"
"Could this be a hidden weapon?"
Lin Shuangshuang nodded: "It can also be said to be a hidden weapon."
"Your Majesty, this thing is very powerful. Let the imperial guards try to snatch it."
"That's right."
I saw Lin Shuangshuang holding a gun and walking up to the guard just now: "My lord, are your archery skills accurate?"
"shoot with great precision."
"it is good."
"Your Majesty, is there any open space in the palace, or a training ground or something like that?"
Eunuch Su immediately stepped forward: "Please come, Mr. Lin and the old slave."
The emperor also went to watch it in person. He wanted to see how powerful this overseas weapon was.
The guards at the coaching ground followed Lin Shuangshuang's instructions and placed an archery target 200 meters away.
In order to prove the penetrating power of the bullet, she also had a dozen arrow targets placed behind the target to see how many targets could be penetrated at one time.
Guard Fang's face darkened as he watched Lin Shuangshuang place the arrow target two hundred meters away.
Does this woman understand that archery has a range?
She placed the target so far away, how could anyone hit it?
Was this woman deliberately trying to make him look embarrassed?
"Master Lin, the farthest range of my crossbow is only a hundred steps away."
"No matter how powerful your short arrow is, its range will exceed fifty steps."
"You placed the target too far."
In Fang Weiwei's eyes, the small hidden weapon in his hand had no wind or resistance, and the arrow was only as long as a palm. How far could such a hidden weapon shoot?
Lin Shuangshuang smiled with confidence: "If you can't even shoot a hundred steps, how can we talk about the highlight?"
"Just ask Guard Fang to shoot as I just taught you."
After Lin Shuangshuang finished speaking, he hid far away and then covered his ears.
When Eunuch Su saw her posture, he immediately protected the emperor behind him, and suggested that the emperor also stay away and cover his ears.
The emperor felt embarrassed. How could he, a majestic king of a country, be so timid and fearful of trouble?
He looked at Guard Fang again. He wasn't afraid of people shooting, so what was he afraid of as a spectator?
Lin Shuangshuang covered her ears and shouted loudly: "Guard Fang, you can pull the trigger after you take aim."
Guard Fang held his breath, aimed at the bullseye, pressed down with his index finger, and heard a bang. The huge force shook the tiger's mouth numb.
Fortunately, he had been training all year round and could deal with various situations, so he did not throw the musket out in shock.
Just when everyone was shocked by the loud noise, guards had already gone to check the bullseye.
There was nothing on the first bullseye, and there was still nothing on the second target. It was not until the tenth target that I found a small bullet casing in the center of the bullseye.
The people who reacted saw the guard checking the bullseye stop in front of the eighth target, and they all looked at each other in shock.
Could it be...that's what they thought?
This small hidden weapon not only had a range of more than 200 steps, but also penetrated eight archery targets?
How can this be?
The emperor ignored his manners and strode forward with his skirt in hand. The crowns on his forehead collided with each other and jingled.
The emperor ran past each archery target and saw that each target was the size of a peanut. He was so excited that he almost couldn't breathe.
Finally, he stopped in front of the eighth archery target and saw the small empty bullet casing in the guard's hand.
The emperor turned it over and over in his hand. How could this small thing be so powerful?
"Your Majesty, this thing is small and compact. You can carry it with you. It is a powerful weapon for self-defense."
The emperor couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, yes, this thing is very good, and it is indeed very powerful."
But then he became even more worried. It was a pity that such powerful weapons came from other countries.
This is a huge threat to any country.
If they can't build this kind of weapon in a short period of time, waiting for overseas countries to come across the ocean to attack them will not be as easy as chopping vegetables and melons.
"Your Majesty, please move to the imperial study. I have more important things to report."
The emperor looked back at him: "Is it related to this musket?"
"Exactly."
When he arrived at the imperial study, the emperor couldn't wait to ask: "Lin Aiqing, can you make such a musket?"
Lin Shuangshuang said: "Your Majesty, have you noticed that the material of this musket is not iron."
"Of course I know. Do you know this material?"
"This musket is made of steel."
"It is also smelted from iron ore, but our smelting technology is still far behind."
"Anyone who knows how to make iron knows that if you want to make good iron, temperature is the most important thing."
"If you want to make steel, you have higher temperature requirements. As the saying goes, steel can be made in a hundred times, and our charcoal can't reach it at all."
"You need fuels that are more heat-resistant and flame-resistant, such as coal."
Lin Shuangshuang said, pointing to a box of dark stones behind him.
"Your Majesty, this is the raw stone of the coal mine, which is perfect for use as fuel for smelting."
"Of course, if you want to make steel, refractory bricks are also essential."
"Besides, Wei Chen also has an artillery design drawing here."
"Fireguns are used for self-defense, but they are not good enough for use in battles. Artillery is the weapon that is really used on the battlefield."
Lin Shuangshuang said and handed the artillery drawing to Eunuch Su.
The emperor's hands were trembling with excitement as he held the drawing, as if he was so short of words that he only had one good word left.
"Your Majesty, this is Gu Hanzhou's sincerity to you. I wonder if these coal mines and artillery blueprints can be exchanged for the safety of the Gu family?"
The emperor finally calmed down, and his words were both a question and a threat.
If this couldn't save the lives of the entire Gu family, then Gu Hanzhou could still create more powerful weapons.
He is now the national counselor of the Jin Kingdom. As long as he wants, the cannon can be pointed at the gate of the Yu Dynasty at any time.
Therefore, Lin Shuangshuang was forcing the emperor to protect the Gu family whether they could or not.
The emperor put down the drawings and said with a smile: "Lin Aiqing is tired from traveling and traveling. Please kneel down and pay your respects as soon as possible."
"Come here and arrange for Lin Aiqing to stay in the palace."
After all, Lin Shuangshuang did not have a mansion in Jinling City, and as a woman, she was not afraid of messing up the harem.
"Tomorrow, someone will notify you to come to the morning court."
"Yes, I am resigning."
