In the banquet hall, Qi Liang's understatement and ease of conversation and laughter contrasted sharply with the reverence of his subordinates and the shock of the Western missionaries, and he completely dominated the entire banquet.

"Pastors, do you know? All the dynasties of our Chinese dynasty have forbidden trade with foreign countries, and forbidden people from all over the world to enter the land of China, let alone allow any preaching! Qi Liang said softly and bluntly, and suddenly changed his tone, "Xiao Wang can arrest you for the crime of illegal entry!" ”

The mind of the superior is inscrutable, and the mysterious Oriental is not even understandable to Westerners, and two missionaries showed a frightened look, but Montel's face did not change, and he did not think so, and asked meaningfully: "Could it be that His Royal Highness the Prince has set up a Hongmen banquet today?" He was full of confidence, since this prince of the border rebellion treated him with good food and wine, he should have something to ask for himself, and now it is time to enter the topic, and he is looking forward to it!

Qi Liang was surprised, this Montel is not simple, even the allusion of the "Hongmen Banquet" is known, thinking that his words just now failed to scare him, he no longer beat around the bush, and said directly: "Let's make a deal!" ”

Montell stroked his upturned beard on his right side and grinned, "Your Royal Highness, what deal are we making?" ”

Qi Liang smiled but did not answer, and turned to others: "In addition to knowing the theological Bible, do you know Aristotle, Newton, Galileo, Bruno, Bacon?" ”

The Western missionaries were even more surprised, some of whom they were familiar with, such as Aristotle, Bacon, etc., who were great wise men; Some of them don't know, such as Newton, who was just thirty years old at this time, and his treatise "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" had not yet been published, and his famous "Newton's Three Definitions" had not yet been published; Some of them hated them and regarded them as apostates, such as Bruno and Galileo.

Montel stood up with a look of dismay, and asked respectfully, "Your Royal Highness, I admire your erudition, but how can you mention apostates like Galileo and Bruno with great wise men like Aristotle and Bacon?" ”

Later history has long proved that those apostates are the real wise men, and Qi Liang disdains: "None of my hundreds of millions of Chinese people believe in Jesus, are they all apostates?" ”

Montel raised his head to the sky, clasped his hands together, and said reverently: "The mysterious eastern continent is an undeveloped virgin land, and under the preaching of tireless priests, the suffering creatures will be converted to God Jesus!" ”

Qi Hao laughed, the civilization bred by thousands of years of history in the land of China is much more brilliant than that of the West, and it has become an uncivilized virgin land in the eyes of Westerners.

Qi Liang was also reluctant to speak his tongue, and the proposition was debated endlessly, so he stretched out his hand to stop Montel and asked, "Pastor Montel!" Do any of you know geometry, physics, chemistry, mathematics? ”

The missionaries looked at each other, and a blond-haired man stood up and said, "Your Royal Highness, Honorable Prince! Contemptible people have studied geometry and mathematics! Qi Liang remembered that this person was Rubery.

A middle-aged man with blue eyes like mist then stood up: "Contemptible people have studied some physics and chemistry!" "This is Limo.

Qi Liang looked at the two of them and bowed their heads, and Montel smiled: "Your Royal Highness! Every one of us knows something about this! This is true, and people who have joined the church in the West since childhood will learn some knowledge in this area.

Qi Liang stood up excitedly: "Priests! Our deal is this: Xiao Wang allows you to preach and preach within the scope of my control, and you teach the students of my college! ”

"This is the so-called deal of His Royal Highness the Prince?" Montel couldn't believe it, it was too easy, and it was better to go to the academy to teach.

Qi Liang shook his head: "This is only one aspect!" ”

It's not that simple, Montel looked at Qi Liang: "What is the other side?" Although it was good, he was not in a hurry to agree to Qi Liang.

Qi Liang said: "Xiao Wang wants to invite one or two of you to return to the West, and invite some technicians, scholars, and businessmen for Xiao Wang, for every fifty people invited, Xiao Wang will allow you to build a church within my control!" ”

That's a good thing, too, but Montel understands that some of them have been taken hostage. Bow your head and talk to other people, and speak Western words that you think others don't understand.

Qi Liang really didn't understand everything, but after all, he was an undergraduate student who had passed English Level 4, and he still knew a few English words that he agreed with and affirmed. He leisurely picked up his wine glass, sucked it gently, and slowly waited for the outcome of Montel and the others' deliberations.

"Your Royal Highness, we agree with your suggestion, we hope that you will guarantee the safety of our personnel, and you will have to ......" Montel began to bargain.

Qi Liang cut off: "Dear Pastor Montel! As long as you agree to this agreement of intent, you can discuss the specific matters with my Lord Liu Xuanchu, the chief historian of Tianshuo Mansion, it is a banquet, and we will only drink! He raised his glass: "Here, cheers, everyone!" ”

Montel was stunned, but still complied: "Come! Cheers! ”

After the luncheon, Qi Liang took a nap and actually had a daydream, and almost lost a ridiculous human flesh war with a woman. Qi Liang got up and patted his head, trying to think about the woman in his dream, it seemed to be Princess Jianning, it seemed to be Qi Xiyin, and it was a bit like Chen Yuanyuan! Thinking of Chen Yuanyuan, he couldn't help but be surprised, his head shook like a rattle, desperately trying to dispel this ridiculous idea, he really had a dream every day!

The spring breeze blows outside, the flying flowers fall and the spring dream is far away, Qi Liang sat down dejectedly, Leng'er was distracted, and it was a pity that the dream disappeared too quickly, and the spring dream was without a trace!

"Shizi! It's been a while since the manufacturing institute was prepared! Seeing Qi Liang wake up, Xiao Liuzi brought him a basin of water.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Qi Liang stopped wiping his face.

"The prince is sleeping soundly, and the little sixth son can't bear to ......," the little sixth son said worriedly.

Qi Liang lost his temper: "You can't bear to let people stay stupid?" "That being said, if Gang Gang was really interrupted by Xiao Liuzi's spring dream, I don't know what kind of temper he will have when he wakes up?

It seems that it is necessary to develop a workable work and rest system, so that it is not good for people to wait, but it is not good to be annoyed by others during daily rest.

Hurriedly wiped his hands, Qi Liang rushed to the meeting room, nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, Hong Tong, who is good at weapon making in the manufacturing institute, is very looking forward to seeing him, could it be that the trigger repeating crossbow has been made?

"The villain knocks on the son!" Seeing Qi Liang striding over, Hong Tong, who was waiting patiently, hurriedly left his seat and knelt down.

"Master Hong, please get up!" Qi Liang helped Hong Tong and asked eagerly: "But did you make that new crossbow?" ”

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission!" Hong Tong took out a short crossbow from a leather pouch behind his back, and respectfully handed it to Qi Liang's eyes with both hands, his thin face was full of deep furrows and ravines covered with laughter.

Qi Liang looked closely, this is a repeating crossbow with an arrow compartment, with an arrow slot and a buckle. The crossbow arm is attached to the bamboo crossbow trunk; The lever that controls the operation of the entire repeating crossbow is connected with the crossbow arm and the arrow compartment with metal pins, respectively; Mounted above the crossbow arm, below the arrow compartment is a wooden arrow groove, into which the bolt falls into the groove when fired; The gap between it and the arrow warehouse is where the crossbow string moves, and the trailing edge of the crossbow is not engraved to hook the crossbow string during firing and connect with the arrow warehouse as a whole. The workmanship is quite ingenious and exquisite.

"How do I use it?" Qi Liang asked.

Hong Tong's heart has been rising and falling with the overturned crossbow in Qi Liang's hand, for fear that the prince will not be satisfied, so he took the crossbow in Qi Liang's hand and operated: "Yu Shizi! This crossbow is very simple to use, first push the lever forward, wait for the arrow compartment and the arrow groove integrated with it to also move forward and backward, the trailing edge of the arrow groove will automatically hook the crossbow string, and an arrow will fall into the arrow groove in the arrow compartment, and then the trigger can be fired! ”

"How many arrows can you hide in the arrow storehouse?"

"Ten crossbow arrows!"

"How long will it take to finish?"

"Ten arrows can be fired in fifteen counts!"

This repeating crossbow is simple to construct and move quickly, does nothing but aim at the target and pushes and pulls the lever quickly or slowly as the situation requires, and is easy to operate that any recruit can learn in a matter of minutes. Qi Liang imagined that a hundred crossbowmen could fire a thousand crossbow arrows in fifteen seconds, how lethal and shocking would that roaring thousand arrows be to the attacking enemy group? One is really ten!

Qi Liang said excitedly: "Let's go!" Let's go to the school field and have a test shoot! ”

Seeing that Qi Liang was happy, Hong Tong was relieved and said humbly: "The prince of the world, please!" ”

On the school field, Hongtong operated non-stop, all ten arrows were shot within ten seconds, and there were four arrows inserted in an arrow target fifty meters away, which was quite a good result, Hongtong was just a craftsman, not a professional sergeant.

Qi Liang was very satisfied with the effect of this crossbow, and it completely met the requirements he put forward at the beginning, this Hongtong is really a talent.

Qi Liang approached the arrow target and pulled out an arrow and looked at it, about 30-40 cm long, about 0.8-0.95 cm in diameter, the shaft of the arrow was made of bamboo, the arrow was made of iron, and there were no wings for stabilization.

"What is the effective range of this crossbow? How far can you shoot? ”

"Back to the world! The effective range of this crossbow is 20 zhang, and the maximum distance can be 30 zhang! Hong Tong stood on Qi Liang's left side.

Qi Liang unfortunately has a short range and cannot be used as a long-range attack, and this kind of arrow is light and thin, the penetration must be very low, and the melee effect is also limited, unless the tip of the arrow is dipped in poison, it is difficult to kill people.

"Why doesn't this bolt have wings?" Qi Liang asked as he stroked the tail of the arrow.

Hong Tong explained: "Yu Shizi! This is for the convenience of loading, and the second is for not affecting the fall and launch! ”

In any case, this was already the most advanced weapon of the era, and Qi Liang praised it and rewarded Hongtong and his team with two hundred taels of silver.

He had already figured out how to use this repeating crossbow, and ordered: "Master Hong! Click this crossbow to make 500 first! ”

Hong Tong showed embarrassment, Qi Liang frowned, and changed his words: "Three hundred can be done, at least two hundred!" "He's going to equip the Flying Leopard Group Mingwei first.

Hong Tong pondered for a moment and said carefully: "Dare to ask when the prince will want it?" ”

"Within half a month!"

Hong Tong shook his head: "Forgive the little incompetence, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete the orders of the prince!" ”

Qi Liang asked, "What?" Is this crossbow hard to make? ”

Hong Daodao: "It's not very difficult, it's just that the weapons factory in Tianshuo Mansion has not yet been built, and there are many materials and tools missing!" ”

Qi Liang thought about it and said, "Master Hong can take the order of Tianshuo Mansion and go to the workshop of the Ministry of Industry of King Zhou's Mansion to make these crossbows and arrows!" Then he grimaced his face and said in a deep voice: "However, the manufacturing process must be kept secret, if it is leaked, it will be a capital crime!" ”
