Chapter 483: First Musket Trial

In the inner room of the Yuge Courtyard, Song Zheng looked at his nose and nose, and sat on a chair like an old monk, except for the occasional sip of tea, he didn't move. This made Xiao Ying next to her feel very strange: this champion just looked at Da Ge, and after flipping through a few books, he sat there, silently, which was really a little incomprehensible.

Xiao Ying was in doubt, and a beautiful shadow appeared outside the door, which was the county lord's personal ring, named Xiao Qian. Xiao Qian has followed the county lord since she was a child, and she is much more favored than Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying hurriedly stepped out of the door, called her sister, and saluted Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian glanced inside, turned around and raised the corner of her eyes at Xiao Ying, with the meaning of inquiry.

Xiao Ying shook her head slightly.

Xiao Qianxiu frowned slightly, and whispered to herself, "It doesn't make sense, there are so many kung fu cheats, how can he ......?"

"Sister Qian, what did you say?"

"Oh, it's nothing, you wait carefully here, the county lord will come over in a moment."

Xiao Ying nodded, Xiao Qian glanced into the room again, and Fang turned to leave, but her brows furrowed even deeper.

Song Zheng was still sitting in the room, as if he was asleep. His heart was secretly racing: Fortunately, this is not the White Tiger Hall, otherwise, I will be like the leopard head Lin Chong, and I will be assigned to the army.

————

"Sister, your killing aura in the Yuge Courtyard is too heavy, and every time I come, I feel cold." While Song Zheng was pondering, a crisp voice sounded in the courtyard. Like a chirping oriole, it is pleasant to the ear.

"Well, aren't they just a few weapons, are you there? Besides, so many forbidden soldiers came with you, and they were all fast with sharp guns, so they didn't see you afraid. He didn't seem to care.

"Yes. I don't know what's going on, I don't look at those forbidden soldiers, but I think it's scary when I see your knives and guns. ”

"Didn't you also learn three moves and two styles? How can you be afraid of what I have here! Sister Princess, you don't chant Buddha every day and forget all the three moves and two styles you learned, right? ”

"Martial arts, anyway, I don't want to learn." Xiao Yunyu didn't seem to want to talk more, and quickly changed her words, "Sister Wei, that slingshot was not easy to practice last time, I fought for a long time after I went back, and my arm was planted and painful, but I still couldn't play well." Sister, what did you make up again this time? Let me see. ”

"How can you be so anxious, although the slingshot is simple, it can't be practiced in a day or two." Xiao Wei said, "In our Daqi, although this slingshot is a child's play, but if you want to practice to the fine, you can also point where to hit." By the way, have you ever heard of the Flying Dragon Garden? ”

Xiao Yun shook her head.

"The Flying Dragon Yuan is the Praetorian Guard of the Western Xia Kingdom, just like our Imperial City Division. There are many masters in this Flying Dragon Garden, who use slingshots. I heard that the slingshot is all iron skeletons, and it is also made of iron pellets, and it can make a hole when it hits a person's head. ”

"Don't be so scary. Sister Wei, anyway, this slingshot is too tiring to practice, and I don't want my mother and mother to see it, so I can only practice secretly. You see, my arms are tired and swollen. Xiao Yun rolled her sleeves up at Xiao Wei, and was so frightened that Xiao Wei grabbed her hand.

"Silly princess sister, can you pull this sleeve casually?" I can hear that this sister loves her cousin Yun very much.

"What are you afraid of, and there are no outsiders." Xiao Yun muttered, and then said in a loud voice, "What is this long and thick thing?" Is that what you call a spitting musket? ”

Spit muskets? Assault guns? Song Zheng in the house was secretly frightened. According to the official history, during the reign of Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty, a kind of "assault rifle" was invented, the barrel of the gun was sat on bamboo, and the bullets used for the gun were stones and iron nails. It's a pity that the bamboo pipe is too fragile, and it would be good if an assault gun could be used four or five times, could it be that this is what Xiao Wei invented?

Thinking of this, Song Zheng couldn't help but stand up, glanced at Xiao Ying at the door, and then came to the window, licked the window paper and looked out.

Outside the door were two maidens and several palace ladies. One is dressed in palace clothes, gorgeous and unique, and the other is short-armed and heroic. It was the princess Xiao Yun and the county lord Xiao Wei. In Xiao Yun's hand, he held a strange thing, like a bamboo pole, but the end of the bamboo pole was relatively wide, obviously thicker, and there was a small eye on it, from which a fuse more than a foot long was also followed. This style is exactly the same as what Song Zheng once saw in books - it is a assault gun.

Hey, could it be that this assault rifle was invented by Xiao Wei? Song Zheng was puzzled. The bamboo tube barely counts as the handle of the gun, and the thicker one at the end is the powder chamber. Gunpowder and iron sand are stored in the powder chamber and in the barrel of the gun, and once ignited, the iron sand will be sprayed out. It's just that the bamboo pipe is relatively fragile, and it is good to be able to use a fire assault gun four or five times. Therefore, the assault rifle is far from being a weapon, and if it can play a deterrent role, it is already good.

The only advantage of the assault rifle is that, like the early muskets, the "bullet" is not a simple bullet, but a piece of gravel, iron sand, etc., which is better and has greater lethality in close shooting. It's just that Song Zheng didn't expect that this Xiang Zheng didn't expect that this thing was actually invented by Xiao Wei first.

Speaking of the assault rifle, Xiao Wei was obviously excited, "Yes, it's the assault gun." Don't look at his inconspicuous appearance, if he is accurate, dozens of swordsmen and gunners will not be enough for him to eat. ”

"So powerful? Sister Wei, how to use this? ”

"Ha, it's easy, just light this fuse and hold the back of this gun. In a moment, you'll be amazed. "The others are broken, I tried four or five times, but this one, I tried seven or eight times, and I hit it every time, which is very powerful." ”

"Hey! It's true? Sister Wei, light the fire quickly, I'll give it a try. "I was interested.

Song Zheng looked secretly anxious behind the window: this spitting musket has been tried seven or eight times, and it has reached the limit of its lifespan, and if it tries again, it is very likely to "blow up", in case it blows up the princess, it will be troublesome.

Thinking of this, Song Zheng hurriedly drank, "Princess, county lord, slow down!" ”

The abrupt sentence startled the surrounding forbidden troops, and several forbidden soldiers hurriedly took a few steps forward and surrounded Xiao Yun at once. Xiao Yun was panicked, and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

A moment later, Song Zheng flashed out of the house.

"Who are you?" Xiao Yun was shocked.

The surrounding forbidden troops breathed a sigh of relief and clenched their fists in unison, "See General Song." "Although they are not Song Zheng's subordinates, they both belong to the forbidden army sequence, and when they see Song Zheng, the leader of the thousands of households of the Zhenzi team, they naturally want to give a salute.

"Why did you get out?" Xiao Wei glanced at Song Zheng, raised her eyebrows, and asked with the corners of her mouth curled.

Song Zheng arched his hand, "Song Zheng, the commander of the Thousand Households of the Imperial City Division, see the princess and the county lord!" ”

"You...... Are you this year's champion? Xiao Yun asked in surprise.

"Sister, this is this year's martial champion Song Zheng, who came to me early in the morning to teach me kung fu." Xiao Wei explained, turned around and said, "General Song, why did you stop the princess from testing the gun?" ”

Song Zheng was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied, "Please forgive the princess and the county lord for the sins of the subordinates, just now I accidentally heard the conversation between the two of you, and heard that this spit musket, each shot can only be used three or five times, for fear of hurting the princess and the county lord, so I opened my mouth to stop it, if the princess allowed, I am willing to preside over the gun for the princess." ”

Xiao Wei and Xiao Yun looked at each other, Xiao Yun recovered her demeanor, and said lightly, "The filial piety of the champion Lang, this princess has it, I will try, it doesn't matter." ”

Song Zheng frowned, and replied in a stiff voice, "If the princess insists on trying, it is better to put this gun on the ground, clamp it with two green bricks, and the princess is responsible for igniting it." You don't have to hold it in your hands! ”

A forbidden soldier who was responsible for protecting Xiao Yun stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, "What General Song said is extremely true, please take the princess phoenix body seriously!" ”

Xiao Wei looked at Song Zheng, then looked at the forbidden army around him, pondered for a moment, and pouted, "It's really boring, listen to you." ”

She lowered her head and whispered to Xiao Yun: "Sister, why don't you believe them first, and after this shot is fired, we will think about it." ”

Seeing that Xiao Wei seemed to be lacking in confidence, Xiao Yun also retreated a little. And then this assault rifle really hurts? Undecided, she nodded slightly.

Song Zheng immediately moved a few green bricks from the corner. Two of them clamped the assault rifles, the other was placed on top of them, one was pushed up to the bottom of the assault rifles, and the last one was placed two feet in front of the assault rifles. On the assault rifle, a long fuse, drilled out of a small hole in the "powder room", was about two feet long.

A forbidden soldier had already taken out a fire fold, swayed it in the wind a few times, lit a fire, and served it in front of Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun took the fire pleats excitedly and glanced at Song Zheng. Song Zheng nodded slightly, sending an encouraging look.

Xiao Yun took two steps forward, bowed down, and lit the fuse on the assault rifle. Watching the fuse burning, Xiao Yun's smile became even stronger.

"Quick, get out of the way!" Song Zheng shouted in a hurry.

A Gong E next to her hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her, and Xiao Yun was pulled aside all of a sudden. At this moment, sparks flew everywhere, and only a loud bang was heard, and a burst of gray smoke rose instantly.

Xiao Yun suddenly panicked, covered her eyes and ears again, and sat on the ground all of a sudden. She laughed, but when she looked down on the scene on the ground, her face suddenly turned pale.

I saw that the "powder room" where the musket was spit had completely exploded, and half of the bamboo pipe had disappeared. The whole bamboo pole was charred and blackened, giving off a mushy smell, and the muzzle of the assault rifle had been cracked, and there was still green smoke. In front of the assault rifle, the green brick had been knocked down, and it was covered with black grains of sand. From the muzzle of the gun to the blue bricks in front, the black sand was scattered all over the ground. From this point of view, although the gunpowder was "blown up", the iron sand contained in the bamboo pipe was still shot out.

Xiao Yunhua's face was pale, and she looked at the assault rifle on the ground in a daze, unable to speak for a long time. There was still a little bamboo scrap on her hair, which looked a little embarrassed. However, Song Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, judging from the effect of the explosion, if Xiao Yun held the assault gun, he would definitely be injured.

Song Zheng silently put away the green bricks in their place, and put the blown up assault rifle in his hand to inspect it for a while. Fang discarded it aside.

After a long time, Xiao Yun gave a salute, "Thank you, General Song!" The forbidden army next to him saluted. If it weren't for Song Zheng's persuasion, they wouldn't have stopped Xiao Yun from playing this novel thing. If they go on a business trip, they will be held accountable.

"This assault rifle is a good thing, but it is not very strong with bamboo pipes, and if it is replaced with iron or copper pipes, it will definitely be of great use! Speaking of which, I want to feel that the county lord has invented a sharp weapon for me. Speaking of this, Song Zheng really gave a salute to Xiao Wei.

Before he could calm down, he accepted Song Zheng's salute. ~
