Although the concept is different, Zhu Youzhen did not embarrass the shopkeeper.

As a factory director, forget it for the time being.

Fortunately, the scale of the woolen mill is not large, and the shopkeeper is still competent enough to manage this kind of small workshop, and it is not in vain that Zhu Youzhen dug him in the first place.

After a few months of operation, the mill is on the right track.

Sweaters produced by woollen mills are also available in late autumn.

Sweaters quickly became popular with their warmth performance far exceeding that of jackets and prices far lower than leather jackets. There is a tendency for supply to exceed demand.

As for the first batch of woolen fabrics produced by the woolen mills, they have just been put on the market, and the reaction is not yet known.

However, with the low price set by Zhu Youzhen, there is no problem in opening the market, and he will definitely be able to stand in the market in the future.

There is an urgent need for woollen mills to expand production.

The source of raw wool, Zhu Youjian has to consider in advance, which is the biggest shortcoming of the woolen mill.

"Ding", there was a clear sound in my head, God finished upgrading, and the familiar blue light interface calmly unfolded in my mind.

Without hesitation, Zhu Youzhen entered the interface as soon as possible.

As expected, the system has not changed much, but on the basis of the original, a new region has been lit up.

Ships of the third class.

Desperately suppressing his excitement, Zhu Youzhen went straight to the supporting accessories area in the third-class ship.

Zhu Youzhen forcibly suppressed the violent heartbeat, and almost trembled all over his body to click on the matching accessories area.

At this stage, there is nothing in this area, which helps him even more.

The area opened silently, and Zhu Youzhen saw at a glance the king of war with different regulations.

Tears welled up in an instant, and this was the most useful thing for him.

What weapon is the most important in modern warfare?

Artillery.

There is no doubt that only artillery, known as the king of war, is worthy of the most important three words.

Zhu Youzhen has always believed that the Ming Dynasty does not need heavy artillery at this stage.

What the Ming Dynasty urgently needed at this stage was a portable artillery that could accompany the infantry in synchronous advances.

It does not need much caliber and range, it only needs to be able to suppress enemy archers from a distance and disrupt the enemy's offensive staging areas.

That's right.

Zhu Youzhen firmly believes that what the Ming Dynasty needs is a light artillery specifically aimed at the Houjin Tartars.

Da Ming seems to have entered a big misunderstanding in his understanding of artillery.

Obviously, he always lost field battles (he lost several battles), but he did not develop field-specific, portable and portable portable artillery.

Obviously, the city defense is worry-free, and there is no city in the entire Liaodong that was captured by the Houjin (the city occupied by the Houjin either relied on internal response, or was given up by the Ming Dynasty itself), but it was desperately casting a large number of heavy artillery that could only be used for defending and besieging the city.

The civil officials of the Ming Dynasty were in power and did not understand military affairs, and the deviation caused to the battlefield was too great.

In fact, the military configuration of the Ming Dynasty is very close to that of the modern army.

The Ming Dynasty was also a medium-range strike force based on hand-to-hand combat with cold weapons, covering arquebuses. Long-range strikes also relied on artillery.

It's just that the heavy artillery of the Ming Dynasty is too cumbersome and quite inconvenient to transport. Light artillery also has too short a range and is too powerful. The artillery in service in all respects is difficult to adapt to the needs of field operations.

In Zhu Youzhen's vision, his future army is the kind he remembered in his previous life: spears as barriers, artillery as long-range strike forces, and muskets as medium-range main output.

First use firearms to disarm the opponent, and then rely on the spear array to clear the remnants of the enemy.

This is what he remembers to be the standard tactics of modern armies.

Musket, yes, I also need a musket with a little more armor-piercing power.

Thinking of the battle of Salhu described by Zhang Yunyi, Zhu Youzhen determined what equipment he really needed.

An armor-piercing musket and a light gun strong enough to overwhelm the archers.

As long as these two weapons are developed, supplemented by a cadet team-style queue, it will be enough to suppress the Houjin Tartars.

Victory is expected.

Zhu Youzhen excitedly looked for the equipment he needed in the accessories area.

Soon, a tunnel-fired musket appeared in front of his eyes.

This musket gun is 1.3 meters long, with a barrel length of 1 meter and an inner diameter of 15 mm. With a 22-gram projectile, a standard charge of 19 grams, tunnel fire. Redeem 10 points and complete 20 points.

This short-barreled musket has a range of 250 meters and an effective range of 150 meters.

What attracted Zhu Youzhen the most about this musket was its excitation device. Probably because this is a marine musket, this tunnel pistol is also equipped with a tank cover that is windproof and waterproof. Only when the gun is fired, the hammer falls, and the pool lid will be opened in tandem.

Zhang Yunyi's story of the Battle of Salhu, every detail of which Zhu Youzhen firmly remembered.

He remembered that Zhang Yunyi had complained that the east wind was too strong, and the ignition powder of many muskets was blown away, which would cause the muskets to fail to fire.

The structure of this tunnel gun can effectively avoid that situation. The effective range is also enough to use, but the armor-piercing effect is not clear, which makes Zhu Youzhen a little worried.

After all, it is a boat gun.

The crew rarely wore armor, and boat guns generally did not consider the issue of armor piercing.

Whatever, draw a picture first, and try to make two.

If it can be built, this tunnel device alone is enough to pay back the fare.

Zhu Youzhen happily drew the drawings of the musket.

With his current level of drawing, it is already very easy to draw such a picture.

It didn't take much time for the diagram to be drawn.

Zhu Youzhen stared at the musket drawings, but muttered in his heart.

This musket is no better than other weapons, and it is quite a taboo to develop this kind of weapon privately!

But the drawings have been drawn, and if he doesn't make two real things, he is really a little itchy.

No matter what, just give this drawing to the eldest brother Zhu Youxiao!

Let's see if we can make it.

Although Daming has a professional musket workshop, which can cross from arquebuses to tunnel guns, after all, there are still a lot of technical problems that need to be overcome by craftsmen little by little.

After making up his mind, Zhu Youzhen carefully put away the drawings.

Thinking of the taboo, he had temporarily lost interest in artillery.

He's a goddamn vassal king.

Even if a suitable artillery piece is found, he doesn't dare to take it out?

Muskets are nothing, and the imperial court may not value them too much.

Artillery, that is the lifeblood of the imperial court.

Look at the title of that heavy artillery, it's either this general or that general.

What is a general?

The general was a high-ranking general of the Ming Dynasty.

In the Ming Dynasty, only the chief military officer with the general seal letter was the real general.

There are few real generals, and there are few in the Ming Dynasty.

If Zhu Youzhen really took out the fire ** paper, even if Zhu Youxiao spoiled him again, it is estimated that Wei Zhongxian would stare at him with wide eyes.

Then he won't want to do things quietly in the future.

To be honest, Zhu Youzhen took out the musket drawings and took a big risk.

For a while, Zhu Youzhen was a little interested.

As long as you don't get to that position, you will inevitably be constrained.

Perhaps, though, to get into that position, there will be more restraints.

Just look at the performance of the eldest brother Zhu Youxiao, that position is really not easy to do, there are few worry-free things, and there are a lot of bad things.

"Thinking too much, boy." Zhu Youzhen patted his face and took his thoughts back. "Let's solve the problem of the musket first, and then talk about anything else."
