Chapter 332: Chang'an Xing
But before leaving, Yan Ming went to see Wei Qing first. Tell him to use fire and thunder when necessary, and that the Huns must not be allowed to enter the clouds.
Now the city in the clouds is in full swing construction. If something goes wrong, it's a wasted effort. Only a famous general like Wei Qing can reassure Yan Ming.
When Yan Ming delivered the flintlock pistol to Wei Qing's eyes, Wei Qing's eyes lit up, picked up the most primitive pistol, and looked at it over and over.
"The effective range of this gun is about twenty to thirty paces. The advantage is that within this distance, as long as you shoot and shoot accurately, the gods can't dodge. Yan Ming said.
In this era, all cold weapons, whether they are bows and arrows, crossbow arrows or hidden weapons, as long as people with good skills can dodge them.
But the bullets excited by the guns are impossible to dodge.
Wei Qing believed Yan Ming because he had seen a flintlock pistol. With a lightning bolt-like rate of fire, it can kill people almost instantaneously, and it is impossible to dodge.
Before Yan Ming left, Da Lao Chen finally created another barrel.
Yan Ming decided to delay for a day and assemble the other parts that had been prepared a long time ago. After teaching, experiments were conducted.
During the experiment, Yan Ming was surprised to find that the range of this new flintlock pistol was much longer than that of the first gun. The accuracy is also much higher.
"Rifling? It must be more delicately rifled! Yan Ming reacted and immediately called Elder Chen.
Elder Chen looked complacent, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, one thing must be more and more refined." If our eldest Chen can't be more and more refined, how can he be worthy of the promise that Hou Ye gave us? ”
Yan Ming looked at Da Lao Chen with a smile and scolded: "You just fucking work hard, you don't have to remind me in such a different way, I will also repay your credit." It's already written in the cantata. ”
Elder Chen smiled and said no more.
Yan Ming left Wei Qing with a new, long-range gun, and loaded the scope onto the new gun.
What works well should be left on the battlefield. If it weren't for Liu Che who wanted to see it, Yan Ming wouldn't want to bring the flintlock pistol back.
This time when I went back, Yan Ming was followed by Yanran, Chengxin, and Dajie monks.
Wei Qing wanted to send a guard to send Yan Ming, but Yan Ming refused.
As long as he had Lou Xiaowu and other five masters in the army, the rest stayed in Cloud City, ready to deal with the attack of the Huns at any time.
Along the way, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and after two days, he was close to the boundary of Chang'an.
Passing through Maolingyi in the middle, Yanran returned directly to the Yan family in Maoling with Chengxin. After being away for so long, she also misses her children.
Yan Ming went directly to Chang'an, after all, the emperor was still waiting there.
Chang'an City is still the same, and the Weicheng Gate is still like the old man, standing there, as if welcoming the return of Yan Ming, the old man.
After entering the Weicheng Gate, passing through the East Market, and hurriedly glancing at the Drunken Immortal Tower, Yan Ming entered the Weiyang Palace.
Li Guang has been transferred to the border pass, and Gongsun Ao replaced Li Guang and became the guard of Weiyang Palace.
Seeing his brother returning, Gongsun Ao didn't say much, but hugged Yan Ming deeply, and then said: "Fourth brother, what you and your third brother did at the border pass, the capital has spread. There are good and bad things. However, after the old queen mother expressed her attitude, all dissent disappeared. Come in, the emperor said that you will arrive in these two days, no matter when you come, go directly to the palace. ”
Yan Ming didn't say anything to Gongsun Aoduo, and walked into Weiyang Palace.
Familiar palaces, familiar cloisters and roads. Yan Ming was very emotional.
As soon as he entered Chang'an, Yan Ming felt that he was a human being in two lives. The prosperity of Chang'an and the downfall and sorrow of Yundale form a stark contrast.
The slowness and comfort of the pedestrians on the streets of Chang'an City and the panic of the people in Cloudsdale City have also become a stark contrast.
Yan Ming sighed in his heart, the big man in his mind is not like this.
Lou Xiaowu in the back followed Yan Ming closely with a guard holding a flintlock pistol and the flintlock pistol, but he didn't understand why Hou Ye's hand was clenched tightly, could it be that he wanted to put a gun in the palace?
"Maoling Hou Yanming has arrived!"
Yan Ming had just come to the steps outside the main hall, and Hun Xuan, who was guarding the entrance of the hall, was excited to announce loudly when he saw him.
"Let him in." Liu Che's voice had already come out of the hall.
Hearing Liu Che's familiar voice, Yan Ming showed a smile on his face, turned around and picked up the delicate box from Lou Xiaowu's hand, and strode towards the main hall of Weiyang Palace.
Walking directly into the temple gate, I saw many familiar faces on the main hall.
Seeing Yan Ming's return, all the people looked over with a smile, and at this moment, Yan Ming seemed to be a general who had returned from a victorious battle.
Lou Xiaowu walked up to the hall for the first time, and in the face of so many ministers and dignitaries, he instantly felt that his legs were a little trembling. I couldn't help but raise the gun in my hand slightly upward.
"This thing, is that the flintlock pistol you mentioned in your recital?" Liu Che stood up from the dragon chair and pointed to the flintlock pistol in Lou Xiaowu's hand and said.
Yan Ming nodded, raised the brocade box in his hand upwards and said, "In addition to this flintlock pistol, the minister has also prepared a new gift for His Majesty!" ”
Liu Che saw the brocade box in Yan Ming's hand and said with a smile: "Hurry up and bring it to me." ”
The attendant on the side was just about to come over to pick it up, but Liu Che waved his hand and said, "Let him bring it himself." ”
The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty instantly looked at Yan Ming with envy.
This kind of honor of directly dedicating things to the emperor, how many of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military can have?
Yan Ming smiled slightly, walked to Liu Che's side calmly, and opened the delicate brocade box in his hand, revealing a delicate flintlock pistol inside.
"What is this?" When Liu Che saw this thing, he immediately reached out and picked it up.
It's just that he has never seen such a thing, and he doesn't know that it is also a weapon, but it is actually holding the muzzle of a flintlock pistol, and the handle of the gun is facing outward.
Seeing this, Yan Ming immediately took off the gun in Liu Che's hand and said, "Your Majesty, this thing is not taken like this, the minister will demonstrate it to Your Majesty." ”
Liu Che had a deep curiosity in his eyes, and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty also looked at the flintlock pistol in Yan Ming's hand.
Yan Ming took the pistol in his hand and gave it to Liu Che correctly.
Liu Che took it at this time, held it in his hand, weighed it slightly and said, "This thing is good, it is just right to hold it in your hand." ”
Yan Ming broke the flintlock pistol and asked Liu Che to try to hook the hook.
There was a "snap" sound, and the firing pin fell suddenly, making a soft sound.
"That's it?" Liu Che felt no surprise and was slightly disappointed.
"Of course it's not like that, you have to load up your ammo. The civil and military forces of the whole dynasty are all here, and it is not safe, so there is no ammunition. Yan Ming said.
