Chapter 334: Invitation to Merit

Wearing two layers of heavy armor, the male sheep looks like a huge stupid bear. Although the father-in-law is old, his skills are not weaker than the young man. Wearing two layers of heavy armor, he still moves faster than ordinary people.

Yan Ming did not use a long-barreled flintlock pistol, but chose to use a pistol given to Liu Che. After all, the lethality of the pistol is smaller, and the safety factor is a little higher.

Yan Ming finished loading, picked up the pistol and said to his father-in-law with a smile: "Old man, you taught me kung fu, speaking of which you are my teacher, and now I shoot at the teacher, is it a big rebellion?" ”

Father-in-law Yang touched his bare chin, as if he had a beard, and laughed: "Boy, if you can't beat the old man today, it's your big rebellion." ”

Everyone burst out laughing.

Especially some old ministers, they have seen the performance of Yang Gonggong in the military formation, even if the four directions are full of arrows, he is like a swimming fish, and he has never been hit by an arrow.

Liu Che had also heard about the deeds of the Yang Gonggong, and now he wanted to see if Yan Ming's flintlock pistol could hit the Yang Gonggong.

"Teacher, you're ready, before you shoot, I'll say I'm going to shoot you!" Yan Ming loaded the ammunition, weighed the pistol, and said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, you want to lie to the old man, is the old man a three-year-old child?" The father-in-law said angrily.

"Okay, teacher, I'm going to hit you in the chest." Yan Ming picked up the pistol, aimed at the chest of the father-in-law, and said.

The chest is the thickest place for heavy armor, and only when it hits here, Yan Ming can rest assured. Two layers of heavy armor should be able to protect against lead bullets. However, the iron-smelting technology of heavy armor is average, and Yan Ming does not dare to guarantee it.

The gun was aimed at the breastplate of the father-in-law, and the father-in-law roared, as if to cheer himself up.

With a loud roar from the father-in-law, Yan Ming pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The gun rang out, and the body of the father-in-law was crooked one by one, and the whole person seemed to be stupid.

There was a big depression in his breastplate, the first layer of cuirass had been pierced, and the heat generated by the instantaneous work of the buckshot almost made the sheep's clothes burn for kilometers.

Fortunately, this era is all cotton and linen materials, and there are no such petroleum products, otherwise the skin of the sheep will be affected.

"What's the situation?" Although the lead bullet did not penetrate, two layers of heavy armor, but the entire heavy armor was deformed, and the powerful energy made the body and bones of the sheep father extremely uncomfortable, just now he didn't even see the shadow of the lead bullet, and he was shot inexplicably.

This time, everyone was surprised.

The power of the flintlock pistol was more powerful than all the weapons they had ever seen, and this strength made even a warrior like Yang Gonggong feel a trace of despair.

"Is this your self-defense weapon for me?" Liu Che finally paid attention to the importance of this flintlock pistol.

Yan Ming nodded and said, "The minister has built two such flintlock pistols, one for Your Majesty and one for General Wei Qing. ”

Liu Che nodded and said, "Okay, very good." In fact, Wei Qing needs this kind of thing more than me. Isn't your long-pipe more powerful? ”

Yan Ming nodded and said, "The minister is not exaggerating. This long-barreled flintlock pistol not only has a long range, but also has a high accuracy. If the monoculars given to His Majesty are mounted on this gun, they can be adjusted to accurately shoot the enemy from a distance of one mile. ”

"Try, have to try. Go and fetch my telescope, and go quickly. Liu Che roared.

Hun ran out in a puff of smoke.

Yan Ming said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this matter of installing a scope is quite troublesome, and it can't be done in a moment." Debugging required. If Your Majesty is in a hurry, we can try the range of this thing. ”

"Good, good, it's also great to try the range." Liu Che was anxious to see this artifact. It's exciting to think that this kind of thing can shoot an enemy leader from hundreds of paces away.

Yan Ming looked around, saw a red wall in the distance, and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the red wall over there is the farthest away, so the minister will give it to Your Majesty." ”

"Good!"

With Liu Che's permission, Yan Ming raised the flintlock pistol in his hand, aimed at the gun opposite, and pulled the trigger.

As the gunshots rang out, there was a cracking sound on the opposite wall, with debris splashing and smoke rising slightly.

"I couldn't react at close range, but I hit the target so quickly so far away. There's no way to avoid this kind of thing! Father-in-law Yang said with a sigh.

This is the feeling in the hearts of all people at this time.

In the sound of arch guards, everyone took Liu Che as the center and Yan Ming as the second center, and returned to the main hall of Weiyang Palace.

Everyone praised Yan Ming, and then said how His Majesty the Emperor was far-sighted, how wise he was like a torch, and after singing praises of virtue, Liu Che signaled that they could step down.

In the main hall, Liu Che and Yan Ming were left again.

"Dead monkey, tell me about the two wars at the border, how good it would be if I went to the scene in person." Liu Che showed a look of yearning.

His age is not much different from Wei Qing and Yan Ming, and in Liu Che's heart, he feels that Wei Qing and Yan Ming's intelligence and leadership ability are inferior to him. If two people can do it, then he can do it at the border.

In other words, Liu Che is also looking for a sense of substitution.

After Yan Ming explained the two wars in detail, Liu Che silently calculated for a while, sighed and said: "The two wars relied on the dead monkey and your advanced weapons, and now it seems that the most important thing is that the advanced weapons are." Once advanced to a certain level, there is no need for strategy, just fight through. ”

Yan Ming stuck out his tongue, this Liu Che is indeed extraordinary. Saw the essence of war.

In the era of cold weapon warfare, strategy and tactics are very important. However, in the era of nuclear warfare in later generations, it was a question of technological advancement.

Of course, this is not to say that strategy and tactics are not important, but that in the light of advanced weapons, the influence of strategy and tactics is much smaller.

Yan Ming's military crossbows, flintlock pistols, and even fire and thunder are all advanced things.

These things that will not be in the flow of later generations are more than enough to deal with the Xiongnu.

"This time I came back, not only to show His Majesty this flintlock pistol. I also brought a merit book to His Majesty. Yan Ming said, he walked to the dragon case, pulled out the music that had been placed on it, put it in front of Liu Che, and said, "This time, there are many people who have made meritorious contributions. The ministers have reported to His Majesty one by one. ”

Liu Che didn't look at it, and said: "Reward, my Han military achievements are the heaviest, and the rewards and punishments are clear." ”

Yan Ming smacked his lips and said, "Your Majesty, the merit book brought by the minister this time is not just a military merit. There are also some other people, and the ministers are also cheeky to beg His Majesty to give them a little reward! ”

Liu Che was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Who did you kid invite credit to?" ”

Yan Ming raised his head and said with a straight face: "To those craftsmen who work hard for the Han." ”
