At present, the bird gunners of the imperial camp rely on this kind of sophisticated firearms, and they can smash most of the targets sixty steps away, according to the requirements of the Qi family's army, they can be regarded as exquisite skills, of course, Zhu Youhua knows that the new army can get these results, all after countless live ammunition.

In Zhu Youhua's view, the Ming Dynasty did not lose because of whether the weapons and equipment were advanced, but because there were more political factors in all aspects. Moreover, the warlordization of various towns in the late Ming Dynasty, coupled with poor logistical corruption, greatly affected the promotion of all kinds of advanced firearms.

Firearms troops require systematic and rigorous training, and all aspects of support are complex issues. And the cold weapon army, casually pull some strong men, give swords, guns and sticks, you can fight, and you can boast to the outside that you have tens of thousands of male soldiers, occupying an important position in the eyes of the imperial court, but in fact, the combat power is at the level of the five scum of war. The so-called 100,000 male soldiers are no more than a few thousand well-trained firearms troops with sophisticated artillery and firearms.

More than 10 artillery pieces were placed in the wide shooting range, and each type of artillery was set up with a temporary commander, and after receiving the emperor's order to watch the gunners' drills, dozens of gunners were assembled and immediately started, and Liu Zhaoji, the chief instructor, concurrently served as an officer of the artillery team, and began to clean up the barrels of the guns and prepare for the firing exercises.

Five or six gunner apprentices were arranged for each artillery, and the gunners personally commanded the firing of the guns, and after two rounds of dozens of cannons, many of them hit the target, which made Zhu Youhua quite pleased.

All kinds of artillery in the Ming Dynasty have design drawings, how much is the length of the gun, how much is the thickness of the tube, there are strict standard sizes, want to be shoddy, it is not easy to cut corners, unlike the musket manufacturing can be arbitrary, so the quality of all kinds of artillery in the Ming Dynasty is barely possible.

However, the artillery at this time is not strictly standardized after all, the same type of gun, the inner diameter of the gun chamber is difficult to be consistent, and the difference between the shell and the barrel is inevitable.

Moreover, the artillery of the Ming Dynasty has no ruler, not even basic ranging tools, and the gunners shoot at direct distances relying on their many years of experience in operating the gun, and skilled gunners are rare. The artillery life at this time is only a few hundred shells, and to train a group of qualified gunners, many cannons will have to be scrapped, and it will take a long time, perhaps as high as several years, which is really unimaginable.

It seems that it is necessary to send henchmen to Macao to hire a group of Portuguese artillerymen, who know how to measure the distance with the general rules, and can also specify the size of each type of cannon, so as to greatly reduce the time and cost of training qualified gunners.

After watching the gunners maneuver, Zhu Youhua left the barracks, and under the secret escort of dozens of guards, he returned to the palace along the lively and bustling streets.

The weather was sunny. Warm sunlight shone obliquely from the clear blue sky, casting on the spacious, bluestone pavement, on the heads and shoulders of pedestrians.

On both sides of the street are some dense shops, the eaves are not high, the façade is quite wide, and the signboards with the words "old silk shop", "net towel hair", "Sichuan and Guangzhou groceries", "Northwest leather goods for sale", "Western fresh shellfish goods", "Baochang No. Tongshang silver shop" and so on are all dazzling.

On the streets, people in sedan chairs, donkey spoons, and on foot are bustling with people; Merchants from all over the world gathered in the official corridor, shouting and bargaining.

In the tea house with lanterns hanging in front of the door and offering seasonal flowers, the seats are full and business is booming; The restaurant is full of people, singing and singing, and the wind is wafting with the sound of laughter and the tempting aroma of wine and food......

Although there are "Jianyu" in the north and "Liukou" in the south, the situation of the country is chaotic day by day; The provinces in the south of the Yangtze River have been plagued by disasters year after year, and news such as "mourning all over the wilderness" and "starvation carrying the road" have been constantly heard; Moreover, the price of rice in Nanjing has also risen to three taels and six coins of silver and one stone, which is only seen since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

However, none of this seems to have cast a shadow on the largest metropolis in the south. It's still so radiant, smiling, and drunk......

In fact, disturbing shadows are not without them - there has been a marked increase in the number of homeless beggars on the streets, and there is a tendency to increase them; In the rice shop, barley and buckwheat, which were rarely sold in the past, have suddenly become popular goods, and 5,000 yuan a stone are still in short supply;

At the banquet, those high-rollers who laughed and drank would be unhappy because of a sudden lament...... None of this, however, seems to be harmless.

Whether it is "Jianyu" or "Liukou", even if it is just their shadow, they have never appeared under the city of Nanjing. This shows that Nanjing is reliable and safe, and even if it is really dangerous, it is still far away......

Zhu Youhua and Tian Cheng, the personal attendant, walked down the street, and there were some young and strong men around the two, both bright and covert, and they were guarded by them.

Walking and walking, I suddenly encountered a riot of a beggar escaping, when a thin little beggar ran in the direction of Zhu Youhua, Zhu Youhua suddenly felt that there was a person in front of him who was about to fall, he took a step back, the person in front of him did not stand firmly, and his body fell backwards, Zhu Youhua subconsciously stepped forward to help him, and the person was crooked in Zhu Youhua's arms, Zhu Youhua couldn't help but be surprised, and he was even more surprised when he looked at it.

It turned out that the girl who fell in her arms was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, very beautiful, with a melon seed face, red cheeks and snow, thick eyebrows, and a pair of big and round eyes under the eyebrows.

At this time, the girl was so ashamed that her face was flushed, she stood up, and saw an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy standing in front of her, dressed in a graceful manner, a talent, and she was even more ashamed, and hurriedly bowed slightly: "The little girl was just squeezed by someone, and she offended the son, and the little girl apologized." ”

Zhu Youhua was also a little embarrassed, blushing and smiling: "It's nothing, what a person." ”

A girl dressed as a maid hurriedly stepped forward to help the girl and said, "Miss, have you touched it?" Looking back, Zhu Youhua smiled slightly, and then slowly walked away.

Zhu Youhua only saw a graceful back, and suddenly, as soon as the girl turned around, she smiled at him shyly, Zhu Youhua's heart moved suddenly, this time her eyes were really charming and beautiful.

After returning to the palace, Zhu Youhua was still in a trance, and from time to time he thought of the beauty who fell in his arms, especially the retrospective eye, which kept him reminiscent.
