Chapter 390: The hearts of the people echoed with the sound of gunfire
Adhering to the strategic contempt for the enemy and the tactical importance of the enemy, Wang Juan did not take the surprise in his eyes.
Seeing Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, who had enough to eat and drink, leave the car, Li Longji picked up a glass full of wine, raised it in front of his mouth, and asked Gao Lishi: "I always feel that Xiaobao and Juan Juan have something to hide from me, what does Lux think?" ”
"The minister thinks so." Colliers echoed.
"Hide it, just hide it, as long as I keep the northern part of Hebei Province and let me not be distracted, it will be a great achievement, if it weren't for the fact that the two of them are still young, and Xiaobao has not taken the imperial examination, I really want to put the two of them in the court."
Li Longji felt that he should have such a mind, and at the same time looked forward to Wang Juan's words becoming a reality, so that all the places on the front line of the Bohai Governor's Mansion would pay taxes.
I don't care how much I pay, I don't care how much I pay and what I don't pay are two different things, that is to recognize the status of the court or not.
Gao Lishi looked at the emperor from the side, and after thinking about it, he took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, which looked heavy, and asked people to remove the grill and gently put it on top of the small table.
"What is this?" Li Longji asked suspiciously.
"Pistol, a pistol that shoots twelve bullets in a row, Xiaobao will use it for the minister's self-defense, Your Majesty, please take a look." Gao Lishi opened the oil paper, revealing the gray gun inside, and took out two magazines from his arms for Li Longji to see.
Li Longji didn't know what this gun was, of course, he was not stupid enough to think that it was the same thing as the gun used in the army, and if it could defend Gaolis, it should be better than a sleeve arrow.
Reaching for the magazine, he touched the cold shell as he watched as Colliers wiped the oil off the strangely shaped weapon with a rag.
"Your Majesty, the magazine and pistol in your hand can only be used together, so." Gao Lishi said, picked up the other magazine, snapped it to the pistol, and handed it to Li Longji.
Holding the gun, Li Longji naturally put his index finger on the hook, turned his head to look at Gao Lishi, "How to use it?" ”
"Your Majesty, you can't use it here, it can hurt people and kill people, when you want to use it, open this safe thing, and then pull the trigger on the person who wants to attack, it is this hook, and then you can shoot the bullet out, and you can hit it twelve times in a row, and kill people within thirty steps."
Gao Lishi leaned sideways, he knew the power of this thing, and there was another one on his body, he had already tried it, and he couldn't hit it accurately, but he had a very intuitive understanding of the lethality of the bullet.
The reason why Xiaobao gave this kind of thing to the emperor is that Xiaobao has a better one, I don't know how much surprise I can see in the future?
Gao Lishi didn't know why Zhang Xiaobao suddenly took out such a powerful thing, but what he thought was that his godson must have a better one, otherwise he would definitely keep it secret.
Li Longji didn't use the insurance, he was also afraid that he would accidentally hurt himself, so he only stroked back and forth on the gun with his hand, thinking that Gao Lishi said that he would kill people within thirty steps, and he was not surprised by this, if he used a bow, he could shoot people within a hundred steps.
The main thing is that you can fight twelve times in a row, the speed is fast, if there are a hundred people, one for each person, within thirty steps, then it will not become a dead land?
Thinking like this, Li Longji couldn't help it, looked at the sky, ordered to stop the team, and walked out with Gao Lishi, naturally surrounded by a lot of people, including the ministers who came over, I don't know why the emperor stopped.
"Find a place for me to try my pistol." Li Longji instructed Gao Lishi.
The place is easy to find, divide the people, and then enclose out a place, Gao Lishi asked people to draw targets, and explained the use of pistols to Li Longji on the other hand, especially when it mentioned recoil, otherwise it would not be good to shock the emperor's wrist.
After a few targets were ready, Li Longji raised his pistol and aimed at it according to Gao Lishi's words, and glanced at Gao Lishi, "Lux will hit first." ”
Gao Lishi didn't take the gun handed by the emperor, his two hands were divided together, and a pistol was taken out of his sleeve by him, "The person behind the target dodged away." ”
There was a bang, and the people behind flashed away with the fastest movements, they knew that this thing was called a target, although they didn't see the bow and arrow, but they knew that it must be very dangerous.
The target was not placed thirty meters away, only ten meters, even so, Gao Lishi raised his hand solemnly, aimed and aim, and then snapped a shot.
A bad spot appeared on the target made of wooden boards, and a mark was left on the thick wood that stood up behind the target, and the bullet should have entered.
"That's what you shot?" Li Longji stepped forward to take a look and asked.
"Your Majesty, the minister has just gotten the pistol for a short time, so he can't hit it accurately, it's only six rings, and if you aim at a person, you may be able to touch the body, but you can't aim at the head." Gao Lishi looked very embarrassed, but his godson said that if the ten-meter target does not move, at least nine rings must be played to be qualified.
Li Longji nodded, retreated to where Fang Cai was standing, and raised his gun, "I will try it too." ”
Turn on the safe, aim with one eye, form a line at three points, snap, look at the target again, stronger than Colliers, seven rings, and then hit again until the twelve bullets in the gun are shot, the best one is eight rings, and the worst one...... Just look at the eleven holes in the target, and it's definitely not two bullets into one hole.
"Has anyone been hurt? Look at the people around you. Colliers asked nervously.
Everyone looked at it, shook their heads, no one made a sound, fortunately, it didn't seem to hurt anyone, it should have flown out from the target and shot into the wood behind.
Li Longji shook his wrist, which was numb and sore, looked at the people around him, and said, "Lux, does this need to be practiced often?" How valuable are bullets? ”
"That's how it should be, the bullets are expensive or not, the ministers don't know, Xiaobao and Juan Juan gave the ministers 500 rounds, and your majesty will send them after the fight, Your Majesty, the Khitan, Tubo and Turkic people are also watching."
Colliers replied and reminded.
"I just let them see, they don't have this kind of weapon, see if they are afraid." The reason why Li Longji came out to test the gun was to prepare to give others a dismount.
Sure enough, his approach worked, and the people around him came to the front of the wood to watch, and the bullet was embedded in it, and someone used a chisel to break the empty surrounding, and when they saw the depth of the bullet, everyone secretly took a breath, which was much more powerful than an ordinary bow and arrow.
The main thing is that the rate of fire is very fast, crackling, if any unit is ready with such a weapon, who else can fight?
Zhang Shuo picked out the still hot bullet with his hand, which looked like it had turned into an iron lump, came to Li Longji's approach, and asked, "Your Majesty, what is this?" The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry? ”
What he meant was that he didn't know that there was a weapon that could hit him continuously, and if the iron bump on his hand hit a person's body, that person would still be good?
"This is called a pistol, something that Xiaobao and Juan Juan give me to play with, come on, call Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan here." Li Longji withdrew the magazine and replaced the other one, very satisfied.
Zhang said that he actually guessed just now that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan made it, and he was angry that he didn't know, he was the prime minister, and he had never even heard of a new weapon, and Zhang Xiaobao and the two of them were too disagreeable.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were playing their respective roles to perform children's dramas for Xiaobei and others, but they were found by Luo Bin, and Xiaobei and others also followed curiously to watch.
"Xiaobao, juanjuan, here." When Gao Lishi saw the two, he hurriedly beckoned.
"Father-in-law, I don't know ...... looking for a child" Zhang Xiaobao walked over suspiciously, and when he saw the target in front of him, he understood, and tried the gun.
Li Longji handed over the gun, "Hit a dozen, take a look." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has brought it with him, and he has always carried it." Zhang Xiaobao didn't answer, he wanted to touch it from his waist, and a gun appeared in his hand, Wang Juan did the same thing, and the two of them immediately squatted and stood together, waiting for Li Longji to say that he started.
Li Longji didn't ask Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan why they brought weapons to see him, after all, the two of them were also in charge of guarding along the way, nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of crackling and non-stop, waiting for the sound to end, and then looking at the target, only the middle of the place representing the ten rings became a hole, and the surrounding nine rings were not broken.
Li Longji was stunned for a moment, then he bypassed the target to look at the wood behind him, and saw that there were two big holes in each of the two positions not far from the top and bottom of the wood, which were messy, and he didn't need to think much to know that it was not Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan who missed the bullet, but all of them pierced out of the position of the ten rings.
The two places are because Zhang Xiaobao is squatting and Wang Juan is standing, and the route where the bullets fly out is a little off.
Li Shaogu, the titular master of the Khitan who came from the Khitan, looked at the traces on the wood, and then looked at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, and finally knew what his neighbors were capable of.
If it was a fight with two people at a distance of more than a dozen steps, it was estimated that no one would be able to touch them.
"Thirty steps is feasible?" Li Longji envied Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's accuracy, and was ready to increase the difficulty.
Zhang Xiaobao nodded, thirty steps is also a hundred shots, the gun in his hand is already used to it, he and Wang Juan have already fired no less than a thousand bullets, plus the two of them were very familiar with each other before, and they have already honed it.
The new target was placed thirty steps away, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan changed the magazine again, glanced at each other Zhang Xiaobao hit first, the first sound just sounded, and Wang Juan also fired here.
The rhythm of the two people is very stable, the rate of fire is also fast, almost blink a few times, a burst of movement passed, and then look at the target, this time it was not the position of the ten rings that was hit, but from the next ring, pulled horizontally, from this end to the other, the whole target swayed twice, and suddenly fell down.
If Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan saw it at that time, they would definitely be frightened, and the two people used two pistols to shoot the effect of automatic rifle strafing, twenty-four bullets, pulled from one end to the other, and the same as the box cannon swinging horizontally many years ago, the person who hit the two box guns could shoot out the effect of strafing.
Although others don't know what the strafing effect is, they understand that it is not that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan hit inaccurately, and they did not hit all on the ten rings, but that they were deliberately hit, so that they hit one by one horizontally, which is not worse than the ten rings.
"Okay, be rewarded." Li Longji was overjoyed, and looking at the frightened and shocked eyes of the people sent by other countries around him, he knew that they would be more honest, and whoever was not honest would send such troops over.
The person who is most afraid is actually Li Shaogu, his Khitan is too close to Jili Prefecture, who knows how many pistols Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan will equip the army there.
Don't look at the distance of the shot, but when you really fight, unless you run away after a fight, who can stand it when you are in close combat, and when there are still about twenty paces away, a group of people with pistols suddenly appear on the other side and attack their side.
Isn't it invincible to fight in close combat?
He was right, when he fought with a bayonet, it would be much safer to have a pistol in hand.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to be rewarded, it's just a small skill, and you can succeed with more practice." Zhang Xiaobao said modestly.
"Zhang Tingshi is right, the two ministers are indeed more trained and refined, and when they go back, the ministers will definitely form a pistol battalion of 1,000 people to protect the family and defend the country and expand the territory." Wang Juan also followed modestly, the most important thing was the pistol battalion of 1,000 people.
Li Shaogu shuddered when he heard it, what did Wang Juan want to do? 1,000 people, but also expand the territory, in which direction? Is your own Khitan now considered to have been expanded?
Li Longji knew that it was impossible for Wang Juan to get a pistol battalion of 1,000 people, this gun was made by Seiko at a glance, and it was not enough to have a few hundred guns, and to equip a thousand people was hundreds of thousands, and it still did not completely belong to their own troops, and they were not stupid.
To say this is to scare people, and it seems that they are all scared.
"I promised to send another 10,000 to me." Li Longji said cooperatively, giving people the feeling that the Zhang and Wang families could take out a lot of pistols at any time and didn't need money.
Others have never even touched it, where do you know the cost of the pistol, it feels like a kitchen knife, you can have it if you want to.
"Uncle Emperor, I'm ...... The ministers are also accurate. Xiaobei, who loves to join in the fun and is also the most lively, jumped out and also took out a gun, which looked more beautiful than the one in Li Longji's hand.
Li Longji was startled, afraid that Xiaobei's gun would suddenly hurt someone, be careful, no, so it is impossible for Xiaobei's gun to hold it so easily, and he still wants to lift it flat?
"Zhang Qing is also there? Let me see the gun in Qing's hand. Li Longji didn't know why he liked Xiaobei, as long as he saw Xiaobei, he was happy.
"Well, give, the minister brought bullets to the emperor's uncle, and the minister brought a lot of bullets." Xiaobei handed the gun over first, and took out a small handful of wooden balls from his clothes pocket, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn't dare to use balls for them, the power of the BB gun is not small, and it can blind people when it hits the eyes, usually Xiaobei and others need to wear helmets when they fight.
As soon as Li Longji took the gun, he knew that it was made of wood, rosewood, which was relatively strong, and he hit it symbolically twice, and found that the bullet was not close, so he nodded, touched Xiaobei's head, and said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan: "Go back with me." ”
A group of people dispersed, and the team continued to move forward, but each had a different feeling in their hearts.
The people of the Tang Dynasty are proud, and the people of Khitan, Tubo, Turkic, Silla, *** and other countries are worried, compared to Li Shaogu's fear, the people from Tubo are not easy.
The people at the top of Tubo knew why their country couldn't slow down at this time, all because of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, Wang Juan had no morale in his own country, Zhang Xiaobao was even more ruthless, and now he has seen the power of another kind of war.
It seems that you have to send someone back as soon as possible and tell the people in the country to be honest, especially in the east of Jinchuan, you must not provoke it, otherwise Wang Juan will be happy and take someone to kill him, who can withstand it? It's good enough when you don't have a pistol.
"Hand over a hundred, and I'll use them to protect them." As soon as Li Longji returned to the car with Zhang Xiaobao and others, he couldn't wait to make demands on Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
Xiaobei and the others stayed aside very honestly, fortunately, the car was big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't fit.
Since Zhang Xiaobao has taken it out, he will naturally prepare it for Li Longji, the second generation of products can already be produced, and the third generation is also being studied, so the first generation does not need to continue to keep it secret, otherwise it will be kept secret for a long time, and then let Li Longji know, it is likely that the game will not continue, and life will not seem too boring?
promised: "When I return to the capital, the minister will send one hundred and fifty pistols and thirty thousand rounds of ammunition, Your Majesty, this is not a small amount of money?" A bullet is more than fifty cents, and a gun. ”
Li Longji didn't pay attention to Zhang Xiaobao's words very cooperatively, but hugged Xiaobei in his arms and asked: "Xiaobei, tell the emperor's uncle, what is the first sentence of Guan Ju in the Book of Poetry?" ”
"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Xiaobei replied very happily, I don't know the specific meaning, I memorized it, and if I don't memorize it to listen to the story, I should be in trouble.
"Yes, I named you Tong Zhilang, Xiaohai, come here, I ask you, the rope is ten feet long, around the tree, more than four feet in two weeks, more than one foot in three weeks, ask the tree for a week long."
Li Longji asked Zhang Xiaohai again.
Xiaohai didn't want to answer, it was too simple, but he had to say, "Three feet." ”
"Okay, I also named you Tongzhilang, Xiaoyuan, and it is very fun to learn and learn...... What is the meaning. Li Longji continued to ask.
"It's just that when I study, I often ...... "Little and far-reaching, very happy."
"Xiaozhu, I ask you ......"
One question and one answer, a group of little guys were all promoted, and the official name was the same, Tong Zhilang, from the original seven-rank scattered official to the sixth-grade scattered official.
"Your Majesty, the minister suddenly thought that if you want people to shoot more accurately, you need a lot of bullets, and the minister is going to take out 90,000 rounds of ammunition for His Majesty's escort practice, and add fifty more pistols, each with two guns, after hard training, you can become like the minister and the juanjuan, with two guns to shoot continuously."
Zhang Xiaobao looked like an afterthought, and he was very sincere in helping Li Longji form a pistol escort team, not mentioning that he spent a lot of money, and took out a lot of bullets and guns.
Gao Lishi didn't say anything next to him, he knew that even if the emperor didn't promote Xiaobei and others, if he wanted it, Xiaobao and Juan Juan would give it, but it wouldn't be fun to do that, and he didn't know why the emperor treated Xiaobao and Juan differently than others, and he had to do this kind of boring game for others to watch.
Take advantage of a little advantage, or suffer a little loss, you have to take care of it, and then prepare to find it back next time, and seal a bunch of six-grade officials, it feels like you have to give more money, in fact, the money that Zhang and Wang take out every year for disaster relief is not enough even if it is a family's ten years of money.
Hey, how did the emperor look like children when he met Xiaobao and Juan Juan.
