Chapter 310: The Future Belongs to Firearms
When the box was opened, there were several objects made of brass lying quietly.
It was these objects that made Fu Renjian's heart set off a joy that was almost crazy. In the battle with the Sichuan Army, he had witnessed the majesty of this thing on the battlefield countless times, and this time it was the first time he really got close.
Artillery, in the box turned out to be an extraordinarily large caliber artillery.
Fu Renjian saw with sharp eyes that there was a letter lying in the box. Unwrap the seal, take out the neatly folded rice paper inside, unfold it and take a closer look, there are six square fonts on the top and a line of small block letters on the bottom.
"Bureau-made, artillery."
"There are three more suitable shells in the box."
Bypassing the slightly hideous cannon body, I really saw three balls at the bottom of the box.
It seems that God blesses Qingguo, and Fu Renjian was still worried just now, and the production of the round ball that flew from the sky that day was also a big problem. Now these two problems can be solved in this box.
Fu Renjian even thought in his heart that if he could move this box of things back to Qingguo with the previous muskets, and then use Qingguo's skilled craftsmen to strengthen the national strength, he might be able to use firearms to overwhelm Daheng in the future.
However, as soon as this idea appeared, it was stifled by himself.
"General, this thing is precious?"
Although the general who sent the thing couldn't recognize it, after Fu Ren's expression, he could still know the joy in his heart at this moment.
Fu Renjian smiled after a long time and said, "Let's go, we will be in the camp and let Liu Shuai see this thing." I'll tell you the truth, you've done a great job this time! ”

Some people are happy and some are worried, Chen Baichuan let go of the fingers that were pinching Wu Datou's neck, after all, he would not really be ruthless, and his fingers were really sore after gesticulating there for a long time.
After a deep sigh, Master Chen patted his ass and left.
Behind him, Chu Hui gestured his fist at Wu Datou, and left with Chen Baichuan's footsteps.
The two followed one after the other into the county office.
Chen Baichuan knew that there was someone behind him, so his pace slowed down, and he asked directly without looking back, "Why are you keeping up?" ”
Chu Hui touched his nose and said, "There is one thing in the last general's heart that I really can't understand. ”
Chen Baichuan completely settled his steps, he stood in place, and his back looked a little tired at this moment. What's wrong with Lord Chen, who is usually vigorous and confident, Chu Hui's doubts in his heart are even deeper.
"I told you before that Qingjun may have developed gunpowder. Now, the two weapons of muskets and artillery have fallen into their hands one after another, and if they are allowed to develop exactly the same finished product, this advantage of our Chen Guo will be completely nullified. ”
"How is that possible?" Chu Hui was deeply skeptical about this, "I have seen the production of artillery and firearms, how many attempts have to be made by the personnel of the bureau even if they are moved by a small detail, how can the people of Qingguo succeed easily, even if they succeed, it is impossible to reach the level of the bureau." ”
Chen Baichuan sighed again and explained: "Imitation is much simpler than creation, making the game and me from zero to one is a complicated process, and Qingguo people are from one to two, this process is relatively simple." As for the level, they don't have to keep up at all. Do you think, after relying on Qingguo's national strength to make ten muskets, can he win the game with one excellent musket? ”
Explaining this, Chu Hui also understood Chen Baichuan's worries. He was afraid that Qingguo would rely on strong national strength to win by quantity.
Chu Hui imagined in his mind that it was 100,000 soldiers with muskets and artillery guns attacking, and he shuddered. He could have predicted that the majesty of gunpowder would be perfectly displayed on such a battlefield, and perhaps the entire province of Anling would be bombed to ashes.
So, what about now?
Chen Baichuan raised his head, with a lot of depression in his eyes, and said: "Originally, in my expectation, Qingguo should have stepped on the sunny road of firearms later. But now that he's on it, we can pull him down. ”
Just listening to his words, he swore by it, but his face was a little depressed, and the effect of Chen Baichuan's words was greatly reduced. At least no matter how low Chu Hui's IQ was, he was not coaxed by his words.
"Could it be that Qingguo will definitely embark on the road of developing firearms?"
"Not only Qingguo, but also Beiban and Daheng, as long as they still exist in this world after the trend of firearms is set off, they will develop firearms, which is the process of history." Lord Chen chattered.
Chu Hui was stunned for a few seconds, still unable to understand what Chen Baichuan meant by the historical process, but he didn't delve into it anymore, just bent his head down a few times.
"No matter what, I'll talk about these things later."
Just when Chen Baichuan was about to give up on himself for the time being and come up with a way to solve this matter tomorrow, a servant girl came in.
This is among the county offices, and the maidservants are also left in the original house. Jiang Shiluo is a woman, and the people around him are indispensable women, at least Lord Chen himself is unwilling to take care of his wife.
After this servant girl followed Jiang Shiluo, her status in the mansion rose sharply, and she was not afraid of life even in front of Lord Chen.
Seeing that Chu Hui was there, she walked over and leaned over Chen Baichuan and said a few broken words.
The woman's voice was already delicate, and the little maid specially lowered her voice, Chen Baichuan only felt an itch in his ears, and everything else was heard intermittently.
The maid said it again, but when Chen Baichuan shook her head in disappointment, the maid finally spoke up.
"My lord, why can't you hear it, I don't know if you want to be known about it. Today, the doctor said that the housewife may be happy! ”
Her words this time were really not quiet, at least Chu Hui also heard the words.
"What?" Chen Baichuan was stunned as if he had been struck by five thunderbolts in the sky, and only when Chu Hui gently pushed his elbow did he turn his head and look at Chu Hui with a blank face.
Chu Hui's face was full of joy and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations!" ”
Chen Baichuan suddenly came to his senses, took the handmaid's wrist and hurriedly said, "Where is Shi Luo now, take me to find her." ”
The maid was surprised for a moment, and said in a daze: "The mistress is in her room." ”
After that, she only saw a figure running in the direction of the county office.
After a few knocks on the door, it didn't take long for the tok to reveal a thin slit that could only reveal half of the face.
Half a familiar face was revealed, Jiang Shiluo's face was faintly flushed for some reason, and she said coquettishly: "Xiao Lu's big tongue, but he told you everything?" ”
Master Chen nodded, and then the door was closed in an instant.
