Zhao Shiheng had never seen a fire gun, but when he saw this thing, the first thing that came to mind was a fire gun. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When Zhao Shijun saw his brother's surprised look, he just smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "This is a shotgun, not a firecracker, it is much more powerful than a firecracker." ”

In the Ming Dynasty, the gun was generally three-eyed and straight, similar to an iron rod, and the three barrels could be filled with gunpowder when fighting, and the fire rope could be fired by lighting the fire rope from behind, and it could be fired three times in a short time.

If the gunpowder is exhausted, the three-eyed gun is also an iron rod in hand, and there is no need for a knife or gun when fighting, which is very suitable.

This thing that Zhao Shijun brought from the outside was obviously not a three-eyed gun.

"Shotguns?" Zhao Shiheng touched the cold iron pipe and asked, "It won't be used to hunt birds." ”

"Hahahaha, of course not!" Zhao Shijun stood up and walked to the side of the shotgun, picked it up and took a deep breath and said: "This shotgun was originally not my Chinese thing, but was used by the Japanese Kou, although it is smaller than the three-eyed firearm, it is extremely powerful, and it can shoot a hundred steps away. ”

One hundred steps, that's almost one hundred and fifty meters.

The shotgun that Zhao Shijun brought over, in fact, the first to appear was not Japan, but Europe, this thing came from Europe, and there is a well-known name on the other side of the ocean, called "flintlock pistol!" ”

But what Zhao Shijun is holding in his hand is only the original form of a flintlock pistol, not the flintlock pistol that can be fired at the end of the development to the end.

It's an arquebus, to be exact!

The firing distance is extremely long, reaching an unprecedented 150 meters, but it is still necessary to ignite the gunpowder with a fire rope to achieve the shooting, and there is a certain interval between them.

The shooting distance of the shotgun is 150 meters, and the killing distance should be about 100 meters, and the accuracy of shooting is extremely poor. Even so, in the Ming Dynasty, it was already the most bullish weapon.

"This was plundered from the Wa Kingdom?" Zhao Shiheng's eyes were always on the gun.

"No, this is our imitation, and it's a little worse than the one we got from the Wa Kingdom." Zhao Shijun was a little disappointed, but the light in his eyes did not fade.

"Shijun, this, secretly possessing firearms, this is the crime of killing the head, where did you get this bird gun?" Zhao Shiheng was a little worried, and the first thing that came to mind when he looked at the bird gun was not its lethality, but the disaster that this thing would bring to the family.

Many dynasties in ancient times forbade the private possession of iron weapons, and the Ming Dynasty was more enlightened and did not ban iron, but not everyone could have this firearm.

"Big brother, don't ask, I not only have this thing, but I have more than one!" Zhao Shijun's face was slightly proud.

"Ah......" Zhao Shiheng was so frightened that a cold sweat broke out on his body, and secretly said What are you trying to rebel against?

Isn't this pushing the whole family into the fire pit!

Xu saw his brother's worry, Zhao Shijun no longer scared him, smiled at his brother, and said: "Big brother, don't be afraid, don't worry, although I brought three or five bird guns this time, the government will definitely not treat me!" ”

"Why?"

"Big brother!" Zhao Shijun took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said, "You have been in Xiangyang Mansion for a long time, and you only see the peace now, but you don't know the outside world. Now the Jianzhou Tartars are eyeing our Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi and Henan have been famine and displaced people for many years, the court is exhausted, and the world is in turmoil. ”

"Bastard!" Zhao Shiheng listened to Zhao Shijun's words, thought that he was going to rebel, slapped the table and said, "Do you want to put the entire family to death?" The Ming Dynasty was naturally troubled by internal and external troubles, but if we moved, the Fang County Health Office instantly crushed us into powder. ”

"Big brother, you misunderstood what I meant!" Zhao Shijun shook his head and grabbed the emotional Zhao Shiheng, and said softly: "You be quiet, be careful that the wall has ears." ”

"Big brother, I've been an official outside all the year round, in fact, that kind of hairy boy who doesn't distinguish between light and heavy?"

Asked this, Zhao Shiheng calmed down.

"In today's form of the world, Gucheng and Yunxian are still in trouble, I don't think it will take two years, and our Fangxian paradise will also become a place full of bandits, but my Zhao family has thousands of family wealth, isn't it a fat sheep to be slaughtered!"

"I'm not persuading the eldest brother to rise up, we can't get up, I'm talking about group practice!" Zhao Shijun has been talking for so long, and finally said what he thought in his heart.

"Team practice?" Zhao Shiheng was stunned.

"Yes, team training!"

When the world is not peaceful and the imperial court is unable to send troops, the local squires can organize themselves to apply to the county to form a group to protect themselves, and the group training can have hundreds of troops, and they can naturally have weapons, and their main role is to prevent banditry.

The key lies in the word self-preservation.

"Now that the new emperor has been on the throne for two years, he is good at killing generals, and the people in the court are panicking. Although I am also a half-official, I am just a small official, and I don't have much success in this life, so I can't figure out when Xiang Shang's head is not guaranteed. Now that the world has changed, we must not have the mentality of luck, and we must also take advantage of the situation. ”

At this moment, Zhao Shiheng completely calmed down, and his eyes were bright, as if he could see through the fog.

Zhao Shijun continued beside him: "Our family is not short of money, and it should not be difficult to raise a group of three or four hundred people. If there is an opportunity, it will grow in one fell swoop, and from then on it will sit in Fang County, divide Jingxiang, and leave a name for eternity. ”

"Even if it is not good, it is more than enough to protect oneself, if the Ming Dynasty is not extinguished, you and I can't say that the court can reward the glorious lintel!"

Zhao Shiheng slowly understood Zhao Shijun's thoughts.

Zhao Shijun's ideal is very big, from now on to hold a group training, gradually develop around his own home, anyway, under the banner of the imperial court, he is not afraid of being said to be rebelled by others. If the imperial court perishes, it will seek a glimmer of life in the cracks, and if it becomes successful, it will sit on the land of Jingxiang, of course, if it is defeated, there will be nothing and it may be necessary to take his life, but Lü Buwei said that with ten times the profit, you can risk killing your head, it is still worth it; If the court does not fall, his own family can also make a name for defending the countryside against bandits.

Why not?

"Why did Shijun suddenly have this thought?" Zhao Shiheng didn't agree immediately, and turned his head to look at his younger brother.

"Brother doesn't know, the bandits in Yunxian and Gucheng are too serious, and the prefecture and county have no time to look east, and many squires have set up group exercises. But Er Cao is a man of all eyes, and he is just a village to protect himself. ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Shiheng nodded and asked, "What you said is naturally good, but it is a little inconvenient!" ”

"What's the inconvenience?"

"Yunxian Gucheng is because of banditry, so the county yamen allows the local government to hold group exercises, our Fang County is a peaceful place, there is no bandit trouble at all, how can the county agree to let us hold group exercises?"

Group training is easy to say, but it is even more difficult to do.

"Huh!" Zhao Shijun's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing two fierce lights: "There is no trouble in Fang County, let's go and cause trouble!" Once there is a bandit in the local area, with my friendship with Lord Huang, this matter will be fine! (To be continued.) )
