"I see!"

Feng Kaizhang is not a stupid person, on the contrary, he is very smart.

No wonder the prince asked Wei Yue to arrange it, and it turned out that he was also giving the newcomer Taixi a dismount. A firearm like the Lu Mi gun is, of course, a militaristic weapon, and the right shooting is about 100 steps, but in fact, according to the record, at least about 200 steps still has strong accuracy and lethality.

However, in Feng Kaizhang's opinion, many words in the Wubei Zhi cannot be taken seriously, but this Lu Mi Gong should be a unique weapon in the world in terms of shooting accuracy, distance, and power.

In fact, it is true, as far as Zhu Cihong knows, there was indeed no more powerful firearm than Lu Mi Gong at that time.

With the Ming Dynasty's emphasis on firearms, although this kind of gun was made in the 26th year of Wanli, it is still not a big problem to be 100 years ahead of the world.

It's a pity that this kind of fire gun has particularly high requirements for the craftsman's skills, not an experienced veteran can not succeed, and the requirements for fine iron are large, and the demand is large, if it is made in batches, how many blast furnaces must be for molten iron alone?

It must not take a long time, the work of drilling the pipe is not urgent, at most one inch a day, not a month, it is difficult to succeed.

Even if the prince arranges thousands of apprentices, will be trained within a few years, and dozens of blast furnaces will be built to produce refined iron, how can the time for drilling pipes be solved?

Feng Kaizhang could only sigh, and said in his heart: "It seems that it is still a little more difficult to defeat the enemy with firearms." However, artillery is a heavy weapon of the militaristic state, and now there are artillery camps in the east and thieves, and only by casting more Hongyi cannons is it serious. ”

Seeing that it was not early, he said hello to everyone in the Firearms Bureau, and was about to get on his horse and leave.

"By the way, Mr. Feng, I ask you to report to His Highness, the artillery trial casting has come out, please allocate it to the horse, and the miscellaneous bureau will also send some carpenters and leathermen over."

"Okay, I got it."

Although he didn't quite understand, Feng Kaizhang felt quite depressed at this time, so he agreed, and then whipped his horse and left.

During the sea journey from Tianjin to Nanjing, Zhu Cihong and Feng Kaizhang had a very close relationship, and most of the current friendships were established at that time, like Wei Yue and Qiu Yuanyi, these generals, and Zhu Cihong's closeness was also due to the exchanges during the sea.

At that time, Zhu Cihong's idea of being a small number of elite cavalry, a large number of well-trained musketeers, and a powerful artillery battalion to defeat the enemy with firearms was the core foundation.

At that time, Feng Kaizhang was also puzzled, Sun Chengzong had rebuilt the car battalion when he was in western Liaoning, and each battalion had 8,000 people, including a number of car battalions, a number of cannons, and a number of infantry armed with firearms.

Almost most of this camp system is firearms, but the actual effectiveness seems to be very unbearable.

At least, Liaoxi is famous for the Shanhaiguan Iron Cavalry Battalion, which is collectively known as the Guanning Iron Cavalry, not the firearms battalion built by Old Man Sun wishfully.

The prince just smiled and said nothing at the time, saying that it was different from what Sun Chengzong thought, but now it seems that when it comes to talking about the sea, is it going to be in vain?

With this kind of depressed thoughts, Feng Kaizhang could only ride depressed on this longitudinal and horizontal Qianmo.

Behind him, there is also a team of very strong cavalry, all wearing red bubble nail placket riding cotton armor, wearing cherry helmets, is a serious northland cavalry dress, at this time the shadow is slanting westward, and the road is full of new army soldiers who are practicing riding outside, they see the cavalry wearing beautiful lint armor passing by, and their eyes are also showing envy, and then see Feng Kaizhang's own soldiers carrying long knives and giant axes and other weapons, the waist is a thick scimitar using the riding chop, and the left and right bodies are water hyacinths and lacquered cowhide quivers, There are also some traces of sword cutting on the body of the pot, inside are long carved iron arrows, on the back, are the long and short bows and arrows on the back, the long is the infantry iron bow, and the short one is a short bow that can be ridden and shot on a horse.

Such a strong veteran dress made the cavalrymen of the new army who had just learned to ride horses and had conducted long-distance training in the field not belong, and the eyebrows of the young men were full of envy.

"Look at what, look!"

A cavalry officer couldn't see it, and scolded: "Look at the fire of the armor battle over there, all the fights are cavalry." The infantry, whether it is an artilleryman or a gunner, or a knife player, or a spearman, is fucking behind. You see, they are only foamed skin cotton armor, and forty catties of armor only have ten catties of iron, which is not very useful. Our cavalry is all made of iron armor, made of fine iron, each weighing thirty pounds, and the heart guards with the size of a sea bowl on their chests! Layer upon layer of iron scales will not hurt you with swords and arrows! As long as you don't get chopped off or chopped off, you will be poked with a spear, and you will be allowed to come to the battlefield. ”

"Who said that Lao Tzu's armor is useless?"

The voice of this cavalry officer was too loud, and the leader of the guards in front of him was also angry, and he turned around and scolded.

Anyway, Feng Kaizhang couldn't hear it, the adults of the town didn't tie their armor, they ran fast, this is the range of the barracks, and the safety can be guaranteed, send a large team of people to follow, you might as well look back and see who is talking so arrogantly and disgusting.

"It's Lao Tzu, Wen Dayan, you fucking or Lao Tzu rescued from the battlefield, what's the matter, don't you accept it?"

"It's Boss Xie, haha, it turned out to be you."

"It's not who Lao Tzu is!"

The two of them laughed, turned the horse closer, you punched me, I slapped you back, and after a short while, they all stopped laughing, and the leader of the guards with Wen Dayan was also red-eyed, and said in a deep voice: "I don't want us to meet here again, when I was a sentry in Jizhen, I was born and died, and I didn't suffer less, and my merit was not small, and I ended up in the end." Exiled to Tianjin, I was left by the old governor as a personal soldier, and you followed Qiu Yuanyi's house, and now you are good, and you are also an officer. ”

"The captain counts a ball!" The team officer surnamed Xie was very rude, and he opened his mouth and said: "It's rare for Lao Tzu to be a battalion officer, look, I'm right, over there, you see, that's where the A Battle Bureau is located, how many fucking furnaces are boring iron, how many craftsmen are picking hammers, and how many weapons and armor are shot every day!" You kid go and take a look, the prince spends so much money and trains so many soldiers, is it just a joke? Northern Expedition Northern Expedition, Lao Tzu is waiting to make a contribution, kill a few more Tartars, we have been in Jizhen for those years, and the injustice we suffered is too fucking uncomfortable! ”

This guy spoke rudely, but he also spoke very much to Wen Dayan and others, old acquaintances saw each other, and a little unhappiness had already disappeared, and at the moment I also wanted to see where the other party said about the first battle bureau, but thinking that his duty was a guard, he had to shake his head and said: "Let's talk about it if you have kung fu, look, I also ask Feng Zongzhen to let me out to lead the troops!" ”

"It's like, huddle up next to the top, what's the meaning of birds?"

The surnamed Xie turned his head and saw that his team of cavalry was in a daze, and unconsciously scolded: "What do you see?" What do you do when you go back and dismount? ”

"Hey the horses!"

"How do you feed it?"

"Four catties of bean feed, add salt, feed eight catties of forage, and then, hang the horse's neck again, and give it food."

A group of 400 soldiers, coaxing and riding on horses, when answering, they all barked in straight voices, and frightened many horses, some of which had just been bought, and were still horses not long ago, and had never been on the battlefield.

"Mother, be quiet, don't frighten the horse."

As soon as the team officer scolded, a naughty ghost muttered, "I'm not afraid of frightening us." ”

"You are human, you know what's going on, you have to take your time!" The team officer glared and scolded, then laughed and said loudly: "Sing the military song, sing the military song, sing the military song of our cavalry!" ”

"The warriors of the Three Kingdoms are brave, Zhao Zilong is the first to be recommended, and the front of Changban Slope is a heroic ......"

The loud military song immediately sounded, startling the flocks of magpies on the trees on both sides of the road, and in the twilight, groups of slag flew high, and the scum kept screaming.

………… Feng Kaizhang returned to the camp and went to his residence for dinner first, the Generalissimo's Mansion adhered to Zhu Cihong's simple and simple style, and everything about cooking and eating was very simple.

Even if Feng Kaizhang is the son of the governor, now he is the head town, that is, the administrative office allocated the house, and then a special guard called him dinner, and then he was alone, and he was alone, and he hurriedly ate a few dishes.

When he went out, he smiled to himself, and said in his heart: "I have changed too?" ”

If Feng Kaizhang is a descendant, he will sigh at this time: The crown prince is too much like a puritan!

In the late Ming Dynasty, the atmosphere of luxury and enjoyment was heavy, and men and women would be regarded as celestials, and those scholars were all greased and powdered, and even wore women's clothes, and people did not think it was strange.

As for wealthy merchant landlords like Jin Zhumei, they abound, and it is not unusual.

There are also many people who like male style and love male pets.

Fighting for treasures, chasing joy and laughter, and spending extravagantly, the simple and pragmatic atmosphere before the middle of the Ming Dynasty has long been gone.

Of course, such an open social atmosphere is also conducive to the emancipation of the mind, like Huang Zongxi and Gu Yanwu, although they had a very bad role at the time, but later they grew older, and in the thinking of monarchy and civil rights, they really surpassed the times, and they were the leading figures in the world at that time.

And although Feng Kaizhang is not a person in this way, but after all, the Feng family is a developed family for several generations, Zhong Ming Ding eats, and enjoys a little bit of no one else, if it was at the beginning, a meal of at least ten or twenty dishes, and the delicate and lovely girls served these things in life, where can it be like now, it is simply like the world.

But compared to the crown prince, it is heaven and earth again.

Just thinking about it, a secretary of the secretariat hurriedly came, saw Feng Kaizhang standing outside the door, first made a march, and then said: "Please come to His Highness quickly, His Highness will summon urgently." ”

If it were elsewhere, an identity like Feng Kaizhang would have been called a marshal military gate a long time ago, and the prince is here, that is, a general town.

Of course, Feng Kaizhang himself does not have the idea of self-confidence, he is a person, and he has established the merit of leaving Beijing from Long, and he has also established some merits for Liu Zeqing, but it is not big, and he is in the town, but because the soldiers of the Tianjin family in the army are watching with their eyes, and the prince's skill of controlling people is also used in the bright place, which is convincing.

agreed at the moment, and said with a smile: "I'm about to go to see you, so please do it!" ”
