Four-two-six machine guns?!

(Thank you to 'Yang Yiao' and 'China Shattered Galaxy' for their evaluation votes, and to all my brothers who supported me.) οΌ‰

The silver offered by many squires is almost 150,000 taels, which is already a lot, that is, it is placed outside the customs, the relationship between these squires and landlords is not strong enough, and the foundation is also shallow, and they have just been cleaned up by the Jurchens, and they are all afraid, so they are grateful and afraid of Lian Zining, so they are so happy and obedient to pay the money. If it was changed to Jiangnan, Lian Zining would dare to ask for money like this, and the snowflake-like impeachment recital the next day would be able to drown him!

If you dare to cut the flesh of the relatives of civil officials, the dismissal and investigation are all light.

In addition to making money, the second thing Lian Zining did was sales.

Marketing corn.

He invited the squires to taste the corn, and then told them how high the corn was produced, and they were of course skeptical. Lian Zining is not reluctant, anyway, now that the ground of Kemu Mountain has been planted with wheat, if he misses the time for spring ploughing, even if he wants to plant corn, he will have to wait for next year. He invited them to Xishenwei to take a look at the corn harvest when they saw it with their own eyes, but they were afraid that they would not have to force it at all, and they would plant it themselves.

After entrenching on the ground of Kemu Mountain for a few days, until these gentry were all gathered in their hearts, and the many traitors and criminals who had risen because of the war some time ago were also killed, Lian Zining then set off for his next stop.

When he set off to leave, the magistrates of the three cities on the ground of Kemu Mountain had also arrived, and they were all middle-level officials who had been trained in the general office yamen for a long time - officials at this level, compared to their status, they had more practical experience, and those with lower status than him, their horizons were broad enough. Don't stick to one corner, you can see the whole picture.

So such officials. is the backbone of a system, and most of them do things.

The three of them are not from serious backgrounds, they are just rough poetry and books, if they are according to the standards of the Ming Dynasty, let alone being officials, don't even think about it. However, their performance is good enough, and the agriculture in the area they are in charge of is particularly good, and the cooperation in the conscription work is also activeβ€”and agriculture is precisely the aspect that Lian Zining values the most now.

The ground of Kemu Mountain was originally a prefecture-level administrative district. But because the territory is relatively small now, Lian Zining can manage it directly, so there is no need to set up another prefect.

Lian Zining's next stop is the big city of Zhubang.

The question of how to deal with the big city of Zhubang has always been a problem for Lian Zining.

Speaking of which. Zhubang Dacheng is a prefecture under the jurisdiction of General Songhuajiang, and it is to listen to Lian Zining's orders. However, the Jurchen soldiers did not harm the Zhubang city, and Lian Zining's Wu Yi army has always been operating outside the Zhubang city, and did not appear as a liberator. Therefore, there is always a feeling of being outside the Wu Yi Army on the ground of the Zhubang City, and the people's sense of identity with the Wu Yi Army is naturally conceivable.

And its upper and lower officials are also appointed by the imperial court, and they are not absolutely obedient to Lian Zining. This made Lian Zining very dissatisfied. Within his own jurisdiction, he could not achieve complete control, which he did not allow.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a long time, Lian Zining decided to go to Zhubang Dacheng in person this time in order to solve this problem.

Uncle Wu Yi and General Songhuajiang came to inspect. This news instantly spread throughout the officialdom and people of the big city of Zhubang.

Lian Zining led tens of thousands of troops all the way, and the surrounding people felt the might of the soldiers and came to pay their respects. This was beyond Lian Zining's expectations, but he didn't expect to take a trip with a large army, but he was still affected by such an effect, which increased the sense of identity of the people there. …,

Thinking about it, the people outside the Guanxi have seen more wars than the people in the Guan, so the desire and enthusiasm for a strong army that can protect themselves are also incomparable to the indifference of the people in the Guannai.

Only when the butcher's knife of the alien race falls on their heads can they think of the soldiers who have been suppressed and despised for more than two hundred years.

On the first day of June, the army arrived in Zhubang Dacheng, and Zhang Xiju, the prefect of Zhubang Dacheng, led dozens of his officials out of the city for 30 miles to kneel to greet him.

Looking at the tens of thousands of troops in the distance, covering the sky and the sun and pressing over like dark clouds, these officials all felt stuffy in their hearts for a while, and they were uncomfortable.

It's not the first time they've seen Wu Yibo, they met once last year when the army went on an expedition, and then they met again when Wu Yibo went to Beijing to report on his work, this is the third time, but in just one year, the situation has been turned upside down.

When Wu Yibo first took office, everyone speculated that this master was finished - kicked from the center of the capital to this extreme northern frontier, there were natural disasters inside, and there were Jurchens eyeing him outside, even if he was not tossed by those rebels, he would have to capsize in the next round of Jurchen invasion.

Unexpectedly, in less than a year, all the rebels in the territory have been pacified by him, and almost from scratch, tossing an elite army of tens of thousands of people!

This is not an ordinary border army, but an army that even the Jurchens can win and cripple!

These days, Wu Yijun pacified Qileniwei, Kaolang Wuwei, Mangjita City, pacified the ground of Kemu Mountain, and even more than a dozen cities such as Wuzhi Yuyemusuo and Zafei Hewei, and the news spread to the big city of Zhubang one by one. The ears of the soldiers and people in the city were full of news about how strong the Wu Yi Army was and how successful it was.

Invisibly, this also made them establish a thought in their hearts - Wu Yijun is invincible.

The hidden worries of these officials are also here, Wu Yibo is already extremely powerful, and now that he is supported by such a large army, will he act unscrupulously?

Zhang Xiju's face was also solemn.

He is the prefect, and he gets more than others, and he has heard a lot of Lian Zining arrogant and arrogant, and he has done illegal things, these news make his heart tremble, and all of them are accused of killing his head and stealing his family!

But he never mentioned these things, even in the correspondence with friends in Beijing, he never mentioned them.

Mingzhe's self-protection is the king's way, this matter is the responsibility of Jinyiwei, let's not meddle rashly, so as not to provoke fire.

Lian Zining and the others arrived. Ten steps away, Zhang Xiju led everyone to kneel. Said loudly: "Xiaguan greets the general!" General Wu Yun Changlong. ”

Lian Zining ran all the way, but he didn't get tired, but he had a good complexion on his face.

His complexion can't be bad, last year from Xishenwei back to Beijing to report on work, all the way, the two sides of the Songhua River valley in his own territory of 1,700 miles can be said to be full of devastation, but now, it is densely populated, villages everywhere. Seedlings roll in waves. At a glance, it is a scene of prosperity in a peaceful and prosperous world.

While walking, thinking that he was the master of this rich land, Lian Zining naturally felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Zhang Xiju and others were very respectful, and Lian Zining was very satisfied. There was also a smile on his face.

Since he already had a strange mind, how could he not be prepared? The interception and killing of Jinyiwei is just one of them, as early as when MI6 was first established, a group of elites were already ordered to infiltrate the big city of Zhubang, watching the every move of these officials, and many of them have already infiltrated the post road system of the Ming Dynasty. The letters of the people of the Ming Dynasty came and went, except for a very small number of dignitaries and dignitaries who took special hands to send letters, and even most of the official documents of the imperial court were exchanged through post roads, so the letters of these officials. It's not a secret in front of Lian Zining. …,

Before arriving in Zhubang Dacheng, Qianhu, who was in charge of the first bureau of MI6 in charge of this area, had already met Lian Zining, and reflected that these officials were very honest and had nothing out of the ordinary.

So Lian Zining is very satisfied.

(Chapter name - machine gun, bolt like an oyster)

But when his eyes swept around the crowd of kneeling people, his eyes became a little cold.

Behind Zhang Xi's lift. An official wearing a small miscellaneous green robe with a black horn belt around his waist stood there straight, and did not kneel, staring at Lian Zining with round eyes, with an angry face.

The Qingpao official is at least a seven-rank official, which is already a big official in a prefecture-level administrative district, and this person must have a very high status in the big city of Zhubang.

"How?" Lian Zining sneered in his heart, he clearly wants to come and work hard with me? This guy is a daring one.

Zhang Xiju was cautiously kneeling there to observe Lian Zining's face, seeing him looking behind him, his face was a little cold, and when he looked back, he couldn't help but be startled, and quickly pulled the man's clothes, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Ploughing smoke, kneel down!" ”

Unexpectedly, the official who was called to work as a ploughing tobacco turned a deaf ear, and actually walked through the crowd with his legs and strode towards Lian Zining.

The guards around Lian Zining immediately drew their swords one after another, and the snowy sword light reflected a terrifying light in the sunlight, and some of them had already raised their divine arm crossbows and aimed them at him.

Lian Zining snorted slightly, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about him!" ”

He had already seen that this cultivator was vain in his feet, thin and weak, and he was simply an ordinary person with a slightly weak physique, what were he afraid of doing?

Although Lian Zining had already ordered, for the sake of safety, Gengyan was still stopped, and several bright steel knives were placed on his neck, which immediately made him tremble and stop his steps.

Zhang Xiju was shocked and shouted, "My lord, don't ......"

The cultivator's face also changed, and he shouted loudly: "Uncle, don't misunderstand, the lower official has no bad intentions." ”

Lian Zining snorted coldly: "Then what do you mean?" ”

The official took two steps back, knocked on the ground with one head, and said: "Xiaguan Dai Zi, the word ploughing and tobacco, likes to study firearms since he was a child, and he has a lot of experience over the years, but my country abolished firearms, so the skills of Xiaguan have become the skills of slaying dragons, and he has to take the imperial examination as a last resort, and he is still extremely obsessed with firearms after becoming an official." Xia Guan heard that only the uncle's Wu Yijun attached great importance to firearms in the country, and it was extremely sophisticated, so he had long been yearning for it, and it happened that Xia Guan had a result to present to his uncle, so he was excited for a while, and collided with the uncle, and hoped that the uncle would forgive his sins. ”

Zhang Xiju also said: "Uncle, this Dai Zi is an idiot, he only knows how to study firearms all day long, but he doesn't have any bad intentions." I hope that the uncle will not be surprised. ”

Dai Zi?

Lian Zining heard the name, and vaguely felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

He is now a little interested in his heart, and he said in his heart that Dai Zi is really a nerd, and he is also a wonderful person, he has been in the Ming Dynasty for so long, and it is the first time he has seen a scholar who regards the study of skills as more important than being an official in the imperial examination.

And this man likes to delve into firearms.

He smiled, his face softened a lot, and waved his hand: "Let's all get up!" ”

Many officials cheered up, and Zhang Xiju said: "I heard that the uncle is coming, and the lower officials are all excited. The barracks in the city have been cleaned and the food is ready. Uncle's army can be stationed at any time. The adults' residences have also been prepared, and the lower officials and others have already prepared a banquet in the Linjiang Building to wash the dust for the adults. ”

Lian Zining nodded and said, "Lord Lao Zhang is bothered, let's go!" ”

These officials got into the carriage one after another, leading the way in front of the head, and Lian Zining asked Dai Zi, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”…,

Dai Zi nodded hurriedly, Lian Zining ordered to vacate a horse, but Dai Zi turned over and got on the horse very neatly.

Lian Zining said as he walked: "Lord Dai, you are a wonderful person. This official is the first time to see someone who loves firearms more than officials! ”

Dai Zi smiled embarrassedly: "Xia Guan doesn't like anything else." Gold beads and treasures, alcohol and beauties don't love it, even if they are officials, they just mean their families. But if a new firearm can be developed, it is ecstatic. These delusions. It made the adults laugh. ”

Lian Zining can see that this person is also like Quan Yang, a technical maniac.

He waved his hand and asked with interest, "What did you say you wanted to offer to this officer?" ”

Asking this question, he actually didn't have much expectations in his heart, now is the period of great development of Wu Yi's military firearms, Gonzalez's Ordnance Bureau is constantly developing new results, but firearms research is not as easy as imagined, it requires many tests. The need for high-quality steel, the need for experienced and skilled craftsmen, and the need for a large injection of capital are not something that private individuals can afford.

Dai Zi's next sentence made him almost jump up.

"The thing that the lower officials offered is called Lianzhu Gong."

"Lianzhu?" Stimulated by these three words. Lian Zining's mind suddenly flashed with inspiration, and he immediately remembered who Dai Zi was.

Lian Zining stared at Dai Zi eagerly, and asked urgently, "You are Dai Zi?" ”

"yes?" Dai Zi was a little confused, and said in surprise: "The next official is Dai Zi!" What's wrong with you, my lord? ”

"Nothing, nothing! Good! Good! Lian Zining had a smile on his face, he couldn't hide it, he said three good words in a row, and finally couldn't help it anymore and laughed.

Dai Zi, this is an amazing god!

said that Dai Zi was only afraid that few people knew, and said that few people even knew about Zhu Gong.

But when it comes to machine guns, I'm afraid there are few people who don't know.

And the earliest machine gun in the entire earth plane for tens of millions of years was the Lianzhu gun invented by Dai Zi!

China is the first country in the world to use firearms as weapons, and it has also led the world in the manufacture of firearms and firearms, but during the Opium War, the squadron was vulnerable in the face of foreign guns and artillery. The reason for this is that the Manchu Qing Dynasty took "mounted archery is the foundation of Manchuria" as the guiding ideology of the army, resulting in the backwardness of the army's weapons.

The braided Kang of Shengming's heroic martial arts, which is boasted by some people, has also made great achievements in making China's firearms lag behind the world.

Among them, one of the most regrettable talents destroyed by him was Dai Zi, and one of the most regrettable research results that he broke into the cold palace was Lian Zhugong.

Dai Zi, a native of Qiantang, Zhejiang. He once lived in Yangzhou, in his later years in Liaodong, called himself the old man of farming and tobacco, was born in the sixth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty and died in the fourth year of Yongzheng.

Dai Zi is erudite and versatile, proficient in astronomy, calendars, canals, poetry and painting, historical books, etc., and is also a world-renowned manufacturer of machinery and weapons. He was born in a family of officials, since he was a child, his father Dai Cang was good at ordnance manufacturing, and was also a famous painter at that time, under the influence of his father, Dai Zi fell in love with mechanical manufacturing when he was a teenager, and had made a variety of firearms by himself, one of which could hit a target a hundred steps away.

In the thirteenth year of Kangxi, Geng Jingzhong raised troops from Fujian to invade Zhejiang, in response to Wu Sangui's rebellion, Kangxi sent Prince Kang Jieshu as a general to lead the Qing army to Fujian and Zhejiang to conquer Geng Jingzhong.

In that year, Dai Zi abandoned his pen and went out with the army. His military talent is outstanding, and he analyzes the military situation in detail, so he is deeply compatible with Prince Kang and is very respected.

After the rebellion of the three feudatories was pacified, Dai Zi returned triumphantly with Prince Kang's army and was summoned by Kangxi. Kangxi appreciated Dai Zi's talent very much and appointed him as a lecturer in the Hanlin Academy. In the twenty-fifth year of Kangxi, the Dutch government sent an envoy to China and paid tribute to the "Panintestine Shotgun", Dai Zi was ordered to imitate ten, and Kangxi gave the imitation gun back to the Dutch envoy. Soon, he was ordered to imitate the "Franc device", which was called the Franc cannon by the Ming Dynasty, and it took only five days to complete. The Belgian missionary Nan Huairen once boasted to Kangxi that the "cupola cannon" invented by their country, also known as the "sub-mother cannon", was actually a kind of Franco's machine gun, and boasted that the "cupola" could only be made by the Belgians, but it took a year to build it. And Dai Zi only took eight days to cause. …,

After the "cupola cannon" was built, Kangxi led his ministers to the scene to watch the test firing. Kangxi was very happy and praised the "Cupola Cannon" with powerful firepower and no missing bullets, and immediately gave the cannon the name "General Weiyuan", and ordered the name of the manufacturer to be engraved on the cannon body to commemorate. The "Cupola" played an important role in the later battle to quell the Galdan rebellion.

However, since the pacification of Geldan and no more fighting, Kangxi began to order the gradual destruction of firearms, so as not to 'poison the world' - think about it, a Jurchen soldier skilled in cavalry and archery is enough to deal with dozens of Han people. And if firearms are widespread. What are the advantages of the Jurchen riding and archery tradition? It is also worth killing the opportunity for the rise of the Chinese nation in order to maintain the rule of the Manchu clan.

After the abolition of firearms, Dai Zi also slowly fell out of favor.

Because Dai Zi is upright and upright, he dares to speak up, and he has offended many people in the court. When the successful trial production of the "Cupola Cannon", he inadvertently offended Nan Huairen, who was jealous and waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, so he colluded with Chen Hongxun, the son of Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son, to frame Dai Zi in front of Kangxi for "fornicating with the East", Kangxi believed slander and exiled Dai Zi to Shengjing, that is, Shenyang.

After arriving in Shenyang, Dai Zi was forced to live by selling calligraphy and paintings, and lived a difficult life for more than 30 years. "Lying on the cold kang at night, and wading into the mountains to pick up hazelnuts in the early morning to cure hunger."

Later, Dai Zi dedicated Lianzhu Gong, but Kangxi did not pay attention to it, and the only Lianzhu Gong in the world finally disappeared.

Dai Zi was poor in the second half of his life, and at the age of seventy-eight, he died of poverty and illness.

Dai Zi not only made great contributions to the development of firearms. And he also has a high attainment in art. The tone of his poems is sad and angry, and he is more documentary and nostalgic, and he has written "Poems of Ploughing Tobacco". Dai Zi also summed up the experience of his predecessors in water control and wrote a water book entitled "Ten Strategies for River Control".

Later generations have a poem: "Sharpening the sword for half a lifetime is sold in vain, and writing books for thousands of years is amazing." ”

Dai Ziqi's talent and talent in firearms have reached an unbelievable level.

It's a pity that the times are not good, and I met Kangxi, a good emperor.

The amazing Lianzhu has also disappeared in the long river of history, but its power and ingenuity can still be seen in the few words left in the history books.

Ji Xiaolan's "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang" said:

"It is shaped like a lute, and all gunpowder and lead pills are stored in the spine of the gun, and are opened and closed by a wheel. There are two machines, such as oysters, and the first machine is the gunpowder lead pellet from the falling cylinder, and the second machine moves simultaneously, and the stone is excited, and the gun is fired, counting 28 rounds, and the gunpowder lead pellet is exhausted, and it needs to be re-stored. ”

The so-called oysters refer to both males and females. Mozi? There is a saying: "It is said that the oyster is male and female." "Historical Records? The Biography of Dawan Lie also said: "The Han army took dozens of good horses, and more than 3,000 peysters below the middle horse. ”

And another meaning of this word is that it refers to the genitals of men and women, and it is often used to refer to women's lower bodies in three words and two beats.

(I remember I don't know how many times I've mentioned it, a lot, Brother Jiang Xing happened to have it in the pearl shirt, interested brothers should find it themselves, anyway, there are almost all cheating episodes, hehe...... οΌ‰

Ji Xiaolan's metaphor is also interesting, extremely vivid, and even more revealing a lewd and lascivious that only senior literati can understand, and it can also be seen from the exquisiteness of this Lianzhu mechanism, which is natural - just like **inserted** in general.

Is there anything more compatible than these two?

This kind of bead gun, with a very clever design, resembles a lute, and is capable of firing twenty-eight rounds in a row.

Be sure to note that it's a burst shot! In this way, it not only solves the problem that the old firebolt is ignited with a fire rope and is susceptible to the effects of wind, rain and moisture, but also greatly improves the lethality.

This kind of machine gun was more than 200 years earlier than the machine gun first invented and used by Europeans, and its power and superiority surpassed that of similar firearms of the world powers at that time.

It is understandable why Lian Zining is so excited, since human beings began to use firearms until the 21st century, what is the most ferocious murder weapon? Not nuclear weapons, not missiles, not artillery, the king of war, just machine guns! (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
