Chapter 130: The Shock of the Two Firearms Craftsmen
Zhao Youcai bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the Five Thunder God Machine is the invention of Qi Jiguang to defend the Mongolian army on the northern front, the barrel of the gun can be rotated, and it is fired quickly in turn, causing major casualties to the Mongolian cavalry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Speaking of Qi Jiguang, Huang Taiji is a burst of shock, the Qi family army he trained, the Ming Dynasty and the border, after his death, the Qi family army declined, but that's the case, the remnants of the Qi family's army degraded in Salhu, but also caused huge casualties to the Qing army, it can be said that if Qi Jiguang does not die, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to reach today.
For Qi Jiguang, Huang Taiji admired it so much, and he thought that the continuous fire bolt might be Qi Jiguang's five thunder god machine.
Thinking of the Five Thunder God Machine, he couldn't help asking: "Since Da Ming had the kind of firearm that the two of them said decades ago, why is it missing now?" ”
With an embarrassed smile, Ren Changshou bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, although the Thunderbolt is good, it also has shortcomings that cannot be overcome. The structure of the Thunderbolt is complex, the operation is time-consuming, and it is difficult to form a battle formation in a short time during combat. And it was quite cumbersome to reload after firing the five guns. Therefore, it is difficult for the Thunderbolt to be put into the battlefield, and it is even more difficult to form an army. ”
"I see." Huang Taiji suddenly realized
looked at Zhao Youcai, and asked again: "Then what about the Five Thunder God Machine created by Qi Jiguang, isn't it already equipped in the Qi family's army?" Why can't I see the real thing now? ”
Ever since he heard Yanguli talk about the ferocious firepower of the firecracker, he has been obsessed with things and wants to get them out, and now that he has heard about the Thunderbolt and the Five Thunder God Machine, he plans to get these two firearms out to equip the Qing army.
Zhao Youcai thought for a moment before bowing down and saying, "The Five Thunder God Machine is indeed a kind of continuous firecracker, but it may be complicated to make or expensive, so it was not rebuilt after Qi Jiguang's death. By now, even the drawings may not be found, let alone the craftsmen who wielded the Five Thunder God Machine. ”
Hearing this, Huang Taiji said: "Don't hide it from the two, this time my army of the Qing Dynasty to conquer the Ming Dynasty encountered a militia in the Ming Kingdom, and they held a kind of continuous fire gun in their hands, and the firepower was extremely fierce, causing major casualties to our army. ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? The two asked in surprise.
Huang Taiji nodded, handed over the bullet casing and warhead in his hand, and said, "This is what was left after the burst of fire, and there was a smell of gunpowder in it." ”
Ren Changshou bowed respectfully, took the bullet casing and warhead, and looked at it carefully
Looking inside and out, I also smelled the smell of gunpowder in the bullet casings.
The more I looked at him, the more solemn he became.
After reading it, he handed the bullet case and warhead to Zhao Youcai's side.
said: "Please take a look at Master Zhao, your master Bi Maokang is also a firearms master who is not inferior to my master, you are his eldest disciple, maybe you can see some clues." ”
After taking the cartridge casing and warhead, Zhao Youcai also looked at it carefully.
The more he looked at him, the more shocked he became, and after reading it, he bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, please come to the person who has seen the continuous firing of the firing gun, and I want to ask the other party about his shooting posture and firing method." ”
"Bang bang." Huang Taiji clapped his hands three times, and five Qing soldiers came out, including three soldiers and two officers, all of whom were healed after being hit by an on-board Type 81 rifle. It turned out that in order to understand the matter of the continuous firearms, Huang Taiji not only sent Ren Changshou and Zhao Youcai, two firearms masters, to come over for questioning, but also called a few soldiers from Yanguli's team to come over for consultation.
Pointing at Ren Changshou and Zhao You, Huang Taiji said in a deep voice: "Listen, these two masters are the firearms masters of my Qing Dynasty Weapons Supervisor, and today Fenglian's will will ask you some questions, and you must answer truthfully and not be lazy." "I know that the Manchurians look down on the Han people, so Huang Taiji should warn in advance.
"Yes." The five Qing soldiers bowed and replied.
In the county town of ZL County, Kaifeng Prefecture, HN, in a large house, Zuo Liangyu, a tall and red-faced commander of the Aid Army, was drinking with the deputy generals Luo Dai, Daoxing, and the partial general Zhao Zhu, and the broken wine glass fragments on the ground.
Zuo Liangyu word Kunshan, Linqing people. The official is the general of the thief, the prince Shaobao, and the marquis of Nanning.
At first, he fought against the Qing army in Liaodong and was promoted by Hou Sui. Because of his combat bravery, he is good at shooting left and right. Although he doesn't know books, he is resourceful, treats soldiers preferentially, and is very popular with the army, so every time he goes to war, he will have military exploits.
Later, in the war to suppress the peasant army, he took advantage of the situation to continuously expand his troops, and became more and more arrogant and domineering.
In March of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen (1644), Ning Nanbo was sealed. After Zhu Yousong, the king of Southern Ming Fu, ascended the throne, he was promoted to marquis and guarded Wuchang. At this time, Ma Shiying and Ruan Dacheng in the Hongguang regime used things to exclude the Donglin party. He protected the Donglin Party and had personal ambitions, so he raised troops from Wuchang on March 23 of the second year of Shunzhi (1645) and marched into Nanjing in the name of the Qing monarch. Not long after, he died of illness in the Jiujiang boat. Zizuo Menggeng led the department to clear up.
"******, the **** Yang Shenwu actually impeached Lao Tzu for being timid and avoiding the enemy." Zuo Liangyu scolded while drinking.
It turned out that not long ago, the governor of HN, Yang Shenwu, impeached Zuo Liangyu for avoiding the enemy, and the imperial court demoted him to the rank of capital secretary and ordered him to make meritorious service for his crimes.
Adjutant General Luo Dai said: "I think he is blind, in July, we were in Tianjiaying, crossed the river to attack Liukou, killed, captured many people, in August, Lao Hui led the army to attack Kaifeng Fucheng, burned Xiguan, we fought in Yanling, Fugou Lao Hui, and later because of the pursuit of Lao Hui Hui was besieged in Jiashan, the food was exhausted, the marshal almost committed suicide, we fought desperately to rush out. Doesn't he know these things? ”
"These **** civil officials are really not fucking things, they don't have the ability to govern the place, they can make chaos everywhere, they come to help them wipe their butts, and they stink us with shit." Dao Xing scolded indignantly.
The more he listened, the more angry he became, and he "snapped" and took another wine glass, Zuo Liangyu gritted his teeth and said: "****** Yang Shenwu, he is looking for trouble with Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will not let him have a good time, starting tomorrow, Zhao Zhu will lead his troops to disguise himself as bandits, make trouble around Kaifeng, rob silver and rob women, making him uncomfortable." ”
"Good. It's a good idea. Luo Dai said happily.
Zhao Zhu asked: "Dashuai, when we rob silver and women, do we want to kill people and set fires?" ”
Zuo Liangyu pretended to be deaf and dumb, pretending not to listen.
Seeing this, Dao Xing reprimanded: "Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid, if you don't kill people and set fires, are you still like a bandit?" Besides, it's not the first time you've done murder, arson, and robbing women, do you need to talk more? ”
"Humble duty understood." Zhao Zhu replied with a smile.
In the late Ming and Ming armies, Zuo Liangyu's army had the worst military discipline, and everywhere he went, he indulged the soldiers to plunder, and he was completely a group of bandits.
Soon, the people around Kaifeng were unlucky, the daughter of the family was snatched away by bandits, the daughter-in-law of that family was hanged, and the rich people were copied and killed.
More and more people were victimized, including poor families and landlords and rich people, so they went to Kaifeng Mansion to complain, and the documents requesting the officers and soldiers to go out of the city to suppress bandits flew to the governor's yamen in Kaifeng City.
With a "snap", HN Governor Yang Shenwu took the case, and said with a pale face: "Zuo Liangyu, a dog thief, is a dog with guts, and he actually set up for a bandit, and the old man wants to go to the book to join him." ”
Yang Shenwu knew in his heart that this was Zuo Liangyu's revenge for his impeachment.
Yang Shenwu word Nianer, number Cuiping. A native of YNML County. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, he was a scholar and an official of the Hanlin Academy. In the winter of the eleventh year of Chongzhen, he summoned the platform, talked like a stream, drew the ground into a picture, and the emperor was great, and then he was promoted to the right to the imperial history, and the governor was Shuntian. Hong Chengchou was trapped in Songshan, and Qin gave the sword above and ordered the governor of Shenwu, Liaodong Ningyuan, to go out of the customs to save Songjin. Chongzhen died of illness in Fengrun in the fourteenth year.
"My lord, the distant water can't save the near fire, go to him and wait for His Majesty's holy decree to punish him, it will be too late." Kaifeng prefect Tang Bi said anxiously.
During this time, every day, several counties under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture will report official documents that the people were killed and robbed, which all have the same meaning, send troops to suppress bandits.
He Kaifeng Mansion on more than 200 fast catches, how dare to go out to suppress bandits, he went to ask Kaifeng General Chen Yongfu for help, after some guidance, he woke up like a dream, it turned out that those so-called bandits were Zuo Liangyu's soldiers.
There was no way, so he had to report the matter to his boss, Governor Yang Shenwu.
Listening to Tang Bi's words, Yang Shenwu said with an unhappy face: "Then what do you say to do?" You can't go and cut him with a knife yourself. ”
"This and that. I'm just saying that if you can't control this surnamed Zuo, you can find someone who can take care of him, and when this big Buddha goes, you can definitely suppress the goblin of Zuo Liangyu. ”
"Big Buddha?" Yang Shenwu said, looking at Tang Bi with a puzzled expression.
Tang Bi smiled slyly and said: "The number of feudal feudal seals in the world is in the middle of the world", and then stopped talking.
"yes, how did I forget about him. Let's go, let's go to King Zhou's mansion, with the wisdom of King Zhou, he will not sit idly by and watch the surname Zuo do nonsense. Yang Shenwu said happily.
Under the combination of soft and hard work of Zhu Gongfang, the king of Zhou, Zuo Liangyu bowed his head and calmed down the "banditry" that had plagued Kaifeng for many days.
"Yang Shenwu, let's ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see." Zuo Liangyu pointed in the direction of Kaifeng City and said fiercely.
Zhao Guohua took the loyal and brave corps all the way to SD out of HB and entered the territory of SD Texas Mansion.
