Chapter 148 Use of Firearms
The genes of this old Fang family are really good, Fang Guan is in moderate shape, and his appearance is quite Sven, Li Xingze suspects that if he is born in the country of sticks, he will definitely be the idol of thousands of girls. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fang Guan didn't expect that Li Junshi, who was galloping on the battlefield in the Central Plains, was so young, although he had heard of it for a long time, but when he really saw it, he felt Xu Shouhui's courage to hand over the military power to such a young man so easily.
"I've seen Li Junshi!" Although Fang Guan did not hide the expression of surprise on his face, he still saluted, not thinking that he was young and had any slackness.
Li Xingze clenched his fists and saluted back: "I don't know if Gongzi Fang has anything important to discuss with me?" ”
This time, Xu Shouhui asked Li Xingze to come back, firstly, to let him explore the Fang family's tone, and secondly, to see what benefits he could get.
After taking a seat, Fang Guan did not answer directly, but asked, "I wonder if Li Junshi knows about the person Polo Timur?" ”
Polo Timur almost trapped Li Xingze and Zhang Junbao to death in Mount Emei this time, how can you not know.
Li Xingze nodded.
Fang Guan said depressedly: "Our family is just a corner of the sea, and they are concerned by their father and son, according to the report of the spies, Polo Timur has led the sailors to attack my Qingyuan in the near future!" ”
People who often drift on the sea should not be afraid of inland naval forces.
Li Xingze was puzzled: "Naval battles are different from water battles, why should the Fang family be afraid?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Fang Guan knew that Li Xingze was not a complete layman, and said with a wry smile: "Li Junshi should know that the Mengchong battleship is only suitable for the river, not the sea!" ”
The speed and strength of the ocean current and the river are different, and the Mengchong battleship completely relies on manpower to operate, and Li Xingze only found out about it later.
Fang Guan continued: "Most of the Yuan Court sailors are four-masted and twelve-sailed warships, while our family only has a few, and the rest are all two-masted warships!" ”
At this time, Li Xingze reacted, don't look at the Fang family's crisscrossing of the sea, but whether it is quality or quantity, it is not as good as the warships of the Yuan Court.
Li Xingze wanted to go to the sea to see and see, and muttered: "I want to go, but I don't know naval warfare!" ”
Fang Guan waved his hand and said with a smile: "We think so too, but my father heard that Li Junshi understands firearms!" ”
Speaking of this, Li Xingze remembered that at this time, the Yuan court should use firearms on warships, and couldn't help but ask anxiously: "How are their firearms equipped?" ”
Others don't understand, but Li Xingze, who came from later generations, understands very well that the battle between hot weapons and cold weapons is not in the same heavyweight class at all.
It wasn't until this moment that Fang Guan really paid attention to it, before Fang Guozhen said that Li Xingze knew firearms and must understand their use, they didn't believe it until Fang Guozhen talked about how the Xiangyang Red Turban Army fought Xinye, and everyone reluctantly believed it.
Now I heard Li Junshi ask about the firearms, and I realized that I didn't invite the wrong person this time.
At that moment, Fang Guan immediately explained with a solemn expression: "This is the basic equipment of the fire bullet bottle, the number is about more than 100, and there are six fire guns!" ”
"What is the range of the firebolt?"
"About 100 feet!"
Li Xingze immediately fell into deep thought, the ancient version of the grenade plus the firearm, although the quantity and quality are very average, but if it is against the Fang family who only knows how to engage in cold weapon fighting, it will undoubtedly be fatal.
Fang Guan did not disturb Li Xingze, this battle involved the Fang family's qualifications to negotiate with the Yuan Court, so naturally he did not dare to be sloppy.
Li Xingze suddenly raised his head and smiled: "I don't know what I can get in the past?" ”
Fang Guan hesitated: "This... I'm afraid I can't be the master, Li Junshi still has to talk to my father! ”
"Okay, I'll go with you!"
......
Li Xingze still chose the window seat on the second floor of Penglai Restaurant, and now he gradually likes this quiet feeling.
Li Xingze suddenly felt that there was someone next to him, and he glanced at it casually, it was a young girl, and he didn't look at it much at the moment, and continued to eat with the dishes.
Since Fang Le followed her second brother to Huangzhou, she couldn't stay, wandered around, and learned that Li Junshi had come back and was talking to Fang Guan, so she came to Penglai Restaurant to eat something when she was bored.
The young Taoist priest who was similar to himself sat upright, without squinting, and was very careful to pick up the vegetables, swallowing slowly.
Fang Le couldn't help but be a little curious, this restaurant was not cheap, there were almost seven or eight dishes on the Taoist priest's table, which was quite exquisite.
This Taoist priest tied a white silk cloth on his left arm and wrapped a red scarf on his head, and was undoubtedly a member of the Huangzhou Red Turban Army.
Fang Le was very amused, so he sat opposite Li Xingze and asked with a smile: "The Huangzhou Red Turban Army is really rich!" ”
Li Xingze raised his head, and then he carefully saw the girl's appearance, with willow eyebrows, a slight nose, and a small cherry mouth, a typical Jiangnan woman's appearance.
Li Xingze immediately looked at the dishes on his table, and couldn't help but secretly say that he must have served so many dishes to himself unknowingly. At the moment, he smiled awkwardly and said, "The girl is smiling!" ”
Li Xingze pointed to the dishes on the table and said casually: "Let's eat together, I can't finish it alone anyway!" ”
Fang Le was also born in the rivers and lakes, so he didn't pay so much attention to it, nodded his head, and also picked it up, and asked, "Little Taoist, what do you do in the Red Turban Army?" ”
In the entire Huangzhou City, there is no one who does not know Li Xingze.
Li Xingze guessed that this should be from outside, and after pondering for a while, he replied: "I just give people ideas!" ”
Fang Le pursed his mouth, he didn't seem to believe Li Xingze's words at all, he was so young, it was almost the same as doing things for others, and he didn't expect that Taoist priests also loved to brag.
However, people kindly invited themselves to eat, so they didn't expose it.
At this time, someone suddenly ran to the second floor and saw Li Xingze and a girl eating at the table, and was stunned for a moment, but he didn't think too much, and then said loudly: "Military advisor, marshal call!" ”
Li Xingze nodded, turned back to Fang Le and smiled: "Take a step ahead of time, say goodbye!" With that, he followed the visitor downstairs.
Only then did Fang Le understand that there was anyone else in Huangzhou City who was called a military advisor besides Li Xingze, his long eyelashes trembled a few times, and the corners of his mouth turned slightly.
......
"Li boy, why did you agree to go to Fang Guozhen to help at once?" Xu Shouhui said strangely.
This Li Xingze is good at everything, but he is too lazy and usually doesn't want to move more, but this time he wants to go to such a far place, and he is quite happy.
Seeing that Zou Pusheng was also puzzled, Li Xingze thought about it, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Marshal, master, the Yuan army in each city has extremely strict control over firearms, and we almost didn't capture them!" ”
Every time he captured a city, Li Xingze sent people to search the arsenal of the Yuan army, but in addition to gunpowder, there was not even a firearm.
Others were busy collecting gold, silver and jewelry, but Li Xingze was collecting gunpowder, which was a joke among the Huangzhou Red Turban Army and even other Red Turban Army.
For such things as firearms, Xu Shouhui really doesn't look down on them, let alone Zou Pusheng, who has martial arts.
Zou Pusheng persuaded bitterly: "Li boy, those useless things are probably the reason why you agreed to go to the Fang family to help, you are important, and it is better to use less external forces!" ”
Xu Shouhui and Zou Pusheng had never seen Li Xingze play with the 'explosive bag', and they felt that it was better to attack the city and seize the land, or martial arts, but as for firearms, they were slow and heavy, which was very inconvenient.
Xu Shouhui saw Li Xingze, whose face was faintly darkened, so he comforted: "It's okay to go to the sea for a while, relax, but you have to come back as soon as possible, it is estimated that it won't be long before He Sinan will come to me for trouble in Huangzhou!" ”
Let these two people say everything, Li Xingze didn't even have a chance to distinguish between them, knowing that the concept could not be changed at once, and he didn't say much at the moment, so he resigned from the two.
I am afraid that only Li Xingze knows that the use of firearms is absolutely overwhelming.
Li Xingze left the Marshal's Mansion, and he was ambitious to let Xu Shouhui use firearms as soon as possible, but because of different concepts, this plan also fell through, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Speaking of which, every time he brought gunpowder back to Lao Tian, he didn't know what the progress was, so he went to Lao Tian's house.
When Lao Tian saw Li Xingze, he happily pulled him to the backyard.
Seeing a room full of explosives bags, Li Xingze was taken aback, and he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Master Tian, if you are not careful, our Huangzhou City will be finished!" ”
Lao Tian said mysteriously: "Please rest assured, now I have separated this room alone, and no one approaches except me!" ”
This multi-explosive bag was placed in a room so casually, and Li Xingze also thought that it was not a problem, so he took this opportunity to explain the general style of the 'grenade' to see if Lao Tian could make it.
Lao Tian pondered for a while, and said suspiciously: "Strategist, this thing of yours seems to be similar to the Yuan army's fire bomb bottle!" ”
"Huh"
Li Xingze was surprised: "Master Tian, do you still know about the fire bomb bottle?" ”
Where would an ordinary blacksmith know about the Yuan army's sea weapon, and the Yuan army has not yet used this kind of firearm in the army.
Lao Tian didn't explain, but said with a smile: "Isn't Li Junshi also well-informed, this thing, wait for me to study and study, and let's try it later!" ”
What Lao Tian's identity was, Li Xingze didn't bother to explore, what he was most concerned about was whether firearms could be used as soon as possible, so as to reduce unnecessary casualties among his own soldiers and horses.
This is also the real purpose of Li Xingze's trip, to see if he can seize some firearms and bring them back, so that the combat strength of the Huangzhou Red Turban Army can be raised to a higher level.
......
Fang Le asked quietly, "Second brother, do you know the origin of this Li Junshi?" ”
It is said that his sister has not seen Li Junshi yet, Fang Guan remembered the scene of seeing Li Xingze in the morning, so he smiled and said: "This person has a gentle demeanor, and he has his own hills and ravines in his chest, I heard that he returned from overseas, so I don't know if it is too detailed!" ”
While talking, Zhang Junbao and Li Xingze came to the inn where the Fang family stayed, and after knocking on the door and coming in, when they saw Fang Le in the house, wasn't it the one who had lunch at noon.
Li Xingze said strangely: "Who is this?" ”
Fang Guan explained: "This is the sister, Fang Le!" ”
Appearing in Fang Guan's room, guessing that it must be someone close to him, Li Xingze nodded, and couldn't help laughing: "Speaking of which, I'm going to help, I don't know if I can take care of the food?" (To be continued.) )
