Cao Mo withdrew from the main hall, and Emperor Wanli said with great satisfaction: "Guocheng, you are very remarkable, with a hundred soldiers, you defeated a hundred family members and two hundred soldiers, you are a talent to lead soldiers." ”

Guo Cheng said: "Long live the praise, what Guo Cheng is right is just a rabble, if you deal with the elite soldiers, it may be a different result." Once the opponent led by Cao Mo is Jinyiwei, he will inevitably watch from the wall, and the family has not been in the battle array, and once he is injured, he will collapse. That's why this time Jinyiwei defeated Zhang Jingzhi's team with zero casualties. ”

Wanli knocked on the book case and muttered: "I see, I thought that the more people, the better the chance of winning." Then when you recruit soldiers, it is not a prank to ask recruits to smear their faces with blood. ”

Guocheng smiled bitterly: "Long live, am I so unbearable in your mind?" The battlefield is extremely bloody, and if you don't have the courage, you will definitely lead the army to lose the war that should have been won. Why was Meng Yuan invincible in the Song and Jin dynasties, but Taizu was able to beat them to lose their armor and flee with wolves? Some people say that Meng Yuan was influenced by Han culture and lost the spirit of martial arts. Wrong, big mistake and very wrong, this is not a problem with Han culture at all. If so, where is Emperor Taizuwen placed? The reason why Meng Yuan retreated was because after they invaded the Central Plains, they basically did not fight, and after the old soldiers died, the new soldiers were not tested by blood and fire, and naturally they could not win against Emperor Taizu's iron-blooded army. ”

Wanli stared at Guocheng for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Guocheng, is your surname Zhang?" ”

Guo Chengqi said: "My surname is Guo, how can I think so?" ”

Wanli muttered: "It's really not, Teacher Zhang has been dead for more than thirty years. It's been a long time since I've heard such deafening statements. Guocheng, now I want to reward you sincerely, if you have any request, just ask. ”

Guocheng knocked: "The minister, please print Qi Jiguang's "New Book of Discipline and Effectiveness" and release it to officers with more than 100 households in the Ming Dynasty. ”

Wanli said: "I'm right, Lu Shou, you will order someone to do it." If the Ministry of War refuses to pay the money, let it be taken from the inner treasury. ”

Wanli said again: "I heard that there are many young heroes in the battle with Zhang Jingzhi this time, have you brought them for me to see?" ”

Guocheng pointed to Wu Huping next to him and said, "This is Wu Huping, the general flag under my jurisdiction." ”

Wanli looked Wu Huping up and down, and said happily: "If you are a tiger general, would you like to come to my side and be my personal guard?" ”

Guo Cheng said: Don't do this, I have a talent, you just dig one, dig and dig, I won't be the commander of the light pole.

Wu Huping said: "Emperor Xie is Longen, but the last general thinks that I can learn more military knowledge next to the hundred households of the country and better serve the Ming Dynasty." ”

Wanli said: "Since this is the case, I will appoint you as the deputy hundred, follow Guocheng's side, take the Jinyi Wei recruits recruited this time, and prepare to serve the country anytime and anywhere." ”

On the way back to the home, the sky was overcast, the cold wind was blowing, and it was snowing heavily. Guocheng stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake and said happily: "Ruixue is a good year." ”

Suddenly, Guocheng was shocked: "In such a cold weather, how is Zhu Youzhen." I've been busy training new recruits these days, but I've forgotten about him. ”

He jumped out of the carriage and said to Wu Huping: "You go back to the country, I will go to the children's paradise to see His Royal Highness the Emperor." ”

When I entered Zhu Youzhen's bedroom, I saw a small ball under the quilt, and it seemed that he hadn't gotten up yet. At this time, it was already early (that is, 13 o'clock in the modern afternoon), and it was reasonable that he had already eaten lunch, so why didn't he get up?

Guocheng asked, "Princess, what's going on?" ”

Wang Chengen said: "Since the weather became cold a few days ago, His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun has been getting up later and later, and he simply won't get up today." I think His Royal Highness is afraid of the cold, I have been looking for you two or three times, but I have never found you. ”

Guocheng said to the bulge on the bed: "Ah Jian, get up." ”

The bulge moved, and a small head poked out of the quilt, blushing, and I don't know if it was hot or suffocated. Zhu Youzhen said: "Don't worry about me, let me die cold." Brother Guocheng is becoming more and more cold to me, he used to call me every day, but now he doesn't call me anymore. Forget it, I'm a poor worm that no one likes anyway, let me die of coldness. ”

Guo Cheng apologized in his heart, he was busy with the affairs of Jinyiwei in the past few days, and he really didn't take enough care of Zhu Youzhen, it seemed that he had a problem, so he said softly: "Ah Jian I'm sorry, I've been a little busy lately, I didn't come, forgive me, okay?" ”

Zhu Youzhen snorted, turned around, and gave the back of his head to Guocheng for appreciation.

Guocheng said: "However, I have thought of a new gadget, and Ah Jian will definitely like it." ”

Zhu Youzhen jumped up: "What's it, I want to see it." ”

Without waiting for Guocheng to answer, Zhu Youzhen got back into the quilt - it was too cold. Then one hand stretched out the quilt and dragged the clothes into the quilt, then the quilt squirmed for a while, lifted it, and Zhu Youzhen's clothes came out of the quilt neatly, and said, "Brother Guocheng, where is the fresh thing?" ”

Guocheng touched Zhu Youzhen's head and said, "Let's talk about it after combing my hair." ”

Wang Chengen took out a comb to help Zhu Youzhen comb his hair, and Zhu Youzhen urged him to hurry up.

Guocheng took out a piece of paper, used a quill pen - the same hair that was plucked from the tail of the chicken last time, first drew a circle, drew a net inside, and then drew a handle.

Zhu Youzhen said with a smile: "Brother Guocheng, it turned out that I wanted to make a fishing net to play." ”

Guocheng didn't answer, and drew a semicircular wooden stopper next to it, with a flat end full of feathers, radial.

Zhu Youzhen said: "What is this, I really don't understand." ”

Guocheng said: "This is called badminton, this is called a racket like a fishing net, and the difference between the fishing net is that the net is tighter and more elastic. Rackets to make two. If you hit the ball back and forth through a net when you play, and the ball doesn't catch, touches the net, or goes out of bounds, you lose. ”

Zhu Youzhen's eyes lit up: "This game is fun, Brother Guocheng, I want to play." ”

Guocheng spread his hands and said, "I haven't made it yet." ”

Zhu Youzhen took Guocheng's hand, rushed out of the room, and said, "Then what are you waiting for, let's make badminton first." ”

The craftsmen's chickens and ducks are considered to have bad luck today, one by one they are plucked upside down, and there are a large number of bald chickens and bald ducks in the garden.

The wives of the craftsmen opened their mouths and just wanted to scold, but when they saw that it was Zhu Youzhen and Guocheng who plucked their feathers, they retracted the scolding words again. These two people are as kind to themselves as a mountain, not to mention plucking their feathers, even if the chicken is slaughtered, they can't be scolded.

Zhu Youzhen carried a large handful of feathers in his shirt and said to Guocheng: "Brother Guocheng, I'll find a carpenter to make badminton, you go to rest, and we will play badminton together tomorrow." ”

Although Guocheng smiled and nodded, he said in his heart: "There is still a big problem that has not been solved, how can you sleep?" ”

Guocheng found Sun Yuanhua with a bird gun and a kidnapper.

Sun Yuanhua really has the characteristics of engaging in scientific research, and his eyes lit up when he saw two firearms. He almost snatched the firecracker, observed it carefully, and said: "Good thing, good thing, this is the best gun in our Ming Dynasty." ”

Guocheng said: "I think it's just two pieces of rags." ”

Sun Yuanhua was taken aback, put down the fire gun and said, "Does Gongzi think that there are better divine weapons in the world than this gun?" ”

Guocheng said: "Weapons are always improving, they used to be arrows, but now they are guns, if you hold on to the defects, you will suffer a big loss." ”

Sun Yuanhua nodded and said, "That's true." But listening to Childe's words, it seems that he has a big opinion on these two firecrackers. ”

Guocheng said: "I tried this firearm today, and now its accuracy is not good, pointing to the east and west, and the guide to the north, and the range is too short, and sending it to the battlefield will not make our soldiers feel cold?" ”

Sun Yuanhua said: "This is a common problem of firecrackers, alas, I can't solve this problem even if I want to break my head, so I started to study artillery." ”

Guocheng said: "I have an idea, it's not very mature......"

Sun Yuanhua hurriedly roared and interjected: "What's the way, say it quickly." ”

Guocheng originally had a hundred words of modesty below, but he was interrupted by Sun Yuanhua before he finished speaking, so he had to go straight to the point: "When I was playing with His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun a few days ago, I stood for a long time when the top was spinning, but when the top didn't turn, it couldn't stand. I wonder if the bullets from the guns could spin, would they be able to shoot farther and more accurately? ”

Sun Yuanhua frowned and thought for a while, and said, "If the bullet can rotate, it should be able to shoot farther and more accurately, but how to make the bullet spin?" ”

Guocheng patiently said: "If we engrave a rotating line in the barrel, and the bullet is driven by the line, will it be able to rotate?" ”

Sun Yuanhua said to himself: "Miaomiao, this should be fine, but it is a bit troublesome to reload the bullets, or reload the bullets from behind?" But if the bullet gets stuck in the barrel, the gun will explode, which is a ** annoyance. ”

Guocheng said: "If you use easily deformed metal to make bullets, won't the barrel get stuck?" ”

Sun Yuanhua said: "By the way, use lead!" Lead is used as a bullet, and a certain amount of fire is attached to the back, and it is connected as a whole, so that the gunpowder is neither more nor less. The shell is wrapped in paper, so that the gunpowder is ignited, the paper and gunpowder burn out, the bullet flies out, and it can be loaded with another bullet, and the reload is much faster. This kind of firearm is a divine weapon. ”

Guocheng reminded: "Wouldn't it be better if you put flint on a fire gun and let the flint hit sparks and ignite bullets?" ”

Sun Yuanhua laughed and said: "I understand, I understand, the creative power in my heart is spewing out, give me a blacksmith, and I will make the best gun for Gongzi." ”

Guocheng said: "The manufacturing method of this gun must be kept secret, if it is known by outsiders, Daming will be in danger, you go to blacksmith Sun to make iron, his craftsmanship is the best, and his mouth is also very strict, take it to me first when it is done." ”

Before Guocheng came back to his senses, Sun Yuanhua disappeared, and a "good" sounded outside the house. Guocheng couldn't help but shake his head, this Sun Yuanhua is really a science madman.

Early the next morning, Guocheng was woken up by Zhu Youzhen, who held up the two rackets and said: "Brother Guocheng, let's play badminton, the racket and the ball are ready." ”

Guocheng said while getting dressed: "It's done so quickly? ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled: "I'm staring at it from the side, how can it not be fast." ”

Guocheng said: "Let's go, let's play." ”

The two came to a flat ground together, put a separating net on it, and played badminton.

After all, Guocheng has played badminton for 3o years, and he is not much better than Zhu Youzhen, a novice, but if he abuses him all the time, he won't like to play, so sometimes he deliberately lets him and pretends not to catch the ball.

came and went, and the two fought for half an hour, and the onlookers gathered more and more. Guocheng wiped his sweat and asked, "Who wants to continue playing?" ”

Ten people squeezed over: "Me! ”

Zhu Youzhen was also tired, handed the racket to another person, and advised: "Be careful, return it to me when you run out." ”

Wang Chengen squeezed over and said, "Your Royal Highness, I have thought of another financial plan. ”

Zhu Youzhen said: "What strategy? ”

Wang Chengen pointed to the crowd: "So many people love badminton, we can make badminton and sell it." ”

Zhu Youzhen asked Guocheng: "Brother Guocheng, what do you see?" ”

Guocheng said: "Very good, kill two birds with one stone, on the one hand, the children's paradise has another income, and on the other hand, it has exercised the body of the Ming people." First, make 3 pairs of rackets, one for the saint, one for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and one for His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun. ”

Wang Chengen's degree was very fast, he learned Guocheng's sales experience, and let people play ball in front of the imperial store, and as a result, badminton was immediately all the rage in the capital. The fame of the children's paradise is getting bigger and bigger, and there are even foreign merchants who come to the royal store of the children's paradise to buy things.
