PS: This chapter is also missing, there are really a lot of strange things, I don't know how much is missing in more than 1.5 million words......

After receiving the order, the gunner was busy and said, "Duan Aiqing, what is rice?" ”

Duan Fei said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Weichen has drawn up a set of weights and measures by himself, and the meter is one of the units, one meter is equal to three feet, and three hundred meters is almost one mile away as everyone usually says." ”

Zhengde smiled: "One mile is one mile, what kind of rice are you making, no wonder I can't understand." ”

He looked at it with a telescope and said in surprise, "Duan Aiqing, that tree is a little smaller, right?" It's so far away, can you really hit it? ”

Duan Fei said: "Your Majesty, this new type of Franc cannon has an aiming star, and Wei Chen has calculated it with ballistics, which is very accurate, and the emperor will know if he doesn't believe that he will release a cannon later." ”

The gunner prepared the cannon in a blink of an eye, and Zhengde was surprised again, in fact, the four-sub-mother cannon rear-loading ammunition design used by the Franc cannon, that is, there are 'shells', each mother gun (barrel) is equipped with eight sub-guns (shells), usually the sub-guns can be pre-loaded with ammunition, and when needed, it can be stuffed into the barrel from the rear to ignite, in addition to the ignition system, the Franc cannon has begun to take shape in later generations of artillery.

Duan Fei casually took a torch and handed it to Zhengde, who asked in surprise, "Duan Aiqing, didn't you prepare a long bamboo pole for me?" ”

Duan Fei was stunned for a moment, and then sent someone to find the bamboo pole, Duan Fei said to Zhengde: "Your Majesty, this new artillery is very safe, and Weichen has personally lit countless cannons." ”

Zhengde said happily: "Really? Then I don't need a bamboo pole anymore, everyone cover their ears and step back a little......"

Zhengde was about to light the fire in high spirits, Guo Zhen and Zhang Rui made a big jump, they hurriedly dragged Zhengde back, and shouted: "The emperor's dragon body, how can you easily get into danger?" Never! ”

Zhengde helplessly waited for the bamboo pole tied with the torch to arrive, he and everyone hid behind the sandbag, and with the help of everyone, they held the bamboo pole for a long time before lighting the fire twist, and then Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen stepped forward and threw Zhengde to the ground, Duan Fei shook his head helplessly, and enjoyed the wonder of the roar of the artillery alone.

I heard a loud bang on the ground, the barrel of the cannon jumped violently, and a projectile erupted, and in the blink of an eye, a cloud of smoke and dust rose in the distance.

The sound of the cannon echoed several rounds, Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen helped Zhengde up, Zhengde hurriedly grabbed the telescope and looked into the distance, only to see that the small tree had broken and fallen aside, Zhengde was overjoyed: "This new Franc cannon is really powerful, if I had dozens of such cannons in my hands back then, I would definitely allow none of the Tartars on the side to escape back to the outside of the fortress, Duan Aiqing, you have created such a powerful new firearm, it is really a great achievement, why have you never mentioned it?" ”

Duan Fei replied: "Your Majesty, although this cannon has many advantages, but it has not been tested in actual combat, Weichen does not dare to act rashly and indiscriminately to ask for credit, not to mention that it is the responsibility of every Ming citizen to make more powerful new firearms to protect the family and defend the country, Weichen has only done a small thing, what merit does it?" ”

Zhengde patted his arm with relief, and was about to say a few words of encouragement, but Zhang Rui said: "Lord Duan, next time the emperor fires a cannon, you should prepare a longer medicine twist, so as not to tire the emperor." ”

Duan Fei didn't refute, but just ordered the gunner to reload and aim, and then said leisurely to Zhengde: "Your Majesty, Wechen heard that when you defeated the little prince of Tatars, you directly ordered the mighty general's cannon at a critical juncture, compared to this, this Franc cannon is at least a hundred times safer, I don't believe that the emperor saw Wechen in front of you, and ordered a hundred cannons in a row, if Wechen was killed, it was Wechen who was looking for death, if Wechen was not killed, the emperor would lose to Wechen A small request?" ”

Zhengde smiled bitterly: "Duan Aiqing, I believe that this cannon is very safe, why do you take the risk of betting?" I owe you several things, so I won't make this bet with you. ”

Duan Fei gave up the idea just now, he said: "Since the emperor doesn't allow it, Weichen has no choice but to give up, the emperor, when Weichen releases this cannon, let's go and test the musket, the two fathers-in-law, the emperor can always play with the musket, right?" ”

Zhengde suddenly said: "No, I have to order this cannon myself!" ”

"The emperor's ......" Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen were shocked and objected in unison, but Zhengde insisted: "Don't say it, I have made up my mind, whoever dares to be verbose will behead him again!" Duan Aiqing, bring the torch! ”

Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen both opened their mouths wide, and Duan Fei sighed: "Your Majesty, it's all the fault of the micro-ministers, and the micro-ministers ask the emperor to take back his fate." ”

Zhengde glared at him and said, "Even you want to go against my will?" ”

Duan Fei hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, when the emperor lights the fire, Weichen will be with him, and the emperor will ......."

Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen fell to the ground, hugged Zhengde's legs, and cried out: "Your Majesty, don't ...... it."

Zhengde snatched the torch from Duan Fei's hand and twisted it towards the fire, when the sneering sounded, Zhengde dropped the torch and laughed, Duan Fei turned around and bowed to Zhengde, then straightened his waist, blocked in front of him and said: "The emperor is mighty, Weichen is impressed, Weichen is wearing a talisman armor, even if it is ...... Wechen can also ensure that the emperor is foolproof, and I hope the emperor can take good care of Wechen's wife and children for Wechen......"

Duan Fei said very low in the last two sentences, Zhengde originally had some speculation in his heart, but after listening to Duan Fei's words, he put his mind at ease, and the monarch and the minister looked at each other and smiled, at this moment, the cannon slammed to the ground, and Zhengde saw with his own eyes that the muzzle of the cannon spewed out flames more than ten meters long, and his ears were also shocked.

Feeling that the earth was also trembling, Zhengde recalled in his heart that when he fought against Tatar, his blood suddenly boiled, and he suddenly hissed and roared: "Ah......! ”

Zhang Rui and Guo Zhen were shocked to get up when they heard Zhengde's voice, and when they saw that Zhengde was safe and sound, they were all relieved, crying and persuading Zhengde not to take any more risks.

Zhengde ignored them and laughed at Duan Fei: "Duan Aiqing, I'm very happy!" I'm so happy today! ”

Duan Fei knew what he was happy about, Zhengde actually liked to take risks, otherwise he would not have rashly gone out to fight with the little Mongolian prince, and it was impossible to personally conquer King Ning, since Jiangnan came back, he has been a good baby for a long time, and today he was stimulated to light the cannon with his own hands, and after the success of the adventure, his heart was extremely happy.

Duan Fei secretly shed a cold sweat on his back, he originally wanted to encourage Zhengde to fire the cannon himself, but when Zhengde really stood next to the cannon, Duan Fei's heart suddenly became nervous, although it is said that the safety of the Franc cannon is very good, but as the saying goes, I am not afraid of 10,000 but just in case, what if this cannon just blows up? Zhengde doesn't have an heir yet, even Jiajing, who might have inherited the throne, is dead, who will the Ming Dynasty fall into?

Duan Fei's words in a hurry were actually unsafe, he didn't wear the ice silkworm clothes at all, even if he wore them, he couldn't stop the power of the artillery exploding at such a close distance, and at that time he said that words were just a desperate fight, if the cannon exploded, then he and Zhengde would definitely finish playing together, even Guo Zhen and Zhang Rui who were lying on the ground were not spared, maybe the hundred officials would celebrate each other, because this explosion killed a hippie emperor, three traitors in their eyes, and find a little prince to inherit the throne, maybe even any big gifts will be exempted.

If God has eyes and the cannon doesn't explode, then Duan Fei will win the bet, and his relationship with Zhengde will go further, and Duan Fei can see from Zhengde's smile that Zhengde trusts him more.

Duan Fei took a breath, suddenly bowed to Zhengde and fell to the ground, and said loudly: "The emperor is mighty and secure, the emperor is benevolent and compassionate to the people, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Jinyi Wei saw Zhengde fire the cannon with his own eyes, he is the emperor, he actually did such a brave thing...... They were excited, and followed Duan Fei to shout in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live!" ……”

Long live the cry of the valley shakes the valley......
