Chapter Eighty-Nine--Set

Although Zhang Yun asked himself that he was not afraid of their ghostly tricks. But he is not a person who allows others to calculate, but does not fight back.

So, after a little consideration, Zhang Yun immediately got up and went straight to Bao Dafang, and after conspiring with Ma Yongcheng, he went straight to the palace without stopping......

In the past two years, Zhengde has learned the lesson that he almost lost his life and the country, but he has also been quite diligent in government.

But as the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change!

Although Zhengde is much better than before. But he is still not as diligent as his son, once he has a heart. That's really nine cows, don't try to pull his heart back.

Therefore, Zhang Yun pounced in the Qianqing Palace, and immediately found the main owner in the back garden......

"Oh, the Taoist is not enjoying happiness in the Taoist temple, why do you have time to come in and find me today? But you're just in time, the so-called front-loading rifled flintlock pistol you presented last time, I'm tired of playing with it, is there anything new lately? ”

As soon as he saw Zhang Yun's figure, Zhengde immediately pounced excitedly.

Hearing Zhang Yun, he smiled bitterly, in order to maintain a good relationship with this prodigal emperor, he has tried his best to please him in the past two years.

He even did not hesitate to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to manufacture for him in small batches, near-modern guns, front-loading rifled flintlock pistols and accompany him to hunting......

And now he actually told himself that he was tired of playing! For a while, Zhang Yun was messy!

Zhengde didn't care what Zhang Yun thought in his heart, and after he pounced, he asked again and again, what kind of good things did this mysterious Taoist who can often bring new things to him today?

was shaken a few times by Zhengde, and Zhang Yun had a flash of inspiration. I didn't know how to start my own topic, but now I have a good starting point......

"Speaking of this front-loading rifled flintlock pistol, by the way, I wonder if the emperor wants to go to the manufacturing workshop to have a look?"

"Because since the emperor is tired of playing with this kind of gun, why don't you go and see if there are any other guns to play with?" Zhang Yun said bewildermently.

Zhengde's eyes lit up suddenly, this kind of gun was indeed more fun than most bows and arrows, and the range was long and accurate. I'm tired of playing now, but if I can go to the manufacturing workshop to have fun. I think there will be a lot of good things to discover. Zhengde is still quite confident in his own eyes.

So he hurriedly said, "Then what are you waiting for?" Dao Chief, you lead the way, let's go......"

All the way to the outside of the city, in front of Zhang Yun's self-made artificial waterfall, Zhengde was wondering where the workshop was, but Zhang Yun had already taken the lead in getting off the horse and entering the cave......

After arriving in the belly of this huge mountain, Zhang Yun took Zhengde to visit many machines that he had imitated that could be driven by water power. Of course, the most important thing was to take out a few more ordinary front-loading flintlock pistols and stuff one into his hand.

And said: "Your Majesty, please see, the gun that was given to you earlier was used by Western nobles, and this gun can only be used to fight birds and perform, this is the gun that ordinary soldiers there can use, does the emperor want to try the power?" ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Yun's face was meaningful!

Zhengde was stunned for a moment, looking at the gun in his hand over and over on the surface. But I was thinking about it. "Look at the posture, this Daoist has something to say to me......"

There was no hesitation at the moment, and followed Zhang Yun straight to the shooting range!

"Bang ......"

Compared with the small-caliber front-loading rifled flintlock pistol deliberately made by Zhang Yun, the destructive power of this gun with a caliber of 19.5 mm caliber suddenly increased by several notches, although it was not accurate. But Zhengde is still like a treasure and keeps playing.

While playing, he shouted in his mouth: "Dao Chief, you should have given me this kind of gun a long time ago, the kind of gun you gave earlier, although the accuracy is good, but the power can only be used to fight birds, it is not something that men should play with at all, and I don't know what you said about those aristocrats in the West!" ”

When Zhang Yun heard this, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned a little arc. I thought to myself, "Can Lao Tzu tell you that is a trap that Lao Tzu deliberately set for you?" ”

On the surface, Zhang Yun said: "That's because the emperor is in the palace, so Poor Dao doesn't dare to offer real weapons at all, otherwise I'm afraid that those civil officials will jump again." ”

"You must know that they can't wait for the emperor to be powerless, and it's best not to go out of the palace, and they have to know nothing about things outside the palace, so they are a good emperor, in fact, even if it is a small-caliber front-loading gun, it is a huge risk to send it to the palace."

As soon as Zhang Yun's words fell, the gunfire also stopped, Zhengde's face was cloudy, obviously thinking of something?

But in the end, he didn't say anything, beckoning the eunuchs to continue to give him ammunition......

Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhang Yun stopped the eunuchs' movements and handed over a bag of lead bullets and gunpowder in person.

"It's not fun to let others reload, it's better for the emperor to load the ammunition himself......"

Before Zhang Yun finished speaking, a group of eunuchs jumped up, but Zhang Yun ignored it. The same Zhengde also seemed to be interested, forgetting the unhappiness just now.

He took the ammunition with his own hands and began to load the gunpowder in a rusty way......

Seeing this, Zhang Yun quietly retreated, and disappeared in Zhengde's eyes after a while.

Zhengde, who was having fun at this time, didn't care about it, this Taoist chief was really chattering, and now he must be preparing to make himself happy!

……

Half an hour later, Zhang Yun reappeared at the shooting range. At this time, Zhengde has already been able to load ammunition skillfully, and he is having a lot of fun!

After seeing Zhang Yun appear, he hurriedly greeted: "Dao Chief, look, those iron armors you have arranged here have been beaten by me, haha......"

Zhang Yun smiled, but he didn't pay attention to the words of the extraordinarily proud Zhengde, who had always been accustomed to using cold weapons, suddenly got this kind of hot weapon that was not too powerful. Of course, there will be a period of excitement, which is also human nature, and you don't have to pay too much attention to it.

Instead, he said, "This gun is powerful, but it's too slow!" ”

"yes, yes. If you can increase your speed and meet the bows and arrows in the hands of the steppe people, then the scene will be beautiful. Zhengde also wanted to say this, but Zhang Yun said it first, so he hurriedly sighed.

Seeing that the time was finally ripe, Zhengde realized this and no longer regarded this gun as a toy, so Zhang Yun took out the fixed gunpowder in his hand in a hurry. After showing Zhengde how to use it, he returned the gun to him.

Zhengde's eyes were shining, he was not a stupid person, Zhang Yun's actions just now, and the possible results, were all in his heart.

So he took the gun in Zhang Yun's hand, pushed away the eunuch who wanted to come up to be courteous, and began to load the ammunition himself, and the gunfire at the shooting range rang out again, but the density seemed to be even greater than just now, as if two people were shooting at the same time!

Deal with the attack of the civil service.

Zhengde launched a great purge.
