Chapter 282: Masonry
The ferocity of the Timurid warriors is well known. Although Zhu Di was not afraid of him, he still hesitated a little when he looked at the dark clouds rolling in the sky.
Gaisuyaddin refused to let go of this opportunity: "Your Majesty, the minister has no disrespect!" It is really Lord Zheng's ability and Daming's magic weapon that makes the minister's heart itch! It's a rare opportunity. I believe that Lord Zheng is also very happy to exchange martial arts strategies with his ministers, and I also ask His Majesty the Emperor and Lord Zheng to give advice! ”
Speaking very nicely, Zhu Di bowed his head and said, "What do you want to try?" ”
"It's just a matter of masonry!" Gaisueddin emphasized. "Your Majesty's Divine Machine Battalion is unparalleled in the world! But there are drawbacks. He looked at the sky, "If it rains, the musket will fail!" May I ask you, Lord Zheng, if you don't wear other weapons, won't your troops be defeated? ”
As soon as the words fell, the thunder rolled down!
The adults of Qin Tianjian trembled, and they didn't dare to face His Majesty's cold eyes: It's strange, it's clear that there is no rain today, why did such a big cloud suddenly float? !
Seeing that Lei Gong was angry, Bai Tang temporarily buried the words of persuading the grandson to attach importance to the hegemony of the sea.
Dozens of large umbrellas were quickly propped up on the school field, and the ministers were all hiding under the umbrellas, while Zheng He and Gaisuyaddin were still standing in the school field.
Zheng He saw that Timur sent a cavalryman to the school training ground, with a scimitar and a bow on his body. Raising his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were everywhere, and there was also a cavalryman in his own musket battalion, unloading his bow and sword, and only one musket remained.
Xu San couldn't help but worry: "What does Master Zheng think?" When it rains, the musket will be useless! ”
The best warriors of the two empires were on the verge of breaking out, and at the moment when the raindrops fell the size of beans, the war horses neighed, and the Ming cavalry raised their muskets, pressed their right hands the barrel, and a half-foot-long snow-light bayonet was picked out, sharp and sharp, taking advantage of the length and stabbing at the armor of the Timur cavalry! Timur's cavalry was caught off guard and raised his sword to open his bayonet, but his musket was as skilful and light as a spear, and his scimitar was slightly heavier in comparison.
Gaisuyaddin praised: "The combination of the spear and the firearm is powerful! ”
Timur also had a musket team, and fighting in the rain was their nightmare. Over the years, several kings have been pursuing a way to improve, but they are still hanging, and he wants to use the wisdom of the Ming Dynasty to solve this problem for himself.
Bai Tang's heart moved. Around the end of the Ming Dynasty, a powerful firearms expert invented a ramming flintlock pistol and improved the firing device of the bird gun. Solved the biggest defect of the bird gun with a fire rope ignition - fear of wind and rain. In a nutshell, a flintlock pistol uses a spring to press the flint inside the chamber to violently hit and rub on fire. It is a very important change in the history of firearms, but it is a pity - Bai Tang feels that it is a pity that these two words have appeared more often recently, but it is a pity that this technology can only be seen when the Qing Dynasty emperor hunted.
If he wanted to invent the flintlock pistol in advance, would God have chopped himself?
Bai Tang glanced at the sky, and a loud thunder exploded on the school training ground! The Timurid cavalry in the struggle was shocked, and was distracted by the tip of the opponent's knife to stab the armor!
Okay, good, Bai Tang was also shocked! I won't say okay, right?! Don't hack me!
After thinking about it, no, this thunder helped Daming win the battle, God, do you agree or disagree?
When Gaisuyaddin saw the defeat of his cavalry, he was not angry, but praised: "The soldiers of your country are not alarmed when they hear thunder, and they are not chaotic when they face the torrential rain, and they are admired!" However, although there are bayonets to compensate for the inconvenience of the musket in the rain, it is a pity that the problem of firing the musket cannot be solved. ”
Zheng He did not shy away from it, nodded and said: "Yes, it is inconvenient to use the musket on rainy days. But the two armies fight, and when they encounter accidents, they should be improvised. It is the best policy to turn the unfavorable passive into the active! ”
The emperor approved. Seeing the wind and rain raging, he was actually interested, and ordered: "Zheng He, let them see how powerful you are!" ”
Zheng He immediately gave the order. Dozens of human-shaped grass targets were erected on the school training ground.
Gasuyaddin also shouted to the cavalry in his native language.
Seeing this, the Timur cavalry was frightened by the thunder and lost the competition, and when he saw this, he took off the curved bow from his back while galloping on his horse, and stood on the horse's pedal with both hands, and shot arrows in a row.
Everyone only listened to the whining sound of the wind, Bai Tang knew that it was a decoration with perforated bone on the arrow, and the unique Turkic bow and arrow was called Mingdi, which was similar to the paper kite in the south of the Yangtze River.
The wind roared abruptly, and the Timur cavalry fired ten arrows in a row, all of which hit the red heart!
There was a cheer on the school grounds!
The emperor's jaw: After all, it is a nation on horseback, the combination of riding and archery, and such bad weather conditions, can hit ten arrows and ten hits, and the kung fu is good!
Taisun couldn't help frowning: "Zheng He's subordinates...... Okay, huh? ”
Bai Tang said calmly: "There is no problem!" ”
Taisun Qi said: "Bai Tang has such confidence in Lord Zheng? ”
The words fell, but he saw his own cavalry regrouping, and the galloping horses' hooves splashed countless mud and flew half a man high, mixing in the rain to blur the soldiers' vision, and the strong wind affected the trajectory of the bow and arrow. But in the wind and rain, the cavalry criss-crossed, the queue was neat, the arrows were not missing, and they were in the red heart! What's even more terrifying is that the first arrow passed through the grass target silently, so that the arrows behind it pierced one by one, and the scene was applauded with sky-shaking applause!
Bai Tang looked at Taisun's surprised expression and said with a smile: "Lord Zheng and his subordinates are on the ocean, and they don't know how many winds and waves and rains they have suffered, plus the sea is turbulent, so they can also cope with bad weather!" ”
Taisun's eyes showed a sudden look: "I see! ”
Gai Suyedin stared at the long arrows that pierced the grass targets, and his eyes showed horror: the Wuzi steel refined by the Ming Dynasty was so powerful, better quality than Tianzhu?
The emperor looked at his expression and smiled heartily with Bai Tang: Misunderstanding? It's okay to misunderstand!
There are only a hundred arrows in total. Zheng He's detachment got thirty pieces, and with the help of the sudden rainstorm, the effect was wonderful! Timur's prime minister's face turned green.
"Prime Minister." Gasuedin sighed, "You should take my word for it now!" ”
"Alas!" All the reluctance to be afraid turned into a lament. It's not my time!
"Your Excellency. The top priority is to return to China first to quell the rebellion, and then compete with the Ming Dynasty after the world is unified. ”
Even Timur died down, and the envoys of other small countries were even more peaceful. Only the samurai of the Dongying envoys, whom Xu San disliked the most, were eager to try their swords while holding their swords.
"Look at the Goryeo envoys, the Ryukyu envoys, and then look at the Dongying envoys!" Xu San couldn't help but complain, "How can they have the ability to make themselves so ugly?" ”
Bai Tang sneered, and was about to see the appearance of Dongying's envoys, Xu San hurriedly said: "Don't look at it, don't look at it, you have to wash your eyes if you see it!" ”
Bai Tang was stunned, among the group of Dongying people, the man led by him was about thirty-five or sixteen years old, unexpectedly elegant and handsome, and polite. There is no ugly beard on his face, if he changes into the clothes of the Ming Dynasty, he is a middle-aged beautiful uncle of the same type as Xu Danling in his previous life! But the rest of the men behind him are indeed as Xu San said, one by one is ugly.
Bai Tang couldn't help asking: "Who is the leader of the Dongying envoys?" ”
Xu San thought for a while: "Jian Zhong...... Turtle Secret? Or is it a ghost? Taisun, what's his name? ”
Taisun laughed and said, "You can call it whatever you want." I muttered in my heart: I don't remember it clearly......
As if sensing that someone was watching him, he pressed the folding fan in his hand to his chest, and bowed slightly and smiled at Bai Tang's very elegant chin.
Bai Tang also smiled.
"This girlfriend is pretty good-looking." Bai Tang casually praised him, and Xu San's heart was sour. I don't have a good impression of the Dongying Mission.
Seeing that the heavy rain was about to fall for another while, the emperor announced that he would return home.
When Xu San escorted Bai Tang to leave the hunting ground, Dongying's envoys rode to their side.
"Lian Gongzi."
Nakama Turtle is as dense as the most elegant orchid in the mountains, and his words and deeds all show his noble background and good upbringing.
"Mr. Girlfriend." Bai Tang raised his eyebrows, why, after Goryeo and Timur, Little Japan also found himself!
Nakama Turtle Mi said politely: "When I arrived in Beijing next, I heard the name of Lian Gongzi. If Lian Gongzi doesn't dislike it, he wants to ask you for a cup of tea from Songzhu Zhai. ”
Bai Tang smiled, his tea room in Songzhu Zhai can open a game of Three Kingdoms Kill!
Those who come are guests. Bai Tang arched his hand and said, "Welcome Mr. Best Friend to come and taste tea." ”
Xu San rolled his eyes. After they walked away, they said to Bai Tang: "Dongying, these people, the more polite you are on the outside, the heavier the calculation in your heart." Be careful. ”
Bai Tang also nodded and said, "You are right. ”
