Chapter Ninety-Four: The Mystery of the Ages
"Take the world, you are crazy."
The county commander's eyes widened suddenly, he was shocked by more things today than he had ever encountered in his life, and he was shocked, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”
Take over the world?
It's insane.
He thought that Li Chao would make a small fight at most, occupy Qiongzhou, be a pirate, and occupy the mountain as the king, but now Li Chao told him that he not only wanted to occupy the mountain as the king, but also counterattack the mainland and compete for the world.
"Do you know that the Jurchens are not full of ten thousand, and they are invincible." The county commander roared excitedly, "Now the number of Jurchen Eight Banners is more than 10,000? With the coating, it's already hundreds of thousands. ”
The so-called Baoyi, is the traitor, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, many Chinese sons and daughters rose up to resist, but there are also people who choose to surrender and be a dog of the Manchu wild boar, these traitors with the blood of their compatriots after dyeing the red crown, they became the Manchu wild boar's clothed slaves, and they are complacent.
"Even powerful vassal kings like Sanban and the Zheng clan have been exterminated, do you think you can overthrow the rule of the Jurchens?"
"You've changed."
"What did you say?"
"I said you changed your allegiance to the Manchus." Li Chao said with a smile: "At the beginning, you accused me with righteous words, but now you are worried about us." ”
Li Chao was very happy with this change, "As for you saying that I can't overthrow the rule of the Manchus, I don't agree. ”
"First, it is good that the Jurchens are not satisfied with 10,000 and are invincible, but that was the Jurchens when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, not the current Jurchens, and the current Jurchens are just their descendants, and it is unfair to equate the descendants who are lazy in enjoyment with the brave and enterprising ancestors."
"Second, Sanban and Zheng seem to be strong, but in fact they are the generals of the defeated army, the dogs of the defeated family, they failed back then, and they have not grown at all for so many years, and failure is expected."
"Third ......." Li Chao stretched out three fingers, "Now the situation has changed." ”
"Now is not the era of cold weapons, but the era of hot weapons, hot weapons eliminate cold weapons is an inevitable trend, and coincidentally, we have the most advanced hot weapons weapons, I can proudly boast that our hot weapons are in the leading position in the whole world."
Li Chao raised his hand, grabbed a musket, pulled the safe, and pulled the trigger on a vase in the room, and with a 'bang', the vase shattered, and shards were scattered everywhere.
"It's our musket, it's easy to reload, and it doesn't get wet." Li Chao said: "As long as a musket army shoots at the enemy in a formation without stopping, no matter how fierce the cavalry is, it will kneel." ”
"What's more, we can't have only one army of muskets...... In the future, we will equip all our armies with this weapon, and it will become the standard equipment of our army. ”
"Divine Machine Battalion ......." The county magistrate chanted the name, and Li Chao's words reminded him of this name that had once been brilliant in history, "But ......." ”
Didn't the Divine Machine Battalion fall?
"We're not the same as the Divine Machine Battalion." Li Chao said: "Although the Shenji Battalion was the world's first firearms unit and achieved brilliant results, from the current point of view, the Shenji Battalion is actually outdated. ”
Li Chao was a little sorry.
As the first hot weapon army killed from the era of cold weapons, the existence of the Shenji Battalion has a very important historical significance, if the Ming Dynasty could pay attention to the Shenji Battalion, keep innovating in firearms, the wild boars of the Manchu Qing Dynasty want to enter the customs, I am afraid it will not be so easy.
But it is a pity that although the Shenji Battalion was one of the three major battalions of the Ming Dynasty, it did not study and innovate in firearms, but continued to corrupt and degenerate, and when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the Shenji Battalion had been completely abolished.
"But we are different, we value science and technology, we will continue to innovate in weapons, and we have the ability to promote weapons to the entire army, which is why I dare to stand up and overthrow the Manchus."
"In my eyes, the wild boars of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are nothing more than paper tigers, and sooner or later they will be swept into the garbage heap of history by me."
The county commander's lips squirmed, he wanted to say it but didn't know how to say it, and after a long time, he said in a daze: "You are too optimistic." ”
"It's not optimism, it's confidence." Li Chao used a magic trick to grab a vase fragment and pull it over, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was a vase fragment that slowly flew into Li Chao's hand as if it was grabbed by an invisible big hand, "What do you think?" ”
The county commander's eyes bulged, as if he had seen a ghost, "Who are you?" ”
"My name is Li Chao." Li Chao said his name with a smile.
"You're a god?"
"No, I'm human."
"Immortals?"
"Remove the fairy word."
"Mentoring immortals?"
"Sort of, but it's not an immortal who has been taught by an immortal, but a strange person." Li Chao casually made it up, "The family teacher has been cultivating for 800 years, and after coming out of a retreat, he pinched his fingers and found that the world was taken by the barbarians outside the gate, and he was extremely angry, so he specially sent my disciple out of the mountain to overthrow the Manchu Dynasty." ”
Li Chao raised his hand and cast a magic trick again, and a small whirlwind appeared out of thin air, blowing away the dust on the ground, "In addition, the family teacher also deduced the future, and learned that in the next few hundred years, science and technology will be the mainstream, so he specially ordered me to develop a technology called science to make my Huaxia Erlang stand on top of the world." ”
"It turned out to be a master disciple of the immortals." The attitude of the county order has changed, looking at Li Chao with a hint of awe, he has been cultivating for 800 years? Extrapolating the future? Isn't this an immortal? What is an immortal's apprentice? Of course, the little immortals, "What is science?" ”
"A kind of truth." Li Chao explained, "Science is a kind of truth between heaven and earth, which expounds the root of all things in the world, such as why apples fall to the ground, why the earth rotates, why the sun is far and near, etc., all of which are in science." ”
"Why is the sun so far away and sometimes near?" The county magistrate immediately asked why the sun was sometimes big and sometimes small, which was very important to him, because it was related to an interesting story about Confucius, a sage of Confucianism.
When Confucius was on a study tour, he heard two children arguing about the distance of the sun, and one child said, "When the sun first rises, it looks as big as a car cover, and at noon it looks as small as a pan."
A child said, "When the sun first rises, it feels cool and chilly, and at noon it feels as hot as putting your hand into hot water, which is the reason why it is hot and cool."
Confucius couldn't answer it at the time, so he said, 'I can't answer this question, so I'll ask someone more learned in the future, and I'll answer you again,' and this question became a mystery for the ages.
