After the upgrade of the Type 1 Artillery, the name is still called the Type 1 Artillery. But technically, it has been pushed to the stage of the American Civil War in the original time and space. After completing the Gun Upgrade mission. Cheng Pan turned his gaze to the type of musket again, for the type two rifle that uses fixed metal bullets, Cheng Pan has to say that this step is too big. It's not like you can make this thing with a few craftsmen. For example, the boy Dai Zinc in the Kang Mazi era used a tunnel structure to make a 28-shot continuous bead gun, which already has the rudiments of today's machine guns. Now that social thought is not imprisoned by the thinking that "only sages and sages are high", coupled with the suppression of Confucian scholars in the Yuan Dynasty, and the environment in which craftsmen have not been fully discriminated against by society, Cheng Pan's policy of respecting craftsmen has no social resistance.

Without discrimination, being able to eat well, and having many peers competing and exchanging, the huge group of technicians in Cheng Pan's territory really staged a technological explosion. Many variants of the One Musket also began.

The finished product that Cheng Pan took out was a rear-loading paper-shell tunnel gun, which was pushed in from behind, and then gunpowder was added to the medicine pool with a special gunpowder horn cylinder, and finally the medicine pool was sealed and fixed with a crank handle. Then the flint ignited and fired. White smoke puffed out from the gap between the muzzle and the seal of the medicine pool, and this musket could shoot an average of four or seven dumb shots a minute, and seven shots a minute at the limit. This Dongdong is a product born in the seventies of the eighteenth century, and now Cheng Pan has no pressure to do it, and the lack of precision caused by manual grinding has caused air leakage, which has been reduced to a tolerable range under mechanical standard processing. This rear-loading gun model was still not finalized in the end. The main reason is that there is a powder corner on the body, and it always feels unsafe to operate. If you are not careful, it will explode at the Powder Point.

In the end, it was the paper fire caps and paper shell bullets that became improved conventional equipment. The Type II musket formulated by Cheng Pan at the beginning was based on all-metal bullets, and his mechanics still completed it with great effort regardless of the cost. However, it was a matter of cost alone that determined the failure of Cheng Pan's Great Leap Forward, and it was difficult to produce a large number of metal cartridge shells with a central primer with the current stamping equipment. Every time you hit a bullet, it's like hitting a work of art. Cheng Pan's black technology appeared in advance, and there was an embarrassing situation that he couldn't afford to use. Redesign ammunition for this. A cheap paper fire cap with a thundermercury evenly coated between two pieces of paper appeared, and in the form of a needle-point fire, this paper bullet covered with waterproof paint came into service. Although the bottom of the new No. 2 musket leaked, it could not be waved in the water. But the conditions for a large amount of equipment were met. A silk version of the Type II musket appeared. A large number of muskets in the territory have been revised, and since the longlance was converted to a musket a few years ago, there has been a second large-scale rearmament in the territory.

As for the metal bullets, which took the trouble to repeatedly stamp, now they are exclusively machine gun models.

When Cheng Pan was trying his best to prepare for next year's war, Japan in the distance made Cheng Pan have to pay attention to it, in fact, there was nothing, the situation in Japan was like a red sign on the small map when playing red alert, showing that you were beaten, and when you moved the mouse over, now the enemy army scratched you to death. That's right, that's it.

At this time, Emperor Gomura of the Southern Dynasty began to operate after receiving the intervention of Cheng Pan, a foreign imperialist. Tempted by a large number of cheap steel implements from the territory of the Compa Army. Some of the daimyo began to defect. The emperor of the Southern Dynasty, who had originally relied on the skin of the descendants of Amaterasu, began to rise to prominence, and with his own fame and influence, Japan's copper ore was mined in an endless stream and sold to the forces of the Republican Army. The kickbacks were provided to this agent by Cheng Pan, so that the emperor could control the territory more powerfully. But the crossbow army formed by the peasants, in addition to simple training, was essentially waste firewood.

In the winter of 1347, after another small victory by the crossbow army of the Southern Dynasty, the battle line was advanced several kilometers in the direction of the Northern Imperial Palace, which was a battle-level victory in Japan, and after a few more Northern Dynasties collapsed. Because the distance between the north and south of Japan at this time is only a few dozen kilometers. However, the commander of the Southern Dynasty, who was born in the public secretary class, was immediately happy and sad.

After all, the Ashikaga clan from the Northern Dynasty was a ruthless man who overthrew the Kamakura shogunate, and the decades of war created a lot of excellent soldiers, so with the full support of the Ashikaga clan and several other Northern Dynasty daimyos, 5o samurai participated in the night attack, and now it is not like the later World War II Japan implemented the spirit of bushido, and the whole army was broken at every turn. Nowadays, it is very laborious for a Japanese daimyo to train a true samurai, and it is necessary to cultivate his loyalty to his family from an early age, and train his fighting skills, courage, and morality. There are not many such samurai in a daimyo's family, and now several hardcore families in the Northern Dynasty have taken out fifty at once, which can be said to be a bloody investment.

So an Eastern version of the Spartan drama began, different from the deeds of the three hundred Spartan warriors in the West who defended the Hot Springs, the fifty samurai of Japan took the initiative to attack, that is, a night attack, and it was successful. The reason is that most of the peasant soldiers have night blindness at night, and at the same time, the crossbowmen have been fighting with the wind these days, and in this hand-to-hand combat, these samurai were cut in all directions with a single sword, only to hate their parents for not giving them two more legs, and a brilliant victory appeared. The Emperor of the Southern Dynasty lost almost all of his descendants, and more importantly, a large number of crossbows.

The crossbows were sent to the Ashikaga clan, and the lord was so surprised by the power of the weapons that his men destroyed them, but the Ashikaga clan did not agree and handed them over to his own descendants.

So the Northern Dynasty army once again pressed the Southern Dynasty like a dead dog, because the previous Emperor Gomura's own family thoroughly used to open for a while, it can be called a great defeat of the captain of the transport team to arm the Northern Dynasty army stronger, under the attack of the Northern Dynasty's crossbow army, in February 1348, Kusunoki Masayuki was still killed in Shijo (now Shijo City, northeast of Osaka) as in the original history, and nine months earlier than the original history. Cheng Pan's butterfly wings were slapped back by history. Emperor Gomura fled, but he did not flee to Yoshino Village, Nara Prefecture, as he did historically. Historically, after he fled to this place, the Southern Dynasty basically existed in name only. Now Emperor Gomura still has a lifeline, and that is the merchant house established by the Republican Army in Kii Tanabe, far away in the south.

When Cheng Pan got the news, the first sentence: "What's the matter with this TMD" Originally, Cheng Pan was still thinking about whether it would cause Japan to be reunified quickly after arming the emperor of the Southern Dynasty too strongly, but he didn't expect his assistance to be so weak. In fact, Cheng Pan didn't know that his assistance did speed up the pace of Japan's reunification, but it was not with Cheng Pan's expectations. If Cheng Pan knew the original history of Japan, the number of grass and mud horses that had stepped on his heart would be even greater.

The card of Houcun still had to be played, and for Cheng Pan, a Japanese government that was too strong was not a good object for trade, so a special fleet came to Kii Tanabe with a reinforced battalion of 600 Republicans. Although he sent troops, Cheng Pan was unwilling to help him fight like the Yankees supported Korea, and this army was only protecting the back village on the edge of the field, and it was not even considered to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes. The back village can go if you want to go, and you can come as you want. Gomura asked the merchant hall army to go north several times, but was refused. Just kidding, Cheng Pan doesn't have the project of conquering Japan in his current budget. As a result, Gomura left the merchant hall in a fit of rage, but no other daimyo was willing to send troops to confront the powerful Ashikaga shogunate on the bright side for the sake of an outdated emperor. In desperation, he had to return to the sphere of influence of the Republican Army, and the treatment that Cheng Pan equipped him with in the middle of the merchant hall was at the level of a king. During the refuge in the back village, a letter was issued and kept shouting to the north.

Well, the Northern Dynasty army, which was Yi Yong chasing after the poor Kou, decided to crusade against this back village, and the 3ooo people claimed to be 150,000 troops coming. For the Republican Army in Japan, trouble also came. The Zun army is under the city. At this time, it was Sun Tao who commanded the troops stationed in Japan. In front of him was a chirping messenger, meaning to tell them to withdraw from Japan and hand over the emperor, and the merchant hall to the Ashikaga shogunate for protection. After hearing this, Sun Tao yawned, waved his hand to call him back, and wrote the word "war" and handed it to him. The messenger didn't say anything and went back.

Sun Tao immediately excitedly held up the telephoto mirror image of the Japanese military formation 300 meters away. When the envoy entered the battle, Sun Tao asked twenty Type 1 artillery pieces to prepare. Because Sun Tao was bullying Japan and had never seen a cannon, he deliberately made the opposite side so close. However, this distance was too close, and the elevation angle of each gun was raised to the maximum, in order to give the delay lead of the shrapnel time to prepare.

But as soon as the Japanese military formation on the opposite side changed, Sun Tao shouted: "Fight." As soon as the command flag was pointed, the artillery that had been prepared for a long time began to fire. The results speak for themselves, this is not a war, it is simply bullying. After the shrapnel bombardment, five mortars began firing explosive munitions, sending bloody flames into the crowd.

In the face of such a blow, the Japanese army collapsed, but did not collapse. The first reaction of a Japanese soldier who had grown up in polytheism was not to flee after a nervous breakdown, but to kneel and ask God for forgiveness. So after a burst of artillery killed and wounded more than 800 people, the rest were taken prisoner.

Also frightened was Emperor Gomura, who was forcibly brought to the battlefield to watch the battle, under this ghostly blow, Gomura looked at Sun Tao with a hint of fear in his eyes. When he was collecting the captives, Houcun asked Sun Tao, "Does the Yuan Dynasty on the other side of the sea have the power of ghosts and gods in your department?" Sun Tao thought about it, Japan is alone overseas, and saying anything is not a leak of military secrets. So he replied: "This is not the power of ghosts and gods, this is the power of the Orthodox Dao, and it won't be long before we will have a decisive battle with the Yuan Dynasty." When Hou Cun heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Is your army going to return to the country?" Sun Tao said: "Sort of." Houcun hurriedly said: "Once your army succeeds in recovering the country, please allow Xiao Wang to claim to the Heavenly Empire." Sun Tao said: "I will bring your words to our Supreme Commander." As for now you need to gather men and horses to re-establish your country, now we are preparing to fight with the Yuan Dynasty, at most to ensure your safety, and will not help you take the north, you can do it yourself." There was a hint of disappointment in Gomura's eyes, but he politely thanked him and withdrew.

After this incident, Japan resumed the situation of coexistence between the north and the south, and after this blow, the forces of the northern dynasty retreated back to closely monitor the movements of the south, and at the same time claimed to various daimyo newspapers that the Mongols had landed in the south, and that Gomura had been killed. The whole of Japan needs to unite and so on.

However, immediately Gomura, with the support of two daimyo in the south, began to sing against the Ashikaga shogunate, claiming that he was using the volunteers to thwart the Ashikaga Son's plot to rebel, and now the Son's army has been defeated, and the rebels have retreated to the whole of Japan to fight against the thieves. Japan has strangely entered a phase of peace. The major forces are no longer burning the war, and they are fighting with their mouths. After a while, the Japanese daimyo knew that the real situation was that the army that destroyed the Miè Zun clan in the south came from the big 6 in the west, and it had not yet left, but an agreement was reached with the back village not to leave that small port. The various daimyo learned several key points, the first of which was that the army was very strong. Second, they support the back village, and third, they are constrained by some factor not to go north. Fourth, the Southern Dynasty still has to survive, but now the Southern Dynasty is not capable of destroying the Northern Dynasty.

Upon learning of his temporary security, the Northern Dynasty soon descended into infighting, and in May 1348, Ashikaga Naoyoshi and Takashi Naowei clashed with each other. The Japanese drama continued to be sung, and Cheng Pan stopped watching it. In the changes in Japan in the past few months, Cheng Pan used the most cost-effective way to maintain the status quo in Japan.

The 600 men fired only one round of artillery and did not even shoot a few bullets. This consumption is just small. The impact on the future preparations for a major war by the Communists was negligible, but the impact on Japan was that it prolonged the era of the division between the North and the South for a long time. Cheng Pan's butterfly wings completely distorted the history of Japan.
