Chapter 63: Lonely Can't Pick Up You Idiot?
A few miles south of Zhengyang Gate, there is a large teaching field on the outskirts of Beijing.
There are 5,600 people stationed here all year round.
Zhu Yunxi rode into the camp and watched the arquebus in action.
"Bang Bang!"
"Phew!"
After the shooting, the smoke filled the air, and the soldiers spat and almost cursed their mother.
"His Royal Highness King Wu, the effect of this arquebus is very average!"
Liangguo Gong Lanyu walked over, looking very bored.
During this time, he really didn't do anything, and stayed in the barracks every day to train soldiers.
Even if Lan Yu is not in the capital, someone impeaches him every day as usual, and the imperial historians throw a notebook when they go to work.
Anyway, don't suffer a loss, if the emperor is in a bad mood one day, he will do it to Lan Yu!
Earn without losing money!
"It's only been less than a month, and you've got hundreds of arquebuses?"
Zhu Yunxi looked at the hundreds of people in front of him, each with an arquebus, and was surprised.
Lan Yu seemed to have heard a big joke: "I asked them to make those things in the Ordnance Bureau, but they dare not make them?" β
The "bunch of things" he refers to are actually artisans.
In the Ming Dynasty, the status of craftsmen has been low.
If they do not do a good job, they are afraid that their lives will be lost.
Zhu Yunxi took a key part such as a fire gun and a gun pipe, and it was well-built, not like a shoddy product made in a hurry.
Compared with the legendary firearms at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the craftsmen in the early Ming Dynasty were full of ingenuity!
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers did not dare to use those firearms, for fear that they would not be killed by the enemy on the battlefield, but would be blown up by the firearms!
Of course, the craftsmen are not entirely to blame for the construction of firearms, and the main responsibility is the corruption of officers and the withholding of materials.
Originally, it took ten catties of iron to build a firecracker, but you only gave seven catties to the craftsman, and the various sand holes on the pipe wall made by mixing things with things were not enough to resist the pressure of the chamber when shooting, so could you not blow up the chamber?
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it was different, Zhu Yuanzhang cracked down on corruption in various ways, and his anti-corruption efforts were the strongest in the entire history of mankind.
Without corruption, the quality of firearms production is basically guaranteed.
"This arquebus has been burning, and the sergeants can't stand in a dense position at all, and the hollow phalanx you said restrains the cavalry is difficult to deploy."
Sapphire began to complain.
"And in the event of a windy day, this arquebus is even more unreliable, the gunpowder in the fire door is blown away by the wind, and it can't be hit!"
"I guess this thing can't be used in the northern battlefield!"
Practice is the only criterion for testing truth, and the problems that Lan Yu discovered were the weakness of the arquebus.
It works well in the south, but in the north, especially in cavalry, it is difficult!
Zhu Yunxi also found that his previous thoughts were a little too naΓ―ve.
Gotta the whole three-eyed gun?
You can do it.
The main thing is to get a flintlock pistol!
Replaced with a flintlock pistol, these problems that Lan Yu said can be easily solved!
The flintlock pistol has a powder pool cover, which will cover the powder pool relatively tightly, and is not afraid of windy weather.
Without the arquebus getting in the way, the soldiers in the line formation can be lined up closer.
The army also acted at night without fear of exposing the target with a lit arquebus.
Gotta get it out!
Zhu Yunxi decided to draw drawings overnight and get a flintlock pistol!
However, such an advanced weapon that has been around for hundreds of years is an absolute military secret!
Zhu Yunxi plans to check it himself.
......
Inside the Royal Palace.
The Jinyi Guard officials were busy with etiquette all day long.
The main work of the Jinyi Guard is the emperor's personal army guard, responsible for setting up a guard of honor, and correcting the mistakes of the civil and military ministers in the court.
Only a very small number of cronies are secretly patrolling and arresting and monitoring hundreds of officials.
After all, this can't be put on the table.
Although everyone understands it, it can't be said.
Since Li Bin joined the Jinyi Guard, his daily duty is to be a "guard", serving as a personal soldier for the emperor and carrying a sedan chair.
Although Emperor Zhu rarely did luan.
"Brother Li Bin, go to my house to have some drinks after you disperse?"
On the side of the Wulong Bridge, Jinyi Wei Qianhu Fu Rang came over.
Li Bin hugged his fists and said: "The Lord of a Thousand Households raises love, and he does not dare to disobey." β
"What did my brother say?"
Fu Rang leaned in and whispered: "You are His Royal Highness King Wu's person, and you are my Fu Rang's own brother, why bother to hold it!" β
As he spoke, he patted Li Bin on the shoulder and gave him an encouraging look.
"Yes!" Li Bin smiled, and his dark face could not see fluctuations.
Continue to stand guard and be on duty.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi finished drawing the drawings and entered the palace and went to the Wuying Palace.
Passing by the Five Dragons Bridge.
"Li Bin, how are you doing? Are you still used to being on duty in the palace? β
Zhu Yunxi has the attitude of a leader who cares about his subordinates.
"His Royal Highness King Xie Wu cares, and his humble position is very good."
Li Bin grinned.
"Hmm." Zhu Yunxi nodded, and then left.
"On duty in the palace, dare to lose your temper?"
A thousand households walked over quickly and scolded Li Bin.
Just because of the grin.
Li Bin looked at him coldly, there was no bird for him.
The thousand households on the opposite side are named Zhou Ji, who is the son of the Jiangxia Hou family.
Since joining Jinyiwei, this guy has come to find fault almost every day.
In Jinyiwei, most of them are the children of heroes, and everyone gets along quite well.
But Zhou Ji and Li Bin have never dealt with each other.
"Still not convinced? Do you think you can do whatever you want when you climb King Wu? β
Zhou Ji was humiliated by Zhu Yunxi because of his father, and he knelt down to King Wu in public in front of so many old subordinates to admit his mistakes.
This made their father and son hold a grudge all the time, not to mention that Li Bin also reported Jiang Xiahou.
And his Zhou family must support Huiwang Zhu Yunwen.
"Li Bin lost his temper on duty and dragged him to the class room to play thirty boards!"
As soon as Zhou Ji greeted him, several brocade guards stepped forward and wanted to take down Li Bin.
"Let go of Lao Tzu!"
With a shake of his arms, Li Bin broke free.
When Jin Yiwei, there are certain martial arts requirements.
If you can't fight, why should you be a guard to protect the emperor?
"Li Bin, I advise you to be arrested, if you dare to use force in the palace, be careful of being killed on the spot!"
A kind-hearted brocade guard scolded, in fact, it was a reminder.
"Mouthy!"
Zhou Ji snorted coldly and shouted, "Take it!" β
Gritting his teeth, Li Bin had to be arrested.
Zhou Ji patted his face and sneered: "In this forbidden palace, you are nothing!" Including your so-called backers! β
"Are you talking about Lonely?"
I don't know when, Zhu Yunxi turned back and stared at Zhou Ji coldly.
Talking bad about people behind their backs and being approached by the parties behind their backs, this feeling, not to mention how embarrassing it is!
At the moment, what Zhou Ji is worried about is not the question of embarrassment, but how to explain it.
"His Royal Highness King Wu has misunderstood, how dare you say that you ......?"
"Smack!"
A crisp slap rang out.
Zhu Yunxi made Zhou Ji stunned with a big mouth.
You may not know how much a big bidou hurts a person's heart?
Especially this kind of noble children who grew up with a golden key in their mouths.
Oh, Zhou Ji's temper looks pretty good.
He just stared at Zhu Yunxi and didn't dare to lose his temper.
"Smack!"
Another loud big bibag.
In front of a group of brocade guards, Zhu Yunxi unceremoniously slapped again.
You're not angry?
That loneliness makes you angry!
The lad is getting grumpy!
Zhu Yunxi shouted in his heart, how much he hoped that Zhou Ji could give some strength and make a move.
Even if you have this action!
Then he can unceremoniously behead him on the spot!
Zhou Ji is worthy of being an old brocade guard, and he is still calm in the face of humiliation.
"What are you? Dare to talk about loneliness behind your back? β
"Smack! Bang Bang! β
Zhu Yunxi came up and had eight big pockets, front and back, left and right.
After finishing the matter, he looked at Zhou Ji, whose head was heavy, and sneered: "In this forbidden palace, you can't clean up this fool alone?" β
Zhou Ji was very smart, he knelt down directly, and he didn't speak.
He knew that no matter what he said, he would be beaten.
Just don't talk about it, say less and make fewer mistakes.
If you talk back, I'm afraid that my face will be blown up by King Wu today!
There's something about this guy!
Zhu Yunxi had no choice but to stop.
People admit it, you can't keep doing it.
There are so many brocade guards looking at it, it's almost okay.
Glancing at Zhou Ji, Zhu Yunxi walked away.
