Chapter 382: Perfection and Improvement of the Divine Arm Bow!

With Zhu Gaoxian's continuous orders, the Ming Dynasty and the opposition suddenly became shaken.

The ministers on Zhu Gaoxian's side unswervingly supported him, after all, Zhu Gaoxian is the justifiable prince of the Ming Dynasty, and he can succeed to the throne at a glance, and he has fought in the east and west before, and his achievements in Liaodong are also quite dazzling, and even the Wa Kingdom was defeated by him, so they naturally support such a prince.

And the ministers who opposed Zhu Gaoxian, because Zhu Gaoxian had suppressed the court situation with his power before, they did not dare to oppose it on the surface, but they began to connect in private, and hit it off with the big families who had long been dissatisfied with Zhu Gaoxian, and were ready to join forces to give Zhu Gaoxian a little color.

In the words of a certain important courtier, now that Zhu Gaoxian is the crown prince, he doesn't take us seriously, so when he ascends the throne and takes charge of the Ming Dynasty, can we still be good?

I'm afraid that not all of them will be killed by him like slaughtering chickens!

Due to Zhu Gaoxian's series of measures in the south, the interests of the family were seriously damaged, and the Confucian scholars who were originally of high status, that is, those scholars of the Ming Dynasty, were also very harmful.

Even the sect of scholars in the world, Yan Shenggong is very dissatisfied with Zhu Gaoxian, after all, their signboard is there, which dynasty and generation are not polite to them, but Zhu Gaoxian didn't take Confucius as a thing at all, but pondered how to get more money and food from Yan Shenggong's mansion.

After all, Yan Shenggong has been in charge of the Tianxia Sect for a long time, and the land and property in the house have long been unknown, and there are even those who lend money, and the family background is extremely rich......

In the face of such a strange political situation, Zhu Gaoxian didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, but ran to the military camp outside the city all day long, and later simply lived in the military camp.

In his opinion, the most important thing at present is to seize the time to use Yue Fei's skills to train the army, instead of being dragged down by these pickled things in the court.

Otherwise, he will sink deeper and deeper and deeper like a prey caught in a spider's web.

Only by first firmly grasping the army in his hands, and then training it into an elite soldier like Yue Fei's Beiwei Army, can he stabilize the situation.

Only a military victory can allow him to completely stabilize the situation!

Therefore, in the recent past, Zhu Gaoxian threw the affairs of the court to Yang Rong and Xia Yuanji, and he concentrated his energy on the military camp outside the city, and even moved all the skilled craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry.

"It's still a little bit off."

Zhu Gaoxian took the freshly baked divine arm bow, and after firing a few shots, he looked at the target brought by the soldiers and frowned slightly.

I don't know what's going on, the Divine Arm Bow developed by the Ministry of Engineering according to the drawings, whether it is in terms of power, or in terms of accuracy and range, there is still a big gap with what Yue Fei said.

The original Divine Arm Bow can pierce through the iron armor 300 steps away, and it only takes a breath to rewind it, and the reed can support up to 12 launches, which is actually a powerful large crossbow arrow.

In Zhu Gaoxian's view, this divine arm bow can be called the pinnacle of individual weapons in the era of cold weapons, with a range of up to two or three hundred meters, and an estimated muzzle velocity of fifty or sixty meters.

But now these in his hands can only be regarded as relatively strong crossbow arrows at most, and they are far from reaching the power of the divine arm bow that Yue Fei said.

"In my opinion, the material of the string is not good, and there are some problems with the crossbow machine, so your divine arm bow is not powerful enough."

In the past few days, Yue Fei also tried it, and he said in a deep voice:

"Now, this is only half the level of the Divine Arm Bow at most, and it should be enough, but if you want to sweep the Tartars with this thing, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult."

After all, the Tatars were very good at cavalry and archery, and the cavalry was even more ferocious, and if the Ming army could not seal them with long-range weapons, it would be tantamount to a pipe dream to defeat the cavalry by relying on the infantry alone.

Zhu Gaoxian swept the Divine Arm Bow in his hand, shook his head and said:

"Since we are all ready to destroy the Tatars, we must be fully prepared."

"If you don't get the god arm bow, you can't just rely on a long-handled heavy axe, although the army is still quite strong now, but the Tatars have been fighting on the steppe for a long time, and they are not weak and can be bullied."

Although Zhu Gaoxian despised these nomadic races strategically, he attached great importance to them tactically.

After all, the Tatars are different from the short soldiers of Korea or the Japanese Kingdom, these aliens on horseback are not only good at riding and shooting, coming and going like the wind, but also all the people are soldiers, very fierce, how many Central Plains dynasties have suffered big losses in their hands.

I must not be like the Ming Dynasty's "Baozong", and end up with a name that will be forever ridiculed in the history books of future generations......

Although the Great Song Dynasty was relatively cowardly, its financial resources were amazing, and although it was defeated and retreated by the Jin State, there was never a shortage of materials for making weapons.

The Ming Dynasty has only been founded for a few decades, the people are withering, and many years have not passed since the Jingjing, so the financial resources of the imperial court are still lacking.

Let's take the materials used to imitate the Divine Arm Bow, the cow tendon used to make the crossbow string, and the wood and glue used to make the crossbow machine, the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry said that the Ministry of Household has tried their best, but the delivery is still a little unsatisfactory.

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxian shook his head.

In his heart, this time to fight with the Tatars, it is not only necessary to equip the army with a divine arm bow, but also with crossbow arrows that can be fired continuously, otherwise the infantry will suffer a lot in the guerrilla of the Tatar cavalry.

"I'll go back and talk to the household department, and by the way, let Jinyiwei's side speed up a little faster."

Zhu Gaoxian looked at the soldiers who were working hard to train the formation not far away, and talked to Yue Fei in his mind:

"If you catch a few more corrupt officials and raid your home, I won't believe that you won't be able to make money......"

Yue Fei's expression remained unchanged, he was Yue Wumu, who was famous in China, but he was not a capable minister like Xiao He, so he didn't say much about Zhu Gaoxian's thoughts.

"At this time, the army needs to be rigorously trained, and against cavalry, the military formation is also very important."

"You're busy next."

When Zhu Gaoxian heard this, he also sighed slightly.

The old man is seriously ill, the undercurrent of the court is surging, and families everywhere are holding back a stomach full of bad water, and they are catching up with foreign invasions, and they want to take a bite of Daming......

However, the current situation has not reached the most dangerous scene, so Zhu Gaoxian only sighed slightly, and his face was resolute again.

What about internal and external troubles, now is the right time to give yourself a chance to cut through the mess quickly!
