Just when the boat turned back, there were several Yangzhou Wei reserve boats shuttling on the lake for routine patrol.

When Qi Jiguang saw it, he turned around and asked Xie Kun, "Teacher, what is this ship called?" How do I feel a bit like a fortune boat! ”

Xie Kun glanced at it and said, "This is called a grass skimming boat, now known as a sentry boat!" In fact, it is the shrinkage of the fortune boat! ”

Xu He had taken a ship to prepare a boat, but it was only today that he learned that the name of this kind of ship was called a sentry boat!

Hearing this, he said curiously: "I didn't expect that Senior Brother is not very old, and he still has research on warships. ”

Qi Jiguang is indeed very good, but Xu He always feels that Qi Jiguang in history has also learned and grown up step by step in his career as a horseman, but he didn't expect that in this time and space, he has already begun to study weapons and warships.

Xie Kun said with a smile: "This is a warship, Yuan Jing doesn't know much about a northerner. If you talk about swords, guns, swords, halberds, or even the deployment of troops, Yuan Jing's knowledge, even if I am a teacher, I dare not say that I know more than him! ”

Qi Jiguang touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "The teacher praised it falsely, how many generations of our martial artists have eaten this bowl of rice, and we will always know a little more!" ”

Next, Xu He knew how much [a little more] was!

"In our Great Wei army, the bows used can probably be divided into white birch bows, hemp back bows, yellow birch bows, black lacquer bows, Kaiyuan bows, small bow bows, and Xifan wood bows."

"The bower, the head of the weapon, so the martial arts, the first bow and arrow, if you talk about arrows, it is more, steel arrows, iron bone sharp cone arrows, rockets, armor-piercing cone arrows, wolf tongue arrows, crescent arrows, rabbit arrows, ......"

Xu He said curiously: "Isn't the arrow the kind with feathers on the back and arrows on the front?" What difference could this make? ”

Qi Jiguang saw that Xu He really didn't understand anything at all, so he patiently explained: "The kind of arrow that Liangsheng said should be a steel arrow, indeed, this kind of arrow is more common, but there are many kinds of arrows in the army, including foot combat, water fighting, horse shooting, shooting people, and shooting ship cables, and so on." ”

Xie Kun said on the side: "When Yuan Jing was in his hometown, he also made two new kinds of arrows, which were very powerful, and after writing to inform me, I had made them in Zhejiang, and the effect of killing thieves was amazing!" ”

It turned out that Qi Jiguang invented two kinds of arrows, one is called the crescent arrow, according to his description, this kind of arrow is similar to the ordinary point steel arrow, but the arrow is a sharp crescent type, this kind of arrow is specially aimed at the warship Pengsuo.

You must know that although the warships of this era are also rowed by manpower, the wind is actually the main driving force.

Once this kind of arrow shoots off Poonso and falls on the sails, the enemy ship instantly loses power on the battlefield and can only be captured.

"There is also a kind of arrow called rabbit arrow, this kind of arrow, as the name suggests, is behind the sharp arrow, there is a [爻] character mechanism, shot into the human body, want to pull out, the word [爻] is stuck in the flesh and bones, and the wound must be enlarged when taken out."

Xu He was suddenly surprised when he heard this: "Isn't this a canine barb arrow?" ”

Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "The name that the senior brother gave to this arrow is also appropriate!" In the future, it will be called a canine barb arrow! ”

The so-called canine barb arrow comes from a movie "New Dragon Gate Inn" that Xu He watched in his last life.

At the beginning of the movie, Dongchang uses prisoners to test arrows, and one of the new arrows called canine barb arrows has to expand the wound once it is shot into the human body.

In this era, there are no antibiotics, once there is an injury on the battlefield, it is still such a big wound, even if the arrow is pulled out, the person is basically wasted, whether he can live depends on the will of God, survive the fever and high fever, there is still a glimmer of life, and he can't survive it......

Sure enough, the movie comes from life, and the director is still attentive!

"What about firearms?" Compared with these traditional weapons, Xu He cares more about firearms.

"If you want to ask Yuan Jing firearms, that's really the right person! Yuan Jing's father, the former official Jiangnan Caoyun, the governor of Shandong, the commander of Daning, and the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion! Seven years ago, Yuan Jing also followed his father to take it for a period of time in the Shenji Camp of Daning Dusi, and he knew most about firearms! ”

Qi Jiguang was modest again, Xu He found that he really respected Xie Kun very much, unlike himself, he was familiar with Xie Kun and Li Zhijie, and other division commanders, except for formal occasions, it was very casual to speak in private.

But Qi Jiguang is different, he may be hindered by his identity as a martial artist, so when facing Xie Kun, he is always cautious and afraid of making mistakes.

This is not to say that it is bad, it can only be said that everyone has their own way of doing things, and no one can use their own standards to demand others.

After being humble, Qi Jiguang said: "Now the army is generally equipped with Lumi bird guns, this kind of bird guns are topped by Tuosang wood, followed by river willows, and the south is mostly made of alder wood, and the bobbin is restricted by the length of the bottom support, and there are two or three iron buttons under it, which are locked and do not vibrate when put down!" ”

"There is a screw-like bottom at the back door of the bird, which is connected by an iron chain, and other front mouths, fire doors, and engines are available."

"This kind of bird gun is also imitated from the seized wolf gun in recent years!"

Xu He understood when he heard this.

The so-called Lumi bird gun should be the so-called [iron cannon] in Japan.

Speaking of this [Iron Cannon], we have to mention the famous historical event in Japanese history - "Iron Cannon Transmission".

In another time and space, Japan's iron cannons were introduced to Japan in the 12th year of astronomy, and three Portuguese drifted to Tanegashima Island in Japan due to a typhoon.

He also carried a Western-style musket of the time.

Tokiyao, the fourteenth generation of Tanegashima at the time, and his father, Megumi Tanejima, recognized its power and purchased it with a large amount of money and gave it to the local blacksmith Yabankanebei to imitate, and finally copied the first Japanese iron cannon the following year.

That is, the round shape of the satsuma gun.

The effective range of this iron cannon can reach about 200 meters, but in terms of hit rate, it is only 40 meters.

However, with such an aiming rate and lethality, it also surpassed the traditional firearms, and it could be said that it was the best firearm in Asia at that time.

On the Huaxia side, firearms have been studied since the Song Dynasty.

According to the record of "History of the Song Dynasty", it is said that the Song Dynasty developed a firearm called the fire gun, which uses a giant bamboo as a barrel and a nest inside, and there is a flame eruption after ignition, and the sound is heard more than 150 steps away.

In the Yuan Dynasty, firearms began to develop, and they were no longer the kind of decorations that could only be scary and had no actual combat effect.

However, compared with the West of the same era, the West was obviously more successful in improving and developing firearms than in China.

"Senior brother, apart from this Lumi Bird Gun, what firearms do we have? Is there a cannon? Xu He asked.

"Cannon?" Qi Jiguang thought for a while, "There are stone cannons!" ”

"No, it's the kind of cannon that can fire gunpowder on the car!" Xu He shook his head and said.

"Yes, you're talking about the Seven Stars, right? That thing is useless, in fact, the principle is to tie the bird gun to the car and ignite it, which looks scary, but in fact kills! Qi Jiguang explained.

When Xu He heard this, he finally knew that the Franc machine gun had not yet been introduced to the Great Wei.
