Chapter 170: Another Spoiler for Han Cheng (3-in-1)
Looking at his father, who was full of smiles in an instant, Zhu Biao felt a little blind on the side.
His father's face is really flexible enough!!
Zhu Yuanzhang felt his son's gaze, and he didn't care about it, as long as he could get things done, the rest was not very important to him.
Of course, this is also a division of people and things.
If the person who talked to him like this was not Han Cheng, but the rest of the people, Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that he would not have such a good temper.
Han Cheng didn't feel embarrassed all the time, and deliberately didn't say it.
It was originally a little joke, but it still needs to be paid attention to.
After arguing with Lao Zhu for a few words, Han Cheng said: "I have thought of a way to improve the performance of firearms here.
By employing a number of means, firearms can be made more powerful and can be fired faster. ”
Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed at first, but he didn't expect that the important thing Han Cheng said would actually increase the power of firearms.
I thought that the power of gunpowder had been greatly improved, which was already extremely rare, beyond Zhu Yuanzhang's imagination.
He felt that in a short period of time, it was impossible to make a greater improvement in the power of firearms.
As a result, who could have imagined that Han Cheng was now telling him that there was still a way to greatly improve the performance of firearms!
That's great!
The greater the power of firearms, the more beneficial it is for Da Ming!
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to firearms.
Later, after learning from Han Cheng that there were atomic bombs and other things in later generations, he became even more enthusiastic about firearms.
Relying only on swords and soldiers, manpower is exhausted after all, and only firearms are king!
After being happy, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became a little worried.
"That...... Han Cheng, do you think of a big solution?
Will it be the same as the method you proposed before, which requires expensive things such as eggs and sugar? ”
Looking at Emperor Hongwu, who seemed a little worried when he asked these words in front of him, the corners of Han Cheng's mouth twitched slightly.
This Hongwu Emperor is really a good hand at living.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe that such a famous Hongwu Emperor would be such a door-picker.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much, the method I said won't cost too much."
"Whew!"
Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang let out a sigh of relief, and then urged Han Chengdao: "Tell me quickly." ”
Han Cheng couldn't help but twitch again when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction.
It's really worthy of Lao Zhu!
"The method is to determine the optimal amount of gunpowder to be filled with the gunpowder, and then wrap the corresponding amount of gunpowder with paper.
Wrapped in a cylindrical shape.
This makes it easier to reload the barrel.
When fighting, after a shot is fired, you can quickly get another powder cartridge that has been wrapped and fill it directly into the barrel.
Isn't it possible to greatly save the time of reloading gunpowder and improve the efficiency of shooting? ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up in an instant!
There is a feeling of being sudden!
Zhu Yuanzhang is no stranger to firearms, and he has used them himself.
It's powerful, but it's too cumbersome to use.
First of all, there is the problem of gunpowder reloading.
After a shot, it is necessary to reload the gunpowder.
Gunpowder is a test.
Some people reload quickly, others slowly, but even if you reload gunpowder quickly, it will take a lot of time to complete.
Taking a lot of time is only one thing, but more importantly, it is not easy to grasp the amount of gunpowder to be charged.
Too much gunpowder is loaded, which can easily lead to explosions.
However, if you have too little gunpowder, it will not be powerful enough to have the desired effect.
This is especially a taste experience.
It's not like no one has ever found out about this kind of distress.
But there is no good way to solve it.
The only way is to let people practice more, and the more they practice, the more proficient they will be.
But now, as soon as Han Cheng said these fluttering words, Zhu Yuanzhang only felt that the layer of window paper was pierced all of a sudden.
Oh, yes!
Wouldn't it be okay to wrap the gunpowder you need with paper first?
Don't worry about whether the amount of gunpowder is too much or too little!
Moreover, the reloading speed can also be greatly improved.
Good!
That's great!
Why didn't anyone think of such a good way?
It's just a matter of using some paper, and all at once there are so many benefits!
This trick is really wonderful!!
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but applaud.
Although Zhu Biao doesn't like to dance knives and guns, he is a person who came from troubled times after all.
Although his understanding of firearms is not as good as that of Zhu Yuanzhang, he is not ignorant.
At this time, he also figured out what Han Cheng said, and the important role he could play was also excited.
It was as if there was a light in the eyes.
It's a simple and practical solution!
The two thought that this was all the ways that Han Cheng said to improve the performance of firearms, but Han Cheng's voice rang out again, telling them that what he said was more than that.
"In addition to gunpowder, you can also wrap these projectiles in paper to achieve one-step ......"
What Han Cheng said was actually a paper bullet.
Metal bullets were developed on the basis of paper shell bullets.
These are not secrets to future generations.
With just a little knowledge of the development of firearms, you will know about paper shell bullets.
However, this kind of measure, which seemed to be ordinary in the eyes of later generations, was of epoch-making significance in this era.
It will cause a great shock to the people of this era.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and figured out what Han Cheng meant by what he said, and suddenly became pleasantly surprised!
That's right!
Since gunpowder can be wrapped in paper for quantification, why can't these projectiles be wrapped together and fed into the barrel?
In this way, it will be more convenient and faster to use!
Han Cheng's bastard boy's head is good!
This matter seems very simple, but before Han Cheng said it, why didn't anyone think about it?
"Good! Good! Han Cheng, you have a good idea! Zhu Yuanzhang praised repeatedly.
Then he looked at Han Chengdao and said, "That...... In addition to these, Han Cheng, do you have any other suggestions? ”
"In addition to these, that is, the paper used to wrap the gunpowder, also needs some processing, ordinary paper is not made, it needs to be soaked in grease.
In this way, it can have a better waterproof and moisture-proof effect.
When it is used, because there is a paper wrap on the outside, the gunpowder is not easy to ignite, and a person needs to bite a small hole underneath to let some gunpowder flow out.
In this case, it is much easier to ignite again. ”
Han Cheng then added.
Is there really one?
After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more pleasantly surprised.
Originally, he thought that Han Cheng's two proposals were good enough, but he just subconsciously asked just now.
I didn't think I could really get anything good.
As a result, now, Han Cheng is really good!
Wrap the gunpowder in oiled paper, and when using it, bite some under the paper tube first, so that the gunpowder can flow out a little and facilitate ignition.
Although it sounds simple and easy to think of, if Han Cheng doesn't say it, then there will be some detours before they start using oiled paper here.
A lot of things that seem simple are not as simple as they imagined when they are actually done.
Zhu Biao held a pen in his hand, and he worked hard to write here, wanting to record everything Han Cheng said.
In his opinion, these are the best things!
It is of extraordinary significance to Daming!
Han Cheng stood here, waiting for Zhu Biao to write.
After seeing Zhu Biao finish writing, he spoke again: "In addition to the existing firearms and artillery, I think Daming can add some new firearms."
In later generations, there was a firearm that was called a grenade. ”
With Han Cheng's opening, this time it was not only Zhu Yuanzhang who was surprised, but even Zhu Biao.
Han Cheng knows so much!
Whether it's the improved gunpowder before, or the gunpowder wrapped in paper, these are the best ideas.
There was no need for too many experiments at all, they only had to think about it to know that through Han Cheng's methods, they would definitely be able to greatly increase the power of firearms.
It greatly improves the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
Think about it, after a round of shooting, the enemy on the opposite side feels that it will take some time for the soldiers on his side to finish loading and start a new round of shooting.
So, he took this opportunity to charge hard at the soldiers on his side.
As a result, the soldiers on their side took out the gunpowder wrapped in paper and completed a new round of loading in an instant.
Without waiting for these enemies to rush in front of them, they gave them a new round of close-to-face shots at a closer distance.
Thinking of the many enemies falling to the ground in pieces, and when he was dying, he was extremely stunned and full of dazed looks, Zhu Biao felt extremely happy in his heart.
What they got from Han Cheng had already exceeded their psychological expectations.
As a result, now, Han Cheng has actually given something new!
How does this not surprise them?
Zhu Biao looked at Han Cheng with blazing eyes, ready to write hard.
"What is a grenade?"
Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked questions.
"A grenade is a throwing firearm, usually in the shape of a goose egg, or in the shape of a cylindrical one.
Hollow, filled with gunpowder, unplug the safety when used, and throw it at the enemy, causing an explosion.
Use the fragments generated by the explosion to kill and damage enemies. ”
"This ...... Isn't it just a cannon fight? What grenades do you have to say, I almost didn't understand what you were talking about! ”
After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang sounded with some sudden voices.
"Uh...... If you want to say that, you can actually do it.
It is true that a grenade can be understood as a large artillery battle.
However, its artillery battle is different from ordinary artillery battles.
First, it contained far more gunpowder than ordinary artillery battles.
On the other hand, the materials are different.
The shell of the grenade needs to be made of pig iron.
In this way, after the explosion, a large number of fragments can be generated.
These irregular fragments contain great power......
There are also many types of grenades.
For example, there are grenades, which are mainly anti-personnel.
This kind of grenade is roughly divided into two types.
One is an offensive grenade.
Mainly used during onslaught.
These grenades have a limited range of damage, and when thrown, they can be charged at enemies without damaging themselves.
The other is a grenade with a large killing range.
If you want to use this grenade, you need to throw it as far as possible......
In addition, the grenade also emits smoke and is used to obscure the enemy's vision.
There is a ...... for brief lighting"
Han Cheng told Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao about the grenade here.
After listening to Han Cheng's story, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still there just now, said that the grenade was a cannon fight, and never said that again.
Can this grenade still be used like this?
It's simply played out by later generations!
Through Han Cheng's narration, Zhu Yuanzhang already knew a lot of magic uses of grenades.
This grenade is really a good weapon!
Once lit, throw it and blow it up!
It's very easy to use.
It's a kind of big killer on the battlefield!
It can make up for the lack of muskets very well.
At that moment, Zhu Yuanzhang decided that this grenade must be made!
Once it is made, it will inevitably become a sharp weapon in the hands of Daming!
I fought with Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang, and Yuan Tartar, if I had such a sharp weapon in hand, then at least I could have ended the war a year ahead of schedule!!
"This ...... If you use iron as a shell, you may not be able to blow it up! ”
Zhu Biao wrote hard, and after recording what Han Cheng said, he looked at Han Cheng and raised his own questions.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also woke up all of a sudden.
He had always been excited about the power of the grenade, a new type of firearm, and in a short period of time, he had come up with several clever uses for grenades.
That's why I didn't think much about anything else.
At this time, when I heard Zhu Biao ask like this, I immediately felt that what Zhu Biao said was a very fatal question.
Iron isn't that easy to fry.
Even if it can barely explode, it often doesn't have much lethality.
Han Chengdao: "This can allow craftsmen to do more research and find suitable materials."
In addition, when casting, you can make criss-crossing grooves on it.
These are thin places, and when they explode, they can easily crack from here......"
Zhu Biao hurriedly recorded these, and in his opinion, these words that Han Cheng said were golden and jade good words.
"That'...... Han Cheng, do you know how to make grenades? ”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Han Cheng and asked.
Han Cheng shook his head and said: "This really doesn't know, I only know some principles, the types and uses of some grenades, and I don't know the rest." ”
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
"Your Majesty, I think you can set up a special institution to study firearms in the future.
The aspects involved include but are not limited to the increase in the power of gunpowder, and what kind of use gunpowder has in different proportions.
Research and development of a variety of firearms, so that firearms continue to improve, more and more types, more and more powerful.
Firearms are the way to go, and the use of gunpowder and firearms can only be said to have just begun, just a little scratch of the surface.
There is still too much room for research and development.
I can assert that as long as Daming can maintain a leading position in firearms research and development.
And build a strong army, especially a strong sailor.
Then the whole world must crawl down and listen to the voice from the Ming Dynasty.
Truly do it, where the sun and the moon shine, and where the rivers go, they are all Han soil!
The truth is always within the range of the cannon!! ”
Where the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go, they are all Han soil!
Truth is always within the range of a cannon?!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao repeated what Han Cheng said in their hearts, and they only felt excited!
I can't wait to set up a cannon to bombard it!
"Good!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his leg fiercely, stood up, put his hands behind his back, and stood tall!
"What a place where the sun and the moon shine, and where the rivers go, they are all Han land!
A good truth is always within the range of a cannon!!
Let's Zhu Yuanzhang, since we have become the emperor from a starving to death called Huazi, let's do more things!
Let our Daming become stronger!
More than Han Tang! Let the whole world have only one voice, and this voice is my Daming!! ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's voice became impassioned.
The domineering spirit of the founding emperor and his heroic mind are undoubtedly revealed.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be shining all over the place!
Zhu Biao looked at his high-spirited father, and then thought about the scene depicted by Han Cheng, and couldn't help but feel agitated.
and clenched his fists hard,
This kind of thing, how can he be without Zhu Biao?
Zhu Biao is very sure that as long as he can really do what Han Cheng said, then his father and son will definitely go down in history!
Especially his father, the emperor, will surpass the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and surpass the Tang Sect!
This is what many capable emperors want to pursue but can't get.
Therefore, you must live well and live as long as possible.
Do more things, look at Da Ming more!
Let's see how far Daming can go!
In the process of Daming becoming powerful, he also left his own traces.
In this way, even if he really dies young, there is no such regret.
Because I've worked hard!
The atmosphere in the side hall suddenly became impassioned.
Han Cheng looked at the reactions of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, and while he was also excited, he couldn't help but smile in his heart.
Ever since he learned that he had come to Daming and accepted this matter, Han Chengcheng always wanted to do something.
Let Daming, an already powerful country, set sail ahead of schedule and seize the opportunity.
Become Greater!
To this end, he guided step by step, stimulated the ambition of Zhu Yuanzhang and others step by step, and guided their eyes overseas as much as possible.
Now it seems that it has been a success.
Next, it is a step-by-step layout and development.
Let's see how far Daming can go after having one more self!
None of the three spoke again.
After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang's mood calmed down a lot and sat down again.
Looking at Han Chengdao: "I have always had a firearms bureau, not only under the six departments, but also the staff bureau in the inner court, and also a department for manufacturing firearms."
Next, I will give you your ideas about firearms to the staff of the Scepter Bureau, and let them study them and get them out quickly. ”
Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to say that he would let the Scepter Bureau and the department in charge of firearms in the six departments do this together.
However, after thinking about it, I finally felt that it was more comfortable to hand it over to the people of the Staff Bureau.
After all, this is the inner court yamen, which is closer to him, better controlled, and easier to do secrecy work.
As for the Firearms Bureau under the Six Ministries, although it is also a serious organization, it has been responsible for building the firearms needed in the army until now, and he has abolished the Prime Minister and the Zhongshu Province, and directly placed the Six Ministries under him.
But after Li Shanchang, Wang Guangyang, Hu Weiyong and others, Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little uneasy when he encountered such an extremely important matter.
"Your Majesty, only these current personnel are still not enough, Your Majesty might as well recruit some corresponding people to do this.
Firearms, together with their breadth and profundity, have far-reaching influence and can be greatly developed.
We have to pay attention to it. ”
Hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded seriously, saying that what Han Cheng said was very reasonable, and he would do it.
But then I thought about it, and I was a little worried.
If it's just a craftsman who needs to make firearms, then it's easy to say, people are easy to find.
But what Han Cheng said was that people who have the ability to study new firearms are needed, and such people are really not easy to get for a while.
After learning of Zhu Yuanzhang's embarrassment, Han Cheng thought for a while and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is, in the future, Your Majesty can find more unscrupulous people who pretend to be gods, deceive the people, and refine pills."
All these people were arrested, and after the culpability was ascertained, their crimes were convicted.
Then let these people join the ranks of studying firearms.
If you do a good job, you can exonerate them from their guilt and even give them a reward.
Inspire their passion.
The study of firearms, especially gunpowder, is an extremely dangerous business.
If you don't get one right, it will explode.
However, if you study gunpowder with such a person, even if it really explodes and there are casualties, it will not be distressing.
It is also considered to be deserved.
Moreover, these people themselves are alchemists, and this gunpowder is these people at the beginning, and when they are fine, they like to throw something into the furnace to burn and drum it out.
This is also a professional counterpart. ”
After hearing Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
Stretched out his hand and pointed at Han Cheng and smiled: "You kid, you really have yours!" You can think of such a solution! Okay, just do as you say.
Let them also make some contributions to our Ming Dynasty, lest they swagger and deceive and harm the people! ”
After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended to the throne, he specially summoned the heavenly master who had seen Longhu Mountain.
While affirming Zhengyi, it also used some means to restrict the development and growth of Taoism, and uncontrollably competed with the government for population and land.
For example, limit the number of legal Taoist priests.
In addition, an even more ruthless move is the implementation of the yellow book system.
Directly began to clear the acres of land, established a strict household registration system, and cleared out a large number of hidden land and population.
On the Jiangxi side, Zhengyi, which has great power, is naturally not much better, and many hidden properties have been discovered.
In such a situation, there are naturally more monks who wander among the people.
When there are many people, there will be a lot of chaos.
There are some who are indeed good, who do good deeds and treat the people.
But there is rat poop in every industry.
There are also many people who are deceived and deceived.
There are many people locked up in prisons around the country.
Some were chopped, some remained.
The identities of these people are somewhat special, whether they will continue to kill like this, Zhu Yuanzhang is a little hesitant.
At this time, after listening to Han Cheng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly found a particularly suitable way to deal with it.
That's why he's so happy at this time.
Zhu Biao also laughed and said: "This is called making the best use of talents!" Han Cheng, this arrangement of yours is indeed very wonderful! It's just amazing!
This is probably the way you can think of it! ”
Next, Han Cheng, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Biao talked about some firearms, as well as some considerations and ideas about the Firearms Bureau.
Han Ben himself had already thought about these things.
Originally, I wanted to wait until tomorrow, when Zhu Biao asked him to learn the Eight Vajra Gong, and said that he would listen to Zhu Biao.
It just so happened that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao came over today, and they rushed here in a hurry, and Han Chengcheng decided to say all this.
With Zhu Yuanzhang present, this matter will be easier to do in the future.
For what Han Cheng said, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang naturally remembered it firmly.
Both of them felt that tonight, it was really a loss.
Not only did he eat a meal carefully prepared by Han Cheng, but he also gained so many additional things.
There are a lot of them, if it weren't for Han Cheng, a person from later generations, to say it, then with their knowledge and thinking, it would be impossible to do it.
That's not to say that Han Cheng is smarter than them.
To be honest, when it comes to smart Han Cheng and characters like them, the difference is too far and too far.
Han Cheng mainly lived hundreds of years later, and was in the era of information explosion, with a lot of knowledge from later generations and a lot of understanding of the future of the Ming Dynasty.
Many things that later generations are accustomed to come to this era often have thought-provoking and even epoch-making significance.
After some talking, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao stood up, and with a full harvest, they were ready to leave from Han Cheng with satisfaction.
The business had already been discussed, and Han Cheng naturally wanted the two of them to leave quickly.
It's not too late now, and after the two leave, he can see if he can renew with his future little daughter-in-law.
Therefore, for the departure of the two of them, it is impossible to ask for it.
As a result, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stopped.
After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Han Cheng and said, "Han Cheng, can you tell me in detail how the fourth guy treated the vassal king after he took the throne?" ”
When talking about this, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was somewhat not good.
Han Cheng didn't need to ask to know that this must be because Emperor Hongwu listened to his spoilers and learned what Zhu Di did later, so he had some different feelings about Zhu Di.
In other words, he had doubts about his originally confident vassal system.
Some of them want to attack the vassal system.
I couldn't find any good solution for a while, so I wanted to see how Emperor Yongle solved it, so as to find some experience from it.
Han Yuan wanted to send off the guests, but when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was different from before, although it was not too obvious, he could hear the tiredness and exhaustion in Zhu Yuanzhang's voice.
He is also much more polite when he treats himself.
Han Cheng was also a little soft and not hard, and when he saw this situation, he swallowed the words that were ready to send off the guests to his mouth.
"Of course you can."
As Han Cheng spoke, he invited the two of them to sit back, and he sat back on the chair.
It's also a bit time-consuming.
After sorting out the thoughts, a new round of spoilers begins.
After Zhu Di ascended the throne, he informed Zhu Yuanzhang of the internal seal of the vassal king, the revocation of the three guards, the improvement of the treatment of the clan, and the opening of the pig breeding mode.
Some Han Cheng had already talked to Zhu Yuanzhang about these things before, but he didn't say them in detail.
Some have not yet said it to Zhu Yuanzhang, such as starting the clan to raise pigs.
This time, Han Chengdu told Zhu Yuanzhang in detail.
After Zhu Yuanzhang listened, he didn't speak for a long time.
After a while, he sighed and nodded again.
What he thinks about the most now is how to solve the problem of the clan.
Knowing that the clan system he was proud of had caused civil strife, he decided not to leave this sinkhole to his descendants.
But there has been no good solution.
"Your Majesty is ready to use these methods of Emperor Yongle to solve the problem of the vassal king?"
Facing Han Cheng's inquiry, Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously wanted to shake his head, and remembered that he didn't seem to have any secrets to hide in front of Han Cheng.
This guy came from hundreds of years later, and he seems to know himself very well.
Under such circumstances, when he faced Han Cheng, he really had nothing too much to hide.
He nodded immediately.
In fact, this is also a big reason why Zhu Yuanzhang is here in Han Cheng, and he is not very restrained in his emotions.
He felt that Han Cheng knew what his true self was like.
In this case, if you hide your emotions again, you will inevitably be a little too self-deceiving, and if you don't say that you are uncomfortable, you will be seen clearly by Han Cheng.
"Your Majesty, you'd better not use this kind of method, this thing is also a big hole."
Han Cheng said with a wry smile.
This is also a big pit?
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Han Cheng's words and couldn't help but be stunned.
The fourth child's solution, although he felt that it was still a little inappropriate, but on the whole it was still feasible, and it was the best way in desperation.
Such a method turned out to be a sinkhole?
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unconvinced.
However, as Han Cheng told the story, he quickly believed it......
