Chapter 90: This weapon doesn’t look like a wolf, so why is it called a wolf?It should be called Lin Zhen! Just as Lin Che said.
The navy of the Ming Dynasty sank the Japanese warships and captured gold and silver as spoils.
It's not a lot, but it happens every time.
Precisely because the number was small, the generals of the Ming Navy did not take this seriously and almost ignored it.
"Tian De, come on, come on, sit down quickly."
Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed Xu Da, pressed him into his position, and asked in a serious tone: "How should we fight a war that is not short of money?"
Xu Da: "???"
He smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer the question. Instead, he wanted to care about the superior's mental condition.
Did the superior take the wrong medicine?He ran to the imperial prison every day.
"Father..."
Zhu Biao stood in front of the two of them and said with a wry smile:
"Sit down and have a rest first, and let me explain to Uncle Xu."
Hear this.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly woke up from a dream and slapped his forehead: "Look at our brains!"
"When I get excited, I forget the real business!"
"Boss, come here and give Uncle Xu a good talk!"
"The good days of Ming Dynasty are coming soon!"
Zhu Biao took his time, saluted one after another, and repeated the process in an orderly manner...
Lin Che's inference and analysis were completely repeated.
After hearing what the prince said, Xu Da's eyes suddenly widened and he jumped up from his chair, no longer calm.
"Your Highness...is this...serious?"
Zhu Biao smiled:
"Exactly!"
"Mr. Lin's matter is very special. He deliberately hid it from Uncle Xu for so long. I hope you won't blame me..."
Looking at the smiling prince, and then at Lao Zhu who couldn't help laughing, Xu Da couldn't help but take a breath, he was so shocked that he couldn't help but gasp.
Even the prince respectfully addressed the master Zhao Yu as 'Sir! '
Enough to see its weight!
When she thought about her daughter's evaluation of Mr. Lin, the weight of Mr. Lin in her heart also greatly increased.
Inexhaustible gold and silver...maybe it is actually possible!
"His Majesty!"
Xu Da knew the importance of this matter and did not dare to neglect it immediately:
"I am willing to lead troops there to find out the truth!"
With his unwavering look on his face, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled happily:
"No need!"
"Going to sea is a hard job, don't dare tire our general!"
"Don't worry, we have someone available!"
"I asked you to come here just to listen to the lecture and help us do the calculations!"
Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and told the prince: "Go, bring a chair in. I don't have any eyesight at all, so I'll just let your Uncle Xu stand!"
Zhu Biao agreed and hurriedly prepared to go.
When Xu Da saw this, he was a little flattered and wondered: "Higher position..."
"Why don't we just forget about it?"
"We are a rough guy, why should we listen to this class?"
"What's more, I still have a lot of things waiting for me in the military camp!"
"Look, I won't go back after I leave... That's not the case. It's easy to make people gossip!"
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand nonchalantly:
"If you are told to listen, just listen. Where does this nonsense come from?"
"Can we still harm you?"
"I'm not bragging to you. Others who want to hear it don't have the chance!"
"I am happy today and I will reward you!"
"sit!"
Xu Da: "..."...
the other side.
Zhu Xi found paper and pen on the bed and handed them to Lin Che.
Then he drank three glasses of wine with Lin Che, then filled Lin Che's empty wine cup with wine and listened to him continue.
"This kind of weapon is called the Langzhen. It can be used with the sword and shield hand to fight against Japanese pirates."
"When our Ming Dynasty gets rich in the future, and the bamboo is replaced by an iron rod, it will crush the Japanese pirates even more!"
When Lin Che said this, she randomly drew a drawing of Langzhen on the paper.
It's so simple that it can even be considered a primitive weapon.
It fell in Zhu Shuang's eyes, but he held it in his hands like a treasure and praised: "Sir is really a scholar. He has never seen Japanese pirates, but he can even design weapons to restrain Japanese pirates."
"This weapon doesn't look like a wolf, so why call it a wolf?"
"I think it should be called Lin Zhen."
When Zhu Xi said this, he looked at Lin Che in a serious tone.
"I want Lin Zhen's name to be engraved in the hearts of all Japanese pirates so that they will never forget it forever!"
Lin Che laughed when she heard this, but did not refuse.
In his opinion, it's just a name for a weapon.
You can’t take away Qi Shaobao’s luck, right?
However, if the Japanese country falls into the territory ruled by the Ming Dynasty.
If Qi Shaobao wants to achieve historical achievements in the future.
I am afraid that I will have to attack the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty from the north to the Ural Mountains, or I will sail out to sea to fight the Dutch fleet.
Put aside the thoughts that are running around in your head.
Lin Che smiled lightly and said:
"This thing is nothing. As long as there are soldiers who fight against Japanese pirates and win, there will always be someone who can think of similar weapons to restrain Japanese pirates."
"But Langzhen is still too primitive. I want to kill Japanese pirates or other barbarians more effectively."
"The only way is to develop technology and develop weapons that are more powerful, more efficient, and easier to use!"
When Lin Che said this, she casually drew a picture of a firecracker and pushed it in front of Zhu Ming.
Zhu Xi stood up and took a look at the lifelike fire gun.
He had seen fire blunderbuss in the Ming army camp before and was no stranger to it.
However, Lin Che said that the fire cannons drawn were obviously different from the fire cannons installed in the Ming Dynasty.
But he couldn't tell what the specific differences were.
"Sir, the more powerful weapon you mentioned is this firecracker you drew?"
Zhu Xi was overjoyed when he took the drawings:
"Sir, when I go out, I will ask my father to present this drawing to the emperor, and let the craftsmen of the Ordnance Institute do it. In the future, I will use the weapons developed by my husband to teach the Japanese pirates a lesson!"
"The weapons on this drawing may be difficult to make now."
Lin Che poured cold water on the excited Zhu Xi.
Without waiting for Zhu Xi to ask, Lin Che gave the correct path.
"The current plan is to be down-to-earth and make our own firecrackers better."
Before the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's army already used fire blunderbuss to cooperate with archers.
Zhu Ping also played with fire guns in the military camp.
Seeing Lin Che say this, Zhu Xi felt a little disappointed: "Sir, the power of the big open fire gun is not bad, but the problem is that the filling is too slow and the smoke is huge every time it is fired."
"The most important thing is that its accuracy is not as good as that of a crossbow. When it's windy or rainy, it's even worse than a fire stick."
The muskets of the early Ming Dynasty were still relatively primitive.
"The barrel seal was poor, resulting in the fired projectile not being powerful enough."
The gunpowder people haven't figured out the best formula yet, so they're adding all sorts of messy things.
So much so that when it was launched once, the smoke and dust were huge.
After a few rounds of firing, it can even cover the battlefield.
If it weren't for the Ming army's confrontation with Bei Yuan, the cavalry on the opposite side would have been unable to fight.
Otherwise, they would encounter the martial cavalry of the early Yuan Dynasty, using the cover of gunpowder smoke to attack the Ming army's position with volleys of guns.
The first generation of fire guns may be withdrawn from the armament of the Ming army.
