Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty
Chapter 6
After another ten days, Song Yang returned from the south and brought the sweet potatoes described by Wang Pu. Wang Pu immediately ordered the terraced fields to be reclaimed on the hillside for trial planting, and it is expected that the harvest will be in May just in time for the green and yellow crops.
"I have ordered a two-hundred-material sea ship in the south, this is the drawing, in order to be able to load cannons in the future, I also asked them to strengthen the cabins on the left and right sides, and the holes can be loaded with twelve cannons, but the locals over there are treacherous, I invited two groups of crew members are very suspicious, there is a smell of blood, it is not like a good family, don't lure the wolf into the room, swallow our ship with its cargo. We can only send someone to drive the ship over, or we will be in trouble if we can't drive it after we build it in the future. Song Yang said and spread out the drawings.
"Those who go to sea to make a living, nine deaths, and there can be no good family. Wang Pu said disappreciatively.
"But I'm always not at ease, the people over there are a group of people from the same village, and they are not of the same mind as us. "
"It also makes sense, this kind of thing can only be found by reliable people, but the northerners can't swim, and if they go to sea, aren't they sent to death. "
"Well, what about that. Song Yang was dumbfounded.
"I can't swim, so I have to train, I'll find a few swimmers to form a water army, anyway, it will be useful in the future war." Wang Pu said with a smile.
"Lord Wang is already a general who guards one side, which is really enviable. Song Yang said with some taste, his tone pantothenic. He and Wang Pu worked together in Datong, and he didn't think Wang Pu had much ability at that time, but now he is still Bai Ding, and Wang Pu has a huge disparity in identity.
"We're old friends, so don't be polite. Wang Pu said with a smile, after all, he came back in time, so he talked about his peers and spoke in a relaxed tone, which made him feel like he was back in the modern era, so he was not disgusted.
Wang Pu deliberately kept Song Yang for two days and invited him to visit the first rifled flintlock pistol that had been highly anticipated. Lao Yang's improved blast furnace can produce 200 catties of iron per day, and he made 15 machine tools in one go, ten of which are used to drill through solid iron rods to make seamless steel pipes, which takes five days, and the other five are used for rifling, which takes seven days, which is completed today.
Holding this rifled flintlock pistol that took countless painstaking efforts to build, Wang Pu couldn't put it down, the luster of stainless steel, the heavy sense of reality, and the breath of science and technology, fantasizing about using it to defeat Jiannu in the future.
When the target was placed, Wang Pu personally charged, aimed the three tail protrusions of the conical lead bullet at the rifled groove of the muzzle, pushed the barrel with a through strip and compacted, and fired a test shot, but it missed.
Wang Pu was a little embarrassed, and tried to shoot another shot, but he still missed, his face was ugly, and he shot straight seven or eight times, all of which missed the target. Lao Yang watched coldly from the side, with an expression that you deserve it.
"Failed. Wang Pu's face was extremely ugly, there was no rifled flintlock pistol, what did he use to defeat Jiannu, although in the Yapian War, the British army had defeated the Qing army with a smoothbore flintlock pistol, but it was the end of the Qing Dynasty, how could the early Qing Dynasty and the end of the Qing Dynasty be the same.
"Could it be a crosshair? Wang Pu was still lucky, and he shot close to the target, this time hitting the left edge of the target. Wang Pu deliberately deflected the muzzle of the gun to the right a little to make up the shot, but this time it hit the top edge of the target. After repeated attempts, Wang Pu finally understood that the accuracy of the barrel was not enough.
Lao Yang put away his original contempt, went up with a solemn expression and looked at the target carefully, and said in disbelief: "This gun has some doorways, and it can actually have a head within thirty steps, which is more powerful than the fire gun of the wolf." "
"What does that do, thirty paces, the cavalry whips, and kills in front of the nose. Not to mention that Jiannu is good at riding and shooting, starting to shoot at a hundred paces, and shooting accurately at fifty steps, without the power to fight back. It would be nice if the accuracy could be increased, as long as the distance was increased to seventy steps, and the face of Jiannu would be sure not to suffer. Wang Pu said dejectedly.
"Precision, what is this. "Lao Yang didn't understand the term.
"The barrel is not straight enough, or there is a large gap between the inner wall of the barrel and the projectile, and if it is shot out, the projectile will float, and the accuracy will not be enough. "
"There is only one place in the world where you need this kind of craftsman, Jiangning Weaving Bureau. After all, Lao Yang is well-informed and pointed out a clear path for Wang Pu.
On the same day, Wang Pu couldn't wait to order Wang Lu to ride a fast horse to find his father Wang Wei, begging him to find a way to dig up craftsmen who were good at fine craftsmanship from the Jiangning Weaving Bureau.
Six days later, Wang Lu returned to his life, and he presented a thousand-year-old ginseng and a silk cotton to Wang Pu. Wang Pu looked at these two things that were not related to each other and was confused, and asked, "Father, what does he mean by this." "
"Back to the young master, the master said, Jiangning Weaving Bureau is the emperor's
workshop, digging the emperor's corner, the crime can be big or small, he did not know about this matter in advance, and then he had to ask the emperor for guilt, when the time comes, the young master must be beaten badly, the family law of the Wang family is a stick made of golden silk nanmu, one zhang long, a stick will open the flesh, because it involves the emperor, dare not fight to the death, if it is lucky, the emperor has a good mood, it is enough to faint once, but in case, the emperor encounters something unpleasant, the young master will faint twice, first knock out once, splash with water to wake up, and then knock out again, this thousand-year-old ginseng will be put in the mouth of the young master, hanging lifeThis quilt is newly made, very soft, and can be placed on it for a long time, waiting for recovery. "
"Ah, hiss~" When Wang Pu heard this, he gasped, felt his buttocks tingle, and couldn't help but reach out to scratch it. This is the legendary beating half to death. Wang Pu struggled for a day, but still made up his mind. Because it is the second year of Chongzhen at this time, Jiannu is huge, and he has the capital of the king, and he has just started, there is no time to prepare calmly, Wang Pu has no confidence in his military talent, his opponent is Huang Taiji, Dolgon and other historical celebrities, the history books understand that the Mandate of Heaven is on the side of the Qing Dynasty, how can he defeat the Houjin of the Mandate of Heaven with mediocre qualifications, he needs more advanced weapons, far beyond the weapons of this era.
After making up his mind, Wang Pu immediately asked everyone to discuss, and then Emperor Chongzhen will only be in a worse mood, and the longer the time drags on, the more his ass will suffer, so it is better to be sooner rather than later. Wang Pu is ready to take out his private money, seven gold ingots, if he directly sends the gold ingots to the steward of the Jiangning Weaving Bureau, the craftsman who wants to come will not be the best craftsman, and the other party will have reservations. Unless you can name a specific craftsman. The result of the discussion was that Wang Pu wrote ten unveiling posts, posted near the Jiangning Weaving Bureau, and specified that the unveiling posts would pay a lot of money to hire craftsmen who were good at fine processing, and send people to keep an eye on them. The steward of the Jiangning Weaving Bureau received the gold ingots, and only said that he would lend Luo Qingpu to Wang Pu, but did not say the time limit, Wang Lu was happy, this errand was done very beautifully, people got it, and there were still two of the seven gold ingots, and he left it to be a memory.
At the end of February, Wang Pu saw a familiar historical event in the Di newspaper, Mao Wenlong was killed, his intuition was dry, and he said in his heart that Jiannu was coming. The so-called country will die out of the demon, Yuan Chonghuan is the demon of the Ming Dynasty, this person is an official fan, in order to be a big official unscrupulous means, in front of the emperor in vain five years of Pingliao, Chongzhen is also an upright young man, actually took this word seriously, entrusted with a heavy responsibility, almost entrusted the Ming Dynasty's national fortune to this person, Yuan Chonghuan arrived in Liaodong and found that the Liaodong army at this time had lost its courage, without the courage to fight against Jiannu, how could this army be defeated Liao, and saw that Mao Wenlong's Dongjiang army often had gains, thinking that it was available, so he took it upon himself to trap Mao Wenlong, and wanted to seize the Dongjiang army, However, how can this villain know that the Dongjiang Army is an army united by Mao Wenlong's personal charm, and the Dongjiang Army will be abolished as soon as Mao Wenlong dies. Jiannu had no worries, and since then it has soared into the sky, and the Ming Dynasty is irretrievable.
Just when Wang Pu gritted his teeth at Yuan Chonghuan, a good news came, a craftsman named Luo Qingpu was dug from the Jiangning Weaving Bureau, Wang Lu also described Luo Qingpu's ability in the letter, and drew a circle with a pen. Wang Pu wanted to cry without tears, although it was good news, but the blessing and misfortune depended, just in time for Mao Wenlong to be killed, Emperor Chongzhen had nowhere to vent his anger, and he hit the muzzle of the gun this time, and it was difficult to escape.
"Lao Yang, I, I
want to go to Taiyuan, maybe stay for a month or two, during this time, Luo Qingpu, a craftsman invited from Nanjing, will come to Yanmen, you help me arrange it, and strive to let him complete the commissioning of the machine tool as soon as possible, and make a new fire gun and send it to Taiyuan to show me, so that I can feel at ease." "The Wang family has a mansion in Taiyuan, and there are better doctors in the big city, and the medicine is also complete, which is easier to heal.
"Yes, don't worry, the owner is from the small people's province. In addition, five sets of improved iron armor have been made, whether the owner has seen it. Lao Yang was completely impressed by Wang Pu's ability, this weak-crowned boy has an amazing talent for improving weapons, and he made the armor of the iron armor bigger and put it together into armor like a shrimp shell, so that the craftsmen were like being struck by lightning after hearing it, and everyone did not think of such a simple improvement method after making armor for a lifetime.
"Oh, Ironclad ...... Yes, has it been changed, I won't look at it, this thing is not important. Wang Pu was stunned for a while before remembering that after the failure of the rifled flintlock pistol, he was sick and rushed to the hospital, and wanted to build a heavy infantry, which was the idea of the Song Dynasty, the heavy infantry had two benefits, one of which was that the heavy armor was draped on the body to virtually improve the courage of the soldiers, and a well-trained heavy infantry would not easily flee in the face of overwhelming enemy cavalry, in fact, it could not escape. Second, the heavy infantry has better battlefield adaptability, plains and mountains and hills, city defense and field battles are very suitable, which can be called the battlefield panacea. Heavy armor has the best defensive effect is undoubtedly European-style plate armor, but plate armor is very expensive, and you may not be able to make much if you go bankrupt, and think of Roman-style armor, it will be cheaper and practical to replace a whole large iron plate with a few small iron plates that are easier to manufacture, and this new type of armor will be quite powerful on the battlefield.
However, now that the world has changed, with the treasure of Luo Qingpu, he can create a firearm with an effective range of more than 70 steps, which is the weapon of choice in the future.
Going to Taiyuan is naturally indispensable to visit his grandfather Qin Kun'an, and
I don't know why Wang Pu has many memories in his mind that do not belong to him, which should be the remnants of the real Wang Pu's fall, including Qin Kun'an, it can be seen that this person is close to Wang Pu, usually Wang Pu will instinctively stay away from this kind of person, so as not to be seen as strange and find out that he is an impostor. However, proper etiquette cannot be avoided, otherwise it will be even more suspicious.
In order to leave a good impression on the Qin family, Wang Pu deliberately put on a piece of chain mail, which was the most comfortable to wear on the body, and the activities were as usual, looking particularly chic and heroic.
Wang Lu explored the way first, so the Qin family was waiting in front of the gate, Wang Pu
got off the horse, saluted with the elders one by one, entered the lobby, and had already set up a sumptuous feast, Wang Pu was unceremoniously feasted, causing the cousins of Miss Qinfu to eat and laugh, Qin Kunan was distressed when he saw this, and said: "The food in the guard is poor, and now it is such a troubled world, the soldiers are dangerous and fierce, and I don't know what my son-in-law plans to make my Pu'er suffer like this." "
"Back to my grandfather, although my grandson is a little bitter in Yanmen, the boy should make a contribution, how can he be productive in the nest all day long. "
These words are like saying after the gate, this boy is good, and he will have a good future. The uncle nodded again and again.
"A few days ago, I heard that there are thieves in Pinglu County, who seem to be called mountain tigers, and the thief's surname is Xu, alas, thieves are rampant, and Chaogang is sluggish, and the year is becoming more and more unbearable. The second uncle said sadly.
"I also have an important thing to remind you here, Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, and the rear of Jiannu will be unrestrained from now on, and it is likely that he will attack us from a long distance to attack Shanxi, and it is best to sell the industry in the north in time and withdraw people to avoid losses. Wang Pu felt the need to remind his relatives that this year Jiannu would enter the Central Plains, and there would be a big war in which millions of people would die.
"Is this true, how did you find out? The uncle asked with some disbelief.
"It's all up to the little nephew to guess. Wang Pu had no choice but to answer like this, he couldn't say that he was a person from the future who traveled back to ancient times, so he knew.
"Heh! Could it be that our third cousin is the reincarnation of Zhuge Kongming, and he will calculate it by pinching his fingers. "The little cousin Qin Jinling is the youngest, but she is the most daring, and she embarrassed Wang Pu in front of her with big eyes.
"Ahem!" The second uncle was too doting on this young girl, and he couldn't discipline him at this time.
"Little cousin, Zhuge Kongming's magic trick is just a novel, and it can't be taken seriously. I didn't pinch my fingers to calculate, Jiannu has not had a good grain harvest in recent years, so I can only grab it from our Daming, but they can't cross the sea to fight Shandong without a boat, and they can't break through Shanhaiguan, where else can they go. Wang Pu doesn't mind, this little cousin is a little beauty, she looks pleasing to the eye, and there is nothing wrong with a little temper.
