The ministers went to work with their own thoughts. Liu Zhen and Wu Lin, the Minister of War, were left behind by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Now that the Ming Dynasty has just been established, many things are managed by large parties. If there is no Ordnance Bureau, it will have to be established nine years later.
Not to mention the Saddle and Bridle Bureau of the Armor Factory, which only existed in the second year of Xuande, more than a hundred years later.
Zhu Yuanzhang took out a stack of paper and handed it to the two of them, "There are methods for making flintlock equipment, there are methods for making flintlock muskets, and there are methods for making ammunition. The gunpowder we have been using is not good enough." "
After the two got it, they were not in a hurry to leave. They just looked at it here. The more they looked at it, the more they became fascinated. There were pictures on it.
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored them and corrected the question papers by himself. He was in a happy mood. The prince was getting married, so he sent good firearms.
Although it is more difficult to make than a fire gun, it is easy to use, has a long range and fast reloading speed. Even the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty still want to fight with our Ming Dynasty
"Your Majesty, since we have this musket Fire the gun and stop making firecrackers."
Wu Lin finished reading but didn't remember it. Anyway, she knew she could make it. The problem now is how to arrange the firecrackers.
After Zhu Yuanzhang finished approving a question book, he raised his head, "There are good and bad muskets that consume too much copper."
"Your Majesty, after making the flintlock gun, you should Replace the firecracker and melt the firecracker." Liu Zhen also had problems.
"Well, let's see if the firecrackers can be given to other armies."
Zhu Yuanzhang was reluctant to part with them, so he finally made the copper into firecrackers and then melted them back, which would cause losses.
The fire blunderbuss is not as good as the flintlock gun, but it is still a good weapon, the kind that can kill people.
He waved and said, "Go to your business."
When the two of them left, they had to find someone to learn how to make it when they got back, so there was no time to waste.
When Zhu Yuanzhang thought about the firecrackers, he was a little upset again. After taking a sip of tea, he regained his composure and continued to criticize the question book.
After he finished approving it, it was almost dusk. He yawned, thought about it, and went to Kunning Palace for dinner.
The prince is also there. He is a little nervous. Seeing that he is about to get married, he comes to talk to his mother.
"Biao'er, how do the people in Xiaqiu Village arrange their evenings?" Zhu Yuanzhang had to consider the people in Xiaqiu Village no matter how tired he was.
“This year we have some cows that have died of old age, and we plan to give them beef, which they will cook at Fuhua House.
Fuhua House will not charge them for room and board anymore. They taught Fu Hua Lou how to bake cakes and bread, and how to reheat roast duck.
The skills are popular everywhere. The key is that Fu Hua Lou’s shopkeeper knows the goods, and that oven can bake many things.” /p>
Zhu Biao talked about what Zhou Zong reported when he came back, including where he went to play today and what he ate.
A palace maid rubbed Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulders and beat his legs. After hearing what the elder said, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a lot less tired.
He thought for a while and said, "Ask Zhou Zong to ask when he delivers the beef whether the firecrackers we have in Ming Dynasty are going to be melted."
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to refer to the master's advice. The solution is to tell the villagers and wait for the villagers toPeople will naturally be able to send letters when they return home.
Zhu Biao immediately found paper and pen to write, and sent a eunuch to send it out. He was waiting here for dinner.
After receiving the order, Zhou Zong rushed to Fuhua Building with fifty kilograms of beef.
The shopkeepers at Fu Hua House are busy. Today’s staple food at Fu Hua House is cake. The two floors in front are full and there are people queuing up.
It started selling at noon, and in the evening more people knew about it and came to try it. Some people packed it up and took it home, while others ate other dishes and cakes in the restaurant.
People in Xiaqiu Village can only stay in their own courtyards to eat. Everyone warms their feet first and then thinks about what to eat. Eating in the same courtyard is very lively.
Zhou Zong brought beef and a bunch of side dishes, and the village taught them to the palace that they can be used for any meal.
You can even eat steamed buns, rice and other staple food directly with side dishes.
"Zhu Lichang, fifty kilograms of beef and some seasonings commonly used in the village, you can watch it.
Another thing, the thing you copied wrongly is better than a firecracker. What to do with the fire gun?"
Zhou Zong completed the task first. The flintlock gun you made is too powerful.
Li Chang's eyes lit up and he smiled, "This meat, I have to ask everyone what they want to do. Regarding the firecrackers, please wait for me."
Said he Enter your room in the courtyard and take out two pieces of paper after a while. "Zhou Sheren, give this to the prince. There are good methods for fire guns in it."
"Zhu Lizhang, put it in the envelope and use fire paint." Can you please give me a seal?”
If Zhou Zong doesn’t answer, are you kidding me? I don’t want to know. It’s not good to know too much.
The manager waved his hand, "No need for this, it's easy. I'll ask them what they eat."
He stuffed the paper over and turned around to look for Hanhan, who was the elder in the village. In the yard, he showed the village elder his physical condition.
The village elders went out for a long time today, and the sun was very hot and poisonous. It was the first time for the village elders to visit Nanjing, and they were so excited that something might go wrong.
Zhou Zong took the paper and thought for a while. He would be suspected anyway, so let’s take a look at what it is.
There are pictures on the paper, including manufacturing methods and usage.
After he finished reading, he was about to go back and report. The head of the department came in a hurry, "Great, Zhou Sheren hasn't left yet. We want Astragalus and Atractylodes. Let's get half a pound first."
"Someone is sick" Zhou Zong was stunned.
"No, being sick is not the same thing. Just so you brought the beef and we cooked a dish." The director shook his head.
"Okay, I'll go back first, you guys are cooking other dishes." Zhou Zong put the paper in his pocket and ran away.
Zhou Zong couldn't enter Kunning Palace, so he had to report to someone from the Prince's Mansion and send the letter there to tell them to get the medicine.
The eunuch of the Prince's Mansion ran to Kunning Palace and handed the paper "Long live Lord, medicine, I need medicine over there, half a catty each of Astragalus and Atractylodes."
"But someone is sick. "Zhu Yuanzhang was nervous. People came over to watch the ceremony. What's the point of dying here?
"No, it's for cooking.. "The eunuch shook his head.
"Go and make arrangements, alas." Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved, picked up two pieces of paper and looked at them, and was stunned when he saw them.
There are three things on the two pieces of paper, one is Adding a cap and a fire door cover to the fire gun can prevent it from getting wet.
The other is a wooden piece, which is the most important thing and can increase the range of the fire gun.
The third one is the arrow for shooting. Instead of just shooting beads, the arrow is put in and shot, and then a bunch of very small beads are used to fill the gap left after the arrow is released.
Shoot like this. After that, the beads and arrows are sprayed out together. The arrows can fly hundreds of steps. The effective distance is unclear. It depends on where the enemy hits, whether there is armor, etc.
"The expert is in the team." Zhu Yuanzhang gave the paper to his son, and he thought about the eunuch who came in to ask for medicine.
He knew that this was called food supplement. There was an old man in the village, and he probably felt uncomfortable after walking around for a day.
It means that there must be someone in the team who can read, otherwise whoever dares to take medicine blindly and the other party will give him a solution as soon as he asks.
This is wrong, there is not that long to draw the picture, it is clearly written in advance. .
The other party probably took into account the situation of the existing muskets when making the flintlock musket.
"Don't expect the enemy to be ahead of the enemy in the war?" Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that he had. What's your mood?
