Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 887
Prince Kang immediately praised him and made an exception to allow him to join the counter-insurgency army as a "commoner".

The development of the war afterwards proved that Prince Kang did not misunderstand the person.

Dai Zi carried out effective maintenance, repair, improvement and manufacture of firearms for the counter-insurgency army.

This enabled the Qing army to have an absolute advantage in firepower strikes, thus greatly improving its combat effectiveness.

After the war, due to Dai Zi's outstanding performance, naturally it was a great achievement!Prince Kang once again made an exception and brought him to meet Mazi.

Because of his extensive reading of poetry and books, his work in poetry and prose, coupled with his talent "beyond ordinary people" in the manufacture of firearms.

The young man who won the pockmarked emperor at the moment was awarded the imperial lecturer and became an important reserve of the Qing Empire.

After Dai Zi served as a lecturer in the Imperial Academy, his talent in firearm design was fully utilized.

First, the Dutch envoys paid tribute to the country's new muskets to Emperor Mazi in order to show off the country's powerful force to the Qing Dynasty!
For this reason, Mazi ordered Dai Zi to imitate the country's musket quickly and give it back to the envoy to destroy his prestige.

At present, Dai Zi fulfilled her mission, and in just a few days, successfully imitated ten Holland "Bird Bowls" and gave them back to the Dutch envoys.

This move not only defended the dignity of the Qing Empire, but Dai Zi's superb weapon design ability also won unanimous praise from the ruling and opposition parties.

From then on, the young Emperor Mazi relied more heavily on Dai Zi in the design and manufacture of firearms.

Soon, in order to cope with the Northwest War, the Manchu Qing needed a powerful artillery to equip the Qing army.

At this time, Dai Zi was still in command, and in less than ten days, the design of the new firearm "Sub-Mother Cannon" was successful.

The power of this gun is obviously superior to all the firearms equipped by the Qing army at that time, and the weight is only about 300 catties. It has to be said that it is a "miracle" in the firearms manufacturing industry in the 17th century!
At that time, whether it was Europe or China, there was always such a "stubborn disease" in the manufacture of firearms.

If a firearm pursues a long range and high power, it will inevitably result in a huge volume and weight, and one or two thousand catties is "small meaning".

This inevitably limits its disadvantages such as mobility and transportation difficulties. If high mobility is pursued for easy transportation, the range and power of the firearm will often be restricted.

The mother-child cannon designed by Dai Zi is the predecessor of the howitzer.But it solved the "difficulty" that plagued the world's firearms design circles!
This design of his not only solves the disadvantages of poor mobility and inconvenient transportation of the artillery, but also takes into account the advantages of long range and high power of the artillery, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!
After Mazi watched the drill of the mother-child cannon, Sacred Heart Joy named the cannon "General Weiyuan".

The gun showed its power in the "Battle of Zhaomodo" that broke out shortly thereafter!

The fragments of artillery shells overwhelming the Mongol Galdan army were crying for their fathers and mothers, and they were immediately defeated. It was impossible to maintain a strict military rank under such fierce artillery fire from the Qing army.

In an instant, the Mongolian cavalry, who were still like wolves and tigers just now, abandoned their weapons and ran for their lives.

So far in the first battle, the Galdan army has been devastated, and has not dared to invade the country for ten years. The Mongolian Khalkha region has returned to the embrace of China.

Later, he invented the Lianzhu firecracker, which is a musket. It was invented in the Song Dynasty, and it was equipped with the army as a firearms team in the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties.

In the Yuan Dynasty, when Mongolia conquered Western Asia and Europe, artillery teams once displayed their power.

Later, the oriental musket technology was learned and improved by people in Italy, Portugal, and the Netherlands (the Netherlands and Belgium).

At the end of Ming Dynasty, Nurhachi's Eastern exile army once invited European technicians to guide the development of "Red Barbarian Cannon" and other munitions.

Both Matteo Ricci and Nan Huairen, the Jesuits who came to China, participated in the gun manufacturing activities in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Dai Zi's invention is the "Lianzhu Huobao" that can fire 28 rounds continuously.

According to records, there is a magazine on the back of the gun, which can store 28 rounds of gunpowder and lead pellets.There are two blunderbuss machines, which are connected to each other. When one machine is pulled, the ammunition will fall into the barrel, and at the same time the other machine is released to fire. It can shoot 28 rounds of bullets continuously.

Sitting at home, misfortune comes from the sky. Dai Zi frequently shines in firearm design, but it doesn't bring him any good luck.

Soon, Mazi exiled his family to the northeast outside the pass under the name of "Tongwo".

In the following 30 years, Dai Zi experienced all kinds of hardships and hardships in the world, and finally died of poverty and illness!
It is a pity that a generation of weapon masters ended with such a miserable scene.

After Dai Zi's demise and death, Huaxia had no designers or firearms experts capable of developing modern artillery and firearms for the next 200 years.

Dai Zi's whimsical design of guns flowed into Europe through the information delivered by Nan Huairen and others.

Since then, China's military firearms technology has lagged far behind the West.

There have been two versions of how Dai Zi was convicted in history.

1. Nan Huairen, Mazi's most beloved missionary at that time, was jealous of Dai Zi's amazing talent in making weapons.

However, this gentleman was really inferior in skills, so he resorted to poisonous tricks, colluded with Zhang Xianzhong's righteous son who had surrendered to the East captivity, and wrote a letter slandering Dai Zi for "communicating with foreign countries and colluding with the Japanese country", but he didn't want Mazi to believe it.

2. Mazi doesn't trust Dai Zi, he just uses his talent in firearms design and manufacture!

After the domestic war was pacified, it was planned to get rid of it to prevent anti-Qing forces from using it.

Therefore, Mazi used Dai Zi's unwarranted charges of colluding with the "Japanese Kingdom" to commit misconduct, and exiled his whole family outside the icy and snowy customs, where they were strictly guarded.

In fact, just relying on a "foreign monk" and a "second-five boy" who had just turned against the water not long ago, "take down" the hero who has made outstanding achievements in one fell swoop?
This is really not in line with the image of Emperor Mazi who has always been wise and powerful. The only reasonable explanation is that the ruling class of the Qing Dynasty premeditatedly eliminated potential "hidden dangers" as a strategy!

Dai Zi is a Han Chinese, and mastering the invention technology of advanced guns is undoubtedly of great strategic significance.

Dongyao ruled China with a small clan of only 10 people, fearing that the Han people would master new arms technology and revolt to overthrow it.

In the early Qing Dynasty, the so-called closed-door sea ban and the prohibition of access to the ocean were actually not economic, but political issues, and it was also related to the taboo of obtaining Western military technology for the fear of Han Chinese access to the ocean.

Ma Zi is the hero, he knows Dai Zi's inventions and abilities like the back of his hand, so he uses them when he has something to do, and restrains them when he is in peace.

This is the real reason why Dai Zi was wronged and was exiled and refrigerated outside the customs for 30 years.

Zhu Youjian asked Zhao Shizhen after seeing the machine gun manufactured by the Daming Weapons Manufacturing Bureau:
"How much does it weigh? Is it easy to carry?"

Zhao Shizhen cupped his hands and said:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this machine gun weighs 64 kilograms, and it is difficult for a single soldier to carry it!"

Zhu Youjian nodded:
"It's too heavy, so add two wheels to it so that soldiers can push it while marching, and it's also convenient to move and shoot. You have to finish it before the imperial conquest. I'll give you seven days!"

It took seven days to build two hundred machine gun wheels, which was nothing to the Daming Weapons Manufacturing Bureau.

Zhao Shizhen hurriedly received the decree:

"According to the order, the arsenal can be completed in three days!"
