At the end of the Ming Dynasty, I freely traveled through Yangshen

Chapter 41 Daming's Rotten Armament
This thing is unreliable when you think about it. Zhou Guozhang is a famous miser. He can't afford to spend a lot of money on Chen Yuanyuan and other famous prostitutes. This is obviously unrealistic.

Zhu Cixiang looked at his beautiful mother with a simple mind and said slowly: "Mother, my son told Wang Chengen that he dreamed of entering the fairy world and was guided by immortals. As for Hai Laoliu and his mother Hai Lao Tai You, you are all immigrants I brought from the fairy world!"

Queen Zhou's expression changed when she heard this, and she exclaimed: "Ah! There really is such a world of immortality! Did Brother Chun bring anything else out of the immortal world? Is there any way for our Ming Dynasty to survive this disaster? Are there any immortals?" What instructions?"

Zhu Cixiang nodded, "Yes, yes, yes. This time when I entered the immortal world, I was accepted as a disciple by an immortal, and I also received the inheritance of immortal magic. The inheritance of immortal magic is divided into martial arts and Taoism. I was trying it with Zhu Chunjie before. The power of martial arts, as for those two people, they are the residents I brought out in the fairy world."

"but…"

After saying this, Zhu Cixiang's tone changed and he sighed, "But the immortal said that my Ming Dynasty is in trouble. According to the calculation of heaven, in two months, Juyongguan will fall, and Juyongguan Tangtong and Du Zhixu will fall." If you surrender to the intruders, tomorrow, two months later, the intruders will march outside the capital city and garrison Diaoyutai. Two months later, the day after tomorrow, they will besiege the city and attack, and the army will press the border!"

"what!"

Hearing that Empress Zhou was going to be ill all of a sudden, her voice was trembling, "Immortal, what did the Immortal really say? Then after two months from my Ming Dynasty, will I..."

After saying this, Queen Zhou could no longer speak. Her eyes turned red all of a sudden, and two lines of clear tears flowed down. No matter how you look at it, it makes people feel distressed.

Seeing that his biological mother burst into tears, Zhu Cixiang quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, mother, don't worry. This time my son enters the immortal world and acquires the inheritance of martial arts and immortal ways, which will make the Ming army stronger. The martial arts methods are especially powerful. I guess It can protect me from the Ming court."

Zhou Hou looked at her son trying to comfort her, and her expression became slightly calmer, but her tears still couldn't stop falling down. She was not stupid, and she would not really believe in martial arts or immortality. As she said, she only thought that her son was trying to make her happy and make her feel a little better.

But no matter how hard she tried to make herself feel better, Zhou Hou still couldn't hide her inner sadness. She felt uncomfortable when she thought of Beijing, which Zhu Cihong said would be besieged in two months.

Because once the city of Beijing is destroyed, the noble generals of Beijing may be fine, but she, the queen, will definitely commit suicide because of her integrity. Of course, everyone is afraid of death, and she has not lived enough!
Zhou Hou choked up and asked Zhu Cihuang: "Brother Chun and Wang Chengen said so much, is it because they want to use the power in Wang Chengen's hands to cultivate a group of people who can inherit the martial arts? But Wang Chengen is a useless honest man. He definitely can't count on you, he told your father everything you told him."

"He has been the Admiral of the Nine Sects for so long, but he has not done anything famous in terms of city defense. Brother Chun, please don't count on him. He is useless except for listening to your father's words."

Hearing Empress Zhou's comments about Wang Chengen, Zhu Cixiang was speechless for a moment. He didn't expect Wang Chengen's incompetent character. Empress Zhou saw it more clearly than Emperor Chongzhen.

"More than that, more than that."

Zhu Cixiang shook his head, "My son entered the fairy world this time and found an excellent place to stay. As long as we train our weapons, we can still survive this catastrophe." "Brother Chun, are you serious?"

After Zhou Hou heard this, she was stunned. She didn't think that Zhu Cixiang really planned to let Daming enter some fairyland. This was obviously unreliable. If the two people who appeared from Zhu Cixiang's palace really came from some fairyland, Zhou Hou obviously didn't believe it. of.

After all, hearing is believing and seeing is believing. The information she heard came from others after all. It has been processed, so it cannot be believed. These days, there are not many things that are rumored to be miraculous. It’s a strange force that confuses the gods, and it’s nothing!
"Really, it's all true!"

Zhu Cixiang's expression was extremely serious, "Mother, you must believe me. In fact, the fairy world is similar to our lower world, but the fairy world only has more powerful people who can fly to the sky and escape from the earth, and whose blood can boil the sea with Brahma. Most places are still the same. Mortals and various dynasties, this time I entered the fairy world and settled in a place called Izumo Country. This Izumo Country only has a population of more than 20, and its military equipment is very lax."

"Cixing, do you want to lead the people of Ming Dynasty into this Izumo country with a population of only more than 20?" Zhou Hou thought for a while, "But this is not a fairyland. Even if there are only more than 20 people, it seems that even We are a small place that is not as good as a county in Ming Dynasty, but it is inevitable that there will be some tricks, what should we do?"

"Mother." Zhu Cixiang said with a smile when he heard this, "A remote and remote place like Izumo has a population of just over 20. How strong is the military preparedness? There are many people practicing martial arts in the immortal world, but they have not practiced martial arts. Even if you become a martial saint and have not yet mastered the Taoist skills to drive objects into manifestation, they will not have much offensive power. Although our Ming Dynasty does not have such mysterious means as martial arts and immortal ways, our Ming Dynasty has the advantage of firearms."

"The benefits of firearms? Are those guns that explode after a few shots and are regarded as treasures by the nobles of the military camp? Every year, countless funds are allocated from internal funds, but in fact they always shoot things that explode indiscriminately?"

"Mother, how do you know so much!" Zhu Cixiang smiled awkwardly. Although the Ming Dynasty had a lot of firearms in this era, the quality was really bad. He didn't expect that Zhou Zhou would know these things clearly.

"A few years ago, a Westerner named Tang Ruowang compared Western firearms with our Chinese firearms and wrote a letter about raising a new army. Your father originally wanted to do it, but there was really no money in the treasury, so he gave up. ”

After hearing this, Queen Zhou explained to Zhu Cixiang, "So we women in the palace all know a little bit about the military situation of the Ming Dynasty. This is not a rare thing."

"That's right."

Zhu Cixiang nodded, "However, the guys in Nanhai Zijing Army are all useful, right? That was a batch of high-quality goods sent by Zheng Zhilong, a merchant from Southeast China, and was assigned to Yongwei Camp and Nanhai Zijing Army. Among them, Nanhai Zijing Army The army has three hundred turtle-dove-footed firecrackers, all of which are being used by the firecrackers brought by Pan Shuchen."

At this time in the Ming Dynasty, the military household system and the craftsman household system had almost collapsed. The Korean firecrackers did not explode, the Japanese firecrackers did not explode, the Western firecrackers did not explode, and the Western cannons copied by the folk in Guangdong and Foshan did not explode. As for the government-made firecrackers, if the government-made firecrackers were a little sharper, the Jurchen and bandit uprisings outside the Pass would not have become so fast.

　The confrontation between firearms and martial arts is also a good idea.
