Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 161 Refinement of Firearms

Imperial City, inside the martial arts arena.

Shui Rong took the loaded musket from Feng Ziying and aimed at a wooden straw human-shaped target in the distance. There was a sound of "Bang!" and smoke filled the air. However, the human-shaped target did not move. It was obvious that he had not hit it.

The few people who were following looked at each other, and the governor Liu Fang took a step forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, the recoil of the cannon is huge. When my subordinates used it for the first time, they almost lost their heads and made a joke."

Shui Rong didn't comment when he heard the words. He had nothing to do today, so he took a fire blunderbuss. As a person of later generations, he knew the power of firearms, and the future era would also be the age of firearms.

However, the firearms of the Daqian Dynasty are not perfect at the moment. They still use bird guns, which are also called matchlock guns. The recoil of firing is huge and it is indeed difficult to control. Let alone aiming, it is good to be able to stabilize your body. Strange firearms The soldiers in the camp are all burly men. If they were ordinary people, they would really be a little unsure.

Not only that, Shui Rong had also seen that Feng Ziying was loading slowly. According to the speed of the cavalry, people might rush in front of him with the first shot. Moreover, the range of the bird gun was not far, which was also a major disadvantage.

In terms of many disadvantages, it is not so important to equip bird guns. Although there were firearms battalions in the army of the Qian Dynasty, they were not taken seriously.

After a deep groan, Shui Rong said, "I attach great importance to the power of firearms, but this blunderbuss is too complicated and must be improved."

According to this timeline, Daqian's firearms have lagged behind the West. This is not a good thing. If you want to make a change, you must master firearms.

Liu Fang heard the words and responded: "The Arms Bureau of the subordinate branch, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

"Ordnance is made in the Ministry of Industry and dismantled by the Ministry of War. The conduct of the imperial guards and the internal and external officers and soldiers are all determined." In other words, the yamen responsible for manufacturing arms is the Ministry of Industry. The Governor's Office has no authority and responsibility, but it can There are requirements.

Shui Rong was silent for a moment and then said: "I will inform your majesty about this matter and send some military craftsmen to specialize in firearms. You don't need to worry about the firearms issue. Just focus on the training of the firearms camp."

With Shui Rong's status and so-called holy grace, it would not be a big deal for him to ask for some military craftsmen. Emperor Yongkang would not say much. This finely crafted firearm was very important and he would not borrow it from others.

And not only firearms, but cannons also need to be improved. He believes that the wisdom of the Chinese people, as long as they value firearms and study with concentration, will never be worse than the West. Little does he know that China has gone through the 300-year industrialization path of the West in just one century. , a great eastern country, rising in the east of the world.

If that doesn't work, there are still Franji people, just find a few people who are proficient in firearms to serve as consultants and learn from them.

When Liu Fang heard this, she also understood how much Shui Rong valued the Bird Gun Soldiers, so she hurriedly responded.

After giving all the instructions, Shui Rongbian didn't wait long and returned to the Governor's Mansion under Feng Ziying's escort.

On the corridor, Feng Ziying, who was following behind, saw the prince occasionally rubbing his waist, hesitated for a moment, and approached with concern: "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look."

Shui Rong paused when he heard this. He knew his own body well. He had been making jokes for a long time yesterday and was inevitably a little tired. It's not that his body was weak, but he had always paid attention to health care in the past, and he usually stopped when he saw good things. But yesterday something happened.
It's just like running. I'm used to jogging, and suddenly I'm running with a heavy load. If I can do it calmly, I will really be a god.

But how can we talk about this with outsiders?
Facing Feng Ziying's concern, Shui Rong waved his hands and said: "I stretched my waist yesterday. It's a small matter, innocuous, so there's no need to bother the doctor." Feng Ziying frowned when he heard this, and persuaded: "Your Majesty has a virtuous body, how can you do it? Omission, if the prince does not want to trouble the imperial physician, he has a gentleman who studied in childhood, his surname is Zhang, and his name is Youshi. He is the most knowledgeable, and he also has profound medical knowledge and can decide whether to live or die. This year, he will go to Beijing to give him My son has come to donate his official position, and now he lives in his house, why don’t I ask him to come and take a look at it for the prince?”

Feng Ziying was very concerned about Shui Rong's safety. After all, he was the commander of the guards. How could he not protect Shui Rong's safety? Moreover, it was also related to the Feng family, so he couldn't be careless.

Shui Rong knew Feng Ziying's kindness and wanted to refuse, but when he heard Zhang Youshi's name, he suddenly had an idea in his mind. You must know that many doctors were mentioned in the original work, and most of them were quacks, and they were all from Taiyuan Hospital. Imperial physician.

But this friend is different. When he entered the Ningguo Duke's mansion to treat Keqing, he could accurately describe Keqing's symptoms and pointed out the cause of Keqing's disease by just checking his pulse. This shows that he is really good at it. A man of ability.

Shui Rong now has enough food and clothing, a lovely wife in his arms, and countless concubines. He is enjoying the blessings of his family. He needs to strengthen his body to avoid being in a hurry in the future, so he also needs to hire a full-time professional. The apricot forest master.

Although doctors have different professional occupations, the problem is not big. Please note that everyone in the world has three disasters and six diseases, and no one is immune. If you want to be free from diseases and disasters, having a miracle doctor by your side can avoid unnecessary troubles. .

Thinking about this, Shui Rong responded: "Okay, then let's ask Divine Doctor Zhang to come over."

Beijing Prince's Mansion, "Feng Yiting".

After Yuanchun had washed up, he sat in front of the coffin. A beautiful face was reflected through the bronze mirror. His starry eyes were as moist as water, and there was some lingering charm between his brows. His face without makeup was rosy. Breathtakingly beautiful.

Seeing this situation, Yuan Chun felt a little ashamed, and there was some undetectable rouge on her jade cheeks. Since marrying into the palace, she has become more delicate and beautiful day by day, and she is much more handsome than before. She understands in her heart that the palace is harmonious and harmonious. There was no mother-in-law making things difficult or other annoying things. At most, the affairs in the house were complicated. However, with the help of several sisters, she felt much more relaxed, and naturally she felt comfortable. As the saying goes, love comes from the heart, so does her appearance. Becoming more energetic.

In addition, the support of the husband and wife, Qin Se He Ming, is all the credit of the husband.

It just seems a bit more glamorous, which is not in line with the temperament of a princess.

Thinking of this, Yuan Chun said in a clear voice: "Jinchuaner, there is no need to apply any rouge."

Hearing this, Jin Chuan'er pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Princess, you are naturally beautiful. Those vulgar makeup products are not worthy of you. If you apply them, they will make you less beautiful."

Everyone likes to hear good words, not to mention that women prefer others to praise their appearance. Yuanchun knew that Jinchuan'er had a lively temperament, so he didn't blame Jinchuan'er for being talkative. It was just that she was a princess after all, how could she lose her composure in front of a girl? , so he spat angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, you damn girl, please be smarter."

Jin Chuan'er knew that the princess was not angry, so she said "Hey" with a smile and started dressing up.

Yuan Chun chuckled lightly and then said, "By the way, I'll invite San Yatou and Yun Yatou to come over later."

Yesterday, my husband said that he would go to his parents' house for a casual meal in two days, but he didn't want to inform them so that they could be prepared. (End of chapter)
