Make Cannons!
Zhang Yang sat in the military tent and practiced the emperor’s consecration technique, and his whole person exuded an aura that was above all things.
If ordinary people feel this momentum, or their knees become weak, they kneel on the ground.
Zhang Yang opened his eyes, and the next second, someone walked in outside the door: “Commander, as you ordered, I brought a few master craftsmen near the Yangtze River. They are waiting for you in the barracks.”
a
The visitor was Chang Yuchun, his face was a little pale, and it seemed that he had been in contact for many days.
“Take me there.”
The two came to the barracks. This is a special place to receive outsiders. Of course, it was also set up by Zhang Yang. After all, the barracks should be a place to keep secrets. If anyone could come in, it would be a little messy.
When he entered the tent, he saw the three masters fidgeting, and one of them was even trembling.
Zhang Yang knew what was going on with this, because when he told Chang Yuchun to go, he told him to invite these people over no matter what method he used, and now the method seems to be a bit cruel.
“Several masters, under Zhang Yang, this time I invite you all to come here as a last resort. Don’t take offense to a few of you.” Zhang Yang greeted him with a smile on his face.
The so-called people who don’t reach out and don’t hit the smiling face, even though there was some resentment in their hearts, the masters didn’t say anything at this time.
After Chang Yuchun left, the curtain of the tent was pulled down, and there were only Zhang Yang and three old masters in the small room.
In the confined space, several old masters raised their hearts in their throats, but a bolder master said loudly: “Commander, Su Wen, you love the people the most, what do you want us to do today?”
“Looking at your figure, it should be Master Luo Youtian, right?” Zhang Yang’s eyes flashed, and the message of Master Luo suddenly appeared in his mind.
Luo Youtian, who grew up in the Yangtze River, has extremely rich experience in making cannons, and is an ancestral skill, but since the Yuan people gained the world, there is no room for them to survive.
Now, he and these people who have experience in making cannons are hiding in a township and earning a living by blacksmithing.
Firearms actually existed as early as the Song Dynasty, but because of the complicated production process, difficulty in production, and high production costs, all dynasties and dynasties did not pay attention to the production of cannons.
After the Yuan people got the world, they didn’t take it to heart at all. They had their own artillery craftsmanship, and they got the world again, but they had a feeling of being on the sidelines.
“It is also a blessing for me to be remembered by the commander, but I really don’t know what the commander asked us to do. We are just a few old people who can strike iron. If you let us fight weapons, I’m worried that If the war is broken, if we let us go to the battlefield, you can see that my brother’s hands are shaking.”
Master Luo had a pitiful look on his face: “Commander, please show mercy and let us go back. We just want to work hard to earn a living.”
Are you trying to hide it?
“Master Luo, don’t worry.” Zhang Yang took a sip of tea and said, “Are you really just old men who know how to strike iron? Why do I hear different things here?”
“Oh? What is the commander saying?” Master Luo continued to pretend to be stupid.
Zhang Yang’s expression was indifferent: “You know that I have always loved the common people, and I have never killed or requisitioned indiscriminately. Then you should know that I am a person who speaks the truth. If someone lies to me, it will bring harm to my family.”
Several old people were shocked, and the man whose hands were shaking before had the urge to admit it.
Fortunately, Master Luo hurriedly stopped his hand, stabilized him, and then said to Zhang Yang: “Commander, we are a group of old people who only know how to strike iron, and we don’t even know a single big character. What are you asking us to do?”
Zhang Yang nodded slightly: “Okay, then you can leave after answering a question for me.”
huh…
Hearing Zhang Yang’s words, several people relaxed a little.
“Leader, may I ask.” Master Luo was also a little bolder. He always believed that Zhang Yang didn’t know their origins, and was just testing them at this time.
“Did you say that making guns is made of iron?” Zhang Yang’s eyes were faintly cold.
He had already found out that these people would make guns and guns. If they wanted to hide it, then he would do what he said.
Boom!
A few people were shocked, and Master Luo hurriedly knelt down and said anxiously: “Commander, what are you talking about, what makes guns and cannons? We will only make some simple weapons!”
“Hey, Master Luo, do you think I’m not sure that I will summon you?” Zhang Yang’s eyes were full of disappointment, he shook his head and said, “I’ll give you one more chance, remember, you can save your life by telling the truth.”
“I, I said…” Before Master Luo spoke, the trembling man beside him spoke up: “We used to work for the Imperial Army of the Song Dynasty Ministry of Industry, and now decades have passed. If the commander needs it, we will Maybe even make that musket!”
Master Luo softened like a deflated ball.
Zhang Yang said coldly, “Master Luo, do you know what will happen if you deceive me?”
Master Luo nodded desperately and swallowed: “I ask the commander to let my family go…”The brother beside him hurriedly said: “Commander, commander, we can make artillery, please let Big Brother Luo go, he is just for our good!”
Having said that, the other person hurriedly explained: “You don’t know anything about Commander. Before, officers and soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty were looking for us, saying that we were going to put our old party in the previous dynasty to death, so we didn’t dare to say what we did.”
When Zhang Yang sees the effect, naturally they will not kill them all, but if they are so intimidated, they will do their best and say: “I will not kill you, as long as you work for me well, now I have a question to ask you, You have all made muskets, but have you ever thought about making them dozens of times larger? Even a hundred times larger?”
Hundred times?
A few people were stunned for a moment, and then their faces showed fearful expressions: “If they can really succeed, then they can destroy a city at will!”
At the moment of imagining, several people were excited.
At the beginning, the Song Dynasty was able to produce 3 million muskets every year, but the effect of these 3 million muskets is not as good as producing a few cannons!
They didn’t think of this at first, thinking that the musket was the end of the gunpowder weapon.
Now being awakened by Zhang Yang, several people can’t wait to try it.
Seeing that they were excited, Zhang Yang arranged a place for them to rest in Hezhou. It was next to the military medical office, guarded by Dai Qisi. It was the safest place in Hezhou.
Of course, except where Zhang Yang is.
After arranging everything, Zhang Yang also began to plan something in his room. The table was full of black and white paintings, and it was full of them.
