Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

"Those North Koreans are hard to fight? Do we need to use our latest firearms?"

Zhang Xin doesn't look down on North Koreans, it's just the fact.

The Korean envoys who came to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute were, in any case, high-ranking officials and nobles from Korea, similar to the aristocratic families in China.

Logically speaking, these young men from noble families in Korea have always been well-fed and well-dressed, and have married noble ladies from high-class families, so they should be very good in appearance and demeanor.

There were many noble ladies in the public, and quite a few of them were pretty.

But the Korean envoys that she accompanied Zhu Gaochi to meet were not only short in stature, but also had a hard-to-describe appearance. In terms of military strength, they were just show-offs.

It would be fine to use a musket in a place like this, but why use the latest three-barreled gun?

"It's not difficult to fight. Zhanji brought the latest batch of students from the Imperial College to practice military training. They are all good seedlings. Zhanji didn't want any casualties, so he asked Dad for a three-barreled gun."

Zhu Gaochi explained.

"If there is no blood, it is not military training!"

Zhang Xin disagrees.

"Killing those dwarfs won't give you much experience."

Zhu Gaochi saved his son's reputation.

"For a small country like this, it's a good time to train troops. Every general has fought his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood."

Zhang Xin didn't agree anyway.

"It also means to test the power of the three-barreled gun."

Zhu Gaochi felt that it didn't matter, it was always better if fewer of his people died.

The firearms in the Shenji Camp have been upgraded to the fourth generation, and there are also more accurate bird guns that can shoot down flying birds in the sky.

In terms of artillery, there are general cannon, tiger squatting cannon, and enemy-destroying cannon.

With the addition of sugar, the gunpowder in guns and cannons has become several times more powerful.

Who knows, firearms may dominate the world in the future.

The victory or defeat of a war no longer needs to be determined by the accumulation of human lives, but directly depends on the advancement of weapons.

Zhu Zhanji has always been a smart child.

I guess he had thought of this, so he took the latest batch of students from the Imperial College to the trial.

"Okay, I'm a layman, so I won't give you blind orders. But what's so powerful about this three-barreled gun?"

After a little thought, Zhang Xin felt that she might not be as spiritual as her son.

She had made up for all the lessons learned from her previous life, and now her development was completely different. She no longer had the foundation to guide others.

"Do you still remember my father's three-stage attack?"

Zhu Gaochi felt like giving Zhang Xin a lesson.

"Remember, the muskets had to be reloaded each time they were fired, so they would be sent out in three rows. After the first row finished firing, they would retreat to the last row to reload gunpowder, and the second row would take over."

Of course Zhang Xin remembered. This was the tactic Zhu Di used to sweep across the desert.

"The current three-barreled gun has three barrels, sharing one tail. The caliber of a single gun is about one finger joint, and the total length is less than two feet. Each barrel has a chamber and a firing port, so it can fire three rounds in a row. Combined with my father's three-stage shooting tactics, we can fire nine times in a row. The gunpowder is two cents and the lead bullet is one cent and a half. It saves gunpowder and doubles the power of the original fire gun.

Zhanji led his men out this time and also researched a new use. The cavalry could carry three-barreled guns and fire while charging.

After firing, you can swing it up and hammer the enemy in the head. The tail of the three-barreled gun can also be equipped with wolf teeth and blades, so that you can protect yourself and kill the enemy once you are trapped in the enemy's formation. "

Zhu Gaochi became more and more excited as he spoke, and he was almost dancing.

[Small science: The three-barreled gun is one of the light firearms in the Ming Dynasty, made of iron or crude steel. It first appeared during the Jiajing period. The tiger squatting gun and the exterminating gun beat the Japanese iron artillery team badly during the Wanli Korean War.]
