Lin Ping'an looked in the direction of Mu Chi's finger and couldn't help being surprised.
They were indeed several tables, but they were very large tables, and the things placed on them were also dazzling and dazzling.
There were shiny silver needles, black crossbows, iron balls covered with thorns, and spearheads with iron chains tied to their butts. As for other weird things, Lin Ping'an didn't know what they were used for.
Mu Chi pointed at these things and said:
"These are hidden weapons and stuff like that."
As he spoke, he picked up a small crossbow and put it on his arm, then pulled a thin calfskin rope tied to the crossbow with his hand and said:
"This kind of crossbow can be strapped to the arm and hidden in the sleeve. It has a range of up to fifty steps. When firing, you only need to pull the cowhide rope."
Lin Pingan nodded. This was the so-called hand crossbow. He had seen it in a novel in his previous life, but there was a look of disapproval on his face.
Because for a modern man like him, these hidden weapons from the cold weapon era are really nothing to mention. Any hidden weapon is not as good as a modern heavy sniper, or an ordinary sq that is fastened to the waist.
Seeing Lin Pingan's expression, Mu Chi asked in surprise:
"Does Dean Xiaolin have any more powerful hidden weapons than these?"
Lin Ping'an waved his hand and said thoughtfully:
"In my opinion, Ming Dynasty's fire guns should be much more powerful than these hidden weapons."
Mu Chi smiled when he heard this and said rather arrogantly:
“Fireguns are indeed powerful, but they may not be fatal if they are farther away, and each reload takes time. How can they be as convenient as these hidden weapons?
The most important thing is to smear poison on these hidden weapons, which can kill them with one blow without giving the enemy a chance to counterattack. "
Lin Pingan sighed and said:
"It may not be fatal if the distance is slightly longer. This is because the fire gun is filled with iron sand. If it can be changed to a more powerful bullet, even a cow can be fatal with one hit.
As for the time it takes to fill each time, it is easier to solve. You only need to make a firecracker with a repeating device. "
Hearing Lin Ping'an's explanation, Mu Chi and others' eyes widened.
"Bullet, what is this?"
Several people couldn't help but scream.
Lin Pingan thought for a while and then said:
"Simply put, a bullet is composed of four parts: a cartridge case, a primer, gunpowder and a warhead. The principle is that the primer is triggered by impact, ignites the gunpowder in the cartridge case, and the warhead can fly out and hit the target.
This kind of bullet has great penetrating power and greater destructive power. Once it hits the human body, it will leave a bloody hole, and the person who is shot will often die immediately. "
When he said this, Lin Ping'an himself was also wondering, that is, in this era, is it possible to create bullets?
Thinking of this, he shook his head secretly in his heart, because even with bullets, manufacturing the gun chamber was still a problem.
Lin Pingan's words made everyone take a breath, and some people couldn't wait to ask:
"Can Dean Xiaolin make such a bullet?"
Lin Pingan shook his head and said slowly:
"Bullets alone are not enough. You need to make a brand-new firecracker to control this kind of bullet. And to make this brand-new firecracker, according to the current level of Ming Dynasty, it is very difficult!"
Everyone was a little regretful, but Mu Chi's eyes lit up and he asked hesitantly:
"It's difficult but it doesn't mean it's impossible, don't you think so? Dean Xiaolin."
Lin Pingan rubbed his hands. He was not sure about this matter, so he could only say:
"I can try my best, but I can't guarantee whether I can succeed!"
After hearing this, everyone looked happy, and someone asked:
"Dean Xiaolin, is this also a gift from the God of Medicine?"
Haha, do I still dare to say that I came up with it myself? Lin Ping'an smiled secretly in his heart and nodded seriously.
Everyone's faces showed a look of solemnity, and someone murmured in their mouths:
"Master Medicine God is indeed a god in the sky, with great magical powers! It really opened our eyes."
Mu Chi thought for a while and asked again:
"Is the continuous fire gun that Dean Xiaolin mentioned just now the three-eyed fire gun of Ming Dynasty?"
Lin Ping'an shook his head. He knew something about the three-eyed fire gun. It was the standard equipment of Guan Ning's cavalry.
This kind of fire gun has three barrels that can be fired in turn. After firing, the gun head is turned upside down, and it becomes a powerful and heavy iron hammer.
The reason why Guan Ning's cavalry are so arrogant and invincible is because everyone is equipped with such a weapon.
During the battle, Guan Ning's cavalry wields this weapon and rushes towards the enemy. He will first shoot you three times, then turn the gun head and smash it hard. Almost no one can withstand this kind of charge.
It's just that Lin Ping'an has always been a little strange. How did those Guan Ning cavalry fire continuously on horseback?
Because the firecracker is different from the guns of later generations. When the guns of later generations are fired, you only need to pull the trigger, but the firecracker is not so convenient.
When firing a firegun, you need to light the match rope first, which is a problem.
Just imagine, while charging, you also have to light the match rope, and then aim and shoot. Moreover, you are still on a fast-speeding horse. This series of operations is really difficult.
What confused Lin Pingan the most was that the wind was so strong when the horses were running. How did those Guan Ning cavalry light the match ropes?
"It seems that I still don't know much about Ming Dynasty's firearms."
Lin Ping'an thought secretly in his heart and said to Mu Chi:
"The three-eyed fire gun cannot be counted as a continuous fire, and the weapon I'm talking about that can fire bullets is a brand new weapon. You don't need to light the match rope when firing, you just need to pick it with your fingers."
So magical? Mu Chi frowned and thought, while the rest of the people started talking about it.
"The gift given by Lord Medicine God is indeed miraculous. If there is such a thing, why should I, the Ming Dynasty, be afraid of the golden thief's cavalry!"
"But you didn't listen to what Dean Xiaolin said. This kind of thing cannot be made with my current level, so I can only think about it."
"But Dean Xiaolin also said that he can try his best to do it. What if it happens again?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I have to let Dean Xiaolin try whatever I say on this matter. Then my three offices will be able to feel proud and proud!"
"But don't forget, firearms have always been under the control of Feng Lei Hall. Will they allow me to take over on my behalf?"
These words reached Mu Chi's ears. Without thinking, he grabbed Lin Ping'an's hand and shouted eagerly:
"Dean Xiaolin, since this kind of thing is mentioned in my three offices, it will naturally be produced by my three offices. I can guarantee that whenever you need it, the three offices will definitely support it. I hope Dean Xiaolin will make it happen! "
After saying this, he bowed deeply to Lin Pingan, and everyone else immediately stood up, clasped their fists and saluted Lin Pingan, and shouted in unison:
"Dean Xiaolin makes it possible!
Lin Pingan was in a daze for a moment. He was just talking casually, but he didn't know that these people would take it so seriously. It seemed that if he didn't come up with a decent gun, he would be in trouble.
In fact, it is no wonder that Mu Chi and others are so eager. If they can produce such a unique weapon, it will be recorded in the history of the Ming Dynasty. No one can refuse this temptation, so at this moment, these people in the three places are a little excited. So much so that he completely forgot his purpose of inviting Lin Pingan to three places.
Mu Chi took Lin Pingan's hand and came to other tables, pointed to the things on the table and said:
"These are the defensive shields, armors, and various soft armors from my three places."
After saying this, he looked at Lin Ping'an eagerly. If nothing else happened, Lord Medicine God must have taught about such things.
Everyone had the same thoughts as Mu Chi and looked at Lin Ping'an expectantly.
Lin Ping'an knew a little about ancient steel-making technology. In fact, most of the hundred-refined steel in the ancient people's mouth meant that it was continuously forged. It was not like modern people who melted the contents of pig iron under high temperature conditions. Impurities are removed, and the proportions of various elements can even be adjusted to form different steel types.
However, this set of theories was too complicated to explain, and these ancient people in front of him would definitely not be able to understand it, so he decided not to talk about steel, but to talk about another building material that he had seen most in his previous life.
"These things are too small and are just for personal defense."
Lin Pingan said lightly:
"There is a thing called cement that is extremely strong. Houses made of this thing can tower into the sky. If it is used to make city walls, even the red cannons of the Ming Dynasty can't do anything about it. Moreover, this kind of thing can solidify in water. It is extremely convenient to use, and this is a defense material that will benefit the country and the people and will last forever.”
Everyone was silent when they heard this, but their hearts were extremely horrified.
They have naturally seen how powerful the red cannon is, but the cement in Lin Ping'an's mouth is not afraid of the red cannon, which shows how strong it is.
"Dean Xiaolin, with my current level, can I make this kind of cement?"
Mu Chi asked anxiously.
But Lin Pingan nodded without hesitation and said:
"No problem, Daming can definitely make this kind of cement!"
Hearing this, Mu Chi's eyes suddenly lit up. Daming's firearms have always been under the control of Fenglei Hall. If Lei Zhen, the master of Fenglei Hall, really wants to fight him to snatch the weapons that Lin Ping'an mentioned before, he really has no choice. But if it is cement, it falls within the jurisdiction of his three offices.
Thinking of this, Mu Chi grabbed Lin Ping'an's shoulders and shook them, shouting:
"Dean Xiaolin, why don't you teach us how to make that cement today?"
As soon as the words fell, the people in the three places stood up one after another and surrounded Lin Pingan.
The people in one place looked at each other, thinking to themselves, what is this? If you want to teach, you should first teach us the art of divine calligraphy of that day!
So these people also rushed up with a roar, started to pull at the people in the third place, and shouted:
"Everything has a first-come, first-served basis. Dean Xiaolin came to our place first!"
