"Oh, what baby is it?"
Cao Cao asked.
Cao Ang, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, and Jia Xu who were standing next to them also looked curious when they heard this.
According to Yang Ling's character, it would be fine if he didn't take action. As long as he takes action, it will definitely be extraordinary!
"Zilong, bring it up for the Lord and the others to see."
Yang Ling greeted.
"Here!"
Zhao Yun placed the things in his hands in front of Cao Cao.
Everyone looked around.
I saw that the object was wrapped in cloth, and from the outside it could be seen that it was a tube-shaped object.
Yang Ling spread out the cloth, revealing its true face.
This pipe seems to be cast from iron or crude steel, and looks a bit like bamboo-like pipes joined together.
And on the outside of each tube, there is a small hole.
Seeing this weird appearance, everyone was confused.
"Sir, what is this thing for?"
"Reporting to my lord, this thing is called a three-eyed gun. It can break through heavy armor within fifty steps, and it can severely damage unarmored enemies within a hundred steps."
Yang Ling introduced.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened, and some couldn't believe their ears.
In ancient times, swords and guns were not prohibited, but the circulation of armor was strictly prohibited.
The reason is very simple. On the battlefield, there is a huge difference between having armor and not having armor.
It is no exaggeration to say that a professionally trained armored soldier can easily defeat four or five enemies.
In later Tang Dynasty armies, as many as 60% were armored soldiers, which was a big reason why the Tang army was able to sweep across the world.
However, Yang Ling actually said that such strange-looking things could break heavy armor.
It’s really unbelievable!
"If my lord and the gentlemen don't believe it, I can show it to you."
Yang Ling smiled.
"Okay! Please sir, please open our eyes."
Cao Cao agreed without even thinking about it.
Everyone got up and left the mansion with Cao Cao, and came to the military camp outside the city.
There is a large school ground here, enough for Yang Ling to demonstrate the power of the three-eyed gun.
He ordered people to prepare armored targets, and then placed the three-eyed musket fifty paces away.
Under Yang Ling's command, the soldiers first put the gunpowder in, then the crushed iron sand, and finally added match ropes to the small holes.
"ignition!"
The match rope was quickly ignited, and a moment later, only three loud bangs were heard.
Fire exploded and smoke filled the air!
The huge momentum even shocked Cao Cao and others!
When the soldiers brought the target from a distance, everyone was even more surprised!
I saw that the armor was full of dense holes punched out by the three-eyed gun!
If this hits someone...
Everyone simply couldn't imagine that kind of scene.
"I didn't expect the power of this thing... to be so great! If this thing can help me, why worry that my father can't bring peace to the world?"
"Young Master, what you said is wrong!"
Guo Jia on the side shook his head.
"Although this object is very powerful, it seems to be more troublesome to load?"
"Feng Xiao's words make sense. If you fire a three-eyed gun once, a skilled archer will be able to shoot three or four times, right?"
Xun Yu also nodded in agreement.
"What these two gentlemen said is absolutely correct."
Cao Cao chuckled lightly, his eyes full of excitement,
"But you have forgotten that it takes at least a year and a half to train a qualified archer."
"And this three-eyed blunderbuss seems to be like a crossbow. It can be used by ordinary soldiers in two or three days at most, right?"
"My lord, you really have a keen eye, it's true!"
Yang Ling smiled and flattered him and said,
"In addition, the three-eyed gun is also quite restrained against cavalry."
Imagine the scene where the opposing cavalry charges and hundreds of three-eyed muskets are fired!
That picture is simply too beautiful!
"However, the three-eyed gun also has shortcomings, such as being inconvenient to carry, etc. It needs further improvement."
"Please leave everything to sir!"
Cao Cao patted Yang Ling on the shoulder.
"Could this thing have been invented by Mrs. Huang?"
Cao Ang suddenly remembered something and interrupted to ask.
"good."
Yang Ling nodded and smiled.
"No wonder the teacher insisted on bringing Mrs. Huang back. That's it!"
Cao Ang couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
After Yang Ling brought Huang Yueying to Xudu, he first offered the Lingyue Repeating Crossbow, and then took out a powerful weapon like a three-eyed gun!
All this is enough to prove how far-sighted Yang Ling is!
After seeing the power of the three-eyed gun, Cao Cao immediately decided to let the craftsman's workshop begin large-scale production of black powder.
As for the three-eyed gun, it was produced after repeated improvements by Huang Yueying!
…
A few days later, it happened that Dian Wei and Xu Chu were on vacation together.
Yang Ling invited them to his house and the four brothers had dinner together.
The topics that men talk about most when together are nothing more than money, beautiful women, and career.
People like Dian Wei, Xu Chu, and Zhao Yun didn't care about money or beauties, so the topic naturally fell on the general trend of the world.
"Brother, does he know that my lord is planning to use troops against Huainan in the past few days?"
Dian Wei took a sip of Moutai and said with a smile.
Are you ready to attack Yuan Shu so soon?
Yang Ling was slightly startled, then relieved.
After Yuan Shao defeats Gongsun Zan and unifies the north, there will definitely be a war between Cao Cao and him.
In order to avoid being stolen from the rear during the battle with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao must first deal with Yuan Shu.
"Brother, with your intelligence and wisdom, wouldn't it be easy to deal with that loser Yuan Shu?"
Xu Chu smiled and said,
"Why don't you take the initiative to ask for the tassel from my lord, so that you can make a great contribution."
"Okay, let's forget it!"
Yang Ling waved his hand.
Just relying on his current connections and connections, he stayed behind honestly.
Wouldn't it be nice to advise Boss Cao and spend time with the beautiful lady in the house?
Why go to the front line when you have nothing to do?
A few people drank for a while, then got up and left.
Yang Ling glanced at the sun and frowned.
The Moutai wine and perfume business is getting bigger and bigger, and Yang Ling is a hands-off shopkeeper, so Mi Zhen goes out early every day to deal with business issues.
But usually she would be back before noon.
But it's already past noon, why hasn't Mi Zhen come back yet?
Just when Yang Ling was considering whether to send someone out to look for him, he saw several servants running into the hall.
"Old... Master, Mrs. Mi... something... happened..."
Several servants said out of breath.
Yang Ling felt anxious and asked quickly,
"What happened to her, ma'am?"
"Just now, when Madam was reviewing this month's accounts in the wine shop, she encountered some scumbags who were teasing Madam."
Several servants said,
"We originally wanted to stop them, but several of the disciples seemed to have a lot of background, and the guards following them were all vicious..."
"What?!"
Yang Ling was stunned at first, then became furious.
His grandma, how dare someone molest his VN partner?
It’s really unbearable for my uncle, but intolerable for my aunt!
"Go and call the Third Master over!"
