Of course, the fire gun can only be fired once, but it was different after Muying invented the three-stage attack.

The current Shenji Battalion is still being trained and formed, and the three-stage attack tactics are also being practiced, so they are not unfamiliar with it.

Luo Zhong listened to Xu Qin's words and decided that this battle would also use three attacks.

Everyone was shocked by such a result. The results of continuous shooting by just thirty people were so amazing.

Ever since Luo Zhong arrived at the market, Xu Qin had summoned all the blacksmiths at home. He was really disappointed with these Ming dynasty guns.

So a matchlock gun was built. It would take decades or hundreds of years to develop from this traditional fire gun to a matchlock gun.

But it is not a technical problem, but a tactical problem that has gradually been explored and matured in the war. Without long-term exploration and continuous adaptation in human warfare, mature weapons would not emerge.

Hot weapons have just started, and people all over the world are still stuck in the practical use of cold weapons. The impatient Xu Qin directly pulled up the progress bar.

The original purpose was to drink too much, be disappointed after seeing the fire gun, and then brag to Luo Zhong.

After sobering up, in order to cash in on his talent, and also to build himself a shotgun for fun.

It took three days to build the first real matchlock gun. It’s just that the steel of this era is substandard, and casting seamless steel pipes is nonsense.

So the rolling method was used, where the steel was rolled onto a straight iron bar and beaten. Then roll a layer of wrought iron in a staggered manner and continue beating.

Although this is not a seamless steel pipe, it is barely usable. Then after polishing, the first barrel was born.

Then there is the gun butt and the mechanism behind it. Xu Qin only needs to briefly describe how to use it and what needs to be paid attention to.

The craftsman quickly realized it. It's just that the first one was too heavy when it came out, and the caliber was too large.

The Shenji Battalion had a mature loading method, and everyone looked at this strange thing as if it were a joke.

Why do I feel that the curved gun stock is weird, and the long iron pipe is such a waste of iron. It's not as practical as making some knives and guns.

But after firing the first shot, Luo Zhong's jaw dropped. Whether it's power, operation, or range. It is more convenient and much stronger than the current fire gun.

All the spectators rushed to try it out. As expected, only those who had actually participated in the battle knew the benefits of this thing.

Everyone couldn't put it down.

Xu Qin was dissatisfied. This thing was inferior to the native guns in rural areas in later generations. It has to be scrapped and remade.

Luo Zhong didn't let go at all. He held on to the first matchlock gun and fumbled with it, feeling closer than holding his wife.

Xu Qin had no choice but to find iron and make another one. As the craftsman's maturity increased, the second one was much stronger than the first one.

However, it is still limited, and neither the caliber nor the weight has been reduced. It was difficult for him to lift this thing, not to mention the powerful recoil.

But Luo Zhong was very interested and asked him to continue making it.

This thing is too scrap metal. Xu Qin’s family has a lot of money, but qualified steel is nonsense.

Luo Zhong tried his best to get hundreds of kilograms of iron and steel, and then made a total of sixty sticks.

Xu Qin also got them horn gunpowder pots that were easy to fill, pipes, iron sand, and a wooden fork to support the matchlock gun.

He also taught them three strikes. As well as a modified version of the three-stage shooting, someone is responsible for loading ammunition, someone is responsible for delivering it, and someone is only responsible for shooting.

Of course he did all this painstakingly not for fun, but to save his life today.

But this is not the result he wants. What he wants is to repel these people, as long as some corpses are left and can point to the King of Han.

But he was a layman in war, and everything was based on imagination. These cavalrymen despised the firecrackers of the Shenji Battalion.

Everything happened so fast that people were defenseless. These fierce knights waited for the firecrackers to stop and rushed over to kill them.

There was no thought that anything was wrong, and I was dragged into a dead end by habitual tactics.

And when he charges, he doesn't even think about anything else. As a result, they were all killed by the Shenji Battalion.

The Shenji Battalion uses three-stage strikes, not just the sixty fire blunderbuss made by Xu Qin. Instead, a group of firecrackers with half of the troops were concentrated.

That's why we can shoot continuously.

Luo Zhong didn't even need to look at these people. Just by looking at these horses, he knew they were military horses. And you can tell where it is at a glance.

Also, these people’s weapons and the attire they wore under their clothes were not bandits at all. But a soldier

Where did the hundreds of bandits from the elite cavalry come from in Yingtian Mansion?

Xu Qin was also stupid. He wanted to dig a hole for the King of Han, but he didn't expect it to be such a big hole.

One hundred elite soldiers died here.

But you’re already here, so don’t be polite. He went straight to Dinghuai Gate and called at the door all night.

Xu Qin had been preparing for this big trap since he saw the King of Han on the street.

There is no need to compromise with someone like him, because he is a greedy man with no bottom line. Have no idea what is enough.

In his eyes, the world will belong to him sooner or later. And he couldn't be bothered to cover it up. Do things in a domineering manner without leaving any room.

If Xu Qin takes one step back, he will take two steps forward. If he doesn't join his men, Xu Qin will be eaten up and wiped clean.

So everything Xu Qin did next was to anger him, and Gan Chang deliberately excluded all his family's business.

The prince mentioned the misdeeds of the Hanwang steward in front of Zhu Di, deliberately giving an opportunity to the salt merchant Dai family who had taken refuge in the Hanwang steward.

Insulting Wei Chun in Mianyue Tower was actually insulting the King of Han. Of course, it was purely a coincidence that Yunhe did that to Wei Chun.

Xu Qin did all this deliberately to anger the King of Han. Then he hid in the military camp, not giving King Han a chance at all.

Then he created a target for the king of Han. He asked people to spread the market and make money, and made a lot of money.

He even brought 40,000 taels of silver to Man Yue Lou on the street, showing off like this. It was to arouse the desire of Hanwang to rob.

This is a pie specially set according to the irritable character of King Han. You must know that the King of Han has always had the habit of setting up armies and plundering, and he has never changed his habit despite repeated admonitions.

On the last day of trading in the market, Xu Qin accumulated ten carts worth of gold and silver. He didn't believe that the king of Han, who was robbing and eager to take revenge on himself, would not be moved.

On the last day, the people from the Shenji Battalion had ostensibly retreated, and the gold and silver also headed towards the Duke of Wei's mansion.

When he arrived at Dinghuai Gate, Xu Qin thought his plan had failed. Next, we have to face another blow from the King of Han.

Unexpectedly, he had the audacity to choose to do it at the door.

If you want to leave safely with such silver outside Dinghuai Gate, there is only one way, and that is the dock of Longjiang Shipyard.

As long as they block this road, they won't be able to take away the money. If they can't take away the money, they will have to fight. Fighting leaves bodies behind.

Then there will be evidence for the King of Han to drink a pot.

Unexpectedly, the results of the battle were so shocking, leaving more than a hundred corpses. The fierce sound of firecrackers even alerted the Jingying camp responsible for the defense of the capital.

As soon as the gate of Dinghuai Gate opened, the British Duke Zhang Fu rushed out with a large group of people.

"The British man saved me, someone robbed and killed someone." Xu Qin stopped the British man and complained first.

The British Duke glanced at Xu Qin.

"Let's make trouble. I'll see how you end it. Let's arrest him first." The British man tied up Xu Qin with a wave of his hand.

Xu Qin slapped his head, damn it. I'm really lost. Isn't this just throwing myself into a trap?

For doing this in the capital, Dingguo Duke Zhang Fu didn't even know how to say good things to this dandy. Is this a rebellion?

Although I don’t know the specific details, it must be the person involved who didn’t take the initiative to come to complain. Let’s talk about it now after being arrested.

"Dong Guo, I am a victim, how can you tie me up?" Xu Qin shouted that he was wronged.

Zhang Fu ignored him and urged the team to move forward quickly. Luo Zhong's team was soon surrounded.

"Master Guo, why is it you?" Luo Zhong looked at Ding Guo Gong and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

When Zhang Fu saw that it was him without saying a word, he whipped his face first, causing Luo Zhong to scream in agony.

But he didn't dare to move. He knew that if he dared to touch the Duke, he would definitely chop him.

Luo Zhong fought against Annan with Zhang Fu and has always been his soldier. Now although the Shenji Battalion has been formed and has come to the capital.

It's because he knows this commander's temper so well. I can only stand there and get beaten.

Ding Guogong Zhang Fu rode around and whipped him until his head was bruised and bloody.

"Why are you working for this little bastard? Do you know what you are doing?" Zhang Fu, the Duke of Dingguo, pointed at Xu Qin and yelled.

"Young Master, we have accepted His Majesty's will and obeyed the Young Master's instructions. We haven't passed the time yet, and today is the last day."

Luo Zhong replied loudly with blood on his face.

Zhang Fu breathed a sigh of relief. This idiot subordinate managed to save his life.

"This is the capital, remember, it's not Annan. Are there some things that you can get involved in? I've warned you to eat more and talk less, why are you so..."

Zhang Fu was so angry that he almost raised his whip again.

He was angry with this one-minded former subordinate and brought him to the capital just to enjoy his happiness. How could he be involved in this matter? How on earth was he persuaded by a dandy to become a gunman?

Beat him badly to save his life.

"My lord, I have something good." Luo Zhong said as if he was offering a treasure.

The next moment was when Xu Qin was tied up and watched two stinky men having sex. Shot after shot, and in various positions.
