On the day gunpowder came out, Li Qinzai opened the magic box.
Where's the three-eyed gun? It is a devil that flew out of the magic box.
Based on gunpowder, many firearms can be made without relying on modern industrial technology, and the three-eyed gun is one of them.
To be precise, it is more like the shotgun of later generations, commonly known as the big troll.
It first appeared in the Ming Dynasty in later generations. The advantage is that it can be fired continuously, but the disadvantage is that the range is not long.
Before the nationwide ban on guns in later generations, many civilians were able to open their own black workshops to make them, because the workmanship was simple and rough, with basically no technical content. As long as they knew how to forge iron and had gunpowder, they would be able to make it.
Later, after the ban on guns, this primitive blunderbuss was preserved in many areas in the south. If it was not loaded with projectiles and only gunpowder, it was used to ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings during festivals. It was full of ritual.
The three-eyed gun made by Li Qinzai was enough to cope with the naval battle at hand. . He found that today's naval battles often involve shooting arrows and throwing stones at each other, but in the end, the two ships still need to get close and climb on the ship to fight hand-to-hand.
The emergence of the three-eyed gun may have completely changed the tactical pattern of naval battles.
As long as they lined up and fired calmly, the enemy ships would not be able to get close at all. Instead, they would be chased and hit like targets. Archery at sea is full of uncertainties, but the three-eyed gun is not affected. One shot can hit the entire radius of ten feet, which is especially suitable for Japanese boats.
Master Sun Renshi stared blankly at the human-shaped target that had been blasted into disfigurement. He carefully examined the fate of the target and even counted how many bullet holes there were in the target.
After a long while, he looked up at Li Qinzai in shock.
"Li Changshi, this thing... a three-eyed gun, if it is used in naval battles..."
Li Qinzai thought for a while and said seriously: "Within fifty steps, you are invincible."
"It has a weaker range than bows and arrows, but it is more accurate. It is not affected by wind speed and climate, and it is also powerful. It is a group attack skill. A bow and arrow can only shoot one arrow, while a three-eyed blunderbuss can knock down a whole group with one shot."
The explanation was very detailed, but there were some words that Sun Renshi couldn't understand.
However, Master Sun Ren still grasped the key words, precise, fifty steps, one shot.
Li Qinzai continued: "If a musketry battalion can be organized, based on three rows, each row takes turns to fire continuously, a fire net can be formed within fifty steps, and no enemy can break through these fifty steps! "
Master Sun Ren stroked his beard with trembling hands, trying to calm himself down, but accidentally pulled off a strand of white beard. He was obviously very excited and couldn't hide it.
"This thing...I have never heard of it." Master Sun Ren said in a trembling voice.
Li Sujie next to him suddenly said: "Sun Shuai, sir, he said that from the day gunpowder was introduced, war in this world would be different."
Sun Renshi pondered for a moment, then suddenly bowed to Li Qinzai. Li Qinzai was startled and hurriedly supported him: "I am a general manager, and I cannot afford this responsibility."
Master Sun Ren said in a deep voice: "If you can afford it, if this thing comes out, it will save thousands of my disciples in Guanzhong from casualties. From now on, the Tang Dynasty will have no rivals in the world!"
"This gift was given by me on behalf of thousands of Guanzhong disciples and soldiers. It is a sharp weapon for killing people and has great merits." Master Sun Ren said solemnly.
The combination of murder weapon and merit sounds contradictory.
But from the standpoint of a general who was in charge of an army in the Tang Dynasty, this sentence was correct.
Li Qinzai also returned the gift and said, "It's an honor for me to be a lowly official."
Master Sun Ren smiled, turned around and ordered the guards behind him in a deep voice, saying: "Pass the old man's military order, summon all the blacksmiths in the army, open up an open space outside the port and build a workshop, and work day and night to build three-eyed muskets, and fight with the Japanese navy. Before the next war, the entire army must have at least three thousand three-eyed blunderbuss."
"Select strong and skilled warriors from all ships of the navy to form a musket battalion. Before the three-eyed gun is made, the musket battalion must be proficient in tactics and formations. After equipping the three-eyed gun, the musket battalion can fight at any time."
As military orders were passed down one after another, Master Sun Ren's expression became more and more excited.
With Li Qinzai's three-eyed gun, he has a 30% chance of winning this naval battle against Japan. The victory is basically determined.
After Master Sun Ren issued several military orders, he looked at Li Qinzai and said with a smile: "I am lucky to have Li Changshi with the army. People in Chang'an say that there is a Qilin in the British government. Today I have seen it with my own eyes, haha, good!"
"I will write a memorial immediately and send it to Chang'an. After this battle, Li Changshi can take the lead, and I have benefited from you."
Li Qinzai quickly glanced at the envious Li Sujie next to him and said with a smile: "The three-eyed blunderbuss can be made, and the credit does not belong to just the lower official. The disciple next to me also discussed with me and put forward several important ideas."
Only then did Master Sun Ren notice Li Sujie next to him, and asked curiously: "I wonder who Li Changshi's disciple is..."
Li Qinzai whispered something in his ear.
Master Sun Ren's expression changed immediately. He wanted to salute, but he held back, so he could only nod to Li Sujie with a strange smile on his face.
Li Sujie did not pay attention to these details. At this moment, he was deeply shocked by Li Qinzai's words and said at a loss: "Sir, disciple, I, I..."
Li Qinzai patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You have a share of the credit, don't refuse."
With a wink, Li Sujie understood and silently stepped aside with a look of shame.
Li Qinzai doesn't mind giving some credit to Li Sujie. He is very aware of Li Sujie's current situation and understands his worries. Living in the palace, especially the mother-killing enemy Empress Wu in the harem is becoming more and more powerful. If he wants to live a carefree life, Thinking about it, he must have a share of credit.
Now that I have become a disciple, I treat him as my own son. It is only natural that I give my son some credit.
Sun Renshi knew Li Sujie's identity, and subconsciously raised his hand to Li Sujie, then lowered his hand. At this time, he really couldn't reveal Li Sujie's identity, otherwise there would be no guarantee of any unexpected accidents.
"As Li Changshi's disciple, and as someone who contributed to the creation of the Three-Eyed Gun, he should naturally be listed in the credit book. I will go to Chang'an to ask for credit for Li Changshi and... and this disciple."
Li Qinzai and Li Sujie saluted together to express their thanks.
Sun Renshi was excited and happy. He looked up to the sky and laughed a few times. The sound pierced the sky and startled a group of seagulls living in the port.
Turning around and preparing to leave, Sun Renshi still had a lot to do with the three-eyed gun. Li Qinzai was right. From now on, the tactical pattern of naval battles would change. He must go back and carefully study new naval battle tactics, formations of soldiers, etc.
Just after taking two steps, Sun Renshi suddenly stopped and turned around and said: "By the way, just now Silla General Jin Yuxin sent someone to deliver a letter to me, saying that our commander Shi abused Silla Warlord Jin Wenying without any reason, and he wanted me to give an explanation. But Is this happening?"
Li Qinzai said calmly: "Yes, I beat him very hard. I originally wanted to cut off his hands and feet, but I thought that the two countries were a coalition and would inevitably damage the unity, so I let him go."
Master Sun Ren was stunned: "Did you admit it so happily?"
Li Qinzai continued: "But the subordinate is not convinced that I'm being 'abused without reason'."
Li Qinzai recounted Jin Wenying's indiscriminate killing of civilians for fun on the streets of Xiongjin City.
The more Sun Renshi listened, his face became darker, and he said angrily: "These hozens! Both I and Liu Rengui have issued military orders strictly prohibiting the indiscriminate killing of Baekje civilians for no reason. Baekje will be the front line of our Tang Dynasty's attack on Goguryeo in the future. Datang needs to operate slowly. Slowly conquering people’s hearts, these hozens from Silla dare to disobey our military orders!”
After looking at Li Qinzai, Master Sun Ren said: "You are right. In fact, it is okay to break the hands and feet of the warlord. It is not an exaggeration to kill a group of hozens who do not follow etiquette and rules. I will take the responsibility for this matter. I will send someone later." Ask Jin Yuxin about his crime, and the evildoer will complain first, and there is no justice for him to retaliate!"
After saying this, Master Sun Ren left.
Li Qinzai smiled. This obvious feeling of uneven bowl of water was really sweet.
After Master Sun Ren left, Li Sujie looked ashamed and said: "Sir, I made the three-eyed gun. I did not do any work at all. I accept this credit for nothing. I feel guilty..."
Li Qinzai patted his shoulder and said solemnly: "You are different from other disciples. If they were replaced, the credit would naturally not be theirs, but you need a share of the credit."
"With this contribution, your father can pay more attention to you, and you don't have to live so tiringly in the palace. Do you understand?"
Li Sujie's eyes turned red, and he bowed his head to Li Qinzai and said, "I will follow you to the death. Whatever you gain in this life, it's all thanks to you."
Li Qinzai smiled and said: "Don't be sensational at all times. You are very pretentious. I give you the credit. Next time you make a mistake, I won't feel guilty when I whip you. I will whip you to death."
Li Sujie still said emotionally: "Although you teach me a lesson, my disciple will never feel any resentment."
"Don't worry, I will do it. Although master and apprentice are like father and son, they are not biological children after all, so there is nothing I can't bear to part with."
