Zhao Shizhen was greatly surprised when he heard what Ji Xiang said: "It turns out that it was introduced by Zhang Tianshi. Your Excellency, please come in quickly. I'm a humble official with a humble house. I'm neglecting you."
"It doesn't matter."
He invited Ji Xiang in, and the bearded man from the country also stepped aside. Zhao Shizhen quickly introduced: "This is Duosima, the envoy of the Lumu Kingdom. He is a friend of mine and lives in Shuntian."
Fanbang's bearded man also saluted Ji Xiang and said that he was supposed to go to see Emperor Wanli, but there have been too many things going on in Shuntian recently. Not only foreign envoys like him, but also officials from his own country are also subject to certain travel restrictions, so there is no such thing for the time being. There was no way to see Emperor Wanli, so he could only stay at home with Zhao Shizhen and study firearms.
The country of Rumu is Türkiye.
Ji Xiang explained the purpose of his visit to Zhao Shizhen, saying that he wanted to take a look at Zhao Shizhen's firearm research results. Zhao Shizhen originally wanted to say that firearms are prohibited for people outside the War Bureau, but when he saw that Ji Xiang was covered in Arms, this sentence was not said out loud.
"Don't worry, I'm here to help you, not to steal your results."
"That's not what I meant when I was sent to the official position. Your Excellency, I have wrongfully accused you of the official position."
Zhao Shizhen wiped his sweat and invited Ji Xiang into the room. There were many dangerous items in the room. When he entered the door, Ji Xiang saw a "gun" placed on the wooden work table.
Judging from the appearance, it is completely out of the category of firecrackers, and the barrel of the gun is very slender.
"This is called the Rumi gun. It weighs eight pounds and is seven feet long. The firing mechanism is in the bed. It falls off when pinched and the fire will rekindle. There is a steel knife at the end of the bed. If the enemy approaches, it can be used as a slaying sword."
Zhao Shizhen narrated Ji Xiang's story and told Ji Xiang that among the blunderbuss, Lumi's blunderbuss was the farthest and most poisonous.
"Arquebus!"
When Ji Xiang saw this musket, he really couldn't put it down. Compared with the pile of Huomen series weapons equipped on him, the matchlock only had one Five Thunder God Machine, and the Five Thunder God Machine was not as advanced as this real matchlock gun.
Zhao Shizhen told Ji Xiang that he was writing a memorial, suggesting that Emperor Wanli make this kind of bird gun. At the same time, he showed Ji Xiang a manuscript of the "Artifact Manual" he had written. It was not yet complete, but many things had been recorded in it. Firearm types, including the oldest "Gatling" - Thunderbolt.
It's just that these things are still in the fantasy stage and have not been manufactured.
As soon as these manuscripts entered Ji Xiang's hands, Ji Xiang immediately felt a strong desire. Under the influence of these wishes, the firearms he wore actually reacted.
This made Ji Xiang a little surprised. According to what Lei Xuan said to Liu Mengyin, except for books about gods and ghosts, ordinary books, even if they have wishes, are not powerful, and normal books generally have no wishes. The presence.
The formation of this situation is still unclear, but this unbound manuscript written by Zhao Shizhen actually contains such a strong wish?
Moreover, this book has not been widely circulated at all. Without the blessing of the wishes of all people, and without the help of Western methods, how did the wishes in this book come from?
Maybe there are exceptions to everything?
Ji Xiang caught this part of the wish, led it out, and then drove directly on the familiar road, eating first as a courtesy.
If the wish enters the body, it will be immediately eaten by the blank divine card.
As for the explanation results, they came out very quickly.
[The Wish of a Sacred Weapon: A gunman should be equipped with the best weapon, but the use of it is inexplicable, and the weapon is inexplicable! Guns and cannons have the power to destroy strong points and contain sharp edges, and are used to contain conflicts. Since ancient times, the so-called five soldiers have all worshiped them from afar, so they are sacred to them, so they respect them differently! 】
[The yin and yang universe conjures up magical objects. Gunpowder is a masterpiece of alchemy. Firearms can kill living beings and destroy kingdoms. They can subjugate demons and kill ghosts. They are the most yang, strong, powerful and powerful divine weapons. The firearms written in this manuscript are the same as all the firearms used in the Ming Dynasty. When the book is completed, all the wishes (the wishes of all people) of those who used firearms throughout the Ming Dynasty will bless this book. 】
[The wish of the artifact born from the wishes of all peoples will bless three kinds of power. 】
[Dazai Qianhuo: When using firearms, recite "Commander Zhu Rong, General Tai Yi; thunder roars to the whales, and lightning sweeps away the wolf!", you can use the wish of the artifact to bless it, attract the wishes of all people, and increase the power of the firearm. Times, and Yin-type things cannot be defended! 】
[The Fear of Five Weapons: When firearms fight against cold weapons and the opponent has no firearms, the power of your own firearms will be increased to three times. 】
[The last one comes first: the thunder and wind lift, the last one comes first, the clutch is backwards, it changes constantly! When the ammunition of the firearm is exhausted, there is no need for ammunition. Use incense, vitality, five thunder charms, etc. as ammunition to continue fighting! 】
[After the completion of this book, the power of all firearms used by the Ming court will be generally improved. 】
Is this an intensified type of wish?
Ji Xiang was amazed. He didn't expect that such a situation existed. The Ming Dynasty valued firearms, so it gathered a large number of wishes about firearms. Will it bless the person who wrote the book on firearms?
So, this book is actually something that all people want to read? It turns out that it changes in the same way as the Book of Gods and Ghosts.
"Well, what's the noise?"
Zhao Shizhen noticed that there seemed to be some slight creaking sounds, but he could not find the source for a while. He looked at the beams strangely and muttered that the house was about to collapse.
He looked around, while Ji Xiang checked the structure of the gun, and Duosima explained it. After all, this gun was brought from their country as tribute to the Ming Emperor.
During the Ming Dynasty, there were many strange weapons. The firearm technology tree of the Ming Dynasty was also very confusing. Clicking twice on the east side and three times on the west side did not get to the end.
There are also flint-type devices, but the Ming Dynasty focused this technology on mines...
The multi-barreled artillery destroyer cannon, the Shenhuo iron surround similar to the original rocket launcher, and the "Hunjianglong" series of mines that are friction-fired with flint fire sickles.
There is also the most bizarre Taiping Cart. This thing is made of a meniscus-shaped cabinet made of solid wood. The bottom is open and stones are suspended. Two wheels are installed on the left and right sides of the cabinet. There are five holes in the front and five large blunderbuss are installed... .The nature of this thing is that of a wooden tank...
There are all kinds of black technologies in a mess, but they are too many and not refined. Ordinary firearms basically stop at the Fire Gate series. Those that can light the Match Rope series are already considered advanced. This is the situation of firearms in the Ming Dynasty.
Ji Xiang put down the Rumi gun in his hand, then took some paper and made some "tiny suggestions" for Zhao Shizhen.
In Ji Xiang's writing, the principle and structure of the flintlock musket was simply written down.
Zhao Shizhen looked at it and shook his head repeatedly: "This doesn't work, Shangguan, your gun with an iron pellet in the back is just a small Franco machine gun. This doesn't work. It can't be used. It can't lock the air and it will leak."
The Ming Dynasty had already experimented with this kind of breech-loaded firearm, but due to air leakage, there was no way to make progress, and it still stayed at the level of a Franco machine gun.
But he looked at it again and found that Ji Xiang was still writing. Apart from the picture of the breech, there was also a firearm that was familiar to him but somewhat unfamiliar. He stared at it. Finally, after a while, Ji Xiang wrote The finished picture was handed over to Zhao Shizhen, who fell into deep thought.
Duosima was also watching. He tugged at his beard, a little surprised.
The breech loading is not air tight at this time, so the Franco machine is not as good as the Lumi gun, but... of course there is a pre-improved fire gun on the side of this picture. Compared with the wonderful rear gun before The two small firearms experts were amazed when they saw the prototype firearm before modification.
"Perhaps, it can be done! This blueprint is very valuable!"
After Ji Xiang put down his pen, he exhaled and said:
"The thing that the barbarians fear the most from China is firearms!"
