At the end of September, outside the capital, there was a hidden foot of the mountain.

Zhu Xu stood above a bunker, groping for the black spear in his hand, his eyes shining. If he hadn't been for his little arms and legs, he would have wanted to try it.

Not far below the bunker, a hundred "new recruits" stood straight, their military uniforms were brand new, quite majestic, but they lacked some evil spirits.

"Your Highness, you are all ready."

Cao Wenzhao was wearing a gold-clad uniform, fish and dragon suit, and he also looked majestic, standing behind Zhu Xu and said.

Zhu Xu looked at the hundred people below. Each of them had a spear in his hand, standing at his feet, neatly and uniformly, without any confusion. Before them, a silver young general stood in the wind, looking a little thin.

Zhu Xu can see from his clothes that he should be a deputy, a deputy, and a general.

Zhu Xu was curious and turned to look at Cao Wenzhao and said, "Who is the leader?"

Cao Wenzhao's face changed, and then he calmly said: "Go back to Your Highness, this person is my nephew, named Cao Bianjiao."

Zhu Xu immediately raised his eyebrows and turned his eyes to Cao Bianjiao below, and was secretly surprised: "It turned out to be him, I forgot about him, it's not bad..."

Seeing Zhu Xu's face strange looks, Cao Bianjiao was suddenly shocked and quickly knelt on one knee and said, "If your highness feels it is inappropriate, my subordinates will transfer him away immediately!"

Zhu Xu waved his hand quickly and said with a smile: "No, no, I think of him. I will train him well. Read more military books and start."

Seeing that Zhu Xu had a bright smile, Cao Wenzhao was not the kind of guarding, and he relaxed his face, and agreed, picked up the flag behind him and waved it.

When Cao Bianjiao saw it, he waved his spear and shouted: "Start!"

He was ordered to take orders, and one hundred people carried long spears and rushed forward quickly.

Crossing the country, crossing the river, horizontal bars, barbed wire, walls... Zhu Xu could think of all obstacles here. One hundred people quickly circled around, and stood in the last three rows, with gunfire everywhere, knocking down all the targets 300 meters away.

It was the first time Cao Wenzhao saw such an exercise and said happily to Zhu Xu: "Your Highness, this firearm is much more powerful than those in Liaodong. If you really can go to Liaodong, you will definitely teach the Tartars a great lesson!"

Bi Maokang also said, "Your Highness, although the sight is still not high, if you can really open the wire mesh and tunnel, you will definitely be able to stop the cavalry's first wave of charge, and then you can use infantry to deal with them!"

Zhu Xu listened to the two of them and smiled and said nothing.

I am quite satisfied with the current situation, but it is not realistic to send it to Liaodong now. After all, Bi Maokang has never been on the battlefield. It is true that the cavalry charge is terrible. Another more important thing is its mobility. It will not always stand there and shoot at the muskets.

Therefore, the flintlock rifle can only be in the defensive stage. With cannons, the cavalry charge loses its power. If you want to truly form combat power and be able to siege the city, you must first increase the range, then large-scale equipment, and at the same time train a high-quality army of more than 30,000 people!

After a fire ended, the original shooting range was beyond recognition, and all the targets were shot to the ground. Zhu Xu roughly calculated that the target should have exceeded 300, and it took less than three minutes.

After Cao Bianjiao finished shooting, he shouted, leading a group of people to form a team again, trotting to Zhu Xu's bunker, and shouted loudly: "Your Highness, the drill is over!"

Zhu Xu smiled with satisfaction and said loudly: "It's very good. I am very satisfied. Each person will be rewarded with 30 taels of silver. I will have half a day off. Today I will have wine and meat!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Cao Bianjiao shouted and raised his spear into the sky.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

One hundred people also waved their spears and shouted loudly, their voices trembling and echoing continuously.

Zhu Xu smiled more and stood at the crowd for a while before turning around and getting off the bunker.

"Your Highness," Cao Wenzhao walked behind him, saying, "They have already recruited all the people, they are young and strong, and they are in very good health. However, this firearm is not enough. Some of them were modified, not made according to the drawings of Lord Bi."

Zhu Xu nodded. If you want to manufacture this firearm on a large scale, you have to be sneaky. Naturally, there is no way to be fast. It is good to be able to build fifty or sixty shots in more than two months.

Bi Mao hurriedly continued Kang: "Your Highness, what you are missing now is gunpowder. The end of the year is approaching, so it should be much more convenient. After the New Year, you should be able to create five hundred poles."

"Okay," Zhu Xu also breathed a sigh of relief, and he smiled and said, "Okay, go and see the cannon."

When Bi Maokang heard this, his expression was revived and said, "Your Highness, please come to me."

In order to facilitate drilling and not be noticed, this place is very far away from the capital and is crowded.

Bi Maokang took Zhu Xu to the wilderness, with two black cannons in the stone pestle, which looked black and more than what Zhu Xu had seen in TV series.

Bi Maokang walked closer and pointed at a slogan, "Your Highness, this red cannon came from the Dutch. It was abandoned and sent to me. This was copied by me. It has been improved a lot and has greater power."

Zhu Xu walked forward and touched the door imitated by Bi Maokang. This door costs at least two or three tons, and its power is extremely small.

Zhu Xu looked back and forth for a while before turning to Bi Maokang and said, "Can you try it now?"

Bi Maokang took out a booklet from his arms and said, "Your Highness, the imitation is not enough. I have calculated the red cannon, and I will record the data here according to your requirements."

Zhu Xu took the booklet and looked at it, nodding from time to time.

This red cannon has a sight, with a range of about two thousand meters. According to Bi Maokang's booklet, the imitation will change the length and material of the cannon barrel, as well as the casting method. The distance can be increased to more than three thousand meters, and the effective lethality can also be increased by a large part.

However, Bi Maokang did not mention the power of the shell, and Zhu Xu had no choice but to do so. Gunpowder had to rely on professionals to increase its power.

Zhu Xu, who was thinking divergently, soon thought of the battle in Ningyuan and muttered to himself, "Can you directly bombard the enemy and bomb Nurhaci accidentally?"

When Bi Maokang saw Zhu Xu in a daze, he said, "Your Highness, the soldiers are about to have dinner soon. Do you go over and take a look?"

Zhu Xu raised his head and realized that Bi Maokang was going to make him have a show of having fun with the generals.

"Okay, let's go." Zhu Xu put the booklet in his arms and said with a smile.

Zhu Xu went to the soldiers' cafeteria, but Wei Zhongxian, who was in the capital, had no peace for a moment.

In the Sili Prison, he was called over in a hurry, looking at the note in his hand, his face turned pale and his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.

This is a memorandum for Chen Liangxun, mainly impeaching him.

He looked at the memorial and said word by word, "The power of the country will be in trouble, and the country's fortune will end! Good..."

"Father-in-law, these people are going to kill us! We must not tolerate us anymore!"

"That's right, if you don't give them a look, they don't know how to advance or retreat!"

"Father-in-law, you can't be kind anymore. You have to kill a few people so that they can be quiet!"
