Grenades are the biggest blow that Zhao Peng can give to Li Zicheng, but he can only provide grenades. As for the formula of new gunpowder, he must not be given, so as not to avoid the recipe of Shun Army after the Qing Army was defeated by the Qing Army and the formula was obtained by the Qing Army.

Li Zicheng was overjoyed when he learned that the new weapon made by Zhao Peng had succeeded and personally took the soldiers and a large group of guards to the Military Weapons Bureau to watch Zhao Peng's new weapon test.

"Boom boom boom" Five Shun Army soldiers threw grenades at the same time. Fire flashed on the shooting range, and smoke filled the fire, stirring up flying sand and stones. Scattered scarecrows fell down in a row with the explosion, and some scarecrows even had their armor torn to pieces.

"What a powerful thunder!" Li Zicheng stroked his beard and laughed, "Why are our army afraid of Jiannu with this weapon?"

After saying that, Li Zicheng looked at Zhao Peng with a smile: "Zhao Aiqing, what do you want me to have?"

"I only hope to kill Jiannu more to shock my power in China! I don't ask for rewards!" Zhao Peng replied loudly with a righteous spirit.

Li Zicheng laughed: "Zhao Aiqing, I heard Luo Aiqing's words. The Princess of the Ming Dynasty is here, so I will reward you with the princess!"

Everyone was in an uproar, and the Shun Army soldiers were talking about it. Some Shun Army soldiers who made great contributions also received the daughter of a palace maid or a criminal minister. However, the emperor actually rewarded the princess to a newly-reduced Jinyiwei lieutenant. This was great for him? I heard that the princess was so beautiful that many Shun Army soldiers had already salivated at her. However, after the city was broken, the princess disappeared, but she didn't expect that she was in this kid.

Zhao Peng was also secretly shocked. He thought that this was done perfectly, but he didn't expect that Li Zicheng knew everything. And the one who told Li Zicheng about this matter was Luo Yangxing, the former commander of the Jinyiwei!

But thinking about it, Luo Yangxing was the former commander of the Jinyiwei. Although he had already stepped down and Wu Mengming served as the commander of the Jinyiwei, there were still many Luo Yangxing in the Jinyiwei! In the capital, what could be hidden from Luo Yangxing? But fortunately, Li Zicheng did not care about this matter with him, otherwise he and the princess would be in danger.

In fact, Zhao Peng was wrong. Although Li Zicheng had known that Princess Kunxing was with Zhao Peng for a long time, he would not be like this, because he had no intention of making things difficult for the princess. In history, Li Zicheng did not make things difficult for Princess Kunxing, but instead helped her heal her injuries.

Zhao Peng didn't expect that Li Zicheng was so hidden. He had known Princess Kunxing's whereabouts for a long time, but pretended not to know. Although Li Zicheng was just a postman, he was not a simple person to survive so many years of war. If he had no skills, how could Li Zicheng survive to this day?

Now that things have come to this point, Zhao Peng couldn't say anything anymore, so he had to kneel down and salute: "Thank you Your Majesty!"

Li Zicheng asked as if he remembered something: "Zhao Aiqing, although this object is good, the Jiannu bow and arrow are extremely powerful. This object can only throw thirty steps, but Jiannu can shoot light arrows up to 150 steps, and direct heavy arrows can also be fifty steps. How can our soldiers approach Jiannu and throw this thunder to kill Jiannu?"

Zhao Peng replied: "To throw this thunder and thunder requires elite heavy armored men. Your Majesty can carefully select a group of strong armored men, wear multiple armored men, and be invulnerable to swords and guns. Just approach Jiannu and throw this thing."

"If Jiannu uses heavy cavalry to block our army, how can he solve it?" Li Zicheng asked again.

The cavalry's impact speed is fast, while the grenadier's throwing distance is only thirty steps. When facing the cavalry who enters thirty steps, there is only one round of killing effect. After that, the grenadier will be swallowed up by the enemy's heavy cavalry.

Zhao Peng replied: "The iron armored grenadiers can be equipped with turtledove guns. Each troop is equipped with a turtledove gun and a powerful slingshot. In addition to the musket shooter and slingshot master, each grenadier is equipped with a long-handled axe, which can be used to fight in close combat or in distance. When the enemy is far away, he can use a turtledove gun to shoot it; if some are closer, he can fire the thunder of the sky to kill the enemy; if the Jiannu cavalry is closer, he can throw the thunder of the sky to kill. After getting close, he can kill the enemy with a long-handled axe."

"Good idea!" Li Zicheng laughed, "As Zhao Aiqing said, I will ask me to form an armored grenade!"

In fact, Zhao Peng had originally planned to help the Shun Army to conquer the Qing army. Not to mention anything else, just say that the Zhongzhen Camp in history was the last force of the Ming Dynasty's resistance to the Qing Dynasty, so he should help them. After the Zhongzhen Camp failed in the Southern Ming Dynasty, the Thirteen Kuidong families fought against the Qing Dynasty until the fourth year of Kangxi, and failed under the full encirclement and suppression of the Qing army. The Zhongzhen Camp resisted the Qing Dynasty for twenty-one years! Just for this, they were national heroes.

Looking at the entire history of the Southern Ming Dynasty, the original Ming army surrendered and turned into the Qing army. The original Shun Army, the Daxi Army and the Southeast Pirates. The group of people who were called thieves by the Ming Dynasty shed the last drop of blood for the Ming Dynasty.

The most useless bottom line was the civil servants and gentry in the north. They surrendered to the Qing army and became executioners to suppress the resistance of the Southern Ming Dynasty. The southern gentry was somewhat better. Most of the gentry who died heroically were southerners. Even if the water was too cold, they secretly assisted the Southern Ming Dynasty.

In fact, this is also related to interests. The northern gentry was robbed of silver by Li Zicheng and distributed the land, so that they could no longer ride on the heads of the common people and acted as a blessing. However, when the Qing army came, they surrendered to the Qing army and could oppress the people with the Qing army. However, the southern gentry was different. The Qing rulers had long coveted the rich southern flower world. In order to win people's hearts, the Qing court inherited the privilege of the Ming gentry not paying taxes. In order to squeeze out more wealth, the Qing army could only wave a butcher knife to deal with the southern gentry, which led to the rebound of the southern gentry. Another key is the rebound caused by the shaving order, and the southern gentry resistance was particularly fierce.

The northern gentry's rebound to the shaving order was not as fierce as the southern one. That was because the Qing army invaded several times, and the northern gentry had long been afraid of being killed. The southern gentry attached more importance to "the body, hair, skin, and parents, and they dare not hurt them. It was the beginning of filial piety." Moreover, the hateful rat-tail braid of money was too ugly, so the southern gentry rebounded fiercely.

As for the "water is too cold and the scalp is itchy" that shaved his hair on his own, itchy because the Qing court in the north was not valued. In addition, Liu Rushi, the water is too cold and finally secretly assisted in the anti-Qing forces.

This time, Zhao Peng used more than 300 kilograms of white sugar, plus nitrate and rust iron, and made more than 1,200 grenades in total. More than 1,200 grenades were used during the test, and more than 1,200 were used. According to the number of grenades, Li Zicheng formed a 500-man iron-armored grenade battalion, equipped with the old camp cavalry led by Li Guo himself.

Li Zicheng carefully selected 500 tall and strong soldiers and distributed them to the most exquisite armor. Each soldier was wearing three layers of thick armor, one in the innermost part of the chain mail, one in cotton armor on the outside, and one in the outermost part of the armor. Such three layers of heavy armor could completely ignore the Qing army's bow and arrow shooting, and could also block the knife and gun stabbing. The helmet used the Ming army's six-pound pointed iron helmet, and was equipped with an iron mask, which only exposed two eyes, so that it could prevent the heavy arrows that the Qing soldiers shot towards the door.

Among the five hundred grenadiers, 270 were grenadiers, and the other fifty-four were slingshots, and fifty-four were musketeers, each five were equipped with a turtledove gun and a pair of slingshots. The turtledove gunner and slingshots were equipped with shields, geese slingshots and javelins. The slingshots were also equipped with two grenades, and three grenades were equipped with long-handled axes, and each was equipped with four grenades.

The remaining 122 people, of which 120 were gunners, equipped with thirty tiger squat cannons and twenty light Franchise machines of 100 kilograms. The gunners also carried long-handled axes as self-defense weapons. In the end, the two were the chief and deputy chiefs of the Grenadier Battalion.
