"Imperial Father, what did you just say?"
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang running over with a face full of joy, Zhu Rong picked his ears arrogantly and said with a smile,"You seemed to have said that I was pretending. What's the result now?”
"You little brat, have you grown bold? You even dare to mock us.”
Although Zhu Yuanzhang also felt his face heat up, it didn't stop him from teaching Zhu Rong a lesson.
It was only right and proper for a father to teach his son a lesson.
Seeing that a big fight was about to land on his head, Zhu Xiong shouted repeatedly,""Mom, dad is starting to be unreasonable and even wants to beat me up.”
"Zhu Zhongba, you've grown bold, haven't you?”
Seeing this, Empress Ma stood up and walked to Zhu Yuanzhang. She reached out and grabbed the latter's ear.
That posture was exactly the same as when he was carrying Zhu Rong.
"Sister, sister, let go!"
"Boss and Fifth Brother are still here. Leave us some face."
Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly begged for mercy.
In this world, if there was anyone who could suppress Old Zhu, it would be Empress Ma.
"Now you know how to save face. Just now, you were being unreasonable. Why didn't you think about saving face when you wanted to hit No. 5?”
"Is it difficult for a father to admit his mistake in front of his son?”
Not only did Empress Ma not let go, but she also began to lecture Old Zhu with a stern face.
Seeing this, Zhu Biao looked deeply at Zhu Xiong.
How could he not see that Old Fifth had deliberately set a trap for Imperial Father just now, wanting to use this to ask Imperial Mother to teach Imperial Father a lesson.
This fifth brother was really cunning.
Not only Zhu Biao, but when Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Xiong crossing his arms and looking like he was watching a joke, he instantly understood that the fifth son of a b * tch had deliberately set him up.
However, he had no choice but to swallow this loss.
"Sister, we were wrong, we were really wrong. Hurry up and let go!"
This time, Old Zhu's begging for mercy was finally useful.
"Humph!"
After Empress Ma let go, she lectured him." Old Fifth fiddled with such a good thing. It's fine if you don't reward him properly as his father, but you actually want to beat him up. You're really going back to your old ways."”
He watched as the farce came to an end.
Zhu Biao couldn't wait any longer. He quickly approached Zhu Rong and took the flintlock gun from him. He began to study it curiously.
"Fifth brother, such a small and exquisite thing is actually a firearm. How did you make it?”
"Also, why doesn't this handgun have a fuse? How did it ignite the gunpowder inside?”
"Also, with such a short barrel, why is it that its range is so much longer than a long gun, and its power is also stronger?”
“....”
Zhu Biao asked more than ten questions in a row, which seemed to have turned into a hundred thousand whys.
Zhu Xiong didn't hide anything and explained to his big brother one question at a time.
Unfortunately, Zhu Biao could only understand the gist of the professional explanations.
"Big Brother, there's no need to pay attention to these details. Let's just focus on the results!”
Zhu Rong took back the flintlock from Zhu Biao. After loading the ammunition, he handed the small flintlock back to Zhu Biao." Brother, try it?"”
Zhu Biao looked at the flintlock in front of him with great interest and surprise in his eyes. He rubbed his hands on both sides of his coat and carefully took the flintlock.
"How do we fire?"
Zhu Biao sounded nervous.
"Do you see this mechanism? After aiming, you can fire it with a light flick.”
As Zhu Rong guided, he waved to Wang Jinghong, who was far away, to get a new target ready.
A loud bang was heard, and flames appeared.
"Oh my god!"
"Fifth, you're right. Baby, this is a big baby!”
Zhu Biao said with trembling hands.
He wouldn't know if he didn't try, but he was shocked when he tried.
Just now, he had thought that Zhu Rong had deliberately exceeded the firing range of the flintlock to gain more face in front of his father.
He only knew after he tried.
How powerful was this little thing?
Fifty steps?
No, no, no. Zhu Biao felt that the flintlock gun's shooting range was far beyond this.
If he sacrificed some accuracy, not to mention fifty steps, he could easily shoot from sixty steps, seventy steps, or even a hundred steps.
"Let us try it too!"
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't take it anymore when he saw Zhu Biao's satisfied expression.
Bang bang bang ~
Immediately, the sound of flintlocks being fired rang out continuously on the practice field.
Not only Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang, even Empress Ma couldn't help but give it a shot when she saw the three of them having fun.
Zhu Yuanzhang only stopped when all the targets stored in the training ground were smashed into pieces.
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was having a good time, laughed out loud.
"As expected of our child. His brain is so bright. I knew it, Fifth, you little bastard, made a treasure and not a toy.”
Then, he glanced at Zhu Biao, who loved the flintlock gun so much that he couldn't bear to part with it." Look at you, you haven't seen the world yet. Don't you find it embarrassing?"”
Hearing Old Zhu's words, Zhu Biao did not lose his temper. The corners of his mouth twitched and he said in a low voice,
"Father is right."
Compared to the original handgun, the flintlock had many advantages.
Fast firing rate, small caliber, short barrel, light weight, and low recoil.
It was very convenient to carry and did not need to be ignited to launch, greatly improving the launch efficiency.
According to Old Fifth, there were also infantry flintlocks and cavalry flintlocks.
These two weapons were larger than the one in his hand, and the barrel was longer.
But at the same time, it was also more powerful.
The range of a single round was almost two hundred steps.
Moreover, compared to the original handgun, its accuracy was several times higher. It was not impossible to hit the target even if it was two hundred steps away.
In the past, he did not even dare to think about such a thing.
Zhu Biao couldn't bear to part with such a treasure, so he didn't care if his father scolded him for not seeing the world.
"If our Great Ming army is equipped with this kind of flintlock gun, then the light cavalry that expand the perimeter is nothing to be afraid of.”
After personally testing the power of the flintlock, Zhu Biao was a little excited and said such bold words.
"Haha!"
"Indeed, this flintlock can pose a huge threat to the cavalry.”
"Fifth, you've really made a great contribution this time!”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and patted Zhu Rong's shoulder.
However, Zhu Rong quickly poured cold water on Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Although flintlocks are good, the manufacturing process is many times more complicated than handguns. It's almost impossible to mass produce them in a short period of time.”
"The army is in a hurry to go north. It's almost impossible to equip a large number of flintlocks for this northern expedition.”
"Fifth brother, you're still young and impetuous. Your state of mind isn't stable enough.”
Zhu Yuanzhang clasped his hands behind his back and said lightly,""If the northern expedition this time doesn't work, then next time. We have plenty of time to fight against the expansion.”
"With the flintlock gun you made, the next time we go north, the Ming soldiers will definitely go deep into the grasslands and completely destroy the Northern Yuan court.”
"Imperial Father is right, razing Mobei and bringing it into Great Ming's territory. The territory of the former strong neighbor will soon become a horse farm for the Han family's sons.”
Zhu Biao's eyes shone brightly.
He looked at Old Zhu and Big Brother Zhu Biao with their heads held high and their chests puffed out.
For some reason, even Zhu Rong felt his blood boil.
