"Men, give me a seat!"
Inside the Palace of Heavenly Purity
Chong Zhen sized up Sun Heding with a warm expression.
The young man couldn't help but reveal a trace of nervousness and cold sweat on his face. In the end, he said in a trembling voice,"Your Majesty, I dare not sit down. If Your Majesty has any instructions, please speak.”
"Two things!" Chong Zhen went straight to the point. I want to vindicate your father, Sun Yuan Hua. I want to appoint you as the commander of the War Bureau and take charge of all firearms research and production matters!”
"This?"
Sun Heding was dumbfounded on the spot.
He never expected happiness to come so suddenly.
His father, Sun Yuan Hua, was a famous western firearms expert. He was implicated and killed in the traitor Kong Youde's rebellion. The Kong family had been living a miserable life over the years.
Now, not only did Chongzhen want to redeem his father, but he also wanted to put him in an important position and let him take charge of the research and development of the entire War Bureau?
This was too unbelievable!
"Your Majesty, are you joking?" "Why are you doing this?" Sun Heding asked carefully.”
"Because my Ming Dynasty needs firearms. In the future, firearms will replace cold weapons and become the most important strength of a country!”"I just want to know, are you willing to help me?" Chong Zhen said seriously.”
"Ken! Of course I'm willing!"
"Your Majesty, you're right. Firearms will eventually replace cold weapons. This is also the lifelong wish of this commoner and my father!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not abandoning me. I am willing to die for Your Majesty!”
Sun Heding knelt on the ground in excitement, his entire body trembling.
He had inherited his father's abilities but had nowhere to put them to use. Now that the opportunity had finally arrived, he was as excited as if he had met a talent. He had long thrown everything to the back of his mind.
"Good!" Chongzhen laughed in satisfaction." Please rise, my dear minister. With your help, I have nothing to worry about!"”
"Your Majesty!" "What you used just now should be a type of firearm, right?" Sun Heding asked with a burning gaze. Can I borrow it to take a look?"
"No!" " This is a precious treasure gifted by an immortal," Chong Zhen said solemnly." It's a product of more than three hundred years later. It won't do you any good to see it now!"”
Ji Han had specifically instructed her about this!
Right now, the foundation of firearms in the Ming Dynasty was not good enough, so they could not spoil things by pulling up seedlings!
If Sun Heding saw this Desert Eagle, he would definitely be bewitched. It was just like a primary school student suddenly giving him a university advanced math question. His entire mind would be dumbfounded!
Therefore, this thing could only be used for Chongzhen's protection!
" A product from three hundred years later?"
"A gift from an immortal?"
Sun Heding was a little dumbfounded, and his brain was not quite working.
However, he did not doubt these words because Chongzhen would not lie to him, nor would he bother to lie to him.
Moreover, this thing really didn't seem like something from this era.
It had such a strange shape, and it was so powerful. Moreover, it could be continuously fired. This was simply the king of firearms.
"The immortal once said that if you work hard to study it, my Great Ming will have such a firearm sooner or later!”"Minister Sun, I'm looking forward to it!" Chong Zhen comforted.”
"Immortal, Immortal mentioned me?" Sun Heding was dumbstruck on the spot.
The people of this era still believed in the theory of gods and ghosts.
Sun Heding couldn't help but tremble with excitement at the thought of the Immortal mentioning him.""Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will not fail my mission!”
"Good!" "How much ability did you inherit from your father?" Chong Zhen asked with satisfaction.”
"More than eighty percent!" Sun Heding replied confidently," My father likes to study cannons, and I like to study handguns. It can be said that they each have their own merits. However, I can do what my father can do!”
"This is the result of my latest research. Please read it, Your Majesty!”
As he spoke, Sun Heding took out a notebook!
It was a yellowed book with a large number of diagrams and data of cannons and firearms recorded on it!
"Your Majesty, the best firearms in the world are the Europeans. They are already using flintlocks!”" And we are still using old muskets and Lumi handguns," Sun Heding explained." We have long fallen behind Europe in this aspect!”
"However, I have already researched and replicated this flintlock. Moreover, my new flintlock is not inferior to the flintlocks produced by the Portugal in the Bugarao Cannon Casting Factory!”
Chong Zhen looked through the notebook seriously and smiled in satisfaction!
Sun Heding was worthy of being a first-class firearms expert. If Bi Maokang was transferred to Beiping, then the firearms research and development level of the War Bureau would be greatly improved and would not be inferior to foreigners.
Moreover, Chongzhen still had a lot of knowledge taught by the immortal master in his mind!
"This flintlock is indeed not bad, but reloading it is still too troublesome!”" Master Immortal once said that if you want to solve this problem, you can use cardboard bullets," Chongzhen pointed out." You can try to develop it after you take control of the War Bureau!”
"Paper bullets?"
Sun Heding's breathing immediately quickened.
His mind was immediately opened. Years of experience in firearm research and development made him think of the benefits of these cardboard bullets.
Moreover, this research and development did not seem to be difficult!
Once it was developed, it would definitely greatly increase the firing speed of the flintlock.
"Your Majesty, what else did the immortal master say?”Sun Heding asked excitedly.
"He talked about the development of firearms, such as the development of grenades, the development of artillery shells, the ratio of gunpowder, the production and preservation of gunpowder, and so on!”
"Come, come, come. Sit down and talk. I'll give you a lesson!”
"This knowledge is knowledge from thousands of years ago. If it weren't for the immortal master's teaching, it would be impossible for me to know!”
"As the person-in-charge of my War Bureau, you must be influenced by the future firearms. You don't know that Master Immortal has a terrifying firearm that can fire dozens of bullets at once!”
Chong Zhen proudly showed off, which shocked Sun Heding.
Then, the two of them took notes as they talked. Chong Zhen continued to pass on the knowledge he had obtained from Ji Han to Sun Heding, and every word he said made him tremble with excitement.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
"These ideas are too wonderful!"
"I can't wait to start research and development immediately!”
