In the shooting range of the Equipment Division of the Ministry of Works.
At this moment!
Silence!
It was so silent that one could hear a pin drop!
Zhu Yuanzhang and his subordinates, Xu Da, Tang He, Chang Yuchun, Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen, and the others were all stunned and shocked!
It was as if he had seen something unbelievable!
Que Shi!
They really saw something that they could not believe!
Musket!
Everyone present knew him very well.
However!
The handgun in Zhu Xiong's hand was completely beyond their imagination!
Penetrating through the iron sheet from 200 meters away!
This!
How powerful was it!
The shooting range was twice as long as the previous handgun, and the penetrating power was even better!
Furthermore!
It was even smaller, lighter, and could be operated by one person!
This was definitely an epoch-making improvement!
If the soldiers of the Wu army could be equipped with such firearms, their combat strength would definitely increase greatly!
At that time!
Who else could do it?
Thinking of this.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face flushed with excitement, and his body trembled slightly. Endless excitement surged in his heart, and his eyes were filled with deep love for Zhu Rong!
"Hahaha! Hahaha!"
"Good! Good! Good!"
"He's really our good son!"
"This flintlock is amazing!"
"If our soldiers were equipped with flintlocks like this, who else in the world would be a match for them?!”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed out loud in excitement. He walked forward and snatched the flintlock gun from Zhu Rong's hand, fondling it lovingly.
His eyes were filled with ambition!
With this flintlock gun, he would definitely be able to speed up his sweep of the world and overthrow Bao Yuan!
"Oh my god!"
"This little thing can penetrate iron from two hundred meters away. It's too f * cking awesome!”
"Invincible!"
"What is the Third Prince's brain made of?？”
"Please accept my knees!"
Xu Da, Tang He, Chang Yuchun, and the others all surrounded Zhu Yuanzhang and looked at the flintlock curiously and excitedly, exclaiming in surprise.
There was no doubt in his words, only deep admiration!
Xu Miaoyun could not help but raise her head when she heard the praises of her uncles and civil and military officials. She was like a proud peacock!
Humph!
Why would you doubt it?
You must be dumbfounded now. Brother Zhu Gang is the best!
"Third Bro, you're simply too godly!"
"After your modification, it's as if you've changed all the weapons!”
"What's wrong with your brain?"
"He's simply too monstrous!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited that he looked like a child in his thirties. He felt how lucky he was to have such a monstrous son!
Zhu Xiong shook his head and smiled.
Ha!
Wasn't this just a change of weapon?
Muskets were just the product of the first generation of firearms. How could they compare to flintlocks?
Ever since this kind of gun was invented, it had been popular for hundreds of years!
"Son-in-law, your flintlock doesn't have a matchlock. What's the principle behind it? How did you launch it?"
Xu Da finally took the flintlock from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Under observation.
When he realized that there was no fire rope for ordinary firearms, he was very curious and impressed!
He even changed the way he addressed Zhu Rong. This meant that Xu Da had completely accepted Zhu Rong as his son-in-law.
"After my research, I discovered that the muskets that were fired with a musket were very complicated and cumbersome. They were also very easily affected by the weather.”
"During a war, once it is rainy, the fire rope will be damp or wet by the rain, and it will be useless.”
" Therefore, they used flint to replace the fire rope. When the trigger was pulled, the firing pin would hit the flint and ignite the gunpowder, instantly firing the bullet.”
"This way, we won't be affected by the weather at all.”
"And its power is even stronger!”
Zhu Rong took the flintlock from Xu Da's hand and pointed at the parts on it, explaining the principle of the flintlock to everyone.
"I see!"
"Using flint to replace fire rope, your brain is really amazing!”
When Xu Da heard this, he was instantly enlightened. This idea was truly unconstrained and unconstrained. Ordinary people definitely wouldn't be able to think of it.
"Amazing!"
"Truly intelligent!"
"I'm envious! If only I was half as smart as His Royal Highness!”
"What are you thinking!"
"I'm not greedy. I'm satisfied as long as I'm 30% as smart as the third prince!”
All the generals chimed in, full of admiration for Zhu Rong, but also deep envy.
They were both humans!
Why was the difference so huge?？
The heavens were too unfair!
Not only did it give him an innate strength comparable to the ancient overlord, but it also gave him an intelligent brain that was above mortals!
Comparing people was really infuriating!
"Third brother, the modification of this flintlock is very successful. How is the production?”
Zhu Yuanzhang gradually calmed his excitement and asked the question he was most concerned about.
If it could not be mass-produced, no matter how powerful it was, it would be useless!
"The production process of flintlocks is still quite troublesome.”
"Although it looks light and small, its structure is much more complicated than the previous handguns. According to the production capacity of our Wu Mansion, we can probably produce about 500 handguns a month.”
Zhu Xiong pondered for a moment and gave a conservative number.
"Five hundred?"
"Not bad!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with this quantity. It was even higher than the previous production of firearms.
"Third Bro, you'll have to work hard for a while. You'll be the Armament Division's commander.”
"You were the one who made the flintlock. No one is more familiar with it than you!”
"You can be in charge of production. We'll provide backup support for you!”
Zhu Yuanzhang directly handed over the production of flintlocks to Zhu Rong.
Firstly, the flintlock gun was invented by Zhu Rong, so it was much faster with him in charge of manufacturing it.
Secondly, such a powerful firearm must be in his own hands. Other people would be responsible for it. Zhu Yuanzhang was not at ease, so he could only hand it over to his son.
"Alright then!"
"Sigh, I was born to work hard!"
Zhu Rong made a gesture of a little bear spreading its hands. His expression was a little funny, making Zhu Yuanzhang laugh and feel helpless.
"You brat!"
When the generals heard that Zhu Xiong was appointed as the commander of the Armament Division, their eyes lit up and they looked at Zhu Xiong like ferocious wolves.
Xu Da attacked first.
"Umm, son-in-law!"
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's go to my house for a drink later?”
Zhu Xi was speechless.
Didn't I just meet Miao Yun at your house yesterday?
"Nephew, your Uncle Chang has a jar of old wine. The taste is superb!”
"Your father begged me many times, but I didn't give him any!”
"How is it?"
"Let's go for a drink or two when you're free!"
Chang Yuchun put his arm around Zhu Rong's shoulder and said amiably.
"Nephew, listen to his bragging. His wine isn't good, but your Uncle Tang's wine is!”
"And your aunt's cooking skills are not inferior to your mother's!”
Tang He also came to Zhu Rong's side and extended an invitation.
"Cousin, come to my house as a guest!"
"Your Highness, come to my house! Go to my house!"
"Your Highness, I think it's better if I go to my house!”
"Bullshit! What's so good about your house? It's so broken!”
"Get lost! Your house is broken! I think you're asking for a beating!"
"Motherf * cker! Who are you calling asking for a beating! I think you're looking for a beating!"
"Let's fight! Do you think I'm afraid of you?!"
As the commander of the Armament Division and the inventor of the flintlock gun, Zhu Rong was the only one who could do it.
After witnessing the power of the flintlock, how could these generals resist?
All of them had turned into Zhu Xiong's crazed bootlickers!
Some people even started fighting!
When Zhu Xiong saw this scene, he was dumbfounded!
Good fellow!
Aren't you all good brothers who have gone through life and death?
They started fighting just like that?
They were really brothers on the surface!
