Duolun’s hand movements paused, his brows were furrowed, and his expression was a little nervous.
"I will investigate this matter. If this princess is really Princess Fu'an, she has ruined my good deeds three times and four times. Naturally, I will not let it go."
King Shen thought of the reports he had received, his eyes flashed fiercely, his big hands drilled into his fists, and then he seemed to remember something, "Seeing that the Western Region is about to go to war with Southern Xinjiang, this weapon is naturally indispensable. Yes, you have to work hard these days to let me earn more money, otherwise I will have nothing to spend with the princess."
Duolun nodded, and in the carriage filled with that masculine aura, he became distracted again and lay limply in the arms of King Shen.
After Yu Qingzhi returned to the palace, she was called to the Ministry of War by Baili Xingran. The mysterious look made Yu Qingzhi very puzzled.
"What's wrong? But what went wrong with the weapons we asked them to make before?"
She looked at the serious expressions of the people in front of her, and subconsciously thought that there was something wrong with the matter that had been handed over to the Ministry of War.
"Princess, let's take a look at this first."
The Minister of War said in a low voice, then raised his hand, and soon someone came over with a tray.
Yu Qingzhi blinked in confusion, and then opened the red cloth covering the tray. Looking at the things that were exactly the same as her drawings, a bright light flashed in her eyes, "Success?"
Seeing her smile, everyone seemed to be exaggerated and smiled one after another.
"I finally lived up to the princess's expectations and finally made what you wanted before the army set off."
The Secretary of the Ministry of War is a person who doesn't like to talk or laugh. He usually treats everyone he meets as if he is owed millions of taels of silver. But at this moment, a smile breaks out on his face, and his eyes are full of joy. Pride and pride.
"The Red Gate Cannon has also been built?!"
Yu Qingzhi was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it. She thought that according to the ancient people's thinking, it would take at least several years to create something. She didn't expect that they were so smart. In just half a year, they made it. Things have been developed, it is really not easy!
"It's sitting in the next room. If the princess wants to try it, let's go out of the city to avoid making too much noise and causing panic among the people."
The Minister of War responded with a smile and took Yu Qingzhi and others to the next door.
Seeing the cannon, Yu Qingzhi couldn't hold back her excitement.
"Ali, Sixth Brother, let's go try it?" She rubbed her hands excitedly, wanting to see the power of firecrackers and cannons.
"Okay." It was also the first time for Feng Yanli to see such a novel weapon. It was impossible to say that he was not curious.
Baili Xingran had nothing to say. He loved weapons very much. Now that he had finally obtained a novel weapon, he would not let go of such a good opportunity.
As they spoke, the group of people rode a carriage to the outside of the city. In order to prevent others from seeing their secret weapon, they chose a less crowded road when leaving the city.
"Just right here."
Looking at the surrounding mountains, Yu Qingzhi gave instructions to the Minister of War.
The Minister of War responded and quickly ordered people to load the cannon with ammunition and then light it.
"Boom——"
"Pfft——"
With the sound of ammunition being fired, there was an explosion that resounded throughout the valley, and a huge crater was instantly created in the mountain that was hit by the shell.
Yu Qingzhi looked at the pit and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, although it's not that interesting, it's enough to capture the city gate."
She said as she took the firegun in her hand, pointed it at the bird that was sitting on the tree, looked at the crosshair on the firegun, took aim, and then pulled the trigger.
There was another crisp sound, and the next moment I saw the bird falling from the branch.
"Yue'er, let Sixth Brother try it too!"
Baili Xingran couldn't control his eagerness to try, so he stepped forward to urge Yu Qingzhi.
Seeing how excited he was, Yu Qingzhi quickly handed over the gun.
Baili Xingran imitated Yu Qingzhi and aimed at the tree. After the shot, except for the crisp sound that was still echoing, there was no change in the tree.
"Forehead……"
He glanced at the gun in his hand in embarrassment and surprise, and blinked in confusion.
"You have to aim at the target first,"Of course it's impossible to hit accurately. "
Yu Qingzhi didn't laugh at Baili Xingran. After all, everyone made a mistake the first time they played. If she hadn't been lucky enough to be exposed to these things in the military academy in her previous life, she wouldn't have been able to have such good accuracy right from the start.
After listening to Yu Qingzhi’s explanation, Baili Xingran tried again. Following the key points taught by his sister, this time he hit the tree trunk accurately.
"Good stuff, really good stuff!"
Baili Xingran was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears.
Yu Qingzhi smiled and put the fire gun into Feng Yanli's hand again, and then looked at the Minister of War, "What is the furthest range of this fire gun? Maybe it can be used on a large scale on the battlefield?"
Since what she wants has been made, it naturally needs to be widely used. Isn’t it true that the craftsmen’s hard work for so long has been in vain.
"The fire gun is small in size and has a certain range. Currently, the farthest range can reach 150 meters. It can replace bows and arrows. If you want to increase the range, the size will be very large and the weight is naturally not light. In I’m afraid it will be inconvenient to carry on the battlefield.”
The Minister of War was afraid that Yu Qingzhi would be dissatisfied with the range, so he quickly stepped forward to explain.
One hundred and fifty meters, although this distance did make Yu Qingzhi not very satisfied, but when she heard that it could replace the bow and arrow, she didn't say anything.
"In this case, let's start mass production. All quantities must be registered and cannot be released to the market."
After Yu Qingzhi issued the order, she glanced at Feng Yanli behind her. After the first batch was built, someone came to tell me that the cannons could be transported to the military camp first. "
"Yes, I obey the order."
The minister of the Ministry of War received the order. Although he didn't understand why Yu Qingzhi wanted to seize a batch of muskets, he also knew how to be careful with his words and deeds, so he naturally wouldn't ask questions that shouldn't be asked.
Yu Qingzhi took away the only fire blunderbuss she had so far. Before leaving, she also took a box full of ammunition. Then she returned to the palace and presented the fire blunderbuss to Baili Ao like a treasure. Her behavior was Baili Xingran was greatly dissatisfied, but Feng Yanli didn't say anything.
Although he also wanted a gun, compared with trying to please his father-in-law, he could still bear the pain and give up. After all, he understood the meaning of what Yu Qingzhi said to the Minister of the Ministry of War before, and it was just a matter of waiting. These days, there is no rush.
No matter how dissatisfied Bai Li They all want to reward the entire treasury to Yu Qingzhi. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
