Zhu Wei didn't feel anything, but Zhu Gaochi touched the firecrackers on the table and said, "Uncle Songhuang, if my nephew is not mistaken, these are all firecrackers, right? This is a bird blunderbuss, a three-flower blunderbuss..."

When talking about the other table, Zhu Gaochi frowned, and said: "As for this one, it looks like a bird's gun, but the barrel of the bird's gun is not that thick, and this length..."

"Hahaha, this is called a smoothbore gun, and it is remade from a bird gun!"

Zhu Song laughed, and just when he was about to say something more, the soldier from before ran back with two muskets.

Zhu Song thought about it, and said: "The difference between these is more troublesome to explain, how about this, let these soldiers demonstrate it to you!"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, Zhu Song recruited three soldiers from among the soldiers, and handed over the three muskets that had just arrived to their hands. (To be continued.)

Chapter 271 Zhu Song's Surprise

"preparation!"

The three soldiers started to move, and their movements could be described as uniform. With a sound of 'wow', the musket was raised horizontally.

Seeing the three soldiers' standard movements and their slightly arched bodies, Zhu Song couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

Speaking of his previous life, it is not surprising that the soldiers were able to do this. After all, in his previous life, Huaxia had very strong militarized management.

But now it is not easy. Although the soldiers of Ming Dynasty are brave and good at fighting, and have strict military discipline, it is somewhat difficult to achieve such a unified movement.

It seems that the person who trained these soldiers was also an expert, Zhu Song was very curious about this person.

The old man who spoke before squinted his eyes to look at the target that was nearly a hundred feet away, and suddenly said: "Fire!"

bang bang bang...

The moment the old man's voice fell to the ground, a sound like stir-frying beans sounded.

The sound was so loud that it shook the void, and there was still a wisp of gunpowder smoke above the three of them, and the strong smell of gunpowder permeated the open space.

The distance of more than 100 feet is no longer the distance that the firecrackers could reach. Even the Mu family in Yunnan, which was famous for its firearms in the Ming Dynasty, did not have such ultra-long-range lethal firecrackers.

Furthermore, the effective range of the firecrackers cast by the Ming Dynasty Manufacturing Bureau is only about forty feet. Beyond this distance, let alone whether there is any accuracy, the power alone will be reduced without limit.

"Gunpowder loaded!"

After the first design was completed, the old man did not let the three soldiers take a breather, but roared again.

The three soldiers began to load gunpowder without hesitation. What surprised Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Wei was that the method of loading gunpowder for this smoothbore gun was completely different from ordinary bird guns and three-eyed guns.

Seeing these three soldiers move their hands quickly, they took out a small thing like a wax pellet from a small bag at their waist, and stuffed it directly into the barrel of the smoothbore gun from the front end.

"This, is there something wrong?"

Zhu Wei, who had been indoctrinated with gunpowder knowledge by his son for two months, was at a loss when he saw this scene.

Usually, the ammunition of the gunpowder is poured in from the tube, which is good. Why did they just take out the gadget and fill it in, so that if the gunpowder is not pressed down, can the projectile be ejected?

Also puzzled is Zhu Zhanji's own father, Zhu Gaochi.

But before they could ask a question, the three soldiers pulled out a three-foot-long pipe from their trouser legs, and the top of the pipe was blocked by something like a plug.

After stuffing the wax pill into the muzzle of the smoothbore gun, the three soldiers directly stuffed the tube into the muzzle, pushed it in suddenly, and pulled the tube out immediately.

Oh!

It was not until this moment that everyone had reacted.

Anyone who is familiar with firecrackers knows that the current advantages and disadvantages of firecrackers are very obvious.

The advantage, of course, is that it is much more powerful than those crossbows and bows, but its disadvantage is well-known, because its loading speed is very cumbersome or even slow.

And the loading of the ammunition for the rifle now is so convenient and fast, which surprised everyone present.

"Fire!" the old man yelled again.

bang bang bang...

Another roar resounded through the sky.

The soldiers repeated the same action again.

After the three rounds of shooting, except for everyone in the firearms battalion and Zhu Song who knew the result long ago, the rest of the people were all shocked.

"Go some of you, and bring back the target in front of me." Zhu Song was very satisfied with the expressions of the crowd, and he ordered the soldiers to move the target.

After about a cup of tea, a dozen or so people hurried back carrying a total of three targets as tall as a person.

I think so, with a distance of more than 100 shots, if there is no scope, it may be difficult to hit a tiny target. It is as tall as a person, and there is still a possibility of hitting it.

Put the three targets side by side on the ground, and everyone looked sideways, but they saw that there were three holes on each target. Although they didn't make many rings, it was not easy to hit them.

The target was pierced through, and the front and back were transparent, and it seemed to be quite powerful.

"Uncle Songhuang, this, is this what was hit by the musket just now?" Zhu Gaochi looked at the target on the ground in disbelief, then turned his head to look more than 100 feet away, rubbing his eyes desperately.

"Why, you saw it all just now, don't you believe your eyes?" Zhu Song glanced at Zhu Gaochi with a half-smile, and said, "Why don't you let those soldiers teach you and try it yourself? "

Zhu Gaochi shook his head hastily, jokingly, if he had to do everything by himself, what sense of superiority do these superiors have?

"Gao Chi, if you don't try, I'll do it!" Zhu Wei accepted the matter honestly and unceremoniously.

"Lord He, I'll leave it to you." Zhu Song nodded and threw Zhu Song to the old man.

The old man responded, and led the curious Zhu Wei to the other side of the test site.

"Uncle Songhuang, if these smoothbore guns are equipped in our Ming army, then who else will be our opponent?" After the initial surprise, Zhu Gaochi thought of applying these smoothbore guns to Daming's army among.

"Okay, there are still a lot of things in the firearms camp. Uncle will take you around the camp first."

Zhu Song didn't answer Zhu Gaochi's words, but directly led Zhu Gaochi and the others towards the other companies of the Firearms Battalion.

……

After sending off Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Wei who looked excited, the time has come to Shenshi.

Zhu Song was sitting in the hall of the dispatching company, standing in front of him was a strong young man with a Chinese character face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"Your name is Zhang Guodong?" Zhu Song said after pondering for a while.

"Returning to Your Highness, the last general is Zhang Guodong, a hundred households of the East City Qianhu Division in Jinyiwei!" The young man straightened his body, and his voice was loud, "By the order of the commander of the Jinyiwei Capital, Lord Ji, come to the firearms battalion to guard the hundred households!"

Zhu Song nodded slightly, and said: "The ten soldiers who were in the test company's test field in the afternoon, my king, were the soldiers under your command?"

"Yes!" Zhang Guodong nodded seriously.
