When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!

Chapter 170 Krupp and Hanyang

Follow Lao Yang to an open space.

Several cannons were neatly placed there.

Zhu Ming couldn't help but ask: "Is this the good thing you mentioned?"

Old Yang smiled softly: "It's one of them!"

Looking at Yang Guang with confusion, Zhu Ming focused his attention on the cannon, which was indeed a little different in appearance from the previous cannon.

"Why don't you tell me what the difference is? You know I probably haven't come into contact with this stuff as much as you have."

Yang Guang smiled proudly: "Xiao Yao, show our Potato Prince our Great Sui No. 1 Cannon!"

Yao Junsu waved flags and more than a dozen artillerymen began to load shells.

"boom!"

"boom!"

There were several loud noises, and Yang Guang looked at Zhu Ming with pride: "Did you find anything?"

Zhu Ming frowned: "Is there any difference? It feels more powerful."

Old Yang was so upset that he looked at Zhu Ming with disdain: "Didn't you notice that I just said I was reloading?"

Zhu Ming asked curiously, "It's normal, right? Zhu Di also has some cannons that are loaded from the back."

Old Yang was speechless, thinking that it made sense, and I didn't know how to explain it: "Have you noticed that the firing rate is much better than those cannons of Zhu Di?"

Recalling the previous firing rate, Zhu Ming nodded: "It seems to be a lot faster."

Old Yang said speechlessly: "You must have heard of muzzle-loading guns and breech-loading guns."

Zhu Ming nodded: "I've only heard of it. If you want to ask specifically, I only know that one loads bullets in the front and the other loads bullets in the back, and there are some differences in the breech. I don't know the rest.

The most familiar ones are mortars and Italian cannons!"

Yang Guang smiled bitterly: "In ancient times, people played the lute to cows, and now they talk about cannons to pigs. These are the newly produced breech-loading cannons. They are more powerful than the previous cannons, especially the firing rate, which is more than doubled!"

A few minutes later.

Zhu Ming returned to Lao Yang.

The information has been searched in the mobile phone.

"Really? Are you sure these are not the breech-loading cannons like Zhu Di's? If you want to produce such cannons, can the smelting technology of the Sui Dynasty keep up?"

Old Yang chuckled and said, "We couldn't keep up before, but now we have the talents you sent us. I originally wanted to improve the cannon, but I didn't expect that some of them saw our cannon and proposed a new plan to redesign a cannon. They have all the technology, so we can make whatever we need.

In order to produce this cannon, many factories were built, including steel mills, mining plants, etc.

If it weren't for the pile of stuff you threw over from Japan, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to fix it until now.

Even so, a lot of money and food were spent, and the loss in labor alone was not small.

Finally, these cannons were made. They were said to be modeled after Krupp's, but they were better than Krupp's. So I named them Krupp Cannons!"

Zhu Ming was full of black lines on his forehead: "This baron is not the title you understand. Krupp is just a name. To be honest, your title of Krupp Marquis is somewhat in line with the national conditions of the Sui Dynasty. Any soldier knows that a marquis is higher than a baron. What's the next step? Is it to make a Krupp cannon?"

Old Yang looked surprised: "Yes, the Krupp cannon is being designed!"

Zhu Ming couldn't help but say, "Don't even mention Krupp. Even if you get a Krupp man, it's enough in this era. Now this Krupp man is enough for you to sweep the world."

Yang Guang shook his head: "I know this very well, even the cannons from Zhu Di are enough for this era.

In fact, I set my sights on the Qing Dynasty.

Sooner or later, we will meet the Qing Dynasty.

According to you, in the late Qing Dynasty, other countries were very strong, and the current coalition forces are no match for them. I have to prepare in advance."

Zhu Ming was stunned and said admiringly: "Old Yang, I didn't expect you to have such vision!"

Yang Guang smiled awkwardly: "This is not my idea, it was thought up by Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang thought that it would be embarrassing if he couldn't defeat the Qing Dynasty in the future. Besides, I also want to establish several dynasties for my grandsons. I can't have three grandsons in one dynasty in the future. It's easy to cause trouble!"

Zhu Ming was shocked: "What a good idea! You are going to divide up the Qing Dynasty. There are not many emperors in the Qing Dynasty, probably not enough for you to divide up."

Yang Guang smiled and said, "We still have the Yuan Dynasty, plus the incompetent rulers of each dynasty, so we can always make arrangements."

Zhu Ming couldn't help but say, "Like the Han, Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties, there were many emperors, and many of them were incompetent. Just planning your own dynasty will probably take some time. But you and Lao Ying are more fortunate, and you can take a position in advance. It must be said that dying in the second generation also has its advantages."

Old Yang smiled softly: "I used to think that dying in the second generation was really shameful, but after seeing Zhu Qizhen, I suddenly realized that it is not unacceptable. At least the Sui Dynasty does not have such deadly descendants."

Zhu Ming was embarrassed to say that guarding Old Yang, I guess in the eyes of Emperor Wen of Sui, you are that kind of deadly descendant.

When he passed away, he left you a rich fortune. It's not an exaggeration to say that you were the richest second generation of the royal family. But in the end, you were left with nothing.

As long as you are a king who can defend the city, your country will not be destroyed.

I'm not afraid of you squandering your money, I'm just afraid of you starting a business!

Yang Guang waved his hand.

The artillerymen pulled the cannon away.

Several soldiers ran to a few dozen meters away and placed targets one by one.

Zhu Ming asked doubtfully, "You're not saying that the next good thing is a gun, are you?"

Old Yang nodded: "Yes, it is a musket, but my gun is much stronger than the musket of the Ming Dynasty. Whether it is power, range or speed, it is much stronger than the musket of the Ming Dynasty!"

What man doesn't love guns?

Zhu Ming rubbed his hands together: "Come on, let me try it. I'm tired of playing with Zhu Di's muskets!"

"Xiao Yao, bring us our Sui Luoyang-made ones, so that our potato prince can have a good time!"

Looking at the spear that Yao Junsu took.

Zhu Ming felt that it looked familiar, as he had often seen it on TV.

He asked doubtfully, "Isn't this a replica of the Hanyang model?"

Old Yang shook his head. "What do you mean by imitation? According to what you said, my Luoyang-made gun was independently developed by the Great Sui Dynasty. However, some of the experts you sent here specialize in making weapons and think that this gun is more suitable for the Great Sui Dynasty. They referred to your Hanyang-made gun. So why is this gun more suitable for the Great Sui Dynasty? Does it have any special meaning?"

Zhu Ming touched the Luoyang-made rifle in his hand and felt the power of his blood burst out: "Back then, we relied on it to fight the Japanese invaders. Unfortunately, we are short of a few Japanese invaders at this time."

Old Yang raised his eyebrows and said, "This is easy. Come on, bring some devils over here!"

Zhu Ming shook his head: "Forget it, I'll just go shooting. When I can go to the anti-Japanese battlefield one day, I'll show my power!"

Holding a Luoyang-made one.

Zhu Ming aimed at a target in the distance and fired ten shots. Except for the first shot which required some adjustment, the others all hit ten rings.

Yang Guang said appreciatively: "Not bad, if he were in the Sui Dynasty, he would definitely be able to join the Divine Spear Battalion."

Zhu Ming said confidently: "Let's not talk about other things. Just on Zhu Di's side, I have broken dozens of targets. If I can't hit the target again, I might as well find a piece of tofu and hit myself to death."

After trying a few shots, I found that it was indeed much stronger than the Ming Dynasty's muskets.

Zhu Ming was not sure whether it could catch up with the real Hanyang model.

It is definitely not as good as the Hanyang-made ones on TV.

"How is the current production of your Krupp cannon and Luoyang-made cannon?"

Old Yang said, "The current production is not good enough. The Great Sui only produces 3,000 cannons per month, and the cannons are even lower, less than ten per month. This is still with the machines you brought. Once the machines you brought are damaged, not to mention that production will not be possible, but the qualified rate will definitely be pitifully low. It would be good if we can guarantee one in ten. It's still because the technology is not good enough and the basic industry does not meet the standards."

“It’s still a little difficult to equip the entire army.”

Yang Guang said: "Old Zhu and Zhu Di have better technology than the Sui Dynasty. It is estimated that their arsenal will be completed soon, and the output will be considerable by then."

Zhu Ming nodded: "You guys work harder, then we will be a great power, and if there is another Opium War, John Bull will become a dead bull!"
