Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 130 Everyone should learn from Governor Lind

Perceptive people have already noticed the potential value of the musket, but most of the nobles in the royal capital are still rather disdainful. After all, this is only the most basic style of musket, and is a relatively common one among Doug's various muskets. It's just that its stability is much better than those muskets that Doug made by hand.

Nora clapped her hands, and a row of soldiers immediately came to the shooting platform nervously, holding their muskets and aiming forward.

But the difference is that these soldiers are a little too numerous, and there are a steady stream of soldiers following them.

And many new targets were immediately set up not far away, and those targets were covered with armor.

"These are the people of the capital. I hired them with money. They only received basic training for about a week."

After finishing speaking, Nora bowed to Lilith, who nodded and said, "Let's get started."

"boom!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After a burst of smoke, some of the targets not far away were broken and fell to the ground, the armor on some targets was blown off, and there were many bullet marks on the armor of the targets that were still in place.

The quality of this batch of armor was not good, but in fact most soldiers did not even have such armor.

"No, nothing more than that."

The old party noble who had come forward earlier still said stubbornly: "It's just as good as a magic shot by my professional."

"Ah."

Nora just snorted coldly, then raised the musket in her hand lightly and aimed it at the noble.

The guards around Nora also raised the muskets they carried with them and aimed them at the nobles.

Looking at the black muzzle of the musket, the noble's legs somehow went weak and he felt an inexplicable fear in his heart. In fact, he had just witnessed the power of the musket.

This is obviously a means for Her Majesty the Queen to win over the nobles in the southwestern border. If the nobles in the two southwestern borders really support the Queen, will the old party nobles have any good results?

So no matter what, the old party must devalue these muskets. It would be best if these muskets were worthless and had no impact on the war in the southwest.

"boom!"

Before anyone could react, Nora pointed her gun at the old party noble and snorted lightly. The old party noble collapsed to the ground in public, and panickedly covered his lower body with his robe.

Although he was a professional, he was uneducated and basically no different from an ordinary person. He also had no confidence that he could block the bullet at such a close distance.

"Nora Leus, are you going to attack the nobles in public?"

The noble who collapsed on the ground cursed while getting up with the help of other nobles beside him.

"Oh? But I didn't shoot just now."

Nora took back the musket, and the guards around him also put down their muskets.

"I just wanted to tease you, Your Excellency."

After saying that, Nora showed a smile that made people feel like spring breeze. He was originally a handsome man, and coupled with his deliberate flattery, many noble girls held their breath.

"Since you think this musket is nothing big, why are you afraid?"

The old party nobleman was ashamed and angry, and left surrounded by his guards.

Lilith did not stop him. Instead, she covered her nose and said, "Everyone, let's go to another place to discuss this."

"Prime Minister Nora, you're taking it a bit too far."

"I am sorry, Your Majesty."

Nora bowed, looking guilty, but Lilith didn't even give her a symbolic punishment. Everyone knew that this was at least condoned by Her Majesty the Queen.

However, when they saw that the two Dukes, Judith and Scott, were surrounding Nora and asking about the purchasing channels and production methods of the muskets, many nobles who had just been close to the Old Party quietly drew a line between themselves and the Old Party.

But the old party still had some disdain for muskets. Having not experienced war for a long time, they still believed that professionals were everything on the battlefield.

Especially since the Kingdom of Anjou has been systematically training, recruiting and training professionals to form a pure professional force.

This greatly encouraged the majority of nobles who liked to talk about military affairs on paper. They believed that the kingdom should not make any reforms now, which was causing chaos. Instead, they should learn from the Kingdom of Anjou, gather all professionals together, and completely abandon the old tactics that the Lars family had set, which was about professionals and ordinary soldiers cooperating with each other.

But these people did not understand why the Kingdom of Anjou was able to reorganize professionals. While the new and old parties of the Kingdom of Capet were arguing over something that might not exist at all, the new king of Anjou had already completed the consolidation of power.

The power of Lilith and Nora combined may not be as great as that of the king.

Under such circumstances, who will command these professionals from different places? Who will formulate the rules? Who will pay the military salaries?

Judith and Scott, who knew this well, were very excited after learning the details of the musket.

Although the muskets were of little help in resisting the attacks of professionals, they allowed ordinary people to no longer have no chance of resistance in front of the professional army. They could also directly widen the gap between ordinary soldiers, so that the two southwestern regions no longer had to passively take the beating.

"But if these muskets were obtained by the Kingdom of Anjou..."

After the joy, Judith calmed down. These muskets might become even more terrifying if combined with the opponent's professional troops.

"no need to worry."

Nora handed the musket in her hand to the guard, and then took a longer musket from the guard.

"Linde, the governor of the Gray Collar of the North, said that if we can find out the truth about the assassination of the late king, His Majesty Crane, and the mastermind behind it, he will provide more advanced muskets, such as this one."

Nora took aim skillfully and pulled the trigger, and the target that was originally standing upright in armor not far away was blown away.

"With the assistance of this governor, our muskets will always be ahead of the Kingdom of Anjou."

In fact, Nora was not sure, but he had to say it.

When she heard that it was her distant cousin who tinkered with it, Judith believed it a little more. Moreover, from the few words in Caroline's letter, Judith also learned that the weapons of the Gray-Collar were very advanced. It was precisely with these weapons that they were able to compete with Doug, who had a larger land.

"This governor is truly loyal to his emperor and his country. We should all learn a lot from him."

Judith took the opportunity to praise this "family member".

"Yes."

Scott also said at the right time: "Governor Lind is still trying to find out the truth about the assassination of the late king. He is not only loyal to Her Majesty the Queen, but also loyal to this country."

Seeing Judith and Scott take the lead, other nobles in the two southwestern territories also began to praise Lind. In addition, Lind had said before that he would make whoever made the queen abdicate, for a time Lind became the aristocrat among the nobles. Everyone claimed that they wanted to learn from Governor Lind and work wholeheartedly for the kingdom.

No one noticed that although Lilith next to her had a smile on her face, her face was full of dark lines and veins were bulging on her hands, as if she was about to crush the scepter.

That's really loyal to the emperor and the country.

But Nora felt that the time was not right. In order to get these nobles in the royal capital to actually do their job and consolidate Lilith's position, Nora ordered someone to bring in a small cannon.

This is the real bombshell from Lind.

Seeing that there was something new, everyone gathered around Nora and continued to ask questions.

Lilith recognized this classic skin's cannon at first sight and even held her breath for a moment.

Is that time traveler really willing to spend so much money? Although Lilith, who got the formula for gunpowder, thought that she would be able to make it sooner or later, she didn't expect that the other party would actually pull out the finished cannon directly.

Nora did not give her passionate explanation as before, but instead pushed everyone aside and led them to a safe location. She also asked the guards to put up a protective shield, while she elegantly put on earplugs and fired the cannon herself.

"boom!"

This shot directly woke up all the nobles who were a little sleepy. Dust and debris were flying all over the parade ground, and some stones even flew directly onto the protective shield that had been set up in advance.

The only sound at the scene was Nora's deep and magnetic voice after she took off her earplugs: "This cannon can only be tested once, and then it will be scrapped. And the gray-collared Governor Lind said that whoever can find out the culprit behind the assassination will be given a complete version of the cannon."

"Oh, and the production method and purchase channels of artillery will also be made available to Her Majesty the Queen after they are found out."

Judith and Scott swallowed their saliva, their eyes shining, while some of the royal capital nobles subconsciously took a step back and quietly distanced themselves from some of the old party nobles.
