Zhu Yuanzhang can see my dreams

Chapter 241 New Weapon: Invincible Thunderbolt Whirlwind Snowflakes

"Prince-in-law, is it appropriate to put this thing in our county government office?"

Jiang Huan felt that this thing looked precious, and the crystals on it alone were enough to make others covet it.

"Too expensive."

"It's okay, it's just a novelty for a while. Maybe everyone will be able to have this thing in their homes after a while."

Wang Buli said nonchalantly that Lao Zhu was not conscious, but he could not be unconscious.

At this point in time, Europe has not come up with this thing. They are still surviving in the aftermath of the Black Death. In another ten years, they will have to encounter another big one!

"what?"

Jiang Huan, Zhong Niu and others were all shocked. This new thing looked very expensive at first glance.

The prince-in-law also said that every family could have this, which was probably an exaggeration.

While he was talking, the two wooden figures inside the self-ringing bell came out and began to rotate.

Nowadays, when the Ming Dynasty fights foreign wars, the main thing is to be safe, and then charge up the punch to kill them with one punch.

Zhong Niu and others gathered around, all surprised.

"Quick, go outside and look at the sundial."

"Hahaha."

"It's really the right time."

Wang Buli wondered if he could change it to a pointer, so that he could feel more familiar.

"oh oh."

"Good good."

"Ah, it's amazing!"

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Um." Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a while and stroked his beard: "It's possible. How does this count? I really don't understand. Find a chance to ask."

Zhu Biao was completely confused by Wang Buli's strange operation, especially when he said that every family would have this thing in the future.

In this way, the conditions for Kou to go and I to go can be truly realized!

Mountain sickness no longer hindered the expansion of the Central Plains soldiers.

Zhu Yuanzhang received a picture sent by the inspection school, which reproduced Wang Buli's changes to the chiming bell.

Zhu Yuanzhang took a picture of the memorial and showed it to his son. With Muying's experiment, his confidence in conquering the remnants of Tibet became greater.

"Hahaha."

"what?"

"Mu Ying took people to test mountain sickness according to my request. Wang Buli's method was effective. Only more than 200 of the 1,000 soldiers could not adapt. In the following days, some people became more serious, but more people were all sick. Hang in there."

Everyone nodded, as they would gain knowledge by following the Prince Consort.

Jiang Huan stared. He really didn't expect that there was such a mechanism.

The method proposed by Wang Buli is really effective. I wonder how long these remnants of Tibet can continue to dance?

"Brother Mu is really brave and resourceful."

"it is good."

After a while, everyone dispersed. Wang Buli was in a good mood and decided to be more diligent today, so he took his people out for a patrol.

"It's time to apply."

The value of that crystal alone exceeds one hundred guan.

Although the Jiangning County government officials' income has increased recently due to the increased number of people, it is not something they can afford.

Zhu Biao then praised him again. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, after verifying that Wang Buli's method of preventing altitude sickness was effective, he immediately pretended that he could not enter the plateau and retreated with the entire army.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened the sealed memorial, looked at it carefully, and then raised the corners of his mouth.

This can also reassure the Tubo soldiers, thinking that the Ming Dynasty has no ability to retaliate against them.

Who can guess Wang Buli's thoughts?

Without thinking, he knew it was from Mu Ying.

"What did he do with the calculation symbols on it?"

Zhu Biao took a look at the picture and couldn't figure out the reason.

"Dad, do you think he can use this to count?"

Without learning mathematics, physics and chemistry, there are miracles everywhere. For these illiterate people, Wang Buli has nothing to show off.

"Send it up."

Zhu Yuanzhang also said slightly excitedly: "Go and call Deng Yu."

Wang Buli explained to them again:

"This is called a self-ringing clock. The current setting is that when an hour is up, two little people will come out to dance and make a noise to remind you.

I still have to find time to go to the Qintian Prison and ask them to make some improvements for me. "

You must know that this thing called "self-ringing bell" by Wang Buli costs a lot.

Zhu Biao also burst out laughing after reading Mu Ying's memorial.

Stomp, tap, tap, sprint, the ordering soldier knelt on the ground, panting and shouting:

"Your Majesty, urgent report from the northwest."

After a while, the Duke of Wei Deng Yu rushed to the palace and met Zhu Yuanzhang.

Deng Yu was extremely brave when he was young. At the age of sixteen, he took over the army from his father and brother who died in battle, protected his hometown, and took the lead in the charge to fight against the Yuan Tatars. People from many surrounding states and counties rushed to send him money and food, praying for success. Protect.

Then he took the initiative to join Zhu Yuanzhang with a team of more than 10,000 people, and Lao Zhu changed his name to Deng Yu.

The most powerful thing is that Deng Yu himself staged an empty city strategy, which scared Miao Shuai so much that he did not dare to enter the city at all.

Everyone knows how Zhu Wenzheng shined in the battle to defend Hongdu, causing the other supporting characters to not shine very well.

But in this battle, Deng Yu defended the most important Fuzhou Gate.

Because this gate is open on all sides, it is very suitable for attack. After inspecting the battlefield, Chen Youliang also decided to enter the city from here.

The Han army that besieged Hongdu drove hundreds of large warships, three levels up and down, and set up stables. Each ship could carry two to three thousand people and was as high as a city wall on land.

The soldiers could land directly on the city wall from the ship. However, when they arrived in Hongdu, they found that the giant ship could not operate in this way. They had to land ashore and temporarily prepare siege equipment to attack various gates of Hongdu.

In the first three days of the Hongdu Defense War, Deng Yu was under great pressure, and the corpses of Han soldiers were piled up outside the city.

Chen Youliang was so angry that he was furious. If he could not win this sect, he would definitely engage in military law.

So the Han army, under the supervision of the troops who were sure to be killed when they retreated, launched a desperate struggle with the Ming army. Using bamboo shields as cover, they stormed the Fuzhou Gate and destroyed more than thirty feet of the city wall.

Generally, if you can't stop it at this time, you will order a retreat and engage in street fighting to look for opportunities to drive the Han army out. Hongdu will be considered defeated.

But Deng Yu was not an ordinary person, and he did not panic.

He is better at using firearms than Mu Ying. In other words, Mu Ying learned from Deng Yu how to unleash the power of firearms and improved them into three-stage shooting, which became popular in Yunnan.

So when the Han army poured in from the broken city on a large scale, they were baptized by fire.

However, due to the troublesome operation of this kind of thing, many people (such as Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng) were unwilling to equip it. Although they occasionally used it, only Zhu Yuanzhang actually used the musket as a separate unit.

It also influenced Zhu Di, who later succeeded to the throne. The Shenji Camp under him was playing with fire.

Under the loud sound of gunfire, many people did not even know about firecrackers. The Han army only saw white smoke rising, and their troops fell to the ground and howled.

This last move shocked Chen Jun so much that he could only flee in confusion, not daring to attack for a while.

Deng Yu did not just ask people to replenish the city wall. He knew that the Han army would come back again, so he immediately asked people to build a temporary city wall - Mucha with trees.

After more than half a month of fighting for Muzha by the Han army, Deng Yu commanded the defense, fought and built, and it was built overnight. Fuzhou Gate stands as before.

Chen Youliang then gave up attacking this gate and turned to attack the other gates.

The war lasted for eighty-five days, with 2 fighting against 60 (the strength of the troops seemed to be exaggerated, including the civilians). Deng Yu fought from beginning to end, and only waited for Zhu Yuanzhang's Yuan soldiers.

Lao Zhu attaches great importance to weapon manufacturing and constantly improves the army's equipment.

In every major battle, new weapons were used for combat. Not only were there weapons manufacturing workshops in the rear, but there were also craftsmen and equipment accompanying the army, as well as a large amount of gunpowder and other raw materials, which could make cold weapons and firearms on the spot and replenish them at any time.

Wang Buli looked down upon the strange firearms Zhu Di pulled out at that time.

But you must know that during the war, Lao Zhu used the most advanced firearms in China at that time, such as "artillery, blunderbuss, rockets, caltrops, large and small muskets, large and small general barrels, large and small iron cannons, and magical arrows."

At the same time, it also set a precedent for using "ship guns" to bombard enemy ships in water battles. In order to burn down warships, the incendiary firearm "No Help" was temporarily created.

This also cultivated a group of outstanding people who were good at using firearms for Zhu Yuanzhang, among whom Deng Yu and Mu Ying were the best.

At the age of 16, Deng Yu took charge of the army alone, and at the age of 28, he achieved great military success and gained a high position.

Deng Yu was one of the five princes.

During this expedition to Tubo, Zhu Yuanzhang had already chosen him as the head coach. He was still a young and strong man, and he took Mu Ying to practice.

When Deng Yu read the memorial written by Mu Ying, he was also overjoyed:

"Your Majesty, since the Prince Consort's method is effective, I am confident that I can completely wipe out the remaining Tibetan forces in the northwest."

"Good good."

With a smile on his face, Zhu Yuanzhang took Deng Yu for a while to discuss how to fight.

Although he did not have the means to micromanage, Zhu Yuanzhang decided how to fight the war from the very beginning, and all the generals who went out were his puppets.

Unless new situations and new fighters occur on the battlefield, these generals will have the opportunity to demonstrate their greater value.

After the discussion was over, Zhu Yuanzhang took Deng Yu's hand and said:

"Deng Yu, we know you are brave and valiant. We are relieved that you can go to the northwest this time. However, I want to warn you."

Deng Yu bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, please speak. I will obey you."

"Our son-in-law said that altitude sickness is a process of adaptation, and it is more painful for the elderly and the weak.

You are not yet forty years old, and you are still young and strong. I believe in your body.

But you must not show off your ability to chase the enemy, you must be slow.

Slow is fast, fast is slow, remember? "

"I remember it!"

Deng Yu answered enthusiastically. He was a little worried before. Now that he has this method, what is there to be afraid of?

"Your Majesty, just wait and hear the good news from me."

Deng Yu's face was full of smiles. He had lifted this restriction. If he couldn't achieve great success, let others do it.

"Well, wait until next spring when the flowers bloom. The winter there is long and cold. No matter how many clothes our Ming soldiers wear, their hands and feet will suffer from frostbite. Besides, the court also needs to allocate grain, grass and medicinal materials to the northwest, which will take time. ”

"Yes."

Deng Yu also understood that His Majesty likes to arrange such things in advance, so he just led his troops to fight.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood and couldn't help but give himself a holiday. Instead of continuing to deal with government affairs, he took Deng Yu and started drinking.

Zhu Yuanzhang admired Deng Yu very much and had never made any mistakes.

Zhu Biao once again arrived at the county government earlier than Wang Buli.

After Wang Buli entered his county government office, he was a little confused: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Zhu Biao had just stood in front of the self-ringing bell for a long time when he saw Wang Buli asking: "I'm used to getting up early. I wake up when the time comes and can't sleep."

Wang Buli chuckled. The father and son meant getting up early at three or four o'clock in the morning. Did the rooster crow at this time?
