The Xiyuan Martial Arts Hall created by Emperor Chongzhen, including the military martial arts halls everywhere, the special divisions and the academics taught by them, and the professional soldiers to be trained are all new troops equipped with firearms and artillery.

Only by achieving the greatest effect.

When it comes to the update and iteration of firearms, Emperor Chongzhen was definitely the most urgent thing in the Ming Dynasty.

After all, in terms of the mess we are currently facing, the battle situation in Liaoqian, Shanxi and other places, relying on rectifying the troops and implementing the food and salary distribution system, although it can improve some combat power, it is unrealistic to change the overall battle situation.

In Liaodong, the trend of slaughtering slaves is very serious, and most of the border guards are unbearable.

The generals led by Liaodong generals, including Man Gui and Ma Shilong, the gang of tiger generals, all pursued the bad phenomena of raising family members and slugging the soldiers under their command.

The decline of the combat power of the Ming army was never caused by one side.

These are all kinds of stubborn problems and dregs. When they first appeared, they were not solved in time and gradually became a new trend.

The private route of elite soldiers such as the guards will inevitably lead to many problems. If this continues to be followed, how can the overall combat power of the Ming army remain undefeated?

In the Shanxi and Shaanxi, the bandits were wiped out and suppressed. Until now, the bandits were getting stronger and stronger, and the Ming army was getting weaker and weaker. Under the huge military threat, how could Emperor Chongzhen not be in a hurry?

"The Martial Arts Institute has made considerable progress in the characteristics of the firelock." When he came to the Martial Arts Institute, Jiao Xu looked serious and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen.

"However, the rifle mentioned by Your Majesty has many problems and troubles. The important component of the musket is the gun barrel.

However, after forging the gun barrel, it is not easy to draw a complete rifle in the closed gun barrel.

During these days, the Military Preparation Institute has also performed a lot of portrayals, but..."

When he talked about this, Jiao Xu didn't say anything anymore, lowered his head in shame, and Song Yingxing and others often looked like this.

"You guys don't have to be discouraged. It's normal for failure."

Looking at everyone's reaction, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "If something can be done directly, then what's the use of the Martial Arts Academy?

It is precisely because what you do is difficult, that you must take advantage of your brainstorming, discuss and study more.

Don’t be afraid of spending too much money. My attitude is clear and firm. I will definitely support the money spent by the Military Academy.”

After Emperor Chongzhen said this, Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu and others all ignited their fighting spirit, and even Deng Yuhan and Tang Ruowang and others were the same.

"Please rest assured that you are. I will do my best to break through the cage of the rifled flintlock rifle as soon as possible." Song Yingxing's eyes were firm and he assured Emperor Chongzhen.

"In addition, in terms of artillery, the Military Preparation Institute will also develop it well. It will definitely not let Your Majesty down, which will disappoint Your Majesty."

Although Xu Guangqi is in charge of this special military institute, the specific matters are Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu and others.

After all, Xu Guangqi was a cabinet minister of the current dynasty and had a lot to do. It was impossible to leave the court for a long time and run to the west mountain.

In other words, Emperor Chongzhen did not understand the development of firearms and cannons. If he could really understand more, then perhaps there would be more breakthroughs in the Martial Arts Institute at this time.

"I'll be relieved if you have these words from your family."

Emperor Chongzhen praised without stinginess: "You are all good talents of the Ming Dynasty and all heroes I value. Whether the Great Ming firearms and cannons can change depends entirely on you.

You should feel pressure in your heart, but you should also maintain a good attitude. You should always remember one thing: if the Martial Arts Institute can make a breakthrough, it will affect the national dynasty's rebellion.

Therefore, while doing a good job in developing firearms and cannons, all kinds of needs such as gunpowder, Lumi guns, bird guns, tiger squat cannons produced at this stage must be strictly checked to ensure quality."

Emperor Chongzhen also understood in his heart that no matter how anxious he was in the development of firearms and cannons, it would not solve the practical problems.

The window paper is indeed easy to break, but the perfect skills in this process require hundreds of trial and error, summarizing the corresponding experience and lessons to pass through.

"Your Majesty... I have something to report."

Deng Yuhan stepped forward at this time, bowed and said, "What Your Majesty said before is that the Martial Arts Academy should forge a three-edged military spear with strong lethality and continuous bloodletting. This weapon has been made."

"Yeah?"

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, his eyes lit up: "Is there any finished product here? Take it and ask me to see it."

The Sanling Army Badge is a classic work of cold weapons. It is known for its strong lethality and extremely difficult recovery of the trauma caused by the spike.

During the Ming Dynasty, if the Sanling Army Battalion could be placed in the army, and if it could be stabbed in close combat, the special trauma surface could make them continue to bleed and die in fear and despair.

During this period, the Eight Banners of Jianlu can definitely be called the strongest army.

There are strict hierarchical divisions in the Eight Banners, including Bayala, Hongyala, armored people, vests, siege armor, flag Ding, raising soldiers, Goshha, Baoyi Aha, etc., and Jianlu's own farming and war system,

Once organized, it will be a strict war machine.

This is also the reason why Jianlu Eight Banners can defeat the Ming Dynasty again and again in a harsh battlefield environment.

If the Sanling Army Baton can be mass-produced and given priority to be placed in the Dongjiang Army, Yongweiying and other units, and play a miraculous role in the front-line battlefield, it can also play a positive role.

"Your Majesty... Although Sanling Army Badge has been made, it has a very strong killing effect." Song Yingxing reminded him when he handed over a Sanling Army Badge to Emperor Chongzhen.

"However, the iron material required for the Triangle Army Battalion is extremely high. With the existing iron forging skills, the armor tool will break after more than ten times."

"That's right."

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he played with the triangular military spike in his hand and narrowed his eyes and said, "Then try to develop a higher specification of iron. I think whether the doping of certain mineral metals can effectively improve the properties of new iron materials.

?

When the Martial Arts Institute encounters problems, it must solve the problem. It cannot be said that it only focuses on the development of firearms and artillery.

If there is not enough manpower, submit a secret report to the CSR Supervisor, and I will send someone to solve the problem."

"Here!"

Song Yingxing hurriedly bowed and replied.

However, Deng Yuhan, who was accompanying him, looked a little ugly. He wanted to take this opportunity to take advantage of the emperor's happiness to propose missionary matters, but now it seems that it has been ruined.

How could Emperor Chongzhen not see Deng Yuhan's little thoughts?

However, the right to speak in the Wubei Academy is firmly in the hands of Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu and others, Deng Yuhan and Tang Ruowang and others, and they cannot cause any other storms.

Although Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu and others did pursue Western learning, and even Song Yingxing joined the church, they were people of the Ming Dynasty and the primary issue they considered was not missionary matters, but how to complete the errands assigned by the emperor.

Heaven, Earth, Lord, Parents and Teachers.

This pair of Song Yingxing, Jiao Xu and others who have been influenced by Confucianism since childhood were kept in mind. Such thoughts are something that Deng Yuhan and Tang Johnson-Wang cannot understand.
