Chapter 600: Specially Treating Phobia of Insufficient Firepower(1/2)
Sapphire seems to always appear in front of people in an extremely exaggerated way.
Just like many years ago, he was able to besiege the local cities of Ming Dynasty.
The street corner outside the Machinery Factory of the Ministry of Industry in Datong City.
Lan Yu rode a tall horse, wore armor full of glory, and appeared in front of Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Gui and others with his own soldiers.
From a distance, everyone could see the unrestrained smile on Lan Yu's face.
Don't wait for anyone to react.
Lan Yu had already rushed to the crowd on horseback.
In Zhu Yunxi's eyes, Lan Yu was like a majestic black bear, barging into human society.
"Wa hahaha!"
Lan Yu turned over and dismounted, her feet firmly planted on the ground, her lower body motionless, while her upper body opened her arms and swayed continuously, and then she arrived in front of Zhu Yunxi.
He stopped three steps away from Zhu Yunxi.
Lan Yu waved her shirt with one hand, then raised her fists and knelt down on one knee.
"Your Majesty, Duke Liang, military training officer of Datong City, Lan Yu."
"Meet His Royal Highness the Emperor."
In full view of everyone on the street, no one could find fault with Lan Yu's etiquette.
Zhu Yunxi lowered his head and glanced at Lan Yu who was kneeling in front of him.
He laughed slowly, bent down and reached out to help Lan Yu up.
"Uncle and grandpa, there is no need for such red tape. We are all in the military now, so we should keep everything simple."
Lan Yu stood up with a smile, showed his smiling face to everyone, and hummed in front of Zhu Yunxi: "The etiquette cannot be discarded."
After saying this, Lan Yu respectfully bowed her hands to Zhu Gui, Gao Yangzhi and others.
After doing all this, Lan Yu silently packed herself up and stood aside silently.
Zhu Gui looked at the expressions of several people and said with a smile: "Uncle, you are not training the army lieutenants outside Dongcheng today?"
Lan Yu waved her hand: "My sons and daughters have all practiced and mastered it. It is also okay for my deputy general to take charge of daily life outside the city."
Zhu Gui smiled and stopped talking.
Gao Yangzhi suggested from the side: "Your Highness, the Machinery Manufacturing Institute of the Ministry of Industry is just ahead."
Before Zhu Yunxi could speak, Lan Yu had already clapped her hands and said, "Your Highness, you must take a good look at the weaponry. There are a lot of good things produced by the people from the Ministry of Industry. I can't wait now.
It will open the eyes of the wolf cubs to be able to lead the young men in the army to live outside the customs."
"Well, let's go take a look."
Zhu Yunxi said lightly.
He can be said to have the clearest understanding of what the Ministry of Industry is currently doing in the entire imperial court.
Thanks to the fact that Ergong Zhang has started to take charge of the affairs of the work department, everything can move forward according to the most perfect path.
Turn around.
A group of people, led by Zhu Gui, arrived at the Ministry of Industry's machine-making factory in Datong City.
When we got closer, we could see clearly how tall and thick the chimneys that stood upright in this machine building were, spewing thick smoke all day and night.
Thick black smoke is constantly eroding the white sky.
It's just that at this time, no one said that they didn't care about the development of society and opposed everything that was happening with various selfish motives.
The sky is gray.
However, the human heart is pure.
As the royal prince guarding Datong City, Zhu Gui naturally took over the task of introducing the Ministry of Industry's Machinery Manufacturing Institute to everyone.
"The machinery manufacturing facility has been expanded several times in the past two years."
"At present, everything from the swords, guns, bows and arrows required for the army and horses in Datong to horse-drawn artillery, fire muskets, etc. are all produced here."
As he spoke, Zhu Gui raised his hand and pointed to several clearly differentiated internal workshops of the machine factory.
The area at the front can be seen as the earliest area of the weapons-making institute, which is now used to make swords, guns and arrows for the army.
Further back is an area for forging armor.
The steam engine drives the machine and builds the strongest armor in the world. Huge roars and thick smoke fill the surrounding area.
Once you get to a large area deep inside, you can see obvious differences.
There are soldiers guarding the entrances of various passages.
People coming in and out are all dressed in the same uniform, so they are different from those in front.
Even people who have just come out will have to be inspected again if they want to go in again.
After confirmation, it will be released again.
Zhu Gui smiled and opened his arms in front of a soldier.
The soldiers did not care at all that Zhu Guinai was the prince of the Ming Dynasty and the prince of the vassal state of Datong.
Instead, he treated Zhu Gui like the ordinary craftsmen who entered the building behind and needed to be searched, and began to groping for him.
Zhu Gui also took it for granted.
He even turned around with a smile, looked at Zhu Yunxi and others, and explained: "There are all firearms in here, and what I'm most afraid of is the tiny sparks. Back then, someone didn't follow the rules of the Ministry of Works, and ten people were killed or injured.
It took a few people to enforce the rules."
Zhu Yunxi just smiled.
In the firearms manufacturing area, he did not follow the rules and only killed and injured more than ten people. This is considered a blessing among misfortunes.
After Zhu Gui was inspected, Zhu Yunxi took the lead and walked to the soldier responsible for inspecting people entering and exiting, and opened his arms as naturally as Zhu Gui.
After half a ring.
Everyone finally completed the inspection and walked into the firearms manufacturing area of the Ministry of Industry's Machinery Manufacturing Institute.
Entering this area, everyone can smell a strong smell of gunpowder.
The fine dust in the air can darken a person's face in just a moment.
"According to the officials stationed here from the Ministry of Industry, the firearms made here are the most sophisticated craftsmanship in this dynasty today."
"But right now, the cannon is the most tempting."
As Zhu Gui spoke, he led everyone to push open the door of an extremely quiet warehouse.
In the dark warehouse, the air seemed to have solidified.
Looking inside from the outside, it can be said to be airtight, with not a trace of light visible.
However, the moment the warehouse door was pushed open by Zhu Gui, there was a smell of grease that must have been accumulated for a long time and had nowhere to vent.
Zhu Gui waved his hand: "Open the surrounding high openings."

side.
The grappling hook at the top of the pole reaches up to the high wall.
As the openings that were much higher than the ordinary windows were opened, there was finally some light in the warehouse, and the smell of grease that came out of it was much lighter.
As more windows are opened.
Even standing outside, you can clearly see what's inside the warehouse.
"The warehouse here is ten feet wide and thirty-three feet deep. Only artillery and ammunition are stored inside."
Zhu Gui had already walked sideways into the warehouse.
Zhu Yunxi and others followed closely behind.
Everyone who walks into this warehouse for the first time will be deeply shocked when they see the scene in front of them.
The warehouse door extends all the way to the innermost part, which is an empty main road.
On both sides, there are new Ming Dynasty artillery pieces that are pitch black and mounted on gun mounts with their muzzles slightly raised.
There are four rows extending from the door to the innermost part.
Surrounding the artillery is a huge three-story wooden frame on the opponent's side, which contains powerful artillery shells.
It's obviously not the first time Lan Yu has walked in here.
However, every time he stood here again, he would be deeply shocked by the scene in front of him.
"The warehouse here stores a total of two hundred new artillery pieces and ten thousand rounds of artillery shells. They are all made with the latest technology of the Ministry of Industry. Once put on the battlefield, they will be invincible!"
Lan Yu had been fighting on the battlefield all his life, but he could never imagine how much he would change the way he viewed war when these artillery pieces were pulled onto the battlefield.
