Chapter 565: A good story about father and son

After Di Yong and Sun Neng finished shooting, their horses passed in front of the target. They pressed the trigger on the musket with their right hands and opened the musket from the handle.

The two men took off the bullet chamber, replaced it with a new one, turned back their muskets, and galloped back. This time they fired while running, and in the blink of an eye they fired six rounds each.

"Okay!" Zhao Xu was very excited, holding up the telescope: "Have you finished the shooting? Let them come back after the shooting, and let me take a look!"

The barrel of the cavalry gun is a round tube. The forged steel is ground into a round tube first, and then the gun barrel is bored out. In fact, this is the biggest technological progress made by weapons supervisors recently, but this cannot be said about Zhao Xu.

Compared with the Shenji Gun, the Qi Gun uses a large number of stamped parts, which greatly reduces the workload and can be described as exquisite.

Su You introduced: "This riding gun actually comes from five workshops. The processing of the gun tube requires extremely high precision. In addition to confidentiality reasons, it can only be manufactured at the Ordnance Supervision Headquarters."

"Both the Shijia Workshop and the Gaojia Workshop are responsible for parts of the gun mechanism. Currently, only these two workshops can achieve the processing accuracy we require."

"The wooden support for the riding gun is made by the in-house workshop, and the leather goods are made of Weizhou cowhide."

"Because the ammunition is still a paper-cased bullet, the charge is no longer complete after explosion and cannot be taken out in time. Therefore, in order to cope with high-intensity battles, the cartridge can only be replaced as a whole. How to reduce the cost of copper-cased bullets, all colleagues in the Ordnance Supervision are working on

effort."

Zhao Xu was excited: "How much can Qi Gun produce this year?"

Su You said: "Well, Your Majesty, we are still in the finalization stage of the design. The plan to supervise this year has already been arranged. Now that the first quarter is over, all production capacities have been completed by 20%, and we can no longer put more burdens on them.

Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be problems with safety and quality."

"Your Majesty, I am very grateful to you, your Majesty, for the sincerity and sincerity of the generals and supervisors in serving the country. Several of the generals and master craftsmen will be moved to the workshop where they will have their food and accommodation."

"In the design building, designers are working day and night to calculate, design, and overturn plans one by one and start over again."

"What I can do is to let them eat well and live more conveniently. The children will be gathered together to study in the general school. The family members will arrange to work in vegetable gardens, pig farms, fisheries, sauce gardens, quilts and leather workshops. Let them

There are no worries. Also, they are forced to have a normal schedule."

"Compared with their contributions, they have paid too much and gained too little. I feel ashamed..."

Lu Huiqing was wary. This was an independent kingdom. He cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it seems inappropriate for the Arms Supervision to be independent of the Planning Department and the Zhongshu Supervision."

But Zhao Xu waved to the two of them: "Di Yong, who else, come here. Where is Wang Dujian?"

Lu Huiqing wanted to slap herself in the face, but she had lost her plan!

The garrison of the Ordnance Supervision are all Zhao Xu's loyal followers. If they are not the old emissaries who have been used for many years, or they are Yulin orphans, even if Zhao Xu wants them to commit suicide immediately, there will be no hesitation. If these people are

Don't worry, then there is no need to be the emperor.

Sure enough, I heard Di Yong report: "Your Majesty, the Wangdu Supervisor is debugging new weapons and waiting for your Majesty's inspection."

Zhao Xu nodded: "Hurry up and show me the gun."

Under Di Yong's guidance, he played with dismantling and reloading ammunition for a while, and then fired a few rounds at the target. Su You quickly smoothed things over: "The riding gun has natural flaws due to the sealing problem of the charge. This cannot be solved. Therefore,

The range and accuracy are hard to compare with the divine gun, and I don’t blame you for this.”

Sun Neng secretly rolled his eyes, and Zhong Xiaoba said that a teacher can be good at anything, but he can still speak eloquently, which is true.

Then the kid's skill of secretly rolling his eyes was not up to par, and Zhao Xu saw it, but he was in such a good mood today that he didn't bother to care about it: "How old are you? You are good at shooting."

Di Yong raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, he is Sun Neng and Sun Qianchen, the son of Sun Jie, the general of Kunlun Pass who my father conquered."

Zhao Xu nodded: "Descendants of Sun Liu, your father fought bloody battles in Guirenpu and was loyal to the death, giving the army a chance to win. He was a model for the soldiers of the Imperial Song Dynasty."

Sun Neng handed over his hand, with a look of perseverance on his face: "I have lost my teachings, acted absurdly, made my mother worried, and lost the voice of my late father. After reading the book, I regretted my past mistakes, and now I am starting from scratch. Bachelor Sima and Bachelor Su

It’s not too late.”

"Good!" Zhao Xu praised: "It's not too late. What book are you reading?"

Sun Neng said: "In the Book of Han, I like Huo Qubing the most! He can conquer the desert and conquer the stone Yanran!"

Su You slapped him: "Le Shi Yanran is Dou Xian, the general of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Huo Qubing is Feng Langju Xu!"

Zhao Xu liked this tough-headed young man very much and laughed loudly: "In any case, his ambition is commendable. If you don't study carefully, just keep working hard."

After saying that, he looked at Di Yong again: "In two generations of soldiers, father and son succeeded each other. This is a good story. It is very good."

Di Yong bowed: "I don't dare to be Your Majesty's false compliment."

Sun Neng was still standing dumbfounded, and Su You slapped him again: "You haven't thanked the emperor for his kindness. His majesty bestowed upon you this birth!"

Sun Neng quickly bowed and thanked him.

Su You took out another box, which contained an exquisite ivory-handled gold-plated revolving hand gun: "Your Majesty, this is a hand gun. It has the same principle as a riding gun, but it is shorter. It was handmade by Shi Gongquan, who is regarded as a weapon supervisor."

A gift for the Tongtian Festival to His Majesty."

On April 10th, Zhao Xu's birthday, Zhao Xu took it and looked at the golden gun body that was polished into a mirror: "Shi Gong's skills are extremely wonderful, and he also has several feather pattern steel swords hidden in the inner treasury.

, By the way, is this practical?"

Su You said: "Okay, Sun Neng, serve your Majesty for a test firing."

There are standard postures for pistol shooting, but Zhao Xu can also shoot a bow, so his arm strength is not bad, and firing a gun is not too difficult.

After firing six rounds, Sun Neng guided him to open the bullet chamber and pour out the bullet casings. Su You said: "This is a murder weapon, and it is very powerful. Your Majesty keeps it in a safe. The password can only be mastered by himself and the queen, and cannot be told to others."

Zhao Xu nodded: "I like this gift very much. Mingrun is interested. Let's go and have a look at Zhongzheng."

Su You glanced at Lu Huiqing awkwardly: "Uh... Your Majesty, I didn't expect that Lu Jianzheng would accompany me... This is a higher-level weapon from the Ordnance Supervisor. It's not the same as Zhongshu's subordinates."

, who are also aware of military and state affairs, and who are above the rank of privy envoy or deputy envoy, are not allowed to hear about this..."

Zhao Xu looked at Lu Huiqing and explained: "It is true that there is such a purpose. Then I'll ask Lu Jianzheng to stay here for a while while Mingrun and I go back."

Lu Huiqing was all smiles: "This is natural. Your Majesty, take your time and take your time. Don't be in a hurry."

He made a mental note to Su You. This was definitely revenge! He just mentioned that the weapons supervisor needed supervision, and Su Mingrun immediately returned it. This was definitely revenge!

Su You was not afraid at all. He lured Zhao Xu here today just because he had something to say. This was just the beginning!

The two got on the carriage and drove towards the valley deep in Songshan Mountain under the escort of the guards.

When Wang Zhongzheng saw the carriage approaching, he drew his sword and stood in front of him: "Stand at attention! Salute!"

Zhao Xu got out of the car and asked: "Wang Zhongzheng, what are you doing again?!"

Wang Zhongzheng raised his sword and pulled his throat: "Ceremony--complete! Take a break!"

Then he sheathed his sword and ran over with a flattering look on his face: "Guan family, this is the etiquette in the new style of conduct. Come on, come on, I'll help you..."

Zhao Xu opened his hand with a slap: "I just wanted to compliment you, but in the blink of an eye, he showed up! Oh, this sergeant is quite strong. Wait, please stop talking. I know - Mingrun, this should be called a bomb loader.

right?!"

Guo Huai was about to cry: "This...this..."

Su You introduced: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. His name is Guo Huai. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Zhiping. Now he is Sima of the weapons test team."

Zhao Xu said "Oh" and spoke softly on Wang Zhongzheng's behalf: "In my dynasty, there are many Jinshi officials who serve as commander-in-chief. Please cooperate with Zhongzheng to get things done, and don't make the scholar-bureaucrats angry."

In Zhao Xu's mind, the court officials and internal officials were too angry. He thought that everyone had the same temper, but he did not take into account the rank of the court officials who could see him.
