Angbang Zhangjing, who had Tong Yangxing in the west room and was the prime minister for Han affairs in the Kingdom of Jin, was the first Han official and won the trust of Huang Taiji. Years ago, he was ordered to supervise the Han people to surrender their troops, and the craftsmen supervised the production of red barbarian cannons. When he was in Shenyang, he called Tong Yangxing to inquire about the casting situation of Hongyi cannon.
Tong Yangxing replied, "In ten days, I can make one or two hits."
Because he was eager to rush to Daling River, Huang Taiji ordered Tong Yangxing to quickly take the red barbarian cannon to Yizhou after it was destroyed. Now that he heard Tong Yangxing's request for a visit, his heart suddenly started to beat wildly, and he knew that it was his consort in the west room who sent the cannon!
Excited, he hurriedly waved his hand and ordered the guard: "Quickly send word to the prince-in-law in the west room to come see you!" [
Not long after, a Han army general about forty years old strode forward with his chest held high. It was none other than Tong Yangxing, the concubine in the west room!
As soon as he entered the tent, Tong Yangxing suddenly changed his previous posture of holding his chest high, and changed his posture of bending forward and leaning back. He also took very small steps and was very respectful. When he was three feet in front of Huang Taiji, he knelt down and shouted loudly. Said: "My minister Tong cultivates his nature and pays homage to King Khan!"
"No gifts for the consort in the west room!"
Huang Taiji personally stepped forward to help Tong Yangxing, with uncontrollable anticipation on his face, and said eagerly: "The prince-in-law has come in a hurry, but has he brought the good news of the red barbarian cannon from our Kingdom of Jin?"
Seeing the emperor's concern, Tong Yangxing couldn't help but show excitement on his face, and said happily: "King Khan, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my duty. Our Dajin Kingdom's red barbarian cannon has been successfully cast!" After saying this, he pointed outside the court tent and said: "I've taken it with you. The two red barbarian cannons left Shenyang four days ago and went straight to the Khan's tent without stopping. I found the two cannons outside the city. I asked the Khan King to go and check them out!"
As soon as he heard that two red barbarian cannons had arrived outside the city, the emperor was very happy. He laughed loudly and said loudly to all the Baylor ministers in the tent: "You and I will go outside the city quickly to see what the prince-sister-in-law in the west room is doing for us." Made of red cannon!"
"twitter!"
There was a roar from the crowd, and everyone couldn't help but be happy and excited. They all wanted to take a look at the red barbarian cannon of our Great Jin Kingdom right away!
At the moment, Tong Yangxing led a group of big and small Beile, Gushan Niulu, and Han officers and generals, surrounding Huang Taiji, and excitedly headed out of the city.
Along the way, everyone heard the sound of exclamation. The arrival of the two red barbarian cannons quickly spread throughout Yizhou City. Eight Banners generals came in droves from all camps. Everyone was eager to see the two cannons.
Some generals who had witnessed the power of the Ming Army's Red Yi Cannon lamented in their hearts, thinking that the Red Yi Cannon was so powerful that it was ten times more powerful than ordinary artillery. One shot could tear apart a fortified city. At that time, during the Battle of Ningyuan and Jinzhou, The Ming army relied on the power of the red cannons on the city to repulse the attacks of our Eight Banners warriors twice, allowing King Khan to return successfully.
Thinking of the earth shattering when the Hongyi cannon was fired, those who had witnessed it were frightened, and now they are very frightened when they think about it.
But now it's good, our country of Jin finally has its own red cannon, so we don't have to be afraid of the Ming army's red cannon in the future!
The prince-in-law in the west room is really the number one hero of our Kingdom of Jin!
…………
"I will see you, King Khan!"
As soon as Huang Taiji arrived outside the city, thousands of Han troops, led by officials of all sizes, knelt down and worshiped him.
Huang Taiji was so happy that he waved his hand to signal the soldiers to excuse themselves. After the crowd separated, he suddenly saw two huge figures lying in the middle of the avenue. They were covered with red cloth and surrounded by armored soldiers. It was extremely mysterious.
"King Khan, his servants and others have made red barbarian cannons. Please check it with King Khan!" [
When Huang Taiji came closer, Tong Guolai, Tong Yangxing's nephew and brother Tong Yangzhen's son, happily stepped forward and uncovered the red cloth on the huge thing at his uncle's signal.
In an instant, a huge cannon appeared in front of everyone's eyes. The black muzzle pointed straight into the air. It was like a general leaping on horseback and raising a sword. It was arrogant. Another red cloth was unveiled, which was equally shocking.
"What a big guy!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, shocked by the size of the red cannon.
Huang Taiji took a closer look and saw that the two red barbarian cannons were more than five feet longer than the Ming army's cannons, fully two feet long. The muzzles were about half a foot thick. The cannon bodies had several more iron hoops than the Ming army cannons.
Ears, front sight, and rear sight are all available.
The more I looked at it, the happier I became. My fat hands kept touching the cannon. I really wanted to hold this red barbarian cannon in my arms.
Seeing that King Khan attached so much importance to the red barbarian cannon, Tong Yangxing felt that his hard work was not in vain. He stepped forward with a smile and said: "King Khan, these two cannons are made of iron and a little copper. Copper is soft, so we added more to the cannons.
A few iron hoops, this can prevent the cannon body from exploding." After saying that, he patted the cannon body again and said proudly to everyone: "The red barbarian cannons of our Kingdom of Jin are much heavier than those of the Ming Kingdom, and each one is heavier.
It weighs three thousand kilograms and has a range of up to ten miles, which is no worse than that of the Ming Dynasty!"
Good guy, it weighs three thousand pounds and can shoot ten miles!
There was another burst of exclamation in the crowd, and some impatient generals and colonels ran up to touch this and that one by one, regardless of King Khan's presence.
Huang Taiji saw it and didn't take it seriously. He was also surprised. He looked left and right at the two cannons, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart: I wonder how powerful these cannons are?
Seeing what King Khan was thinking, Tong Yangxing hurriedly said: "Please invite King Khan and all the Beile to come to the top of the city for a while. I and Tong Tu Lai will immediately demonstrate the power of this red cannon to King Khan! So that King Khan will know that I
Absolutely boastful!"
"well!"
Huang Taiji repeatedly said that whether the cannon was effective or not would only be known after one shot was fired. He smiled and led Mang Gurtai, Jierharang, Degelei and Dudu to retreat to the city. After a while, they
We went to the top of the city. On the top of the city, we had already prepared tables and chairs.
After King Khan took his seat, a general on the city waved a flag to signal to the Tong family's uncles and nephews that they could fire cannons.
Tong Yangxing hurriedly waved to his nephew Tong Tulai to get ready. Tong Tulai excitedly directed the gunner to turn the red barbarian cannon and point it directly at an old earth wall several miles away.
"Charge!"
After hearing the order, the artillerymen who were originally from the Ming army skillfully loaded the two red cannons with charges, lit the torches and headed towards the fuse point.
"Hiss..."
The fire signal entered the chamber like a snake swinging, and Tong Yangxing's uncle, nephew, and gunners all covered their ears and squatted on the ground.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two loud bangs were like thunder from the blue, shaking people's ears. After the sound, the earthen wall a few miles away flashed with fire, and it was immediately blown into a pile of mud. The Eight Banners warriors inside and outside the city cheered at the same time.
"What a great Hong Yi Pao, what a great Tong Yang Xing!"
Huang Taiji slapped the table and stood up, his face full of excitement.[
Mang Gurtai was also shocked by the power of the Hongyi cannon. After a while, he came to his senses and praised: "The power of this cannon is not inferior to the Ming Hongyi cannon. With this sharp weapon, who else in the world can stop our Eight Banners?"
Iron cavalry! My brother congratulates King Khan and congratulates King Khan!"
Ji'erharang also laughed and said: "It's so powerful! The prince-in-law in the west room has made great contributions to the Jin Kingdom this time. With these red barbarian cannons, Sun Chengzong can't even mention Pingliao, can he keep him?"
Shanhaiguan is very lucky!"
Generals such as Du Du, Derge Lei, Ashan, and Darhan were also shouting excitedly, as if they had captured Shanhaiguan in the Ming Dynasty.
Huang Taiji smiled and said nothing, only looking happily at the two red cannons under the city with smoke still coming from their muzzles.
Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanwo, Bao Chengxian and other study officials had been following Huang Taiji on both sides. Seeing that the Khan was happy for the Hongyi cannon, they all frowned with joy.
Fan Wencheng was smart and was the first to say: "If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his weapon. With this red barbarian cannon, attacking the city is no longer a weakness of our Eight Banners. King Khan, my son-in-law in the west room successfully made the cannon.
He has really made an indispensable contribution to our Daikin, and he should be remembered as the first one!"
"hehe."
Huang Taiji smiled slightly. He knew that Fan Wencheng was reminding him that Tong Yangxing should be rewarded for his artillery-making achievements. However, he did not announce the reward immediately. Instead, he stood up with a smile and talked with Mang Gurtai, Jierhalang and the others again.
We had a great time chatting about the benefits of the red barbarian cannon, and then we ordered the account to be returned, and then ordered Tong Yangxing's uncle and nephew to enter the account.
