Therefore, Nan Yanxi is very interested in firearms.
I also took the time to do some serious research back then.
They even use their position to monitor and protect them.
I stayed at the Kyoto Firearms Bureau of the Ming Dynasty for half a year.
After all, cultivating a gunman and artilleryman is much less laborious than cultivating an elite archer.
Currently in Daxia and surrounding countries, Nan Yanxi has not discovered that they use firearms to fight.
As for the use of gunpowder, it is only used to make fireworks during the New Year and festivals.
The closest military use is to make signal bombs.
If you think about it carefully, if you can be the first to equip the troops with sophisticated firearms.
In the future, whether it is attacking or defending the city, it will definitely be even more powerful.
Not to mention pushing all the way, but it is also rare to meet an opponent!
However, I am still not professional enough for this matter.
The proportion of gunpowder, the manufacturing principles of guns, etc. all require special personnel to make them.
Since there is no East in this world, these Westerners might be able to do some research.
The two of them drank strong drinks one cup after another, and soon became tipsy.
Nan Yanxi smiled and patted Lubink on the shoulder: "Brother, let me ask you a question."
"How many big ships do you...have?"
"Hey, Nan! I'm not bragging to you, I have ten ocean-going ships."
"My family, hehe... there are more than three hundred ships."
Speaking of this, Rubink was very proud.
But then he shook his head in disappointment: "Hey...it's a pity that I couldn't find the colony and trade routes this time."
"When I go back, I'm afraid I'll be deprived of even the qualification to compete for the position of head of the family!"
When Nan Yanxi heard this, she waved her hands vigorously: "Who said that? Who said you didn't find it?"
"Brother! If you find me! You have found a huge fortune."
I saw him drunkenly saying: "I... would like to make a promise to you on behalf of myself and my future empire."
"I want to launch comprehensive cooperation with you! Whether it is people's livelihood or military, all aspects!"
"Comprehensive...really...really?"
Rubink's eyes were blurred with drunkenness, and his tongue gradually became louder when he spoke.
However, Lubink already had a general understanding of Nan Yanxi.
At least for now, most of the Nanhai Kingdom, a small part of the Northern Plains, and Daxia Yuzhou.
Nan Yanxi still has the final say in these three places.
"Of course it's true." Nan Yanxi drunkenly pulled his shoulder.
"Brothers... I don't know why, but I think the two of us are particularly compatible."
"If you don't believe it, how about we two become sworn brothers of the opposite sex right now?"
At this time, Rubink was a little drunk and his mind was a little slow.
"Uh...what do you mean by brothers of the opposite sex?"
As soon as these words came out, Nan Yanxi raised her eyebrows slightly, and a cunning look flashed in her eyes.
"Oh...that is to say, from now on, the two of us will be closer than real brothers."
"As long as it's my business here, I'll cooperate with you!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Rubink's reaction, he turned around and ordered: "The Incense Worship Case!"
The guards had already received his orders in advance, and the incense burner and incense table had been prepared.
Without giving Lubink time to react, Nan Yanxi pulled him over and both of them knelt on the ground.
"Brother...you can just say whatever I say. This is a very serious ceremony!"
"Oh..." Rubink nodded ignorantly, but he had no idea what he was going to do?
I saw Nan Yanxi cupping her hands towards the incense table: "Heaven..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and asked: "Uh... what do you believe there?"
Rubink scratched his head: "We believe in God there."
Nan Yanxi nodded, turned to face the incense table and said seriously: "God and God are on top!"
"Today, I, Nan Yanxi, and Lu Binke became brothers with different surnames!"
"In the future, we will share blessings and share hardships! We don't want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but we want to die in the same year, the same month, the same day!"
Lubink, numbed by alcohol, followed Nan Yanxi stupidly and knocked his head on the ground.
"Okay! The ceremony is done! From now on, we will be brothers and our own people!"
"Hehe... OK, OK..."
Rubink stood up unsteadily, smiling dazedly.
"Come on, let's keep drinking!"
Nan Yanxi's treacherous plan succeeded, and she couldn't help but feel good.
Holding Rubink's hand, he drank one glass after another of high-quality liquor as if it was free.
In this era, distilled liquor had not yet been invented in the Lanhe Empire.
How can he be Nan Yanxi's opponent when it comes to his drinking capacity?
After a while, he became confused and lost his mind.
Nan Yanxi raised her head slightly and exchanged glances with several smart girls.
Everyone smiled knowingly and the performance began.
Mu Qingyan, Ye Zhiyu, Xiao Li, Li Jingmo, Yang Yuxuan, Lu Yingying.
These are these women who are smart and smart.
They took turns toasting to Rubink. While toasting, they also asked a few more questions "casually".
At this time, Rubink naturally had no reservations. He asked one question and said one thing, and asked two questions and said two things.
When you are happy, you will be bald by yourself without anyone asking.
From humanities to geography, from people's livelihood to military affairs.
Almost all of them were asked by the girls.
Nan Yanxi's firearm problem has also been answered.
The entire Lanhe Empire already has some simple firearms.
But it has always been suppressed by the ruling class.
The top brass of the country, as well as various knight families, royal nobles.
They still believe in sharp swords and long bows.
I still believe in great knights, holding sharp and huge lances, and fighting gentlemanly duels.
Nan Yanxi can understand, no matter what new things appear.
In the beginning, there will be resistance from the world.
Human beings are nostalgic and stubborn creatures.
They always subconsciously believe in the old things they are already familiar with.
And refuse without hesitation, or even fear, contact with these new things.
Not only that, the emergence of such firearms will naturally upset some people.
For a simple musket, the user only has to pull the trigger once.
Its power can easily exceed that of a well-trained archer.
A civilian slave, with a little training, can have the ability to kill a great knight.
This is definitely not allowed and will naturally be suppressed.
But Nan Yanxi is certain that it won't take too long, maybe only a few decades.
Firearms, a new type of weapon that can change the rules of war, will definitely flourish in the Lanhe Empire.
Because good things are good things and will not be buried because of those stubborn old-fashioned people.
Nan Yanxi secretly made up her mind to develop firearms before this happened.
Foreigners and ambitious people abound. They are good at plundering and advocate conquest.
If you don't pay attention now, one day in the future, someone else's powerful ships and cannons will come over.
The only ones who feel uncomfortable are themselves and their loved ones.
Coincidentally, among the entourage who came with Rubink this time, there were several people who were very knowledgeable about firearms.
They even made several muskets for hunting in their spare time.
