The muskets of the Ming Dynasty were imitations of the most advanced Portuguese firearms in the world at that time, but they could not even penetrate the armor of Qing soldiers.
This is really...
Played like a bird.
Not to mention the red cannon, which is too bulky and not conducive to mobile warfare.
There were no roads in ancient times, so people had to rely on horse-drawn carriages on muddy roads.
It takes only two minutes for you to fire one round, but others will control it... The battlefield situation is changing rapidly, who will give you a chance every two minutes?
Starting from the Tang Dynasty, China's wars were basically mobile warfare. Soldiers were expensive and fast. At that time, even heavy armored soldiers were eliminated. What are you doing with a shot every two minutes? This also led to the lack of soil for the development of hot weapons.
.
Many of the imperial court's muskets and artillery are actually better than nothing...
Therefore.
Until the Qing Dynasty, China's wars were still dominated by cold weapons and hot weapons. Until Western countries began the industrial revolution, steam engines, hydraulic machinery, mechanical granulating cylinders, steam heaters, polishing machines made of graphite, etc.
A group of advanced machines began to produce gunpowder, and the emergence of the most stable yellow gunpowder developed by Nobel really gradually replaced cold weapons.
so.
Liu Zheng has never thought about developing hot weapons. Firstly, he does not want to break the current world structure, and secondly,... he does not know how to make guns!
He understands gunpowder, isn't it "one wood, two nitrates, three sulfurs"?
However, it matches.
Is there a bird for it?
Black powder is unstable because it can spontaneously ignite!
Pay attention to this.
Spontaneous combustion!
Even if you don't use a ignition point, it may explode due to ambient temperature, humidity, and unknown reasons.
Isn’t the life of one’s own soldiers life?
Yellow gunpowder?
Liu Zheng still doesn’t know how.
Um.
So for now, this Quelehodo is really something that makes people very happy.
"It would be best to find someone who knows the origin of this Queleho."
Liu Zheng ordered to go down.
Jiang Xuan got the order.
Own an oil field of your own...
What a beautiful thing this is?
Local tycoon!
The standard equipment for future generations of rich people. Although... I may not be able to keep up with the era of scientific petroleum refining, but it is still a good thing to give to my sons and grandchildren.
Liu Zheng almost woke up laughing when he fell asleep.
...
Protectorate of the Western Regions.
The day of reconstruction.
It can also be regarded as attracting worldwide attention.
Thirty-one years after the Longyan Dynasty lost its control over the Western Regions, it once again sent its army deep into the Western Regions to recapture Yanqi.
Everyone celebrates.
The whole city is happy.
Liu Dahao, wearing his official uniform early in the morning, accepted the congratulations of others with a smile.
"Congratulations to Liuzhou Mu for the reconstruction of the Protectorate, and the King of Wei presented a piece of deep-sea coral..."
"Congratulations to Liu Hou for conquering the Western Regions, King Yong..."
"King of Shu..."
"Congratulations to Liuzhou Mu, King of Qin..."
"Master Zhu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, is sending..."
The process of opening the Dufufu has not even begun yet, and congratulatory gifts are coming from all directions.
Now that Liu Dahao, with his strong soldiers and horses, and a high position, has become one of Long Yan's new rich people, who wouldn't want to come over and make a good relationship?
"Okay, okay, thank you! Please come quickly, please come quickly!"
Liu Dahao kept saying thank you.
These people all came to the Western Regions with King Yong... In ancient times, because of the inconvenience of transportation, everything needed to be planned in advance. At that time, Yanqi had not yet been captured, but it did not prevent them from preparing for the attack.
If we come down, we celebrate. If we don't capture it, we celebrate the capture of the chariot division. It's all the same anyway.
In fact, the same is true for imperial edicts.
The old emperor also prepared two sets of rhetoric.
