Chapter 1035 I want to nail him to the pillar of shame, and he will never stand up again!
Jin Feng stared at the Ninth Princess. The Ninth Princess was not as shy as other women, but stared at Jin Feng.
His eyes were calm and calm.
It was as calm as if Jin Feng asked her not whether there was a Tubo envoy who killed her, but whether the broth was delicious.
After a moment, the Ninth Princess said lightly: "Sir, it's really amazing. She can see through Wuyang's small tricks at a glance."
"No, Your Highness is amazing!"
Jin Feng endured the huge shock in his heart and gave a thumbs up: "You can still talk and laugh at the same time when you start a war between the two countries!"
"Sir, do you think there is any other way besides this?"
The ninth princess leaned back and said bitterly: "The Tubo people clearly asked for annual tribute. The princes and ministers all had their own plans. The father and son were soft, so they were likely to agree.
The annual tribute of Dangxiang and Khitan alone is almost crushed to death. If you pay tribute to Tubo, the people will not be able to survive!"
"So Your Highness simply robbed and killed the Tubo envoy and took the initiative to trigger a war?" Jin Feng said: "Your Highness, you are gambled with the fate of Dakang!"
"What else can I do if I don't do this?"
The Ninth Princess said helplessly: "Mr.'s original speculation was correct. Since the court wanted to increase taxes and collect autumn taxes in the past few months, three peasant rebellions have erupted in Lu and Henan.
If you take a gamble, you may have the chance to turn defeat into victory. If you don’t gamble, Tubo will definitely become the last straw that will overwhelm the camel, and Dakang will be really over!"
Jin Feng nodded slightly, and had to admit that the Ninth Princess was right and very sincere.
Saying so much to him is heart-wrenching.
"What will your Highness do next?" Jin Feng asked.
"Take the initiative while the Tubo people are not ready yet!"
The Ninth Princess said coldly: "Otherwise the situation would have been under the plot of Tubo, and Dakang could only fall into the abyss step by step!"
"Your Highness is right to take the initiative to disrupt the Tubo layout."
Jin Feng nodded slightly and asked, "Are you sure?"
"Sir, I also said that I have already bet on the fate of Dakang and I have to fight if I am not sure!"
The Ninth Princess said, "Of course, if the gentleman helps, he will be much more sure."
"Your Highness is so proud of me!" Jin Feng waved his hand quickly.
He participated in the war before to get a title, but now he has obtained the title. If there is no need, he really doesn't want to wade into this muddy water.
It’s not that he is afraid of the Tubo people, but that the Ninth Princess is now secretly provoking a war between the two countries without hiding it.
Even if you win, you will most likely be held accountable by the court afterwards.
If you don't do it well, you will lose your head.
"Wuyang said sincerely!"
The Ninth Princess said: "I heard that at the Jinchuan Ferry, the gentleman used a weapon called musket to kill a dead soldier. If the gentleman provided Wuyang with sufficient muskets, Wuyang would be confident of winning this battle!"
"So you're waiting for me here?"
Jin Feng suddenly realized and looked up at Qingmulan.
But there is no intention of blaming it.
At that time, there were too many people who saw him using muskets, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to. If Qing Mulan didn't say it, the Ninth Princess would definitely know.
Jin Feng untied the musket from his waist and placed it on the table.
"Is this a musket?"
The Ninth Princess looked up at Qingmulan.
"Yes," Qing Mulan nodded, "Mr. I used this to kill Dang Xiang carefully."
"Sir, how powerful is the musket?"
"The musket is filled with iron sand. Once activated, it is impossible to avoid it within a hundred steps." Jin Feng said confidently.
"Can you demonstrate it sir?"
"The musket sounds too loud. If you fire a shot, I'm afraid everyone in the village will come to ask what's going on?"
Jin Feng shook his head and said, "And it doesn't make any sense. I don't have the ability to make muskets in batches yet. Most of the parts of this gun are ground up little by little, and it took too long."
When the Ninth Princess heard this, she couldn't help but look disappointed.
No matter how powerful it is, what's the use of not being able to do it?
"Sir, what do you need to achieve mass production? Just mention it!"
The Ninth Princess said unwillingly: "Even if I go to grab it, I promise to snatch it to you!"
“There are so many things needed!”
Jin Feng said helplessly: "The most important thing is that it takes time!"
Although he has been working hard to improve the smelting technology, everything has to be started from scratch, and there is too much work to do.
Rome was not built in one day, and any work takes time.
The musket on the table is called the flintlock rifle.
The working principle is to install a flint called flint at the bottom of the gun, and then fill the gunpowder, iron sand, steel balls and other bullets in sequence.
When pulling the trigger, flint ignites the gunpowder, causing an explosion to push the iron sand steel balls out of the barrel.
This kind of musket is simple to make, low cost, and has a large range of killing. From the past life until Jin Feng remembers, the hunters in the village were still using flintlock rifles as hunting rifles.
However, Dakang's smelting technology was too backward, and just solving the problem of barrel blowing, Jin Feng took a lot of effort.
To achieve mass production, you must wait for smelting and lathe to go up to another step.
All of these take time.
Even if you don’t do anything, you can’t mass-produce it in such a short time if you spend twenty-four hours a day.
In fact, in the history of firearms, before the flintlock, there was a firearm called a flint gun.
Making is simpler than a flintlock rifle, but the ignition speed of the flintlock rifle is slower, and it is useless when it rains, and its power is not as powerful as a crossbow.
So Jin Feng planned to skip the medley and make a flintlock rifle.
"Sir, need time, then I will buy time for you!"
The Ninth Princess stood up and said, "Even if I die on the battlefield this time, I will win against Tubo, so that they will not dare to covet the Central Plains for at least ten years!"
"Your Highness wants to go into battle in person?" Jin Feng was shocked.
"Now the morale of the Dakang soldiers is sluggish. If I retreat to the back of the formation, there is no chance of winning this battle!"
The Ninth Princess said: "Wuyang has no way out, and Dakang has no way out. In the words of the gentleman, if this battle fails, then he will be successful!"
I have to say that Jin Feng was infected by the aura of the Ninth Princess.
He stood up and said, "I will notify Mancang later and hand over the latest heavy crossbow and catapult cart to His Highness!"
If possible, he would also like the Ninth Princess to win this battle.
"Wuyang not only needs heavy crossbows and catapults, but also wants to ask the sir to come out!"
After the Ninth Princess finished speaking, she bowed to Jin Feng and bowed again: "Wuyang wants to hire a gentleman as the escort commander, and I hope the gentleman will fulfill his promise!"
"Guardian Commander?" Jin Feng's heart moved.
According to the Dakang Law, the princess and princesses could only maintain one hundred guards in the capital.
However, when the prince goes out to take the vassal state, he can establish a third battalion guard, with a maximum of one thousand people per battalion.
Although the princess is not as many as the princes, she can also establish a battalion of guards to help the princess manage the fiefdom.
Although the stud is also a force organization, it has many restrictions.
For example, you cannot wear armor.
In fact, it is completely in accordance with the law and cannot even bring weapons into the city.
The soldiers around Guangyuan all gave Zhenyuan a escort and turned a blind eye.
When you arrive in a place like the capital, the bodyguards must strictly search their bodies and can only leave their weapons and equipment outside the city.
If he becomes the guard commander of the Ninth Princess, Jin Feng can play at will and can do whatever he wants.
Not to mention the future equipment, he will be equipped with guns, just relying on the armor he is hiding in the back mountain, and then buying a batch of war horses from the north. With the bodyguards who have been trained for more than half a year, he will soon be able to form a brave army!
But once she promised Princess Ninth, it would be like she was completely tied to the same chariot as her, and it would be impossible to get off the car halfway through.
Jin Feng did not rush to agree, but sat down slowly and fell into deep thought.
