Chapter 552 Call them to North Korea

If there are bows and arrows, it may cause some damage. But in fact, there is no need to worry too much. The range of guns is not the same as that of bows and arrows. Bows and arrows are not as good as guns. Those people come and they just die.

However, the Ministry of Internal Affairs still has a bottom line and has not sold the bow and arrow. The Ministry of Internal Affairs may have known that these equipment will definitely fall into Huang Taiji's hands after they leave Daning City. In this case, these things may also cause damage to others.

Seeing Cao Wenzhao's disapproval, Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said, "The things are not very good, but they have to be divided into someone's hands. If they are in the hands of others, they naturally don't agree. But when it comes to Huang Taiji's hands, they are all good things."

"You know, they sold some big things to Huang Taiji a few days ago. Although they didn't know what the price they sold, they were said to have made a lot of money, and even His Majesty was alarmed at that time."

"What did you sell?" Cao Wenzhao looked at Lu Xiangsheng hesitantly.

"Arson." Lu Xiangsheng said without any hesitation.

"They are too bold, are they? Why do they dare to take out anything?" Cao Wenzhao was immediately excited, his tone was full of anxiety.

This time he was serious, he was really anxious.

Seeing this scene, Lu Xiangsheng finally laughed.

Seeing Lu Xiangsheng laughing so happily, Cao Wenzhao knew that this man was playing tricks on him, but he didn't care.

As long as this matter is not true, everything else is not important. Moreover, he has also relaxed.

"As long as you don't achieve anything," Cao Wenzhao said indifferently in his tone.

"You are wrong, you're done." Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "It is said that after you startle Your Majesty, Your Majesty agreed and sold it a lot of money."

"Not many people know about this. His Majesty summoned us to the next place and made a special explanation. His Majesty issued a ban order and did not allow us to leak it out. But it doesn't matter now."

Cao Wenzhao's face turned red in an instant. He couldn't say anything, after all, it involved the emperor.

He understood something. Although the ones sold were cannons or even the casting method of cannons, Huang Taiji should have been cheated.

After thinking for a while, Cao Wenzhao said, "But the method of casting copper cannons..."

What is the most expensive way to make artillery in the world? It must be heavy artillery. The materials themselves are expensive and the construction is not very difficult. So if this thing is really leaked, it will only make Huang Taiji even worse.

"Two things." Lu Xiangsheng did not continue to say anything, but explained: "One is the method of casting cannons, which is the kind of cannon that killed Nurhaci, which uses copper."

"There is also a main method of small steel cannons. You should also know that the cannon needs to improve the steelmaking process. So Your Majesty sold the casting method of the cannon to Huang Taiji. But the steelmaking process was not given. Huang Taiji had to explore and experiment slowly by himself."

"As for whether it is possible to do it, it is probably unlikely. Is there any information on the Jinyiwei? Huang Taiji already has this kind of cannon? So we should be able to see it this time."

"That's useless." Cao Wenzhao curled his lips and said with disdain in his tone.

What kind of artillery are used in the Ming Dynasty's artillery now?

Is that a metal fixed-loading rear-loading gun? And there is also rifle, which can be said to be wherever it is.

In addition, after applying the new type of gunpowder, the range was doubled. In the past, the range was ten miles, which was something that I dare not think about. Now it can be achieved easily and it is extraordinary.

"I tell you all this? I just want to tell you. After having these things, Huang Taiji must have been prepared. He will not sit back and wait for death. These weapons and equipment will definitely give him confidence and he will definitely come to attack us." Lu Xiangsheng said in a affirmative tone.

"Before going to the expedition, there was such a reason in the Staff Office. But no one knew it except us and the Staff Office."

"The Advisory Office has also formulated a plan to make Huang Taiji and the others even more tired? In addition, give them the courage to leave the city and fight to the decisive battle. Only in this way can they defeat them head-on."

"You should also understand the reasons for this? After all, we have all learned about geopolitics."

Of course Cao Wenzhao understood? Even in the army, he understood that the Ming Dynasty needed a big victory against Huang Taiji.

Although the Ming Dynasty won the last time, some arguments felt that the Ming Dynasty was taking advantage of the opportunity and could not win head-on. Moreover, this big battle in Liaodong, in addition to defeating Huang Taiji, it also had to be seen by others.

Although His Majesty said it was not a forceful shock, in fact, those words were just talk. The Mongolians looked at them, the Koreans looked at them, and even the Japanese people would watch them. This battle was for them to see.

The Ming Dynasty must show its might and its momentum, and must shock Mongolia, North Korea and others enough so that they can be honest.

When this big battle is over, His Majesty will put forward some new things and conditions, which are not something that Lu Xiangsheng can manage or participate in. All he can do is to fight this battle beautifully.

"Then you don't have to be so nervous." Cao Wenzhao looked at Lu Xiangsheng and shook his head and said.

Lu Xiangsheng was about to explain when the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in front of him.

The scouts not far away had already come over. They rode high-headed horses at a very fast speed and soon arrived in front of the army.

Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty's scout equipment is even simpler, and there is no armor on her body. She also wears a helmet on her head and only wears a piece of leather armor, and nothing else.

However, these scouts had a rifle on their waists, and they could reach the front with just a pull with their hands. The bullets were already filled with fire and they could shoot at any time. They had two short guns on their waists, and this thing was also equipped for them.

The horse has a strap on its body, and it is filled with bullets. What these people pursue is speed and play with long-range attacks. Anyway, the range of the gun is relatively accurate, so you can turn around and kill others with one shot at a long distance.

After coming to Lu Xiangsheng, the scout said directly: "Report to the Grand Commander, Jiannu Cavalry was found in front of him."

After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng smiled, turned to look at Cao Wenzhao and said, "Did you see? People have come. I said he will definitely come to block us."

After hearing his words, Cao Wenzhao shook his head and said, "Why didn't he attack Sun Chuanting's middle army?"

"This is easy to guess." Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "We have killed all the way, but nothing stops us. We can just drive to Hetuara City."

"So Huang Taiji and the others must defeat us first, and then fight Sun Chuanting. After all, they have few troops, and what they need to do is to end the war as soon as possible, and to concentrate their superior troops to annihilate them all first."

"Our side will be the way to annihilate by their concentrated forces. There is Fushun City on Zhongshan Pavilion, and nothing will happen in a while."

After hearing this, Cao Wenzhao snorted coldly and said, "I thought it's pretty good."

In fact, not only did he think so, but even Lu Xiangsheng think so. Is that person Sun Chuanting easy to share with?

Although Sun Chuanting was a civil servant, after being together for so long, they knew that he was not easy to provoke at all. Once he took action, it would definitely be thunder and lightning, and he would be ruthless.

Huang Taiji and the others actually played this trick, beat themselves, and then let the other side stick to it, which was simply a desperate attempt. But in fact, Huang Taiji did not have a good strategy to choose, so he could only do so.

Huang Taiji and the others wanted to see if they could fight to the death. If they didn't, they would have to be defeated. Waiting for a while was waiting, so they could only go out like this.

However, no matter how Huang Taiji and the others attacked, it actually did not make much sense. No matter how hard he tried, it would be useless. It had no meaning in the face of weapon generation differences.

Generals such as Lu Xiangsheng have received education and know what generation of dissatisfaction is. According to the summary of the Baigong Academy, they are considered the third generation of firearms.

The first generation of firearms was a combroach gun, paired with bronze cannons. This was the case with the earliest Ming Dynasty. In the words of the Baigong Academy, even the first generation of firearms, the Ming Dynasty had not been equipped, and the one with more equipment was Qi Jiguang's Qi family army.

After His Majesty ascended the throne, the firearm soon entered the second generation, namely the flintlock rifle and bronze cannon. At this time, the Ming Dynasty had equipped a batch of equipment. They used this kind of equipment in war back then, but later they changed their equipment, and all of them were sent to Liaodong.

Then the Baigong Academy created the third generation of firearms, which are the metal fixed-equipped spears equipped by them now, paired with mortars and mountain cannons.

At that time, Lu Xiangsheng asked if he could soon change to the fourth-generation firearm? The people from the Baike Academy have already made it clear that this generation of weapons will probably take a long time to use, and it is basically impossible to change to the fourth-generation.

The Baigong Academy has already begun to try to manufacture the fifth generation, but it seems that it will not be equipped even if it is manufactured. Then the sealing technology continues to study the sixth generation, and they don’t know what the specific situation is.

However, Lu Xiangsheng also understood that the third generation is temporarily enough. No matter which army it faces, the third generation can basically deal with it. In the words of His Majesty today, although the firepower is still slightly insufficient, it can already fight.

But this is what His Majesty said, and they listened to it. Many people think that this is not a problem of being able to fight, but that no one can fight with the Ming Dynasty personally.

But no one can refute what the emperor said, and they all praised it in one breath:

Your Majesty, you are right!
