Chapter two hundred and fifty first new propellant

There is naturally a reason why Huang Taiji and Lin Danhan looked so dark.

What is the reason why these nomadic peoples in the north were able to defeat the Ming Dynasty's army repeatedly?

It's their cavalry.

This is their proud ability to ride and shoot. It is difficult for the cavalry of the Central Plains to pose too much threat to them in this regard.

Now the Ming Dynasty army has developed this new way of riding and shooting with muskets.

This kind of firearm, called rifle by Zhu Youxiao, has been fired from the horse and can be replaced directly and quickly at the horse. With such a long range, they will directly send their old-fashioned cavalry into the mound of history.

Now Huang Taiji and the others have been defeated by Zhu Youxiao, but he actually hopes that their Jurchen tribe can prosper again.

He probably thought that after he was captured and came here, his younger brother Dorgon would be the most likely to take over his position.

In fact, he knew Dorgon's ability very well.

That's still a little skill, and even in some ways, it's not inferior to him.

But now this situation proves that no matter how capable Dorgon had, he still had no hope in defeating the Ming army.

Lin Danhan's situation is even more complicated.

He just felt that he was taken to Zhongyuan by Zhu Youxiao to use conspiracy and tricks, and he didn't know when he would return to his tribe.

He originally wanted to find an opportunity to return to the grassland, but now he found that even if they returned to the grassland, they could only become targets for the Ming cavalry.

The Ming army did not even need powerful riding skills. Their soldiers only needed to know how to ride horses.

After all, the difference between firing a gun and firing an arrow is too big.

Just find a farmer to practice for ten days and half a month, and you can practice it by firing a gun. Although it is not the case that the shooting is accurate, you can still shoot the bullets out.

Just give him another three or two months to let them know how to ride horses, and such Han cavalry will be trained.

But their Mongolian cavalry would no longer have any advantage over these, even if they were just rifle cavalry made up of peasants.

Lin Danhan looked at Huang Taiji helplessly and said, "Look at how powerful this musket is, I wonder if Your Majesty will equip your and me troops at that time. If it can be equipped into our two troops, our army's combat effectiveness will at least be greatly improved."

Huang Taiji sneered and looked at Lin Danhan, feeling that the other party was as stupid as a pig, and that Lin Danhan was bullied by their Jurchens over the years and could not raise his head.

"Your Majesty will never be able to equip such weapons to us. You will just die of your heart."

Lin Danhan blushed, as if he was a little unsatisfied, and was a little angry that Huang Taiji had said such direct words to him.

But Huang Taiji is now in a mess and can't care about so much of him. He just said whatever he thought, and perhaps he had the intention of venting anger.

He absolutely does not allow himself to be the saddest person.

Cao Bianjiao stood up on the horse and fired the first shot. A jar of wine broke out in response, and the ministers cheered.

Cao Bianjiao is just looking for a good start, and he has even more powerful abilities to perform.

I saw him riding a war horse back and forth on the school ground, firing three shots in a row, and then exploded three jars of wine in the air.

It is really hard to say what Huang Taiji and Lin Danhan thought here, but Liu Hongxun and Sun Chengzong were both greatly shocked.

If they hadn't come here, he really didn't know that their Ming Dynasty army was now strong.

These new types of firearms emerge one after another. They seem to be like old scholars who are busy studying in the countryside, and they have no idea about the world.

Cao Bianjiao rode his war horse and returned to Zhu Youxiao. He knelt on one knee and shouted loudly: "I don't want your Majesty. Now the shooter shot out three bullets, and all three of them have hit the target. Please review it."

This time, Zhu Youxiao just raised his hand slightly, and didn't even say too much, nor did he find Cao Bianjiao in front of him like he did just now and personally help him up.

After all, Zhu Youxiao was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so he still had to be a bit concise. Occasionally, he personally helped the general, which was called being valued. If he always kept helping a general, it would be a loss of price.

Cao Bianjiao stood up slowly and heard Zhu Youxiao over there say: "General Cao is a tiger general. The contributions he made before will not be expressed. The court has its own rules and will naturally announce them later. Judging from the contributions you made today, you should also give some rewards. If you come, please reward Cao Bianjiao with a flying fish suit to show your favor."

Cao Bianjiao was overjoyed and quickly knelt down on one knee again, "Thank you Your Majesty."

The other generals also looked at Cao Bianjiao with envy.

I have to say that the flying fish suits given by the imperial concubine are different from those worn by ordinary Jinyiwei.

During the Ming Dynasty, the flying fish clothes that were awarded to heroes were generally bright red, and the flying fish had wings. It was better to say that he was a fish and dragon than a flying fish.

Ordinary generals may work hard for a lifetime, but they will never be able to get a flying fish suit rewarded by His Majesty, because that is a symbol of glory.

This Cao Bianjiao has also received all the favors of His Majesty.

The musket here has been tried, and the gunner of the cannon there has been equipped.

Sun Yuanhua came to Zhu Youxiao and said, "Your Majesty, the artillery on that side is ready. Should I try it now?"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Then try it."

The civil officials and generals present looked at the cannon with great interest. Huang Taiji and Lin Danhan on the other side stretched their necks and raised their feet, wishing they could ride on the neck of the Ming Dynasty official in front and take a look at this new cannon.

Both of their tribes actually have tragic fates. Jiannu was directly defeated by the artillery of the Ming Dynasty, and Lin Danhan was also forced to surrender by the artillery of the Ming Dynasty.

Now they heard that the artillery in the morning had created a new thing, so how could they not be interested?

It should be said that among everyone here, the two of them are more interested in this kind of artillery, and this interest even surpasses Zhu Youxiao.

They saw that the overall style of this cannon was very similar to the original appearance of Emperor Apocalypse's golden gun, except that the barrel was a little thinner.

But Zhu Youxiao did not tell them the significance of the test firing of this cannon today. What is more important is not that it is much lighter in weight, but that they used a new type of launching medicine.
