I was puzzled to everyone.

Fang Jifan took off a box-sized musket from the wall.

This musket is only a little bigger than a palm and very short.

Everyone felt a chill when they saw this thing.

Not mighty at all.

Not only that, the comments under this thing have low accuracy, average accuracy, and range... they are even more outrageous, with only fifty or sixty steps.

An ordinary musket can already reach a distance of 150 to 200 steps, but such a thing... is not half as much as a bird gun.

Fang Jifan put on a toad mirror and put the musket in his hand, so that he could get the bullet. The bullet was made of lead... To be honest, this is contrary to Fang Jifan's spirit of peace, because the lead bullet is not very conscientious. Once it is shot into the body, with the current medical level, the mortality rate is extremely high.

After the reloading, Fang Jifan, behind the toad mirror, seemed particularly cold, raised his hand and pulled the trigger.

At the end of the showroom is a dedicated indoor shooting range.

Bang...

Immediately afterwards, the wheel of the short gun rotated, and then Fang Jifan attacked five times in a row, and had sex with him...

There are six rounds of shots, with almost no time interval in between.

Compared to ordinary muskets, they can't play with the process of loading and shooting for a while, and this musket as big as a palm can be done.

This is the famous revolver in later generations.

All the students were caught off guard and did not expect that the master did not call him, but raised his hand and shot.

Wait until everyone comes back to the taste.

But Fang Jifan pointed the gun of the short gun at his jaw. After firing, the gun was a little hot and smoke came out. Fang Jifan blew his breath and blew his breath at the gun. The only thing missing now was a large black windbreaker.

“Use this…”

Fang Jifan said: "A million people do not need to be practiced. Even a half-aged child can use it immediately after practicing for a few days. Do you know why Franchise people no longer use bows and arrows, but choose to use muskets? The power of muskets is not as powerful as bows and arrows. A well-trained archer is much more skillful than a musket. But... it takes a lot of time to train an archer, but muskets... For a farmer, it only takes a short time to get started."

"And what I hold is called a revolver, which can be shot continuously. The Jurchens and Mongolian tribes will migrate westward by hundreds of thousands of households. Of course, there are many sharpshooters, and these people can be organized, but for the vast majority of the elderly, weak, women and children, such weapons are needed to protect themselves."

"As long as such weapons can play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses and adopt reasonable tactics, they will be a magic weapon for killing on the battlefield. So, now everyone sends one back. Don't do anything in the past few days. Just think about what tactics should be used for such weapons and how to maximize their advantages on the battlefield."

After Fang Jifan said that, he turned around and ordered: "Let the Weapons Research Institute improve this short gun, and the range should be higher. Don't consider the accuracy. We are in a sea of ​​people, what accuracy should we need."

Wang Jinyuan was standing aside and nodded and bowed: "The villain understands."

Fang Jifan took a group of students behind his back and hurried out, and then took them to try the power of the knives.

Because of the development of steel materials, with good steel, it is enough to make good knives, and it is a large-scale production, so there are as many as possible.

In the future, this large-scale population will go westward. They need to bring a lot of supplies and weapons to cross mountains and ridges, and cross thousands of miles of deserts and plains. This may have been accustomed to the Jurchens and the Mongols, and they have suffered this hardship.

But... because dry food will inevitably occupy their main supplies and heavy weapons, it is difficult to carry.

Therefore, all weapons must be mainly lightweight.

Fang Jifan likes the tactics of the sea of ​​people, and minimizes the standards for all those who can go to the battlefield, so that even farmers can directly take to the battlefield to be cannon fodder. Only in this way can they achieve their greatest potential.

The power of the revolver is a little less, and it is not impossible to use it after improvement.

But the advantages of continuous launch are amazing.

Especially in this era, even the powerful Ottoman Empire may not be able to pull out more than 10,000 elite archers. Their muskets were still in a relatively primitive period. Therefore, it is conceivable what kind of situation would be formed when the cavalry all over the mountains rushed to them and shot continuously, and then pulled out the long sword.

The Jurchens and Tatars have always been fearless and are not difficult to get close to the enemy.

Before the Gatling machine gun appeared in the West, this was an unsolvable problem.

At noon, Zhu Houzhao ran away angrily: "Lao Fang, do you actually want to produce that short gun on a large scale?"

"What?"

Fang Jifan looked up and looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao said: "In addition to being able to fire continuously... this thing is not as good as bows and arrows. I have bows and arrows. I also have ten short guns, and I will send them to heaven."

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "But, after all, there are only a few people who are skilled in archery and horses like Your Highness."

"Short guns are expensive..."

Zhu Houzhao is a person who knows things, and he can find out the shortcomings of a hundred short guns.

Fang Jifan said this and suddenly became furious: "What we want is expensive. Most of the Tatars and Jurchens are used to using firearms. Firearms are not as good as bows and arrows. Once large-scale equipment is equipped, a large number of bullets must be provided at any time. Even if they want to make them themselves, they cannot be made. This certainly puts great pressure on our logistics, but now we have raised 50 million taels of silver. In the future... we can get more. With silver, we can send countless supplies to the front continuously. But in this way, the Mongolians and Jurchens of our Happy Group

People can no longer live without our logistics. Once the supply is stopped, they will be nothing. They have to be careful about these people. If they want to control them, they must make them dependent on us. Therefore, I not only have to mix the people from these tribes, but also mix them with sand and mix them with sand, and they also have to make them dependent on firearms. If they want to continue to move westward, they cannot do without my Ming supply. If they make everything self-sufficient, what else should I do? What should they do if they turn against each other? Only by making them unable to leave us is the way to last."

Zhu Houzhao thought for a long time and was happy: "The palace summoned the craftsmen and improved the short gun..."

Zhu Houzhao has a great influence among craftsmen.

After all, he was the leader of the Qiqi Research Institute. He knew very well that the strengths of most skilled craftsmen could go into the sea. As long as you use some effort to increase the power and range of this short gun, it is not difficult to increase the power and range of this short gun, it is nothing more than spending money.

The next day, Emperor Hongzhi summoned Fang Jifan into the palace.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi sat behind the desk, with a bit haggard face. What he was holding was a report from Wang Shouren.

Among the reports, Wang Shouren reported on the work of various desert ministries and organizing the Jurchens to move westward after entering the desert for more than two months.

Wang Shouren's arrangements were very meticulous, and even proposed to recruit a group of Han people who dared to leave the customs and mixed them into the Happy Group.

There must be a brave man under heavy rewards. As long as the mentor can raise enough money in the pass, Wang Shouren can do everything.

Not only that, he also spyed on the movements about the Ross people.

And this... is exactly what Emperor Hongzhi was worried about.

Emperor Hongzhi saw Fang Jifan and looked up: "Jifan, Wang Shouren's memorial, reported the situation of the Ross people. I used to know little about the Ross people. Now it seems that these Ross people are not just a group of mobs."

After Emperor Hongzhi said that, he took out the map of the world. Among the map, the Grand Duchy of Moscow, among the Ross people, already occupied a vast territory.

At first, they just depended on the Golden Horde and continued to strengthen themselves through the Golden Horde. After that, they defeated the Mongols and then annexed the countries. Through a hundred years of conquest, they had reached their peak.

When the Mongolian tribes scattered east of Ural began to turn to the alliance with the Ming Dynasty, it was said that the Ross had already received news.

They obviously didn't know much about the neighbor of the Ming Dynasty, but they had always coveted the land east of Ural and had great ambitions for the territory. Therefore, they also felt extremely afraid of the actions of the Mongolian tribes.

Therefore, taking advantage of the alliance between the Siberian tribes, the Ross also sent a military horse composed of 3,000 people to cross the Ural Mountains, giving great pressure to the Mongolian Khanate.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan: "Wang Qing's family means to organize a group of troops, move him, and try the depth of these Ross people. The Mongolian Khanate countries have already begun to ask for battle. Jifan, what do you think about this?"

Fang Jifan thought for a while: "Your Majesty, my son thinks that from a tactical perspective, it will be useful if you try the depth. But for other aspects, it is afraid it will be quite risky."

"What other level?" Emperor Hongzhi was puzzled.

Fang Jifan said: "Stock price."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

After a moment of silence, Emperor Hongzhi glared at Fang Jifan: "This is a major event in the country, so let's give it a try. I'll still report it. Let Wang Shouren make arrangements. If I don't test the depth of the Ross people, I will be unable to sleep or eat. I just realized that these Ross people are so ambitious. They have been fighting for dozens of countries in just a few decades. If they don't curb them now, sooner or later, when they expand westward, they will definitely be a confidant to my Ming Dynasty in the future."
