Chapter 7 Revolvers
In the first month of the capital, heavy snow was flying, and the inner and outer cities were covered with silver, which was particularly enchanting. In the past year, it was another great victory in Liaodong and the northwest. The Ming Dynasty finally changed its decline for many years and was proud. From New Year's Eve, the people in the capital have been decorated with lights, playing lions and dragons, celebrating the New Year and celebrating victory. For a time, the capital was full of fireworks, and firecrackers were constantly coming, and it was very lively.
On the 14th day of the first lunar month, early in the morning, the heavy snow had just stopped. It took a night of heavy snow. The snow in the small square between the Ganqing Palace and Kunning Palace was as thick as a ruler. At this time, two little boys in their teens were seriously competing for martial arts on the soft snow.
Although these two people are not old, their skills are quite solid. They are very scheming and sensible in each move, and they are very happy to hit each other.
If you dare to fight between the Ganqing Palace and Kunning Palace, there is no need to ask these two people, the little emperor Zhu Cijing and the prince of Zhennan Zheng Chenggong. Both of them are learning the martial arts of the Emei School with Qin Mingyue. They like to "scramble" if they have anything to do. They say they are practicing, but in fact they are learning martial arts and want to fight.
Zheng Chenggong is talented and can learn all martial arts at once. He fights for a while, punches, palms, and pointing at a point. The people are dazzled and dazzled. Zhu Cijing is not good at it. Perhaps his talent has been born into Xiwen. He has an average qualification and is far from Zheng Chenggong's opponent. But he relies on his age and his strength to be greater than Zheng Chenggong, and he specializes in "dragon shape", which makes him gain the upper hand in competitions!
In fact, his "dragon shape" is a hooligan. He relies on his greater strength than Zheng Chenggong to entangle others and throw it. He said that it was "dragon shape" in fact, it was actually a tangle. Zhu Cijing felt that he could not resist it anymore. He had to use his tricks and found an opportunity to rub his body. He grabbed Zheng Chenggong's arm, stretched his legs and threw Zheng Chenggong to the ground.
Zheng Chenggong was already prepared for being tricked by him so many times. As soon as his body lost balance, he grabbed Zhu Cijiong's arm with his left hand and leveraged the force. His right hand turned into a fist and punched Zhu Cijiong's eyes.
Zhu Cijiu was so scared that he turned his face and quickly let go.
Zheng Chenggong rolled to the ground and quickly rolled behind Zhu Cijing. He was sweeping his legs. Zhu Cijing was immediately swept his butt to the ground.
Now our little emperor got angry and sweared to him, holding Zheng Chenggong to spank.
Zheng Chenggong naturally tried his best to resist and prevent him from succeeding. The two soon fought together and rolled around on the snow.
Seeing this, Qin Mingyue, who was standing aside, couldn't help but smile and shook her head. She went forward to pick up Zheng Chenggong and protected him behind her, then picked up Zhu Cijing and tidied up his clothes, and advised him: "Okay, OK, Master, stop beating, it's time to tear the clothes again in a while."
Zhu Cijing grabbed Qin Mingyue and said angrily: "This kid is cheating again. I won't hit him, but his butt blooms."
Zheng Chenggong ran to Liu Rushi on the side, and asked her to help him tidy up his clothes while turning back and making a face, "You are the one who cheated first, always snatching people and falling, and agreed not to catch people and fall."
When Zhu Cijing saw Zheng Chenggong running away, he rolled up his sleeves and waited to pounce on him. He continued to angrily say, "Hmph, I promised not to slap in the face. You just hit me in the eyes. If you get a dark circle in your eyes, how can I see someone?"
Seeing this, Qin Mingyue quickly hugged Zhu Cijing in her arms and comforted her: "Okay, okay, my master, success is still young, don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Zhu Cijing felt his bones lighter and his anger subsided when he was hugged. He couldn't help but kiss Qin Mingyue on the face and said intoxicatedly: "Okay, I'll spare you this time for Mingyue's sake."
Zheng Chenggong was jealous on the other side. He threw himself into Liu Rushi's arms, kissed her in the face, and then said proudly: "Okay, for Rushi's sake, let it go this time."
Seeing that the two of them had almost had a fuss, Cao Huachun, not far away, walked up carefully and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to try that pistol?"
Zhu Cijing then remembered that when it was going dark yesterday, Bi Maokang sent someone to send a sample of a pistol, saying that he would ask the emperor to see it, and if there was no problem, he could be mass-produced. Zhu Cijing was dozing off in Qin Mingyue's arms at that time, so he was too lazy to get up to see it. He just asked Cao Huachun to prepare a cross target, saying that he would try again after morning court today.
He was not sleepy at this moment and was in high spirits. He was excited when he heard the pistol and couldn't wait to say, "Get the pistol quickly and put the target there, it's about fifty steps away."
Cao Huachun took the order and bowed and retreated.
Zheng Chenggong was excited when he heard that he had brought the pistol over. He didn't know what the pistol was, so he just thought it was a fresh toy. Who doesn't like playing with toys? He ran to Zhu Cijing happily and said, "Hehe, Master, what is a pistol? Is it fun? Let's play with it."
Zhu Cijing waved his hand angrily and said, "Go away, the pistol is not for playing with it."
When Zheng Chenggong heard this, he looked at him with grievance, and then looked at Qin Mingyue pitifully. This guy clearly didn't believe it. He thought Zhu Cijiu was angry with him and refused to let him play.
Qin Mingyue was so doting on Zheng Chenggong. When she saw his expression, she immediately became maternal. She walked up to hug him, and then carefully advised Zhu Cijing, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, just let him play with it."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Cijing rolled his eyes and explained helplessly: "The pistol is really not used for playing, it is used for war."
When Zheng Chenggong heard about the war, he became even more excited. He immediately broke free from Qin Mingyue's arms and applauded: "War! OK, OK, Master, let's fight."
Zhu Cijiu fainted after hearing this. Damn, you think it was a snowball fight. That's a real guy. If you shoot, you will be a hole in your body. I'll fight you!
Fortunately, Cao Huachun came over at this time with an exquisite sandalwood box. Not far away, several eunuchs were carrying a screen-shaped target and placed it at the designated position of Zhu Cijing. Zheng Chenggong was attracted by them and watched them with interest, but he no longer pestered Zhu Cijing.
Zhu Cijing was secretly glad, but when he saw the box in Cao Huachun's hand, he was a little confused. Damn, is there any mistake? Why did you make such a big box? This box is almost as big as the box of the later generations of electric drills. Is this a pistol or a electric drill?
He couldn't wait to go forward and open the box and saw, "Damn, this guy is bigger than the Desert Eagle, like a big belly version of the Desert Eagle! When he saw the barrel of the gun, he didn't need to ask, and he couldn't help but slapped his forehead, and it was his fault for a long time.
It turned out that when he explained the structure of the revolver to Bi Maokang, he only remembered the structure and forgot to mention the size. Bi Maokang was better, so he directly did it according to the barrel size of the Type 24 flintlock. This has the advantage that the barrel is ready-made and truncated, and the bullets are also ready-made, so there is no need to do it separately.
Zhu Cijing now wants to tell Bi Maokang that it’s a rifle, okay? This is a pistol. At that time, the rifle and the bullets of the pistol were not universal!
However, it is not that thin yet. The bullet and the medicine room are separated, so there is no problem with the bullets of the pistol with a rifle. Zhu Cijiu tried hard to pick up the pistol and looked carefully.
Well, this work is good, with a smooth surface and clear lines, which is comparable to some of the pistols of later generations. However, this weight is probably not three or four pounds. If you don’t have the belt on the belt, the belt will fall off!
The handle is also very beautiful, made of red sandalwood, and it has a very texture. However, this size is probably a big slap in the palm of your hand to hold it with one hand. Damn it, I forgot to say that a pistol is not a rifle, so you don’t need to hold it with both hands to shoot.
But it has been made like this, and Zhu Cijing has nothing to say, so he can only try the performance first. He struggled to open the fastener, checked the flexibility of the rotor, and the bullets and medicine chamber inside. He felt that there should be no problem, so he put the gun in, fastened the fastener, then raised the pistol, aimed at the target in the distance, and shouted: "Cover your ears."
Zheng Chenggong and Liu Rushi cooperated to cover their ears, but Qin Mingyue ran over and covered his ears. Zhu Cijiong's face was suddenly covered with dark lines, but he did not refuse Qin Mingyue's kindness, just pretended that he had brought an earmuff.
He began to pull the trigger hard. As the trigger moved backward, the wheel began to rotate slowly and the hammer slowly raised upwards. He felt his hands trembling a little. He was not excited, mainly because he was still young and it was too difficult for him to pull the trigger. Finally, he was about to come to an end. He gritted his teeth, poured all his strength into his hands, and pulled it hard.
With a loud "bang", a stream of white smoke came out of the revolver in Zhu Cijing's hand. At the same time, a "bang" sound came from the wooden target in the distance, and the wooden board with two fingers was penetrated!
Damn, this power is so powerful!
Zhu Cijing was stunned. Zheng Chenggong had already secretly ran up and snatched the gun from his hand. He imitated him and pointed the gun at the wooden target.
Liu Rushi covered her ears and didn't dare to come over. Qin Mingyue quickly let go of Zhu Cijiu's ears and ran to cover Zheng Chenggong's ears.
Zhu Cijing didn't come forward to stop him, but stood there and laughed angrily, boy, I can't help but you clamp your arms and legs.
Sure enough, Zheng Chenggong held it in for a long time and used all his energy to eat, but the trigger only moved a little bit. Finally, he had to put down his pistol panting and look at Qin Mingyue next to him pitifully.
Qin Mingyue took the pistol curiously, imitated Zhu Cijing's appearance, raised the pistol with both hands and pointed it at the wooden target, and Zhu Cijing quickly covered his ears.
"Papapapapapapapapapacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacacaca" The speed of an extraordinary master like Qin Mingyue is naturally unmatched. She has always used muskets as hidden weapons, and naturally it must be fast, fierce and accurate to launch hidden weapons. So in the blink of an eye, she fired out all the remaining five bullets and fired three empty guns.
Qin Mingyue put down the empty gun in her hand and commented very professionally: "Well, this hidden weapon is not bad, it does not require any skills or strength. Its speed is OK when it is launched, and most people cannot avoid it."
Zheng Chenggong said admiringly while clenching his ears: "Sister Mingyue, you have such a lot of strength!"
Zhu Cijiu ran to the target and took a look. When he saw that his chin was almost falling. There were 6 bullet holes on the target, and one of them was not within the range of the ring line. Needless to think, he must have shot it. The other five were shot on the ring line in the center, lined up in a neat pentagon!
This, this, this, this, this, the revolver made by Bi Maokang is so accurate, and Qin Mingyue, a natural female gun god!
