Duan Ye waited, waited, and when Jiangyu finally came out and sat down, the answer would be revealed!

The person who appeared in front of him was actually Princess Qinghe! And she didn't wear a veil, she appeared in her true face!

Of course, when he was in Dunhuang, Duan Ye had already seen the true face of Princess Qinghe, but today it seems that Duan Ye still does not have any immunity. 【n Look】

Princess Qinghe's appearance can no longer be described in words, Duan Ye used to be very proud, because his women, whether it is the aesthetics of this era or the standards of later generations, can be called Tianxiang national color, but compared to Princess Qinghe, they are somewhat inferior.

Peerless elegance, that's what she said, because even if she was wearing a plain skirt, she sat down directly, which suffocated Duan Ye's breathing.

In fact, at this time, all the women were staring at Duan Ye, and the young Zheyan Nalan looked at Duan Ye in a daze, knowing that Duan Ye was also shocked by Princess Qinghe, and couldn't help but feel pantothenic acid in his heart, and couldn't help but snort.

It was also this sound that signed Duan Ye's soul back, Duan Ye stood up, coughed lightly, and said, "Princess......"

Princess Qinghe immediately said: "My lord, there is no princess here now, Qinghe is just a title in the past, this title, and the slave family, means all kinds of unbearable past, and life is still very long, the slave family does not want to die for the time being, so please call the adult Nu Ying'er in the future, this is the slave's nickname." ”

Ying'er, is it still a nice name, Duan Ye thought to himself, but this Princess Qinghe is famous in history, but it is a pity that there is no record of her name in any official history, but the story of her and her younger brother Murong Chong is often written by some otaku and rotten girls into all kinds of **ah and the like, so in fact, Murong Chong and Princess Qinghe are also very well-known in later generations. But these people, the general level is not enough, and it is very vulgar to get a name for Princess Qinghe, what Murong Xiao, Murong Huan, these are not in line with the Murong family's habit of naming at all.

Of course, Duan Ye was also very curious about her real name, but in this era, a woman's name cannot be asked casually, for example, there is an item of "asking for a name" in the process of marrying, so Duan Ye had to suppress his strong curiosity. And after all, people gave themselves a nickname, which is not bad.

Zheyan Nalan saw that Duan Ye was just staring at Ying'er stupidly, and his heart was sour again, and he couldn't help but say: "My lord! This meal is cold! ”

Duan Ye also felt a little embarrassed to be squeezed like this, and quietly glanced at Ying'er, and saw Princess Qinghe, but she was very calm, her face was as usual, Duan Ye suddenly felt in his heart that he was in love.

"Alright, alright, eat!" Duan Ye picked up the chopsticks again, at home, which meant that everyone could start eating.

So everyone is naturally a gust of wind, including Princess Qinghe, and there is no problem at all in adapting to it. Duan Ye kept peeking at her, and found that she was still cute and cute when she grabbed something.

After all, she is still a young woman in her early twenties, and it is the most beautiful time of a woman's life!

Thinking of Princess Qinghe's tragic experience in the past, Duan Ye couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

……

Liangzhou is now booming, not only economically, politically, but more importantly, military.

After the cold weapons such as the Divine Arm Bow were put into use on a large scale, Duan Ye took advantage of the fact that he was very rich at hand, and simply decided to put on the hot weapons!

Black powder has been made before, due to technical factors, yellow powder still has not been won, this is not a matter of principle, but a process problem, now Duan Ye of course made glass, and can also make some utensils and the like to sell for money, but there is still a distance from making various precision instruments. And of course there are various formulas or something, but the process is insufficient, the construction is not in place, and many things that should be done cannot be made.

At this time, Duan Ye realized that it was not possible to be too ahead of the times and ahead of productivity.

But in any case, the advantage of firearms over cold weapons is too great, and Duan Ye still remembers that hundreds of thousands of Boxers were defeated by thousands of Eight-Nation Coalition troops equipped with firearms.

If your own army wants to compete in the world, how can you do it without firearms?

Firearms, starting with guns, of course!

Originally, out of trust in his engineers, Duan Ye only roughly explained to them the principle of muskets, and Duan Ye wanted to see if these amazing craftsmen could create miracles and make a musket by themselves.

As a result, after several months of hard work, the people in the arsenal excitedly told Duan Ye that they had made a musket and achieved initial success, and hoped that Duan Ye would personally guide him.

Duan Ye also went to the shooting range in a hurry, but when he picked up the "musket" made by the craftsmen, he couldn't laugh or cry.

That's right, judging from the appearance, this is indeed a "musket", the front part of which is a thick bamboo pipe, and then the craftsman said that the expanded part of the section is a powder chamber, with a little fire hole in the outer wall, and the back part is a hand-held wooden stick.

Duan Ye didn't have anything to say about this structure, after all, using metal at this time was both luxurious and impractical.

As for its use, the craftsman said that this musket was fired with a wooden stick on the ground, with the left hand holding the iron pipe and the right hand igniting.

Duan Ye immediately asked them to demonstrate, so the craftsman took out the fire fold, and then lit the fuse, only to hear a loud noise, a stone was shot out, but Duan Ye felt more speechless, is that its range is only forty or fifty meters.

This...... Duan Ye didn't want to hit their positive xìng, but to be honest, what this primitive musket could really play was only psychological deterrence, and at such a distance, it was completely impossible to kill and injure the enemy, that is, to put an artillery battle.

The leader of the craftsmen was waiting for Duan Ye's praise excitedly, but he saw that Duan Ye had been silent, and his heart was a little bottomless.

In the past, Lord Duan always praised us for the first time, but this time he didn't, is this thing really bad?

Duan Ye thought about it, and still said: "Anyway, I didn't guide you, you can achieve such an achievement, it is still very hard, and it can be regarded as a credit, so you should be rewarded, it will not be less!" ”

The crowd immediately cheered. After all, Duan Ye is very generous, and it is not ambiguous at all to give a reward.

But Duan Ye immediately waved his hand and stopped them, "I don't want to spoil your interest, but after all, I have to be honest, you work hard, but this musket of yours may not be able to be used in actual combat." ”

These words made everyone suddenly feel like pouring a basin of cold water.

Duan Ye didn't care about their unsightly faces, and continued: "First of all, due to the raw material ratio of gunpowder, our black gunpowder has quite limited thrust and limited range, there is no way to do this, but how can it not be only a dozen zhang, right?" As far as I know, this kind of gunpowder, if it is well designed, it is not a big problem to start sixty or seventy zhang, you think about it, since we are firearms, at least, we have to be similar to bows and arrows, otherwise we will squat here and shoot, and if people shoot a salvo, we will all die, what is the use of this firearm? ”

Duan Ye's tone was not critical, on the contrary, it was very funny, and the last analogy made most people laugh.

Duan Ye didn't laugh, but continued: "Besides, you look at this barrel, you can't aim at all, you can only visually inspect it according to the naked eye, how much experience does this need?" And what about the accuracy? To be honest, I think that if this kind of gun can be trained as a sharpshooter, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to train than to become a sharpshooter like Feiwei. And because the barrel is bamboo, I don't know if you've done experiments, but I'll tell you, obviously, after about four or five shots, the bamboo at the end of the barrel will become very fragile because of the burning of the gunpowder explosion, and it will break if it falls to the ground. You say don't you? ”

Everyone nodded silently, and their heads, which were originally held high, were all lowered at this time, indeed, what Duan Ye said made sense, they didn't expect it to be so detailed at all.

After all, they are perennial weapons makers, and they all know in their hearts, they will calculate, according to Duan Ye's train of thought, continue to think, a twenty-person musket team, it is already a great luck that 5 people can successfully fire in a single shot, and it is a great luck that two of the five bullets fired can not fall before reaching the enemy, and when they reach the enemy, there may be another bullet flying past the enemy, and the last bullet is because the enemy's armor is strong...... All in all, it is indeed true that as Duan Ye said, this kind of musket is only a deterrent, a deterrent force......

Seeing that everyone was a little depressed, Duan Ye knew that if these people had no confidence, it would not be cost-effective, so Duan Ye said again: "But you don't have to be discouraged, no matter what, after all, you are the first to make firearms, you are very remarkable!" No one has made it, you can rest assured, your name, the name of every craftsman, will be written into the annals of history and remembered by future generations! ”

These people are boiling with blood!

What do people live for, it's nothing more than fame and fortune! Duan Ye treats people very generously, and there is no shortage of them at all, in the past, craftsmen were very despised, after Duan Ye's continuous publicity, now the social status of these craftsmen has also improved significantly, and many people do not regard them as untouchables, and are willing to marry their daughters to them, of course they are very grateful to Duan Ye.

But what Duan Ye said is famous in history, this is too big! They couldn't have imagined it in the past!

Who would have thought that a craftsman who studied weapons would go down in history? Isn't this just glorifying the ancestors? ~
