From Gaoliu to the west, after the clouds, the Hetao, and then to the south, is the Qin State.

The world will be in turmoil, and the Qin State is naturally within the scope of the world.

When the prisoners and others were eating hot pot and talking about the stories that happened thousands of miles away, Takayanagi's genius had just darkened.

However, in Liyang, the new capital of the Qin State, it was already dark because of the time difference.

Inside the majestic palace, the lights are flickering.

Qin Jun sat at the head with a solemn face, and under him were more than a dozen confidants, engaged in a big debate.

"My Great Qin soldiers, will I use a crossbow to bend my bow in the future? Or a musket? ”

This is the theme of today's monarchy.

Qin Jun was in a good mood, Wei Zhao turned his face, and the Three Jin Alliance, which had been difficult for Qin to sleep, disintegrated! The Mo family destroyed the Qi State in the first battle, and then stabbed the Wei State in the Zhao State!

A few days ago, the envoy of the Mo family came and invited Qin Jun to send someone to the Central Plains to join the alliance, which faintly revealed the idea that the Mo family wanted to form an alliance with the Qin State.

Qin Chu married, and the relationship has always been good.

If the Qi State was abolished after the war, if it can reach an alliance with the Mo family, then it can completely let go of its hands and feet and start a second more profound change, regardless of the civil war!

Regardless of whether the Mo family will keep their word after the alliance, it will make the Wei State jealous, the Wei State is over, from strategic offensive to strategic defense, the situation in the Wenhou era is completely gone, and it is only a matter of time before Xihe changes hands.

As for the shocking truths of the Mo family, Qin Jun didn't care. Zhou Tianzi is a fart? It's just a pawn in the hands of Wei, if Qin wants to be strong and Qin wants to change the law, then it is impossible to respect the old aristocracy.

Distant and close attacks, first west and then east, after Wu Qi's Xihe warriors were gradually exhausted, it was the time for the Qin State to go east.

There was the Mo family there to disturb the Central Plains, and the Qin State won the opportunity.

Moreover, not long ago, Qin Jun had returned from the westbound caravan organized in cooperation with the Mo family, and although the silk and Xuan Lin he brought were not produced by the Qin State, the price of buying them was not low, but they were still ten times more profitable.

Beyond the desolate Xirong, it doesn't take long to have a land rich in water and grass, and the most important thing is that the small tribes there are too easy to fight. Relying on stirrups, muskets, carts, and artillery is almost devastating.

What Qin needed after the reform of the law was the population, what he needed was serfs, and what he needed was serf servants who worked in the homes of the nouveau riche after the military merit was granted!

All kinds of goods and all kinds of armaments need to be exchanged for food. However, if the trade to the west goes smoothly, you can use gold and silver to buy all kinds of ordnance and goods of the Mo family.

Everything is a sign of the bright future of the Qin State.

And before this beautiful future, what Qin Jun needs to solve is the problem of Qin's military system.

In order to change the law, the military system must inevitably be changed.

Wu Qi, Sheng Xuan and others all knew the benefits of the Mo family's firearms, and Wu Qi relied on gunpowder to break the city when he attacked Daliang City.

So Wu Qi, Sheng Xuan and others knelt on the left side, and they supported the Qin army to use muskets in the future, eliminate bows and crossbows, and no longer produce them, and use all the military industrial forces to produce muskets, and the new military system uses muskets as the main means of killing.

And those kneeling on the right side are those who insist on using bows and crossbows, these people have their own considerations, not just because they are conservative, but they sincerely feel that it is not good for the Qin army to use muskets in the future.

The first person on the right said: "A high-grade archer can hurt people even a hundred paces away." A hundred paces with muskets, nothing can be fired. ”

"To shoot muskets, you need to stuff gunpowder and pound lead bullets first, and in such a time, the first-class archers have shot more than ten arrows."

After the man finished speaking, he looked at Wu Qi.

Wu Qi, who was already in his twilight years, said with a smile: "This is true. ”

Everyone was stunned, and their hearts said how could he support other people's ideas?

But he didn't want Wu Qi to say: "However, how long does a high-grade archer need to be trained?" ”

"How many people do you need in World War I?"

"In the battle of Qi and Mo, the Qi army is 100,000, the Mo family is nearly 60,000, and the army of 100,000 is needed, how many archers are needed? I have been to Sishang, and I know that the military system of Sishang, these 60,000 are just a standing army, if it is fully mobilized, the war of annihilation of the country, I am afraid that only 100,000 can be obtained. ”

"Qianmo is open, Jingtian is broken, how many of the recruited soldiers can have the archery skills of raising uncles?"

"But this is not the case with muskets, which are conscripted by peasant soldiers, given muskets, and fired in March."

"High-grade archer, you seem to be just an archer, but in fact, you need a hundred people to support you, and under the feudal system, you can raise a soldier. No crops, no crops, full-time martial arts. ”

"Open a strange place, break a well field, this hundred people who support a soldier, can all join the army."

"Even if the adoptive uncle is resurrected, can he alone deal with more than 100 peasant soldiers with guns?"

"The bow can only be made in three years in the cold and summer. Guns, blacksmiths can get by beating in March. ”

"What is the use of muskets if everyone is a nourishment?"

"But how many people in the world have the art of raising an uncle? After the law is changed, how many people can practice the art of raising an uncle? ”

"Times have changed, and bows are not available."

Qin Jun nodded slightly, he actually already belonged in his heart, but he was worried that he didn't think enough about it, so he wanted to hear the opinions of these henchmen.

The seemingly beautiful means of rural archery and archery are about to disappear with the imminent changes of the Qin State.

Under the comprehensive conscription system, the comprehensive mobilization system, and high taxes, which village community will have the leisure time to play archery?

With the destruction of the Ida system, how many people can have enough time, money, and energy to practice archery and become scholars?

The man on the right said, "Even so, the bow and crossbow can be fired in several columns, and the musket can fire in three columns at most. ”

The victor on the left sneered: "The bow is a bow, the crossbow is a crossbow, how can the bow and the crossbow be juxtaposed?" ”

"The bow can be lined up in six or ten columns, but the people behind it are just shooting at the sky, what's the use?"

"If you use a crossbow, you can only fire two or three volleys in front of you, like a musket, and do you want to let the crossbowman shoot at the back?"

"The bow and crossbow are separated, the bow is not available, Wu Qi has already said."

"As for the crossbow...... Crossbow arrows are too expensive, crossbow bodies take two or three years to make, and crossbow arrows may not have a long range as muskets. The Crossbow can be used in the post-Modified military system, but is not as good as the Musket. ”

"Mo Zhai was a carpenter's holy hand and a mechanical saint, but the Sishang Mo family didn't use a crossbow, which can't be ignored."

"The manpower of the craftsman who makes one crossbow can make five muskets."

"The manpower of a craftsman who sharpens a single arrow can make a hundred rounds of lead bullets."

"Besides, even if it's a crossbow, it needs to be stretched, how many times can ordinary people stretch it?"

"In the first battle of Nanjishui, the Mo family and the Qi people fought against each other, the most fierce battle, it is said that each of those companies lost the sixty lead bullets they were carrying, and if they were crossbowmen, how many times could they be fired?"

The man on the right shook his head and said, "You only talked about the advantages of muskets, but you didn't say anything bad. I said that the crossbowman could fire three shots, while the musket could only fire one. ”

Wu Qi laughed and said, "In the army, you are not as good as me." The strength of the military lies in discipline and military formation. ”

"In the past, when the copper cannon just came out, some people said that there were copper cannons, and the method of forming a formation was not feasible. However, I said that the more copper cannons there are, the more they need to form formations, and the need for troops to remain in formation under artillery bombardment in order to be called a strong army. ”

"Although the rate of fire of the musket is slow, if it is formed in formation, bound by military orders, and can only be fired at 30 paces before the enemy can be fired, then under the salvo, the opponent's formation is loose, how can the spear formation be broken?"

"Supplemented by bronze cannons and stirrup knights, defending with infantry formations and attacking with cavalry artillery, Fang is the upper class of the world's battles in the future."

"In the battle of Qi Mo, I knew that the Mo family would win. Why? Their soldiers can still form under artillery bombardment, and their soldiers can advance and retreat in an orderly manner, making up for the lack of rate of fire with discipline and formation. ”

The man on the right got up and bowed to Qin Jun, and then to Wu Qi and said, "I can't refute what you said." However, gunpowder is a thing, and no one in the world can make it except for the Sishang Mo family. ”

"It's like I can't smelt copper, once the war starts, what if the Mo family doesn't sell it to us? If the trade routes are cut off, even if we can buy them, we can't deliver them? Gunpowder is expensive, the Mo family has a monopoly, and they seek profits, so how much gold and silver do we need to exchange? ”

Wu Qi was about to say something, when he heard Qin Jun cough lightly and said, "In this way, the musket is not better than the bow and crossbow, but is more suitable for the military system after the law change, this can be regarded as a foregone conclusion." The only thing is the method of making gunpowder, which is only mastered by the Mo family, and this is the biggest problem. ”

"Is that so?"

This time, the henchmen on the left and right unanimously said yes, this is indeed an unavoidable problem, although now Qin Mo honeymoon, on the grounds of "opening mines and repairing canals", the Mo family not only agreed, but also knew that it was used for warfare and sold it in large quantities, but the people of Qin really did not want to be controlled by others.

If nothing else, just for the sake of today's world of great contention, who is the monarch who does not have the heart of the world? If you want to take the world, there are some things that cannot be controlled by others.

Qin Jun suddenly laughed and said, "There is one thing that can solve these troubles. ”

With a tapping of his hands, a man walked into the room a moment later.

This person Sheng Xuan has seen it, but Wu Qi has not seen it, when Sheng Xuan saw this person, he was still in Anyi of Wei State, and he only occasionally glanced at it, knowing that this person was Gongzi Lian's confidant.

There are some things, Qin Jun will tell Shengqiu, and some things will not. So some things are better than asking, and some things are not.

When the man entered, he respectfully laid down two silk wraps in front of everyone.

Then two opened, one containing a pile of gray-black powder, and the other with a bronze hook wrapped in it, which looked somewhat strange.

Everyone was discussing bows and muskets just now, and naturally their eyes were on the pile of gray-black powder.

Because that pile of powder looks ...... It's like gunpowder.

Wu Qi got up and asked, "Is it ......?"

Qin Jun nodded and said, "That's right." This is gunpowder, and it was not bought from the Mo family, but made by himself. ”

Sheng Yu exclaimed: "Impossible! Gunpowder is a thing, and the Mo family is extremely strict, and few people know about it. As far as I know, those who know the inside story, don't say a daughter, even if the fief is the king, it is impossible for him to betray his righteousness; Those who are in charge of making it are also hidden in that secret workshop, and they will not be able to come out for the rest of their lives. ”
