In 1660, the 10th day of the seventh lunar month was about 9 o'clock in the morning.

The big ship with a deep draft sailed into the inland sea and slowly approached the Takasaki Shuizhai Wharf.

"It's back! General Wang is back! On the Takasaki pier, people cheered.

Wang Xinyu did not go to Chennai with the Drake, and when the fleet was about to reach the waters of Xiamen, he stopped the fleet, let his ship put down the boat, and took himself back to the Daifuku ship. Then the Drake, laden with cargo, parted ways with the fleet, hoisted its full sails, and sailed into the depths of the South China Sea.

The fleet docked at the wharf, and Wang Xinyu disembarked with the officers and men of the Navy Division and the Zhejiang officers and soldiers who had come to Xiamen for training.

After a few simple greetings with the brothers, Wang Xinyu went home first. Because he could only stay in Xiamen for one day this time, he would continue to set sail for Manila the next day.

Tomorrow's voyage will be Wang Xinyu's first time in a foreign country, the most important trip in his life, and it will open the door to a strong country. For tomorrow's voyage, Wang Xinyu can be said to attach great importance to it. He won't stay long when he comes home, just to take a look at his mother and sister, as well as the little girl named Zhang Yan.

Riding a tall horse back to the village, some villagers had already seen it and shouted loudly: "General Wang is back!" Dingxibo is back! ”

As soon as I walked to the door of the house, the courtyard door was wide open, and a fragrant wind came to my face. But it was my sister and the little girl Zhang Yan who stood at the door early and waited. I haven't seen it for a while, my sister Wang Xiangyu is getting more and more beautiful, because her nutrition has improved, and flesh has grown on her face, which looks white and tender, and she can be broken by blowing, and there are a few red halos, obviously a little beauty. Look at the beautiful girl again, she is even more beautiful, although she is young, she has a faint hint of a seedling who has fallen into the country and the city.

"My brother is back!" Wang Xiangyu jumped back to the house to report the news.

"Young Master!" Zhang Yanying said a thousand blessings.

"It's still called the young master? I said it a long time ago, and I will be your big brother in the future. Wang Xinyu smiled and touched Zhang Yan's little head.

"Yes, big brother!" Zhang Yanqiao had a smile like a peach blossom on her face.

Wang Xinyu took a closer look at his home, and saw that the house had been built, and there was a red brick wall outside, and there were green tiles on the wall. Walking through the gate, there is a corridor leading to both sides, with a large courtyard in the middle. There are two rooms on each side. Inside the gate, across the large courtyard, there is a lobby opposite, and there are still two houses on both sides of the lobby. Walking through the lobby, there is a backyard inside, and the backyard is flanked by a bunch room and a storeroom. At the back of the backyard is a row of houses, with a dining room in the middle, flanked by the mother's bedroom and her own bedroom, as well as her own study.

Wang Xinyu counted them, there were eight bedrooms, a study, a lobby, a dining room, a room and a storeroom. At the back of his master bedroom and dining room, there is actually a back garden, in which there is a rockery and a pool.

"Mother! Why spend so much money to build such a big house? Wang Xinyu was a little distressed about the money to build a house.

The mother smiled: "If you want to marry Miss Zheng, how can a house that is not so big be worthy of Miss Zheng!" ”

The other day I went home at night, I didn't see how big the new house was. I was surprised when I watched it today. But where did you get so much land to build houses? After asking my mother, I found out that my mother had bought all the land in her neighborhood and built a mansion that was so big.

Wang said happily: "Yu'er, a few days ago, my mother had already found someone to go to Zheng's mansion for a bride price, as long as it was a good day and an auspicious day, the marriage could be completed." ”

"Mother, the child will leave early tomorrow morning, and I'm afraid it will take a long time to go." Wang Xinyu said.

"Are you coming back from the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Wang asked.

"I'm afraid it's hard! The boy is going to Luzon in the South Seas, and maybe even to India. The boy found a piece of land on Luzon Island, and this time he took a group of people to get the port up. Wang Xinyu knows very well that there is not much time left for him, and he must develop his own territory and develop his own strength as soon as possible.

"This kid hasn't even come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival! My mother is still waiting for the Mid-Autumn Festival to give you a wedding! Wang sighed.

When the Wang family turned around to cook, Zhang Yan came up pretty: "Big brother, you just came and are you leaving?" ”

"Yes! The military situation is urgent! My brother can't spend much time with you. Wang Xinyu looked at Zhang Yan lovingly.

"When will my brother come back next time?"

"It won't be too long, my brother will come back and take you all to Nanyang!"

"Where is Nanyang?" Zhang Yan tilted her little head and looked at Wang Xinyu with big eyes.

"It's far, far away, but it's very beautiful! The sky is very blue, the water is very blue, the beach is white, and there are colorful coral reefs. Wang Xinyu felt a bit like a big bad wolf cheating on a little lamb at this time. But in fact, what he said is also true, and it is not a lie.

"Really? Brother, don't lie! Zhang Yan looked at Wang Xinyu with wide eyes.

"My brother never lies!" Wang Xinyu said with a smile, "In the future, my brother will not only take you to Nanyang, but also take you to Vladivostok to eat sea cucumbers and go to the polar skiing." ”

"Really?" Zhang Yan stretched out her little hand, "Don't lie to people!" ”

Wang Xinyu grabbed Zhang Yan's little hand: "In the future, my brother will take you all over the world!" The whole world is my Ming! ”

"Great!" The little girl clapped her hands happily.

After having lunch at home, Wang Xinyu said goodbye to his mother, sister and Zhang Yan and returned to the barracks.

In the afternoon, Wang Xinyu first took a look at the training of the recruits, and then arranged for the children of the Zhejiang army who were brought back from Zhejiang, some of whom were assigned to the naval division, and a group of outstanding ones selected by him were sent by him to the special combat team of the marine battalion of the naval division.

Walking into the special combat team training camp, Cai Jiuyi, Hong Xiguan, Luo Xiang, Feng Xifan and others greeted them.

After walking into the hall and sitting down, Hong Xiguan asked people to carry their weapons.

"Please take a look! These are all weapons to be used by the special combat team, and they are all built according to the requirements of adults, and some of them have been made now. Hong Xiguan hugged Wang Xinyu and said.

Looking at the weapons placed on the long table, Wang Xinyu saw that there were powerful hand crossbows, spring crossbows, sleeve arrows, darts, plum blossom needles, daggers, short swords and slingshots and other weapons.

Hong Xiguan picked up a powerful crossbow: "My lord, don't look at this thing is very small, it can be operated with one hand, but it is very powerful!" The bow of this hand crossbow is made of extremely elastic stainless steel, and the string is also made of steel wire, and the iron arrow fired can break through two layers of iron armor in less than twenty steps! Because of the great power, most people can only use their feet to wind the winding when winding. After winding, there is a cutout switch, which can ensure that it will not be triggered casually. When using, just turn on the safety and press the trigger on the target. ”

Wang Xinyu looked at this hand crossbow, which was about the same size as the micro chong of later generations, and it could be easily hidden on his body and carried.

Pick up the crossbow, aim at the target twenty paces away, gently pull the trigger to fire, only to hear a "bang", the crossbow arrow flew out like lightning, the whole penetrated an inch-thick plank, only the tail of the iron feather remained outside.

"It's so powerful!" The crowd applauded.

"This kind of hand crossbow, if it can be made into a repeating crossbow, it can take five or six arrows at the same time, pull the trigger and fire an arrow, it would be good." Wang Xinyu said a little regretfully. Although this kind of hand crossbow is very powerful, it is very slow to reload, and it is estimated that it can shoot up to five or six arrows in a minute.

Hong Xiguan arched his hand and said: "My lord, the manufacture of the repeater is complicated, except for the large bed crossbow, the small repeater has long been lost. Although this crossbow has a slow firing speed, it has other weapons to work with, and it is enough for our agents. ”

Wang Xinyu nodded and said: "The agents are mainly hidden, and they are generally not forced to do so, and they will not use weapons. ”

After looking at the various hidden weapons used by the special combat team, Wang Xinyu pulled out the flintlock short gun on his body and handed it to Hong Xiguan: "You give this short gun to Chen Craftsman and let him copy it!" First make a batch of these weapons for the special combat team and special agents. ”

Hong Xiguan took the short gun, clasped his fists and said: "Please rest assured, the humble position will definitely be transferred to the hands of Chen Jiangtou!" ”

Wang Xinyu took out some design drawings again, spread them on the table, and asked everyone to gather around to take a look.

"Look, this is a single rocket launcher that can fire flowering bombs and propel them with rockets as long as one person is needed. This weapon is very useful for your agents on assassination missions! With the flowering bomb, the thistle inside is infiltrated with poison, as long as it blows up someone, then the other party will definitely die! Wang Xinyu pointed to a drawing and said.

This kind of individual rocket launcher is actually a kind of wooden shelf covered with copper skin as a chute, and behind it is a launch mechanism in the shape of a short gun, on which is placed a rocket made of cardboard with a tail fin, which can improve accuracy. The head of the rocket is a special flowering bomb, although the shell is sealed in cardboard, but there is thistle in it, and it is all tribulus terrestris that has been soaked with poison, once it explodes, the thistle terrestris is sprayed everywhere, and the injured people in the explosion range are crippled even if they do not die.

Wang Xinyu took out another drawing: "This is a long-range gun, with rifling in the barrel, and the bullet is not our common round, but long." When fired, the bullet rotates, increasing range and accuracy! It is possible to accurately hit the target at a distance of four or five hundred paces. There is also a telescope on it, which is actually a scope. ”

In fact, this is the design drawing of the Minnie rifle, which has a long range and is extremely powerful, capable of hitting 500 meters.

Hong Xiguan saw the value of this weapon: "My lord, if this weapon can be mass-produced, ordinary soldiers can also equip it. ”

Wang Xinyu shook his head and said, "Impossible! It's hard to build such a weapon! It's good to be able to make one or two in a month! It can only be produced in small batches for the sharpshooters of the special combat team. And this weapon has not yet been tested, it is only on the drawings, and it will take some time to equip it. ”

In addition to the rocket and mini sniper rifles, Wang Xinyu also took out two other special forces weapons.

One is a turntable-barreled pistol, which is actually a flintlock pistol, but with seven barrels, each filled with bullets and gunpowder. While pulling the trigger, not only the spring can drive the flintlock to fire the propellant behind the barrel, but also the barrel can rotate at the same time. In fact, this is one of the most primitive revolvers. In fact, each barrel is a long sub-gun. After the seven barrels have been fired, the barrels can be removed and replaced with new seven connected barrels. In this way, the gun can be fired continuously.

However, because it is necessary to rely on the force of the trigger to drive the flintlock machine, and also to drive the barrel to rotate, the strength of the fingers required is very large. But it doesn't matter, these special combat soldiers are carefully trained, and no matter how great the trigger power is, it is not as great as the force required to pull the bow and arrow. But there is another disadvantage, that is, because it is a pistol, it is not very powerful and has a short range.

The other weapon is a long-barreled weapon, called a switch.

"The electric gun, combined with the Mini Sniper Rifle, works well in mountain warfare! long-range, shot with a mini rifle; When the enemy is near, shoot them with a bolt. Wang Xinyu pointed to the drawings of the electric switch and said.

The electric gun is actually a miniature Franc machine gun, which has a fast rate of fire, but like the Franc machine gun, there is a relatively serious gas leakage problem. Moreover, the price of the electric switch is very expensive, and like the Mini rifle, it is impossible to produce it in large quantities, so it can only be manufactured in small quantities and provided for the use of special combat teams.

Looking at the drawings of individual rockets, turn-tube pistols, mini-bullet sniper rifles and electric switches, Hong Xiguan suddenly laughed heartily: "Hahaha! If these weapons can be made, then my special combat team and special forces team of Hong Xiguan will be invincible in the world! When the time comes, we will kill any high-ranking Tartar official we want! ”

Wang Xinyu said with a straight face: "These are just things on the drawings, and the official got a book from Zhang Shangshu, which is Zhao Shizhen's artifact spectrum." This official also studied it on the basis of that book. Whether it can be made or not depends on the level of craftsmen. ”

Except for the Minnie rifle, which Wang Xinyu came up with by himself, the others were written on the "Artifact Spectrum", and then Wang Xinyu transformed it according to his own experience and Albert's Western weapon drawings.
