The fleet returned to Qiongzhou Island after a four-month absence, and Wang Xinyu saw his wife again. The koalas brought back from Oceania are, of course, indispensable to their wives. Koalas are such cute little animals, as long as girls like them. Although Zheng Yun has been a wife for more than two years, if she gets the afterlife, she is only a junior in high school, at most a freshman girl, but in this era, she is already about to become a mother.

"I, I have, it's been more than four months since you left last time you left." Zheng Yun was shy, lowered her head, and whispered softly in Wang Xinyu's ear.

It's good news, it's always nice to be a father soon. Regardless of whether he is born a son or a daughter, Wang Xinyu actually doesn't care, he really doesn't pay much attention to men and women from later generations. However, someone has already come to the door to get married, and Wang Xinyu can only refuse with a wry smile to the person who comes to the door.

"Wow, what a cute little animal!" A girl's voice was heard.

Wang Xinyu turned his head to look, but saw that it was a super cute little Lori, with big eyes, a goose-egg-shaped face with childishness, and a little red face, which made people want to go up and kiss it when they saw it. This little Lori seems to be a little familiar, and Wang Xinyu forgot where he had seen it for a while. Suddenly, he remembered: Isn't this Fang Qi Niang?

After two years, Fang Qiniang is already seven years old, although she is young, she is already a beauty embryo, and she will definitely be at the level of disaster when she grows up.

"Qi Niang? How did you come to my house? Wang Xinyu asked curiously.

Little Lori raised her head and saw the uncle in front of her, but she was confused for a while. As a young child, she had the impression in her mind: "How delicious candy are you?" ”

"Yes! I've got some candy, if you like it, I'll bring it to you. Wang Xinyu was about to reach out to hug Little Lori, but he felt a bit like a big bad wolf.

"Great, I have candy again." Little Lori jumped up and picked up the koala and walked out.

"Her father did so much for us, and he was away for a long time. The child had no one to take care of him, and he was placed in a juvenile camp. My sister saw that she was very cute, so she brought her back. Liu'er, who was standing aside, replied.

"Don't look at her small, her martial arts are not bad! Most of the children in the youth camp can't beat her! Zheng Yun added.

"Huh? So powerful? Wang Xinyu's eyes widened in surprise, "She's only seven or eight years old, right?" How can those half-grown children say that they are thirteen or fourteen years old, and they can't beat this little girl? That's amazing! ”

Liu Er smiled: "What is her father's skills, the son must also know, right?" This child started practicing martial arts at the age of five, and it has been two years. I learned a lot of martial arts. ”

"Promised!" Wang Xinyu said with a smile, "When she grows up, she can inherit her father's job!" ”

It's so unconscionable! This is simply not used for women as women! Liu'er's eyes widened.

There are still a few pairs of koalas brought back by Wang Xinyu, and the rest are planned to be brought to Jiangnan, one of which is given to the Qian family, which can be regarded as a gift to Miss Qian who has not passed through the door, and the rest need to be given away.

He stayed in Qiongzhou for a few days and took a group of prisoners and people. Wang Xinyu took Zheng Xi and Zheng Jing again, boarded the ship and continued to the north. Zheng Jing knew that he was gone. I didn't know that Ma Yue would come back in the Year of the Monkey, so I had a long talk with my sisters and sisters, and hugged my little nephew, the grandson of King Jin, and then I reluctantly said goodbye.

The fleet first returned to Xiamen Island and anchored for a day.

Because of Wang Xinyu's arrival. Originally, in history, during the civil strife between Zheng Raid and Zheng Jing, the Qing court took the opportunity to seize Xiamen Island did not happen, and Xiamen Island was still firmly controlled by the Ming army. Shi Lang has been transferred to the capital to serve as an idle position, and Huang Wu was frightened by Zheng Jiajun. He did not dare to consider seizing Xiamen Island at all, and he had no naval division available, as long as the Fujian naval division dared to go to sea, he would be exterminated by the Nanyang Navy. As for Li Shutai, he didn't have the courage to flirt with the tiger's whiskers.

The fleet anchored in Xiamen for a day, pulled a group of people and women brought from the mainland, and headed straight to the east.

The Zheng army stationed in Kinmen and Xiamen still went ashore from time to time to attack the Qing army, and the Qing army cities along the coast were attacked by the Zheng army. The Ming army, which was in dire need of population, naturally took all the captives and civilians with them.

After a night of sailing, the fleet returned to Dongfan Island at dawn and docked at the pier in the Taijiang Inland Sea.

In the rebellion of Zheng Xi and Zheng Jing, Wang Xinyu and Zheng Cong Huangque defeated the two kings and captured Dongfan Island. At present, Dongfan Island is still the territory of the king of Yanping, but this king of Yanping is Zheng Cong.

The people of the Zhu family came to Dongfan one after another, first Zhu Shugui, the king of Ningjing, came to Taiwan with Zhu Honghuan, the son of the king of Lu, and then Zhu Hemu, Zhu Yijun, Zhu Cixi and other Ming Dynasty clans came to Taiwan one after another. These people were warmly welcomed by Wang Xinyu and Zheng Cong.

However, there is one person who was sent to Dongfan from Qiongzhou, this person is named Wang Shiyuan, and his family was kidnapped from Shandong to Qiongzhou by the people of the Heaven and Earth Society. After Wang Xinyu and Zheng Cong seized Dongfan Island, Wang Shiyuan's family was sent to Dongfan again.

In fact, Wang Shiyuan's real name is Zhu Cihuan, and he is the real prince of Chongzhen! However, this secret is only known to Wang Xinyu.

Wang Shiyuan looked at the courtesy received by the Daming clan in Taiwan, but he didn't dare to show his identity. He knew that even if he jumped out at this time and said that he was Prince Chongzhen, no one would believe him. In addition, Wang Shiyuan is timid and afraid, and he just wants to live his life peacefully. At the beginning, when he was kidnapped by the Heaven and Earth Society, Wang Shiyuan was still worried, thinking that his identity as a prince was exposed. Later, when he saw that many people were kidnapped and taken to Qiongzhou like him, he thought it might be a coincidence.

After arriving in Qiongzhou, Wang Shiyuan diligently farmed and studied, and taught private schools for a living, and the family lived a good life, at least without worrying about food and clothing.

For Wang Shiyuan, Qiongzhou is simply a paradise, where everyone has land to plant, the taxes paid are not high, and the children of every family can afford to read. The towns here are clean and tidy, there are good hygiene, there are special medical centers for patients, the markets here are lively, the trade is fair, and the people live here. It was much better than the life of the common people under the rule of the Qing court.

But not long after living in Qiongzhou, Wang Shiyuan's family was taken to Dongfan Island by officers and soldiers. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he didn't dare to provoke these soldiers at all, so he took his family and went to Dongfan Island honestly.

Dongfan's life is not as good as Qiongzhou, but when Wang Shiyuan arrived here, his life was still much better than that of ordinary people, and the government gave him a piece of his own land, about thirty acres of land. It was enough for his family to farm, and he was invited to teach in a government-run academy, and he had a salary of ten taels of silver a month, and his life was quite good.

Wang Xinyu did not reveal Wang Shiyuan's identity, Yongli is still alive and well, if Zhu Cihuan is moved out again, it will inevitably cause infighting in the Ming army. Until the critical moment, Wang Shiyuan's card cannot be played randomly.

The development and construction here in Dongfan is also doing well. Although it is not as good as Qiongzhou, the Han people who moved here are all land-owned. There are also many people who have started farms and used sweet potato leaves to raise pigs, etc. Although there are no big landlords in Dongfan yet, it is inevitable. At the beginning of many dynasties, many large landowners were killed, the land became ownerless, and the government divided the land equally among the peasants. But why was the big landlord born later?

For the same peasants, there are industrious and lazy; There are those with high production technology and those with low production technology. Under the influence of various factors, the peasants who are also allocated land will be divided between the rich and the poor. Later. The poor sell their fields, and the rich buy them, so that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. In the Ming Dynasty, there was another important reason, that is, the meritorious people did not pay taxes, as a result, many yeoman farmers in order to covet a small bargain, put their land under the name of the meritorious person, over time, these yeoman farmers eventually became black households, and the land became the master.

Back in Dongfan, Wang Xinyu didn't go to see Wang Shiyuan, he just didn't know about it at all. At present, he is most concerned about the matter of the gun factory, and it is said that Dai Cang and his son are developing a new weapon called the Mini bullet rifle, but a few samples of that thing have been tried out, and all of them have failed.

In fact, the idea of this kind of Mini bomb was also proposed by Wang Xinyu himself at the beginning, and Dai Cang's father and son invested a lot of energy in this regard.

For ordinary front-loading rifled guns, the caliber of the bullet needs to match the caliber of the gun. Due to the increased rifling and increased friction of the barrel, it became more difficult to reload the bullets, and it was necessary to wrap the bullets in silk for reloading, and sometimes to hammer the bullets into the strip to knock the bullets in, which was even slower than the reloading speed of the bird's gun.

Front-loading rifled guns are expensive and consume huge manpower and material resources, but these are not problems, as long as Wang Xinyu is given enough time to develop, it is not a problem to replace all musketeers with front-loading rifled guns. However, this reloading is too slow and it is a hard wound, even if all the rifles are replaced, at best they can only shoot one round on the battlefield, and they will never have a chance to reload again. Shooting in platoon with rifled guns was not much more effective than flintlock pistols, but the price skyrocketed.

To solve the problem of the loading speed of the front-loading rifled gun, it was necessary to create a Mini bullet with a caliber slightly smaller than the barrel. Because the caliber of the bullet is slightly smaller than the barrel, the mini bullet is equipped with an extendable skirt at the tail of the bullet, and when the gunpowder gas expands, it just jams the rifling, so the reloading speed of the mini bullet is even faster than that of ordinary smoothbore guns!

However, Dai Cang's father and son conducted many experiments according to this idea, but they all failed.

Hearing that the tests of the Mini bullet failed one after another, Wang Xinyu decided to go to the gun factory to see what the problem was.

Dai Cang heard that Wang Xinyu was coming, and took his son to greet him in person. At this time, Dai Cang had already hung up the title of president of the Academy of Sciences of Nanyang Company, and Wang Xinyu asked him for the official position of a third-grade official from the imperial court. Although Emperor Yongli doesn't know any Academy of Sciences, whether it is the Qiongzhou Army or the Zheng Family Army, many official positions are self-appointed, and asking the emperor for a grade has already done enough work on face, and Yongli will not make things difficult in this regard at all.

"I've heard that this kind of bullet test always fails?" Wang Xinyu asked.

"Lord Wang, you can go with the lower officials to take a look." Dai Cang arched his hand.

Walking into the shooting range of the gun factory, Dai Zi walked out with a rifled gun on his back, stood in the firing position, first stood the gun on the ground, poured the gunpowder in the small pot into the barrel, and then took out a mini bullet and loaded it from the muzzle. Because the caliber of the bullet is smaller than the barrel, the loading is very smooth, and it is only a light top with a whole strip. Then Dai Zi turned the gun, pinched the medicine pot, poured the medicine into the medicine pool, covered the cover plate of the machine, and the filling was completed.

"That's fast! Faster than a flintlock pistol! Wang Xinyu praised.

"Lord Wang, you will know if you look at it again! If nothing else, this bullet is too early! It took a lot of effort to create a bullet like this. Dai Cang said.

"It's okay if bullets are hard to make! As long as you give this king enough time, you will definitely get more men and money! We are trying our best to build this kind of bullet, is ten years enough to make a large number of bullets? Wang Xinyu said.

"Lord Wang, don't worry, you can read it again and you'll know." Dai Cang replied.

Dai Zi picked up the rifled gun, aimed at the target 150 meters away, and pulled the trigger. I only heard a "bang" gunshot, the muzzle of the gun spewed fire, a puff of white smoke rose, and the bullet accurately hit the target, drilled into the bull's-eye, and exploded a cloud of sawdust, leaving a small bullet hole in the bull's-eye.

"Not bad! It's no less powerful than the rifled guns we use now, and it's so fast to reload! It's possible to mass-produce this kind of bullet! Use a pre-existing rifled gun and you're good to go! Wang Xinyu said approvingly.

But Dai Zi smiled, took out a scoop of water, and poured it on the barrel of the gun. I saw a puff of white vapor rising, and the temperature of the barrel of the gun decreased.

"Still so troublesome? And you have to use water to cool the barrel? Wang Xinyu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Dai Zi did not answer directly, but waited until the barrel was completely cooled, then put the whole strip into the barrel, cleaned it up a few times, and then turned the muzzle down, turned it around, and shook it vigorously, only to see a large pile of fine lead chips falling out of the muzzle. Then he slipped the strip in and cleaned it again. Clean up until the muzzle of the gun no longer falls out of debris.

"Why is it so troublesome? How long does it take to reload this once? Wang Xinyu shook his head.

Dai Zi explained: "Lord Wang, this skirt swells and jams the rifling, but the skirt is too thin after all, and when it rubs against the rifling, a large pile of debris will fall. And the debris gets heated and sticks to the rifling! It is cumbersome to clean up, and the barrel needs to be cooled down before the debris can be removed. This fires one shot, which is slower than the existing normal bullets! ”

"This bullet doesn't work! What if the skirt was made of iron? Wang Xinyu asked.

"We tried, not only is it difficult to expand, but it is also very worn rifling, and it can't shoot a few shots, and the bullets will fly randomly, so it's better than a smoothbore gun." Dai Zi replied.
