Chapter 135: Qing-Russia Talks
Russian firearms are indeed crude and bulky, but Maozi is not useless. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info If you follow the history of the original time and space, Russia's weapons are much better than those of the Qing army.
If it weren't for Wang Xinyu's crossing, the weapons of the Qing army were still in the Ming Dynasty, and the performance of the bird gun was much more unreliable, the range was short, it was easy to explode, and the accuracy was poor, compared with the heavy Russian Pishaw arquebus, it would be a grade behind, not to mention the flintlock pistol that the Russian army had begun to equip and the captured Danish rifle.
However, in this time and space, the Qing army also studied the captured weapons of the Ming army and used them to improve their own weapons. The firearms of the Qing army in this era were no worse than those of Russia, and compared with those of the Ming army, they could not imitate new explosives, rifled guns and swarming vans, and other weapons could be imitated. With the help of Nan Huairen, the Qing court had even copied the latest medicine tray flowering cannonball, which was already more advanced than the artillery technology of Western Europe.
"This kind of long-range marksman self-generated fire gun is a good thing. The Rakshasa people are a little heavier, if I can get the help of the Rakshasa craftsmen, I can make the Qing Dynasty imitate the Pseudo-Ming's long-range self-generated fire, it will definitely not be worse than the Pseudo-Ming. Kangxi looked at the Danish rifle and said to Nan Huairen with confidence.
Nan Huairen turned to Yakovlevich and asked, "Can you teach the Orientals the technique of rifles?" ”
"This time we came with Danish craftsmen, and we also brought a machine tool to make rifles, which can completely imitate this weapon. There is only one point, the rifle is too difficult to reload, the rate of fire is too slow, and it is not suitable for a large number of equipment. Moreover, the stragglers could not stop a large-scale cavalry charge at all, and it was ordinary musketeers who could stop the cavalry. Yakovlevich replied.
"So what is the main role of the skirmishers?" Nan Huairen asked again.
"Restrain the musketeers and archers!" Yakovlevich replied.
After Nan Huairen translated the Russian's words to Kangxi, Kangxi was overjoyed and said: "The lack of puppet Ming thieves is the cavalry, and it is completely by virtue of the sharpness of firearms!" If the Qing Dynasty had a long-range self-generated firearm that restrained firearms, it would definitely be able to defeat the puppet traitor! ”
Then Kangxi turned his head and asked Fan Yuxin: "You went to the Rakshasa Kingdom, but did you understand the matter of Heilongjiang clearly?" And the attack on the Korqin tribe, what did the Rakshasa people say about these things? ”
Fan Yuxin replied: "Moscow is too far away from Heilongjiang, and the emperor of the Rakshasa people does not know what is happening in Heilongjiang. They just said that they wanted to have an outlet to the sea, so an expedition was sent. The expedition of the Rakshasa people in Heilongjiang was not a regular Russian army, it was all a number of prisoners and splashes, plus wandering Cossack cavalry, with a few priests, it was the so-called expedition. Regarding the affairs of Heilongjiang, the Rakshasa Emperor did not know. But the Rakshasa Emperor also showed the map to the minions, hoping to get the area around the mouth of the Heilongjiang River. ”
Kangxi frowned slightly: "Obviously, the Rakshasa people want me to be outside the gate!" But outside the gate is the land of the Qing Dynasty! How can it be easily given to the Rakshasas? ”
Bumu Butai also said: "The land of Longxing outside the Guan, you must not just give it to the Rakshasa people to occupy!" The Rakshasa people helped me in the Qing Dynasty, and I wanted to put forward conditions, and other conditions were easy to say, but this Heilongjiang couldn't let it. ”
"Fan Aiqing, can you make your own decision and promise the Rakshasa people to give up Heilongjiang?" Kangxi suddenly looked at Fan Yuxin, and saw that he was covered in hair.
Fan Yuxin was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground and beat a thousand: "The slave doesn't dare!" The Rakshasa people hope to get the ministries of the Western Regions, and the slave agrees to the Rakshasa on his own initiative, and the slave is guilty of death! I hope that the emperor and Lafayette will be guilty. But in the land of Longxing outside the gate, the minions never dare to make their own claims! ”
Kangxi laughed coldly: "Fan Aiqing is loyal, I don't think you dare!" ”
But neither Bumu Butai nor Kangxi expected that their conversation with Fan Yuxin was translated by Nan Huairen to the Russians. Yakovlevich listened to Nan Huairen's words and frowned slightly: "It seems that the Tatars are still unwilling to give up an outlet to the sea to the empire. In order to gain access to the sea, the empire fought in the east and west in Europe, and how many brave soldiers were sacrificed! Now the empire wanted to have an outlet to the sea in the Far East. ”
Nan Huairen said: "Now that the puppet Ming thief is powerful, you might as well help the Qing Dynasty deal with the puppet thief first, and then talk about the conditions." With my understanding of the rulers of the Qing Kingdom, as long as they can maintain their rule in the Central Plains, I will agree to any conditions! By that time, the Qing Kingdom has already lost both sides of the battle with the Pseudo-Ming, and if you put forward conditions again, how dare they not agree? ”
"That's right!" Yakovlevich nodded, "To the Tatars, we can make concessions for the time being. But in the castles of the Far East, we can't evacuate! If the Qing people want to fight, let them fight. ”
"It's impossible for the Qing people to fight!" Nan Huairen said with a smile, "They have transferred all the elites outside the gate into the gate!" Those who are transferred to the outside of the gate are all vulnerable rabble! What do they use against your castle? ”
Just as a group of people in the Heart Cultivation Hall were discussing, someone outside came to report: "Jianghuai urgent report!" ”
After Kangxi read the emergency report, his face changed greatly: "Huang Ma, we have been defeated again in Jianghuai!" The thieves actually let the warship go ashore! Or a dragon warship! ”
Of course, Nan Huairen, who had made a steam car, knew what it was, and when he heard the battle report, Nan Huairen exclaimed: "I didn't expect the pseudo-Ming to develop the steam engine to this point!" Install cannons on steam engine railcars, and go to the battleships on land! The thieves extended north by railroad, and the land warships moved on the railway, making it difficult for both infantry and cavalry to approach. ”
There were also people in the Russian mission who could understand a few simple words of Chinese, and when they heard about the war report, Yakovlevich asked Nan Huairen: "Father, what land battleship did you just say?" ”
Nan Huairen replied: "A few years ago, I made a small car, which does not require human and animal power, and is driven by steam. I also once taught a Chinese student named Xue Fengzuo. Later, this person was captured by the puppet thief, but he didn't expect to build a large steam engine within a few years! ”
"Steam engines? What is it? The Russians were stunned.
"Let's talk about this matter at the inn where you stay, it's inconvenient to talk here." Nan Huairen Road.
Leaving the Forbidden City, Nan Huairen came to the inn where the Russians were staying.
"This is the vehicle towed by a steam engine!" Nan Huairen asked people to get pen and paper and drew a sketch for the Russians, "With the steam engine, there is no need for people and mules and horses to pull it. This kind of car walks like a fly on the tracks, and the deck is solid. If you have a gun on the car, it's a land warship! ”
"How fast can this car go? How much cargo can be transported? Yakovlevich was taken aback.
"You can travel more than 20 miles in an hour, you can transport hundreds of tons of cargo, or you can transport more than 500 people!" Nan Huairen replied.
