In the minds of ordinary people, manpower is not comparable to the power of weapons, and the power of weapons is not comparable to that of firearms.
In this case, it is like that a person throws a rock not as far as a feather arrow shoots, and a feather arrow does not fly as far as a lead bullet fired by a deflagration of gunpowder.
However, the current firearms have a shortcoming.
That is, it would be very troublesome to install and fire the gun. When the match cord ignites the gunpowder in the barrel, the lead bullet will fly out, but reloading will be even more troublesome.
Because at this time, you need to clean the inside of the barrel.
There will be residues of gunpowder in the barrel. If it is not cleaned up and reloaded with gunpowder, it will explode without anyone igniting it, and it will hurt people.
So in terms of firing frequency, the firearms nowadays are definitely not better than bows and arrows.
But this time, I just encountered a strange species like Shang Zhen, who can shoot a hundred steps of stones, and can also use the method of continuous shooting.
As a result, Shang Zhen's shooting frequency was higher than that of Han Wenmu with a shotgun, but he was on par with Han Wenmu in terms of effective shooting range.
This is because Shang Zhen was using stones. If he switched to feather arrows, he could shoot more than two hundred steps with Shang Zhen's arm, that would definitely not be a problem.
In this way, Shang Zhen surprised a group of people with his slingshot skills.
Naturally, the goal of the Shang Zhen was achieved. The side effects that they had stole the old Han's copper coins and tied the sixth uncle of Han Wenmu were directly offset.
When the guys on the ship saw the business shock again, the expression of admiration was already beyond words.
Even Han Wenmu's sixth uncle, Han Laoliu, no longer hated Shang Zhen and the others, but allowed Han Wenmu to take Shang Zhen to look at his own navigation map.
At the same time, Xitang and Bai Yuchuan have also become face-saving. Everyone shares weal and woe, and Shang Zhen performed so well, so naturally the two of them are also proud.
Another day at sea.
In the cabin, Xitang couldn't help but smile when he saw Han Wenmu playing with another firecracker, "You firecracker is also a good thing, but it's not as far as the stone from my bench!
Besides, you think you have been babbling for a long time, and you have to reinstall it after a shot of the lead. It’s too much trouble! "
Xitang said so, of course, there is a show of psychology, in fact, it is a change of exaggeration.
Since Shang Zhen revealed that hand, the guy on the boat saw him say admiration and compliments, and now he is still intoxicated.
Shang Zhen, who was on the nautical chart by the side, pretended not to listen. Xitang was just like that, he had long been used to it.
But Han Wenmu, who was lightly arranging the barrel of a gun with a cleaning rod, looked up at Xitang and said, "I can't use this firecracker to fight accurately. That doesn't mean that other firearms are not powerful."
"How powerful can other firearms be?" Hearing Han Wenmu's words, Xitang asked curiously but in disbelief, and Shang Zhen, who was immersed in the picture and looked up, also raised his head.
"That's a lot, I've seen a limited number of things, but I heard that there are many firearms in the army.
You must have never seen those from the northwest.
Let me talk to you. "Han Wenmu said, and then he reported a series of nouns, "Gunsling, one-eyed, three-eyed, ten-eyed, multi-eyed, bird's mouth, bowl mouth, spray canister, rumpy gun , Folang machine guns, switch electric guns, Lianzi guns, five thunder god machine guns, flying god fire poison dragon spear.
There are about ten more, I can’t remember either.
Do you think it’s great to shoot a stone on your bench for a hundred steps? You compare the slingshot with the above, do you still think you can win with confidence? "
When Han Wenmu first started talking, Xitang was still listening quietly, but when Han Wenmu finished speaking, he was dumbfounded.
These nouns reported by Han Wenmu are more like a kind of cross-talk in cross talk, or the name of a dish.
Shang Zhen and Xitang have always been together, and their knowledge is the same.
It's Shang Zhen's miscellaneous reading, how can there be so many military terms in his teacher's collection
"Then you said those Dongying people also have these firearms?" After a moment of silence, Shang Zhen asked Han Wenmu.
"I heard the uncle and the uncles say that the Dongying people have shotguns, which are similar to the one I use today.
As for whether they have any other firearms, I really don't know. "Han Wenmu replied.
"Oh." Shang Zhen nodded and became thoughtful again.
Now Shang Zhen has determined what happened in his previous life.
In his previous life, he was mortal enemies with those Yingren, that is, those dwarfs in his dreams. In this life, he did not want to talk to those people.
What's more, Qi Pingbo and Han Wenmu have already mentioned to him that those Dongying people are fighting and looting on the southeast coast.
Shang Zhen, who already knew that the non-my race must have different minds, naturally had no good impressions of Dongying people.
In the books of the Han people, there is the term "Yidi" for ethnic minorities.
Di refers to the ethnic minorities in the northwest, in fact, it refers to the Hu people.
The Yi people refer to the ethnic minorities in the East. In the understanding of Shang Zhen, the Dongying people are also Japanese, and that is the most authentic Yi people.
After Shang Zhen and the others got on the ship, they didn't ask Han Wenmu why Jin Yiwei would hunt down their old Han family.
Shang Zhen was just such a person from the northwest of Han, and he didn't care much about politics.
Therefore, Han Wenmu's smuggling of copper coins overseas is not a matter for him.
However, he was very concerned about the affairs between the Han people and the Yidi people.
The Hu people were in the north of Handi, and they went to Handi to rob livestock and kill people. This is what he saw with his own eyes.
The barbarians, that is, the Japanese, live on the Japanese islands on the other side of the sea. Why do they go to the Han to burn, kill, and looting
Not to mention in this life, he had enemies with the Japanese in the previous life!
However, Shang Zhen has already asked Han Wenmu, their current three-ship fleet is not going to Japan, but to Zhejiang.
This is very important. Shang Zhen just wanted to take a boat southbound. He was not ready to take a smuggling boat to Japan.
Besides, what are you going to do in Japan? I was besieged to death by the Japanese in my previous life, so in this life I have to go alone to fight the Japanese
I'm not going!
Now the Japanese are looting and killing people along the southeast coast, so why not kill more Japanese first if they have their own partners in Handi
"If you are interested in firearms, I can show you a book." At this moment, Han Wenmu said, seeing Shang Zhen in deep thought.
"Do you have such a book?" Shang asked in shock.
"Of course, I asked them to recite hundreds of books for me when I went out this time! Hey, because of this, I also let Sixth Uncle give training." Han Wenmu said embarrassedly.
"Why did you let your uncle give training?" Xitang asked curiously.
"That's not because Jin Yiwei came when we were about to board the ship.
Some people are carrying copper coins, and some are carrying my books. Hundreds of them, dead heavy, divided into several sacks. "Han Yanyu answered.
"I see, haha, the person carrying your book bag must have boarded the ship first, and as a result some of the money bag was snatched by Jin Yiwei!" Xitang has already guessed the reason.
"Yes, hehe." Han Wenmu was even more embarrassed.
"You're a prodigal! You don't want that money but you have to ask for a book! Your uncle told you to do it too!" Xitang said.
In the concept of wedding candy, money is the best thing. How can you leave money if you eat, wear, shelter, fight and kill
"That's different. I think books are more important than money.
For example, in my books about firearms, if you understand the study of firearms, then you will get better at wars. "Han Wenmu disagrees with Shang Zhen's view.
While Xitang was trying to say something, Shang Zhen also said, "If you want me, I will choose a book too!"
Shang Zhen spoke, but Kexitang still felt that money was important, so he said with an aura: "Two prodigals."
But after he finished speaking, he changed his words again. He pointed to Shang Zhen and said: "You are not a prodigal, and there is nothing to lose if you are poor!"
Shang Zhen glanced at Xitang and didn't speak any more, but turned his head and said to Han Wenmu: "Take me to read your book!"
"Okay, okay!" Han Wenmuxi said, he now finds that Shang Zhen is getting more and more of his temper.
