The next morning, Zhu Youcheng went to the East School Factory to mobilize troops.

When he besieged King Xin by An Bangyan in Guiyang, the Jinyiwei was angry. Who is King Xin? Like Zhu Youcheng, he is the founder and soul figure of the Jinyiwei Xizhenfusi. He heard that he was trapped in Guiyang by bandits, and the Jinyiwei soldiers demanded to go to war despite the fatigue of returning from the expedition.

Chen Guoqi was the governor of the Xizhen Fushi and was in charge of the Jinyiwei Army, so he naturally had to go to the expedition together. Wu Huping had been transferred from the Xizhen Fushi and was in charge of the Jinyiwei Navy. Should he go together?

It turned out that Zhu Youcheng was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, and his two favorite generals Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi also rose with the flow. Wu Huping was promoted to the Fufu Envoy of the Dongfu Envoy of the Jinyiwei, and Chen Guoqi was promoted to the Fufu Envoy of the Xifu Envoy of the Jinyiwei.

Zhu Youcheng asked, "Huping, should you follow me to rescue King Xin, or go to the East Town Fushi Office to train the navy?"

Wu Huping said without hesitation: "Although training the navy is urgent, if King Xin is surrounded, the officials will be distracted even when training. So, sir, I want to go with you to help Guiyang."

Zhu Youcheng was not very willing to leave at this critical moment, so he took the Five Thousand Jinyiwei, who had experienced the blood and fire tests in the Liaodong battlefield, to leave the capital and go to the western imperial village. After a series of hard battles, the Jinyiwei's muskets were seriously damaged and the ammunition was almost used, so he had to go back to replenish them.

When they arrived at the imperial village in western Jing, everyone was shocked. Qin Ke had turned the imperial village into a large construction site, with many ditches crisscrossing on the ground.

When Qin Ke saw Zhu Youcheng leading his troops to arrive, he walked over and saluted. Just as he was about to report the construction situation, Zhu Youcheng interrupted and said, "Qin Ke, don't doubt people. Don't doubt people. When you supervised the construction of the two courtyards, I said that the renovation of the Jingxi Huangzhuang is all given to you, even if you transform the Huangzhuang into the world's largest toilet, it will be up to you."

Qin Ke was moved and said, "Sir, I trust my subordinates so much. I will do my best to build a super royal village with super defensive capabilities for you. Now the foundation has been laid and it will be completed by June and July."

After saying that, he walked back to the construction site and directed the workers to do the work.

Zhu Youcheng asked Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi to take the soldiers to change the supplies, and then summoned Qiuqiu and Ling Mengchu to the study and handed over the human trafficking to these two people. Ling Mengchu was upright and sleek, and the two of them cooperated with each other and would be able to complete this task perfectly.

Of course, when Zhu Youcheng assigned tasks, he used high-sounding reasons. After suppressing one set of principles, the two of them could not resist it. They agreed to be human traffickers with confidence - uh, no, they were going to provide disaster relief and solve the marriage problems for the soldiers of the Jinyiwei.

After the arrangement of the largest human trafficking in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youcheng went to the arsenal.

When I heard that Lord Zhu was here, three people like black charcoal came out. Zhu Youcheng carefully identified it for a long time before he recognized that these three people were Li Datie, Sun Yuanhua and Song Yingxing.

"Why did you make this look like a ghost?"

Sun Yuanhua did not answer this question, pulled Zhu Youcheng into it, pointed to a large pile of steel pipes and said, "Sir, please see, this is my newly cast cannon."

These things look like a bunch of scattered steel pipes, with an inner diameter of about the size of a football. They are much thicker than the red-clothed cannon, but thinner than the red-clothed cannon, with threads at one end. It seems that these steel pipes can be connected to form a huge cannon barrel.

Zhu Youcheng said in surprise: "Nine, nine-section cannon!"

Sun Yuanhua was even more surprised than him and said, "Mr. Zhu is such a genius. Just one look, he revealed the name of Sun's newly cast cannon. However, Mr. Zhu, that was the name I named a month ago. Now the name of this thing is called the Nine-Second Steel Cannon. Lord Zhu, let's go out and try the cannon."

Sun Yuanhua commanded nine guards and carried the cannon to an open space behind the arsenal. The entire cannon weighed amazingly, but it was divided into nine sections, and ordinary soldiers could easily carry it. The soldiers aimed the Yin and Yang threads of the cannon barrel, rotated, and quickly assembled the cannon.

When the gunner loaded the ammunition, he heard a loud bang. The solid shell was hit two thousand steps away. He needed to use a telescope to see the landing point of the shell.

Zhu Youcheng was both surprised and happy. This was a powerful weapon for mountain combat. Guizhou has many mountains. Just find a mountain, set up a nine-section cannon, and use shells as big as football. The lethality is terrifying to think about it.

Sun Yuanhua was still chattering and said, "Last time I saw Lord Zhu taking the tiger squat cannon on the battlefield, I regretted that he had no sharp weapon to kill the enemy. The most powerful artillery in the Ming Dynasty was the red-clothed cannon, but unfortunately the cannon was too heavy, making it difficult to transfer. I often wondered whether I could divide the red-clothed cannon into nine or ten sections, so that each section would be much lighter and easier to transport. After the cannons were cut open, they were combined together, and the air tightness was much worse, and the barrel was easily disintegrated. I never thought of a solution.

Li raided me to drink. In order to burn the wine, he threw the whole Paradise wine into hot water. I was afraid that the hot water would enter the bottle and ruin the smell of the wine, so I started arguing with him. As a result, he picked up the wine and saw that there was no drop of water inside. It turned out that the threaded interface was waterproof, so the threaded interface must have a good airtightness. In this way, I made a nine-section cannon. It happened that Lord Song made good steel and cast the cannon with steel. It was lighter and much stronger than the previous nine-section cannon, and the caliber could be expanded."

Zhu Youcheng secretly admired that Sun Yuanhua is really a strange material. The threaded interface has good airtightness. Zhu Youcheng has known this principle for a long time. He used it to seal liquor, but Sun Yuanhua used it to cast cannons. This is simply better than the blue one. Zhu Youcheng couldn't help but sigh, this is the gap between people. If he hadn't had scientific literacy that was more than four hundred years ahead of this era, he would have been a novice in front of Sun Yuanhua.

"Mr. Sun, we are about to go to Guizhou. The nine steel cannons have helped the Jinyiwei very much. How many of them have been cast now?"

Sun Yuanhua's eyes widened and said, "Why don't you give me more time? Alas, I knew that the adults would go on a war again, even if I didn't sleep, I would have to cast a few more cannons. Now we only built two, and there were not enough shells. Because the caliber of this kind of cannon is very special, thicker than the tiger squat cannon and red-clothed cannon, the shells cannot be universal, so they have to be specially made. Now there are only 109 solid shells and 96 flowering cannons, which is still what I have won. Master Li said that the weapons produced by the arsenal must be approved by the adults and I will not let me cast them more. I said that the casting test was the result of this extra."

"205 shells are enough. The barbarians are just a group of frogs in the well who have never seen the world. With these shells, they are enough to scare them to run away."

Zhu Youcheng turned to Li Dawei again and asked, "How are the muskets and grenades here?"

Li Dawei replied proudly: "Sir, the villain has not had a rest in the past few months. After the adults transported a large amount of sulfur from Dengzhou, the gunpowder in the arsenal has been steadily increasing. In the past few months, the arsenal has produced a total of 5,000 grenades and 2,967 muskets."

"What? In just over four months, nearly three thousand muskets were born? You're not kidding."

"Sir, since Lord Song refined high-quality steel in the arsenal, the arsenal's muskets have been changed to casting, and the speed has been greatly improved. This is not enough iron. If the iron is enough, it will not be a problem to cast more."

"Okay, you can go to Cao Huachun to pay the money and buy more raw materials. For the Jinyiwei, the more muskets are, the better. Now the Jinyiwei has grown to 40,000 people, and at least 40,000 muskets are needed to build at least 40,000 muskets."

"Forty thousand people?" A black man spoke, revealing his white teeth. It turned out to be Song Yingxing who had not spoken just now. "Isn't the rated military source of the Xizhen Fushi? Why did he increase another 10,000?"

"You don't know that the emperor established the Jinyiwei Dongfu Division, and there were 10,000 naval troops. Both the East and West Fu Divisions were subject to the control of their own officials. The two were added together and exactly 40,000."

"The emperor is preparing to establish a navy? Haha, I said the emperor's holy light shines on the Daming Emperor, and it turns out that he has begun to pay attention to the power of the sea. With such a wise king, we should be very clear." Song Yingxing was overjoyed. As a scientist, he naturally knew the importance of the ocean.

Li Datie took a new type of musket in his hand and handed it to Zhu Youcheng.

Zhu Youcheng picked up the musket and felt that the musket was about the same as before.

Li Datiao: "Sir, although these muskets are cast, their caliber is exactly the same as the caliber of our original muskets, and the bullets can be universal."

Zhu Youcheng skillfully loaded a bullet and fired a gun into the open space. Sure enough, there was no difference between the feel, the speed of fire, the range of the new and old muskets.

Zhu Youcheng was surprised in the arsenal. With these weapons, can the rebels in Guizhou have a good end?

On February 26, the sixth year of Tianqi in Daming, Zhu Youcheng led 5,000 Jinyiwei, 200 medical staff, and 100 craftsmen, with 60 four-wheeled carriages, heading towards Guiyang in a mighty manner. They will set off from Beijing, pass by Beizhili (today's Hebei), Henan, Huguang (today's Hubei, Hunan), and then enter Guizhou. This is a long journey, a pre-promotion journey. Looking at the long road ahead, Zhu Youcheng couldn't help but worry. Can he get there before Anbangyan conquered Guiyang?

"A Jian, you have to hold on. Brother Cheng will be here soon." Zhu Youcheng said silently in his heart. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
