I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 4 Long-term Development
"Father, mother, the child has finally avenged you."
There was a wailing of joy and sorrow on the city wall, and some even cried and snotted.
Most of the people still in Jiading City have hatred against Li Chengdong.
Seeing this scene, Wu Changqing could only sigh in his heart, and scolded "this motherfucker's troubled world".
"Great victory, this is a great victory."
Li Shaobin's hands were trembling with excitement. He would never have imagined that he could achieve such a great victory. After killing nearly 300 enemies, only two unlucky ones were shot by bows and arrows. One of them was only slightly injured, and one person was killed in action.
This battle loss ratio is simply incredible.
Liu Hansan hid behind Wu Changqing, looking at Wu Changqing's back trembling. He found that he couldn't see through Wu Changqing at all, and when he recalled the various provocations he had just made to Wu Changqing, he felt a little scared for a while.
"Although it was a big victory, we can't be careless. Li Chengdong's main force hasn't come yet. He has tens of thousands of troops, and at least four or five thousand can be dispatched to attack Jiading. And we only have more than a hundred firearms. ,Far from enough."
Wu Changqing was not as happy as Li Shaobin, he thought more. He doesn't just want a win, he wants to keep winning.
Li Shaobin also calmed down when he heard the words, and said, "Can the commander buy more of this new type of bird gun?"
Wu Changqing shook his head. He now only has more than 4,800 resource points left. It is difficult for him to expand the site in a short time, so these resource points must be used sparingly.
Wu Changqing's actions silenced the people who were still very happy. Without the advantage of weapons, how could they resist thousands of troops.
"Sir, we can send someone to see King Lu, respect King Lu as orthodox, and ask King Lu to send troops for reinforcements. If King Lu knows that we have won such a great victory, he will definitely support it."
Liu Hansan wanted to make up for his mistakes, so he stood up and offered advice at this time.
From the perspective of this era, Liu Hansan's strategy is not bad. But Wu Changqing continued to shake his head and said, "King Lu is busy fighting for orthodoxy with Emperor Longwu at this time, so we shouldn't count on it, we have to rely on ourselves for everything."
As he spoke, Wu Changqing sighed, feeling more and more that Nan Ming was helpless.
In the face of national disasters, some people, for their own selfish interests, just created a king of Lu to fight for orthodoxy, aggravating the division of Nanming.
At this time, Emperor Longwu had been recognized by all parts of the south, but the eastern Zhejiang region, which was on the front line of the anti-Qing Dynasty, was controlled by King Lu, but he did not recognize the Longwu regime.
The two sides did not recognize each other, killed each other's messengers, and almost confronted each other. It can be said that all the energy of King Lu's regime was focused on internal struggles, and they never thought about how to fight against the Qing Dynasty.
So much so that when Li Chengdong went south, he was ruined all the way.
Of course, there are more absurd things than this in the history of Nanming. For example, the Nanming regime also tried to unite with the Qing army and destroy Li Zicheng first.
Liu Hansan didn't have the kind of prophet Wu Changqing had, and naturally he didn't know the urgency of King Lu's regime. Therefore, he was quite dissatisfied with Wu Changqing's persuasion.
"I'll find a way for weapons. Li Baihu, you first select some of the stronger warriors from the common people for training. We have too few soldiers."
Wu Changqing intends to build a matchlock gun. Although the manufacture of matchlock guns is already a backward technology, it is a waste to light up this kind of technology that others can do, but Wu Changqing can't care about that much.
Only by overcoming the immediate difficulties can we have the opportunity to develop. If the city is broken, then everything will be over, and it is useless to keep that technology point.
He also wanted to light up the technology of the flintlock gun, but the flintlock gun required 50,000 technology points, while the arquebus only required 5,000 technology points.
Liu Hansan was arranged to be vigilant, Li Shaobin trained soldiers, and Wu Changqing brought Wang Dafu to the city, ready to call the blacksmiths in the city.
Walking on the street, people were already standing on both sides of the street, and some people even knelt on the ground and shouted.
"Thanks to Mr. Wu for saving his life, and to Mr. Wu for protecting our 20,000 people."
"Master Wu is our reborn parents."
"General Wu is really Han Xin's reincarnation. With less, he wins more, and the world is invincible."
In the past few months, the Jiading people have been really suffering, and for the first time, tens of thousands of people have been slaughtered. However, the people were still inseparable from their homeland, and after the main force of the Qing army retreated, they returned to the city again.
As a result, the second massacre was even more ruthless, with 40,000 to 50,000 people slaughtered.
At this time, the Jiading people hated Li Chengdong more than the Eight Banners soldiers.
Looking at these people, Wu Changqing's heart is full of a sense of accomplishment. These were all saved by him. If it weren't for him, the 20,000 people in this city would have been slaughtered.
20,000 is not enough, I want to save more people, I want to change the world and turn this troubled world into a prosperous one.
Wu Changqing clenched his fists.
"Follow my fellow villagers, these are what I should do. I am also from Jiading, and my father also died at the hands of Li Chengdong. I swear to God, as long as I still have a breath, I will never let that beast Li Chengdong die. One more step into Jiading.”
Wu Changqing took advantage of the situation to win the hearts and minds of the people, and then said: "Qinggou's retreat at this time is only temporary, and they will definitely gather heavy troops to come back. I need everyone's assistance, I need warriors and blacksmiths..."
In a big mansion next to the street, a young girl with beautiful eyebrows was listening to Wu Changqing's speech.
A maid next to him said: "This Master Wu is really our Jiading hero. It is said that he is only sixteen years old this year, which is really amazing."
"If there are more Da Ming like President Wu
Bing such a capable person, how can we Jiading come to this. "The girl sighed. Although she had no close relatives killed in the chaos, her family's assets had been looted.
It didn't take long for thirteen blacksmiths and more than 20 people to come to the blacksmith shop in the city.
Then Wu Changqing lit up the manufacturing technology of arquebus, and a piece of knowledge poured into his mind, and there were even some pictures of making arquebus.
However, after receiving this knowledge, Wu Changqing had the urge to scold his mother.
Because the manufacturing process of this matchlock gun is too troublesome.
First, a cylindrical steel rod is used as a cold bone, and then the wrought iron is heated to red hot, and then the wrought iron is hammered with a hammer, and the softened wrought iron is continuously wrapped around the steel rod.
During this process, the steel rod in the wrought iron should be continuously pulled out to prevent the wrought iron and the steel rod from sticking together.
These forged hollow steel pipes are generally very short, and they need to be welded into a whole to form the barrel.
After the welding is tight, because the inside of the barrel is rough and uneven, the barrel must be drilled with a boring drill to smooth the inside.
Finally, the trigger, faucet, match rope, fire door cover and other mechanisms are assembled.
The whole process is extremely cumbersome and time-consuming. It is estimated that a blacksmith can only build one or two matchlock guns a month at most, which is of little help to Wu Changqing right now.
However, he has already learned all the lessons, and Wu Changqing will not waste it, and he will guide the blacksmiths on the forging method hand in hand.
This is also for long-term development, and he is unlikely to spend precious resource points to exchange weapons in the future. If you want to dominate the world, the soldiers who need to be equipped will have to be hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands. It is absolutely impossible to exchange resources. You can only master the technology first, and then build it slowly.
The dozen or so blacksmiths were all skilled, and after hearing Wu Changqing's narration, they basically understood everything, rolled up their sleeves and started to work.
In fact, this forging method is not difficult, but the process is cumbersome and time-consuming.
The arquebus couldn't be counted on, so Wu Changqing had no choice but to hit the grenade.
The grenade is also a weapon with little technical content. Get a metal box and put it in the ignition powder, put some nails and broken iron pieces in it, and then get a wire of fire.
The most critical part is gunpowder, the power of gunpowder is great, and the power of grenade is great.
At present, the gunpowder in Daming is still black powder, and its power is not even as good as the fireworks of later generations.
If you want to increase the power, you can only increase the dose of gunpowder. However, the increased dose of grenades would be too heavy for soldiers to throw.
In desperation, Wu Changqing could only spend another 10,000 technology points to light up the gunpowder manufacturing technology.
Moreover, this is not ordinary black powder, it is refined black powder, and the formula has reached the optimum. The black powder produced by this formula is several times more powerful than the black powder currently on the market.
A good thing about grenades is that they are easy to use.
Standing on the city wall, the people can use it, set it on fire and throw it under the city, it is definitely better than throwing stones and pouring oil.
That thing exploded into a large piece, and even if it didn't kill anyone, it could injure the opponent and make them lose their combat effectiveness.
"Make gunpowder according to this formula ratio."
Wu Changqing found a craftsman who specialized in making gunpowder and handed him a formula of gunpowder.
"General, this formula is wrong. It should be nitrosulfan and charcoal."
Li Xingba looked at the ratio of gunpowder on the paper and shook his head. In the formula given by Wu Changqing, saltpeter accounts for about 60%, and sulfur and charcoal each account for about 20%.
"Bold, what status do you have to be a general?"
Wang Dafu shouted angrily.
"The little man dare not."
Li Xingba quickly knelt down to admit his mistake, but he was not convinced. As a professional gunpowder craftsman, he began tossing gunpowder since he was a child, and he thought he knew more than those officials.
"You get up first. If it's right or not, you'll know by trying it first. If it's not right, continue to make it according to your original formula. If my formula is more powerful, then improve it immediately."
Wu Changqing actually understood Li Xingba's doubts very well.
If it is him, a non-professional person can't be convinced by pointing out his best field.
"General Xie is magnanimous."
Li Xingba breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time showed more respect to Wu Changqing. There are not many generals with a broad mind like Wu Changqing in this era.
