Ming Dynasty Emperor Chat Group: Zhu Qizhen Quits The Group At The Beginning

30: The sound of the wind was shocking, it was Zhu Gaoxun’s arrangement!

Where had Zhu Yuanzhang seen such a scene?

Although firearms existed in the Song Dynasty, such effective and convenient weapons did not appear until World War II.

This round of volleys shocked the officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty, but it also ignited the blood in Zhu Yuanzhang’s heart.

Which man doesn’t like playing with guns? What’s more, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was the emperor, almost instantly thought of what a terrible scene this weapon would cause on the battlefield.

“What is this thing?”

Zhu Yuanzhang tightly grasped Zhu Gaoxun’s arm. He had forgotten about Wei Zaode’s corruption.

He just wanted to find out the specific effectiveness of this thing.”Can this thing penetrate armor? What is the range? Is the manufacturing method complicated? Is it easy to use?”

On the side, Zhu Di also stared at Zhu Gaoxun with burning eyes, and the meaning was very clear: You kid, hurry up and say it, what Wei Zaode is not important now!

Zhu Di knew about firearms and attached great importance to them.

Because of this, Zhu Di could clearly realize the importance of this weapon.

At this time, the flintlock rifles of the Yongle Dynasty were in an extremely primitive stage. Although they were already at the world’s top level, they were definitely not comparable to the weapons of Zhu Gaoxun’s army.

In fact, in this case, how could the weapons of the Yongle Dynasty, such as the Fire Dragon Out of Water, be compared with Zhu Gaoxun’s Mauser.

The reward for the previous group task was only the black gunpowder that was perfected in later generations, which was enough to make Zhu Di excited.

After seeing the performance of Zhu Gaoxun’s Fengming, how could Zhu Di not be excited? Being able to restrain his temper at this time was already a strong character of Zhu Di.

If you say……Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were considering whether this weapon could be mass-produced and what its specific performance would be. However, the officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty and Zhu Youjian were dumbfounded. Was there a flintlock rifle that did not require ignition of gunpowder? Or……This is not a flintlock rifle at all?

Tiancheng’s sudden attack on the soldiers really frightened all the officials on the scene, and they were terrified.

If such a terrible weapon displeases Emperor Tiancheng, wouldn’t it be the end?

Some people were even more frightened and tried to escape, but were stopped by the soldiers. They urinated and defecated on the spot, and the scene was very ugly.

The people on the side were already dumbfounded and dumbfounded.

When these people reacted, there was a lot of noise.

“What kind of weapon is this? It’s so terrifying! I’ve never seen it before!”

“Stupid! This thing is called a flintlock rifle. The army has already been equipped with it, but we civilians just don’t know about it.”

“It was so horrible. In an instant, it took someone’s life. There was really no room for resistance…….”

“The battlefield today is no longer the same as before. To fight, you must first go through the gates of the King of Hell. The days are getting more and more miserable.”

“……”

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were surprised, all officials were terrified, and the people were dumbfounded. Zhu Gao was very satisfied with the result. He did this on purpose to scare the officials of the Chongzhen Dynasty…….The following things can be carried out smoothly.

Even some ideas can be tentatively proposed to the old man.

After all, the population of the Ming Dynasty royal family at this time is in the tens of thousands.

The people of the Ming Dynasty have supported them for more than two hundred years, and it is time for these guys to pay their debts….

The thought flashed through his mind, and Zhu Gaoxun looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di with a smile and said,”Grandpa Emperor, father, I have already prepared for what you are concerned about. After this matter is resolved, how about we find a place to talk about it in detail?”

Hearing Zhu Gaoxun say this, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di looked at each other and agreed with Zhu Gaoxun’s statement.

From Zhu Gaoxun’s words, the two realized that this thing might not be simple.

What they wanted was not just a few guns from Zhu Gaoxun, but the specific manufacturing method.

Obviously, Zhu Gaoxun also understood what they meant, but there might be a lot of things involved, and it would be difficult to explain it all at once.

“”Okay, let’s do as you say, Gao Xun!” Zhu Yuanzhang said cheerfully,”Don’t worry, we won’t treat you unfairly, it’s how much it should be.” Zhu

Di, who was still thinking about getting something for free, had to express his opinion after hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said,”Me too, although I’m your father, I definitely won’t take your things for free!”

While the two were talking, Zhu Youjian could only watch helplessly.

It’s not that he didn’t want it, but he was embarrassed.

An empty pocket not only stumps a hero, but also the ruler of a country.

After reaching a consensus, Zhu Gao Xun did not delay any longer, and immediately signaled to Wang Chengen with his eyes, who immediately took the imperial edict drafted by Zhu Gao Xun and began to announce to the people.

“The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, hereby proclaims: Wei Zaode, Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, Minister of War and Minister of Works, has no desire to serve the country, is passive and lazy in his duties, and is corrupt and accepts bribes!”

“He is not like a minister, his crimes are too numerous to list…….I am heartbroken to see the country in this national crisis, but I will never let any corrupt official go, and I will never wrongly accuse a good person!”

“I have decided to confiscate his property and execute his entire clan as a warning to others!”

The first part is in classical Chinese, but the latter part is in plain language…….The reason for this is that when Zhu Gaoyi made his oral edict, he took the people into consideration and suddenly changed his style.

The people heard the plain words clearly. Wei Zaode had a bad reputation in the eyes of the people, but no one dared to complain because of his power.

Now when they heard that Wei Zaode was punished, the people cheered in unison.

“The emperor is a good emperor! It is the officials below who do not do their jobs that lead to the increasingly declining Ming Dynasty!”

“No…In Shuntian Prefecture, as long as there is an official in a family, the family will be arrogant and domineering. Now they have finally received their retribution!”

“I heard that the servant of Wei Zaode’s family was very arrogant. He took advantage of Wei Zaode’s position as the Prime Minister and forcibly snatched his wife…….I don’t know if the victim has come today.”

“Here he comes! I know that kid Zhao. I saw him just now. Where is he?”

“……”

When the people were talking about it, a young man suddenly rushed towards Zhu Gaoxun. The soldiers beside him suddenly became nervous and pointed their guns at the young man.

Zhu Gaoxun stopped the man in time and looked at the young man kneeling in front of him and said,”Why are you looking for me? What grievances have you made?”

The latter was allowed to start talking, and he was talking about how Wei Zaode’s family bullied people and forced them to death. As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him started to denounce Wei Zaode.

“High……”Zhu Yuanzhang approached Zhu Gaoxun and whispered,”Did you arrange this?”

“Yes and no.”

What the young man said was indeed true. But this person was indeed secretly found by Zhu Gaoxun.

The purpose was to not leave any handle for the civil officials and temporarily stabilize the people’s hearts.

In fact, Zhu Gaoxun could learn from Li Zicheng and torture the officials of Shuntian Prefecture, but this would not work. It was too simple and crude, and there would be endless troubles.

Zhu Gaoxun did not want to leave a mess for his son.

“This hand……”Zhu Yuanzhang praised:”Very good!”

As they were all emperors, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understood the significance of doing this.

Look at the people watching nearby. Even if Wei Zaode didn’t die, he would have to suffer a lot!

More importantly, doing this would also make it impeccable for future generations!
