Please ask me to be the emperor

A few days later, when Wang Zheng came to the Prince of Qin's Mansion to give lectures to Zhang Shun and his wives, he actually brought his "wheel pot clock".

It is like a large wardrobe, with a clock on one side, a drum on the other, and a small wooden figure of Si Chen on the top.

As soon as the time came, the bells in the morning and the drums in the evening kept ringing, which immediately made Zhang Shun's wives extremely curious.

Only Zhang Shun was not satisfied, because there were only two hands on it, the hour hand and the minute hand, and the accuracy was not satisfactory to him at all, so Wang Zheng specially brought Zhang Shun a small hourglass.

Speaking of the hourglass, Zhang Shun thought it was an object with a glass ball with large ends and a thin middle sealed with fine sand, which could count down the time back and forth.

As a result, Wang Zheng unexpectedly brought him two small buckets, one of which had a scale on the inner wall and a funnel.

Wang Zheng told him: "If King Qin wants to time the time, he can just pour this bucket of fine sand into this bucket with a scale. I have measured every scale, and it is exactly one minute."

"Are there no such transparent glass products?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but remind him implicitly.

Wang Zheng couldn't help but darken his face when he heard this, "Oh, that, that's called a crystal engraving. In the early Ming Dynasty, a craftsman made it and presented it to Ming Taizu, but he smashed it in the name of 'wonderful skills'."

Smashed? You bastard!

Zhang Shun simply couldn’t complain. An old farmer is an old farmer. If you don’t want to use it yourself, you can give it to me!

Forget it, you can’t admonish those who have gone by, but you can still chase those who have come!

Zhang Shun quickly invited Wang Zheng to the podium to teach him etiquette.

Seeing how respectful Zhang Shun was, the other ladies immediately did not dare to neglect him and sat down one after another to listen to the master's lecture.

When Wang Zheng stood on the stage, he saw only Yingying Yanyan in the audience. He couldn't help but frowned and said to himself: "I first heard about King Qin's lustful reputation, and thought it was arranged by a good person. Now it seems that what he said is not true." Void."

"The marriage established by our Lord is between one husband and one wife, one man and one woman. It seems that I should always advise him from now on!"

The classes that day were very simple. Wang Zheng followed Zhang Shun’s suggestion and set up a literacy class, an arithmetic class and a Latina class.

It's just that these three simple courses are nothing to the girls who already have certain cultural knowledge.

Among them, the trio of Li Xiang, Liu Rushi and Chen Yuanyuan, who are well versed in music, not only have a good cultural foundation, but also learned Latin very quickly.

And Hong Niangzi and Jian'er, who have been in charge of logistics and equipment all year round, are very good at arithmetic, and no one can match them.

As for Zeng, Huang and Zhu, because they all received a good education, they can basically stand out from the crowd as soon as they get started.

However, women such as Li Sanniang, Gao Guiying, Ma Yingniang, and Wang Qiying, who are proficient in pen and ink, find it a bit difficult to learn.

The girls Zhuer, Baoqin, Shishu and Huamei around him had no choice but to behave well and secretly help them with their homework.

As for Zhang Shun, since his wives were all studying, he had no choice but to sleep in Cun Xin Palace.

Regarding this, Wang Zheng once wrote excitedly to his fellow believer Tang Ruowang: "The King of Qin seems to be very interested in the theory of Western instruments, and he also asked me to teach him and his wives and concubines Latino."

"It's just that King Qin is lustful and has many wives and concubines. He has greatly disobeyed my master's teachings. His sins are serious. I don't know if he can be forgiven by my lord."

"In addition, please send a telescope for the purpose of preaching to the King of Qin and his wives and concubines."

After three or five days of this, after Wang Zheng finished giving a lecture to Zhang Shun and others, he came down from the stage and reported: "I tell King Qin that Lumi has made 500 blunderbuss, and all the blunderbuss swords have been made. Please also ask the King of Qin." It’s better to send someone to check and accept it in time.”

"So fast?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but said in surprise after hearing this.

"Thanks to Mr. Zhang for his good iron training!" Wang Zheng couldn't help but humbly said after hearing this.

It turned out that Zhang Daojun, the governor of Zhang, was born in Yangcheng, Shanxi Province and had considerable research on smelting steel and casting. However, when it came to the application of mechanical machine tools and other tools in production, he was more than half way behind Wang Zheng.

This Wang Zheng had previously served as the Military Supervisor of Liaohai, and assisted Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, who was also a Catholic, in training troops, and he was well aware of the secrets.

So when he received Zhang Shun's order to manufacture the "Lumi Gun", he designed a hydraulic machine tool overnight based on the principle of gear transmission, specifically for drilling gun tubes.

The original method of manpower drill and control was only one inch per day.

Lumi's gun tube is four feet and five inches long. At this speed, it would take several skilled craftsmen forty-five days to drill out a qualified gun tube.

After switching to the hydraulic machine tool designed by Wang Zheng, an ordinary craftsman could drill out several blunderbuss tubes in one day, and the efficiency was far from the same. Therefore, 500 "Lumi blunderbuss" were made for Zhang Shun in a short time.

"What's the price?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

"Due to the use of hydraulic machine tools, the cost of each rod is only seven cents of silver, which is almost the same as the price of ordinary bird guns." Wang Zheng couldn't help but proudly said, "It is four cents and three cents cheaper than the price of Lumi guns in the past."

"However, because we had to manufacture twenty or thirty hydraulic machine tools, we spent an additional two hundred and seventy-eight taels of silver."

"It doesn't matter!" As a time traveler, Zhang Shun certainly understood the principle that "if you want to do your job well, you must first sharpen your tools." These two hundred and seventy-eight taels of silver were invested as fixed assets.

After Zhang Shun arranged the girls' homework, he followed Wang Zheng to go to Xu Quan to hand over the "Lumi Gun" and the gun knife.

Not long after, after these weapons were delivered to the school grounds, the soldiers who were being trained by Xu Quan to move into the "queue" were all excited.

Which soldier doesn't practice swords and guns, or cannons and cannons, but practices "turning left," "turning right," and "walking in unison" all day long?

Xu Quan was not polite to Wang Zheng. When he saw the "Lumi gun" arrived, he personally selected one. After loading the ammunition, he aimed a round at a target not far away.

After the deafening sound of gunfire and the thick smoke dissipated, Xu Quan went to the target and took a look. Although he did not hit the red heart, he hit the target at least.

"Not bad!" Xu Quan nodded and said, "I will let the soldiers test fire one by one in a while. Please don't blame me, Director Wang!"

"Of course, there is no reason to blame?" Wang Zheng was quite confident in the Lumi gun he supervised, and couldn't help but nodded and smiled.

Not to mention that Xu Quan had already arranged for his soldiers to start firing test shots.

That Zhang conveniently picked up a Rumi gun and a gun knife, looked at Xu Quan and said with a smile, "Do you know how to play?"

"Please give me some advice from King Shun!" Xu Quan's recent military training methods are basically based on the art of war written by Zhang Shun, so he is quite convinced by Zhang Shun.

"Watch it!" Zhang Shun held a gun in his left hand, with the muzzle tilted forward, and held a blunderbuss in his right hand, holding the handle back and saying, "I'll bring you an hourglass today. Later, you can estimate the arrival of the infantry and cavalry. No matter how much time is needed, be sure to order the soldiers to install their blunderbuss before the enemy charges in front of us."

"If you are defending, use the method of spears to form a formation, and use the gun as a spear; to charge, you need to practice gun skills, which are straight thrust, left blow, right blow, and handle strike!"

Zhang Shun explained while practicing: "I am not a martial artist, and the essentials of the movements are not very standard. You just go back and find someone who is good at spears to perfect them."

"The only method is to use projectiles for long-distance attacks and blunderbuss for close-range attacks!"

"I understand, King Qin!" Xu Quan couldn't help but nodded after hearing this. The more he thought about Zhang Shun's tactics, the more mysterious he became.

Previously, he only said that since King Shun gave him more fire-gun soldiers and fewer white-bladed soldiers, he was just treating him as an auxiliary soldier.

Now that I think about it carefully, this new type of fire gun battalion is capable of both long-range shooting and hand-to-hand combat. It seems to be as good as any current elite soldiers.

Wang Zheng understood clearly and couldn't help but be even more surprised and said: "King Qin's art of war is quite similar to the art of war of the Far West. It's just that when they are far away, they use blunderbuss, and when they are close, they use spears."

"Oh? How about the Far Western Art of War?" Zhang Shun couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

"In the past, when I was training troops with Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, his method..." Wang Zheng couldn't help but talk about it endlessly.

Zhang Shun was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but said: "This Wang Zheng is a talented man with both civil and military skills. Unfortunately, he is already nearly seventy years old. I have to exhaust all his thoughts and learnings. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a shame?"
