Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

Zhu Youxiao made up his mind and told Zhang Weixian.

"Let them bring the person here, I will test him first!"

"If you can hold on, I will give you another chance."

"If not, let them continue to be their playboys. I don't want to keep useless people here!"

"Also, don't just sit there doing nothing. Lu Xiangsheng is in charge of the Shenji Battalion, so the Fifth Army Battalion will be handed over to you."

"As for the three thousand battalions, I have other candidates."

Zhang Weixian was overjoyed. This result was better than he expected. Not only did it solve the problem of the nobles, but he also got himself a position in charge of the Fifth Army Battalion. It was truly a pleasant surprise!

"My lord, thank you for your kindness!"

After saluting again, he stood up, untied the cane on his body, turned around and strode out of the camp.

He acted quickly and brought several hundred people to report in that afternoon.

These boys from noble families seemed to have been beaten up at home. When they appeared in front of Zhu Youxiao, almost all of them had bruised faces and noses.

The youngest among these people was only in his early teens, not much older than Li Dingguo.

But the oldest ones are only around 30 years old.

Zhu Youxiao stood on the parade ground, looked at these guys, and curled his lips in disdain.

"A bunch of trash!"

"Shh!"

The reactions of the sons of nobles were different; some lowered their heads, while others raised their heads with a look of defiance on their faces.

"You, what's your name, who are you from?!"

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao pointed at one of them.

The man walked out of the crowd neither servile nor arrogant, and said with a folded hand: "Your Majesty, my name is Deng Dashan, and my father is Weiguogong Deng Shaoyu."

Zhu Youxiao looked at him with a playful expression: "Are you dissatisfied?"

"Dissatisfied!"

"why?"

"No matter what, I am a descendant of nobles and have read some military books. How can I be like these common people? Your Majesty wants me to start from the ranks of soldiers?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Youxiao's expression suddenly became gloomy and he turned to look at Li Dingguo.

"Boy, can you do it?"

Li Dingguo clenched his right fist, rubbed his thumb under his nose, and snorted coldly.

"Men, you can't say no. You taught me that!"

Zhu Youxiao pointed at Deng Dashan and said, "Then I'll leave this guy to you!"

Li Dingguo immediately turned around and walked towards Deng Dashan. After looking at him for a while, he actually put his left hand behind his back.

"Big guy, let me give you a hand!"

"Come on, damn!"

Deng Dashan: ???

Seeing that Zhu Youxiao actually sent such a little brat to challenge him, he immediately felt greatly insulted!

"Your Majesty, a soldier can be killed but not humiliated!"

"It's not fair for me to win against him!"

After saying that, he pointed at Lu Xiangsheng.

"The younger one wants to compete with him!"

Lu Xiangsheng just glanced at him and stood aside with his arms folded, watching the joke.

As expected, Li Dingguo was still a child at heart. When he saw that he was being looked down upon, he just shouted loudly.

"You want to fuck me? You have to get past me first! Watch me!"

After saying that, he swung his fist towards Deng Dashan.

Deng Dashan didn't take him seriously at all, and even stretched out his hand impatiently and blocked it casually.

But at this moment, his face suddenly became extremely shocked.

"boom!"

A dull sound came from the fists and arms of the two men.

Deng Dashan involuntarily took several steps back.

"This is impossible!"

He simply couldn't imagine that a little kid whose height was not even as high as his chest could have such tremendous strength!

"Nothing is impossible!"

Li Dingguo took advantage of the victory and quickly came to Deng Dashan and kicked him hard on the right thigh.

Deng Dashan, who had already lost his balance, was knocked to the ground.

"Dashan, get up and kill him!"

"Lock his throat, don't let him ride on you!"

"Fuck, why don't you block it......"

"Hiss...hurry up and put the eye in!"

"........."

A group of noble children nearby couldn't help but shout when they saw Deng Dashan being knocked down so quickly.

At this moment, Zhu Youxiao walked up to the two of them, squatted down, stared into Deng Dashan's eyes and said.

"If you defeat him, I'll make you a general. If you lose, you can only be a cook!"

"Ah...Go to hell!"

Deng Dashan was irritated, his eyes turned red, and he suddenly exerted force to push Li Dingguo off his body.

Li Dingguo rolled a few times like a monkey after landing, leaving Deng Dashan, who was chasing him, empty-handed.

Then he somersaulted up and kicked Deng Dashan hard in the butt.

"Ouch..."

Deng Dashan jumped three feet high on the spot in an instant, stretched out his hands behind his back to cover his anus, and his face was distorted to the extreme.

Li Dingguo clenched his fist again, rubbed his thumb under his nose, hooked his hand towards him and asked, "Are you still fighting?"

"No, no, no more fighting..."

Deng Dashan is a playboy, but he is not a fool!

I don’t know what the guy opposite me has eaten. Not only is his strength comparable to mine, but his speed and skills are also far superior to mine!

You have to know that during the whole fight just now, Li Dingguo didn't even use his left hand behind his back!

If you continue to fight, you will only make yourself look even more embarrassed!

But Li Dingguo had no intention of letting him go. He stood with his arms folded, imitating Lu Xiangsheng, and said calmly.

"This is the military, if I just fight with you, I'll be considered bullying you!"

"I haven't learned horse archery yet, but do you dare to compete with me in musketry?"

Deng Dashan was stunned. As far as he knew, these new recruits had only been training for about half a month. Even if they could touch a musket, they would only have practiced for ten days at most!

But I am different. Every spring when flowers bloom, I will team up with other sons of nobles to go hunting, and the weapon I use most is the musket!

Whether it is a matchlock gun, a three-barreled gun, or the flintlock rifle that was just made by the Ministry of Industry in recent years, they are all familiar!

Li Dingguo's proposal gave him a glimmer of hope, and he couldn't help but look at Zhu Youxiao.

But Zhu Youxiao nodded slightly, still with a smile on his face.

"Don't look at me! As long as you can win with the musket, I will still reward you with the title of lieutenant general!"

Chapter 40 These three hundred people are enough to fight against an army of thirty thousand!

Then someone brought two flintlock rifles and set up a target in the distance.

Li Dingguo picked up a flintlock rifle and threw the other one to Deng Dashan.

"Come here, this is a reward from His Majesty. If you can win, I will wash your socks for a month!"

"If you lose, you have to wash for me for a month! Do you dare?"

"What's there to be afraid of?"

Deng Dashan, with a pair of panda eyes, took the gun and prepared himself skillfully.

At this time, the barrel had not yet been chambered and still used the front-loading method.

Fixed-charge gunpowder has already appeared. Before shooting, you need to tear the oil paper wrapping the gunpowder, pour the gunpowder into the barrel, compact it with a cleaning rod, then put the bullet in and compact it again.

After that, a small amount of gunpowder should be poured into the medicine pool to ignite the fire.

After they did all this, they walked towards the target.

The accuracy of the smoothbore rifle is very impressive. Where the bullet will hit from fifty meters away depends entirely on luck.

Therefore, Deng Dashan stopped when he was twenty meters in front of the target, but Li Dingguo stopped at about thirty meters.

When Deng Dashan stopped, he saw that Li Dingguo was about ten meters behind him. His originally confident expression suddenly froze on his face.

After being stunned for a moment, he turned around decisively and returned to the same position as Li Dingguo.

He is not afraid of missing the target!

He was afraid that if he stood in front, Li Dingguo would not be able to hit him!

Damn it, if I can't hit the target, I can only be a soldier at best. But if Li Dingguo shoots me from behind...

Isn't that nonsense?

Lu Xiangsheng did not interfere too much with their actions. After asking if they were ready, he gave the order to shoot.

When the trigger is pulled, the hammer on the flintlock rifle carries the flint and hits the hammer above the powder pool. The sparks produced by the strike fall into the powder pool and ignite the gunpowder inside. The flame then ignites the gunpowder inside the barrel through the fire transfer hole.

With a "bang", the bullet was pushed out of the gun barrel and flew towards the target.

"Pfft, puff!"

Each of them fired a shot, and the sound of two hits was heard on the target.

A soldier quickly ran over to check the situation.

"Li Dingguo, hit the bull's eye!"

"Young Master Deng, you hit the target, but missed it by two inches!"

Deng Dashan's father is a duke, and he is the eldest son and future heir, so it is natural for him to be called the young master.

When the result came out, those sons of military honors all lowered their heads.

They are all in the same circle, and they all know each other's level.

Seeing that Deng Dashan was defeated, he knew that things wouldn't be any better if he took the field.

They are good at shooting, but not this kind of...

It was only then that Zhu Youxiao spoke again. He looked at everyone and shouted coldly, "Now, who has any objections?"

"Is it remarkable that you are the son of a noble family?"

These words were unpleasant to hear, and they stabbed Deng Dashan and others like a knife in the heart.

They wanted to refute, but they couldn't find a decent reason.

If you lose, you lose!

What’s more, he was defeated by a young boy who was not even ten years old!
