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

Wang Tiqian rushed over with a large number of guards. When he saw Zhu Youxiao coming towards him, he didn't even bother to salute and hurriedly shouted to protect the emperor.

The guards rushed forward and protected Zhu Youxiao firmly in the middle.

Only then did Zhu Youxiao breathe a sigh of relief and grabbed Wang Tiqian and asked.

"Do you know who it is?"

Wang Tiqian replied breathlessly: "Your Majesty, it's Hou Guoxing and Ke Guangxian!"

"They recruited a group of military heroes and scumbags from the Imperial Horse Administration, and under the pretext of clearing the imperial court, they joined forces to open the Bei'an Gate!"

"The incident happened suddenly, and the palace was completely unprepared. The Imperial Household Department and the Imperial Internal Affairs Department have been trying their best to stop it, but they are no match for them!"

"Some guards have already rushed to Xuanwu Gate to resist. Your Majesty, please follow me out of the palace and take shelter in the Shenji Camp!"

Zhu Youxiao became furious upon hearing this.

Hou Guoxing is Ke Shi’s son, and Ke Guangxian is Ke Shi’s younger brother!

These two bastards!

Bullshit about clearing the emperor’s side!

This is naked rebellion!

"Go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity!"

He rejected Wang Tiqian's proposal without even giving it any thought.

An emperor was driven out of the palace. What kind of thing is this?

The team rushed to the Qianqing Palace in a mighty manner, and Zhu Youxiao immediately walked towards the box that Xu Guangqi had sent.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be what I asked him to do some time ago.

There were two boxes in total. After opening one of them, it was found to be full of scattered parts wrapped in oil paper.

When I opened another one, I saw a yellow bullet!

Copper shell bullet!

However, these bullets are a little special. They are an astonishing 10 centimeters long, and there is a 4-centimeter-deep hole at the tail. A layer of iron filings and gunpowder is stuck on the wall of the hole. They are fired in the same way as mortars!

The gun barrel is about 20 centimeters long. It is no longer hammered out by a blacksmith, but is formed in one go using a drill press. Perhaps in order to ensure the reliability of the gun barrel, Xu Guangqi was so crazy that he made the barrel wall one centimeter thick!

Zhu Youxiao took the parts out of the oil paper bag one by one and placed them on the imperial desk. Seeing this, Wang Tiqian hurried over to help.

In just three or five minutes, the first revolver of the Ming Dynasty was formed in his hands!

Chapter 53: Your Majesty, Your Gun is So Unique

Wang Tiqian stood nearby, watching Zhu Youxiao putting the parts together like he was playing with a Luban lock, and he became extremely anxious.

But he didn't dare to urge him directly, so he had to ask in a roundabout way: "Your Majesty, what is this?"

Zhu Youxiao smiled slightly: "This? This is called a gun! A revolver, a type of musket."

After saying that, he grabbed a handful of bullets from another box and loaded them into the revolver one by one.

Eight bullets were loaded, and with a shake of the hand, the cylinder returned to its original position with a click.

Wang Tiqian was stunned: "Your Majesty, your gun is so unique!"

Zhu Youxiao did not answer him immediately. Instead, he assembled the second gun, inserted it into his left and right waist respectively, and buried his head in the ammunition box to search.

After a while, eight unique bullets were found in the compartment at the bottom of the box!

There are holes on the warheads of these eight bullets, and the structure inside the holes is somewhat similar to a whistle.

After filling his arms with bullets, he walked out of the hall with the eight bullets.

As he walked, he pulled out the empty gun from his waist and stuffed the eight bullets into the revolver.

When he reached the palace gate, he raised his hand to the sky and suddenly pulled the trigger.

First there was a bang, the bullet flew out of the gun, and then a sharp whistle rose into the air.

There was plenty of gunpowder in the bullet, and the whistling sound produced by the whistle-like bullet after it left the barrel pierced the quiet night sky of Beijing.

At this moment, almost all the people in the city heard the scream, and some of the guard dogs in people's homes also began to bark frantically.

Zhu Youxiao shook his arms which were numb from the shock and raised his gun to the sky again.

"boom!"

"biu............."

Another whistle bullet was fired!

Near the East Factory, Li Dingguo had just fallen asleep. When he heard the whistle, he started up from his bed.

After sitting quietly for a while, another sharp roar came from outside.

He quickly got out of bed and woke up the soldiers in the same room.

"Wang Qianli, get up quickly, don't fall asleep!"

The soldier he called Wang Qianli was not awakened by the sharp whistle, but after hearing his call, he sat up from the bed instantly, looked at Li Dingguo with a resentful face and said: "What are you doing? Are you going to practice a night attack again?"

Li Dingguo pointed outside with a serious expression: "Night raid, it seems something happened in the palace!"

At this moment, another sharp roar reached his ears.

Wang Qianli finally reacted and quickly got out of bed. Together with Li Dingguo, he dragged everyone else out of bed.

When everyone was woken up, Li Dingguo held a musket taller than him in one hand and put the other hand on his waist, looking at the other soldiers.

"My fellow men, there was a howling sound in the palace late at night. Something must have happened. Do you dare to follow me to take a look?"

A group of men in their teens and twenties were called "little ones" by a seven-year-old kid. This scene was extremely weird.

But the soldiers didn't think there was anything wrong.

In terms of relationship, he was sent to the Shenjiying by the emperor.

In terms of skills, no one present could match him.

The army is such a magical place. Whoever has the ability is the boss!

Wang Qianli frowned when he heard this.

"Young man, this is not good. You are not allowed to approach the palace wall without permission. Besides, it's late at night. Will you be mistaken for a rioter and be captured and chopped off?"

Others nodded.

"That's right. If someone punishes me for not obeying the curfew, that would be the lightest punishment. But if someone thinks I'm..."

"Don't talk about useless things, come here!"

Li Dingguo interrupted the man, reached into his crotch and took out a cloth bag, then asked everyone mysteriously.

"Do you know what this is called?"

"What?"

Everyone looked confused. After taking a closer look, they quickly covered their noses.

They train every day but cannot take a bath every day. This cloth bag was taken out by Li Dingguo from his crotch, so you can imagine how strong the smell is!

Li Dingguo curled his lips in disdain at them: "A bunch of uneducated roughnecks, who have never even heard of the imperial edict!"

He shook his head and opened the cloth bag, revealing a piece of bright yellow silk!

When the silk was opened again, eight small words were clearly written on it.

"Blow the whistle at eight, and enter the palace to serve the king!"

At the same time, there are two precious seals on these eight small characters!

One side is Zhu Youxiao’s private seal, and the other side is the famous imperial seal!

"Where did this come from?"

These soldiers are learning about mortars here, and they have to learn arithmetic, and the most basic reading and literacy are indispensable!

They may not be able to understand the words on the seal, but they can see those eight small words clearly!

Li Dingguo put the silk into his arms and said calmly: "The emperor said that there will be trouble in the city recently. If it gets out of hand, there will probably be a rebellion!"

"So, he gave this thing to me half a month ago!"

"The Emperor also said that the current Shenjiying is the one he trusts the most, and we three hundred people are more trusted by him than anyone else!"

"Now, do you dare to go to the palace with me?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qianli picked up his musket and ran out the door, turning back and cursing at Li Dingguo.

"Fuck, why didn't you say so earlier? If you keep talking nonsense like this, I, the emperor, will be dead!"

The others also reacted quickly, picked up their weapons and chased after Wang Qianli.

"That's right, the emperor can give us enough food to eat and provide us with salary, so we can't let him get away with it!"

"Brothers, let's go and charge into the palace. If anyone dares to hurt the emperor, I will beat him into a sieve!"

"Gun, gun, bring the mortars!"

"........."

Watching this group of people rushing out of the barracks cursing, Li Dingguo had a thousand things to say.

"A bunch of cowards, I am the boss!"

After cursing, he also rushed out.

At the same time, in the East Factory next to Li Dingguo and his team, Xu Guangqi also heard this series of whistles!

He made the whistle bomb according to Zhu Youxiao's requirements and understood the meaning of the whistle bomb best.

Eight whistles sounded, enter the palace to serve the king!

The elderly Xu Guangqi rolled over from the bed, but because of his violent movement, he fell directly to the ground.

Not caring about the hit on his head, he just threw on a piece of clothing and ran out.

He ran to the East Factory duty room in one breath and kicked the door open.

The guard in the duty room was dozing with dazed eyes and was startled by the sound of someone kicking the door.

When he saw that the person coming was Xu Guangqi, he quickly swallowed the words he was about to curse.

"Mr. Xu, it's the middle of the night, you......"

"Stop talking nonsense, call someone quickly, there is a change in the palace, hurry to the palace to defend the king! The eight whistles just now were the signal from His Majesty, if you are late, I will skin you alive!"

Not only Li Dingguo and Xu Guangqi, but also Lu Xiangsheng who was far outside the city heard the whistling sound!

He also had a piece of silk similar to the one Li Dingguo had.

Therefore, the gong in the Shenjiying training ground was struck immediately.

The new recruits in the Shenji Battalion have only been in the army for about two months, but during this time, they have already conducted night attack training no less than twenty times!

When the gong sounds, everyone must dress neatly and gather at the training ground within a few minutes.

If you are delayed once, you will be warned and will not be allowed to have breakfast the next day.

Delay twice, five sticks!

The third time, ten sticks!

The fourth time, you will be expelled directly and will never be employed again within three generations!

It is so hard to get a job, how could these children from poor families not value it!

These twenty or so training sessions have already allowed them to form conditioned reflexes!

Chapter 54: Victory brings wealth, defeat brings slaughter

In the imperial palace, outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao poured out the empty shells from the revolver and reloaded them with normal bullets.

Just as I finished doing this, I heard chaotic footsteps all around.

"Escort! Hurry, escort!"
