Chapter 915 Punishment, Shame

♂!

Any piece of durable goods, as long as it is not rough workmanship, then after the breakage, the stubble must be a mixture of old and new.

So after seeing that quarrel, Fang Xing dared to determine the reason with certainty.

And there was the most crucial reason, which was the reason why Fang Xing was calm from the beginning to the end.

"Your Majesty, the steel made of muskets comes out of the same furnace, and the later manufacturing is in charge of each process, and finally the guns have to be tested. The muskets produced after such twists and turns, or a batch of accidents, is impossible. Only one!"

Fang Xing's tone was calm, as if he was reciting a travelogue.

"Your Majesty ordered the three guns belonging to the injured sergeant Tong Xiaoqi to be retrieved, all of which are numbered. Please allow your Majesty to test them."

Zhu Di nodded, Zhu Gaosui said anxiously: "Father, your safety..."

Zhu Di said coldly: "I've traveled all over the battlefield, and I haven't seen any scenes!"

Fang Xing coughed dryly, then winked with the eunuch, then went to the side hall, and when he came back, he already had an extra piece in his hand...

"Take it."

Fang Xing handed the steel plate to Zhu Zhanji uncomfortably.

Zhu Zhanji took it with a smile, and then stood beside Zhu Di holding a steel plate, like a door god.

Zhu Gaosui blinked and said in disbelief, "Father, this is... an iron plate?"

Zhu Di also tilted his head uncomfortably, and said, "Stop talking!"

Jin Zhong nodded secretly, Fang Xing was able to take out the steel plate for his body without fear of embarrassment, this is loyalty, a hundred times stronger than those righteous courtiers.

Outside the main hall, under the supervision of Lao Qi Xin, three soldiers of Suzaku Guard began to reload, and the target was the wall in front.

For safety's sake, Xin Laoqi had drawn his swords and stood beside the surrounding guards. If the three of them dared to turn their guns, they would immediately end up cutting their bodies apart.

"Bang bang bang!"

Three shots passed, and under the gaze of Xin Laoqi, the three continued to reload and shoot.

After seven consecutive rounds,

The gun barrel was already very hot, so Xin Laoqi called a timeout, and then said: "Cool down, and then test the maximum charge."

Fang Xing in the main hall was also introducing the next test.

"They'll be firing with the trigger pulled on a string to test the strength of the barrel, the first time with double charge."

"Bang bang bang!"

Just as he was talking, there was louder gunshots outside. Later, Lao Qi Xin came in and said, "Your Majesty, the barrel of the double-charge gun is still intact, and I'm going to test the triple-charge."

"No!"

Zhu Di glanced coldly at the ministers: "Fang Xing, tell me why he took too much medicine."

Song Jianran blushed, Zhu Di didn't trust his ability! She actually gave Fang Xing the chance to explain.

Fang Xing nodded and said: "At that time, the gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the gunshots from the Zhuquewei suddenly became quieter. I knew it was because of the lack of practice, and then the hundreds of households and the small flag officers would definitely scold the sergeants, so the more they scolded, the more panicked they became. , in the end, there was charging into the gun barrel, but I forgot to charge the gun in the medicine tank..."

Fang Xing took a look at Song Jianran, and continued: "After pulling the trigger, the sergeant found that it didn't start, and he would charge the gun again in a panic..."

"Why didn't it rotate?"

As the minister of the Ministry of War, Jin Zhong naturally knew the tactics of the musket array. Hearing this, he was worried that Fang Xing's analysis would be wrong, so he blew up the topic first.

Fang Xing smiled: "Master Song has been watching from the sidelines, so I have to ask him."

After the accident, Song Jianran didn't think about his own mistakes, so he threw the pot on Zhu Fang's head first, Fang Xing would be foolish if he still covered it up for him.

Song Jianran stood there in a daze, and when Zhu Di turned his gaze, he stammered, "Your Majesty, minister... those sergeants are... worried that if they don't fight out, they will... be punished."

"Didn't call out?"

Yang Rong finally spoke up, and he asked suspiciously.

Fang Xing explained as an expert: "The rotation of the musket array is based on the platoon as a shooting surface. When someone in the middle does not shoot out, the firepower will not be dense enough, and the enemy will rush up. Therefore, during the drill, there will be Sergeants with this kind of problem will be beaten with military sticks."

Zhu Di nodded slightly, feeling that such military regulations are very necessary.

But it wasn't over yet, Fang Xing continued to show off the military regulations of Jubaoshan Guard: "Some sergeants were too flustered, and even forgot to take back the cleaning rod, and shot out the cleaning rod as soon as they fired. This kind of mistake is also a military mistake. Stick disposal."

Zhu Di looked at Song Jianran, frowned and said, "Is Zhuquewei practicing like this?"

Zhuquewei actually imitated Jubaoshanwei, and the original instructors were all from Jubaoshanwei, so they should not be unfamiliar with the exercise code.

Song Jianran's forehead was already covered with sweat. He saw those disappointed faces, Zhu Gaosui's indifferent expression, and Fang Xingyun looking outside calmly.

"Your Majesty, yes, Suzaku Guards practice according to this."

"Come on!"

Zhu Di's face was hardened, Song Jianran didn't dare to beg for mercy at all, but just knelt down and bowed his head, waiting for disposal.

"Pull it out, heavy responsibility!"

Zhu Di's voice seemed to be filled with icy scum, but Song Jianran said ecstatically, "Thank you for your kindness, I will serve myself after my death..."

Jin Zhong quietly touched Fang Xing with his arm, Fang Xing nodded back, knowing his worry.

Song Jianran was not dismissed, and Song Jianran was able to take the blame and meritorious deeds and continue to lead the Zhuquewei. The main reason was that Zhu Di couldn't find a suitable candidate in his pocket.

Zhu Di glanced over those martial arts, and shook his head imperceptibly.

Most of these people developed during the Jingnan Battle, and then increased their resumes during the Northern Expedition. They are all generals on horseback.

But these feats of martial arts have always been against Jubaoshanwei's firearms and combat modes.

The sound of hitting the army stick outside was very dull, and the muffled sound of biting the wooden stick made Zhu Di even more irritable.

"It's all gone!"

All the officials saluted and left the hall. When passing by the place of execution, Song Jianran raised his head and smiled apologetically at Fang Xing. The sweat on his face immediately drowned out the smile.

"puff!"

"Um!"

Jin Zhong was a little disgusted with Song Jianran: "If you don't take responsibility, if it is still like this on the battlefield, it will be a hidden danger!"

Hesitant and indecisive, not daring to be the enemy's sharpest, such generals have never been able to stand alone.

Fang Xing said: "He is just too utilitarian and worried about being rejected by His Majesty. I hope he will remember this lesson."

Lost all face, this is Fang Xing's evaluation of Song Jianran.

Whether it was a mistake in the front or being punished heavily by Zhu Di later, it made him lose face.

"Fang wake up!"

Zhu Gaoxu chased after him with big strides, and said carefreely: "This king sees that Song Jianran is probably not convinced by Jubaoshanwei, and wants to compete with you!"

What Zhu Gaoxu said, Song Jianran had this mentality.

Suzaku Guard is now like Zhu Di's guards, but in the war between North Korea and Yingzhou, Suzaku Guard always felt that it was much worse than Jubaoshan Guard.

"Then practice well, instead of thinking about being in the limelight all day long!"

Fang Xing felt that Song Jianran was putting the cart before the horse, and if he didn't learn his lesson, he would stumble again in the future.

Having won a big victory, naturally he should be proud. Fang Xing concealed his complacency and prepared to go home to show off to his two daughters-in-law.

It's just a pity that the two sons are too young! Otherwise you can brag about it.

"Fang Xing, you forgot to take that iron plate."

Zhu Gaoxu's kindness broke Fang Xing's complacency, and he pretended to be bold and said: "I will give that thing to my grandson."

"Zhanji won't wear this thing."

Zhu Gaoxu's 'chasing and killing' made Fang Xing very angry, so he said angrily: "Does the lord want to kill himself in the Fang family?"

Zhu Gaoxu licked his lips and said: "What's wrong, let's go, go to your house to eat hot pot, Master Jin will go with you?"

Jin Zhong waved his hand and said, "I have a lot of things to do in my family, thank you, my lord, for your kindness."

If you follow this one, you will probably be carried back today, and the youngest son in the family will not be able to hold him by then.
