Chapter 8 Adopted Son

Chen Mu is afraid of trouble?

Deng Zilong went back and thought for a long time, but still couldn't understand what Chen Mu meant.

The Guanghai Acropolis, which has been standing in the South China Sea for almost two hundred years, asked you to push a coffin and explode. Now you are asked to marry a woman with a high dowry. Do you think you are afraid of trouble?

Deng Zilong believed nothing.

No one can understand this.

In fact, Chen Mu himself didn't think clearly whether this matter was good or bad. Although Yang Yinglong would rebel, it happened more than 20 years later. Hailongtun has not been established yet, and he could not even inherit the official position of Bozhou Xuanwei Envoy. It was too worrying about what had not happened.

But it was there, and he couldn't help but think about it.

But it is not all trouble. At least compared with marriage, whether it is building Guanghai City or building Nanyang City has become a trivial matter.

"At worst, Guanghai City will be demolished, and the city bricks will be transported to Nanyang, and only this city will be built."

If you let things go naturally, why think about those troublesome things?

Chen Mu still likes to be comfortable and take his apprentice, Hachiro, son, and his geese with his apprentice, strolling on the endless beaches of the South Ocean, whispering the sea breeze to adjust the cannon position, and with the deafening cannon sound, shattering the targets floating on the sea.

When the sunset shines on the beach, golden red is reflected in the sparkling sea, beautiful women dance gracefully, musicians play flutes, and beautiful women, wine and beautiful scenery accompany them, which can make people forget all the troubles.

There is something new to be pondered about in the Military Weapon Bureau.

The craftsman invited from Foshan Town taught how to make armor and mail for the Military Weapon Bureau. Guan Jiang asked for 42 taels of silver to purchase a full set of utensils to pull iron wires. After the craftsmen modified it themselves, when Chen Mu went to inspect the Military Weapon Bureau again, he felt that the skill points of the entire Nanyang Guard Military Weapon Bureau were slightly off.

Half of Xiangshan is close to the estuary of the sea, except for the Shilei Fortress, there are all kinds of water trucks in the Military Weapon Bureau, both large, small, far or near, providing continuous power for the Military Weapon Bureau. Yang Yinglong is right, his craftsman is so lazy!

With the help of hydraulic power, the Military Weapon Bureau entered the era of semi-automation.

They use water to beat the wrought iron; drill the chamber and pull the wires, and even lift the iron locks of the cannons with water. They do not need manpower.

The tall walls locked the Nanyang Guards' hydraulic monsters that were completely different from this era. It may not even be this era. Even Chen Mu's soul is gradually being covered up in the memory of another era, it seems that there is no such huge dependence on hydraulic power in any period.

They used to forge steel and purchased Sugang by shipping on shipping prices, and imitated the plate armor obtained from Haojing in the Military Bureau. Although there were only a few pieces, this was not difficult for craftsmen. Just like making cannons, it was not difficult to build cannons. The difficulty lies in the heavy and thickness of them.

To select the intermediate point between protection and burden, a lot of experiments and data support is required.

When he first ordered the finished products made by Guan Jiang, Chen Mu felt that he was an awkward person - the plate armor was originally something from the West, and he asked the plate armor he made to have an oriental symbol.

Some of the mentality of being a bitch.

Later he found that he was too worried. His craftsmen were much more awkward than him in this regard. Guan Yuangu had positioned this new steel armor as a armor in the morning. At least more than a hundred households in the Nanyang Wei family could wear it as a lining as a chest. Therefore, he worked hard to design and carve the carvings. The finished product he presented to Chen Mu could not tell at all that it was a set of weapons of Western descent.

The chest pellet is carved with tiger head patterns in the middle, and the shoulders are two-way down the mountain tiger. According to Guan Yuangu, it can prevent stray bullets released from thirty steps of the bird gun. The entire armor is nailed on a pair of leather robe lining, and the real armor on the outside is painted with lacquered mountain armor. Each mountain armor piece has a stinging nail, which is an improvement to prevent arrows.

Shanwenjia has a high protection against chopping and stabbing, but the disadvantage is that when the crossbow nail is shot, the Shanwenjia will be inclined at the relatively weak connection of the armor. At this time, you can only rely on the chain mail as the lining to protect the arrow cluster. Generally, it can be nailed into the mail less than three points, and will not hurt the vital points, but it is also very painful.

The upper bubble nails on the mountain Wenjiao are very different. First, the impact force will be transmitted to the large breastplate, and second, it will be difficult to penetrate the bubble nails when shot directly into the arrow cluster.

The pairs are beautiful and practical, but they are a bit heavy.

Fifteen kilograms of breastplate, plus Shanwen kara and a full set of protective gear, weighing more than forty kilograms.

The weight is similar to the past lined mail. If it is a naval battle, you can still only fight with a lined battle.

This set of armor was customized by Chen Mutui as the commander, Qianhu had a coat of armor lined with breastplate, hundreds of households had cloth breastplate, small flags had breastplate with breastplate, and ordinary flags had single-sided breastplate with battle jacket.

The Ming people had much higher requirements for clothing rituals than Chen Mu.

After the regulations are formulated, the rest is to be built slowly. If you want to put the armor on the entire army, it is probably the end of next year.

Chen Mu is busy with something, recruiting domestic soldiers.

Because General Chen, who was not married, had two more sons, one of them, Xiao Baye, whose surname was changed.

The reason was that Chen Mu wanted Hachiro to take the imperial examination. Although Wei Balang made contributions to command the artillery team under the city of Guangzhou, Chen Mu did not recommend his higher official position to Zhang Han. He personally invited an old juren who was idle at home to be his teacher and teach him the classics. This bastard never learns, and he also said that a real man should make achievements. Ten years later, he became the commander of the Nanyang Guard. What is the use of learning to write poetry!

"Li Dan is your son. He even calls your father and you don't even invite him to the old man. I also call you dad, don't invite me to the old man!"

It made Chen Mu so anxious that he couldn't even help him. The old juren invited him to let him go, but he searched through the Nanyang Guards who did not meet the boy who had both accuracies and had some identity. In the end, Chen had no choice but to pull the eighth master into the house with a fire stick, and he ran around. After that, he wrote a letter to Chen Lin.

Chen Lin's son Chen Jiujing was a little younger than the eighth master. He was familiar with the bow and horse after driving Meng. The son of the gang general also had an identity and sent him to the Nanyang Guard to study.

Later, the two of them decided to recruit guests and call friends, and hold a banquet. Chen Lin and Chen Mu became brothers. Wei Ba changed his name to Chen Zhi, and called Chen Bazhi, recognized his adoptive father Chen Lin and adopted father Chen Mu. Chen Jiujing also recognized Chen Mu as his adoptive father, so the two families simply got married.

It was a small matter of a cat studying, but it was done to become a big thing.

The Eighth Master is still the Eighth Master. If you don’t like to take the classics and history, you won’t take the exam, but you still have to read the books.

Chen Mu was very good at making his move. He let the Eighth Master go out to recruit talented, martial and brave men from Guangdong and Guangxi to serve as servants of the Chen family. He was not as big as Li Chengliang. Moreover, this was not the Nine Territory. He submitted a memorial to recruit more than 200 Miao servants in the Nanyang Guard. His left arm was patterned with snakes to avoid water, and his right hand was patterned with tiger mouth, and his right hand was patterned with loyalty and courage. He was assigned to the newly built warships and cannon guns and armor, and personally trained by the Eighth Master.

According to historical records, in the winter of the third year of Longqing, snow fell in Guangdong, and the plants and trees on Xiqiao Mountain were all ice.

What should come will come eventually.

The drumbeard building outside Guangzhou City is closed.
