This thing is a bayonet!
To be precise, it should be called a gun knife!
"hehe, not bad!"
Ning Chen looked at the firearm in his hand, with a faint smile on his face.
Soldiers who specialize in shooting with firearms.
In fact, what I am most afraid of is being approached by the enemy!
And with this blunderbuss knife, it can not only shoot from a long distance, but also fight hand-to-hand with the enemy when it gets close!
It can be attacked or defended, it can be far or near, it can be called extremely extraordinary!
And behind the gun.
It is also equipped with wooden buttstock, fire door and other parts...
Under the joint action of these gadgets, a qualified firearm is completely manufactured!
The first shot of the Tang Empire!
The first, it can be called an epoch-making firearm!
Ning Chen gently stroked the firearm in his hand, feeling very good!
After all, it can be done in just one day.
Just make such a firearm, although it is still not perfect, but it is almost okay!
Go bare.
It was enough to make Ning Chen feel better...
"Slightly flawed, the inner wall of the barrel is not too smooth, it is easy to cause aging and explosion!"
"but."
"After all, this is the first one. It is already very good to be able to do this!"
Lord Ningguo chuckled.
Holding the firearm in one hand, he walked slowly step by step not far away.
He reached out and poured the gunpowder he had just prepared into the black barrel of the gun!
And take a wooden stick to press it tightly.
Afterwards, he took some unpoisoned iron sand and lead pellets.
A series of actions are smooth and flowing, but they appear to be cautious!
After finishing a series of preparations, Ning Chen took a long breath.
Keep your eyes focused, raise your firearm, and aim the front sight at the distant wall!
The fire letter was instantly ignited!
next second.
A ball of sparks suddenly burst out from the muzzle of the gun!
"Boom!"
There was an explosion, and it came suddenly!
The smoke filled the room.
On the wall in the distance, potholes of different sizes appeared one after another immediately!
The first shot of the Tang Empire...!
Chapter 238 All ministers: Fuck you, f***ing courtiers! ! …
A brilliant sun hangs above the sky.
Sprinkle thousands of golden lights, shining a light on the earth!
Chang'an City, Tai Chi Palace.
When the routine morning is over.
A group of important officials of the imperial court also came to the Ganlu Hall to discuss matters according to the order of the emperor Li Er!
"My dear ones, don't be restrained, just sit down!"
A faint smile appeared on Li Er's face.
Everyone present is an important minister in the Tang court!
For example, Li Jing who is the minister of the Ministry of War, and Changsun Wuji who is the minister Zuo Pushe.
For example, Fang Xuanling who is the order of Zhongshu, such as Wang Gui who is the secretary of the household department!
of course.
In addition to this, there is Wei Zheng, the Minister of Zhongshu, Mr. Wei...!
Gao Shilian, the oldest among the crowd, raised his eyes and looked around the four houses.
In the end, his gaze was fixed on an empty seat, and the expression on his face was indescribably complicated...
original.
This seat should belong to Lord Ning, the pillar of the country!
And now.
The Duke who used to work in the same yamen as him did not stay in the capital...
"Ugh……"
Elder Gao sighed faintly.
In an instant, a little sense of loss rose in my heart? !
Elder Gao quickly shook his head.
Throw this horrible feeling out of the sky!
The emperor Li Er, who was sitting on the main seat, coughed lightly, and then said in a flat tone:
"My dear friends, the reason why I called you here today!"
"It's about the appointment of those vacancies...!"
"Twenty or thirty official positions are vacant in the capital, and more than a hundred official positions are vacant in the local area!"
"What about these vacant official positions, I want to hear your opinions!"
I heard His Majesty's questioning.
All the important officials of the Tang Dynasty present, you look at me, and I look at you.
Then each of them shut up, as if they were thinking about it!
Seeing this scene, Li Er silently shook his head.
"If my brother-in-law was here, I wouldn't be so embarrassed and worried...!"
His Majesty the Emperor sighed faintly.
Then I heard the voice of Du Ruhui, who was shot by the right servant of Shangshu, coming from in front of me!
"Report to Your Majesty!"
"I believe that you can choose a person of insight from the Daibei family, the Jiangnan family, etc.!"
"Temporarily fill these vacancies and become an official of our Great Tang Empire!"
As soon as these words came out, a look of surprise flashed across the faces of everyone present!
But before Li Er opened his mouth to speak.
Gao Shilian, who was sitting on the left, jumped up from his chair and gave Du Ruhui a hard look!
"It must not be like this!"
"Your Majesty used so much effort to sweep the five surnames and Qiwang out of the court!"
"How can we continue to let the children of the Jiangnan gentry and the Daibei gentry take over the official positions?!"
"Isn't this leading the wolf into the house, and wasting all the previous efforts in vain!"
Speaking of this, Gao Shilian's words paused.
Then he bowed his hands to the emperor Li Er, and continued:
"If you continue to appoint people from aristocratic families as officials of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Then this move is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Not only is it futile, but it will even cause endless harm!"
Gao Shilian's face was solemn, and his tone was firm and persistent!
Even today it seems.
The gentry in the south of the Yangtze River and the gentry in Daibei are all loyal to the Tang court!
It seems that if they are allowed to take over the vacant official positions, nothing major will happen.
But in the eyes of Mr. Gao.
Although this kind of measure is somewhat useful, its disadvantages are also quite large!
If one day, other forces in the court can no longer suppress the gentry such as the Jiangnan gentry.
The trouble of five surnames and seven hopes yesterday, isn't it going to be staged again? !
Li Er, who was sitting on the main seat, heard these words.
There was still no emotion on his face, he nodded slightly, and said with a calm smile:
"Indeed, the clan must not be allowed to raise its head again!"
"so."
"According to my idea, let the group of scholars who passed the examination by the Ministry of Officials take office quickly!"
"Put it in a local place to work for a period of time. If the grades are excellent, then transfer back to the imperial capital to work!"
Upon hearing this.
Everyone present opened their mouths wide in astonishment, their faces full of disbelief!
today.
How dare you award these official positions in Beijing to those scholars who have just passed the imperial examination and the examination by the Ministry of Officials? !
Everyone felt incredible.
Even, I feel that His Majesty's move is too childish!
The official authority of the power center of the empire.
How can it be so simple and easy, just leave it to these inexperienced scholars!
Changsun Wuji immediately turned his head and looked at Li Er solemnly.
Arching his hands and saluting, he said in a deep voice:
"His Majesty!"
"Those scholars are mostly from the Han clan, and they have no political experience!"
"The minister believes that they must not be allowed to occupy high positions in a short period of time!"
Changsun Wuji stood in front of Li Er respectfully.
After saying these words, I was already ready to be slammed by my brother-in-law.
But to his surprise, His Majesty the Emperor didn't respond at all!
In an instant, the atmosphere froze completely!
until a long time later.
