"I didn't expect your emperor to be such an outstanding talent. I want to learn from him and see how he does it." Charles I said modestly.
He Donglang didn't react to what Charles I said, but this was only on the surface. In He Donglang's heart, He Donglang had already belittled Charles I as nothing.
"You still want to learn from His Majesty, you don't look at it, you don't take a piss to see who you are, your hair is so long, it's still curled up, you don't wash it, you don't tidy it up, your hair is disheveled. what does it look like
He didn't wash his clothes, he was really a savage, and he still had an unpleasant smell on his body. "He Donglang satirized Charles I abnormally in his heart.
Charles I had very long hair that was curled like instant noodles.
In the eyes of Charles I, his long hair is very chic, but in the eyes of He Donglang, he is no different from a barbarian.
Of course He Donglang would not say these words.
While the two were chatting nonsense, Thomas walked into the hall again. He saluted Charles I and said, "Your Highness, I have brought all those weapons over."
This time, Thomas got out all the carriages in the family and used them to transport these weapons, so it didn't take long for all these weapons to be transported over.
"Where are these weapons now?"
When Thomas heard this, he stood up excitedly from the throne and walked in front of Thomas.
Thomas said: "His Royal Highness, all these weapons are now stored in the open space outside the castle. Because I did not have your order, I have not pulled them into the castle for the time being."
"Okay, okay." Charles I said three good words excitedly. Charles I patted Thomas on the shoulder and praised: "Thomas, you are really the most capable person under my command. You have done these things very well and perfectly. , after the parliament is resolved, I will make you a duke at that time."
Charles I began to draw a big cake.
With these weapons in hand, Thomas believed, it would not take long to defeat the Council.
At that time, Thomas became the nobleman with the highest title under the prince.
However, He Donglang who was standing by the side would not do what they wanted.
Although He Donglang couldn't understand what these two people were talking about, He Donglang would not let these two easily defeat the parliament.
Listening to the voices of these two people, He Donglang secretly made up his mind, "It seems that we must learn their language in the future, otherwise who knows what they are discussing, these two people are talking and laughing, who knows what they are talking about. What are they talking about, who knows if they will have other thoughts about me."
"However, this barbarian language is like a bird's language. It sounds like babbling. I'm afraid it's really not easy to learn." He Donglang let out a long breath, and looked at Thomas and Charlie who were talking blankly. A generation.
"Your Highness, those weapons are outside now, why don't you go out and see the power of these weapons?" Thomas pointed to the outside and said to Charles I sincerely.

"Your Highness, those weapons are outside now, why don't you go out and see the power of these weapons?" Thomas pointed to the outside and said to Charles I sincerely.
"If that's the case, let's go out and have a look. I want to see if this weapon is as powerful as you said." Charles I said and walked outside.
Thomas hurriedly led Charles I outside.
He Donglang and the others hurriedly followed behind the two of them and walked outside.
Not long after, Charles I, Thomas, and He Donglang arrived outside the castle.
Since there was no order from Charles I, these weapons were temporarily placed outside the moat of the castle.
These hundreds of boxes containing Vulcan rifles were neatly placed beside the moat.
Charles I walked out of the moat, and under the protection of soldiers, he came to the front of the box.
Charles I looked at the box in front of him and asked, "Is the rifle inside the Vulcan rifle you mentioned?"
Thomas nodded heavily, and said, "Your Majesty, this is exactly the Vulcan rifle I was talking about, and each box contains five. There are two hundred boxes in total, and there are a thousand rifles in total. .”
As Thomas spoke, he placed a box in front of Charles I and opened the lid of the box at the same time.
In order to prevent it from being broken, straw was spread inside the box, and the five rifles were neatly placed in the straw.
Now this rifle has a lot of oil on it, and this oil is used to prevent rust.Because oil has not been exploited on a large scale at present, these anti-rust oils are basically edible oils.
Cooking oil can also prevent rust, but it may not be very effective compared to oil, but now there is no other way but to use this method.
Charles I looked at the opened box in front of him, and squatted down, "Is the rifle inside the Vulcan rifle you mentioned?"
Charles I pointed to the rifle in the box and looked at Thomas.
Thomas said: "Your Highness, the rifle inside is the Vulcan rifle."
Thomas squatted down, squatting next to Charles I.
Charles I took out a rifle from the box and looked at it carefully.
The appearance of the Dreiser rifle is very similar to the appearance of the arquebus of this era.
However, the specific structure is still very different. It can be seen from the outside. It may not be visible from a distance, but it is still very obvious up close.
Matchlock guns have a clip for the matchlock on the rear of the firearm, but Dreiser rifles do not.
On the back of the Dreiser rifle is a rotating bolt.
Charles I looked at the rifle in his hand with disbelief and disbelief on his face.
"This rifle looks mediocre and nothing special. It's not heavy in the hand and feels light. Does this gun really have the power you said?" Charles I looked at Thomas.
In this era, because the quality of the steel was not up to standard, the inner wall of the matchlock gun was made very thick, and it was very heavy in the hand.
However, these rifles produced by Zhao Wen are relatively light because of their high-quality steel.
Charles I also played arquebus, and he knew how much arquebus weighed.
"Your Highness, this is exactly what I want to tell you, this weapon is powerful because the quality of the steel it uses is very good.
You don't have to worry, the quality of this Vulcan rifle is absolutely outstanding when it comes to steel quality.
Why are the matchlock guns we use so heavy?It is because the quality of our steel is not up to standard, and the quality of the steel is very poor. In order to prevent the explosion pain, the inner wall of the matchlock gun is made so thick.
But the steel quality of this rifle is very good. If the steel quality is good, the inner wall of the gun will be made thinner, and the weight will drop when the inner wall is thinner.
Your Royal Highness, do you think I will try the gun for you now or when? "Thomas said to Charles I with a look of hospitality.
Charles I put the gun back in the box. "If you can now, then you can try it now. I want to see if this gun is exactly what you said."
As he spoke, Charles I took out a handkerchief from his body and wiped the oil on his hands.
The gun was smeared with anti-rust cooking oil, and it was stained with Charles I's hand.
Charles I put his hand under his nose and smelled it, and then wiped off the oil on his hand with a handkerchief in disgust.
As soon as Thomas heard that Charles I was now letting him test the gun, he took a Dreiser rifle from the box.
He stood next to Charles I with this rifle, and said to Charles I: "Your Highness, let me introduce you to the most basic structure of this gun."
As Thomas spoke, he introduced the appearance and structure of the rifle to Charles I.
After the introduction, Thomas said to Charles I: "The rifle is now covered with anti-rust oil, so it cannot be fired for the time being.
If you want to shoot, you need to clean up the oil on it first. I will have someone clean up the oil now, and it will take another hour or so. "
"Just an hour, I can wait." Charles I said.
Of course Charles I can wait, it is related to his suppression of the parliament, so no matter how long it takes, Charles I can and must wait.
"Okay, if that's the case, I'll let someone clean it up now."
As Thomas said, he found a subordinate and handed over the gun in his hand to this subordinate.
When Thomas came, he also brought something to clean the oil on the gun. Thomas handed over the gun in his hand to this subordinate, and asked the subordinate to clean up the oil on it.
His subordinate took a gun and came to the thing cleaning the gun oil, and began to clean it.
It is very simple to clean the gun oil. It is a large pot filled with water. You only need to put the gun in the pot and boil it.
The cleaning of the gun oil was relatively simple. In about an hour, the oil on the gun was completely cleaned up. Thomas took the gun from his subordinates and came before Charles I.
"His Royal Highness, look at this gun, what do you think of this gun now?"
Thomas brought the gun in front of Charles I, and said to Charles I as if asking for credit.
After the firearm was cleaned, it showed its original appearance.Shining, reflecting the unique light of metal, coupled with the lean structure, it gives people a strong and powerful feeling.
"It looks really good now, but it still looks a little light!" Charles I was still a little uncertain!
"Your Highness, just watch!" Thomas said decisively.
Thomas gestured the gun in his hand in front of Charles I for a while, and then took out a bullet from the box.
When he came, Zhao Wen explained to Thomas how to use this gun in detail.
Thomas held the gun in his left hand and the bullet in his right, and loaded it as the professor taught.
Thomas's reloading speed was relatively slow, and it took almost ten breaths to reload the bullet.
While loading, Thomas said to Charles I: "His Royal Highness, don't look at me pretending to be slow, if I am skilled, I may be much faster than me.
The speed at which I reload one round, others can already reload almost two rounds. "
After Thomas finished loading, he reset the gun and opened the safety.
Charles I looked at Thomas who had finished loading, with a look of disbelief, "It's been filled so quickly? Isn't this a bit too fast?"
Although Thomas still feels that the loading speed is a bit slow.But in the eyes of Charles I, this loading speed is already very fast, which is much faster than the loading speed of the matchlock gun.
"His Royal Highness, it has indeed been loaded, now you stand far away, and I will show you a demonstration."
Thomas said and walked out of the crowd. He called a subordinate and asked him to insert a target 100 meters away.
Because there was no special target prepared in advance, Thomas asked someone to make do with wooden planks.
Not long after, a wooden board was inserted about 100 meters in front of Thomas.
Although Thomas said he could use firearms, he was not a professional soldier after all, so his accuracy was a little bit off.
He stood there aiming at the target in front of him for a long time, and finally decided to let He Donglang's hand come down.
Among these people now, the men with the best marksmanship are He Donglang's men. In order to better demonstrate the power of this spear, Thomas chose to let He Donglang's men come down.
After Thomas' request reached He Donglang, He Donglang dispatched the most powerful subordinate among his subordinates.
He Donglang's subordinate stood where Thomas was standing just now, holding the rifle that Thomas had just used in his hand, and quietly aimed at the wooden sign in front of him.
"boom!"
There was a gunshot, and after the man aimed at the wooden sign, he decisively pulled the trigger.
The wooden sign was hit, and under the force of the impact, because the wooden plate was not inserted firmly, the wooden sign was beaten and fell to the ground.
"Okay, hit, really good marksmanship."
Thomas patted his thigh and shouted excitedly.
Charles I's expression also began to stretch, "This distance is indeed acceptable, it is indeed good."
Thomas stood beside Charles I and said, "Your Highness, at this distance, this rifle can actually break through plate armor."
Charles I looked at Thomas in surprise, "This distance can break through the plate armor? You are not lying to me, are you?"
Charles I didn't believe that the plate armor could be broken at this distance at all. You must know that it is very time-consuming to build a good plate armor.
The steel used on the plate armor is very good steel, and its defense is very high. Ordinary matchlock guns cannot break the defense of the plate armor at this distance.
If you want to break through the defense of the plate armor, you need to be at least 20 meters away.
Thomas looked at Charlie with a look of disbelief, and he patted his chest and said solemnly: "Your Highness, I really didn't lie to you.
If the defense of the plate armor cannot be broken at this distance.I am willing to accept any punishment from you. "
Charles I said: "Why should I punish you? As long as you can break through the defense of the plate armor at this distance, I will credit you with great credit."
When Charles I saw what Thomas said, he actually had no idea, but if he could break through the defense of the plate armor at this distance, it would indeed be something worth celebrating.
"If that's the case, don't let me open my eyes now." Charles I said.
Thomas nodded heavily, and said, "Your Highness, I will show you the armor-piercing ability of this weapon right now. It will definitely exceed your imagination."
As Thomas spoke, he came to a soldier standing behind Charles I,
This soldier was wearing a full body of plate armor, fully armed, and looked extremely capable.
Thomas, Thomas said to the soldier, "Take off the plate armor on your body."
The soldier looked at Charles I at a loss.
Charles I nodded and said, "Take it off, take off the plate armor on your body."
