Everyone stared at the Desert Eagle in Xiao Ran's hand. It was another new gadget that no one had ever seen before.
Li Shimin became alert. He had never seen a pistol before, but he guessed that it was a hot weapon. His instinct told him that this thing was very dangerous.
Among the hot weapons that Li Shimin had seen before, he did not see any pistols, at least they were all automatic rifles.
No one else has seen it, but the two little princesses and Li Lizhi have.
Xiao Ran would not bring it with him in the 21st century, but he carried it with him most of the time when he came to the Tang Dynasty. He was used to it, and Li Lizhi and the two little princesses had also seen it.
Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang also arrived at the military academy and saw the gun in Xiao Ran's hand.
There is no need to hide. In the future, Li Shimin will equip some of his trusted elite Tang troops with hot weapons.
"As the saying goes, an inch longer is an inch stronger..."
"Young Master, yours is not long at all." Cheng Chumo didn't think it was that powerful. It was not as good as a dagger.
"When I say long, I'm not referring to the length of the weapon itself, but the range." Xiao Ran shook the pistol.
"Uncle, what's the range of Tang Dynasty's bows and arrows?"
"Normally, it's about a hundred steps!" Li Shimin was sure it was more than that. This was an average level that most soldiers could achieve.
One step is calculated as 0.65 meters, which is about 70 meters.
"The range of this is about 300 steps!" Xiao Ran shook the pistol. The Desert Eagle has a range of 200 meters.
Everyone was shocked that such a small thing could be so scary.
Hearing the range, the generals' eyes became hot, and no one doubted what Xiao Ran said.
What Xiao Ran took out was not normal in the first place, at least it looked abnormal to the people of the Tang Dynasty.
"How is that possible?" Li Jing frowned.
Li Shimin didn't expect it to be so far, and he also understood Xiao Ran's intention of carrying this with him.
Li Shimin also understood Xiao Ran's mentality. It was reasonable for him to bring a pistol with him when he came to the Tang Dynasty alone!
I don't mean to blame Xiao Ran.
But Li Shimin was also a little scared. If it was bad for Xiao Ran, it would be hard to defend against suddenly pulling out such a thing.
Xiao Ran loaded his pistol and pointed it at the target not far away. He turned and looked at the two little princesses, "Mingda, second sister, cover your ears."
The two little princesses were very obedient and did as Xiao Ran said.
Xiao Ran looked at Li Lizhi, Princess Yuzhang and Princess Gaoyang again. The two of them understood what he meant, and Princess Gaoyang said she was not afraid.
Xiao Ran gripped the pistol tightly with both hands and aimed at the target not far away.
Everyone stared at Xiao Ran and no one spoke.
"Bang!" A crisp and short gunshot, like thunder exploding in the air, instantly broke the original silence.
The sound of the pistol shooting was sharp and piercing, as if it could penetrate one's soul and make one's heart shrink suddenly.
Many timid people were frightened. The noise was a bit too much, especially those who were close to Xiao Ran.
The specific lethality cannot be seen, but the noise is very scary.
There was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air.
Zhang Ananda ran to look at the target and said, "Your Majesty, the target has been penetrated!"
The bow and arrow have arrows, but Zhang Ananda can't find the bullet head.
Li Shimin probably understood in his heart that its power was more terrifying than that of a bow and arrow.
Seeing that Xiao Ran had this, the people around him were a little afraid.
"The Tang army will also have this type of weapon in the future. Generally speaking, a spear is as fast as a seven-step spear, and it is difficult for humans to dodge it."
"It's difficult... doesn't that mean there is a chance to avoid it?" Qin Huaiyu said.
"It can't be said to be dodging, it should be said that he didn't aim, he aimed wrongly. The bullet from a pistol is too fast, and people usually can't react."
"What about within seven steps?" Xue Rengui asked weakly.
“Accurate and fast!”
"Because within seven steps you don't need to aim, just raise your hand and shoot!"
The little princess seemed very powerful and pointed at the pistol in Xiao Ran's hand, "Little Nang Jun, I want this~"
Xiao Ran unloaded the gun, took out the magazine, and handed the pistol to the little princess.
"It's so heavy~" The little princess could only hold it in her arms.
Before, Xiao Ran did not trust Li Shimin, the old man, but now he has some feelings for him. These are secondary. Li Shimin is an emperor and a politician. Xiao Ran is not betting on Li Shimin's feelings, but on his own value. Li Shimin will not do anything wrong.
"So annoying~Bang~"
"Sizi, show me, Grandpa!"
The little princess hugged the gun tightly, "No~ It's a nest~"
Li Shimin put the little princess down and said, "This is Xiao Ran's. Can you show it to me, Grandpa?"
"Hehe~ Here comes my little sac~ Here comes my little sac~" The little princess ran to Xiao Ran with a pistol in her arms, "Here comes my little sac~"
Li Shimin looked at Xiao Ran, just wanting to feel it.
Xiao Ran took the gun and said, "Mingda, give it to my brother!"
"Hmmmm~"
Xiao Ran took the pistol and handed it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin also noticed that when Xiao Ran handed the gun to him, the muzzle was not pointed at him.
Li Shimin took the pistol, felt it was very heavy, and was a little excited.
I long for this kind of power so much!
The range, stability, and ease of use are all things that bows and arrows cannot compare to.
"Not to mention anything else, just the noise just now must have scared the horses. This should be good for dealing with cavalry." Li Jing also stared at the pistol.
"This should be good for dealing with cavalry. With this range and power, the cavalry will pay a heavy price if they get close!" Li Shimin also thought of it.
Xiao Ran also prepared some information. The red cannon was also a dimensionality reduction attack in this era, which was enough for the Tang Dynasty to expand its territory.
Xiao Ran took out the prepared materials and said, "Uncle, cultivate military talents in this area and build a military factory."
Li Shimin took a look and said, "Good, a red cannon... What a great red cannon!"
"General Li, according to what Xiao Ran said, find someone to start setting up an arsenal and building cannons, and let the Ministry of Works cooperate with you." Li Shimin handed this matter over to Li Jing, the vice president.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Ran was still introducing hot weapons.
"Strength is always the foundation for upholding justice, national defense is the backing of diplomacy, dignity lies only on the edge of the sword, truth is only within the range of the cannon, and cannons are used to measure the area of the country."
"Everything within the range of the cannons is the territory of the Tang Dynasty."
"The voice of the Tang Dynasty is the truth..."
Hearing the excitement of a group of young second-generation people, Li Shimin was a little surprised. Xiao Ran was quite good at inspiring people.
Many people want to enter military academies, but the threshold is too high.
With people like Li Shimin, Li Jing and Yuchi Jingde in charge, not everyone can come in.
The status of military generals is not low nowadays.
Seeing that it was almost time, Xiao Ran took the princesses to the Agricultural College.
"Young Master, I want to see that...your gun!" Li Lizhi also wanted to see it and was very curious.
Xiao Ran took it out from behind, "Wu Niang, it's a bit heavy!"
"It's really heavy..." Li Lizhi looked carefully at the pistol in her hand.
