You had heard one circulates probably very wide view: The Chinese invented gunpowder, take the medicine that do red and firework however, and Hesperian uses production firearm however. This kind of view is wrong of course.
Generation of Chinese the Song Dynasty begins large-scale gunpowder, firearm is used on the military affairs, and well-known, song Mo yuan first, mongolia (yuan face) legionary take cities and seize territory also used gun. As to yuan end bright first, yuan government office of affairs of state army employed the firearm with striking power with each uprise army. In bright end, no matter be bright government aid,fight toward what fight day, still be bright government army the gold after mixing (clear) be opposite legionarily definitely, artillery, firelock is deciding the trend of important war and outcome greatly.
So, why to arrive time of 19 centuries 30-40, the army of clear government has experience of hot weapons equipment scarcely however, fight in coordination the level is very low still, appear before the British expedition fleet with limited number be without strike back ability?

In this book, europe Yang Taibo opened up to circulate very wide " competitive state system " view -- all the time since, a lot of politics homes, economist and historian allege, european country from which the century arrives latter-day between the adverse impact that form, force its to improve composition of politics, economy, military affairs, and the archaic China with unified type of centralization of state power rejects to innovate however, lost competitive dominant position thereby.
The historical data basis that Ou Yangtai adopts full and accurate in the book announces point out, archaic China antedates the west uses gunpowder, firearm on the military affairs. Because arrive from Song Dai at the beginning of bright generation,this is greatly year archaic China, the war is removed period not long, the imperial court must want to deploy firearm force, ability avoids to fail in major battle. And arrived of building fort become the following a century, archaic China greeted peaceful and stable cycle, the motive force that this reduced a military affairs to innovate -- nevertheless, after gold rises, japanese pirates infestation, the warlord of archaic Japan reveals pair of Korea even ambition of be covetous on, after European colonist steps sufficient East Asia, chinese Ming Dynasty begins temporize to undertake the military affairs innovates again.
Ou Yangtai points out, in Ming Dynasty terminal, european long period held the dominant position that ocean naval battle and fastness build, but China and Korea train went out can adept get used to firearm to fight, the elite troops of Ma Zhan and pace battle, rude at least kind of Western Europe at that time is legionary.

" arrive from red medicine firearm " still point out in the book, martial historian is concerned drill art and annulus the view that shooting art is western invention also is incorrect. Of contemporary and Euramerican army drill and annulus shoot a method to come from 16 centuries the Nidelan of 90 time, and this gets really of ancient Rome classic drill influence, but once interrupted for a long time after all. And be in China, annulus shoot a technology to had appeared from period of the Warring States, specific and perfect in Tang Dynasty, continued to go down all the time. Acting famous general of the Song Dynasty , defends lasher to fill in, the golden country that used round of fire to break through military strength to take actor is legionary, be over defeat utterly of art of colour stand upright and return. 14 centuries are terminal, ming Jun is when Yunnan smooth betray, also with arrow of machine of igneous Chong, god annulus shoot a smash the elephantine arms of rebel army.
·A book of tactics of gunpowder of Chinese ancient time " fierce classics always wants "
Interesting is, have do not be opposite at other historian the evaluation of Zhu Yuanzhang of emperor of Ming Dynasty found a state, of this book general call " gunpowder emperor " , emphasize Zhu Yuanzhang can sufferring a defeat yuan army with etc justice army, use effectively because of firearm. Nevertheless, book author is clear also point out, no matter be Song Dai, yuan era still is bright generation, the firearm of Chinese mainland often can rise only in the military affairs auxiliary sex action, is not the key that decides victory or defeat. Because be in archaic China, the city wall ply of capital, provincial capital, fastness often exceeds 10 meters, this is the ply that recent heavy artillery piece also cannot destroy easily, so the dimensions of firearm of Chinese form ancient times slants overweight miniaturization, however more angle that restrain prairie cavalry from Song Jun, Ming Jun set out, slant at miniaturization.
Why is explaining very easily also from this the big gun that research and development of China of Western Europe and rather than gave real significance to go up, gigantic artillery piece. Cannon, gigantic artillery piece is confined to 2 meters of right-and-left cities to the sort of city wall on European mainland, the destruction that has type of as easy as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood might. Especially Ao Siman empire captures with gigantic artillery piece Junshitandingbao's battle, adapted the tactical idea that Europe studies a city. After this, as a result of the development of European science and technology, artillery (include a boat to carry artillery and army gun) improved development is accelerated ceaselessly, got used to European mediaeval evening very well to arrive thereby latter-day and ceaseless the war that launch.

·Ao Delei overcomes castle defense position
Bring about Chinese firearm to lag behind at time place of the west in the round truly, appear in 18 centuries and 19 centuries initial stage. After clear government consolidates its dominate, beat especially 3 hedge, as legionary as the tsarist Russia of intrude into Heilongjiang break even, call in after Taiwan, home begins the peaceful picture that appeared to see inaccessibly.
·Gunboat water battle, smoke of gunpowder diffuses
Peaceful with the passing of time, this is numerous to the Chinese civilian during this it is meddlesome of course. But a lot of Sinology homes and historian place point out no less than in that way, because of long-term peace, consequently Chinese clear government need not undertake martial technology reforms, defence of a city, sea prevents a level to also had poured the level before Tang Dynasty of fall back on is earlier even. Midstream hits water, do not enter retreat, after the martial innovation of clear government stops, the military affairs of archaic China defends ability had absolutely sex reduce, to it at the same time, europe still progresses ahead in the stride, after this caused the Opium War finally to reach, country of 100 years carries abasement.
In this book, ou Yangtai points out, the historian often is based on the culture feature of Chinese depth, allege Chinese culture article excels fierce, chinese knowledge estate is fed up with study West, archaic China closes the country to international communication, etc, these conclusion are wrong completely actually. The archaic China before 18 centuries, past dynasties of all previous face takes martial innovation seriously quite, even if arrived in Ming Dynasty later period, lag behind at the European colonist at that time temporarily when level of technology of archaic China military affairs, the Chinese official that is a representing with king Yang Ming, intellectual also Europe of can modest study's advanced place, turned round the situation with Chinese coastal fragile at that time defense very quickly accordingly, resisted the descent of European colonist and Japanese pirates.
