Chapter 452
The entire valley was silent, and a cadre of civil and military officials looked at each other, hardly believing their ears.
I saw that on the huge testing ground, hundreds of originally upright dummies were no longer visible at all, and there were fragments of various armor and various traces of being burned.
Even the fish scale armor, which is considered indestructible and made of wrought iron, has rows of iron pieces stuck in it, and the face and other parts that are not protected by the armor are riddled with holes.
If it is in actual combat, these enemies are absolutely dead and cannot die anymore.
Some small and inconspicuous iron bumps are so powerful, which is far beyond everyone's imagination.
Wang Ben and other generals quickly realized how terrifying the power of such a light new firearm would be once combined with cavalry.
"It's amazing!"
"What are you talking about, why can't I hear me?"
"This momentum can really shock people to deafness!"
Lao Bin, who had been charged for 10 years, was stunned for a long time before he barely regained his hearing, and his face was shocked.
With such power, even if it doesn't explode, you will be scared to death.
"With this artifact, my Great Qin Iron Horse will be truly invincible in the world!"
Wang Jian trembled his beard and muttered to himself.
"It's this power, it seems to be a little smaller, it has an excellent effect on leather armor, and it can also cause effective damage against iron armor, but for the biggest shortcoming of cavalry, siege seems to be insufficient. "
Meng Yi hesitated.
"It's already quite good, with this power, you can scare the other side so much that you don't dare to come out, it's just to spend a little more time trapping the opponent!"
"One can't do it, pile up a lot more, the general city wall, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop it. "
"But if it's too much, won't it be too heavy to throw at all?"
"You're stupid, you have a giant crossbow and a catapult, use these to throw, a few hundred steps are not a problem at all, okay?"
"It's still too close, the range of this firearm is too big, if only it could be farther away. "
The rest of the generals also argued.
"Who said that this firearm can't go farther, and it can't collapse the city wall? "
"What I just showed you is just the simplest application of firearms. "
"More advanced firearms, although it is still difficult to mass produce them, but laboratory manufacturing is no longer a problem. "
Fusu smiled slightly.
After repeated failures in the development of artillery steel technology, the engineering academy, under the guidance of Fusu, soon set the target on copper, which is more malleable than steel.
Although today's Daqin, due to the development of trade, copper production is still beyond its means, but with the promotion of money tickets, it has been much better.
Moreover, the craftsmen of Daqin were already very familiar with bronze, so after replacing the material with bronze, the first batch of bronze cannons were soon trial-produced.
"How far can this large firearm hit?"
Looking at the bronze cannon launched by Mo Xiu and others, Ying Zheng hurriedly asked.
"Father and you might as well guess?"
Fusu said with a smile.
"Your Highness is so confident, it must be much stronger than the stone throwing car, the minister guesses two hundred and fifty zhang!"
"If it's less, it's at least three hundred zhang!"
"In my opinion, it will be a little stronger, but it can't exceed four hundred zhang, right?"
"Your Highness, will you announce the answer quickly?"
A group of people focused their attention on Fusu together, even Yingzheng was no exception.
"Less, and much less!"
Fusu waved his hand.
A group of people were stunned.
This is also an exaggeration.
Three or four hundred zhang, not in a high place, is already beyond the scope of human eye observation, and needs to be observed with the help of a clairvoyant.
And Fusu is actually the range of this new firearm, far beyond this, which is really shocking.
After a long time, Ying Zheng was the first to come back to his senses, took a deep breath and said, "Is that really the case?"
"Moxiu, get ready to start, solid bullet test firing!"
"Before firing the gun, you must bring earplugs, this momentum is much stronger than just now. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Fusu smiled faintly.
Everyone hurriedly complied, even the group of veteran ruffians.
Having personally tested the momentum of this firearm, they don't want to really become deaf.
For Fusu, it is also a complete worship.
On the other side, Mo Xiu had already taken the first batch of gunners from Daqin and completed all the preparations. []
The first is the rangefinder, who uses the thumb ranging method taught by Fusu to start measuring the distance of the target.
"Fifteen hundred paces away, the elevation angle has been adjusted!"
"The package is complete!"
"Ammo hands in place!"
"Fire!"
As the flag in Mo Xiu's hand waved vigorously, the loader reloaded the ration pack and the shell in turn, and the main gunner also lit the ignition line according to the scale.
"Boom!"
As the lead burned out, an earth-shattering loud sound sounded directly, even with earbud protection, a cadre was still buzzing.
Even from a distance of dozens of feet, you can still clearly feel the ground shaking caused by artillery.
The number of steps in Daqin is a two-step system, which is converted into later generations, that is, more than 1.3 meters, 1,500 steps, or about 2,000 meters.
This distance, for the shell, is only a few seconds, and before Ying Zheng and the others came to their senses, they saw the position of the target in the distance, which was completely shrouded in smoke.
Ying Zheng's face changed sharply at 317 o'clock, both excited and a little confused, and finally turned into shock.
After a long time, Ying Zhengcai let out a long sigh and said, "With this artifact, I have no worries about the Great Qin hegemony!"
"Doesn't my father want to go over and see the power of the artillery himself?"
Fusu pointed to the target area where the smoke had begun to dissipate, and said with a slight smile.
"Yes, quick, drive!"
Ying Zheng reacted at this time, rushed out of the bunker directly, jumped into the steam car and headed towards the target.
Soon, all the civil and military ministers also came to the target area that had been bombarded one after another, and gasped together.
In an area of tens of zhang in radius, not only was the land completely cracked, but even a boulder was directly shattered!
"With this artifact, even if it is a thousand troops, in front of my Great Qin, it is just a chicken and a dog, and it can be destroyed!"
"Such a boulder can be directly shattered, and the city wall is not a problem at all!"
"There is no city that can stop my Great Qin Tianwei!"
Wang Jian and the others were shocked.
They are all veterans of the battlefield for many years, and they naturally understand the power of this artillery, which means that Daqin has entered a new era and will truly achieve invincibility in the world.
Ying Zheng's face was even more proud, and there was a feeling of being alone and seeking defeat.
There is only one Great Qin in the whole world, and there is no hindrance!
