His Majesty the Emperor did not mean to blame, and his tone was extremely relaxed, but as the vanguard of the siege, Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ninth Army, was still quite stressed, if he still couldn't take Hangu Pass after another attack, then the old face of the Ninth Army would be thrown home, and when the time came, Commander Xu would come to change generals before the battle, could he still be a man? I'm afraid that even everyone in the Ninth Army will have to lower their heads and see people detour when they see friendly troops.

As a battle-hardened general, Luo Weiran still has some doubts about the new weapon that His Majesty the Emperor is confident in, the strength of the wall of Hanguguan is far beyond his imagination, and the tenacity of the guard Qian Zhongyi also gives him a headache, the other party is also an old man, and he has the heart of death, and the layout of the city is extremely ingenious, yesterday's fierce artillery bombardment, actually did not destroy the opponent's firepower, when the infantry attacked, the fierceness of the counterattack made him frightened.

Sometimes I think about it, and I especially hate those unscrupulous businessmen in China who ******** want to make money, if it weren't for the fact that they took the cement and steel structure construction technology to sell it for money by the imperial court, and at the same time could make a lot of money on cement and steel bars, it would have been so difficult to hit Hangu Pass today, if Hangu Pass was still the same as before, a cannon would have collapsed long ago. Fortunately, the cannonballs hit countless times, leaving only countless small craters on the city wall, which basically did not pose a threat to the main body of the city wall.

The hiding method of the opponent's artillery, Luo Weiran also roughly guessed, in fact, in some cities in China, he has also seen such artillery positions, which are more exquisite than those of the Qin people, because the artillery of the Han Dynasty is much lighter than that made by the Qin, and the artillery with wheels and rails is usually hidden in the gun hole, and when it is fine, the artillery cannot be seen at all, and there is a baffle at the entrance of the cave. When the baffle is pushed, the artillery hole is integrated with the wall, and when the battle comes, pull off the baffle and push the gun out along the guide rail.

The Qin people also used this technique, which made the attackers have to worry about it, unless they were lucky and the cannonballs flew directly into and exploded along the mouth of the cannon hole, there was really nothing they could do about the opponent.

After waiting for a day and a half in torment, Hanguguan was also quiet for a day and a half. Luo Weiran finally waited for the kind of new cannonball that His Majesty the Emperor had said. A technician opened one of the boxes under Luo Weiran's gaze, and to Luo Weiran's surprise, the box was divided into two layers, and one of the thin interlayers was actually filled with water, and at this time he also saw that the lid of the box was also uncovered.

"What is this for?" He asked, pointing to the box.

"Commander Luo, this is the white phosphorus warhead. This thing has a very low ignition point, and it will spontaneously combust if you are not careful. And when it burns, it is extremely terrifying, it will never stop if it is burned out, and it cannot be extinguished in time, so they can only be completely isolated from the air with water in normal times. "The technician carefully picked up a warhead. It was placed on the table.

Completely different from Luo Weiran's imagination of listening to the cannonball, this white phosphorus bomb was in the shape of a cone, lying on the table at the moment, the thin iron shell flashing a faint blue light under the light.

Keep an eye on this bomb like no other. Luo Weiran asked puzzledly: "This is completely different from our artillery regulations, how can we beat them out?" ”

The technician explained: "Commander Luo, he didn't fire from artillery. Instead, another launcher is used, but this white phosphorus bomb is too difficult to preserve, so when we make it, we divide it into two parts, the first part is this warhead containing white phosphorus, and the other part is a propulsion device with gunpowder. ”

"Sounds like the kind of cupola gadgets you play in the New Year!" Luo Weiran said in surprise.

The technician smiled and said: "Commander Luo is really powerful, this thing was originally inspired by these things like the cupola, but with the warhead of this white phosphorus bomb, it is extremely terrifying, and there are some places that are even more terrifying than artillery." ”

"Worse than artillery?" Luo Weiran stared at this extremely delicate cone, and it was really hard to imagine what he was so powerful: "Explain it in detail." Tell me what makes him so powerful? ”

"Yes, Commander Luo!" The technician nodded and sorted out his thoughts, Luo Weiran and this person actually trembled slightly at this time, and their hearts couldn't help but move.

"This kind of white phosphorus bomb has a very low ignition point, if they are exposed to the air, the temperature will be slightly higher and spontaneous combustion will occur, once it gets into the flesh, it is impossible to extinguish it at all, Commander Luo, when we were making this kind of shell, there was an accident, and dozens of people in a workshop died." The jitters of the technician's body became more and more obvious, and it was clear that he remembered the scene at that time. "Commander Luo, can you imagine it? The clothes of those people were all intact, but the people, the people were burned terribly. ”

Hearing the sound of the technician trembling, Luo Weiran not only became nervous. "The clothes are not burned, but the people are burned?"

"yes, all the way to the bone, this thing is like a maggot with a bone, it will never stop until it is burned." Technician said.

Seeing this technician's expression, Luo Weiran was also a little worried: "Do you need any special skills to fight this thing?" ”

"It's not necessary, when it is fired, it is the same as playing with the cupola, and even the storage of this thing is very careful. Once something happens, something big is going to happen. The technician said.

As soon as he heard this, Luo Weiran immediately said: "In this case, you are still responsible for this custody matter, and you have enough people to come, right?" When we use it tomorrow, you will give us as much as we need, and since this thing is so dangerous, we people here have not touched it, so we will not interfere casually. ”

"That's fine." The technician nodded, carefully placed the warhead back into the box, closed the lid, and took out the other half of the shell from another box, which was a cylindrical object with three tails mounted on top of the tail.

"It's still very different from the cupola!" Luo Weiran held it in his hand, "The first half is terrifying, the second half is quite exquisite, these bayonets are connected to the white-scaled warhead, right?" What is the use of making a few small wings on this tail, isn't it too heavy, wouldn't it be able to fly farther? ”

"This is not advisable!" The technician smiled: "These three little wings, but it took us a long time to figure them out, Commander Luo, when you were playing with the cupola, was that thing not accurate, and sometimes it flew around?" ”

"Not bad." Luo Weiran's face changed, "Once during the Chinese New Year, my naughty boy played with that thing, but the cannon turned a corner in the air, and hit one of my family members in front of the door impartially, and the explosion was miserable, and it was dripping with blood!" You, you're not going to be in this situation, are you? ”

"It did happen at the beginning, but those experiments were carried out under specific terrain, but they would not accidentally hurt people, these three small wings are used for stable flight, with them, there will not be too many problems in the flight of artillery shells, basically they can still fly according to the predetermined target, otherwise, it is impossible to put into actual combat."

"Can this thing really help me knock on the Hangu Pass?" Luo Weiran was still a little skeptical.

The technician said proudly: "Commander Luo, you can see it tomorrow, although the terrain of Hangu Pass is dangerous, but the more terrain like this, the more effective this white scale bullet will be, and tomorrow, Hangu Pass will be a hell on earth." ”

"I hope so." Luo Weiran said, Ci is not in charge of the army, as long as he can let the enemy die more and his own people die less, he doesn't care if Hangu Pass becomes a hell on earth.

In the emperor's imperial tent, Yang Dasha looked at His Majesty the Emperor with some dismay, "Your Majesty, are you going to watch the battle tomorrow?" He had nothing to say, and Yang Dasha had never been a good person to talk to.

"I'm not going." Gao Yuan shook his head: "The white phosphorus bomb has already been shipped, it will be put into use tomorrow, Hangu Pass, it will become a hell on earth, it will be very miserable, I won't go, I feel uncomfortable when I see it." ”

Yang Dasha laughed a few times, and said in his heart that His Majesty the Emperor has been fighting in the world for more than ten years, and the enemies who died at His Majesty's hands are not one thousand but eight hundred, if you count the people who died in the whole world in these years, it is an extremely large number, His Majesty the Emperor said this, but there is a suspicion of being cowardly.

What Yang Dasha was thinking, Gao Yuan also knew, but he knew too well how powerful the white phosphorus bomb was, even in his previous life, this thing was forbidden.

He didn't expect that this thing would be made by this era, first the Yizhen Research Institute accidentally discovered white phosphorus in the experiment, and then the characteristics of this thing were quickly excavated, and then the Weapons Research Institute also quickly intervened, and the two joined forces, and soon decided to study it as a kind of weapon.

A weapon similar to rocket artillery, and thus was born. When Gao Yuan saw this weapon for the first time, he was also stunned, he felt that he still underestimated the ingenuity of people in this era. They actually came up with the tail fins on the tail to keep the rocket's flight steady and directional, so that this weapon could finally be used on the battlefield.

Personally giving the order to use this weapon is also based on the characteristics of Hangu Pass, tomorrow, thousands of such rockets will explode over Hangu Pass, Hangu Pass, those who can survive, I am afraid that they can be counted with one hand. And what made Gao Yuan's heart even more uncomfortable was that these people would never die a painful death like being hacked to death with a knife or a cannon explosion, and they would die in pain.

I'm going to be disgusted by God! Gao Yuan thought to himself.

"Dasha, do you want to fight?" He stood up and clenched his fists in a clattering manner.

Yang Dasha's eyes suddenly lit up, "Your Majesty, you haven't moved your hand for a long time. ”

"Sample, can't you clean you up?" Gao Yuan sneered. "Come on, come on, let me loosen your muscles for you."

"I'm not going to keep my hand." Yang Dasha stood up excitedly. (To be continued.) )
