"When His Royal Highness was attacked on the way back to the north, the guards on the Prince's Mansion slaughtered all sides with only twenty nine-star crossbows in their hands, so that the lower officials and even the entire Tingwei Mansion were envious for a while."

Chen Boyan suddenly mentioned that Fusu was attacked, and words like the nine-star repeater suddenly reminded Li Yu of the past.

And thinking that he asked the people from the Tingwei Mansion to collect the corpse, Li Yu couldn't help but laugh and said: "If it weren't for Ben Hou in front of His Majesty the First Emperor, he would have said that the nine-star repeater could not be mass-produced. I'm afraid that the gate of the Hou Mansion has already been broken by Lord Chen's people. ”

Hearing Li Yu's answer, Chen Boyan became more and more convinced, the sentence "The nine-star repeater cannot be mass-produced" is nothing more than a lie made up by Li Yu.

Although I don't know what kind of purpose Li Yu is for, he will choose the nine-star repeater that the imperial craftsmen have worked hard to develop, and he will be directly beheaded as soon as it comes out.

But Chen Boyan is a transparent person, and he knows what to ask and what not to ask people.

Regarding things, Chen Boyan has always adhered to the principle of seizing the day, so he will sit firmly in the office of the Tingwei Mansion for many years.

Now Li Yu has made people develop a weapon similar to the nine-star repeater, and he personally admits that the audience is the army.

Then the foothold of the first batch of armaments will have to be fought for, and it will need to be fought.

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Boyan's mind became active, and he couldn't help laughing: "Master Hou said that he was joking, that nine-star repeater is too domineering, and if it is widely used, it will not be beautiful." ”

Li Yu nodded and responded: "Yes, Ben Hou originally considered that there was a greater risk after the promotion of the repeater, so he put it on hold.

Moreover, the cost of the nine-star repeater is expensive, and the complicated process is also a problem, and it is not suitable for the military configuration. ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Yu's original remarks were self-defeating, Chen Boyan had an unbelievable expression, and said in his heart: The army is not suitable for allocation, and the case-handling personnel of this government are suitable, but it's a pity.

Chen Boyan sighed in his heart that it was a pity, but his face was not half lost, but he changed his expression of expectation and said: "No wonder Lord Junhou has let people develop new weapons. ”

"This is a place for Zilong and them to meet on weekdays, so it's more spacious, otherwise I'm afraid that the new weapons will accidentally hurt the next person later."

After speaking, Li Yu no longer paid attention to Chen Boyan and took the "black pipe" like something handed by Feng Yansheng.

Say it's a "black pipe"? In fact, it was Feng Yansheng's craftsmen who gave the name of this strangely shaped object like a burning stick.

In Li Yu's words, this should actually be called "fire gun"? Or "Torches". It was originally a product of the Yuan Dynasty, but now it was brought to the Qin Dynasty by Li Yu early.

Seeing that Feng Yansheng, a migrant worker who was engaged in the research and development of the "Fire Hammer", he was confused, and he didn't know what the use of this bronze object with a black appearance like a bamboo tube was.

Li Yu couldn't help but explain: "In Benhou's words, this is called a fire gun, also called a handcuff? Of course, you can also call him the black pipe. ”

"And the reason why the bronze cast pipe body is used? Is it to be able to withstand the pressure generated by the burning of black powder, and can be filled with more gunpowder and heavier projectiles? Thus increasing the power of firearms. ””

Firebolt?

Handcuffs?

Firearm?

After Li Yu's brief introduction, Feng Yansheng's eyes lit up? exclaimed: "I see, Xia Guan has realized." ”

Li Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled: "Tell me? What did you realize? ”

Heard that Li Yu wanted to test himself? Feng Yansheng couldn't help but stand up straight? Zhengsheng said: "This container called the fire gun was divided into three parts by Hou Ye?" Then it is not difficult to guess that one of the parts is used to fill the black powder, that is, the spherical part in the middle of the pipe body. ”

Seeing Li Yu nodded? Feng Yansheng became more and more confident: "And the projectile bead is loaded in the front of the tube body?" This is also known as the breech. So what? Just take advantage of the explosion in the back of the chamber filled with gunpowder? Can you knock out the projectile beads loaded in the breech? Thus causing killing. ”

Hearing that Feng Yansheng had almost completely explained the principle and structure of the firecracker, Li Yu immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay?" Your understanding is almost exactly what Ben Hou wants to say next. ”

Feng Yansheng was praised by Li Yu, not to mention how happy he was, so he said excitedly: "Master Hou's design idea is really amazing?" Xiaguan will benefit a lot. ”

Li Yu grinned, patted Feng Yansheng's shoulder and said, "As the saying goes? If you do a good job in advance, you must first sharpen your tools. Seeing that Lord Feng is so enthusiastic about research and development, it is foreseeable that the future of Daqin will definitely be thriving. ”

Chen Boyan was in a fog listening from the sidelines, but after Feng Yansheng said this, he also had a rough outline of the fire gun in his heart.

Then he asked, "Can Lord Junhou let the lower officials try this novelty?" ”

"Lord Chen, although this thing won't explode, you should always hold the tail hammer, don't slip your hand and accidentally hurt others."

Li Yu's other people here actually refer to himself, after all, Li Yu still cherishes his life.

As soon as he heard that Li Yu had agreed to his request, Chen Boyan suddenly blossomed, and said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Master Hou, don't say anything else, I Chen Boyan thinks that I still have some ability." ”

After speaking, Chen Boyan picked up a "black pipe" from the board on the side, followed Li Yu's example, and filled the gunpowder with the gunpowder, twisted the fire wire, and loaded the projectile beads.

And Li Yu carefully watched Chen Boyan's steps on the side, and when he saw Chen Boyan coming easily, Li Yu smiled and said, "Master Chen is learning very quickly." ”

Chen Boyan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then laughed and said: "This fire gun is also easy to use, but I don't know how powerful it is." ”

After speaking, Li Yu couldn't react. Chen Boyan immediately picked up a burning incense and lit the fire line.

After all, it was the first time to develop a firearm with lethal damage, and Li Yu's mood can be imagined, and he was really a little apprehensive.

It took only three or two breaths for the line of fire to ignite into the storage room.

Chen Boyan also nervously clenched the tail of the firecracker, the heat-insulating handle called the tail.

Boom~Bang!

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, accompanied by a huge thrust from his arm, Chen Boyan couldn't help but shudder.

"This? That's it? ”

Feng Yansheng watched carefully from the sidelines, and also asked, "So fast? ”

From Chen Boyan's ignition to the loud noise of the fire just now, it was only a blink of an eye, which made the two of them unbelievable.

"What does Lord Chen think of this firecracker?"

Li Yu looked at Chen Boyan with a smile and asked.

Chen Boyan couldn't help but exhale and said, "This thing is a little too quiet, I just don't know how powerful it is." ”

Feng Yansheng looked at the wooden stake where the armor was placed without saying a word, and said, "If you want to know how powerful it is, Lord Chen can take a look at it. ”

Before the words fell, Chen Boyan couldn't resist his curiosity and walked to the stake.

When he saw that the front chest of the military armor was full of pits the size of beans, Chen Boyan said with an incredulous expression: "The power of the fire gun is terrifying......
