"Xiao Langjun, what is this?"

Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask.

"Hongyi Cannon!"

Zhao Heng said with a smile: "With this thing, conquer the city and conquer the land, and be invincible." ”

Although this is only the first generation of Hongyi cannon that has just been developed, its power has far surpassed that of the bird gun and the tiger squat cannon, especially in terms of siege, it can be called a big killer!

In this era, the Hongyi cannon can definitely be regarded as a strategic-level heavy weapon.

First of all, in terms of firing range, it is basically between 500 meters and 1,000 meters, and if it is a giant Hongyi cannon weighing thousands of catties, the effective firing range can even exceed 1,000 meters.

The second is lethality, there was a saying that "one cannon erodes dozens of miles", although it is quite exaggerated, but it is enough to prove the huge power of the Hongyi cannon.

However, limited by the level of craftsmanship, this Hongyi cannon is still lacking in both range and power.

In addition, for the time being, only solid bullets can be used, and if you force the use of flowering shells, it is very likely that the chamber will be blown up directly, and not only will you not be able to hurt the enemy, but you will also cause losses to your own side.

There is no way, the Walled City still uses water and animal power as power, and with various primitive machine tools, although it has barely developed a Hongyi cannon, it still has many flaws.

Of course, even so, the current Walled City is still in the stage of primary industrialization!

Zhao Heng also believed that after the first generation of steam engines and generators were developed, the industrial process of the Walled City would definitely be greatly improved.

The Hongyi cannon in front of him weighs 800 catties, and the effective firing range should barely reach 500 meters.

There was only one fatal flaw, after firing twenty shells in a row, the barrel was basically scrapped.

In other words, this Hongyi cannon, which is unique to the whole walled city, has a lifespan of only twenty rounds.

Zhao Heng is not in a hurry, anyway, there is still about half a year before the troubled times, which is enough for the Ordnance Institute to improve and develop more powerful second- or even third-generation Hongyi cannons.

"Hongyi cannon?"

Ying Zheng and Wang Jian are a little confused, what is this?

"You all know what siege equipment is nowadays, right?"

Zhao Heng smiled and asked.

"Of course you know, the stone thrower!"

Wang Jian nodded directly.

He has commanded the army for many years, and he has not known how many cities he has captured, how can he not know?

"This cannon is 100 times more powerful than a catapult!"

Zhao Heng said affirmatively.

"I don't believe it!"

Wang Jian shook his head directly.

It's just that if you put the copper pillar on top of the chariot, you can have a hundred times the power of the stone thrower?

No way!

"How do I use it?"

Ying Zheng's eyes also flashed with a hint of doubt, and then asked Zhao Heng.

"Cool, you can try it!"

Zhao Heng's gaze turned and said to a guard behind him.

The ordinary people of Daqin do not have surnames, only names, which can be one word or two words.

For example, the two guards behind him, one is named Shuang, and the other is called Xi.

"Yui!"

Shuang nodded in response, and then walked up to the cannon.

He first loaded the gunpowder and shells, then adjusted the angle of the barrel and aimed it at a concrete wall five hundred meters away.

In the end, he lit the ignition rope directly.

At this time, Zhao Heng, Ying Zheng, and Wang Jian had already taken more than a dozen steps back, although the barrel of this Hongyi cannon was made of refined copper, but the level of craftsmanship was really not too high, and there was no danger of exploding.

Anyway, before the breech gun was developed, he would not have personally tested the gun.

Lao Zhao and Lao Wang are both talents he urgently needs, and naturally they can't stand under the dangerous wall.

When the fire rope was ignited, it quickly detonated the gunpowder inside the barrel.

Rumble!

In an instant, with a loud bang, I saw a cloud of white smoke mixed with fire blooming from the muzzle of the gun.

Almost at the same time, a black dot slashed across the void and slammed into the concrete wall.

The next moment, Zhao Heng and the others saw that not only was the cement wall directly blasted out of a huge gap, but also cracked all around.

The shells continued to shoot backwards, tearing a small wooden house behind the concrete wall to pieces.

Seeing this scene, Ying Zheng and Wang Jian were just two people whose ears were buzzing, but at this moment, even their brains began to buzz.

After a long time, they came back to their senses, but they heard Zhao Heng say dissatisfied:

"It's still a little lacking."

So powerful, but still not satisfied?

Ying Zheng and Wang Jian are a little incredible.

It's no wonder that Zhao Heng is not satisfied, although in later generations, he has not played with artillery with his own hands, but he has also seen a lot in various war movies, what cannons, howitzers, and even ordinary breech guns, the power is far from being comparable to this Hongyi cannon.

As for rocket artillery, missiles, the Dongfeng series, not to mention.

Although he is also eager to get all these things out, he also knows very well that even with his own plug-in, it is impossible to do it without dozens or even hundreds of years of development.

However, even if he doesn't have these, as long as he can solve the problem of long-range communication, as well as trains, ships, and airplanes, then his goal of building a great Qin where the sun never sets and allowing people all over the world to speak Chinese can already be easily achieved.

Of course, even if this is the case, it will be impossible to achieve it in a short period of time.

"Xiao Lang...... Sir, this thing is an artifact of the Immortal Family? ”

Wang Jian asked Zhao Heng with a slightly trembling voice.

He has fought countless battles in his life, and he has obviously been completely shocked by the power of this cannon just now.

He was even sure in his heart that the young man in front of him was very likely to be the legendary immortal, otherwise, how could he have such a heavenly artifact.

Therefore, he directly changed the title of Xiao Langjun to Mr. Xiao to show his respect for the immortals.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was also looking at Zhao Heng carefully.

In fact, he had already guessed in his heart.

Hybrid rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, paper, fine white salt, and abbreviation, which one belongs to Daqin?

Now, he is even more sure that the person in front of him is the immortal he has been looking for for a long time.

What do the immortals represent?

Anything is possible, nothing is wonderful.

And, immortality!

So......

"Little sir, you are ...... to me What does Brother Zheng think? ”

After a short silence, Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Heng with burning eyes and asked.

"Brother Zheng!"

Zhao Heng glanced at Yingzheng with a different color, and then said: "Six kings, four seas and one, he abolished the sub-feudal system and changed to the county system. ”

Hearing his words, Ying Zheng's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of pride.

What if the remnants of the Six Kingdoms wantonly smeared him, what if he was a tyrannical king, in the eyes of the immortals, he was the first emperor to win the government, and he was the first emperor of the ages!

is worthy of being an immortal, and his words are good.

"Little sir, please continue!"

Ying Zheng said towards Zhao Heng.

"It's a pity that although he gave birth to many sons, none of them are angry."

Zhao Heng continued.

As his words fell, Ying Zheng and Wang Jian couldn't help but be stunned.
