Chapter 156: Burst Arrow
Thanks to Li Jing, he heard the sound of the explosion and came to check, otherwise by the time the grenades were equipped in the army, there might be how many soldiers would be killed by their own grenades.
"Please also ask the general to correct me." Since Li Jing can say the most professional words, I believe that he can also give the most professional guidance, at least Jia Yi doesn't have to think hard about it.
"Manpower is sometimes poor, but I feel that if you tie such a sharp weapon to an arrow, I believe you will be able to achieve the effect you want."
Sure enough, it was a professional, and the words he said directly made Jia Yi can't help but nod his head, it should be an arrow, and only an arrow can bring the grenade faster and farther into the enemy, and produce the desired effect, without causing any damage to his own army.
"I'm going to go back and study it."
Jia Yi has already proven that Jia Yi has proven that the iron sheet wraps the gunpowder and produces an explosion of gunpowder, so what he needs to do next is to tie the grenade to the arrow, it doesn't matter if the effect can be reduced, just increase the quantity.
I have to say that blacksmiths are also wise, just when Jia Yi said to tie the grenade to the arrow, these blacksmiths gave a better way, that is, in order not to affect the flight trajectory of the arrow, directly add a small iron bucket to the arrow, install the arrow in the front, and install the arrow tail in the back, which only increases the weight of the arrow, but will not cause any deviation of the arrow due to wind resistance.
Hearing this, Jia Yi immediately happily gave a very high praise to the blacksmith who said this, and then touched it from his body for a long time before he found a tael of silver, which was thrown directly into the blacksmith's hand, and told him that if he had any other good ideas, he would give more rewards.
When a local arrow equipped with an iron bucket appeared in front of Jia Yi, Jia Yi did not experiment with the power of this arrow for the first time, but gave this arrow a name, Burst Arrow.
After filling the iron bucket on the blasting arrow with flames and putting in a section of oil rope, Jia Yi notified all his friends and directly found Li Jing and asked him to test the power of the bursting arrow himself.
In order to see the power of the bursting arrow more intuitively, Jia Yi placed a lot of straw men fifty paces away.
Li Jing picked up the longbow and put the bursting arrow on the bow, and then used the torch inserted in the ground next to him to ignite the oil rope on the bursting arrow, as the oil rope began to burn, Li Jing aimed the bursting arrow at the straw man in the distance, and did not see him have any aiming movements, the arrow flew directly into the strawman like a meteor, and accurately nailed to the position of a scarecrow's chest.
Seeing this, Jia Yi couldn't help but express a high degree of admiration for Li Jing's archery, although this distance was only fifty steps, it could accurately hit the straw man's chest, which also proved that Li Jing had good archery skills.
The Burst Arrow stayed on the straw man's chest for only a moment, and as the flames burned to the gunpowder, a bright flame came out of the Burst Arrow with a violent explosion.
With the experience of last time, although everyone was still shocked by the power of the bursting arrow, they were not frightened by this explosion.
Soon the smoke cleared, showing the appearance of those scarecrows, the straw man who was shot by the arrow directly turned into a bare wooden stick, still standing in the snow, all the straw men in front of the scarecrow were all in tatters, and each scarecrow was burning with flames, and the grass people behind the scarecrow were relatively intact, presumably the scarecrow should have blocked all the debris for them.
After seeing the state of the straw man clearly, everyone couldn't help but gasp, although these scarecrows are not as strong as the armor on real people, but if this kind of thing happens to people, I believe that people will not have any good results.
"Very well, let's make it like this." Li Jing nodded with satisfaction, and handed over the matter of making the bursting arrow directly to Jia Yi's hands.
"Whoa."
When Li Jing was far away, Qin Huaiyu and other friends all surrounded him, and began to ask Jia Yi all the news about the bursting arrow.
For everyone's inquiries, Jia Yi just smiled and gave a unified answer: "Military aircraft." ”
When the little friends, including Qin Huaiyu, heard these two words coming out of Jia Yi's mouth, they almost couldn't help but beat Jia Yi up, even so, Jia Yi was almost shaken apart by the bones on his body, they were all young people, they were already full of curiosity about this kind of novelty thing, and now the main owner was in front of him, and he didn't ask how to do it.
"Don't shake, don't shake, I'm dizzy."
Soon Jia Yi was defeated, and when everyone let go of the hand that grabbed Jia Yi at the same time, Jia Yi didn't stand firm, and fell directly to the ground.
After a long time of dizziness, Jia Yi finally came to his senses, sat up from the ground tremblingly, and then said to the group of killers around him: "This is the latest thing developed by my Datang, the name is gunpowder, as for the arrow shot by the general just now, I call it a burst arrow, which means an arrow that can produce an explosion, as for the production method of gunpowder, His Majesty the Emperor has an order, not let me tell people personally, who knows who will die." ”
Jia Yi had moved the emperor out, so there was no way to ask, but soon everyone's attention shifted to the gunpowder itself, and they all pleaded on Jia Yi to continue to get some bursting arrows out, so that they could also have a good time.
For their request, Jia Yi originally planned to swear to the death, but he couldn't stand their collective shaking, and finally agreed with a soft mouth.
In order to ensure the successful completion of the upcoming task, Li Jing ordered the blacksmith to give priority to building 4,000 burst arrows.
Spring Festival, the second Spring Festival after Jia Yi came to Datang, I didn't expect it to be spent in the army, all the people in the army were in a very good mood on this day, as the most important festival in Datang, even if they were on the battlefield, they could not be exempted from the desire to celebrate.
Even Li Jing, a military god who governs the army very strictly, agreed to the soldiers' celebrations for the first time.
A night's carnival unfolded rapidly in the ice and snow in this wilderness, this time period, unless it is in Chang'an and the surrounding areas, it is impossible to have green vegetables to eat, but it doesn't matter if there are no vegetables, what mutton, beef and horse meat, all cut into large pieces, with a variety of ingredients added to the fire to make meat pieces, everyone is even more bold and directly with their hands to eat, the wine that should not have appeared in the army, was also brought from Shuofang City, although not much, each person only has two bowls, but it made all the soldiers cheer loudly.
Since the last time he was drunk for three days, Jia Yi has never drunk liquor again, so the two bowls of wine belonging to Jia Yi have become the target of competition among the friends, just for the ownership of these two bowls of wine, there was even a wrestling match among them, without any accidents, Qin Huaiyu got one of the bowls without showing the mountains and water, and drank the bowl of wine with three laughs, and the winner of the second bowl of wine was a little miserable, although Cheng Chumo's kung fu was also good, but there were many people who could compete with him, Changsun Chong and Li Huairen are two of the strongest contenders.
When Cheng Chumo was holding another bowl of wine with a blue nose and swollen face, that cautious look made Jia Yi feel that what he was holding was not a bowl of wine, but the most precious treasure in the world.
After a period of embarrassment, Cheng Chumo was also like Qin Huaiyu, raising his head and pouring a bowl of wine into his stomach.
The appearance of wine in the army, naturally it can't be a high-grade wine, but it is a rice wine that is inferior to a star wine, and I heard from the soldiers who bought the wine that there seems to be no good wine in this Shuofang City, which makes Jia Yi think that it seems that his wine can expand the market again.
After the carnival was over, the station was quiet again, the bursting arrows had already been made, and after Li Jing brought out the jerky and sausages prepared by Jia Yi from the jerky factory, he began to light up the troops and horses and prepare to set off.
Jia Yi has already prepared all the sleds needed for this trip, and tied them to the back of the war horse, and arranged a large piece of sleds, which is also known as a good scenery in the station, if Jia Yi has a mobile phone now, he will 100% take out his mobile phone to take pictures.
The target this time, Li Jing did not inform the whole army, but after ordering the troops and horses, he equipped all kinds of supplies, and then stood on the sleigh and stepped out of the garrison first.
In order to congratulate Li Jing on his expedition, Jia Yi stood outside the station, ready to send Li Jing on his last journey.
"The general must be careful when he goes, I will wait for the general's triumph."
"I wait and wait for the triumph of the general."
Everyone bowed respectfully to Li Jing, but what everyone including Jia Yi didn't expect was that Li Jing actually said something like this to Jia Yi, "Congratulations to a fart, you kid go with me." ”
Jia Yi was stunned, and his friends were all stunned, as the next generation of generals, they knew in their hearts that this kind of dangerous thing was extremely dangerous, and it was impossible for them to have the opportunity to participate, although Jia Yi did not have the protection of his closest elders, but he was the closest junior in the eyes of all the nobles, and almost no one regarded him as an outsider, and now Li Jing actually wanted to take him to the battlefield, which made them unable to figure out what Li Jing thought.
