Chapter 733: How to Enter Tongming?

The bearded man walked up to the carriage and lifted the canvas that covered it. The swarthy steel beast was lying there honestly, looking unharmed. Not even the generals of the Black Flag Army know anything about firearms, and the firearms workshop in Suzaku Mountain is still heavily guarded.

Fang Xie walked closer and took a look, the steel beast in front of him was so quiet, it was basically no different from the artillery in Fang Jie's impression, this kind of thing was often seen in TV series and movies in his previous life. But judging by the description of the bearded man, this guy is far more powerful than the so-called redcoat cannon.

This kind of artillery actually has two shells, which is beyond the understanding of Fang Jie.

"How many shells to bring?"

Fang asked.

The shopkeeper of the goods pass the world translated it, and the bearded man hurriedly replied: "Sixty shells with strong penetrating power, and eighty shells with strong explosive power." The artillery shells of the Rus principality and the artillery of the Opru Empire can also be matched, but the people of the Opru Empire will not allow us to do so. They say that it is an insult for the artillery of the Opru Empire to use the shells of the Principality of Rus. ”

"Test shoot two, one of a kind."

Fang Xie commanded, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the dissatisfaction in the bearded man's tone. But listening to the tone, you can know that the people of the Principality of Rus are also extremely disgusted with the Opru Empire.

The bearded man and the remaining bearded foreigners of the Rus principality hurriedly operated it, this kind of artillery required at least three people to operate smoothly, and two people seemed to be a little scrambling. This time there were originally seven of them, four of whom were cut by Fang Jie's fire knife last night, and the team leader was split into two pieces in Fang Jie's study.

The bearded and mustachioed were busy sweating before calibrating the cannon, then took out a cannonball and put it into the chamber, pushed it into it with a wooden stopper, and after adjusting it, he aimed at a temporary house on the school field, and with a roar, the cannonball turned into a huge fireball and flew out, but perhaps because the bearded man was nervous or unskilled, the cannon was crooked, and a crater was blasted out next to the room.

This is the cannonball with a strong explosion, which exploded after it landed, and after the cannonball exploded, it was like fireworks, and countless sparks shot out in all directions. Fang Jie's heart was shocked, this kind of powerful artillery, the red-clothed cannons of the previous life and modern times were completely incomparable, if it fell into the crowd, the casualties would inevitably be heavy.

I don't know how the Opru Empire can develop cannonballs like this, in terms of science and technology, it has surpassed the Great Sui by much. Fang Xie couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart, when a civilization develops to a certain point, it will inevitably invade backward civilizations. If it weren't for the fact that the Aegean Empire was separated by a sea, the Opru Empire might have already begun to prepare to explore the land on the other side of the ocean.

Now, though, it seems that the Opru Empire is already brewing this matter. Perhaps this powerful empire already has no rivals across the ocean, and often such empires have an ambitious monarch......

Fang Xie couldn't help but shake his head, and suddenly found that he might be in an era that was more complex than his previous cognition.

The first shot was crooked, and the bearded man's face turned red involuntarily, and he and the mustache hurriedly recalibrated it, and then shot the second cannonball. The piercing shell hit the room with precision, knocking a hole in the front wall before exploding, overturning the humble room.

Fang Jie's personal soldiers and entourage behind him let out an exclamation, and their faces changed color. The faces of Mo Ning Fat and Shen Tian Fan and others were also very solemn, and they couldn't help but look at Fang Jie.

"Chen Xiaoru!"

Fang Xie suddenly shouted, and Chen Xiaoru hurriedly ran over: "What does the general command?!" ”

"Send competent men, take the waterway, bring ten shells of each of the two kinds back to Suzaku Mountain, and hand them over to the people of the firearms workshop. Also, let the Riding School bring Andrew as fast as possible! ”

"Whoa!"

Chen Xiaoru saw that Fang Xie had a solemn look on his face, and he didn't dare to delay, so he immediately sent someone to execute it.

"I ask you, how many guns did you bring this time?"

Fang Xie turned around and asked the bearded man.

The bearded man replied, "Your Excellency, we have brought fourteen cannons this time, most of them in Dali City. A cannon was assigned in the other cities in order to bombard and kill the enemy's commander......"

He looked at Fang Jie's face and continued: "Because the emperor of Nanyan said that there are many people in the Central Plains who are stronger than mages, and they can turn a war around with the ability of one person. The enemy doesn't know that we have artillery, and if you take it by surprise, you might be able to kill the enemy's commander, and then victory in the war will be easier. ”

The bearded man originally didn't believe Emperor Nanyan's words, but after seeing the fire dragon in Fang Jie's hand last night, he had to believe it.

"Is there anyone from the Opru Empire?"

Fang Xie asked again.

"No......"

The bearded man said uncertainly: "Our team is not from the same place, our group of people are the guards of the Grand Duke of Ross during his lifetime, after the assassination of the Grand Duke of Rus, our status is no longer as noble as before." The general sent by the Opru Empire asked us to bring artillery to the Central Plains, and some of the others were mercenaries with murder cases on their backs, and not all of them were soldiers of the Principality of Rus. ”

"The people of the Opru Empire look down on the soldiers of the Principality of Rus, saying that they are ducks on the battlefield, and they are so clumsy and ugly to run......"

"What do you think?"

Fang Xie turned around and asked Shen Tianfan.

Shen Tianfan shook his head: "The power of the first shell is too great, and the range after it explodes is also very large, and the time from the time the shell is fired out to the time it falls in that place is very short." For practitioners who do not know about firearms, if they do not dodge in time, or if they think they can block it and do not dodge...... Even the cultivators of the Nine Grades were afraid that they would not be able to stop the power of a single cannonball. This is completely different from the power of cultivation, and the power that bursts out in an instant is very strong. ”

Fang Xie snorted, and his mood became heavier.

……

……

If it weren't for knowing that Fang Xie was in Dingyuan City, Fu Zhengnan, the city lord of Qingyuan City, would not have let people attack at night with artillery. After Murong Yan got these cannons, he distributed them to Qingyuan City and Fengping City, these two big cities are the gateways to the north of Southern Yan, because Murong Yan didn't know whether Fang Xie would fight Qingyuan City or Fengping City first, so he would divide two gates.

According to Murong Yan's orders, this cannon was used at the most critical time. He thought that Fang Xie didn't know that the Southern Yan army had such a powerful firearm, and was ready to sneak attack on the battlefield and kill the main general of the Black Flag Army with artillery. I have to say that if Fang Xie didn't know this news, Murong Yan's arrangement would be very effective.

Fu Zhengnan wanted to use this artillery to blast open the gate of Dingyuan City, and then attack it. Unexpectedly, after crossing the Jinshui River, Fang Xie killed the night attack team to pieces.

On the surface, there doesn't seem to be much difference between the artillery and the power of the attacks unleashed by the Great Cultivators. When Fang Xie first arrived in Chang'an City, he had seen the crane Daoist blast the hard official road out of a deep pit with one finger, allowing the scalper to fall into it. Now the power of the cannonball is greater than the power of this finger, because the attack power of that finger is at one point, and the power of the cannonball after exploding is in one piece. Penetrating, perhaps, not as good as that finger. But the power, that finger is not as good as a cannonball.

There is no doubt that the cultivator's attacks are more flexible. But as long as it is a cultivator, it will definitely affect the changes in the vitality of heaven and earth, so the opponent can make predictions in advance. After discovering that the vitality of heaven and earth had changed, it was natural that there was a big killing move. However, the artillery does not change the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and it is more long-range than the average cultivator.

There is only one 10,000 stars in this world, and it can be 700 miles with a sword.

There is only one big wheel king in this world, and King Kong is not bad.

Ordinary cultivators, when faced with the intrusion of cannonballs, are very likely to suffer. Fang Xie calculated that although the range of the artillery produced by Opru was not much farther than that of the catapult, it was about two miles, and the power was not enough to severely damage the cultivators of the Tongming Realm, but how many cultivators of the Tongming Realm were there in the entire Central Plains?

"You don't have to worry too much......"

Wanyan Yunshu didn't know much about cultivators, but she also had her own opinions: "Although the power of artillery is great, it is a dead thing after all, and it can't exert its power without anyone operating it. Comparatively speaking, practitioners are much more flexible. It's not difficult to avoid artillery, but it's hard to rush head-on? ”

Fang Xie shook his head: "Having said that, this is just an artillery, if there is really a powerful empire that sends an army to invade the Central Plains, then it will be difficult to confront the army of the Central Plains head-on, even if it is the elite soldiers of the Great Sui who were known as undefeated in a hundred battles in their heyday, they will suffer a big loss." Therefore, in the face of such a powerful army, the cultivators will be forcibly drawn into the war...... The artillery is dead, and the losses of some enemy countries can bear. But the loss of the practitioner ...... It is irretrievable in a short period of time. A cultivator with good talent will find it difficult to succeed if he wants to enter the Nine Grades for decades. ”

"And the vast majority of cultivators are below the Nine Ranks. After all, there are a few cultivators in this world who are amazingly talented, and the tilting fan can enter the ninth rank in one day of enlightenment, and the small waist can burst into the ninth rank in the extreme realm, but how many people like them are in the entire Central Plains? ”

"Once a war starts, ordinary armies are no match for the enemy, and they can only be dealt with by cultivators. At that time, even if the enemy's losses are greater, the enemy's losses are nothing more than firearms, which can be rebuilt. But what about practitioners? ”

"You're thinking too much."

Mo Ning Fat didn't care much about these things: "Isn't this tiring? It's just that some foreigners are coming, and it doesn't necessarily lead to a war. ”

Fang Xie shook his head, he knew that such a war was inevitable.

"If it weren't for this intention, the people of the Opru Empire would not have assassinated the Grand Duke of Rus and then dealt directly with the Eastern Chu Emperor. It's just that the Emperor of Eastern Chu doesn't trust these people very much and doesn't trust the power of artillery, so he sent these people to Nanyan, he wanted to see if the foreigners' things could have a great effect. ”

"If Murong Yan defeats me with foreigners' things, then the Emperor of Eastern Chu will definitely be very happy. Next, he will invite the army of the Opru Empire and the army of Eastern Chu to join forces to attack the Great Sui ......"

Fang Jie's brows furrowed more and more, as he felt more and more clearly that he might catch up with a chaotic era, just like the gray and bloody period of the modern era in his previous life, perhaps, even more tragic.

Gangnam

Tonggu Academy

Luo Tu stood outside the broken tower, looking at his hands in a daze. His face looked calm, but if anyone approached him, they would notice that the excitement in his eyes was so intense. In the broken tower, a one-armed old man looked at him and couldn't help but nodded: "Your talent is even better than I expected...... In just a few months, he has entered the hall and comprehended the three points of the old man's knife intention. ”

"Master, before I practiced the sword, I had nine grades of cultivation, but now my realm has improved?"

He asked.

The one-armed old man said: "It's still nine pins." ”

Luo Tu was stunned, obviously a little unconvinced.

"However, with your current cultivation, you should be invincible under the ninth grade. Your foundation is already good, and with the comprehension of the three-point sword intent, it is reasonable to be able to enter the country now. It is extremely difficult to enter the Ming Realm from the Nine Grades without great chances, otherwise why would the vast majority of cultivators in this world stop below the Nine Grades? ”

"What chance do you need?"

Luo Tu asked.

"You need to settle next, when your internal strength reaches a certain point, then the opportunity may come. Unless you find a way to more than double your internal strength, it is impossible for you to enter the Tongming Realm. ”

"Is it possible to enter the Ming Realm by increasing the internal strength by more than double?"

Luo Tu muttered, and suddenly smiled.

It's weird
