Chapter 4 Grenades

The next day, Mo Li got up, thinking of the voice last night, Wu felt strange, like a dream but not a dream, like a fantasy but not a dream.

Mo Li vaguely remembered that when that voice came, the token in his arms seemed to be emitting a strange heat. It seems that this token does have an unbelievable peculiarity, so you should study it when you have time.

Mo Li couldn't help but take out the token and look at it again, hoping to find a trace of clues, but after looking at it for a long time, he was still disappointed.

At noon that day, Mo Li was training soldiers in the barracks, when he suddenly heard a report from his subordinates that a large number of Tartars had been found outside the East City Gate, but they did not start attacking the city.

Mo Li thought that the leading generals of this Tartar were not reckless, knowing that Jinzhou City was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they were not in a hurry to attack the city.

"Guan Feng, let's go, let's take a look." Mo Li greeted Guan Feng and said.

"Mo Da...... Master Mo, I'll go too! Lin Guo heard Mo Li's words and hurriedly ran over.

Lin Guo has changed into a set of Ming Army's standard military uniforms today, wearing a black helmet, and the red military uniform and jet-black shiny heart armor look heroic on her.

Mo Li glanced at her, nodded, and then rode to the East City Gate with more than ten personal soldiers and Guan Feng.

On the tower of the east city gate, the soldiers of the Ming army on duty were like facing a great enemy, holding the arquebus in their hands, staring nervously at the movement outside the city, and the air was filled with a depressing smell.

Mo Li climbed the city tower and looked outside, only to see that four or five miles away, the black pressure was full of tartars, and most of them were cavalry, and the momentum was very huge from a distance.

At this time, Zhang Cunren, the deputy general of Jinzhou, also rushed to the east gate with people, Mo Li didn't know Zhang Cunren, but Guan Feng told him quietly, so he stepped forward to salute.

Zhang Cunren's face was worried, and he turned his head and said: "General Moshen, now it seems that it is indeed possible that the Tartars are waiting for the arrival of the army before implementing the siege plan, but is there the main general who sees the Tartars on the other side?" His name is Yue Tuo, and he is a brave and resourceful general among the Tartars, and it is not easy to deal with! By the way, what kind of flamethrower you talked about yesterday, right? Did you get it out? ”

Zhang Cunren was also one of the several lieutenants who accompanied He Kegang yesterday, because he also knew the method of breaking the enemy that Mo Li said, although he didn't understand it very well, but he was quite interested.

Mo Li hurriedly said: "General Zhang, the last general has already asked the craftsmen to hurry up the development, I believe there will be news within a few days." ”

"Well, that's going to have to be quickened." Zhang Cunren said a few more words, and then left.

Mo Li looked at the Tartar army outside the city, pondered for a while, thought of something, and hurriedly walked down the city, preparing to return to the barracks.

As soon as I came down, I saw that the round-faced Liu Tianlu was hurrying with his own soldiers. Seeing Mo Li, Liu Tianlu's face was a little unpleasant, and he said in a weird manner: "Yo, General Mo Shen is also here, why don't you hurry up and get your torches or something, be careful that General He will punish you when he arrives!" ”

Mo Li scolded secretly, fuck, you wish Lao Tzu died, don't pretend to be a cat crying rat here, bah, bah, you are a mouse.

But I scolded in my heart, but after all, I still have to respect him on the surface, who calls him his top boss! So Mo Li piled up a kind smile and said: "Mo Li has his own measure, thank you General Liu for your concern!" He deliberately dragged out the end of the heart word very long.

"Hmph. It's good to know! Liu Tianlu knew that he couldn't help Mo Li at this time, so he turned around and went up to the city tower with interest.

Mo Li shook his head, and took Guan Feng, Lin Guo and the others back to the barracks. This Liu Tianlu, what a bastard of his meow, didn't he refuse his sister's proposal last year, as for always treating Lao Tzu as an enemy,, but you don't aim at your own sister who looks like a shabby, Emma, after a few hundred years, it is estimated that Sister Feng will feel willing to bow down when she sees it, and even Guan Feng feels that she can't stand it......

In fact, there is another reason why Liu Tianlu and Mo Li are not on the same page, that is, Mo Li had given Liu Tianlu advice very bluntly before, asking him not to drink the blood of soldiers and deduct the food and salary of the brothers.

In his opinion, what does his family eat and drink? And this matter is a tacit secret among the generals of the Ming army, when Yuan Chonghuan was there, Liu Tianlu didn't dare to be bold, after Yuan Chonghuan was imprisoned, Liu Tianlu felt that it was too worthless to work for the court in vain, like Yuan Chonghuan was honest all his life, and dedicated his life's energy to the Ming Dynasty, but in the end he didn't end up being wronged and scolded? I'm still in prison.

In these years, the war is in chaos, but it is more real to have silver. At least with the silver, you won't starve.

But Mo Li (before Mo Li) was a simple and upright man, and he thought that one day, Inspector Yuan would be wronged and made known to the world. He always believed that one day the emperor would acquit their supervisors and lead them again to resist the enemy and defend the country.

When Moli returned to the barracks, he immediately found craftsmen and asked them to develop a new weapon, a grenade.

Mo Li used to be a military fan, although he didn't like to learn much on weekdays, but boys usually like to dance with guns and sticks, since he was a child, he often followed his uncle to the mountains to hunt, so he also practiced a good marksmanship, after graduating from high school, he often delved into all kinds of military weapons knowledge, if it weren't for the tattoos on his body that made him refuse when he enlisted, he is now a glorious people's fighter.

But in the previous life, you couldn't be a soldier, but this life is good, and you're a general as soon as you pass through, woohaha, it feels pretty good.

Muskets need rifling to increase range, but crafting rifling requires a lathe, so where to find it in between. But the grenade does not need rifling, the manufacturing process of this thing is relatively simple, with Moli's solid military fan skills, it only took half a day's effort, Moli not only let the craftsmen understand the principle and process requirements of grenade production, but also made the first experimental sample.

Due to the limited conditions, the grenade made by Mo Li and them was naturally quite simple, but after finding an open space to test, the lethality was still quite good, and there was a loud bang, and the sand and gravel and broken iron flew everywhere, which made Mo Li happy for a long time. With this thing, Mo Li has a little more confidence in killing the enemy and defending Jinzhou City, and the problem at hand is to quickly make this grenade in large quantities, and let the soldiers become proficient in using this weapon as soon as possible.

Mo Li was happy in his heart, and ordered the craftsmen to hurry up and make it in batches, working overtime day and night, and strive to equip this grenade to the troops as soon as possible, at the very least, to equip their own troops.

Just as he was giving the order, suddenly the guards came to report: "General, General Liu is here." ”

Liu Tianlu? What is he here for?
