There are more than 300 people in the siege camp of the forbidden army, standing in the martial arts field with anxiety, and they were actually allocated to the wolf army by Cai You with an order, which is a bit unbelievable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, firearms gradually attracted the attention of the military and the imperial court, and there was a "Guangbei Siege Works" in Tokyo, specializing in the production of various engineering props and equipment, of which firearms were listed as a priority research and development group.

"Firearms group, three hundred and sixty people, one master craftsman." Lin Chong looked at him and asked, "You are Tang An?" ”

As the eighth generation of the gunpowder family, Tang An was entrusted with the master of the firearms group. This time, he was taken to the northwest by Tong Guan to prepare to show his skills, but he didn't expect that the whole army would be controlled by the wolf army without firing a single bullet.

Later, I heard that Cai You, the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, had negotiated with the Wild Wolf Army and would soon be able to go home safely, but I didn't expect to be pulled out alone to accept Lin Chong's questioning.

Tang An is thin, in his early fifties, and his hair is already gray, as an old man, it is inevitable to maintain a low profile. So he bowed his head and lowered his hand, and replied respectfully, "It's the villain!" ”

"You are the only one on the list, you are a master, what are your skills?"

Tang An looked at Cai You with some uneasiness, all he had in his hands was the top secret of the Great Song Dynasty. When they were in Tokyo, they were greeted by the Imperial City Division and the Ministry Division, and they dared to divulge the secrets of firearms, even the nine clans. Everyone is in Tokyo, and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense.

"The villain is good at refining all kinds of rockets, fireballs, and thistles."

When he said this, Tang An couldn't hold back his excited and proud look. In his opinion, looking at the gunpowder experts of the Great Song Dynasty, except for the Shi family, who can barely be regarded as opponents, nothing else is worth mentioning.

"Can you demonstrate these three things?"

Lin Chong did not know much about the current firearms to that extent, according to the memory of later generations, a variety of firearms began to develop in the Song Dynasty, and were also widely used in the military.

However, the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty perished under the iron hooves of the Jurchen and Mengyuan one after another, although the power is not known, but this result shows that gunpowder firearms did not exert their due power at that time.

Tang An looked at Cai You again, this kind of public demonstration of firearms was not the power he could have.

Seeing Tang An looking at himself and not moving, Cai You realized that this was a silent request and waved his hand. "In the future, Marquis Lin's orders, everything will be done, and there is no need to ask for instructions!"

With the endorsement of the deputy envoy of Xuanfu, Tang An immediately took more than a dozen people to set up the demonstration venue.

Everything was ready, Lin Chong beckoned from Tang An, "Let's start"

Rockets, Lin Chong's troops have been equipped and used, and even an upgraded version of the ballista version of the rocket artillery has appeared. Seeing that Tang An launched the large, medium and small rockets separately, in addition to the bang, the lethality was not great.

Fireball is a powder ball mixed with various porcelain pieces and iron sheets, and the intermediate medicine is twisted through a thin bamboo tube, which can be held and divided into explosions, smoke, poisonous gases and other types. Lin Chong judged that this could probably be regarded as the world's earliest grenade, but the killing efficiency was too low.

When the thistle terrestris was finally released, Lin Chong was a little interested.

In his judgment, such a complex explosive should be regarded as an earthen mine. Although because the purity of gunpowder is not enough, the power is not high. However, in this era, it has been very rare to use the impact force after the explosion of gunpowder to burst all kinds of iron porcelain pieces at high speed at the enemy, especially for cavalry, which has a certain lethality and deterrence.

Looking at Lin Chong's careless demeanor, Tang An's authority was obviously hit, he regarded the honor of the family as his life, and after the demonstration, he stubbornly asked, "The villain has finished the demonstration, I don't know what the Hou Ye has to say!" ”

Lin Chong didn't have much interest in this kind of old-fashionedness, and said bluntly, "It's okay to demonstrate and see, but once it's actually combat, it's like chicken ribs!" ”

This evaluation made Tang An's eyes red, as the eighth generation of the Tang family of fireworks, he was like Mount Tai Beidou in gunpowder.

Today, it was said to be a dispensable thing by a junior boy, and if it was passed on, wouldn't he become a laughing stock?

"The villain is the eighth generation of fireworks Tang descendants, when it comes to building firearms, I think there is no one in the world who can compare, since the lord looks down on him, can he dare to compete with the villain?"

Cai You saw that Tang An was angry, and regardless of the provocation of Lin Chong, he reprimanded, "Bold, what is the identity of the Hou Ye, he is simply disrespectful, and he will not retreat!" ”

Tang An then turned around and walked back. Before he could take three steps, a mocking voice came from behind him.

"The frog at the bottom of the well dares to look at the sky! With these broken copper and iron of yours, you want to be the first in the world? I, accept your challenge and let you know what is outside the sky, and there are people in people! ”

Cai You knows that Tang An is the operator of the Jinmingchi fireworks on the first night of the year and the Tianchang Festival every year, and the fireworks have been inherited for three hundred years in the Tang Dynasty, and they can indeed be called the grandmaster level in the gunpowder journey.

He didn't know why Lin Chong accepted Tang An's challenge, could it be that Lin Chong was such an impulsive person?

The rockets, fireballs, and thistles demonstrated today are just conventional firearms, and their power is indeed limited. However, everyone said that it was the eighth generation, that is, the family, and it must have its own unique skills.

He lowered his voice to dissuade, "Brother Xian, this fireworks Tang family is indeed a three-hundred-year-old family, with a profound heritage, I don't know how many unique skills are hidden, are you too reckless?" ”

Haha, if you don't say it's unique, forget it, as a young man in the 21st century, if you don't accept it, you will be scared! Since you proposed a competition, then I would be disrespectful.

"Thank you brother for reminding me, I know it in my heart, you can watch the show!" After talking to Cai You, he turned to Tang An and said, "Since you have made a challenge, you should always have some color, right?" I don't know what the Tang family can do? ”

Tang An was stunned, does this Hou Ye want to make a profit? He said, "The villain is just a craftsman, with a meager income and no longevity." However, there are still 50 acres of land in the suburbs of Tokyo, if the Hou Ye can see it, how about using it to make a color head? ”

Fifty acres of land, even if the location is poor, should be worth five thousand taels of silver, which can be regarded as Tang An's staking of all the family property for the honor of his family.

"Yes. I also have a glass workshop in Silverbeach, half of which is worth at least 50,000 yuan. Well, if you win, half of the glass workshop is yours. ”

Everyone was even more shocked, the glassware and handicrafts produced by the Tokyo Glass Workshop were ingenious, and they were much better than the glass glass and other items handed down by the clumsy Hu merchants of the Western Regions. Lin Chong only quoted a price of 100,000 yuan, and everyone's general reaction was too low.

Tang Anxin was shocked, Lin Chong was actually more ruthless than himself, and tens of thousands of workshops said to throw it away. Not to mention winning or losing, few people can compare with this temperament alone.

"Dare to ask the sir, what kind of firearms do you want to compare?"
