Chapter 302: Live-fire drill

After soaring in the sky for more than ten minutes, the cavalry used the reins to control the pterodactyl to glide downward, and the perfect landing pushed the test flight to a climax, and all the onlookers erupted in cheers.

The cavalrymen led the winged dragons to the front of a group of civil and military officials, and the warriors who returned victorious were generally examined by the superiors.

Wang Lang got up and walked to these cavalrymen and said, "You have completed a perfect flight, from now on you will be the guardian of my summer sky, and from now on your unit will be called dragoons." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

More than a dozen cavalrymen saluted in unison.

"In the future, you have to practice more, fly as far as possible, and patrol the territory of my Great Xia in the sky, the task is arduous, do you have confidence!" Wang Lang said loudly.

"I'll position Your Majesty to protect the Great Summer Sky!"

The soldiers shouted excitedly.

Wang Lang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Take good care of your mounts, they will be your friends in the future, treat them like relatives." ”

In Wang Lang's words of encouragement, this test flight was successfully completed, and from now on, Xia Guo finally had a real air force.

With air power, as long as they become more proficient in flying skills, this dragoon, whether it is to deliver messages or to attack from the air, will be incomparably effective.

Due to the pterodactyl in this world, the dream of human beings flying into space is not as difficult as another world, and Wang Lang feels that this is his luck.

The children of Xia Kingdom, from this day on, in the hearts of many people, have a new goal, which is to become a proud dragoon and enjoy the feeling of soaring in the sky.

After that day, it was as if the air troops had disappeared from the crowd, and they were never seen again.

In the desolate place in the south, in the sky, dozens of pterosaurs spread their wings and flew high, and from time to time some stones would fall from the sky.

Whenever a stone falls on the ground, several people immediately run over to check the burning of the fuse stuck to the stone.

"At this altitude, the fuse has just burned out, and I think the distance of the bomb will be kept at this distance in the future." A young student said.

The other nodded and said, "Why don't we try it with live ammunition!" ”

"Well, I also want to see what the effect of dropping a bomb from the sky is."

After several people finished deliberating, one of them waved the flag in his hand vigorously, signaling the dragoons to land.

Since that day of flight, the dragoons have moved to this new base for bomb throwing training, and now they have been training with stones for half a month, and some of the more outstanding students in the Great Xia Academy Palace have also been arranged here, responsible for the work of the logistics troops.

When the dragoons came down from the sky and learned that they were going to train with live ammunition, they were all excited, they had enough of the boring thing of throwing stones from the sky, and they could finally enjoy it after staring at it for so long.

The logistics troops placed the newly made explosives package of the Ministry of Engineering on the back of the pterosaur and hurriedly ran away.

A young student, handing over the newly invented fire fold to the dragoons, said: "This is the fire fold, the contents can be kept for a long time, when you fly in the sky, you only need to open it, and if there is wind, it will burn, you use this to light the fuse, this process is very dangerous, you must be careful." ”

The dragoons, open the fire fold, blow it, and sure enough, you can see a little spark coming out of the head of this thing, which is very magical.

After listening carefully to the precautions, the four soldiers who volunteered to ride their mounts and flew into the sky again.

A dragoon who flew into the sky, skillfully controlling the pterodactyl, estimating the altitude of the flight, felt that it was almost over, carefully opened the fire fold, faced the air flow from the pavement, carefully lit the fuse of the explosive pack, and threw it down without hesitation.

The fuse on the explosive bag fell rapidly downwards with a "sizzling" flame.

When it was almost half a meter above the ground, the fuse burned out.

The "boom" explosion shook everyone's eardrums.

Immediately afterwards, several other dragoons also threw down their explosive bags.

However, not all of the explosives were successfully exploded, some of them exploded three or four meters from the ground, and some fell to the ground before they could explode, shattered, and the scattered gunpowder was ignited, and the gas was blazing.

Seeing this result, the people who were observing below couldn't help frowning.

Such an effect does not have much practical value at all.

"It seems that our thinking is a bit wrong, and it is unrealistic to want to control the distance perfectly." One said.

"Indeed, we should think differently."

"This explosive bag fell from such a high place, it is inevitable that it will break, why don't we think about how we can otherwise break the explosive bag." Another person spoke his mind.

This is when this group of people is researching how to maximize the effect of airdrops.

Yancheng, Wang Lang just got the news of Lin Jianya.

At the court meeting, looking at the document of the victory, I couldn't help laughing heartily and said: "This strong tooth really lives up to my expectations!" ”

"Your Majesty, but Mr. Lin has made good progress!" Kong Er asked curiously.

Wang Lang nodded and said, "All the ministers, spread it and take a look!" ”

The guards took the paperwork and handed it to Lin Huo.

"Minister! Lin Jianya, to meet Your Majesty, we have been on the expedition for nearly three months, we have occupied a large area in the north, captured 2,800 savages, and now we have begun to build a new city in a suitable place, I believe that it will not be long before we can reach the place where we left, and the minister is confident that by the end of the year, we will be able to completely conquer this jungle and advance the territory of our Xia Kingdom to the mountain range in the north. ”

After reading it, Lin Huo passed the document to the next person.

After all the officials circulated it, Lin Huo bowed and said: "General Lin Bing, I have increased the population for the expansion of the territory of Great Xia, what a happy event!" Congratulations, Your Majesty! ”

The rest of the officials also stood up one after another and said respectfully: "Congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

Wang Lang smiled and waved his hand, "Everyone, please take a seat!" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, now my Great Xia territory spans thousands of miles, if General Lin can really conquer the north, then it is not a dream for me to unify the entire Shenzhou Continent in Great Xia, thousands of miles of territory, countless populations, all need a large number of officials to manage, in the future, you need to cultivate a large number of talents for my Great Xia, and there will be your names in the history books in the future." Wang Lang looked at the Manchu Dynasty with great affection.
