Chapter 318: The Power of the Musket
Zhong Qinghan stood in the position of the city tower, and saw very clearly from a high vantage point, under the dense gunfire, all the enemy troops who were close to the 20 zhang attack range of the musket team basically shot one by one, and those who were shot all fell to the ground and died.
"Shhh
Zhong Qinghan couldn't help but gasp, the terrifying lethality was not inferior to the bow and arrow. Although its attack range is not as far as that of a bow and arrow, its attack area is very wide, and the ammunition is scattered, especially after forming a queue attack, the enemy cannot dodge at all.
"Ziheng, the power of this flintlock pistol is too great. I'm afraid that in the future, other weapons will have to be withdrawn from the battlefield, especially bows and arrows. Zhong Qinghan said with emotion.
Su Ziheng shook his head and said lightly: "It's not so fast, the range of the flintlock pistol is still too short now, when can we make a gun with an attack range of one hundred zhang, and the power will increase several times, then the bow and arrow will completely withdraw from the battlefield." ”
Zhong was stunned for a moment, and asked incredulously, "Is there really such a powerful gun in this world?" ”
Su Ziheng smiled and said affirmatively: "Of course there is, Qinghan, have you forgotten that when you fought against the bandits in Sujiazhuang, didn't you still see that kind of yellow bullet?" That's the kind of automatic rifle bullet. ”
He said that he was talking about the AK47 used to kill the bandits in the mountains and forests, and later entered the base space in order to save Ji Xiaoxiao, leaving many bullet casings that did not have time to be recovered and fell into the hands of Zhong Qinghan.
Zhong Qinghan suddenly realized, "It turns out that you also used a musket at the beginning, since you have such a powerful gun in your hand, why do you still want to make such a backward flintlock pistol?" ”
Su Ziheng sighed: "Because our current technology can't make guns and bullets like that, naturally we can only use flintlock pistols." But don't worry, as our technology continues to improve, we will be able to make guns like that one day. ”
As for whether he can see it in this life, Su Ziheng doesn't dare to guarantee it. In the previous life, the earth evolved from flintlock pistols to AK47, and that was after three or four hundred years of development history.
The two chatted at the head of the city, while watching the changes in the battle situation below, under the fire blockade of the musket team, countless Haizhou troops fell in front of the musket team, and no one could break through to within ten zhang.
Zhong Qinghan's eyes emitted a dazzling bright light, "If our Black Crow Army is all equipped with such flintlock pistols, what other army can confront us on a frontal battlefield?" ”
Su Ziheng tugged at the corners of his mouth and said speechlessly: "Light cold, what you think is too simple." Not to mention that this flintlock pistol is not easy to build, even this ammunition is not easy to make, if you want to be armed on a large scale, you still have to wait for the invention of the steam engine, and then you can use the machine to mass-produce weapons. ”
Although Zhong Qinghan didn't know what a steam engine was? But I also understood that he said that he could not produce on a large scale for the time being, so he also extinguished this thought.
Under the blockade of the powerful firepower of the flintlock muskets, no Haizhou army could go beyond half a step at all, and even many soldiers turned their heads and ran away in fright as soon as they heard the gunshots.
Su Ziheng shook his head and smiled: "Qinghan, it seems that the battle situation here has been decided, and the next thing will be handed over to you, I will take a step first." ”
Zhong Qinghan was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "Now all the people below are from the Haizhou Army, where are you going?" ”
Su Ziheng smiled: "Of course, it's to take advantage of their inexorability to find their treasure house and empty their things." ”
"Do you know where their treasury is?" Zhong Qinghan asked in surprise.
"Haha, of course. After I assassinated Zhu Chao, I began to arrange for people to stay in Haizhou to investigate their treasure house, and when I entered the city just now, I had already received news that my people had found the location of the treasure house, and now I just need to rush over. Su Ziheng explained.
Zhong Qinghan nodded, "Then pay attention to safety on the road, Dongyuan girl, take care of your son-in-law." ”
Dong Yuanyu said with a solemn expression: "Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess." Whoever wants to hurt the son must step over the slave. ”
……
……
Along the way, Su Ziheng and Dong Yuanyu avoided the Haizhou army searching and approached in the direction of Zhenhai Wangfu.
Although the warehouse in Haizhou City is also full of things, it is full of worthless things. The real good things are stored in the treasury of Zhenhai Wang's Inner Mansion, and after more than half a month of exploration, Cai'er has already touched this route very well.
On the way, Dong Yuan Yu looked curiously at the ring on Su Ziheng's left hand, hesitated for a long time, and finally made up her mind to ask, "Childe, did you get the news through that ring just now?" ”
Su Ziheng raised the ring finger of his left hand and said with a smile: "Yes, although this looks like a ring on the outside, it is actually a communicator, which can be used for short-distance communication, and the effective range is within ten miles." Beyond ten miles, the quality of communication cannot be guaranteed. At present, only two have been made, if you want, I will give you another one when there are more productions later. ”
Dong Yuan was pleasantly surprised when she heard this: "Childe, can you really give me one?" ”
Su Ziheng said with a smile: "What's wrong with this, things are made for people." The one I have in my hand is the original one, which can only communicate one-on-one, and now I am developing a ring that can support communication with multiple people. ”
"Thank you so much, Childe."
This communication ring is a device developed by Su Ziheng in order to facilitate contact with Cai'er, and asked Pandora to imitate the walkie-talkie. Now Su Ziheng plans to add more functions to see if he can store many more communication numbers like a mobile phone, and then use the base as a signal transmission tower, so that the base can communicate smoothly within a range of ten miles.
"Let's go, let's go in through the wall on the left, and the treasury of the Zhenhai King's Inner Mansion is not far inside. Now there is chaos in the palace, which is just in our right place. Su Ziheng whispered to Dong Yuanyu.
When he raised his head and looked at the height of the lower wall, he was dumbfounded, the wall was nearly a zhang high, and Su Ziheng asked himself if he couldn't jump on the wall with his two hands and three legs. I was about to look for a claw hook from the base space to find out if there was a claw hook that was convenient for climbing the mountain, when I suddenly felt that my body was light, and I was already hugged by Dongyuan and jumped up.
Dong Yuan Yu jumped vertically and jumped, and had already jumped into the Zhenhai King's Mansion from outside the wall. Sure enough, as Su Ziheng expected, the place where Neiku was located was really quiet, and there was no one.
Dong Yuan Yu said curiously: "Strange, why don't you even have guards?" ”
Su Ziheng said indifferently: "There's nothing strange about it, this inner library is guarded by a very powerful mechanism, the iron gate at the door weighs more than a thousand catties, and people who don't know how to open the door can't open the door at all. ”
