Chapter 546: Immortal Achievement
With just the two of them, can they make gunpowder that is hundreds of times more powerful than the current gunpowder?
Li Feibai has confidence is a good thing, but Wang Feng doesn't believe that it can be made. But he couldn't bear to blow Li Feibai's confidence, and said: "Even if you make gunpowder that is hundreds of times more powerful, you don't leave a mouth at the end of the cannon, and what method do you use to ignite the gunpowder." ”
Li Feibai said with a smile: "Actually, I want to cooperate with Lord Wang, and I want to make two kinds of gunpowder instead of one." One is the powerful gunpowder, and the other is the gunpowder that explodes when you knock it, let's call it a primer for the time being! ”
Wang Feng was puzzled: "Primer!" ”
Li Feibai seemed to have been talking to Wang Hong, but the rest of his eyes kept staring at Yang San and Deming. found that when he talked about the gunpowder that exploded as soon as he knocked it, Yang San and Deming's expressions were obviously wrong.
This made him even more determined, Yang San and Deming knew how to make the gunpowder he said, at least he had seen the gunpowder he said.
Li Feibai pressed the ecstasy in his heart, and continued to speak quietly, even he didn't pay attention to it, he became more and more excited.
"To the primer! To put it simply, it is a very unstable gunpowder, which will explode when squeezed or collided with a little more force. Lord Wang, you can imagine it......"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands and gestured, and after describing the basic structure of the cannonball, he continued:
"The primer is at the bottom of the shell, and when you hit it with a ram, the primer explosion ignites the explosives in the shell. The huge thrust generated by the explosives, pushing the warhead out. This is done entirely in a confined space, one can imagine, how far can the warhead fly? ”
He just spoke cheerfully, asking questions that didn't need to be answered.
"The more explosives in the shell, the greater the thrust, not to mention pushing the warhead out of 3,000 steps, even if it is 10,000 steps, there is no problem. Let the firing range of the artillery be increased twenty times, I am already conservative! As for increasing the power of artillery by a hundredfold, it's even easier!
Just as a primer is added to the bottom of a shell, a primer can also be added to the front of the warhead. The warhead is filled with powerful gunpowder, the front end is loaded with a primer that will explode if it hits, the warhead flies out of the barrel, a parabola falls, the warhead hits the ground directly, the primer explosion ignites the explosive, the warhead is divided into five parts, forming tens of millions of fragments, how many enemies can be killed and injured? ”
He licked his dry lips and said, "If you want to increase the power, you can also put small iron balls in the warhead, and at that time, the iron balls will fly in all directions, and they will be affected within a radius of 100 zhang." Lord Wang thinks about it, the current Franc machine is a cannon, but it can hurt the land of Zhang Xu. And this kind of artillery can spread to a hundred feet with one shot, is it a hundred times more powerful than the Franc machine! ”
Everyone was stunned again, and three questions popped up in their hearts one by one:
"Who am I?"
"Where am I?"
"What is this guy talking about?"
Although they didn't understand many of the words Li Feibai spoke, they could roughly understand the context!
Yang San and Deming showed irrepressible excitement on their faces, and muttered in their mouths: "Can you really make such a cannon?" ”
Guo Xun was completely intoxicated with the power of the cannon that Li Feibai talked about, if he could really make such a cannon, the Ming Dynasty would ...... He turned his head and said, "Lord Wang, what do you mean, are you willing to cooperate with Li Feibai to invent such a cannon." ”
Wang Hong was also very excited. If there is really this kind of cannon that Li Feibai said, how can the Francophone people entrench in Tuen Mun for so long. How could he fail to attack Tuen Mun for the first time, or use all his scheming to imitate the Franco cannon of the Franco, manufacture it in large quantities, and finally rely on the advantage of quantity, which drove the Francophone out of Tuen Mun.
If there is such a cannon, the number does not need to be large, even if there is only one, the Franc machine man is not an opponent!
He very much wanted to cooperate with Li Feibai to build this kind of cannon. However, he quickly and with great self-control, he personally extinguished the fire in his heart.
He thought about it a lot, almost all of his life.
Wang Hong is self-aware, with his cooperation with Li Feibai, he can invent gunpowder that is 100 times more powerful? In his opinion, this is tantamount to a fool's dream.
It's like someone said to him, why don't we keep increasing the length of the ladder and build a ladder to the sky!
The cannon Li Feibai talked about is indeed attractive enough, if it can really be made, he will definitely make an immortal contribution to the Ming Dynasty. With this credit, it is impossible to imagine how far the official position will rise in the end.
But it's nonsense that gunpowder can't be made. How could he waste such an impossible thing with a limited life? He has been stumbling for too long, and there is no more time for him to waste, so he still relies on the Franco machine to steadily and steadily rise up, as for the rapid promotion by virtue of immortal merits, I don't want to think about fishing for the moon in the water!
He said: "My lord, it is naturally good that the cannon that Li Gongzi thinks can be made, if you invest a huge amount of money and waste endless time, but the bamboo basket is empty, how will it end then!" ”
Guo Xun also calmed down at this time. The Franc machine is much more powerful than the artillery currently used, and it is really unrealistic to force itself to build the artillery that Li Feibai said when there is no powerful gunpowder at all.
Besides, if this kind of artillery could really be built, Li Feibai would have built it himself a long time ago, so why bother to seek cooperation with Wang Hong. Now Wang Hong has no intention of cooperating, even if he is afraid that cooperation will still not be created, if a huge amount of manpower and material resources are invested, it will not be created in a few years or more than ten years, and it will inevitably be impeached by endless people with endless twists and turns, why bother to cause this kind of trouble? This matter can only be stopped!
He yawned.
This is the meaning of sending off guests, Wang Feng arched his hand, and said: "It's not too early, the lower officials will retire for the time being, and come back another day to disturb the Taibao!" ”
Guo Xun waved his hand.
Wang Feng led the people to leave, and Li Feibai also stepped forward to retire.
Guo Xun left him to go back to the Taibao Mansion to rest, Li Feibai was only afraid that he would not have the opportunity to meet after saying goodbye to Yang San and Deming, so he was willing to stay. It is inferred that the rules of the Guozi Prison are strict, and if he does not go back, he will not be able to explain, so he will resign and leave.
When he walked out of the door of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, there was no trace of Wang Feng and his party, so he asked the soldiers for the direction where Wang Feng was going, and ran away.
After running for about a mile, I suddenly heard the faint sound of horses' hooves in front of me, and through the faint light, I could see that several people were leading the horses slowly, and looked at the back of Wang Hong, shouting: "Lord Wang, stay here!" ”
Wang Feng was frequently persuaded by Guo Xun to drink during the meal, he overeaten, got on the horse and drove for a while, and his stomach was upside down. So he dismounted and walked, and walked back to dissipate his food.
Hearing someone shouting behind him, he was wondering who was shouting, and when he looked back, Li Feibai had already rushed to the front.
He arched his hand and said, "It turned out to be Li Gongzi, I don't know what to call me!" ”
Li Feibai smiled and said, "There's nothing else, it's still about cooperating with you to build artillery!" He glanced left and right, and saw that the tea house had not yet closed, and said, "Please also ask Lord Wang to sell face, let's talk while drinking tea!" ”
Wang Hongchu thought that Li Feibai was like him, and wanted to fight for the future by making firearms, so he was quite hostile to Li Feibai. Later, I learned that Li Feibai was a businessman who made firearms only to sell them for money, and there was no conflict of interest with him, so there was no hostility.
Later, I listened to Li Feibai's whimsical ideas, and felt that Li Feibai had bold ideas, and he had the ability to dare to think that the ancients did not dare to think. He already has a soft spot for artillery, and Li Feibai has a lot of insight into artillery, so he has a good impression of it.
Therefore, I was very happy to see Li Feibai chasing him. Hearing that Li Feibai was chasing him in order to continue to cooperate in building artillery, he couldn't help but hesitate.
