Chapter 138: Go all out to build a thunderbolt

It will be very tragic at that time, so that those arrogant Jin Kou will be killed and injured countless times, like wild dogs fleeing in the wilderness, which is really happy.

looked at the white-haired chief craftsman excitedly, and sure enough, the person who can use his brain is more powerful.

Prime Minister Li Gang was also very happy when he heard this, the thunderbolt cannon actually had such a great lethality, it could fly dozens of meters away and blow things into pieces.

Even the stones are like that, and if they are hit with the armor of ordinary soldiers, they will probably be shattered, and the corpses will be splashed.

I admired him very much, and my face and eyes were full of excitement.

I have long heard that the craftsmen in the barracks are good at writing and martial arts, and the weapons they design are very good, and their heads are also very flexible, and they are really like that.

Shouting loudly, "Okay, that's great!" The talent of Chief Craftsman Tu is really admirable, he really repelled the Jin soldiers, and he will give you a great credit, and he will be fully promoted in the army of the Song State and defeat the Jin State. ”

"I wonder how many firearms you have built, and whether they are enough to defend the city this time?"

Tu Fei, who was full of white hair, was a little hesitant and said, "In our workshop, we can produce 7,000 crossbow gunpowder arrows, 10,000 bow gunpowder arrows, and 20,000 leather artillery guns every day, which is good."

Qin Feng laughed, making them feel a little strange.

I thought to myself, it was really nice that there were so many crossbow gunpowder arrows, bows and gunpowder arrows, and some artillery.

Most of the Jin countries use cold weapons, and they can definitely blow them up and kill countless people, and those who lack arms and legs will return with a miserable defeat.

The commander of the Ma army made Di Wu not so proud, but he knew about the crossbow gunpowder arrow and the bow gunpowder arrow.

They are ordinary crossbows and bows, with a pack of explosives bolted to them, which can be fired, and they are also meant to ignite the fuse.

The power of the gunpowder explosion can kill several people at once, and the power is also very large, much stronger than ordinary bows and crossbows.

But the people of the Jin Kingdom are not stupid, in the previous confrontation, they have created a stronger iron shield, but they can block these gunpowder arrows, and they advance slowly.

When the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom climbed the tower, they could kill a lot of people, but if the iron shield blocked it, it would be troublesome.

Li Gang knows these gunpowder arrows, and they are okay, and the daily production quantity is not bad.

However, the main thing is the thunderbolt, which is the real killer weapon, which is so lethal that it can definitely blow through a solid iron shield.

He smiled and said, "Master Tu, how many thunderbolts have you produced?" How much can be produced in a day? ”

Tu Fei is a little hard to say, the quantity produced is really small.

"Report to the Prime Minister, although the Thunderbolt Cannon had a rough model a month ago, and its lethality is huge, it has only started mass production in the past two days, and there are only two thousand in total, and only one thousand can be produced in a day."

"It took half a month to create the best Thunderbolt iron shell, but the thickness and length must be very good to fully exert its explosive power, and the metal materials used are not only iron, but also mixed with other metal materials, so that it can be so suitable."

"It took almost half a month to ponder the composition of the gunpowder inside, test it back and forth thousands of times, and there were some accidents before the proportion was figured out and the gunpowder could be successfully mass-produced."

When Li Gang heard this, it took so long to make two thousand thunderbolts, and the effectiveness was too low!

said: "I thought you were so powerful, you have already made tens of thousands, and in a month, you have only made two thousand, which is too little!"

"It's a shame that you could have reported to the Privy Council for such a long time, and let them wholesale more silver and materials and make them on a large scale!"

Qin Feng and the others also sighed a few times, what a pity.

Tu Fei, the chief craftsman of the firearms workshop, didn't know how to answer, he also wanted to make it on a large scale, protect my Great Song Dynasty, and slaughter the Hulu who invaded the country.

With a heavy face, he said: "Report to the Prime Minister, the villain is not doing nothing, but he also notified the senior official and asked him to test the tone of the Privy Council, after all, after the matter is clear, it will be easier to do things."

When Li Gang heard him say this, he felt that he was wrongly blamed, thinking that he was slowly delaying production here and not reporting it, isn't it stupid?

"You go on, say all of that."

Tu Fei bent down slightly, saluted him, and gave himself a chance to explain.

"After the senior official arrived in the Privy Council, he also proposed to develop a more lethal weapon, that is, the Thunderbolt Cannon, which is already on the drawings, as long as it takes more time, it can be made more perfect, and it can also start the initial construction!"

"When it was mentioned that the cost of thunderbolt cannons was more than ten times that of those gunpowder arrows, the Privy Council refused, saying that the cost of producing thunderbolts was ten times that of those rockets, and it was simply a waste of financial, manpower and material resources, and the gains still outweighed the losses, and the Song Kingdom was now too peaceful to be so extravagant and wasteful."

"Even if the Privy Council agrees, the household is in charge of the silver, and it will not allocate the silver to build it, the imperial treasury is empty, and the displaced people from all over the country are continuous, it would be good to be able to maintain it, how can there be silver to build a thunderbolt?"

After Qin Feng heard this, he felt that he really didn't blame this chief craftsman Tu Fei, but blamed those officials who were short-sighted.

Since for the sake of those silvers, I gave up building such a powerful weapon, the thunderbolt, but it can save the Great Song Kingdom.

If the imperial court really has an empty treasury, it will be involuntarily.

The commander made Di Wu sigh fiercely, and it was these mediocre and incompetent civil officials, especially the household department.

I don't know where to move the silver of the imperial court, but even such a good weapon is not made on a large scale with silver.

Li Gang also sighed heavily, the crux of the problem is still in the imperial court, those big officials, not the craftsmen in his workshop, have done their best.

If it weren't for his secret development, it is estimated that not even a thunderbolt would have appeared.

looked at him excitedly, his eyes were full of tears of excitement, he was really a loyal man for the country.

He bent down and bowed to him deeply.

Said: "It's me Li Gang who is incompetent, blame the chief craftsman, I thank you for the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, and thank you for the people, thanks to you for producing the thunderbolt cannon, this is a heavy weapon that can save the Great Song Dynasty."

Tu Fei was frightened by his respectful salute, and quickly reacted and saluted him.

"Prime Minister said seriously, it is my job to develop and produce lethal weapons, even if I encounter difficulties, I should continue to serve the Great Song Kingdom."

"Please take back the gift! The villain can't afford it, the court appoints adults, it is the real luck, it is a rare virtuous prime minister, and he will definitely defeat the Jin Kingdom and protect the peace of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Both of them also put away their gifts, looking at each other like friends.

Qin Feng and the others were also very moved to see it, and the feeling of people in the same way.

Li Gang is grateful, it's time to get down to business, the situation is urgent.

Said: "Master Tu, you said that there was no silver allocated to you, so how did you make these thunderbolts?" Can more be made? ”

Tu Fei smiled and said, "The above deliberately did not allow the construction of thunderbolts, on the one hand, it costs too much silver, and on the other hand, it also feels redundant, I didn't expect it to be used so soon."

"In fact, with the materials stored in the workshop, a lot of thunderbolts can be made, but other firearms will have to stop and can no longer be produced, but there are millions of gunpowder arrows."

"Now the production of thunderbolts is slow, and those firearms can barely be produced, but not half of what they used to be."

Qin Feng also understood, in fact, with the materials and conditions in the workshop, he could make a lot of thunderbolts.

However, most of the materials here will probably be exhausted, and everything else will have to be discontinued.

Li Gang also understood, if he used up the materials here, he would definitely be able to make a lot of thunderbolts.

It is better not to worry about white silver, and I am not good at communicating, so I can't get too much silver.

As long as the materials here are exhausted and the situation of the Great Song Dynasty is solved, it can be regarded as a success, the materials can be bought again, and the silver can also be transferred.

shouted: "Chief Craftsman, I also order you to make all your efforts to build a thunderbolt cannon immediately, the more the better, even if all the materials here are exhausted, you must build it, and the quality must be the best."

"The other firearms will be stopped for the time being, anyway, they are enough, I will bear the responsibility if something happens, you just have to produce it with all your might."

Qin Feng and Di Wu were also happy, the prime minister was really a loyal person for the country, very crisp, and very decisive.

Tu Fei, who was full of white hair, was also happy, he had been waiting for this day for a long time, but his best firearms must be made more and exert real lethality.

Those who invaded our land will be like evil bandits, and they will surely blow them to pieces and flee in disarray.

"Villain Tu Fei, he must try his best to build a thunderbolt, even if he uses all the materials that can be used here, to make more thunderbolts, order people to build them day and night, and also send people to watch over them day and night to ensure that the best firearms are made."

"Now, the number of thunderbolts made in a day is about 1,000, if all the workshops are building, thousands can be made during the day, and then at night, 24 hours, tens of thousands of thunderbolts can be made, and the lethality is huge."

After listening to his words, Qin Feng felt really surprised, he could actually create tens of thousands of thunderbolts, and his lethality was absolutely extraordinary.

A single thunderbolt is enough to blast a few meters of surrounding things to pieces, not only human bodies, but also stones.

In a few days, that's tens of thousands, and that's still it! The winner is decided.

Li Gang and the others also shouted again and again, with so many thunderbolts, it will definitely make the golden soldiers come and go, and they will be blown to pieces.

The Great Song Dynasty is hopeful, and it can also improve its military strength.

Of course, I also admired the wisdom and management of the chief craftsman Tu Fei, and let his craftsmen build it day and night, but I didn't expect it.

After those excited polite words, he was also doing business.

Tu Fei led them to a workshop specializing in making gunpowder, which was a workshop for making firearms.

When I got there, I smelled a lot of gunpowder, and it was everywhere.

In this gunpowder workshop, there is also a lot of gunpowder.

Some of the gunpowder had already been made, and the big bags were piled up there, and some were filled with large vats.

There are also a lot of materials, such as pine resin, pine yellow, sulfur and the like, which are used to mix and proportionally configure gunpowder.
