Chapter 354: Supply
"Is this okay? If this weapon can really be equipped with the new army, wouldn't it be able to beat those steppe nomads all over the ground? ”
Looking at Ying Yun's excitement, Li Hang shook his head helplessly, in the end, he was a child, and he had never seen the vastness of this world.
"This world is very big, according to the records of my ancestors, on the other side of the ocean, there is a place that is bigger than ours, and there is only a group of natives living in this place, they don't know what is called etiquette, righteousness and faith, if Your Majesty can go to the four seas at that time, I don't mind letting the caravan go over there to see, if you can go there at that time, what a wonder you say it will be."
Li Hang really misses the Americas, after all, there are legendary high-yield crops there.
What potatoes, corn, tomatoes, etc. are endless, and good things like peppers are also needed.
Li Hang even wanted to get chili peppers right away, after all, in his previous life, as a person in Taizu's hometown, he was basically spicy and unhappy.
This pepper also has a good seasoning effect, and the most important thing is that I don't have the ability to set foot in deep water yet.
"You mean we're going to get this out? And then loaded on a ship? ”
At this time, Ying Yun can be regarded as seeing it.
A small projectile has this ability, if it is the same as what Li Hang said, how about it can be released?
Such a distance can easily penetrate the steel plate, and if it is enlarged, what will happen to that kind of wooden boat?
Obviously, as long as you put these things on the ship at this time, what will happen after that?
This is a huge cannon, and the opponent's wooden ships will be punched into a hole in an instant, and no matter where you are opened, it will be fatal at sea.
With such weapons, who else can oppose themselves at sea?
This large group of people all had strange expressions on their faces.
"Everyone, listen to me, this matter is the top secret of our workshop, if you let me know who leaked it, I will screw off your heads one by one." Wang Dali stared at these people viciously.
He didn't know how important this kind of thing was, but he knew that once this kind of thing fell into the hands of the enemy, it would be doomed, so he had to take care of this place.
Looking at the things here, Ying Lu became interested. "What's that powder?"
As a royal descendant, of course he has the right to know, and this kid is smart, at least half of the lessons he has learned.
"Ice becomes water, water becomes water vapor, and how many times does it expand in volume, and in the same way, once something changes from solid to gas, it expands exponentially, and that's how it works."
Li Hang looked at these people curiously as he spoke.
What will they think?
"You mean to give this to Grandpa Huang?"
"Hmmm! It's also an improved version.,Although the accuracy is not high.,But it's okay to use it.,Once the scale is formed.,Hehe! At that time, the people of the steppe were not a threat. ”
I promised to give the emperor a weapon, and I also said that this is just a weapon that has not yet been fully developed, so I still have no problem for the time being.
The Emperor also needs his own weapon improvement methods.
At least in this day and age, there's really not much they can do to improve it.
At least they don't have an idea.
A large crossbow bolt alone was enough for these craftsmen to think.
"This is just the initial form, when the waterwheel is arranged, the hydraulic forging hammer can be installed, we can assemble a thing, and this thing is the biggest coal eater here!" Li Hang glanced at the coal mines that were piled up like a hill next to the workshop.
These coal mines are the best for boilers.
"But you're really not afraid that those Turks are going to concentrate their troops to attack us?" Ying Yun gave Li Hang a strange look, and then his expression became strange.
"Of course, I hope they will fight, if they do, this place is not only garrisoned by border troops, our new army can be regarded as having seen blood, and it just needs a battle to enlighten them, but most importantly, they need this new weapon. When the time comes, we can use them to experiment with our own new weapons, and use them to give us exercises! "How effective is the new army, in fact, they already have some preliminary concepts, five hundred death row prisoners are actually not weaker than the Turkic soldiers of Wubai, even if there is no cavalry, this is nothing.
Those crossbow arrows and this kind of weapon that Li Hang said had not yet perfected were powerful enough.
If it could really be in a few years, Ying Yun would even believe that the Turks would come with an army of 100,000, and an army of 100,000 would fall here.
"In a moment, you'll make these things according to this." Li Hang drew a flywheel on it, which uses the force of circular motion to convert it into a force of transverse reciprocating motion.
That is, such a device can be used on various equipment such as pumps, and even looms.
As long as there was a steam engine.
You can easily do this yourself.
Of course, those who say Steam Ji are no longer among them.
"Let's go, the steel production can probably be calculated, and it will be expanded, unless we can increase the size of the workshop, but in this way, it will be about the size of a small town, and it is a closed town!" It's pretty much the same as the base for the nuclear bomb in later generations.
With so many people living there, it definitely takes a lot of supplies.
So the supply of materials in this area is definitely not a small matter.
"You're worried that those things won't be available?" Ying Yun seemed to understand what Li Hang meant.
Touching his chin, he shook his head. "I'm really afraid of this, you must know that there must be a lot of people here, and our main transportation routes here are in the Su family's water transportation, and now it is hard to attract Zhou Zhan. He's definitely going to get a piece of the pie too. So I'm going to let them play with this cement! ”
Cement paving is something that can't be done without a lot of money.
It's okay to do some research and make some money at this time, but at this time, you need a lot of money, not to mention that you can't take it out, I'm afraid that even the royal family can't take out so much money.
Don't think how easy it is for the emperor of this era. In these years, a lot of money was from the treasury, and a lot of the money in his hands was useful, which was the same as the budget of later generations, most of the money, in fact, after the collection was collected, had already decided the role of these things, but at this time, no matter who knew that a lot of money in the treasury of this era, most of it had to be used in a fixed place.
And the family that has stored a lot of money and food in this era is the best partner.
Release all the money stored in this family, you must know that the money of this year, if you put it in your hand, it is meaningless, but if it is used for construction, it is equivalent to making the money in their hands come alive.
"In this way, let's go out and talk to them, they have been thinking about it for a long time, and they just happened to see their decisions!"
