Chapter 413: The World's First Musket

Now that you know what's going on, and then you can get things done, wouldn't it be easy! The Jiang couple no longer care what this thing is for, they can use it whatever they like, use this thing to poke the chicken nest, they don't even ask, as long as it is made, and it is made very well, so that the future son-in-law is satisfied!

Jiang Laofu'er looked at the drawings, pondered for a night, and the next day calculated how to make it and how to cut the material. As soon as the morning dawned, he went to Di Renjie and told him what he needed.

Di Renjie was also puzzled in his heart, he looked at the drawings and thought, "What is this?" However, no matter what it was, he still sent people to the city to purchase according to Jiang Lao'er's request, and prepared all the things he needed tenfold. Jiang Laofu'er told him that this thing was being made for the first time, and he had no experience, so he had to prepare enough materials to avoid failing a few times and missing the big thing of the Hou Ye!

After handling the matter, Di Renjie came to ask Wang Ping'an, what is that?

Wang Ping'an had seen a collection of muskets before, and there were two one-to-one imitations at home, although they both belonged to the kind that couldn't be fired, but he remembered the appearance, and drew it according to his memory, but whether it could be used well or not, to be honest, he didn't know the bottom of his heart!

Listening to Di Renjie's inquiry, he couldn't answer the result, so he had to pretend to be profound: "This is an artifact, an unprecedented thing, no matter how detailed I say it now, you don't understand, you can only wait for it to be made, you can see it, you will understand how to use it!" ”

Di Renjie sighed and said, "It can't be an iron pestle, right?" ”

"No, no, you can't guess anyway, so why bother with it!" Wang Ping'an said with a smile.

Di Renjie didn't ask anymore, but he kept thinking about it in his heart, what was that thing for?

On this day, Wang Ping'an did not order the army to set off, he himself took Ouyang Li into the city and bought the things needed to make gunpowder, of course he had never made gunpowder before, but what things to use, according to what proportion, he was clear, he had learned it in chemistry textbooks!

The next day, he set off again and headed for Longzhou.

The road is not far, if the cavalry gallops, it can be reached on the same day, but Wang Ping'an walked slowly, and walked for five days before arriving in Longzhou.

At this time, the weather was already very cold, the sky was overcast, and it looked like it was going to snow, and once it snowed, the road would be difficult. This gave Wang Ping'an a reason to continue his struggle, and he ordered his soldiers to go into the city to buy them under the pretext of preparing winter clothes, while he hid in a small village and began to tinker with gunpowder.

In the past few days, Jiang Laofu'er has not been idle, Di Renjie has made him a simple stove, the kind that can be installed in the car, the kind used in the army, and can repair weapons and horseshoes at any time.

Jiang Laofu'er used this stove to roughly make a few samples, and once he started to make them, he found that the musket thing seemed simple, but it was actually quite difficult, especially the small objects inside, in his opinion, they belonged to the category of organ news, and they had to be connected, otherwise it would not work!

After a lot of tinkering, several samples were wasted, and it wasn't until he arrived in Longzhou that he could be regarded as touching the doorway and ready to officially start making!

In a small village outside the city, you can stay for three days. That night, it snowed! Although the winter in Longzhou is not as early as the grassland, it can also be regarded as a cold northland, and this heavy snow is two days at a time. Both the city and the countryside were shrouded in white, and the soldiers all changed into winter clothes, waiting for Wang Ping'an to give the order.

On this day, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, the moonlight shines in the snow, the snow reflects the moonlight, it is a piece of brightness, and in the middle of the night, you can see the scenery several feet away!

The weather was cold, and the conditions in the small village were poor, so the soldiers went to bed early, leaving only a dozen scouts to roam outside the village to guard the safety of the army!

Suddenly, I heard a loud bang in the small village, and everyone heard it!

In the village, whether it was soldiers or ordinary people, they were all awakened by the shock, and they were extremely frightened, even if it was thunder in the sky, there was no such sound, and besides, what kind of thunder did it hit in winter!

This earth-shattering, weeping ghost and god loud sound shook the ground to the ground!

Di Renjie was so shocked that he fell from the bed to the ground, he got up with a grunt, and shouted: "Thunder in winter, this is a strange injustice!" Standing up, he said, "But why does it seem that the noise came from the courtyard of the eldest brother?" Putting on his clothes, Di Ren walked out of the house and looked into the courtyard where Wang Ping'an was!

It didn't matter what he saw, he jumped up and shouted, "Big brother, are you okay, why did the house collapse!" Screaming, he ran to Wang Ping'an's yard!

At this time, the small village was already in chaos, and the scouts all rushed back, shouting, and the rest of the soldiers also rushed out of the house and looked in the direction of Wang Ping'an's courtyard. Looking at it, everyone was shocked!

The soldiers shouted, "Oh no, big deal!" Thunder in the sky has knocked down the master's house! "Rushing to the courtyard, intending to rescue Wang Ping'an!

In winter, it was still the middle of the night, thunder, and the house collapsed, what kind of evil things had to be done to be so retribution!

Ouyang Li was the first to rush into the courtyard and shouted, "Master, are you okay?" Where are you ......"

Di Renjie then arrived, and before he entered the courtyard, he shouted: "Shovel, hurry up and prepare a shovel and dig out my eldest brother...... Yes! ”

The soldiers behind also swarmed into the courtyard, all panicked, if Wang Ping'an was struck by lightning, then they would have to be finished, not to mention whether God would repair them these dog-legged accomplices, that is, when they returned to the capital, the ministers of the court also had to repair them together for Tianxingdao!

But as soon as I entered the yard, I found that there were four people lying on their stomachs in the yard, lying in a high pile, and the top was Brother Yelujun!

The crowd shouted in unison: "Master, master? ”

I heard someone under the pile shouting, "I, I'm here, oh, crush me!" It was Wang Ping'an's voice!

Brother Yelujun got up and cried out, "Lord, the master is all right! ”

There was another person up below, it was Ke Lianwu. As soon as the little girl stood up, she raised her hand to the face of Brother Yelujun, slapped the ground, and scolded: "Bastard, so bold, you dare to lie on me!" ”

At this time, another person got up, but it was Ding Danruo, she stood up and took a step forward, came to Yelu Jun'er, raised her hand, snapped on the ground, and also slapped her, and shouted: "Who, who let you lie on my ...... Lying on Sister Ke's body! ”

Brother Yelujun was beaten so red that he knelt down with a plop and stammered: "No, no, no, the small one is not the reason, it is deliberate......"

Wang Ping'an didn't get up, he shouted on the ground: "Don't scold, hurry up and help me up, I'm about to be crushed by you!" ”

It didn't matter what he shouted, everyone present came back to their senses together, rushed forward, helped Wang Ping'an up, and asked, "Master, are you okay, have you been struck by lightning?" ”

Ding Danruo and Ke Lianwu were only frightened at this time, squeezed into the crowd, hugged Wang Ping'an and cried loudly!

Di Renjie shouted: "Don't cry yet, let's get down to business first!" Big brother, why did the thunder in the sky knock down your house, what are you doing in the house? ”

Wang Ping'an wiped the snow off his face, suddenly laughed, and said, "It's successful, I've finally succeeded!" ”

Ouyang Li was so frightened that he couldn't move, and thought, "Why is the master laughing, could it be that he is crazy?" ”

The soldiers thought to themselves: "It's over, the master was stupid by lightning, should we all score our luggage now and go our separate ways!" ”

The people in the village thought to themselves, "The house of the Li Chang family has only been built for less than three years......

Wang Ping'an smiled: "I invented a good thing called ...... Called that day thunder boom, it worked! ”

It turns out that he has been tinkering with gunpowder these days, but gunpowder is not enough to know the principle, it must be practiced, and the practice comes in, and it is not good if it is not in place, it has to fail again and again!

No matter how Wang Ping'an tinkered, he just couldn't hear a sound, and the gunpowder point could be lit, but no matter how he sealed it, it just wouldn't explode. The gunpowder didn't understand, but he understood a truth, failure is the mother of success! However, the mother of failure, pregnant with the son of success, is too long, and success can't be born!

That night, he took two little girls, and Brother Yelujun, and then tested gunpowder, but failed several times, he lost patience, and thought: "Others get gunpowder, it's so simple, you can use it when you mix it, how can it be my turn, but it's difficult to be like this, it's too inferior!" ”

In a fit of rage, he told Jerujun to fill the stove with all the gunpowder that had been made, seal the stove, leaving only the fuse, and then they went out of the house, stood in the courtyard, and lit the fuse.

Brother Yelujun is very obedient, he will do whatever Wang Ping'an asks him to do, never ask why, not like others, always ask why he wants to do this, why he does this, he never asks. Even if Wang Ping'an asked him to jump into the well now to see if the well water below was frozen, he could jump down immediately, and he would be obedient to this extent!

He sealed the gunpowder in the hearth, ran into the courtyard, and lit the fuse according to Wang Ping'an's instructions.

As a result, after the fuse burned into the stove, the ground exploded, and because there was too much gunpowder, the house collapsed!

Seeing that there was danger, the two little girls immediately pounced on Wang Ping'an's body, pressed him to the bottom, and wanted to protect him, but Brother Yelu Jun'er couldn't hold it down in time because he stood a little farther away, so he had to press on the two little girls, and this is what happened just now!

Wang Ping'an explained what is called a thunder explosion, how to explain it Others don't believe it, I have to say that he was hit by winter thunder, but God's eyes are not very good, he didn't hit him, he simply didn't explain the real reason, just talk nonsense, but it is easier for people to believe!

Wang Ping'an said loudly: "I ...... just now I did it in the courtyard, summoning the god of thunder to appear, and Lei Zhenzi that ...... You know who Lei Zhenzi is, right? I don't know, I don't know about pulling down. Anyway, I summoned him and let him strike a huge thunderbolt, and as a result, the house was knocked down, that's what happened, everyone understands? ”

If you had said that earlier, wouldn't we have understood earlier, how simple it would have been!

Everyone suddenly realized together, the master has always been known as the great saint, famous all over the world, tonight actually summoned the god of thunder, as a result, the god of thunder showed his true body, knocked down the house!

Ouyang Li sighed: "I see, the master actually has the ability to channel the gods, and he is really a capable person, omnipotent!" "He doesn't know what gunpowder is, just like modern people don't know what aliens look like, they can only guess, since the master gave a reason, he thought he guessed it!

Di Renjie whispered: "I thought there was some strange injustice, but it turned out that there was not!" "No matter how smart he is, he can't imagine the power of gunpowder, for him at this time, karma is more than gunpowder, which can make him believe more, at least Thor or something, so-so, even if the surname is Lei Zhenzi!

But the soldiers and the people all thought, "It turns out that the god of thunder is called Lei Zhenzi!" Well, this name is apt, you look at a dozen 'thunder', it will 'shake' and collapse the house', such an image, not called thunder, what else can it be called! ”

Since Wang Ping'an was fine, everyone was no longer panicked, and after a while, they went back to the house to sleep. Wang Ping'an changed the house, his heart was excited, and he didn't sleep all night.

The next day, Jiang Laofu'er came to him, and he made the musket and sent it to Wang Ping'an for acceptance.

If you want to talk about Jiang Lao'er's craftsmanship, it is really called cover, this musket is exactly the same as modern muskets from the outside, and it is the kind of musket that uses a trigger and flint, without igniting a torch, and can fire bullets with a press of the trigger. Of course, this is only from the appearance, but not necessarily whether it is actually good or not!

Wang Ping'an took the musket and rejoiced in his heart, it was finally done, it should be able to kill people, right? He took out a little more gunpowder, filled it with a musket, and put in a small copper pellet, which was cleverly made so that even if the mouth was downward, the projectile would not fall out.

After the preparations, Wang Ping'an called all the people to come and took them to the woods, intending to let his subordinates see the birth of the world's first musket and let them testify.

Everyone didn't know why, but Wang Ping'an asked them to come and see, so they came to see it together.

When everyone came to the outside of the forest, Wang Ping'an first asked people to go into the forest to check and make sure that there was no one, so everyone took a few steps back and stood behind him!

Raising his arm flat, Wang Ping'an aimed at a big tree ten steps away in front of him, and shouted: "Look carefully!" As he spoke, he pressed the trigger.

I heard a loud bang, a spark came out of the barrel of the musket, and black smoke erupted!

The big tree ten paces away, there was no reaction!

In the midst of the lightning, everyone thought, "What is this for?" ”

It was too late, it was fast, and in an instant, I saw that Wang Ping'an was about twenty steps away on the right side, and there was a loud click, and a big tree was hit, and a branch with the thickness of a teacup on the tree fell in response, and the snow on the tree fell with a bang!

Everyone wondered in their hearts, this, what does this mean, what is this, what are you doing?

Wang Ping'an snorted, is there any mistake, what kind of gun is this, the accuracy is too bad, where is it all off!
