210 Key Factors
"Childe, this explosives pack is very powerful, but it seems inconvenient to use it to attack the city, right?" Liu Daneng was behind Hu Guang, took a step sideways, came to his side, and asked suspiciously.
In his opinion, this thing is a sharp weapon for defending the city. When the other leaders heard his question, they immediately understood the key to it, that the explosive bag was too big and heavy.
When Hu Guang heard this, he turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Of course you can't hold it and throw it to the city, we can shoot it at the city with a cannon." ”
At this moment, everyone was frightened again. This explosive pack is big enough, and it is unimaginable that it can fire this explosive pack!
Hu Guang looked at their appearance, and naturally could guess their thoughts, and immediately asked with a smile: "Do you remember what I said before about a big killing weapon, called a conscienceless cannon?" That's what it uses to fire this explosive pack! ”
Hearing him say this, the leaders immediately realized. I've heard Childe say that there is a great guy before.,I've never seen Childe use it.,It turned out to be this.,Finally saw it!
"Let's go, let's see!" Hu Guang saw that the sky was about to get dark, so he whispered a few words to Zhang Zhaodi, waved his hand, and led the leaders to the east of the county.
Before he reached the city, he heard a muffled sound, which was not only smaller than the explosion of the explosive bag just now, but also less than the general's cannon. Everyone looked at each other, and they were even more curious about the unconscionable cannon. Isn't it supposed to be a big guy, why is it so quiet?
As soon as Hu Guang and the others went to the city, they saw Li Dingguo leading the backbone of several artillery companies to greet them.
When Liu Daneng saw it, he said in his heart, no wonder he didn't see this kid in the meeting just now, it turned out that he was hiding here to play with that conscienceless cannon.
"Childe, the experiments without conscience cannons have just been completed. Ready to sum up. Li Dingguo looked like an adult, raised his hand to salute, and then replied solemnly.
Hu Guang nodded when he heard this, and said to him as he walked forward: "Show them again, and you will also go out for actual combat training when you turn back." ”
Li Dingguo listened. There was a clear flash of joy on his face, and he said yes, and quickly ran back to his place, standing up to show the leaders.
Hu Hansan and the others looked in the direction and saw a big guy next to Li Dingguo. It's bigger than the average barrel, and it looks like it can fit into the kind of explosives bag you just had. The length is not very long, not even as long as the general's cannon. So this thing just has no conscience?
Next to the cannon was a bag of explosives like the one I had just seen. There are also some paper packets of various sizes, and some round wooden planks.
"Dingguo, what are these for?" Hu Hansan relied on his familiarity with Li Dingguo, and couldn't help but be curious, so he pointed to the paper bag and the round wooden board and asked.
He had seen the cannon in Xichengtou, but he had never seen these two things. Looking left and right, I couldn't find the powder box, so I was a little puzzled.
When Hu Guang heard this, he didn't wait for Li Dingguo to answer. He smiled and said to him, "When you demonstrate, explain it to them in detail." ”
"Yes. Son. Li Dingguo responded, and when he saw Hu Guang signaling him to start, he squatted down, pointed to the paper bags and began to introduce.
"There are propellants of different sizes here, and different amounts of propellants are mainly selected according to the distance of the enemy......"
As he spoke, one of the backbone of an artillery company next to him picked up the largest paper bag according to his instructions. As soon as he put it into the muzzle, he tore the paper hard, and the explosives contained in it fell into the barrel.
"Compacting the propellant, putting it in the plank, and then putting this explosive bag in. There are planks apart. Just avoid the danger of the explosive bag exploding in the barrel of the gun...... "Li Dingguo is really every step, as long as there is something special, he is carefully explaining.
"The fuse required for the explosive package is of different lengths, and the length is selected in advance as needed, and the cannon can be fired after the muzzle is ignited."
After Li Dingguo finished speaking, the subordinate began to light a fire to show them. When Hu Hansan saw it, he was so frightened that he jumped out, kicked off the torch in the man's hand, and shouted loudly: "Gongzi is still here, what do you want to do?" ”
Not only him, but many of the other leaders covered their ears and involuntarily stepped back. They were all frightened by the one in the square.
Seeing this, Hu Guang was a little dumbfounded, and immediately said with a smile: "Third child, what are you fussing about, if there is something, I will let you hide in the safety zone." ”
As soon as Hu Hansan heard this, he saw Li Dingguo and several of his subordinates looking at him in surprise, and he knew that he was excited, and he couldn't help but laugh.
When the other leaders saw it, they all looked at each other, which was quite embarrassing.
The fuse was re-lit, and after a while, a muffled sound was heard, and as a puff of smoke came out of the muzzle, the explosive bag flew out.
With Hu Hansan's lesson just now, no one dared to cover their ears, showing that they were timid, and they poked their necks out curiously one by one.
Unexpectedly, they waited for a long time, but they couldn't see the explosive bag fall at the foot of the mountain, and they didn't hear the earth-shattering sound in the square.
Seeing that Li Dingguo and the others, who were in charge of firing the cannon, looked unworried, Hu Hansan was depressed in his heart. Isn't that a bad thing, why are you still acting like a nobody?
Originally, he wanted to ask, but remembering what happened just now, he couldn't help it.
I saw Li Dingguo calmly announce to Hu Guangyu: "Childe, the demonstration is complete, this is the farthest range at present." ”
Hu Guang has been watching, and can roughly estimate that if he faces the high-speed charge of the cavalry on the grassland, he can only fire it once.
However, if other factors are taken into account, such as the power of the conscience cannon to interfere with the cavalry charge, it is difficult to say how many times it can fire, anyway, the speed is fast enough, and twice a minute should be fine.
Hu Hansan didn't ask, but Liu Daneng had something to ask: "Childe, if this cannon can't be fired, it's better to use the general's cannon!" ”
Hu Guangyi laughed when he heard this, walked over and reached out to pick up an explosives bag, took out a dagger, cut a slit and said: "It's not gunpowder, it's just dirt." This fake explosive bag is the same as the real explosive bag in the square in terms of weight and size. ”
When he said this, he said with a somewhat serious face: "The reason why this is so is because we lack gunpowder and have to adopt such an expedient measure. ”
After finishing speaking, he dropped the fake explosive bag in his hand, looked at the leaders and said seriously: "You have also seen the power of that explosive bag, but its power depends largely on the amount of gunpowder. That's why I'm emphasizing that when you go out on an expedition, you pay attention to the collection of gunpowder raw materials, you know? ”
When everyone heard this, they all nodded solemnly. Hu Guang used facts to tell these guys who have been fighting with cold weapons that gunpowder is extremely important. (To be continued......)
