After Jingwen left the palace, he returned home. And Dugu Xin knew that the matter of his cheap uncle was solved, and he was also relieved a lot. Duguxin has no feelings for her uncle since she was a child, and now that her father has just died, this uncle will immediately come over to snatch the position of the head of the family, which makes her hate it very much. Therefore, now she is also happy with this uncle's bad luck. And now Dugu Xin is also Jingwen's woman, theoretically speaking, it has nothing to do with the Dugu family in the future. And Dugu Mou was also officially passed on to his father, who is her younger brother, and of course she will have to curry favor with Jingwen for her younger brother in the future, so that she can give her younger brother a better future, and then revive the Dugu family.

"Lord Jingwen, you want the artillery we made!" Yuan Hua came to Jingwen's house and said.

"What? Is the artillery ready? Can you fight? Jingwen asked.

"Of course you can!" Yuan Hua said.

Then, Yuan Hua immediately got some parameters for Jingwen, and Jingwen was surprised when he saw it. When Jingwen saw these parameters, he immediately knew that what he had made Yuan Hua's research successful.

"Can you guarantee that there will be absolutely no problems? I'm going to ask the emperor and all the adults to see it, can you guarantee that there is no problem? If something goes wrong, I want your head! Jingwen said.

Yuan Hua immediately said: "There is absolutely no problem! ”

After Jingwen heard this, he was relieved. Jingwen knew that Yuan Hua was still relatively rigorous, which was a trait that a technician should have. And now that he has promised that there is no problem, then naturally there should be no problem. And Jingwen immediately invited Emperor Li Shimin. And the generals will go tomorrow to see some new weapons. Moreover, Jingwen assured that they would be surprised and able to change the pattern of future wars. And those generals naturally gave Jingwen face, and they were all ready to watch.

The next day, Jingwen took the generals to a desolate clearing outside Chang'an City. This is the place where Jingwen specializes in firearms, and it is called a firearms base. Not only firearms are produced here, but also firearms. And this firearms battalion is attached to the subordinate of the Datang Weapons Supervisor, and Jingwen also applied for the title of Wupin Sanguan for Yuan Hua. In fact, the court only paid initial attention to firearms, and did not really attach importance to gunpowder weapons. Those what novels, the emperor's ministers saw firearms. Pay attention right away. This is total.

Jingwen came to this world and had already made firearms, but the emperor and ministers should not have paid attention to it. Why, isn't it that the channels for the use of firearms are too narrow? First of all, for ministers who are well versed in military affairs. They thought it would be good to use gunpowder for an ambush. Because when it explodes, the earth shakes. But gunpowder is also very dangerous. Once it is not used well, it will be a thousand self-losses, and zero kills. And as a real general, he would never choose this kind of risk. And a weapon with a narrow purpose.

And the gunpowder in history, in fact, has been improved for almost thousands of years before reaching its peak in the Ming Dynasty. As for the previous use of firearms, they were not taken seriously. This is because the supporting things used in firearms cannot keep up. The ancients did not know how to make zuò missiles, and it took many years to make zuò missiles. And artillery, that is only available in the last years of the Song Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty. But at that time, it had been hundreds of years since the invention of gunpowder. Therefore, before the invention of these things that could make gunpowder exert great power, gunpowder was not really taken seriously, and at most it was used for civilian use. Judging from the fact that Li Shimin did not strictly guard the gunpowder, Li Shimin actually did not attach importance to this gunpowder. According to historical records, the earliest gunpowder was actually only used to alarm the enemy's war horses, and was not taken seriously. This is the historical limitation of the ancients, and it is impossible to know that muskets and artillery could be invented later, which is the factor that really brought the power of gunpowder to the extreme.

As for the grenades that Jingwen made, for now, they can only kill and injure those soldiers with weak armor, such as nomads. But once faced with those Han soldiers wearing heavy armor, the power was obviously insufficient. This is also the reason why the gunpowder in ordinary grenades is not very powerful. If it was those powerful gunpowder in later generations, the grenade would not be like this. Therefore, although grenades played a huge role in the Turkic battlefield, they did not receive attention. Because since ancient times, there have been more civil wars in China than foreign wars. Now that the Turks have been completely conquered, grenades are no longer taken seriously. Therefore, Jingwen's road to promoting firearms is still very long. At least, firearms will definitely not be valued until gunpowder has more outlets to exert its power.

"Jingwen, why did you let so many of us come here to see this thing? Isn't this gunpowder? You made a missile out of gunpowder, and this missile is good! But do you still use this gunpowder to make something different? And you are so excited to come over, so do you have something that alarms the world to make zuò? Li Shimin asked.

Jingwen immediately explained: "Your Majesty, although the missile is good, there are also his bad. Missile production zuò is relatively expensive, and the dispersion point is large. A missile hits out, who knows where it will hit, it is easy to be affected by the wind. Therefore, if you want to use missiles to achieve the desired effect, you must use a lot. ”

Jingwen has also studied a certain history of firearms, and of course he knows that in the primitive state, in fact, rockets and missiles are inferior to artillery shells. Historically, missiles were invented earlier than artillery shells, but later artillery shells gradually eliminated them. Why, isn't it because of the high cost of missiles and poor accuracy? It is more difficult to make a missile, and the technical content is relatively high, and the labor cost is a little higher. Coupled with the poor accuracy, if you want to achieve the same effect, you need more quantity, so the cost will be greater. Unlike shells, the cost of shelling is relatively low, and the time from launch to explosion is very short. The distance between the launch and the explosion of the missile is relatively long, so that the enemy can have time to hide. In addition, the missile attack angle is relatively large, and if the enemy is too close, it will not be able to attack. As for the shells, although there are dead ends, they are not as big as the missiles.

However, the missile also has its advantages, that is, it is easy to ignite, as long as there is a fire fold, it can be ignited and launched. And the shells must have artillery, and this is the disadvantage of the shells. However, in general, from the perspective of warfare, it was recognized in ancient times that missiles were inferior to rockets. If missiles want to be revived, then I am afraid that they can only be in the era of electronic technology and can have guidance functions. Therefore, this is also the reason why Jingwen wants to make artillery. Prior to this, the army used a small number of missiles for ordinary grassroots fire support, and artillery was used on a large scale in the middle level. Only when it comes to fighting in higher groups will missiles and artillery be used as appropriate. This is the method of mixing missiles and artillery in Jingwenxin, which can avoid blind spots in firepower. However, this method is not without its drawbacks, and there is a very fatal one.
