Chapter 253: The Effect of Butterfly Wings

The camp of the Jin Army.

In the king's tent, Huang Taiji was thinking about how to break the pass, and suddenly there was a loud bang, and the earth shook, which frightened him to jump up, grabbed his sword and rushed out of the tent, grabbed the guards guarding outside the tent and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The entire camp was startled by the sudden explosion, instinctively thinking that it was the Ming army attacking the camp, and all of them grabbed their weapons and rushed out of the tent, and the whole camp was in chaos.

Soon a guard came to report that it was the craftsmen of the rear battalion who had accidentally detonated the gunpowder when preparing the gunpowder, but fortunately the prepared gunpowder had already been transported to the warehouse for storage, so there were no catastrophic consequences. However, the two dozen or so craftsmen who were in charge of preparing gunpowder and the dozen or so soldiers who guarded the workshop all hung up.

Huang Taiji personally came to the scene of the explosion to check, the simple workshop for preparing gunpowder was blown up, there was a large black pit on the ground, there was a mess all around, some slaves were busy cleaning up, and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, the power of the explosion was really scary.

He had a regretful expression on his face, but instead of deploring the dead craftsmen and soldiers, he felt sorry for the materials used to prepare gunpowder, the lack of materials outside the customs, all relied on conquest and looting everywhere, and the other was to rely on the eight families to secretly respond, now the eight families are finished, the Ming army is very strict, all kinds of military supplies cannot be transported out of the customs, life is not very good, this is good, a bomb will lose most of the half, can it not be painful?

The accompanying princes and high-ranking officials were also pale and bloodless, all of them were frightened by the power of the explosion, but the brains of the people who reacted quickly were already spinning rapidly, if they could create super-large caliber guns, loaded with more gunpowder and huge projectiles, could they collapse the walls of the Ming army with one cannon?

Everyone's eyes lit up, and it seemed like a really good idea.

Huang Taiji called the craftsmen who made guns and cannons and asked if they could build the possibility of a super cannon.

All the craftsmen are the people of the Ming Dynasty, but they were forcibly captured by the Jin army, and under the coercion of the sword, they helped the Jin man to make guns and cannons, but most of them are only good at striking iron, forging swords and other weapons, making guns and cannons is a bit difficult, and there are only three blacksmiths who really know how to make firearms.

The Ming Dynasty is still a conservative era, so there are church apprentices, starve to death masters, pass on men not women, when the master will leave a hand of unique life not to the apprentices, all taught, the rice bowl can be smashed, the three blacksmith masters each left a hand, not all taught to other blacksmiths, even if those blacksmiths study hard, they only learn a little skin, plus the level of smelting technology, raw materials and other restrictions, the output of guns and cannons can be imagined how low.

The three leading blacksmiths discussed tremblingly for a while, and then carefully replied, theoretically, it is feasible to cast a super giant cannon, but it requires a huge amount of refined iron, and the quality of refined iron is a big problem, and the raw materials needed alone are a huge pit, and after the result, they have to carry out many live ammunition test firings, consuming a huge amount of gunpowder, this is another huge pit, the eight families are finished, the Ming army is very strict, and it is difficult to get the raw materials for preparing gunpowder, even if it can be obtained, the quantity is very small, and it is not enough for the musketeers to use.

Aside from all the restricted problems, today's cannons, with slightly larger calibers weighing thousands of pounds, are already very difficult to transport, the weight of the super cannon can be imagined, whether it can be moved is a fatal problem, and when you transport it to the front line, it is estimated that the daylily is cold.

Huang Taiji let out a sigh of incomprehension, waved his hand to let the craftsmen retreat, although he occasionally did some bastard things, but not faint, his mind was very clear, after a little thought, he felt that this thing was not feasible, at least according to the current conditions, it was impossible to get it, not to mention the technical problems, just the raw materials needed were very fatal, and the resources outside the plug were too scarce, and this single business was not cost-effective at all.

"Great Khan, the minister has thought of a solution."

Fan Wencheng, the royal soldier, suddenly slapped his thigh, and he also carefully inspected the scene of the explosion, and after asking some details, he suddenly possessed the spirit, and his brain flashed, and he thought of a simple way to save trouble and money, that is, to gather a large number of powder barrels and pile them, and then light the fuse, it is estimated that it can also blow up such a power, if it is stacked under the city wall and detonated, the cliff can blow up a section of the city wall.

"He is worthy of being my military advisor."

Huang Taiji quickly made up for it, couldn't help laughing, and praised Fan Wencheng without hesitation, this method is really good, not only simple and convenient, very practical, but also saves a lot of raw materials, this idea is very good, very good, he likes it very much.

The princes and belles in the king's tent were also happy to laugh, as if they had seen the Ming army's city wall being blown down, the army slaughtered into the city, gold, silver, jewelry, beauties and wine and so on, so cool that they couldn't be more cool, and they couldn't be more happy, and they couldn't wait to attack the city now.

"This matter is not urgent, Rong Zhen thinks about it again, before the current task, he will make every effort to prepare gunpowder for storage." Huang Taiji was very happy, but he was not dizzy, he still had to consider all kinds of details, which point to use as a breakthrough, the follow-up actions after conquering the city, etc., of course, the most important thing is to prepare a large amount of gunpowder storage first, which is the key work now.

Digging tunnels to bury explosives to blow up the city is a common tactic used by the Taiping army to break the city, and now it was born in advance because of an accidental explosion, if Zhu Jian knew, I don't know how he would feel in his heart?

At this time, Zhu Jian, surrounded by a group of court warriors and palace maids and eunuchs, was standing on the steps of the main hall and watching the grand ensemble of the royal ensemble orchestra he had made.

After the military reform began, in order to enhance the effect and show the heroic military might of the new army, he decided to hold a large military parade, and the heavy responsibility of accepting the review of the troops fell to the Royal Guards Regiment and the Royal Guards Independent Battalion.

The two new armies are currently carrying out tense queues, new salutes and other exercises, the military parade phalanx in World War II is stepping, the German army and the Soviet army are the most powerful and majestic, he uses the Soviet army's positive step kicking, but some small adjustments, when stepping, the Soviet army is the angle between the legs is 90-100 degrees, he changed to a 30-45 degree angle, swinging arms and flat chest.

The big military parade, of course, there must be a majestic and majestic, majestic, inspiring military song as the opening song, he likes the military song of the Soviet Army in World War II "Holy War", the music is majestic, majestic, makes people's blood boil, difficult to self-control, he hummed the music, the musicians in the palace are basically the level of the big level, it is not difficult to listen to the music, the difficult thing is how to ensemble the majestic and magnificent, majestic and majestic momentum.

He also likes the drum rhythm of the military song "The Most Powerful Red Army", not only to integrate into it, but also as a signal and drum rhythm for the soldiers to advance, the current musket power is destined to only implement the tactics of queuing and shooting, and the soldiers step on the drum to advance, which can well maintain the formation and ensure the density and power of the platoon gun bombardment.

The lyrics, Zhu Jian directly copied the lyrics of the military song of the Revolutionary Army and made some minor changes.

The wind and clouds rise, the mountains and rivers move, and the hot-blooded men should be from Rong.

The flag is shining, the golden drum is sounding, and the dragon and tiger are majestic.

Jin Ge Iron Horse, a hundred battles on the battlefield, loyal to the monarch to defend the country and protect the homeland.

Sweep vertically and horizontally, rejuvenate China, and make great contributions to invincibility.

Treat each other with all sincerity, the regiment is strong and self-reliant, loyal and concise to annihilate the enemy Kou Kai sings.

The song and lyrics have been tinkered out, as for how to blend into a majestic, majestic, and blood-boiling mighty military song, that's the musician's business.

After tinkering with these things, percussion instruments were also a big problem, and some improvements and updates had to be made.

Thanks for the suggestion, hehe.
