Chapter 216: Explanation
On the battlefield, once you are seriously injured, it is almost like losing your life.
After all, in a place like the battlefield where there is a shortage of medical treatment, if you are seriously injured, it is almost like waiting for death! Even if they don't die, they will lose most of their combat power, and either way, it's a good thing for them!
After listening to Mu Yuan's words, the emperor walked down from the dragon chair very excitedly, and Mu Yuan also picked up the box and held it high above his head, so that everyone present could see it more clearly.
The others were very curious when they heard Mu Yuan's introduction, and when they saw the emperor's actions at this moment, everyone walked up under the pretense of protecting him, and they also saw the "grenade" that didn't seem to be lethal at all.
"Yuan'er, this ...... Grenades, are they really as powerful as you say? Able to seriously injure people within a radius of five meters? ”
The emperor asked with a little doubt, and Marquis Wuding was originally a little flustered because of Mu Yuan's words, but when he saw that the box was just a wooden handle connected to a black thing, a little disdain flashed in his eyes, and when he heard the emperor's questioning, he questioned along the way:
"Not really! Your Highness Yuan, don't be in the limelight at this juncture and make a big boast! Such a gadget, I'm afraid that it can't even blow up an ordinary mound, and it will also blow people up to serious injuries, and if you really want to use it on the battlefield according to what Your Highness said, isn't that child's play? ”
As soon as his words fell, the crown princess glared at him very unhappily, don't think that she couldn't hear it, the other party said that her son was too eager for quick success, and even disregarded the safety of the Northern Wu Dynasty......
"Marquis Wuding is right, sometimes, hearing is false, seeing is believing, so the minister implores the emperor to choose a random place to test this grenade to see if it is really as powerful as the minister said." Mu Yuan said neither humbly nor arrogantly, not taking the other party's provocation to heart at all.
And his confident and unhurried appearance made the emperor and other ministers secretly praise him, but the emperor still asked him again with his eyes, after all, if he really tested, this grenade is not as powerful as he said, it will not only damage his face, but also damage the face of the royal family!
After all, now Mu Yuan is no longer just the lieutenant of the Tiger Guard, but also his grandson!
Receiving the hint from the emperor's eyes, Mu Yuan's heart couldn't help but warm, although their grandfather and grandson hadn't seen each other for so long, the emperor's grandfather's love for him had not diminished at all, which made Mu Yuan even nod to him very firmly.
Seeing this, the emperor didn't say anything, but with a wave of his hand, someone picked a good place for him.
Seeing that the emperor really wanted to test the power of this grenade, Wu Dinghou was a little nervous and uneasy, and at the same time secretly made eye contact with some ministers, the military situation in the border city was urgent, Mu Yuan was simply delaying time by doing this, okay?
It's just that those ministers are usually in the same camp as him, but at this moment they are invisible, after all, they can see that the emperor is very interested at the moment, and once the power of the grenade is tested as Mu Yuan said, it will definitely play a key role in the next battle situation in the border city, and they will naturally not open their mouths to stop it at this time.
Realizing this, Wu Dinghou's face became even more ugly, but he did not open his mouth to remind the emperor of the urgent military situation in the border city, and in addition, he was also curious about the power of the grenade......
In any case, this can be regarded as a major breakthrough in the development of firearms in the history of the Northern Wu Dynasty!
After about a stick of incense, they came to a more desolate place behind the imperial city, and the emperor stood on top of the imperial city, and the eunuch and the guards carried the grenade to that place, and pulled it according to Mu Yuan's way.
"Bang!" With a bang, a big pit appeared in front of them, and dust flew all over the sky, but when the emperor saw the big pit about ten meters wide, he didn't care about the dust floating in front of him and on his body, but walked up to Mu Yuan very happily and patted him on the shoulder.
"Good! Good! Good! ”
Three good words in a row, the joy on her face was even more brilliant than finding her grandson who had been missing for many years, that appearance made the crown princess on the side couldn't help but look a little gloomy, but when she saw the smile on Mu Yuan's face, she smiled again, and then touched Mu Yuan's hair behind her.
"A-Niang's Yuan'er is amazing!"
Listening to the princess's simple but very sincere praise, Mu Yuan couldn't help blushing, and at the same time felt warm, full, and very satisfied in his heart.
Those ministers were still skeptical, but at this moment, they all had to congratulate the emperor, the Beiwu Dynasty got this firearm, why couldn't they drive out all the invading Xirong tribes?
Why should they worry that the Northern Wu Dynasty will not be able to last forever, maybe they will be able to capture the Southern Wen Dynasty and unify this continent!
"Hmmm! Yuan'er has really made a great contribution to our Northern Wu Dynasty this time! By the way, how did you develop this grenade? Also, how long will it take to produce it, but will it be sent to the border city? ”
The emperor asked happily on the side, and when Marquis Wu Ding saw the power of the grenade, his face turned pale, and he was lucky to hear the emperor's words at this moment......
But he forgot that the first time he saw the grenade, he was very disgusted by its rough workmanship, which was just a wooden handle and a black thing!
"Back to the emperor, this grenade was not invented by the minister, but developed by a friend of the minister, and was later developed by Luo Yukang and Guan Luan of the Weapons Clearance Department of the Ministry of War.
The process of this grenade shell is very simple, the most difficult thing is the ratio of gunpowder, the wrapping of gunpowder to prevent it from exploding due to bumps during transportation, and the production of the lead in it, the materials required are huge, and the quantity stored in the storehouse of the military department is also small, so at present, they have only made less than twenty ......."
Hearing Mu Yuan mention his son, Luo Shixian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, pricked up his ears, and when he learned that his son, who was like a gentleman, had done such a big thing quietly, he was completely stunned.
As for the military department, Shangshu still remembers these two people, after all, they were supposed to continue to stay in the Tiger Guard Army as soldiers, but because of their talent in transforming weapons, they were transferred to the Weapons Clearance Division and promoted to the main officer.
Now it seems that I was really prescient!
These two people actually came up with a firearm like a grenade, isn't the credit of their military department?
