Chapter 578: It's Really Heartbreaking (8)

"They can look like they were raised in front of you."

"Good morning, Mr. Bai." Qi Ke first took off his mask and saluted, and then put it on, "This is fate." ”

"What's wrong?" Cheng Feng pointed curiously at the magical face.

"Choke."

Qi Ke pointed in the direction of the entrance of the village, and it was sealed.

"Now you know the difference between a cannonball and your little cannon, right?"

"I realized it." Qi Ke touched his uncomfortable throat, "The smell of the shell after the explosion, the spicy eyes and nose and throat, it can be seen that this is an inferior shell." ”

"Huh? Can you smell this? ”

"Well, there are impurities in the medicine, it's not pure, and it's not as good as my explosives bag." The advantage of a slight improvement in the sense of smell is that Qi Ke feels that he may really have a dog nose, "What about Uncle Chen?" Did anyone send someone to pick up shell fragments on the beach? Is the fragment big? ”

Before the words fell, Lu Chen happened to come in from outside with a dustpan, which contained fragments of cannonballs picked up from the beach, of different sizes.

"Mr. Bai, this is a part of the shell fragments that I picked up."

Lu Chen's face was not very good, and after Lao Jiu Ye and Cheng Feng fiddled with a few pieces, their faces also sank together, only Qi Ke didn't understand the reason for their change of face, but he didn't rush to ask, and waited quietly.

"This fragment is smaller than after our shells were blown up." Cheng Feng was silent for a moment and said.

Qi Ke suddenly felt a drop of sweat on his forehead, and exchanged a surprised look with Zhaolin, who was standing by the door.

The fragments of military artillery shells are larger than those of the sea pirates, and the amount of gunpowder in the shells is either too small or not powerful enough, and the lethality of the shells is weak.

Qi Ke also complained about the short range of Haikou's ship guns, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face at this time, and the artillery of the Bai family army was even worse.

"Fortunately, the pirates didn't come ashore, and they left after the bombing."

"This shows that the number of pirates is limited, and there are many people who need to drive ships on large ships with cannons, and they have already lost fifty or sixty people at a time, and they also understand our combat effectiveness, and they will not come to fight head-on again without the certainty of victory, and they can't swallow this breath, and they will show off their strength with a few cannons." Chengfeng's hundred generals were also promoted by virtue of military merits, although they don't know much about naval warfare, but the truth is the same.

"Mr. Bai, what should we do next?"

"Pack up the pieces, I'll send someone to the county, the pirates' artillery is superior to us, let the adults above take a look."

This is to ask the court for money and cannons, it is one thing for the court not to give it, and the reason why they want money must be given.

Lu Chen nodded in response, handed the dustpan to the others to take down, and packed up all the shell fragments.

Qi Ke looked left and right to see that it was none of her business, she was pulled by the old village chief to see the excitement, and she wanted to leave again at this time.

"I'm interested in the gunpowder used in this shell, can I scrape some crumbs?" The reasons are also ready-made.

"Go ahead." The men had no objection.

"Is Mr. Bai here for lunch at noon? I'll let the inn prepare the food in advance. ”

"No, let the inn prepare some dry food, I'll leave after watching the scene, and I'll be busy when I go back."

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

Qi Ke said goodbye to everyone, first went to scrape a lot of gunpowder crumbs on the fragments of shells, and then took the animals around the inn, on the surface it seemed to tell the inn to hurry up and make dry food, but in fact he went to comfort Cao Jin's family, but the people were still calm, they were scared when they bombarded, and when they quieted down, they found that there was no follow-up, and they calmed down again.

Qi Kena is also quite impressed by other people's calm skills.
