Chapter Sixty-Nine: This Thing Is Fried Cow Dung
When she found Mo Xiaoqi, she was studying the topographic map of Hutou Mountain, and Zhao Hongyi pushed the door and startled her.
"Xiaoqi, take the children and come with us, the army under the mountain is going to bombard the overlord village with artillery." Zhao Hongyi hurriedly said.
Cannon? Mo Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, in her cognition, there should be no cannon in this world.
Just as she was thinking, there was a loud bang, and the cannonball fell to a certain fortress in Overlord Village.
"Little chess, hurry, let's go." Zhao Hongyi gritted his teeth and hugged the sleeping tree, and was about to run out.
But Mo Xiaoqi stopped him and said: "There is a hole in the closet, you go from there, and the tree will be handed over to you, I must go and tell Tu Zifei and let them hide in the air-raid shelter." ”
At this time, she can't abandon them, she can't do it.
Zhao Hongyi gritted his teeth, looked at the stubborn Mo Xiaoqi, pulled the sheet and carried the tree on his back.
"Master, I'll come." Flying Eagle said hurriedly.
"The tree is my child, and I want to protect him myself." After Zhao Hongyi said this, Mo Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't have a seizure.
"Xiaoqi, go, I'll go with you, since you want to save them, it means that they are worth saving." Zhao Hongyi dragged Mo Xiaoqi out of the door.
When Tu Zifei was found, Tu Zifei was already stunned by the cannon, how could he have such a weapon? More powerful than a sword! It was able to bombard the fortress of the Overlord Village.
"Tu Zifei, hurry up, let everyone evacuate to the bomb shelter." Mo Xiaoqi was in a hurry, and at this time, a cannonball fell in the distance and exploded with a bang.
There was a deep pit on the ground, Tu Zifei was anxious, whistled, and the people nearby gradually gathered towards him.
"Everyone, hide in the bomb shelter!" Tu Zifei roared, and everyone began to retreat to the air-raid shelter to the north.
The entrance of the air-raid shelter is not large, but the inside is very strong and wide, and there is a tunnel leading to the outside of the overlord village.
This is all done in the past few days with the expansion of the cellar.
Mo Xiaoqi followed into the air-raid shelter, and seeing everyone's panicked appearance, Mo Xiaoqi hurriedly comforted: "Don't be afraid, everyone, it should be an ordinary cannon, and the range should not be far from the sound, and the accuracy is not high." ”
Seeing that everyone was still panicked and confused, Mo Xiaoqi hurriedly said: "This air-raid shelter is very safe, as long as you don't fire shells into the hole, there will basically be no problem." You can rest assured. ”
If the calm Mo Xiaoqi surprised Zhao Hongyi, even he had only heard of the cannon, but Mo Xiaoqi knew so much, which really surprised him.
"Boss Mo, how do you understand the matter of that mountain cannon?" Even more surprised was Feiying, who was surprised by Mo Xiaoqi's erudition.
Mo Xiaoqi said in a deep voice: "I happen to know." By the way, are there ready-made fireworks in the stockade? ”
If there were fireworks, she could try her hand at making cannonballs, and if she could, maybe stop the troops.
The fat man came out and said, "There happens to be fireworks left over from the festival in this cellar." ”
Yes, this bomb shelter was originally a cellar!
"But what are you doing with fireworks?" The fat man didn't understand.
"You don't care, just take it." Mo Xiaoqi said in a deep voice. The fat man brought fireworks in Tu Zifei's angry glare.
Mo Xiaoqi dismantled the fireworks, only needed the primer and gunpowder, and then found a wine jar slightly larger than a palm.
In her previous life, she grew up in the countryside, and her friends often took advantage of the Chinese New Year to pick up firecrackers that did not explode, and then disassemble them to gather gunpowder.
In addition, dry soil and the like are stuffed into small bottles layer by layer to make cannons to blow up the silt in the fish pond and the cow on the road.
The cannon made from a small bottle can only blow up cow dung, and a slightly larger one can blow a large hole in the dried silt in the fish pond.
If the production is successful, the Overlord Village will be able to fight back against those armies.
Soon, Mo Xiaoqi made an earthen cannon out of a wine jar with his childhood memories.
"Tu Zifei, you find someone, use a flint to ignite this primer, and then use a trebuchet to throw it in the direction where the cannonball is coming from." Mo Xiaoqi continued to make after teaching Tu Zifei how to operate.
Zhao Hongyi frowned and said, "Xiaoqi, what are you doing here?" Can it be done? ”
"It's just a simple cannonball, if it can be done, everyone will be saved." Mo Xiaoqi said casually.
Improvised shells? Zhao Hongyi was a little stunned, and a little surprised, Mo Xiaoqi should really be his Zhao Hongyi's woman!
A quarter of an hour later, Tu Zifei came back with a look of surprise. And the occasional explosions outside actually stopped.
"Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, it's done! This thing is so powerful! ”
He followed Mo Xiaoqi's teaching, found an observation platform, and used a trebuchet to throw the ignited cannon at the position of the opponent.
Sure enough, there was an explosion on the other side, and there was no sound of shells again.
Wang Desheng was so angry that the cannon was blown up and failed! The shells were put in, and they could only shoot a few meters away.
And he had to wonder, is there also a cannon in the overlord village?
If so, why now?
If not, then what is it that just exploded next to the cannon?
Wang Desheng picked up the explosives that shot far away, picked them up and took a closer look, and it was indeed a fragment of a wine jar. What's the situation?
He wasn't sure, so he had to send someone down the mountain to ask Zhao Zimu.
Taking advantage of this gap, Mo Xiaoqi made a lot of wine cannonballs.
Everyone already admired her, but now they are even more impressed, and even Qingqing, who has always been hostile to Mo Xiaoqi, praised her.
"Xiaoqi, why do you make such a thing?" Zhao Hongyi had already thought clearly in his heart that if nothing else, Mo Xiaoqi would change the fate of the entire Hongguo.
If she can design and make cannons, maybe Hongguo will be even stronger.
Mo Xiaoqi said casually: "When I was a child, I made this with my friends and used to fry cow dung. ”
Fried cow dung? Such a powerful weapon was actually used to fry cow dung? Zhao Hongyi couldn't cry or laugh.
If Mo Xiaoqi knew his thoughts, he must be very helpless, you must know that in modern society, even fried cow dung is too low-level.
"Xiaoqi, while there is no movement outside, let's hurry up!" Zhao Hongyi dragged Mo Xiaoqi and was about to leave.
was stopped by Tu Zifei: "No, she can't go with you." ”
"You're qualified to stop me?" Zhao Hongyi glared at Tu Zifei.
Mo Xiaoqi said helplessly: "Okay, it's not safe to stay here all the time, let's go together." Tu Zifei, you have to take everyone to hide in the mountains for the time being. When the army is gone, you will come out again. ”
As soon as Tu Zifei heard that it was reasonable, he immediately ordered him to go down and go into the mountains.
With their familiarity with Hutou Mountain, everyone walked through a dangerous section and entered a cave deep in the mountains.
