Ah Xue asked softly, "Mr. Sun, it's not the kind of organ in the past, what is it?" ”

The monkey said, "It should be a thermal weapon powered by gunpowder!" ”

What the?

Everyone's eyes widened. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The monkey's words are tantamount to a bolt from the blue. In the eyes of many people, the ancient Chinese tombs are full of mechanisms, zombies, poison gas, etc., but no one thought that there would be a mechanism driven by gunpowder similar to a thermal weapon.

In that case, don't we have no advantage in the guns in our hands?

You have to know some of the thermal weapons in ancient China, which could attack targets two or three miles away, such as a thermal weapon called "Fire Dragon Out of the Water" in the Song Dynasty. This is a weapon used by the navy in water warfare. Its principle is the same as that of modern rockets, which is to obtain a recoil force by ejecting a high-velocity gas stream backwards to propel the projectile body forward. The weapon was made of a thick bamboo tube filled with gunpowder and appeared to be capable of multi-stage ignition. After flying two or three miles on the water, it can burn or even blow up enemy ships.

And the Divine Fire Flying Crow that we often hear about, its effective attack range is also 300 meters. This weapon is made of bamboo strips, the belly cavity of the flying crow is filled with gunpowder, the tail is tied to the rocket, and the wings are based on the same principle as the kite, and in the process of rushing forward, they are affected by the atmosphere, producing an upward lift and increasing the distance of flight. When the tail rocket is ignited, the Flame Raven will fly over a distance of 300 meters and burn the enemy's camp to the ground.

Even in the era of thermal weapons like today, three hundred meters is not a small number, not to mention that the weapons at that time were mainly cold weapons? The role played by these most primitive thermal weapons on the battlefield can be imagined.

In fact, although the politics of the Song Dynasty were corrupt, at that time, its technology was at the pinnacle of the world. In addition to the assault rifle and the bronze firebolt, the more common thermal weapons are something similar to modern smoke grenades. The weapon, known as the Thunderbolt, is made of brimstone and quicklime rolled into a paper tube, and when ignited, the smoke shoots out to captivate the eyes of enemy people.

China is the first country in the world to enter the era of thermal weapons, although it has declined in modern times, but more than a thousand years ago, the Chinese have begun to initially use the principles of atmospheric dynamics and momentum.

Gunpowder was born in the furnaces of alchemists in the Tang Dynasty, and in the Song Dynasty it was made into weapons and began to be used in warfare.

By the time of the Ming Dynasty, there was even an army equipped with all thermal weapons, called the Shenji Battalion. Then the Qing troops entered the customs, and the Manchu Qing ruled China, and the development of China's thermal weapons entered a low ebb. Therefore, when the West invaded China, the Qing army would be defeated in one battle. Even if there were cannons at that time, many of them were left over from the Ming Dynasty. Whether it can be used or not is one thing.

The monkey snorted coldly and deliberately showed off: "Don't underestimate the technology of ancient China. Gunpowder is one of the four great inventions of ancient China, which originated in the Tang Dynasty and was widely used in fireworks in wars, mining, road construction, and festivals in the Song Dynasty. This is the tomb of the Yuan Dynasty, and it is not surprising that gunpowder appeared. Moreover, the place is dry, and the gunpowder will not resurge, and it can still be ignited even if it lasts for hundreds of years. If I am not mistaken, the other side of the stone slab laid on this stone bridge must be made of phosphorite. When a person walks on it, the temperature generated by pressure and friction will cause these phospholites to burst out of sparks, ignite the fuse, and then ignite the gunpowder in the musket, and the expanding gas will excite the lead bullet. Destroy the target. ”

Ah Xue said: "In this way. This mechanism is not easy to destroy? ”

The monkey nodded, "Yes! Because a slight collision can trigger a spark. ”

Li Yiqi seemed to be in a good mood at this time, he stood beside Ah Xue, and said in high spirits: "Since this stone bridge can't be walked, then let's take a rope to go over." ”

The monkey pointed to the opposite side and asked, "There is no place to tie the rope on the other side, how can I build it?" ”

A sneer suddenly came from behind: "You don't have to bother so much! If the gunpowder in the musket is exhausted, won't this bridge be walked? ”

I was taken aback, suddenly felt the wind on the back of my neck, and quickly turned around, only to see a burly black shadow already rushing towards me. A fist almost the size of my head slammed into my head with the sound of whirring wind.

Shocked in his heart, he hooked his head, pulled out the Miao knife at his waist, and stabbed the opponent's calf.

While~

There was a metal collision sound, and my arm shook, and the Miao knife was almost unable to hold it. It feels like cutting into the armor of a tank.

The shock suddenly turned into fear, the Miao knife was sharp, and the person's calf was cut by me like this, but I was afraid that it would have been broken a long time ago.

Staring at it, although Miao Dao was deeply embedded in the opponent's calf, it did not cut off.

With a strong hand, I wanted to pull the Miao knife back. But I didn't move at all, and the other party's flesh and blood were like life, biting my knife to death.

Suddenly, my back tightened, and the whole person was lifted in the air, and before I could react, I was thrown to the ground.

The brain is buzzing, and Venus is popping up in front of me.

Immediately afterward, a strong force came from my back, as if I had been trampled on by an elephant, and I almost vomited blood.

"What for?" Ah Xue drank softly, only to hear a bang, and the thing on her back was shocked, as if she had been hit by a gun.

"You'd better not move! Or I'll kill him!" A young, indifferent voice rang out.

The voice was not the voice of the people who had come before. I remember the voices of those people. It's someone else!

"The young master is here~" The people around began to whisper. All of them were respectful.

It turns out that this is the leader!

As soon as my eyes were dark, a young man squatted in front of me and said indifferently, "You kid is good!" The man who played trick on me seriously wounded two of my men. You're a good knife, I'll take it! ”

Hearing a sonorous sound, the Miao knife appeared in his hand. He glanced back at Ah Xue and them, and said lightly: "You all put down your weapons, otherwise my knife will cut off from this place!" ”

The back of his neck tingled slightly, and I knew that this guy had a knife on his neck.

Xue glanced at me, first put down her weapon, then Monkey and Xiao Ruo.

The others hesitated, then lowered their weapons.

The last to lay down their arms were Uncle An and Li Yiqi.

No-

I was struggling in my heart, but the strength on my back seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and I couldn't breathe.

Judging from this guy's expression just now, this bullshit young master feels that he is a ruthless guy, even if Ah Xue and the others put down their weapons, they are afraid that they will not be able to save me.

"It's all tied!" It's still that stinking tone. He said, "This mechanism doesn't need to be cracked. Push these people over, and we'll go when the gunpowder is gone! ”

"Yes!" The two of them agreed, escorted Ah Xue in front, and pushed her to the bridge.

How powerful is the mechanism on the stone bridge, if Ah Xue really stepped on it, he would not be able to die?
