? Chapter 366: Stealing the camp is a 'door' technical job
Notes written by Mingren Shen Defu "Wanli Ye Won Chapter. The Red 'Mao' Yi records the Red Yi cannon cast by the Dutch: "The first sight of a wisp of green smoke, these few hands are rotten, there is no trace to be found, slowly sail away, do not break a sword, and the dead of the officers and soldiers are no longer counted." ”
Nan Juyi, the governor of Fujian in the Ming Dynasty, recorded in the recital of "The Beginning and End of the Affair of Chen Fujian": "Seeing the surging sea, all difficulties are encountered. The boat is strong and big, and it can poison people ten miles away, and my boat deserves to be shattered. That is, there are 100,000 water rhinos, and there is nothing to do. ”
Chen Jiru's "Evening Xiangtang Collection" volume 3 "He Fujian Nanda Zhong Chengping Hongyi Preface" recorded: "The giant gun is the long skill of Hongyi, and it can poison people twenty miles away. ”
Mao Ruizheng's "Huangming Xiangxu Lu" volume 5 "Helan" recorded: "The Dutch big gun is more than two zhang long, and the middle void is like a four-foot wheel cloud. ”
Shen Guoyuan's "Two Dynasties from the Letter" recorded: "Hongyi cannon fired ten miles, all of them were broken, although I have a sharp blade, I can't fight with the enemy, although there are sharp soldiers, I can't fight." ”
From these records, it can be seen that whether it is the so-called Hongyi cannon, the big gun or the giant gun, or the current general cannon and the red-clothed cannon, it seems that they are all extremely powerful artifacts, as if, if you have such a sharp weapon in hand, you must be able to conquer the world.
But is this the case?
As an army that longs to be armed with artillery, he knows best. Da Ming's knockoffs, not to mention for the time being, are the guns he took from several armed gunboats in Langton, these are the products of the advanced casting technology that represents the West, these guns installed on the ship, the range of the 'firing' is only more than two miles, and the shells used are basically all solid iron pellets, which are 'fired' out by gunpowder, and it is impossible to count on how much damage it can do. I had seen the aftermath of modern military naval operations on TV, and when I saw this sea artillery 'firing' for the first time, I was really disappointed.
At the beginning, the imitation artillery of the craftsman battalion did not focus on those legendary powerful general cannons, red-coated cannons, although now pig iron is good, copper is good, Yu Feng is not very scarce, but the smallest general cannon is also five or six hundred catties, as for the red-coated cannon, it weighs more than three thousand catties, such a big guy, in the absence of enough technicians, technical reserves, Yu Feng is not even thinking about making his own.
All, as soon as the fight began, he focused on small artillery, and in his imagination, like Napoleon's army, he was already satisfied with running around the mountains with a few carts and trots pulled by a few wheels. The limitations of the times, 'sexuality', are not what he wants to create.
Fortunately, a lot of silver was filled in, and the craftsman battalion finally came up with some achievements, although it was the little brother in the Ming Dynasty's artillery series, and the tiger squat cannon of thirty or forty pounds was already a very gratifying thing for Yu Feng, who had no long-range firepower. Although this kind of small cannon pouts with two claws, the muzzle is upward, not very cute, but in any case, its appearance directly took away the favor of Yu Feng, which has been monopolized by a swarm of bees, after the successful test 'shooting', Yu Feng quickly increased production capacity, and it was possible to equip this kind of artillery to his own troops.
At present, although it is only equipped to the unit of the 1000 households, if possible, Yu Feng still wants to equip it to 100 households, so that the 'mixing' of a modern hot weapon and a cold weapon into a unit will basically be completely finalized.
It's far away, but it's back to this artillery. Take the tiger squat cannon as an example, Yu Feng doesn't know what the data of this kind of artillery is in the Ming Dynasty's military department and engineering department, but the classics he can find, such as "Fire Attack Essentials", say that Chinese firearms "can't be cast, and their big weapons are just divine power, and the tiger squats to destroy the captives, and the small weapons are just three-eyed fast guns." All of them are short, they don't have much 'medicine', they don't go far from the bombs, and they are difficult to hit without a license. The gun pond is wide on the outside and narrow on the inside, not round and not clean, and the bullet is not closed, the bullet is not fast and straight, and there is no violent force. If the head is heavy and has no ears, it will not rotate, the tail will be thin and light, and the 'medicine' will be too tight, that is, it will explode upside down. ”
Moreover, in this "Fire Attack Essentials", it is very clearly listed that the 'firing' range and effective killing distance of the Tiger Squat Cannon are converted to more than 200 meters.
From this point of view, although there are a bunch of 'faults' above, if there is really such a 'shooting' range kill, it is also bearable. But what about the test shot?
Due to the caliber of the muzzle, after filling some iron sand, it was necessary to use a larger projectile to suppress the iron sand, and the craftsmen were very unanimous in recommending that iron balls should be used instead of iron balls. And it is a stone ball with a mass that is a few times lighter than an iron ball, and it is only a few tens of meters when it is fired out.
These few meters are still 'shooting' range, and the real killing range must be smaller, and Yu Feng's face was black at that time. By the time the craftsmen swore to ensure that this was no less than Yu Daming's 'color', Yu Feng's face might not look much better. Yu Feng directly used the data in the book to ask them, and the master craftsman was immediately indignant: These readers know a fart, but they know bragging!
So, Yu Feng completely understood that the artillery of this era, it is estimated that the records of later generations are somewhat untrue, that is, these records are now also untrue, and there are many imaginations out of thin air, and the artillery at this time, the East and the West, are almost the same, and the bull is not 'forced' anywhere!
However, he understands that it does not mean that the generals under him all understand that the people of this era are still in awe of this kind of big guy who makes a huge noise and can kill and injure many people at the same time, for example, the generals of the Western Route Army who are now staring at each other with big eyes and are at a loss for each other.
"Even if there are cannons, what! Don't we also have tiger squat guns? Although it is small, it is much stronger than a swarm of bees! Mu Shi comforted several of his subordinates, "In the distance, we have a swarm of bees, and in the near distance, we bombarded it with tiger squatting shells a few times, and then used fire guns, these tartars are not poured with steel and iron, what is there to worry about!" ”
"Can our cannon be called a cannon? It's almost impossible to call a small cannon! Sun Fatzi said to himself: "Compared with other people's general artillery, it is nothing!" ”
"Or, I'll lead the men out and rush out, and if the Tartar artillery is behind, I'll serve them in a nest, lest they wait until they reach the camp on the opposite side and come to plague us?" Liu Xiaoliu is not afraid, but the fool also knows that if the other party's cannon is transported to the opposite side, it will be a big threat to the Fengzi battalion.
"No, let's not talk about whether you can rush over or not, even if you can rush over, how can the opponent's artillery team not have a large team of men and horses to escort it, this is absolutely not good!"
"This can't be done, that's not going to work, is it possible, let's just wait here, wait for the Tartars' cannons to arrive, and then we rely on our guns to 'shoot' at their cannons?" Liu Xiaoliu was a little irritable.
"Waiting is not waiting!" Mu Shi shook his head, since there is such a possibility, then, the best way is to defeat the enemy in front of him when these cannons have not yet arrived, then, no matter how sharp the enemy's cannons are, there is no use!
"Even if the Tartars have cannons, no matter how powerful they are, they don't have a chance to use them, it doesn't mean that there are no cannons!" Mu Shi's eyes turned around on their bodies, and slapped the table fiercely: "Let's strike first!" ”
He raised his head: "If the Tartars don't come to steal our battalion, is it possible that we can't steal their battalion, and besides, we don't want to steal the battalion, just go directly to him to fight, their big battalion is there and won't run, our people pull out and fight with them?" ”
"Fight?"
"Fight!"
Everyone's eyes burst out with a wave of fighting intent, if they can defeat the other party tonight, then the cannon or something, there is no need to worry. Moreover, if the camp is attacked with all its strength at night, the advantage of the Tartar cavalry will be greatly reduced, but the advantage of the flexibility of the foot soldiers will be greatly increased. Of course, everyone knows that Mu Shi's decision was not a decision made with a hot brain. With a swarm of bees equipped with rockets, it is simply too violent to go out at night to kill people and set fires.
As long as it is quietly sent to the enemy camp within 100 meters of a swarm of bees, think about it, thousands of rockets flying into the local camp, and the Tartars will not be allowed. Of course, if they don't run to the front camp, but directly scatter the girls and leave, then, when the horse team plays a role, impact a few back and forth in the enemy, if these Tartars can still withstand the nest without blowing up the nest, not collapsing, then everyone will accept their fate, and when the day comes, everyone will die!
"That's it!" Everyone said in unison, "Please give the order!" ”
"Okay, Rong Qi, you take your people, an hour in advance, clear all the ranger outposts near my camp, don't be afraid to 'make' the movement!"
"Yes!"
"Sun 'Yu' Ping, after you have rectified the people in your headquarters, you will transfer all the swarms of bees and tiger squatting cannons of thousands of households to your command, and your task is to protect these swarms of bees and tiger squatting cannons, and after the swarm of bees 'shooting' is completed, the tiger squat cannons will guard the opponent's big 'gate'!" When you're done shooting, retreat to the wings! ”
"Yes!"
"Ao Biao, Wang Ling, Liu Xiaoliu! Each rate of the headquarters, as a striker, waiting for the opportunity to attack! Liu Xiaoliu is the striker moderation, and I lead the Chinese army to respond in the rear! The enemy is stationed in me to disturb, the enemy is 'chaotic' and I attack, the enemy is defeated and I am chasing, gentlemen, my Western Route Army has made meritorious contributions, just tonight! I hope you will fight bravely to kill the enemy and strengthen the prestige of our army! ”
"Fight bravely to kill the enemy and strengthen our army!" Everyone shouted together, all of them were surging with pride and blood in their 'chests'!
"Go and prepare, it's the hour of the day, and when it's ugly, the whole army will attack!"
