Chapter 1241: Real Arsenal
Huining.
Su Xuan and Zhu Yu came to the underground factory together.
Looking at the underground factory that had formed a certain scale, Su Xuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
After Mr. Bao came, the progress of the underground factory was indeed much faster.
Compound bows and bed crossbows can already be mass-produced here, and even the production line for firecrackers has been built and production has already begun.
Su Xuan wanted to make a fire gun, not for war.
The production of arquebuses was also fast, and the main firearm of the Wushuang Army was the arquebus.
As for the firecracker, Su Xuan planned to use it for business.
Sell it to Great Xia, sell it to Great Liang, make their money fiercely, and then use the money earned from them to build more advanced firearms.
Su Xuan saw Bao Ben lying on the recliner, carrying a wine jug in his hand, drinking leisurely, so he walked up to say hello.
"Old man, haven't you drunk enough in the past few days?" Su Xuan asked with a smile.
"Wine, it's like water. Take two more sips when you can, and who knows how many years my old bones will live?" Bao Ben laughed.
Su Xuan took Bao Ben and the others to Yanzhou City before, but they only participated in one banquet and returned to Huining City.
"The old man can see it through. With your bones, it is not a problem to live a long life." Su Xuan said with a smile.
"Harm, they're all over eighty, where can they live a long time? Look, how about this underground factory?" Baoben asked.
"Compared to Wudu City, it is even better." Su Xuan said.
"That's it."
Seeing that Bao Ben was about to get up, Su Xuan immediately helped the old man up.
"The underground factories in Wudu City are definitely not as fast as they are producing weapons here. I estimate that the arquebus cannot be mass-produced over there in Wudu City, and it is almost here. At present, there are 2,000 compound bows, 200 bed crossbows, and a number of swordsmen." Bao Ben smirked.
"It's really thanks to you, old man." Su Xuan said.
"The main thing is that you kid has the ability to beat the Beiying Army so badly, it's really powerful." Bao Ben said with a thumbs up.
"The old man has won the award, and these achievements come from the efforts of the brothers in the rear. You are the giants, and we are just standing on the shoulders of the giants." Su Xuan said.
"Haha, that's a good thing to say, it's deep, I love to hear it." Bao Ben laughed.
"Little Star, come here."
Bao Ben called Bao Xiaoxing over.
"Hey, Su Xuan, why are you here? Haven't you just gotten married? Don't you have to accompany the bride?" Bao Xiaoxing asked with a smile.
Now this pack of Xiaoxing looks a little bit of Zhao Ling'er's sense of déjà vu.
It's not that they look alike, but Bao Xiaoxing is covered in oil stains, and he looks like he just crawled out of the garbage heap......
In the past, Bao Xiaoxing only thought about going to the battlefield, but now she is in love with iron.
"I didn't have time to accompany you a few days ago, so I'm coming to see you today." Su Xuan said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, are you cooking tonight?" I ate in Yanzhou that day, and the bullshit chef didn't make half of the food you cooked." Bao Xiaoxing stared at Su Xuan and asked.
"No problem, I'll cook tonight." Su Xuan said.
"Okay, okay, you come with me!"
Bao Xiaoxing didn't care about his oily hands, and pulled Su Xuan and walked forward.
The various sections of the underground factory were divided, and Bao Xiaoxing took Su Xuan to a storage room that was not too large.
Seeing the layout of this storage room, Su Xuan was a little stunned for a while.
There are various metal shelves with various weapons on them, and the main thing is that the setting looks like a very modern setting.
"Look, isn't it amazing?"
Bao Xiaoxing pulled down a piece of canvas, and on the shelf behind the canvas, there were two rows of artillery!
"So many?" Su Xuan was surprised.
"Twenty cannons, with the latest black powder developed by Little Peach Blossom, can have a range of more than that
Two miles! Two miles away, it's enough to blast open a huge two-story wooden plank like the south gate of Huining City!" Bao Xiaoxing said.
"So powerful?" Su Xuan was a little surprised.
Now the two divine cannons in the hands of the Wushuang Army can also blast two miles away.
But after flying that far, the power is greatly reduced. While there is nothing wrong with killing soldiers, it is impossible to destroy the gates.
These twenty cannons are so powerful that they can definitely make the Peerless Army like a tiger!
"That's not the point, the point is that there are still a few batches of artillery in production. Within half a year, the number of our artillery pieces can be increased to fifty. How's that?" Bao Xiaoxing asked proudly.
"Not bad!!"
Su Xuan rubbed his hands excitedly.
He wanted to take these cannons to the battlefield now and test their power.
What Changning Army, what Huazhou Army, under these twenty artillery pieces, they will definitely be wiped out!
I have to say that Bao Xiaoxing is worthy of being the granddaughter of Old Man Bao, and she is indeed talented in the craftsman.
She and Little Peach Blossom, one person builds artillery, and the other studies gunpowder, which is a perfect match.
It's a pity that Zhao Ling'er is missing, if Zhao Ling'er is here, these three little girls together will be equivalent to Su Xuan's arsenal.
Bao Xiaoxing specializes in large-scale weapons, and Zhao Ling'er is ingenious and specializes in small firearms.
Su Xuan thought to himself, sooner or later, he would enter the Martial Capital City, and this day would not be too far away.
"By the way, I have one more thing I want to show you."
Bao Xiaoxing said, covered the canvas, and led Su Xuan to a small workshop.
This is a dedicated workshop for Bao Xiaoxing.
There is everything in it, it is very complete.
On the middle platform is a small cannon with a bracket and a muzzle diagonally upwards.
At first glance, it looks like a mortar.
Su Xuan didn't give the drawings of the mortar, this must have been researched by Bao Xiaoxing himself.
"This is also a cannon, much smaller than the Divine Gun and a little heavier than the Gunner. The advantage is that it is easy to carry and can be used for individual combat.
My idea is that the number of such artillery pieces needs to be very large, and it can be used to open up a battlefield for attack or cover at any time.
Catapult, yes, the artillery version of the catapult! This kind of small artillery has the advantage of numbers, and it only needs to be fired at the sky, and it doesn't matter whether it can hit or not.
As long as the projectile can cover the past, it can attack or retreat with all arms."
Bao Xiaoxing stared at Su Xuan and asked, "Su Xuan Su Xuan, what do you think of me?" Isn't that ingenious?"
"What's more than ingenuity? You're so smart!" Su Xuan's eyes were full of excitement.
Artillery positions, in sufficient quantities, can really carry out effective battlefield cover.
Therefore, the wisdom of the ancients is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"This kind of artillery doesn't use as much material as the Divine Gun cannon, one one
The material of the Divine Gun can be used to create more than a dozen of these small guns. Moreover, this small cannon is also easier to build than the Divine Gun Car. In half a year, I can pull out at least 200 small guns." Bao Xiaoxing said excitedly.
"The naming right of this weapon will be handed over to you, and when you choose a name, we will register it." Su Xuan said.
"Okay! Hehe, that, Su Xuan, I have a small proposal......" Bao Xiaoxing said.
"Just say, you're so smart, I can give you anything." Su Xuan said with a smile.
"That is, the next time you go to the battlefield, can you take me with you? I want to command small artillery on the battlefield." Bao Xiaoxing said.
Originally, Su Xuan thought that Bao Xiaoxing was addicted to iron and had little interest in going to the battlefield.
didn't expect Bao Xiaoxing to work so hard to build weapons, but he still wanted to go to the battlefield.
This original version of the mortar was invented by Bao Xiaoxing, maybe she is using it
There will be very clever ideas.
"Okay, I promise you. On my next expedition, I will definitely take you with me. If you can make meritorious contributions, I will definitely make you a general, and let you command a battalion of soldiers and horses yourself." Su Xuan said with a smile.
"Wow! A word is a certainty, a word is a certainty! Sister Zhuyu! You can hear it, Su Xuan, he promised me, you have to be a witness!" Bao Xiaoxing jumped excitedly.
"Xiaoxing, do you want to go to the battlefield so much?" Zhu Yu asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes, my sister will testify to me." Bao Xiaoxing said.
"No problem, my sister will testify to you. At that time, even if Su Xuan doesn't let you go to the battlefield, sister, I will find you an army and let you go on your own." Zhuyu said with a smile.
"Okay, good, sister, so good! I love my sister so much!"
After Bao Xiaoxing finished speaking, he wanted to come up and kiss Zhuyu.
Then I thought that I was covered in oil, so I still forgot it.
"Also, I've thought of a good way to maintain my artillery, so listen to me slowly......
Next, Bao Xiaoxing took Su Xuan to visit this kind of production line while explaining to Su Xuan.
"By the way, how's the production of the firebolt going? How much stock do you have now?" Su Xuan asked.
"There's about a thousand guns piled up in the warehouse, all freshly made. Oops, the firebolt is so simple. As long as we want, it's not a problem to build 5,000 in half a year." Bao Xiaoxing said.
Su Xuan nodded.
Before, on the battlefield in Jizhou, the firearm was still not enough. But he didn't expect that there were already a thousand firecrackers in the warehouse.
If this batch of weapons had been taken off the assembly line as soon as possible and equipped to the army, the Battle of Jizhou would have been fought more smoothly.
"Produce as much as you can." Su Xuan said.
"There's enough muskets, so let's make arquebuses as much as possible." Bao Xiaoxing said.
"No, no, no, we also need firecrackers, we also have to make money, we can't always count on my father-in-law to give money, right?" Su Xuan said with a smile.
"Guns for money? The musket is so backward, why don't you just make arquebuses and sell them for money?" Bao Xiaoxing asked.
"Why do we want to sell the most advanced weapons to others? Of course, it is to sell backward weapons to others, use the money given by others to build the most advanced weapons, and then fight others." Su Xuan said.
Hearing Su Xuan's words, Bao Xiaoxing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Huh? Smart or you're smart, why didn't I think of it?"
"What is this called cleverness? Normal people can imagine it."
"Okay, okay, let's go, I'll continue to take you forward......
