"Brother, the ammunition is loaded!"

Ling Zhen finished everything and said to Sun Lei. Pro-Shell Pavilion

"See that dead tree on the shore? Beat it up. ”

Sun Lei pointed to a big dead tree on the opposite bank and said, the tree stood alone on the shore, which was very easy to recognize.

"Yes!"

Ling Zhen stood up straight and replied, and then began to adjust the angle of the cannon.

"Brother, get ready!"

Ling Zhen confirmed it several times, and finally got up and hugged Sun Lei with his fist, this was the first shot he fired after going to Liangshan, and he had to fight beautifully, at this moment, Ling Zhen had the feeling of excitement when he first came into contact with firearms when he was a teenager.

"Can you hit it from such a distance?"

Pang Wanchun looked at the dead tree on the other side and doubted for a while, he was a master of arrows, the strongest bow and crossbow in the world was the three-bow bed crossbow (also known as the eight-bull crossbow) in the army, it was a sharp weapon in the army, there was an order in the army, and it could not be configured if it was not elite, even if it was defeated, it was necessary to destroy the three-bow bed crossbow before it could escape, otherwise it would be punished with death. The reason is that the three-bow bed crossbow is made by concentrating the essence of the original millennium technology, and the range can reach up to 1,000 steps (1,500 meters), and it must not fall into the hands of the enemy.

"I don't think I can hit either, it's too far!"

Yang Zhi is also a little bit of a way, he has a wider range of knowledge, he has seen all kinds of ordnance and sharp weapons, and artillery is no stranger, how can he fight so far?

"Two elder brothers, I'm afraid you're going to lose your eyes, but Brother Sun Lei is full of confidence in Brother Ling Zhen!"

Ou Peng said with a smile, what Sun Lei is sure of must be holding the handle.

"If this can be hit, wouldn't our Liangshanbo barrier be an ornament."

Fei Bao looked at the wide water surface and said, Liangshan's biggest geographical advantage is this Shuibo natural danger, even if the 100,000 army does not want to get close to Liangshan, but if something can pass through Shuibo to attack Liangshan, then Liangshan is no longer impregnable.

"Let's even row a boat, and we need a stick of incense, right?"

Ruan Xiaoqi also didn't believe it.

"Brother Lin Chong, is this artillery so powerful?"

Ruan Xiaoer looked at Lin Chong and asked, Lin Chong is the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, and he must be familiar with the equipment in the army.

"I can fight for two or three miles."

Lin Chong shook his head with a wry smile and said, the only thing he has ever seen is the kind of small cannon that hits two or three miles, he can't think of it for more than ten miles, and he has never heard of it, but this is normal, firearms have always been a secret in the army, and he can't touch too much with a stick leader.

Everyone whispered earnestly, all skeptical about the range of the artillery.

"Open fire."

Sun Lei looked at Ling Zhen and nodded.

Ling Zhen took the order and lit the fuse, and as the fuse burned, there was a loud "boom", and the violent recoil of the cannon barrel hit the ground and sank, and a burst of black smoke slowly drifted out of the cannon barrel.

"Hit!"

Everyone didn't see the shell clearly, but the dead tree on the opposite bank was hit, and the projectile directly smashed the dead tree at the waist.

"My goodness!"

Li Kui grew his mouth in surprise, thinking that when he was in Tokyo, he also said that Ling Zhen would carry the cannon and try it, if he was hit by a cannon, he was afraid that he would not be wiped out directly.

"Good! It's a thunderstorm! ”

Sun Lei laughed and clapped his hands, Ling Zhen is good at making artillery, can fight fourteen or fifteen miles away, and is known as "the first gunner in the world in the Song Dynasty", now it seems that it is not in vain.

"It's thanks to my brother's gunpowder secret recipe, otherwise my younger brother would still be like a frog at the bottom of a well, living in the lake!"

Ling Zhen hugged his fist at Sun Lei, if it wasn't for the best formula of gunpowder given to him by Sun Lei, the power of firearms would not be so great at all, if you want to fight for more than ten miles, you must use a giant cannon, the process is too complicated, even a group of skilled craftsmen may not be able to build one in a month.

"Don't talk about these, they're all brothers!"

Sun Lei waved his hand and said with a smile, now that Ling Zhen has gone to Liangshan, it is nothing to give a formula.

"By the way, you're hitting a solid projectile, can you hit a flowering projectile?"

Sun Lei looked at Ling Zhen and asked, the artillery in front of him is still very backward, relying on gunpowder to detonate and launch the projectile, a solid projectile can only rely on the impact force to injure the enemy, the lethality is too small, this is completely different from the Italian cannon that Sun Lei wants, what Sun Lei wants is the kind of grenade that can't explode.

"Brother, do you want to use a thunderbolt?"

Ling Zhen pointed to the thunderbolt cannon (small trebuchet) next to him and said to Sun Lei.

"This thing can't hit far, what I want is to hit that earth-shattering thunder with this Tiger Venerable cannon to the other side."

Sun Lei shook his head and said.

"Brother, if this earth-shattering thunder is placed in the barrel of the cannon, won't it be directly exploded?"

Ling Zhen waved his hand again and again, shaking his head, indicating that it was impossible.

"Brother, this artillery is not so hit, firearms can be roughly divided into two types, most of the ones that can explode are thrown out, or tied to crossbow arrows and shot, or even tied to kites. And artillery, which is fired by explosion, can only be a solid iron pellet or some iron thistles and small steel balls can be launched. Don't dare to directly release the earth-shattering thunder! ”

Ling Zhen explained to Sun Lei that if he put the earth-shaking thunder in the barrel, it would not be tantamount to suicide.

"Can't you do it?"

Sun Lei felt a little sorry, if he could only shoot solid projectiles, the lethality would be greatly reduced, and he could only be used to defend and siege the city, and it was not applicable to other occasions.

"You slowly study, how to make this earth-shattering thunder not explode in the barrel, fly out and land before exploding, think about it, this is much more powerful, the enemy is thousands of troops and horses, still ten miles away, I have a row of cannons over, they instantly turned into ashes, how cool is this!"

Sun Lei looked at Ling Zhen and said.

"Brother, this ...... Is this really possible? Can a hollow bomb withstand the explosion of gunpowder in the barrel? ”

Ling Zhen was embarrassed, Sun Lei didn't dare to think about this request, gunpowder was already flammable and explosive, how could it be fired in the barrel?

"How do you know if you don't try? If you study gunpowder, you should know that all possibilities start with impossibility, such as artillery, everyone thinks it is bulky, sluggish, and powerful, but you can fight fourteen or fifteen miles away, isn't it also impossible? ”

Sun Lei said with a smile.

"Brother, little brother must work hard!"

Ling Zhen's eyes lit up, didn't everything he did start with the impossible?

"A few military divisions, how is this artillery!"

Sun Lei looked at the four military advisors around him with a smile and asked, this is one of the confidence of the future Liangshan campaign.

"It's really extraordinary, this artillery is so powerful, he will become a sharp weapon on the battlefield one day, and it is not a problem to win or lose."

Xiao Jiasui sighed, today is just a sky-shattering thunder, a cannon, it has such power, if there are many of them, it is really unimaginable.

"With this help, big things can be done!"

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile, originally he thought that Liangshan would take a long time to develop, but now it seems that Sun Lei's preparation is far beyond his thoughts, Liangshan not only has many generals, occupies geography, and has the hearts of the people, but now it has a big killer weapon - artillery, which can be said to be just waiting for the time.

"Haha, everything is dead, and we Liangshan still rely on brothers."

Sun Lei looked at everyone and said with a smile, weapons are only secondary, and it is still people who are determined to fight.
