Chapter 5 Making Guns and Making Cannons

It took half a day for everyone to arrive at Baishan safely.

Old man Yang saw the towering and smoking steel-making furnace outside Baishan City under the slanting sun, and the houses around the steel-making furnace, and listened to the tinkling sound from afar, and couldn't help but be a little intoxicated. What kind of dream does it take to see something like this?

Lei Ming smiled and introduced: "The tall and thick chimney you see is a steelmaking furnace. After a break, I will take a closer look inside tomorrow, there are a lot of fully functional equipment in it, and there is no need to rely on manual beating as before, and the production of devices is much faster. ”

Yang Erwu is young and anxious, how can he wait for tomorrow, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Shi, if you are busy, you can go by yourself." Just send someone to take us on a walk. ”

Lei Ming was speechless, he was too busy to go away, and he was worried that Old Man Yang's body would not be able to stand the rush, so he proposed to see it again tomorrow, but after seeing the old man Yang who was in high spirits, he was discouraged, so as not to sweep away Old Man Yang's interest.

So, Lei Ming's eyes rolled twice, and then he decided to come down, and said, "Okay, I'll call someone named Lin Chong, who is your junior brother, to take you around." But there are a lot of important points, he can't understand. How?"

After speaking, Lei Ming glanced back and forth at Old Man Yang and Yang Erwu, and saw that both of them nodded happily, and the matter was settled.

After arriving at the city lord's mansion in Baicheng and arranging everyone's food and lodging, Lei Ming sent someone to summon Lin Chong. When he finished introducing Old Man Yang, Lin Chong knelt down very decisively and shouted: "Good teacher!"

The old man Yang couldn't stop laughing, and said: "No courtesy, no courtesy!" When introducing Yang Erwu. Lin Chong was about to call him senior brother, but was stopped by thunder and said, "Let's call him junior brother." Not more than a few days before you started, and he's young. Yang Erwu, who was secretly happy that someone called him senior brother, was full of depression.

The meeting ended in a lively and peaceful atmosphere. Lin Chong took the happy Old Man Yang and Yang Erwu to visit the steelmaking furnace, leaving Lei Ming and Yang Tian still planning in the hall.

In fact, there is nothing to plan, just a little place, deploy troops and prevent thieves from sneaking attacks. However, after the last time the thunder inadvertently injured the enemy, the other party seemed to have some taboos, perhaps because he was afraid of encountering the thunder again, or maybe he knew that the thunder was not good, and he didn't want to do useless work anymore. All in all did not come back.

Lei Ming only had a comprehension of the sonic wave skill last time, and occasionally he happened to be able to use it, but he couldn't form a common move against the enemy, so Yang Tianlian, who knew about it, said that it was a pity: With such a powerful kung fu, wouldn't it be a pity to run to the enemy and roar a few times, wouldn't it be countless casualties?

Hearing Yang Tian's complaining thunder, he glanced at Yang Tian blankly: "Naive!" After that, he stopped paying attention to miscellaneous matters and concentrated on developing his special steel and sight matters; It was also engaged in experiments in the development of ammunition.

Time passed quickly, three months passed in the blink of an eye, and the enemy did not come to make trouble, I don't know if it was the effect of martial law. The people began to panic a little, and the atmosphere began to become solemn. In particular, there was an unknown sound of a roar on Baishan every few days, which made the people of Baishan City panic. But there was no better place to live, and there was no obvious harm coming out. So he stayed at home every day and took care of the housework.

The sound of "呯~" echoed everywhere on the white mountain. So that everyone who heard it from near and far stopped and looked around, this time the sound was different, what was going on?

"Ha Lu Ha~, it's finally successful!" A ragged, disheveled, and gray-faced strange man flew down from the white mountain.

The voice was made by the strange man, and everyone who saw this scene made a conclusion in their minds.

The strange man's body shook, making a lot of afterimages, and then he disappeared into Baishan City. The guards in the city were very nervous, worried about whether there would be any mess, and when they were about to chase away, a thunderous shout came from the city: "Don't worry, it's General Yang Tian!"

Yang Tian came to Lei Ming, who was sitting in the hall, like a gust of wind, and said with a grin: "It's finally out! It can be mass-produced!"

"Okay, I don't have to do it myself. There is progress!" Looking at the beggar who pulled down his face, Lei Ming continued, "You better hurry up and freshen up." Come back and talk about it in more detail. ”

Not long after, Yang Tian, who was fresh and handsome, walked into the hall with a muttering mouth: "You just made so many guns and a few cannons, and you want my ammunition to be mass-produced, it's really too much." ”

Lei Ming sat there, plucked out his ears, and said, "Recently, there have been a lot of earwax, I can't hear what you just said, can you tell me more?"

Yang Tian sat heavily on the chair, leaned over and said, "It's nothing, I'm glad that my experimental ability is stronger." ”

"Oh, that's a good thing. Lei Ming nodded and smiled, "It's not easy for you to know it. Send the Buddha to the west, I will melt the old bronze sword and make it into a bullet case, and you will bring ten more reliable people to work in the afternoon. My scope is pretty much there. ”

Yang Tian's face was full of reluctance, and he asked, "How many cannons have you made, how many guns?"

"There are not enough materials, so I made ten steel cannons and ten sniper rifles!" Lei Ming was very proud, it was not easy to make these in a place where such materials were scarce.

"Oh!" Yang Tian patted his head, "What's the use of that little thing you made!"

"Enough, a single blast of those weapons can scare them away. Lei Ming touched his chin and said, "After all, we haven't stayed here too long, and we've done too much, but I'm afraid that we will lose ......."

"You mean there are ghosts in the city?" Yang Tian frowned and asked, although he knew that there were uneasy elements in the city, he didn't expect that after more than two years, there would be hidden dangers.

"Well, I've analyzed it, and the time in Hexi City was an internal response. Lei Ming was a little more relaxed, "So just make it less and scare them into not daring to move." ”

Yang Tian nodded, and disappeared into the hall in a flash, he was about to rush to make ammunition, he believed that although there were few weapons in Thundering, they should be able to play a huge role, after all, his ammunition was not small.

Three days later, the sun was shining, and Lei Ming, Yang Tian, Lin Chong and others came to the halfway point of Baishan, pulling a steel cannon and a sniper rifle for testing.

Thundering, he pointed the muzzle of the gun at the hillside thousands of kilometers away, adjusted the angle, and put in the round ammunition. Pull the board machine, "呯~" a loud sound. Then a hundred meters in front of the hillside in the distance "boomed" and was blown out of a large crater.

"Bang Bang" The crowd applauded for this tremendous power. Yang Tian added: "It's just a lot off." ”

Old man Yang smiled and said, "That's not much." Hit a little higher and you'll be hit. "I didn't expect that layman to be able to say professional words.

The thunder was silent, and it was slightly raised by one degree, and when the ammunition was put in to bombard again, it could hit the top of the slope.

"Whew!" Lei Ming shouted excitedly, but he didn't expect it to succeed. The crowd applauded.

"Hehe~ Not bad, I hit it the second time. Yang Tian clasped his hands to his chest, paced forward to see the smoking muzzle, it was still intact, "How about trying a sniper rifle?" I am becoming more and more confident in you. ”

"Hey, hey~. You don't believe me, do you believe Brother Chun?" Lei Ming smiled smugly.

"Try your gun, proud!" Yang Tian glanced at Lei Ming and stepped out of the way.

Lei Ming glanced at a big tree thousands of miles away, only a small point, behind the scope of the sniper rifle, but saw that the scenery in the distance suddenly became larger and shook in front of the mirror.

The hand is unsteady and not aligned, a little off-track. Lei Ming thought for a moment, and then took another deep breath. Still, he moved the barrel of his gun slightly, and finally saw a white cross drawn on the trunk of the tree. There was a soft "poof", and the thunder pulled the trigger. The silenced sniper rifle that passed through the muffler shot a little spark and hit the tree in the distance.

Thunder saw through the scope that the bullet had hit a little below the intersection.

"Hit it accurately!" thundered to himself, and then handed the gun to Yang Tian. Yang Tianduan's gun shook back and forth several times. He also saw the situation on the target, and his face showed joy. Said: "Well, it's quite accurate!

"Then immediately send forty reliable and capable people to train here!" Lei Ming ordered with a wave of his hand.

Soon. Another month passed. Yang Tian had already found forty reliable special combat personnel to train on the White Mountain, and the hits were not bad, so he could go to the battlefield.

One day, the spies came to report that Jin Yuan had a large army moving in the direction of the black chicken. The road between the three cities has been repaired, and the travel is much faster, and under the premise of fewer people, it is undoubtedly unwise to defend the black chicken. So, Lei Ming decisively ordered: give up the black chicken and return to defend the White River!

A large number of stainless steel Tang knives were made, and the heads of the spears were replaced with stainless steel heads, no longer candle heads. There are a lot of weapons, but there are few soldiers, and they cannot face the enemy at will on the battlefield, and a charge of more than 100,000 troops can crush 20,000 people. Therefore, Lei Ming's order was unanimously approved by the generals.

The direction of Haoyue City did not find out that there was a movement of the army, so Lei Ming only sent a thousand soldiers to guard Hexi, a thousand soldiers to guard Baishan, and the rest of the soldiers were stationed in Baihe;

The Jin Yuan army entered the black chicken without obstacles, which made the Jin Yuan army have a great confidence in destroying the three cities of Thunder, so they just waited for the order from above to attack. The battle clouds of White River City shrouded ......

In a small dimly lit room, Emperor Jin Yuan sat cross-legged behind his desk, smiling at Wei Ming, who was frowning.

"Is he really going to fight Baihe? won't he want some civilians from you, as for it?" Wei Ming asked Wang Ding in a deep voice, he thought that Lei Ming was just asking Jin Yuan for some military families, and it had no impact on the future development, so he didn't agree with the attack on Lei Ming's army, "Don't you think Chu Wei is very unreliable for you to accept Baihe?"

"You don't understand. Wang Ding smiled disdainfully, "No matter what Lei Ming and they say, they can be regarded as voting for Haotian, he can't send troops to destroy them for no reason, that will turn people's hearts back." ”

After a pause, he put his feet on the desk and said, "And they really betrayed Jin Yuan, I haven't said anything about it, it will make the two countries laugh!"

"Hmph, don't you just see that the swords made by Lei Ming are excellent, and you want to take down those good craftsmen and use them for yourself!" Wei Ming snorted, he was very dissatisfied with Wang Ding and the others, "They are all faithless and unrighteous people!

"Hehe, a piece of fat, who doesn't want to swallow it in their mouth? Haotian just doesn't want to increase troops to Baihe to do unnecessary damage. Wang Ding chuckled and said to himself, "It's not profitable, who would be so proactive?" (to be continued......)
