Stay on another hill.

The point of impact of the shell was found.

Here, it has long been burned black.

What is terrible is that the nearby trees and branches are all crooked.

Although there was no trace of destruction in the trunk of the tree, the steel balls sputtered out of the tree were embedded in it, and there were thousands of holes.

Look at the lethality.

Zhang Mao's mind was a little dazed.

What...... What's going on?

Can this thing still bloom?

During the Hongzhi Dynasty, the flowering bomb did not appear, but in later generations, archaeologists had excavated some flowering bombs in the late Ming Dynasty in Inner Mongolia, which was a small circular hole on the surface of the sphere that protruded from the platform, and then detonated through the small hole with a "medicine twist", which was different from the early flowering bombs in the West.

Fang Jifan's idea is actually this. He'd seen it in a museum, and it was a bit rough. Because it is difficult for black powder to explode the shell, people have come up with a way, that is, to deliberately leave a relatively light and thin place near the powder twist, because the position of the powder twist is the position of the gun, so when the shell is launched, it will not explode immediately, but once the gunpowder in the shell begins to expand, this weak position will be quickly exploded, and the steel balls in it will fly out along this 'embankment' in an instant.

When gunpowder splashes out, because the temperature rises rapidly, it may even erupt a tongue of fire, which is very likely to cause a fire.

Flame plus steel balls, no, the cost of steel balls is higher, in fact, this thing, is iron balls, even a lot of iron beads, or rusty, iron balls, the more rusty the more powerful, once shot out, into the human body, this rusty iron beads will cause the human body 'carbuncle', in this era without treatment of tetanus, get 'carbuncle', basically will die.

What's even darker is that this rusty iron bead shoots into the human body, and it will not die immediately, that is to say, the wounded will continue to consume the enemy's rations, and because the carbuncle gradually begins to attack, it will cause a great burden on the enemy, so many incurable injuries, if you throw them away, it will inevitably be demoralized, everyone has the heart of compassion for the death of the rabbit and the fox, if you don't give up on them, let them consume your food and herbs, and even slow down your march, this ...... It's just a pit.

In addition, the shells were actually made of copper, which was softer than steel, and when fired, it was slightly deformed due to rifling. As a result, the shell cracked slightly, and some copper skin splashed out, and it also shot into the trunk of the tree.

Of course, Zhang Mao couldn't think about it so much, he pulled out an iron bead from the trunk of the tree, looked carefully, and couldn't help but be speechless, the iron pillar went deep into the trunk by half an inch, how powerful this is, and there is almost no grass growing in this vicinity.

High precision, shoot far, and full of power.

Those tiger squat cannons are simply waste.

Zhang Mao remembered the years when he was a baby and was stuffed into the muzzle of the tiger squat cannon by his father, these deeds, because they are too legendary, have always been circulated in the Beijing camp, but all the veterans at the beginning, when talking about the deeds of General Zhang Fu, who has been posthumously named the king of Dingxing County, will always bring this matter out to prove that the king of Dingxing County was alive, how to teach his son well.

This artillery, obviously, the child can't be stuffed, which makes Zhang Mao can't help but sigh, if the artillery is like this in the future, isn't it the lack of traditional military Chinese? The old man still wants to hold his grandson and stuff it into the muzzle of the cannon in the future to educate and educate, this muzzle is a bit small, and it can't be plugged.

It's very distressing, people's hearts are not ancient, and the lack of traditional culture is terrible.

Call......

Zhang Mao's face suddenly turned red, he looked at the prince and Fang Jifan, and stretched out his hand: "Who made it according to the drawings?" ”

Fang Jifan pointed at Zhang Weiyu.

Zhang Mao's eyes lit up, stepped forward, and patted Zhang Weiyu on the shoulder: "Wang Gongchang can't be built by so many people, so you have built it, this is not only the credit of the successor, but you are also ...... It's a great job, old man...... The old man will go back to tell you, and you will go back to tell you......"

Zhang Mao danced excitedly: "Wait, Your Majesty will be very happy when you see this thing, and you will be very happy, and when the time comes, you will be rewarded heavily." ”

Rewards.

Zhang Weiyu was busy scratching his head, as the most handsome person in the Zhang family, he showed a modest smile: "I should serve...... It's a matter of course......"

Zhang Heling's eyes were a little straight, and then his eyes began to roll. He was happy and laughed: "Good nephew, uncle is really happy for you." ”

Without waiting for Zhang Weiyu to react, Zhang Heling had already rushed forward and hugged Zhang Weiyu: "Nephew, uncle has been going to sea for so many years, and he has been thinking about you every day, how is it, is your mother okay?" ”

That Zhang Mao, but he couldn't care about this anymore, it was a little dark, he had to hurry back to his life, took a few iron beads, and hurried away.

"Oh no, no." Someone shouted: "There was a cow grazing here, who would have expected that it was unfortunately blown up by mistake, it limped, and ran for three miles in blood, before it was exhausted and fell to the ground." ”

Zhu Houzhao shouted: "It's so pitiful, why don't you hurry up and drag the cow back, can you bear to let this cow corpse be in the wilderness?" The things raised by the bitch, Liu Companion ......"

Zhang Yong was on the side, smiling, and when he heard that His Royal Highness was called Liu Companion again, his heart was a little cold, and he looked like he was in pain, and he covered his heart: "Your Highness......"

Zhu Houzhao saw that it was Zhang Yong again, and suddenly remembered that Liu Jin was really dead.

Obviously, when I was in Nanchang, I didn't feel anything, but now, my heart is a little empty.

He kicked Zhang Yong fiercely: "Dog, go back and inform Mr. Wen and ask him to help deal with this dead cow." Whoever sets this cannon will pay for his life, and he will lose money for killing cattle! ”

Everyone looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao touched his nose: "Bengong actually remembered, this time, it was Bengong, and I went back." ”

………………

Zhang Mao rushed back to Beijing, but it was already dark, the Forbidden City had been banned, Zhang Mao was very excited, all he was thinking about was the cannon, with that cannon is terrible, the old man will lead the troops in the future, sweep the desert, and use this artillery to hit his mother's Tatars. ”

Xiao Fang, there is still a lot of way, in addition to not being able to sacrifice, he is really much stronger than Lao Tzu.

It's a pity that I won't be able to see Your Majesty tonight, so I have to be patient and wait until tomorrow morning to enter the palace.

………………

Chen Ergou also followed a group of comrades, from Xishan to Beijing, they planned to live in Beijing for a few days, talk about brotherhood, and then, go home again, and then, I am afraid that they will prepare to go to Tianjin Wei to gather, ready to go to sea at any time.

Since they have decided to go to sea, they naturally cherish their time on land.

A group of people who have money are naturally the best inns to stay in, and are ready to go to drink, and naturally there are inevitably suggestions to do something indescribable.

Sailors and sailors are the most undisciplined, which is completely different from Fang Jifan, who is clean and self-conscious, after all, not everyone can get rid of low-level interests.

But after a temporary break in the inn, a group of people were still carrying cans in their hands, and suddenly someone felt a little hungry and couldn't help but take out the cans: "This thing, why don't you taste it?" ”

Yes, these things will be taken to sea in the future, and they will be the rations of the future sailors.

Then try it.

Chen Ergou didn't say a word, took out a can, this glass jar, contained Sydney, the skin of Sydney, the skin of Sydney, has already been peeled clean, it looks very good, he worked hard to uncover the sealed wooden stopper, and suddenly, a pear fragrance wafted out.

Everyone leaned their heads and looked at the pear soaked in sugar water,

"Come on, brothers, take chopsticks, let's taste them together."

I ate a lot of beef at noon, and my stomach was a little greasy, Chen Ergou gave an order, and everyone was not polite, and ordered someone to go to the guy, took a few pairs of chopsticks, and took a few bowls, and each person shared a piece of Sydney, and poured some soup in the bowl.

Chen Ergou took the pear, took a bite of it, and immediately ...... A taste of relish filled his taste buds.

This...... The pears in the canned food are much sweeter than the ones I usually eat.

Chen Ergou has never eaten anything good, and in this life, he feels that the beef at noon is a pleasure, but now, he ...... After eating this pear, I felt comfortable all over: "It's so sweet." ”

"This soup is also sweet and delicious."

Someone drank the soup.

Chen Ergou hurriedly picked up the bowl and drank the soup in one gulp.

In a moment, a jar of canned Sydney pears was eaten by everyone.

"This thing, even if you don't go to sea, you can't eat it at ordinary times." Chen Ergou sighed with emotion: "It's okay now, let's go to sea with this in the future, we really don't have to worry about eating and drinking." ”

"Would you like to try that canned beef?" Someone said cautiously.

"Don't try it......" Chen Ergou stuffed the canned food back like a baby, this thing, take it back to the children to eat, so that they can see the world.

At this point, everyone burst into laughter.

The heart was very comfortable, and someone quipped: "Even if it's for this can, let's go to sea, it's okay." ”

Chen Ergou was happy, this is really a good day, as long as there is enough food, drink and provisions, he even feels that going to sea is no longer a matter of suffering, in this world, where else can I find such a good thing that can not only make a fortune, but also eat canned food.

It was getting dark, and in early spring, the lights of thousands of homes were lit one after another.

In this still cold Jingshi, Chen Ergou and others, the life at night has just begun, followed by laughter and the blowing and singing with a sweet voice, from time to time, there is a sound of laughter.

But at this time, Zhang Mao didn't sleep all night, he paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.

"Master, I'm going to the ancestral tomb tomorrow, and the master still hasn't slept? Don't delay your efforts. ”

"I'm not going." Zhang Mao shook his head and replied categorically.
