Just when the people on and off the stage stared at each other, the sound of an explosion suddenly sounded in the new green woods in the distance, and then it was out of control, the crackling sound of ping-pong was endless, and the branches could be broken in the smoke rising, the trunk of the tree was bursting, and the scattered dead branches and fallen leaves fluttered like a goddess scattering flowers.

Everyone was frightened, and when the sound of the explosion stopped, they saw that the trees were already falling sideways, and there was still fire rising in the curling green smoke, and the sound of beeping and burning could be heard in the distance.

Xiao Temo's mouth was half open, and he didn't understand what was going on for a long time, how powerful this inconspicuous firearm was when it was shot out? If this hits the crowd in the middle of the crowd, won't the skin and flesh bloom and the dead and wounded all over the ground?

Su Jin sighed secretly, and said in his heart: Ma Jun's gang of miscellaneous people are ineffective, and the explosion is delayed by a few seconds, should you be the network of the Celestial Empire in the future? But it finally exploded, and I hope no one will see the flaw.

The second monk Xiao Temo was confused, but Liu Liufu was shrewd, and said to himself: "How can this firearm wait for a while before it can exert its power?" It's weird. ”

Su Jin glanced at him and said, "As soon as I saw Deputy Envoy Liu, he had never fought, so how could any weapon that was far away be hit immediately?" Even the strongest arrow, don't you have to fly in the air for a few breaths? In addition, this forest is far away from a hundred paces, and the projectile fired by the firearm is called a bullet, and the flight time before the bullet reaches the target is called 'bullet time', and there is also a common name called 'let the bullet fly', which also has some meaning of warning everyone not to be restless and wait quietly. ”

Liu Liufu is indeed not a military general, what can he understand as a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy? Su Jin frightened him in three sentences, although Xiao Temo felt that this explanation was a little far-fetched, but the power of people's firearms was real, even if they flew slower, they could not hide their flaws; He looked depressed and a dark cloud hung over his head.

"Master Xiao, how powerful is this firearm?" Su Jin asked triumphantly.

Xiao Temo calmed down and thought for a while: "The power is indeed amazing, but the shortcomings are obvious, and there is probably no room for play on the battlefield." ”

Su Jin sighed and said, "I want to hear about it." ”

Xiao Temo said: "This kind of firearm is naturally very powerful against the infantry, but in the face of my Daliao Iron Cavalry, it will definitely not be beneficial; This kind of firearm cannot be fired in the run, can only stand in place, against my Da Liao Iron Cavalry, the first round may be killed and injured a lot, but once the bullet is issued, you have to fill the fire again, just this short time, my Iron Cavalry will rush through a hundred paces distance; You don't even have a spear, how can you deal with the battle? Isn't it a complete defeat for others to slaughter? ”

Everyone nodded their heads, and they all felt that what Xiao Temo said was very reasonable, such firearms were cumbersome to load, and they had to be ignited, so they could only stand there and operate, and they could not run and shoot like cavalry, shoot from a distance and cut at close range; Standing there like a stake, isn't it just a round of shooting, and then the rhythm of waiting for death?

Su Jin smiled slightly, raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems to make sense, but with such a simple truth, do you think my Great Song soldiers don't understand?" Look down. ”

Su Jin pointed to the audience, and everyone followed his fingers to look, only to see that the more than 40 horsemen who had completed the launch had galloped back to the back of the queue, and began to charge and reload with quick movements; The cavalrymen who had been in the second row had already ridden forward ten paces, and the ignition began to fire.

After that, the third row replaces the second row, the fourth row replaces the third row, and so on, and the sound of firing is incessant, without pause, as if it were firing in bursts.

And the grove a hundred steps away has also been shrouded in black smoke and firelight, from time to time there are explosions coming out, after seven or eight rounds, Zhao Dehai signaled to stop the launch, the breeze passed by, blowing away the smoke shrouded in the woods, the original grove no longer exists, all of them are falling and burning trees, almost razed to the ground.

"How? Master Xiao? It only takes 5,000 soldiers armed with sharpshooters to withstand tens of thousands of cavalry, and I'm not exaggerating. ”

Xiao Te's forehead was sweating, Su Jin was indeed not exaggerating, such power, with a perfect non-stop attack, the cavalry's charge could only fall like leeks and stubble, no matter how many troops were to no avail; The only way to crack it is to send cavalry to attack it in a detour flank, but if the opponent is defending the city or defending the danger, then there is no way.

"It's good, but it's still flawed. This firearm seems to be suitable only for defense, and is of little use for attacking fortifications. ”

Su Jin pointed tall and said: "It is worthy of being the master of Xiao, he is an expert at a glance, and he must be a summary of his experience in a hundred battles and defeats." ”

"Deputy Envoy Su laughed, the envoy was defeated, but it can't be said that he was defeated, are you praising the envoy or humiliating the envoy?"

Su Jin confessed: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake, Lord Xiao should be General Yum." ”

"Yum doesn't dare to be, but he has won many battles big and small, so the problem with this firearm is always known, and this kind of power still can't deal with high walls."

Su Jin smiled: "Siege city? I don't need this thing, there is still a treasure in the Sharpshooter Battalion, why don't we see it together? ”

Xiao Temo stroked his palm and said: "That relationship is good, it's really eye-opening to follow the two adults today." "Xindao: This deputy envoy Su can be stupid, the more you show me, the more we can restrain these weapons of yours in the future, you can't blame me, you took the initiative yourself.

Su Jin waved his hand and shouted to the audience: "Commander Zhao, can our Divine Dragon Cannon be here?" Why don't you shoot them together and see how powerful they are? ”

Zhao Dehai hesitated slightly: "Lord Su, I have to remind you that the 'Divine Dragon Cannon' is a confidential firearm, and it is easy not to show it, not to mention that there are outsiders present?"

Su Jin said: "The two envoys of Liao are not outsiders, Song and Liao are fraternal allies, and I and Chief Envoy Zhao are naturally brothers. ”

The more sincere Su Jin's affection is, the more chills the people on and off the stage will be, just now he forced people to go crazy with debts, but in a blink of an eye, he said that he was a brother, and his face was not red, which was really shameless.

Zhao Dehai was already making a show, and when he heard what Su Jin said, he hurriedly agreed and left, and after a while, two tall horses pulled a huge object slowly from the west barracks; When everyone looked closely, it turned out to be an earthen cannon placed on a shelf; The barrel of the cannon is the size of a basin, and it is completely black, and there is no material to be seen.

The 'Shenlong Cannon' was pulled down and stopped a few dozen steps away from the earthen platform, more than a dozen Ma soldiers lifted the cannon off the flatbed and placed it on the flat ground, several soldiers poured a large amount of gunpowder into the muzzle, and at the same time stuffed more than a dozen black balls into the barrel; after everything was ready, Zhao Dehai rode his horse and said: "Please instruct Master Su where the Shenlong Cannon will strike." ”

Su Jin pointed to an abrupt mound not far away and said, "You don't have to go too far, it's too far to see it, just bombard that mound." ”

Zhao Dehai took the order and left, ordered people to turn the muzzle of the cannon and aim at the big mound not far away, with an order, the gunner lit the fuse, only to hear an earth-shattering bang, the dragon cannon was successfully launched, and more than a dozen black balls rushed out of the cannon chamber and fell directly on the big mound, without exception After a few breaths of delay, the entire large mound seemed to be overturned by the gods from the bottom, and instantly turned into powder.

Smoke and dust, falling soil, more than ten zhang away, soil and stones fell from the air like raindrops, a mushroom cloud rolling up straight to the top of the sky, air waves hit, scraping the clothes of the people on the high platform hunting and moving.

All the people were speechless, this scene was too shocking, this small cannonball can have such a great power, it is really incredible.

Su Jin spat out the dust in his mouth, and scolded in his heart: These turtle grandsons don't know how to save at all, how much gunpowder should be buried under the mound at this time, at least hundreds of catties, these losers, this money is paid by themselves, and I don't know if the emperor will reimburse him.

"Chief Envoy Xiao, is this divine dragon cannon still useful for attacking fortifications?" Su Jin smiled and asked Xiao Temo, whose face was like earth.

Xiao Temo didn't care about Su Jin's triumphant tone, he was shocked and was actually thinking, what did the Song people secretly make so many powerful firearms?

Today I have witnessed their power with my own eyes, if such firearms are on the battlefield, how many soldiers and horses in Daliao can withstand the shooting of the spear, and how many cities can withstand the bombardment of this dragon cannon?

Xiao Temo was frightened, not only did he have new questions, since the Song people had such a powerful firearm, why didn't they use it on the battlefield, but they were beaten by the Western Xia and lost several battles in a row? It's a puzzling thing.
