Section 818 Explosives and guns
After the arrival of the Great Chief of the Tang Dynasty, the city of Abadan fully felt the pressure!
The migrant workers went out in a big way, and built many sections of parapet walls in front of the long fence, and sent people to garrison them, and at night, fires were lit everywhere to drive away the darkness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
……
There was an uproar in front of the camp, and the bombardier on the heavy trebuchet struck the machine hard, and the heavy hammer fell suddenly, bringing up a long pole with a thickness of 15 meters, and the long rope connected to it threw out the stone bullets and fire bombs with great force!
Stone bullets fell on the city walls with a bang, and everyone in the city felt it.
Ten and a hundred fireballs, like the fall of stars in the sky, pierced the night sky and smashed heavily on all parts of the city, and the fire was blazing.
The people in the city were awakened, and the soldiers and civilians near the edge of the city stood against the wall to avoid danger.
They were right, and soon, the Tang army's stone-throwing extended fire, stone bullets, fire bombs, and chemical bombs fell into the city.
There was a thumping sound everywhere, and stone bullets smashed everywhere in the city, and stone chips hit people with broken heads and blood, and heavy lives were lost.
The fire in the city kept burning, and the defenders of the city had to keep carrying water and sand to extinguish the fire so that it would not increase.
Then there is a stench, smelly and strong irritating smell, accidentally inhaling such a poisonous gas, people do not die and lose half of their lives!
When the stink bomb bursts, hold your breath and run as fast as you can, otherwise a tragedy will happen!
The Tang army made extensive use of mobile catapults and heavy equipment, which was enough to throw the hundred-pound Jolin Tsai four hundred meters away!
They fired at close range, less than 50 meters away from the city, so that the city within more than 300 meters was included in the attack range, so that the soldiers and civilians there could not sleep at night.
And the poisonous gas will spread, blocked by the city wall, and only spread within the city, because there are too many of them, and the whole city will stink!
……
The initiative is mine!
Therefore, Tang cavalry ran in the middle of the night to cast rockets, release dark arrows, and even infantry dispatched, making an attack, causing chaos in the Great Food Army, and hurriedly went to the city to defend.
The staff officers of the Tang Army, who were in high places, immediately commanded the trebuchet cluster to fire and fire in succession, killing and wounding the enemy.
And outside the tent of the large camp in the distance, from time to time there were flashes of firebombs, and the army was asleep, preparing to storm the city tomorrow.
……
Wei Xi, Fan Wuxian and Jiang Shi didn't sleep, the three of them sat together and drank night tea and watched the fire from the other city.
We have a pretty good relationship, and we are usually very busy, and it's rare to be together, but now, let's talk together.
The tea is West Lake Longjing, a small pot of tea, made by a master, and the tea is top!
The water used to make tea is snow water from snowy mountains, and the taste of tea is not to be said!
Transported by train, Wei Xi's life is luxurious enough.
But he always insisted on one thing, fair exchange, and pay for work.
If it is the work of the Tang people, they will be paid enough wages, and if it is a slave, they will record their performance and give rewards.
The other magnates of the Western Army were admonished by him, so the social contradictions did not intensify.
Carefully concocted small cakes, preserves, dried fruits, and fruits serve as snacks to deliver tea, and eat comfortably.
Seeing that the city in the distance was in dire straits, the faces of the three senior officers showed satisfied smiles.
Fan Wuxian sneered: "We them during the day and at night, day and night, see what happens to them!" ”
Jiang Zhi said with confidence: "In less than a month, this city will fall!" ”
Under the intensity of such an attack, the big cannibals are difficult to resist.
So they didn't take the city of Abadan seriously, and everyone started blowing nonsense.
They are now all high-ranking officials, and their families are extremely wealthy, and they gradually talked about the way out for the children in the family.
Fan Wuxian had a deep doubt, and couldn't help but ask: "Lord Wang, it seems that you don't care much about the children's riding and shooting at home, and you don't care about it?" ”
He had also heard that the invention of gunpowder would change the way of warfare, but he did not know what to say, if it was officially confirmed by Wei Xi, then he could clear his doubts and decide the actions of his children.
Wei Xi and Jiang Shi smiled mysteriously!
Fan Wuxian knew that Jiang Shi was an insider, and he thought that this guy's tone was dense enough.
Wei Xi pointed at Jiang Shi and said: "Lao Fan is not an outsider, tell him about it!" ”
"We're experimenting with powerful explosives that can blow up a section of the wall!" Jiang Zhi revealed.
"Dynamite? Blow up this section of the wall! "Fan Wuxian was shocked!
"Yes!" Jiang Zhi smiled, and when he talked about explosives, his eyebrows flew and danced!
Of course, he was happy, on the way to the west, what if he encountered Jiancheng, he used explosives to blow them up into the sky.
What's more, even if it is an explosive made of black powder, it becomes the "conscienceless cannon" taught by Wei Xi! As soon as this cannon comes out, the world is invincible!
The top is bombed with unconscionable artillery, and there is a lot of gunpowder underneath, hehe.
Therefore, as long as the westward expedition continues, there will be no problem.
The black powder explosives were taught by Wei Xi, and the main test base was located in Korla, and the test was progressing very smoothly.
"If we have this city-breaking weapon, why don't we use it?" Fan Wuxian was puzzled.
Wei Xi continued: "Next year, next year, it will be of great use, next year we will gather more than 300,000 infantry, and we will fight in one go, and we will defeat Shillia, Egypt and the Arabian Peninsula in one go, and end the Great Food War!" ”
Hearing this, Fan Wuxian, Jiang Zhi and the staff officers who eavesdropped with their ears were in a fluctuating mood, and they couldn't be excited!
Next year, the Great Food War will basically end, the Western Expedition will achieve a phased victory, and the grand blueprint will be half realized, and the next step will be Europa and Constantinople!
The success of the western expedition is no longer out of reach, the big cannibals can't resist the gunpowder, and the Europa people can resist, so the devil believes it!
"Well, by the way, you haven't said why don't you let the kids master cavalry, archery, and foot combat!" Fan Wuxian urged Jiang to say.
Jiang Shi took out a notebook and pencil and drew a picture for him.
Fan Wuxian looked at this picture, it seemed to be a tube, with a board machine, and a wheel behind the tube.
Jiang Shi smiled and said, "This is a breech flintlock pistol!" “
"Breech flintlock pistol?" Fan Wushu did not understand the meaning, and Jiang Zhi explained: "The gun uses bullets ......" He drew a pointed bullet, pointed out that the bullet and gunpowder were put in the chamber of the gun, the plate machine was pulled, and the rear wheel of the gun polished the flint to ignite, ignite the gunpowder, and push the bullet!
"This gun can kill people in minutes, and the gunner's training can be as fast as one month or three months as slow as a qualified gunner!" Then Jiang Zhi briefly talked about the use of a musket, which was quick to get started, and he could train a lot of gunners, and he would not have a problem with hitting the horse team by taking three shots.
Hearing Fan Wuxian, he gasped and said, "Then riding and shooting, wouldn't it be okay to throw it aside?" ”
"Yes!" Wei Xi looked up to the sky and let out a long breath and said, "We will be the last batch of archers in history, and when the hot weapons are put into use, the archers will become history!" ”
Hearing this, Jiang Zhi and Fan Wuxian were silent.
Not only the last group of archers, what weapon masters, martial arts masters, one shot down, all become scum!
Fan Wuxian's eyes widened and said, "We, we really have to cherish the last days of this cold weapon period!" ”
