Volume 1 Chapter 445 This is the deterrent power of gunpowder weapons

The heavy stone throwing machine is as high as one zhang five on the pedestal alone, and the throwing rod is more than three zhang long, during the test, once a boulder weighing two hundred pounds, thrown more than half a mile away, ultra-long projection distance, super strong projection ability, so that everyone is dumbfounded.

Ben Gongzi was also secretly speechless, even if it was a forty-two-pounder cannon from the time of the Great Voyage, there was no way to project such a heavy object out of the canopy.

As for the medium ballista, although the range is not inferior to that of a heavy catapult, and the accuracy is much higher than that of a heavy catapult, it can continuously hit the same target the size of a living person two hundred paces away. However, its projection weight can only reach about one-fifth of that of a heavy stone thrower. However, for this era, it is completely sufficient.

I raised my head and leaned over the pergola to look at the princes and nobles above the city. Well, although the distance is more than two hundred paces, outside the attack range of those siege machines above the city, Ben Gongzi still faintly saw that General Qu Tu and others were guarding a young man, standing in the middle of the city tower, pointing at us.

"Yuanfang, on" Ben Gongzi waved his hand, and Li Yuanfang, who was wearing a heavy armor, said yes, and brought my mount, and just when I was about to jump on the horse, a hand next to me stretched out to block it.

"Brother Xian, this is still too dangerous." Wei Yunqi leaned over and said earnestly. "It's better to shout from a safe distance."

"It doesn't matter, Ben Gongzi really wants to see if they have the courage to do so. Don't worry, there are no arrows that can shoot me in this world. Ben Gongzi sniffed, peeked at the Yaoguang girl who was standing not far away, and said with a heroic expression.

"Brother Wuji, I'll go with you too." Hearing this, the Yaoguang girl who was about to burst into stars came forward and was sternly rejected by my son. "You stay, obediently listen to your husband's words, otherwise, I will really have to use the family law."

Yaoguang girl's pretty face suddenly rose two red clouds, a look of shame and annoyance, and a pretty appearance that couldn't be attacked, which made my son even more encouraged, wow hahaha......

"Sister, you haven't married yet, how can he call himself...... Hiss, pain, pain, pain, ......" Li Xuanba, who didn't know whether to live or die, once again became the punching bag of Yaoguang's sister.

Ben Gongzi confidently slowly rode forward, beside him, more than a dozen heavily armored knights lined up, well, I requested. At first, Li Yuanfang thought that it should be like on the battlefield, surround Ben Gongzi in the center and squeeze them together. But the problem is that now it's not about fighting in the field, it's about going to the city walls to fool people. If they were all crammed into a pile, in case a big stone was really thrown down on it, it was very likely that Ben Gongzi, who was protected in the center, would not be able to move, and become the first time-traveler elite in the history of the crossing to be smashed by a stone-throwing machine on the battlefield.

Moving forward slowly, Ben Gongzi is getting more and more weak, but fortunately, he is wearing a full body of heavy armor, and even the face armor is put down, and no one can see Ben Gongzi's expression.

In the end, it stopped at a distance of twenty paces from the moat, although this distance was already within the attack range of the catapult above the city, but such a close distance, but the catapult had nowhere to exert force, the only thing that was feared was the kind of bed crossbow, that thing did not matter how far or near, and the powerful kinetic energy and range were definitely not a joke.

However, if you don't take some risks, then life is too boring, and the most important thing is that I believe in Qu Tutong's character, and I believe in the moral character of ancient people.

What's more, seeing the faces full of nervousness and doubt, and even panic and uneasiness above the city, I know that these guys are actually very scared.

After riding my horse and standing still, I lifted my visor, took the big bronze horn from Li Yuanfang's hand, and shouted loudly to the city wall: "Listen to the people above, on behalf of the soldiers of the Chinese Rejuvenation Army, and the thousands of people who have been explained by our Chinese Rejuvenation Army, I will speak to you......

"Stop talking against the thief and wait for my own courtiers of the Great Sui Dynasty, but now, but doing such perverse things, aren't you afraid of being abandoned by the people of the world?" An old man with gray hair shouted at the top of the city, pointing his finger like a sword.

Ben Gongzi sneered: "Perverse? I only know that Yang Guang ignored the opposition of the people of the world, and the northern expedition to Goguryeo was perverse; Regardless of the chaos in the world, the smoke is everywhere, and the building palace is built in order to enjoy; The soldiers fought bravely to kill the enemy, relieved the plight of Yanmen, and made great achievements but could not be rewarded as promised......"

Quarreling with Ben Gongzi, whether you are a six- or seven-year-old kid or a sixty or seventy-year-old guy, you will not be my opponent of this excellent time-traveling youth who is proficient in history, good at debate, and good at sophistication.

“…… How many loyal ministers and aspirants wept blood for the country, but were killed because of the words of traitorous ministers, and how many patriots were killed and degraded because they told the truth? ”

"Look at the world, right? Keep your eyes open and take a closer look at what has led to the displacement of millions of people and the destruction of their families. It was because of Yang Guang and the inaction of the court that the Huanghuang Dynasty collapsed. If the Son of Heaven can be inspired, for the people and the country, the people of the world should support it, if it is mediocre, arrogant and lascivious, then the people of the world should abandon it......"

"Hugh said nonsense, the Son of Heaven is ordered by the sky, and the ancients are ......" A large number of courtiers began to scream above the city, wanting to fight with this son.

But will we be afraid? Sharp and well-founded words, copied the copper horn to refute one by one. suppressed the guys who jumped up one by one, and were speechless, and there were many voices above the city, like countless green-headed flies hovering above the tower of Chang'an City.

“…… I stand here today to tell you. Chang'an Jiancheng, for me and for the Huaxia Renaissance Army, is just like a local chicken and a dog, and the reason why it has not been attacked has not besieged the city. That's because we don't want to hurt any innocent people, and we don't want to go against our own people. ”

"I know that there must be people who laugh at me for being ashamed, so in order to prove that the Chinese Renaissance Army has this ability, I specially invite you to take a look today. I just want you to know what kind of combat effectiveness and destructive power the Chinese Renaissance Army has, we did not attack the Western Capital, not because we cannot, but we are unwilling to create more killings and hurt the innocent. "When I said this, I couldn't help but smile when I saw that most of the eyes of the people above fell on the heavy catapults and medium ballistas in the distance.

"Today, let you take a look at the strength of my Huaxia Revival Army, and then, give you another five days, if you don't surrender, then, don't blame my Huaxia Revival Army, let the western capital Chang'an, become a ruin. In that case, you will also become sinners who have harmed millions of innocent people in Chang'an City because of this evil result. After throwing down the threat viciously, Ben Gongzi turned around and rode his horse and ran wildly into the distance.

On the way to escape, I looked back, and there was still chaos on it, and there were even people shouting that people were in the city, and the city was destroyed, but more people were silent, including Qu Tutong, staring at those overly tall stone throwers whose faces sank like water, and I really couldn't see his expression change at the moment, but I believe that he would be moved soon.

Returning to the original position, I gave the order and began to conduct exercises. As the flags in the hands of the standard-bearers waved, and as the soldiers stirred the pulleys, the throwing poles that looked as long as they could pierce the sky gradually fell down.

After that, the explosives bag weighing two hundred catties was packed in the throwing spoon, and the ballistas over there were also prepared, loaded not with explosives, but with polished stones, and their attack targets were different, just on the side, on the left, there were scarecrow clusters with a length and width of about 100 paces, densely vertical, and they were also covered with various colored clothes, of course, there were sticks next to them, representing weapons.

On the right, there were ten red targets the size of a human figure, two hundred paces away

"Ballista group, aim at the red target point in front of you, shoot" The red flag waved down as the shouting order sounded. Only a few muffled sounds were heard, and then the round stone bullet flew out of the wall at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye.

Soon, I heard a tom, a few loud noises, and the five red targets were instantly smashed apart by the cobblestone, and even the debris flew to a height of more than ten meters, and then fell. The noisy noise above the city dissipated in an instant.

However, before they could fully react, the heavy throwing maneuvered, and with the sudden rise of the throwing rod, the huge and heavy bomb bag in the throwing spoon soared into the sky, and slowly drew a complete arc, slowly landing within the range of the scarecrow.

Immediately after, almost everyone's eyes were dark, and in a swirling circle, an orange-red flame rose into the air, rolling flames and thick smoke, as if transformed into a magma demon crawling out of hell, roaring, waving hideous claws, and leaping towards the sky.

The loud sound that shook the earth swept through the vast Guanzhong Plain, and even made the towering and seemingly indestructible Chang'an City Tower tremble.

The officers and soldiers of the court who had not seen the power of such a terrible weapon, as well as the representatives of the Women's Army under Yaoguang Meizi, all looked at the large area of the test site that was shrouded in smoke and flames.

Above the city, there was a deathly silence, and then, the sound of ghosts and ghosts resounded, and it can be imagined from the sound that countless civil and military ministers, dignitaries and nobles who had rushed to join in the fun, wanted to leave this dangerous city, and leave the weapon that was more powerful and shocking than the thunder.
