"The charge is one base, the angle is forty-five degrees, and the fire is fired. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

At the sound of an order, a tiger squat cannon that was fixed on the ground immediately roared, and the plain not far away was immediately covered by a rain of bullets and turned into a ruined ruin.

After the shelling was over, a soldier immediately pulled a long rope and began to measure the distance, and after the results appeared, Li Chang saluted Xiao Feng who was standing behind him and replied: "Tell the lord, the firing range is two hundred and eighty-seven zhang, and the effective killing radius is one zhang." ”

Somewhat surprised, Xiao Feng swept over the iron cannon placed next to him and asked, "Is this the newly improved Tiger Squat Cannon?" As the main promoter of the development of firearms, she knew that this Tiger Squat Cannon was an iron cast pipe from the beginning, and there was nothing else, which could be said to be extremely simple.

But the cannon in front of it has a new look, because it takes the method of hydraulic forging to forge steel, so it does not have the reinforcing iron ring used to strengthen the gun breech, which is extremely simple, and the tail is directly placed on the ground through the seat plate, so as to greatly reduce the recoil, and leave a bamboo shoot at the front of the muzzle, so as to install a triangular bracket to facilitate the soldier to support it up for attack.

If the previous one was a rudimentary primitive weapon, then the one in front of it already has the basic structure of a modern mortar.

And this new Tiger Squat Cannon also uses a red crystal ignition mechanism, so there is no need to open a hole in the tail, only the soldiers need to include the true element in it to excite, it can be said that its rate of fire far exceeds the previous Tiger Squat Cannon, which can reach 30 to 40 rounds per minute, which is enough to completely defeat a cavalry in a short time.

"That's right. Based on the previous combat experience, we drew on the suggestions of the front-line soldiers and re-made suggestions to Li Mingcheng of the Logistics Department and the Iron Smelting Institute. And this is the newly developed Tiger Squat Cannon. The caliber is two inches, the length is 2.2 feet, and the weapon weighs 40 pounds, so it can be operated by only two people. Li Chang replied immediately.

Secretly happy in her heart, Xiao Feng knew that if this weapon was installed on a large scale, then the losses of the Red Feng Army could be reduced a lot, so she asked: "What about gunpowder?" If there is no gunpowder, the tiger squat cannon is not as good as a burning stick, so she has always attached great importance to the production of gunpowder.

And before that, in a fierce battle with Nahe monk Badu, the gunpowder stored in ten years had been exhausted, and if there was no gunpowder at the time of the battle, their Red Phoenix Army would be completely blinded.

Li Chang immediately replied: "According to the instructions of the lord, a large number of saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal are being purchased, and it is estimated that by the time the war starts, the gunpowder reserve will reach 60,000 catties." Since the occupation of Taiyuan, he sent soldiers into Taiyuan to search for saltpeter and sulfur, and this large city of Nuo did not disappoint him, and immediately found tens of thousands of catties of saltpeter and sulfur, and according to so much saltpeter and sulfur, it was enough to make 60,000 catties of gunpowder before the war.

According to the use of eight taels of gunpowder according to the base number, 120,000 shells can be made.

In World War II, these 120,000 shells would have been consumed in a single skirmish, but in this medieval era, it was enough to exert its great power.

"300,000 catties? is still too little. Xiao Feng said in a deep voice, and asked again: "That's right." You use silk to wrap the gunpowder?" she had noticed before that the gunner had filled the Tiger Squat Cannon with not granular gunpowder, but a column of gunpowder wrapped in silk.

Speaking of this, it was not Xiao Feng's opinion, but the attention of everyone in the General Staff.

Because they found in the post-war statistics that there was a great relationship between the range of the shell and the content of gunpowder, so in order to standardize the operation of the tiger squat gun, it was proposed to wrap the gunpowder in white paper and the like according to a certain weight, so that it was convenient for the gunner to make a choice in the shortest time.

Li Chang immediately replied: "That's right, it's silk." According to our tests, only silk is able to burn in the shortest possible time and does not leave embers behind. ”

"Silk? It's not cheap. With a wry smile, although Xiao Feng complained a few times, he was also very relieved to see that these people had come up with the base of gunpowder firing ammunition so quickly, and replied: "You have done a good job in this matter." Keep in mind that front-line soldiers don't have that much time to weigh gunpowder, and what you do can greatly increase the rate at which guns are fired, and reduce the way they operate. This is a great achievement, and I will reward you. But you should also pay attention, you must write down the range, charge base and angle of this Tiger Squat Cannon to me as soon as possible, make it into an artillery drill and then print it and distribute it to the soldiers, and make sure that they are familiar with the use of the Tiger Squat Cannon in the shortest possible time. Got it?"

"Got it!"

The group replied in unison, and the sound immediately shook the sky.

Looking at these seven-foot men, Xiao Feng was even more confident, looking at the distance and whispering: "Look, one day I will make you pay the price of blood." That's right, she has always believed that as long as she can firmly grasp the direction of these athletes, then one day she will be able to completely expel the Mongolian Tatars from the Central Plains, and now is only the first step.

At this moment, not far away, another signal soldier rode a horse, and after the war horse stopped, the signal soldier on the seat immediately said: "Tell the lord, thirty miles away from the north of the city, I found that a large number of martial arts people gathered in the area of Jinzhuang, I don't know what happened. ”

"Martial arts people?" Xiao Feng sighed lightly and asked, "Can you be sure who the other party is?"

"My subordinates don't know. I only know that those people wear a lot of things, from the official robes of high-ranking officials and nobles, to the robes of Taoist priests, the robes of Buddhism, and even the short plackets of farmers, and the skirts of women and children. We were going to rush into it and grab a tongue to find out. I didn't expect that the other party's strength was strong, but he was a master who could do the true yuan release. The brothers knew that they were invincible, so they had to retreat and find another way. The commander immediately replied.

"As a martial artist, it's really strange to be like this. Xiao Feng smiled, and there were already doubts in his heart.

After all, this world is a martial arts world, and the profundity of martial arts determines a person's identity and status, and those guys can cultivate to the outside of the true yuan, which shows that their status must be extraordinary, but they are now ragged and disgraced, which is really strange.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng immediately ordered: "Since this is the case, why don't you go and take a look?" Li Chang, pass on my order, immediately let the first battalion move towards Jinzhuang, and make sure to surround them for me, and no one is allowed to leave. After all, they are martial artists with a certain strength, and it will not be good if they let them break the rules of my Red Phoenix Army. ”

With a whistle, Bai Lin rushed into the air, just picked up Xiao Feng, and rushed towards Jinzhuang first. (To be continued.) )
