Li Chengqian has researched a big killer and wants to fulfill his bet.
Li Shimin had an ominous premonition in his heart, Li Chengqian came prepared.
He scratched his head and looked at Changsun Wuji, "Auxiliary machine, what do you think of this matter? Chengqian suddenly wants to complete the bet with me."
Changsun Wuji looked serious, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that the weapon developed by His Royal Highness is related to the explosion outside the city."
"It's just that I have no idea what kind of weapon he developed." Li Shimin stood up, paced the hall, thinking secretly.
He has marched and fought for many years, and he has never seen any weapons, and he has never used any weapons. It is really unheard of or seen that a weapon that could cause such a movement.
"Forget it, anyway, we will see Chengqian tomorrow, and tomorrow we will know what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd."
"Auxiliary machine, tomorrow I will invite all the princes to go to the western suburbs with Chengqian to complete the bet. I just want to see what kind of weapon can be so powerful."
Li Shimin turned his head and said to Changsun Wuji.
Changsun Wuji cupped his hands and said, "It's Your Majesty, the old minister will arrange it now."
Chang'an City...
Western suburbs...
In front of a hillside ten miles away from the Shenwei Arsenal.
Mo Hongzhe and the others were very excited when they saw the five black Shenwei artillery mounted on wheels in front of them and tied with red ribbons.
This is what they developed over the past two months.
It can't be said to be research and development, because the drawings are all ready-made, it can only be said that they were made according to the drawings given by Li Chengqian.
At this time, Li Chengqian was already a god in their eyes.
They have been deeply impressed by Li Chengqian's unconstrained imagination.
This kind of weapon is beyond anyone's imagination.
"His Royal Highness, let's begin."
Mo Hongzhe looked at Li Chengqian expectantly, he couldn't wait to see the power of this divine cannon.
The Shenwei cannon has a maximum range of 500 meters and an effective range of 500 meters.
This is an existence that has been elusive for all weapons in the world so far.
Li Chengqian nodded.
The eldest grandson on the side rushed forward, drew out the horizontal knife at his waist, and said loudly: "The Shenwei artillery is ready to fire."
The words fall...
25 people rushed to the Shenwei artillery in front.
In a group of five, one group is in charge of a Shenwei artillery.
The Shenwei Cannon is similar to the Field Mountain Cannon. It is lighter in weight, and most of its parts are detachable and can be dragged by mules and horses.
With the cooperation of the five people, the Shenwei artillery began to adjust the angle and load the ammunition.
The muzzle was aimed at the five boulders on the hillside in the distance, at a distance of about [-] or so.
Chapter 416 The Power of Shenwei Artillery
A group of Kamui, the loading is complete. "
"Shenwei Group [-], complete loading."
"Shenwei three groups, reloading is complete."
……
In just a moment, the five groups of shells were loaded respectively, and the angle of the artillery was adjusted in place.
The red flag in Changsun Chong's hand fell, and he said loudly, "Fire!"
Boom...boom...boom...
Cannonballs whizzed out of the bore one after another, and bombarded towards the boulders on the hillside in the distance.
The shock caused by the moment the cannon was ejected made everyone's hearts tremble.
The cannonball wrapped in red flames was as fast as lightning and as fast as thunder, shocking people's hearts.
just for a moment...
The five shells accurately hit the five boulders on the hillside in the distance.
The roaring sound followed, shattering the clouds and piercing into the sky, making people's hearts tense and daunting.
The roar was accompanied by the explosion of the boulder, and countless small stones splashed out from the boulder, followed by a circle of air waves.
The ground trembled from the shock of this round of shelling.
The surrounding withered grass slowly started to burn.
Even though everyone had fully prepared their hearts, they still couldn't recover from the shock of the Shenwei artillery. This kind of shock was not only visible to the eyes, but also a shock to the soul.
For a while, they couldn't find the words to describe their feelings at this moment, and they felt their brains were blank.
They all looked at Li Chengqian at the side in unison.
It's just that his face is still calm and calm, without any expression of shock.
It seems that everything is within reason and everything is within his grasp.
Even a little dissatisfied.
This really made it hard for them to imagine what was in Li Chengqian's head.
Chang Sun Chong woke up from the shock, and continued: "Ready to shoot."
His voice also brought everyone back to reality, although they were shocked, they recovered quickly, which is the basic quality of a white-robed army.
Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without being surprised.
"Shenwei Group 1000, Shenwei Group [-], direction at eleven o'clock, distance [-] and [-] meters."
"Shenwei Group 300, Shenwei Group [-], at twelve o'clock, a distance of [-] meters."
"Shenwei five groups, one o'clock direction, a distance of 500 meters."
These direction signs and distance verification words were re-designed by Li Chengqian for the Shenwei Army, so as to facilitate the transmission of information between the commander and the gunner, with accurate language and precise distance.
At present, Chang Sun Chong's position belongs to the commander, who coordinates the artillery tactics.
The use of artillery is not to say that the front is fired, and the rear is bombarded to death, attacking without thinking, but with shelling tactics.
Sometimes it is necessary to test the impact point of a single bombardment, sometimes it is necessary to bombard a small group of enemies with double or multiple rounds, sometimes it is necessary to continuously bombard at fixed points, and sometimes it is necessary to cover with full artillery fire.
There are also four rapid fire, six rapid fire, and eight rapid fire various shelling tactics to maximize the results of shelling.
According to changes in the battlefield, the firing of artillery also changes accordingly.
If there is no one to command, who knows which cannon will fire and which cannon will not fire, then it will be a mess.
Therefore, Li Chengqian formulated a mature organization system and tactical system for the Shenwei Artillery Corps.
A Shenwei artillery is in charge of a team, a team of five people, the first gunner is the aimer, the second gunner is the opening and closing hand, the third gunner is the loader, the fourth gunner is the ammunition hand, and the fifth gunner is the fuze hand.
"Shenwei group, the loading is complete."
"Shenwei Group [-], complete loading."
"Shenwei three groups, reloading is complete."
……
The red flag in Changsun Chong's hand dropped again, "Fire!"
Boom...boom...boom...
In an instant...
The five shells landed precisely on the impact point, and the stones placed in advance were shattered.
At this time, everyone's face was filled with excitement and joy.
The advent of the Shenwei artillery is a milestone for the development of weapons in Datang and even the world.
Datang has also officially entered the era of hot weapons.
Li Chengqian's speed of conquering the world will also be accelerated by the advent of Shenwei artillery.
After all, even the top army in the world cannot compete with Shenwei artillery.
As long as Li Chengqian thinks, any army will be a pot of broth in front of him.
"Your Highness, we succeeded!"
The old man Wan Chuan could hardly restrain the excitement in his heart.
He didn't expect that he would be able to participate in such a top-notch gunpowder research and development project in his life, and become a core figure in it.
"Hahaha, it succeeded..." Mo Hongzhe also laughed wildly, unrestrainedly, "God's will, it's God's will, I didn't expect my Mo family to participate in the research of such a peerless art. God bless my Mo family."
"His Royal Highness, you are truly a god-man."
Mo Hongzhe's words were definitely not flattery, but that Li Chengqian was already like a god in his heart.
In just a few years, the Mohist sect has become the top sect of the Tang Dynasty from Mo Hongzhe alone, who was about to cut off the lineage.
With the help of Li Chengqian, Mo Hongzhe took a piece of land in the northern suburb of Chang'an City and established Mozong.
He also privately found many Mohist lost inheritances for Mo Hongzhe.
In the Tang Dynasty, the number of Mohist disciples has exceeded 5000, which is why Mo Hongzhe deliberately controlled the number.
Today's Mohism is more prosperous than the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods of the various schools of thought.
He even found a branch of Mohism.
He has made immortal contributions to the continuation of the Mohist tradition.
All this is due to Li Chengqian pouring real money for him.
In Li Chengqian's words, things that can be solved with money are nothing serious.
And as long as it is spending money for his own people, Li Chengqian never asks, just criticizes with one word.
The more he is like this, everyone always saves when spending money, and never spends money that should not be spent.
However, Li Chengqian has always taught them that the money earned is spent, so don't be stingy.
Looking at the Shenwei artillery and the thick smoke in the distance.
All the people around showed excited expressions, and some even wept with joy.
Two tests are enough to prove the power and stability of Shenwei artillery.
In the future, the city wall will no longer be so indestructible in Li Chengqian's eyes.
In this situation and in this situation, Li Chengqian still had that calm and calm expression.
It's not that he has to deliberately pretend to be this coward, it's just that the thermal weapons he knows are much better than this Shenwei cannon.
In the eyes of Li Chengqian, the Shenwei artillery is only a primary hot weapon.
With the black powder and the blueprint of the Shenwei artillery, Li Chengqian is confident that he can develop the gun in the shortest possible time.
At that time, it is time to truly sweep the world.
Li Chengqian said indifferently: "Hongzhe, the Shenwei artillery will be mass-produced soon. I want to form a Shenwei army. When the Shenwei army is formed, I will be the first to attack Tubo."
Mo Hongzhe saluted and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, before the spring of next year, all weapons and equipment from the Shenwei Army will be offered with both hands."
Li Chengqian nodded and said, "You must remember that this is the most important secret in our military affairs of the Tang Dynasty. If there is any change, I will allow you to kill it first and then play it."
Mo Hongzhe said with a serious face: "Yes, His Royal Highness."
Chapter 417
The next day...
The cold wind howled and the snowflakes flew.
