    For a person who has never been exposed to firearms to be able to keenly capture the usage patterns of firearms from the previous battle results of the Chinese Empire, this has to arouse my attention.  So he was thrown into the newly formed firearms regiment of the Praetorian Guard.  As a result, his training was extremely strict. He was able to get first place in every drill. He was very strict and could treat the soldiers well, just like his father. In the end, my son boldly promoted him to the firearms department of the Guards.  The position of acting leader of the group.  Today will be the first time that the Guards Firearms Regiment shows their heroic appearance in front of the public. Well, although there are no ordinary people as the audience, there are a large number of military generals here today, and they even participate in military exercises.  As an audience of more than 20,000 Chinese Renaissance Army soldiers, I hope that Qu Tu Chuan will not disappoint me.  Soon, twenty-four brass artillery pieces each pulled by six horses appeared in people's eyes. This kind of artillery used fine steel as the gun mount and brass as the gun body. It also used a hydraulic retraction machine.  As a recoil reducing device.  "This is an infantry field gun. The overall weight is one thousand three hundred and seventy-five kilograms and seven taels. It adopts a mother-and-child gun design" A cannon casting expert next to him began to explain the origin of this kind of artillery to the civil and military ministers present.  and model number.  "You can launch blooming projectiles weighing six kilograms to a distance of 1,500 meters. If you want to attack fortresses, you must use solid artillery shells. The weight of the shells is eleven kilograms, and the range is about eight hundred meters.  , the angle of the artillery can be adjusted from forty-five degrees to zero degrees for firing. Well, that is, the artillery fires flatly. When firing flatly, it can use shotgun attacks. Each shotgun shell can eject more than 350 lead pieces, covering  The destructive power can reach up to three hundred meters" Listening to the artillery expert's story, he admired those beautiful and slender artillery pieces. The weight of the cannonballs was very close to the weight of the six-pound cannons during the Great Navigation. However, because we  It uses a conical warhead, so the caliber is much smaller, so the barrel looks very slender.  Not only did it reduce the caliber, it also saved the brass used in the heavy body and reduced the weight of the artillery. But even so, the weight of the artillery still reached 1,400 kilograms.  Soon, all twenty-four brass cannons were ready.  As the commander next to him reported the distance, the artillery began to adjust the elevation angle of the artillery one by one. Then, when the flag was waved, the artillery one by one spewed out tubes of white smoke, and a dense burst of smoke appeared in the sky.  The screams streaked across the sky, and then landed on the infantry phalanx made of straw men more than 1,300 meters away.  Although they are straw men, at the front of these straw men are nearly a hundred fully armed Mo Daoshou's heavy armors, and after that, there are nearly three hundred armors with plate and chain composite armor, and after that, there are Mingguang armor, Shanwen armor and so on.  Armor, various iron, leather, and even cloth armors.  Therefore, looking from a distance, there is no stiffness and sparseness of the straw man. Instead, it looks like a well-disciplined army standing in the wilderness.  At this moment, the screams gradually came to the top of the military formation.  From a distance, you can see a ball of light bursting out about ten or twenty meters above the infantry square, followed by billowing smoke. However, a few shells fell directly to the ground, and only one shell fell directly to the ground.  One exploded the moment it landed on the ground, others did not respond immediately after landing, and several others exploded at an altitude of nearly a hundred meters.  However, there are about fifteen artillery shells that can explode at a distance of five to thirty meters above the infantry square, accounting for nearly 60% of the total. I am very satisfied. In this era when only gunpowder fuzes can be used, we can achieve this.  Such a success rate is already extremely difficult.  In order to make the gunpowder fuze burn at the same speed, the gunpowder of the fuze has an extremely strict standard and is completely made by machinery, which reduces the difference in burning time caused by human factors.  There is really no way to use the contact fuse now. I can only stare. Although I can use flint to make fire, the speed of using flint to make fire is too slow and is not suitable for use on artillery shells.  Just when I was feeling emotional, the second shooting started again. White smoke and thunderous roars resounded throughout the world, and the top of the infantry square formed by the straw men was already shrouded in a large thick cloud.  In the fog, even if they are very far away, you can still see the grass targets constantly falling this way and that, as if the wheat fields about to be harvested in the autumn were suddenly hit by a hailstorm.  The fragmented shrapnel raged mercilessly, crazily tearing apart any object that blocked their path, whether it was steel or leather.  Seeing this scene, all the court officials who were watching were completely shocked and even shocked. It could be seen from their expressions that an unprecedented fear and happiness were wandering in their eyes.  "I'm glad that this weapon is in the hands of the Chinese Empire, but what I'm afraid of is the shocking and terrifying lethality of this weapon.  However, many civil servants were so frightened that they almost sat down on the ground. It took them a long time to recover, but they were too lazy to sit down again and stood to enjoy the continuous roar of artillery fire.  After five rounds of artillery, the hugeThe phalanx was already a mess, and everyone stood up and stretched their necks to look over there.  Seeing a few generals looking anxious and ready to pounce, I quickly stopped them.  "Don't worry, I haven't played it yet. There is still a good show. It's not too late to see the effect after you have finished enjoying it. After the five cannons are fired, it only takes forty seconds at most. With such a rate of fire, I can  The young master let out a long breath and was very satisfied. This is the new breech-loaded gun that I invented by combining the characteristics of later Franco machine guns, breech-loaded guns, and old-fashioned front-loaded guns. It fires ten rounds each time.  Just clean the barrel again. However, if you really want continuous high-intensity firing, you must clean the barrel every five rounds and spray the barrel with water to cool it down. The highest endurance test was done last month.  After following these procedures, you can fire a hundred rounds continuously without exploding the barrel. Of course, this is also beneficial to the excellent brass barrel material which is more malleable and super wear-resistant.  As for the cast-iron cannon, I'm afraid it will explode with only seventy or eighty rounds at most. "Brother-in-law, tell them to hurry up. We are still waiting to go down and enjoy it."  "Li Xuanba scratched his head and scratched his head with an anxious look, which made people speechless. He is already a father, but he is still so careless. "Well, this guy's baby has been born, and he is really a boy. He has a famous name, huh  , I started it. Unfortunately, Tsinghua University and Fudan University have become the names of Li Yuanfang¡¯s sons. Therefore, after accepting the important task entrusted to me by Queen Dou, I, the Emperor, racked my brains and looked at that person with extremely white skin and appearance.  Instead of picking up Li Xuanba, I picked up his mother-in-law's child. I originally wanted to call him Li Bai based on his skin, but after thinking about it, I was afraid that a great writer in another historical time and space would curse me, so I decided to call him Li Mubai.  In other words, his father is too dark, and he doesn¡¯t like people who are as dark and skinny as his father. He yearns for his mother¡¯s skin color, so he calls him Li Mubai. Of course, I only told my mother-in-law this explanation, which made the two women directly talk.  Laughing and lying on the floor. And that's what we called him at that time. According to the Yin-Yang theory, it represents Yang, masculinity and other praises, and Mu, naturally means that this baby likes to be as heroic as his father.  Queen Dou was so happy that she couldn't help but praise her, and Li Xuanba was so happy that his back molars were exposed, which was so disgusting. In the future, I wonder if this Li Mubai will be like his father.  Just thinking about fighting, well, it seems that the education of Li Xuanba's son has to fall on the kindergarten. "Well, at this time, six hundred breastplate musketeers lined up neatly, and to the rhythm of bamboo whistles,  With neat steps, they arrived about a hundred meters away from a grass target military formation, and then split into three rows of skirmishers with two hundred people in each row at an extremely fast speed. Then, with the sound of whistles, the Brass Musketeers began.  Aim and shoot, then step back and reload. The second row starts to aim and shoot. After the second row finishes shooting, it starts to step back and reload. The third row starts to aim and shoot, just like the waves of smoke rising one row after another.  They rolled and dispersed into the distance. And the six hundred musketeers fired in an orderly manner. Each row of bullets was like a sharp sickle harvesting mature crops. When they retreated to 250 meters, they fired.  You can still see the straw targets being hit so that grass clippings fly. Finally, the shooting stopped at 250 meters, and in just one hundred steps, tens of thousands of bullets flew into the battlefield lined up with straw targets.  In the formation, nearly two-thirds of the entire battle formation had fallen down. Even those who were still standing were already covered in scars. Then, as the whistle sounded, all the spearmen took out the bayonets on their waists in unison.  It was stuck in the slot under the muzzle, and then pointed forward in an orderly manner. Like six hundred sharp spears, it began to perform an assassination. The first row roared and thrust out the bayonet, followed by the second row.  , Third row Every time there was an assassination, there was a uniform cry of killing, which made all the generals stand up, and some even couldn't help but touch the hilt of the saber at their waist.  After continuously charging back to a hundred meters away from the unlucky grass target, they once again formed a team to show that the martial arts exercise was completed. But before everyone could take a breath, there were 500 gunmen wearing bright silver plate chain composite armor.  The cavalry came out of the crowd and galloped forward. With a sharp whistle, five hundred lancers raised their hands and aimed ahead. There was a roar like fried beans. A grass target formation two hundred meters away suddenly swayed.  , Then he made a beautiful turn, then ran, and began to charge, shoot, charge again, and shoot again on the galloping horse.  Just on the horseback, relying on the high bridge saddle and your feet to control the horse, turn your upper body to shoot.  Although the rate of fire is much lower than that of bows and arrows, the problem is that its range is twice that of crossbows. In other words, lancers can attack cavalry within the opponent's range, but cavalry cannot hit them.  them.
