At the graduation ceremony of the Military Academy, when the shooting performance was held, he was trying to get his heart two hundred meters away, which surprised many generals.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the tricks. At this time, the maximum range of bows and arrows is 200 meters, and the effective range is 120 meters.

Some powerful generals can increase the number, but ordinary soldiers have basic range.

Even if the bed crossbow has a long range, it is inconvenient to assemble and launch a bed crossbow with a large range, and it cannot be compared with a bow and arrow musket.

When the target reached 250 meters, Li Jilong held his breath and concentrated, felt the wind speed with his heart, then stared at his heart, and decisively pulled the trigger!

Bang!

The gunshot touched the hearts of many people. Looking in the sound, I saw the target in the distance falling to the ground. The people watching the ceremony applauded, but the generals were not concerned about this!

"Come on, get all the targets!"

At Gao Huaide's order, soldiers immediately took the target to the front of the rostrum, looked at the bullet holes on it, and then looked at the thickness of the target.

The target used for shooting is woven with straw on the surface, but a layer of iron is added in the middle, and the overall strength is not weaker than ordinary armor.

On several targets placed on the ground, bullets passed through the target without exception, especially the target 250 meters, which was no different from others.

"good!"

Finally, a general called out OK. At this time, the firearms had already started to be promoted, but at the beginning, the firearms had a short range, slow firing rate, and low power. They were not as convenient as crossbows when used, so some generals didn't care at all.

In contrast, the current firearms have long range, fast firing speed, great power, and guaranteed accuracy.

Guo Hao smiled when he saw this. It was all Shen Xin's credit. After her improvement, the gunpowder has not only become much more powerful, but its stability has also been improved.

Although bullets were also made, can bullets carefully crafted by craftsmen be called bullets?

It is almost the same as a work of art, so bullets cannot be mass-produced at present, which is a good result.

Now the Geju Academy is manufacturing molds, and at the same time, the research on metal proportions and rifles has also made progress, but this is the highest secret of the Song Dynasty and it is impossible for Guo Hao to show it.

After seeing the latest research results, the generals dare not underestimate the firearms anymore. Even though the firearms are not as convenient as crossbows now, they have an advantage that crossbows do not have!

Save effort!

If it is an ordinary bow and arrow, the soldiers will only pull it twelve times at most. If there are more soldiers, they will be exhausted. Forced demands may cause the soldiers to be injured.

This is true for ordinary bows and arrows, let alone stronger bows and arrows. Even if the crossbow arrows are not laborious, it still requires strength to turn the strings.

In this way, the thermal energy generated by gunpowder explosion is much greater than that of the bowstring machine, and there is no external force conversion, which is an absolute advantage.

The shooting performance once again pushed the graduation ceremony to a climax. The following training performances looked less exciting, and the people were happy to watch.

The performance ended, the first graduation ceremony of the Song Dynasty Military Academy was completed, and the first new military parade of the Song Dynasty was also over.

The last item is the honorary dean of the college and Emperor Guo Hao of the Song Dynasty. Guo Hao stood in front of a simple loudspeaker and looked at the students below, feeling deeply moved.
Chapter completed!
