Chapter 90 Guo Dapao

After listening to Guo Kang's words, Theodora fell into deep thought.

Guo Kang is very confident in her understanding. After all, according to the academic qualifications of this era, she is higher than him. Although the knowledge of education and the world he has seen are different, Guo Kang believes that as long as enough information is provided, smart people should understand

can still understand.

He walked behind the chariot and found Li Xuanying, Jessica and others squatting in a row here, not knowing what they were doing.

"What the hell are you doing?" He said speechlessly: "Hurry up and prepare the cannon?"

"Well, isn't there something going on outside..." Brother Zelik defended.

"If something happens, I won't delay your reloading." Guo Kang pointed out: "Why are you hiding here?"

Zelik said a few words to Jessica, who shook his head repeatedly, and then answered him in the affirmative. Finally, Zelik turned his head hesitantly and looked at Guo Kang.

"The captain said that when he was in Bohemia, he served in the queen's palace. According to his experience, in this kind of situation, it is best to hide as far away as possible." He said: "Ladies are not ordinary.

It's much more difficult to deal with than a cannon."

"Can a noble lady in Bohemia be so tolerant?" Guo Kang whispered.

"They want to use projectiles with the largest caliber as possible, so that they can cause greater damage when bombarding opposing ships at close range. The density of stone projectiles is much lower than that of iron projectiles, so less gunpowder is needed to destroy large projectiles.

Throw it out. Moreover, this way the cannon can be made lighter and their boats can also carry it." Guo Kang explained.

"I am very cautious in this regard. I have been improving the cannon for several years, and I have never had any accidents. They all use the cannon as my nickname. Don't worry, they are all bronze cannons specially cast for experiments. They are very safe.

"

"What about you?" Theodora asked: "If I had known that you would be like this every time and take risks with new guns, I shouldn't have let you come."

"Guo Kang?" Theodora's voice came from the other side of the car: "Are you ready?"

"I think these people are too conservative. Do we have to wait for the enemies to change their uniforms and get beaten a few times before changing?" Zhu Wenkui questioned: "You should first try to build big ships, use cannons, and test new weapons."

Let’s fight.”

"There is no way. Most of the navy is very conservative, much more conservative than our army. Moreover, it is still the private territory of the Greeks. Shi Ke has to listen to them on many things now." Guo Kangzhi shook his head: "You know what? Behind the boat

The pole on which the icon is hung blocks the muzzle of the cannon. I suggested that they dismantle it and install an extra cannon. They thought it was too unlucky, so they refused to do so."

Guo Kang quickly answered and drove everyone out one by one. The mercenaries hurriedly grabbed equipment such as mops and sticks from the ground and ran to the artillery position, while others went to drag the shell boxes next to them. Li Xuanying and Jie

Shika also quickly adjusted his clothes, pretended to be fine, and walked out in a big way.

"Okay, okay! We are looking for something!"

"Of course I should be here." Guo Kang said matter-of-factly: "This is the cannon I requested to improve. If I'm not around, who of them would dare to operate it with confidence?"

"It's okay, I'm from Rome." She replied: "You can wait until I can communicate with the fleet about the situation over there. It should be more convenient."

"Do these have different functions?" she asked, looking at the ammunition box next to her.

Guo Kang was speechless for a moment, wondering why she was so concerned about this. Theodora didn't explain to him why she was so concerned about it, and walked over to the cannon.

"Hey, little girl Frank." Theodora smiled proudly.

"..."

Theodora's movements paused.

"They said that the icon was hired from the cathedral. In fact, it was painted by Lama Wang randomly. I don't think the quality is very good." He sighed: "The captain said, he understands my feelings, but

Sailors are very superstitious. Otherwise, he would not be able to command. So in the end he had to give up."

"The stone bullets are for the navy. Shi Ke said that they like stone bullets there. It is said that they are more destructive to wooden ships." Seeing that she finally got down to business, Guo Kang quickly explained: "The other ones,

It's for siege guns. We think iron bullets are more effective at destroying city walls."

"Ah?" Guo Kang didn't realize what she meant.

"But, princess, you are not actually a Greek," Zhu Wenkui asked.

"Then I'll give it a try next time. Let's see what's going on." Theodora thought for a while and said.

"Hey, it's all the same." Zelik frowned, smiled wryly and waved his hand: "Let me tell you, don't even mention those pretentious women of the big aristocracy, even the ladies of the small aristocracy are like this. These women

ah……"

He pointed to the side. There was a box of stone bullets and several boxes of iron pellets of different sizes on the ground. The soldiers moved the ammunition boxes to other places and went to do other things.

"Why do they have to use stone bullets?" Theodora asked.

"You are a good boss. The soldiers and junior officers will like you very much." Theodora nodded and said.

"The Bohemian dialect is not difficult to understand, and Captain Jessica's voice is too loud." Theodora leaned close to his ear again and whispered: "Also, Miss Jeanne started to come to you again.

Watched it."

He pointed to a high tower nearby: "You can see the artillery position over there and overlook the target. We usually observe the flight of the artillery shells there. It's the best viewing position."

Theodora didn't know much about this. After hearing this and thinking about it, she asked Zhu Wenkui who came over: "I think iron bullets and heavy artillery can hit farther and more accurately. Why is it different from their ideas?"

"They don't need to fight very far, anyway, it's basically useless to fight far away." Guo Kang said: "If one day the ship is built big enough and thick enough, it will not be enough to use stone bullets like now; or it can carry more

Advanced cannons can shoot more accurately. At that time, they might want to change to iron bullets."

"Anyway, there are wooden boats on the opposite side. If you hit them, they will be broken. Since the stone bullets are easy to break, they may have multiple secondary damage effects."

"Then let's demonstrate it first." Seeing this, Guo Kang took the initiative and said, "You and the Crown Prince should stand far away and go to that stage."

"Of course, there are other projectiles, such as lead bullets. But generally speaking, these two are the most used. I hope to switch to iron bullets in the future, and I am still trying my best."

"There are more things here." Guo Kang covered it up for them: "Look, there are several kinds of cannonballs."

Guo Kang turned around and saw Jeanne angrily slapping the wild boar and turning away. Zhu Wenkui next to him looked in both directions, at a loss. After being stunned for a moment, he shook his sleeves in frustration and walked towards the cannon.

.

Theodora was still a little dissatisfied, but Guo Kang excused her by claiming that he had the inner strength not to be afraid of accidents.

After those people left, he ordered Jessica and others to move away the stone bullets and cannons and push the chariot over.

That’s it for today’s five chapters.

The monthly tickets and the leader's... are a bit too much. I suddenly realized that tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, so I may have to make up for it after the New Year.

Anyway, I'll try my best to hurry up. Thank you very much for your support.
