Chapter 617 Live Demonstration(1/2)

 "Is it important?"

"what is that?"

When he heard that there was an errand to be handed over, Liu Yu immediately organized his thoughts and listened carefully.

Wang Mi coughed twice and made enough gestures.

In a blink of an eye, he took out his big treasure from his sleeve.

"Slave, take a look at this!"

He clearly knows what he is making, but he just wants to keep it a secret and refuses to tell the truth.

There is a purpose in doing this.

The purpose is to increase Liu Yu's interest and realize that the treasure shown to them today is an artifact that can change the situation of the North-South War!

We must let them plant this idea into their hearts and form a concept!

However, if you look at the current situation, you will know that they have not yet realized how powerful the little thing in front of them is.

"Zhiyuan, what is this?"

"Is it also a weapon?" With his innate sensitivity, Tan Ping could tell at a glance that this strange-looking thing had something to do with marching and fighting.

Wang Mi was overjoyed and said with a smile: "That's right. This is a new weapon called a pistol!"

"pistol?"

The two brothers looked at each other, confused at the same time.

The style of this pistol is so small that it seems that it can really be played in the palm of your hand. Liu Yu took the pistol in his hand and looked at it carefully.

The slightly bulging part at the back of the straight tube looked like a fat man's bulging belly. He soon discovered that the bulging part could actually be opened.

He opened the fire door and saw that there was still a little powder left in the medicine room. He opened his nose, sniffed carefully, and murmured: "Is this sulfur?"

"It is indeed sulfur, but there is also saltpeter."

Gunpowder will be promoted in the future, and there is no need to hide it from them. As long as they are interested, Wang Mi can even teach them the method of making gunpowder.

"I wanted to start this baby when I was in Xiangyang, but we were at war at that time and conditions didn't allow it, so I put it on hold."

"Now that I have finally returned to Jiankang, I have quickly taken care of this matter. I asked the masters of the workshop to help me make this gun."

"This is a kind of firearm. You two brothers believe me. Once this weapon can be equipped in a certain number in the Beifu soldiers, and coupled with the double stirrups of the cavalry, you will definitely be invincible and unmatched on the battlefield!"

Speaking of excitement, Wang Mi suddenly stood up and walked around the room.

Although the two Jingguchi brothers do not have a clear understanding of what firearms are, they can roughly guess that since they are called firearms, they must be related to fire.

Sulfur is flammable when exposed to fire. It seems that the method of using this pistol is to use fire to ignite the sulfur.

Liu Yu laid out his initial thoughts. Seeing that what he said was so accurate, Wang Mi couldn't help but nodded excitedly.

"exactly!"

"What the slave said is pretty much the method to use, but there is one thing you haven't considered."

"What do you think this pistol is used to use to hit the enemy?"

This question stumped both brothers. They had never seen how a pistol was operated, so how could they guess it.

During their battles, they only knew that the tip of a knife could hurt, and arrows could pierce the enemy's chest with their arrowheads.

But this pistol...

Forgive them for their short-sightedness. There is no sharp point either in front or behind, so how can they attack the enemy?

This is indeed a problem.

In the eyes of ancient people, to attack the enemy, you must rely on sharp and sharp weapons. Those blunt objects have really poor lethality and cannot be put on the battlefield at all.

Not to mention the pistol in front of me, it is smooth everywhere. Can such a thing really attack the enemy?

It's amazing to think about how he defeated Di Qin.

"Zhiyuan, what is this iron pipe used for?" At the critical moment, Lao Tan's intuition was sharper.

He soon discovered that if the medicine room contained flammable sulfur and other substances, how could the sulfur be used to cause a blow to the enemy?

After thinking about it, Tan Pingzhi turned his attention to the slender iron pipe at the front of the pistol.

No matter what kind of weapon it is, there will never be any extra parts. This iron pipe must be useful!

As he spoke, Tan Pingzhi pointed the muzzle of the gun at himself, squinted one eye and looked into the barrel of the gun.

"According to this!"

"Danger!"

"Put the gun down!"

Wang Mi looked back and was so frightened that his heart almost dropped. Fortunately, the current pistol was not a trigger-fired pistol. Otherwise, maybe they would only be collecting corpses for Lao Tan!

Lao Tan panicked, and the pistol fell on the table. Wang Mi quickly picked it up. It's okay, it's okay.

Thanks to his wisdom, he had already cleaned up the gunpowder before taking out the samples.

"You don't know that this pistol cannot be played around like this. It can easily cause danger. Sulfur and saltpeter are mixed together and can be made into gunpowder after several processes."

"This gunpowder is an extremely powerful thing. When it encounters a little spark, it can explode. The explosion looks similar to a fire, but the attack power is definitely not of the same level."

"Our pistol relies on the explosion of gunpowder to kill the enemy!"

Wait a moment!

Is there anything left to fight out?

Don't you rely on gunpowder explosions to attack the enemy?

Liu Yu looked troubled, feeling that under Wang Mi's series of explanations, the gadget in front of him was becoming more and more complicated.

And before their eyes, something obviously more complicated appeared again.

Wang Mi opened the small cloth bag, and the smooth and shiny lead spilled onto the table.

The lead was smooth and rolled very fast. Wang Mi only dared to pour out a few, and he had to raise his hands to collect them to prevent the lead from jumping to the ground one by one.

Seeing these lead pieces, Liu Yu had an epiphany.

"Zhiyuan, are you saying that using a pistol is the same as shooting marbles?"

"correct!"

"Very close!"

Liu Yu is right. Although the slingshot is crude and cannot attack the enemy on the battlefield, its usage and principle of action are indeed somewhat similar to that of a pistol.

Most of them rely on recoil to launch bullets and attack the enemy.

However, the driving force of gunpowder is much greater than that of ordinary manpower. If a slingshot can shoot a distance of ten steps, the low-level pistol developed by Wang Mi can also shoot a distance of at least a hundred steps. This is the gap!

The key is that pistols also have a huge advantage that is unmatched by other weapons!

"I think no matter how much you talk, it's not as satisfying as actually taking a shot!"

"Walk!"

"Let's find a place out of the way and have a shot!"

As the saying goes, seeing is worse than hearing. I just dryly said here how Liu Yu and the others could believe in the power of the pistol.

What's more important is that people in this era don't even have a clear understanding of what a pistol is. If you want them to easily recognize the performance of a pistol, aren't you lying to a three-year-old child?

After all, Prince Langya’s Mansion still couldn’t escape this shot!

Wang Mi led two fierce generals around the palace in high spirits, and they were definitely not allowed to go near Wang Shao's residence.

There are houses everywhere, and there are servants and maids working around. It would be bad if someone was hurt or the house was set on fire.

The Langya Wang family has a great business, so Wang Mi is not worried about spoiling things, but the rest of the Wang family will not let him off lightly.

In order not to attract anyone’s attention, you still need to find a suitable place.

Hard work pays off, there are quite a few places like this in the palace. A picture immediately popped up in Wang Mi's mind, waterside pavilions!

That place is not too far from here, and the surrounding area is relatively empty, with not many maids and servants passing by. It is an excellent place!

Without further ado, Wang Mi took his two brothers and ran towards the waterside pavilion. However, although he walked in a hurry, he still did not escape anyone's eyes.

I saw that man sneaking around, wearing a goose-yellow shirt and skirt. His steps were gentle, but he never fell behind.

It seems careless, but in fact he follows closely.

When the brothers arrived at the waterside pavilion, they looked back and saw Shen Suanzi's proud smiling face right in front of them.

"What do you want to do again?"

"You didn't know to tell me in advance, but you want to leave me?"

This woman is trying to beat her up!

Shooting here!
