"Even if it's Qian Fan..." Li Chongrun originally wanted to talk nonsense, but his mind stopped Kuangbiao's words in time.
"Is it possible that people who wear melon-skin hats will be interested in things like printing money? Wang Rong's Jewish ideas are very dangerous. What if a Datang version of the mustache is created?" Li Chongrun complained fiercely in his heart.
Let’s take a look at Wang Rong’s pursuit.
"Let's change our dream. It's not enough for us to talk about this matter now. It only needs the nod from the grandma above. Making money privately is a sin of the Yi clan."
"Tch~" Wang Rong gave him a big roll of his eyes, turned away and ignored the prince, and continued to instruct the craftsmen to hoist the bronze cannon.
"What door is this?"
"The eighth door is also the last door."
Wang Rong spoke to him without looking back, carefully placing the bronze cannon in place, shaking it left and right, making sure it was firmly fixed, and then plugged in the limiting wooden wedge, which was considered to be the completion of the last cannon.
Cannon assembly work.
Seeing several coppersmith masters pushing the Tang Dynasty version of the crane away, Wang Rong asked Li Chongrun: "You originally named this thing a Tiger Crouching Cannon, but it was carved like this. It sounds like a tiger."
Regardless of the relationship, it doesn’t make sense to call me this name again. Do you want to change your name?”
"Is the name important?"
"During a war, is it possible that you would shout in front of the enemy: Brothers, drag that thing out of me? How about making the enemy think you are about to pee or something?"
"Hey, come to think of it, after all the years we have been brothers, I have never been to the latrine with you."
"Are you sick? You need someone to accompany you for such a thing?" Wang Rong rolled his eyes a lot today, as if he was in a bad mood. "If you don't name it, I will name it Long Yin Pao."
"This name sounds a bit like a curse in Yangzhou dialect."
"Then come up with something nice!"
"What if I ask you to call it Italian Cannon?"
In the end, amid all the eye-rolls and sounds of disgust, the first killer weapon invented by Li Chongrun was given a conventional name: Kanglong Cannon.
Kang Long comes from the "Book of Changes·Qian": Shangjiu, Kang Long has regrets. It means that people in high positions should guard against arrogance, otherwise they will fail and regret.
Basically, it has the same meaning as what was written everywhere in military camps in later generations: Give up your illusions and prepare for war.
Choosing a name that seemed very cultured finally made Wang Rong's eyes roll less, and avoided Wang Rong's tendency to move closer to Hinata.
"Now there is bad news and good news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
"Let me tell you the good news first." Li Chongrun inspected the eight bronze cannons lined up in a row, feeling vaguely that his waist seemed to be much stiffer.
"Let's break the bad news first!" Wang Rong was still more inclined to pour cold water on Li Chongrun: "The iron bullets from the Lu family were sent over. They were not up to standard. They were either too big or too small. I reluctantly picked out ten of them.
, I guess it won’t be useful for a while. If you really want to use this thing to fight in the next two days, I’m afraid you’ll still have to use stones.”
"The good news is that there are a lot of rocks." Li Chongrun was speechless. When did Wang Rong learn Deyun Club's classic jokes. "Right?"
"My friend, congratulations to Brother Run for learning how to answer quickly! It's finally a bit of an unexpected surprise." Wang Rong took out a black stone from his arms and showed it to Li Chongrun.
"There are many such graphite essences doped in the charcoal before. Although this kind of thing is lighter than stones, there is one benefit that this thing is particularly easy to process!"
Wang Rong's change of drama is like the dirty robe sleeves, one after another, and the gadgets carved by this kind of blackstone head came out. They are all children like puppies, kittens, little rabbits.
"This thing was particularly easy to break off. Later, it was still the idea given by the master in the jewelry shop.
Wang Rong touched a carved extremely smooth black gun from a white wooden box at the feet, and the coal essence of the gemstone luster was vaguely dusted.
, I have measured it, very qualified. "
Li Chongrun took over in his hand, and the ball was not large, and the weight was not particularly heavy. "It's too light, I'm afraid it will affect the power."
"Otherwise, let's try it? Recently, the charcoal has been used very much, so we have accumulated a bunch of this gadget. Picking some beautiful ones and sending to the jewelry master side. As a result, the master said at most it was a seal.
Can't make jewelry. If you can use it, you can solve a lot of trouble. "
Wang Rong has always been curious about how the expensive toy power that can make Li Chongrun is so excited, but he has never had a chance before. This time, he finally had time to be free. There was another very reasonable reason. I wanted to follow the cannon.
Li Chongrun also wanted to see if the cannon shells could be used. Just these guns also needed to test the guns. I simply gathered the artillery team and prepared to find a ground to experiment.
His Royal Highness is approaching, and the layout of Runzhou has also stepped up, so several ships are between the water between Runzhou and Yangzhou every day.
The cargo ship pretending to be a wooden material was pretended to be the eyeliner of the fishing boat hidden in the river outside the workshop with eight artillery.
Tian Gong did not make beauty, and everyone managed to drag heavy artillery cars through the bumpy mountain road to reach the previous shooting range.
"Wang Ye, do you want to try?"
Because it is preparing to test the gun, this time it is all the launching medicine packs of the installation.
Because I did some improvement after I went back last time, the pills are now carefully wrapped into cylindrical -shaped by the white silk full of tung oil, which can be stuffed into the cannon.
And under the cover of Tong oil, the medicine bag can also have some waterproof, high temperature and anti -collision effects. You don't need to be as careful as before.
"Try it. Just take a look at the pills.
"Test guns, one shot, ordinary stone bullet!"
According to the previous shooting experience, the dragon whisker and the dragon tail of the cannon tail can just be used as Wangshan, that is, the quasi -star and Zhaomen.
Li Chongrun experimented several times and found that as long as he was aimed right, there would be no big deviation in both miles.
Even at the four miles distance of the limit range, you can hit a big goal of a boat.
The quality of the eight -door cannon is very good. No abnormalities were found in a round of testing.
But after all, it is hand -processed, and there are some large or small errors. It is either to the left or to the right, but it is a minor problem that can be solved by aiming.
"Wow, can you fight so far?"
Wang Rong, who covered his ears, was almost shocked. Even if it was the military's strongest siege weapon, the Eight Crossbow, the range was only 700 to 1,000 steps.
Looking at Kanglong Cannon and the Eight Crossbow, it is difficult for Wang Rong to understand how this stack is so far away.
"All the power of chemistry!"
While taking the gun team to hook out the residual pills in the cannon's bore with guns, brushed the inner bores with a bristles made of bristles, and finally used a wet hemp cannon to brush the cannon pipes that might remain in the gun tube.
Mars was extinguished, and Li Chongrun's mouth briefly explained the working principle of this artillery.
"How do you know these things?"
"If you bombed this thing a few times, you will also start thinking about this stuff. You know, we like to think about it from an early age."
Some black faces show two neat white teeth on the face.
"Cut, it is true like thinking about it from an early age."
"Experiment that blackstone!"
"Blackstone, install medicine, fill."
The rotating cannon used a bamboo with a bamboo, stabbed in from the pass of the fire, pierced the oil cloth outside the medicine bag, and poured some gunpowder from the medicine gourd in the port.
The gunner raised the ignition stick and waited nervously, waiting for the gun to start the artillery.
"Aiming at the big tree outside 300 steps."
"emission!"
Before the roar fell, the big tree outside the three hundred steps seemed to be kicked by the giant, making some miserable tears, and slowly fell down the direction of the fire.
"How is it, how? Can you use it?" Wang Rong covered his ears and shouted with a big mouth.
"I*, this cannonball ... It's too cruel."
Don't walk over, just glanced at more than a hundred meters away, Li Chongrun felt that this cannonball should be very successful.
