1898: Shocked

With a crisp bang, a faint blue smoke emerged from the muzzle. In the distance, the wooden rack with armor shook, pulled the bolt and fired again. In a flash, the officer who was testing the firing had already finished firing five bullets in the bullet bay.

A moment later, a soldier held the wooden rack and came to Xian Bisong and other generals.

The best armor had been penetrated, and the yellow warhead was deeply embedded in the wooden stake, and a look of horror appeared in Xian Bisong's eyes. The front of the armor looked like a small bullet hole, but when it was penetrated from behind, a large piece of armor was torn apart. If the bullet hit a person, what would happen to this person be almost self-evident.

On the battlefield, it is said that one stab is worse than a stab. The soldiers are afraid that the spear is much more powerful than the big knife. It is because the blade is cut off, which may not necessarily kill you. However, if the spear is stabbed into the body with one shot, the chance of survival is really not high.

The damage caused to the body by hitting the body by the Ming Dynasty style 1 is much more powerful than a spear. At least under the protection of armor, if you want to stab people through with one shot, you must be a fierce general. Ordinary people have such power.

However, now, holding a Ming 1 style, even a woman can easily kill a warrior who has experienced many battles.

"What is the range?" Xian Bigong asked in a low voice.

"In less than fifty steps, there will be absolutely killing and more than a hundred steps, and effective damage." The officer replied: "We have not seized much these days. Except for leaving a part to be sent to Chang'an, the remaining part is used for these tests."

"Try those things too." Xian Bisong pointed to the iron lumps in an iron box behind him. From the outside, they were not conspicuous, like a black iron lump carved with patterns on it, but only when they witnessed the explosion on the wasteland, could they deeply understand its power.

In fact, a grenade would never have such an effect. However, at that moment, the Ming soldiers who knew they could not escape detonated the three grenades hanging on their bodies at that moment, exploded together to create such a spectacular scene.

A grenade was carefully placed in a turret. After fixing it, a long rope was buckled on the small pull ring on the grenade. Some armors of Qi's current ordinary equipment were placed inside and outside the turret.

A group of soldiers holding large shields stood in front of a group of generals. After Xian Bisong nodded, the captain suddenly pulled the rope in his hand.

After a moment of silence, a loud explosion sounded inside the Tulezi. Pairs of armor were thrown into the sky, and then fell to the ground with a twitch. After the smoke dissipated, the Tulezi was beyond recognition.

The soldiers picked up armor, and the armor inside the earthen crane was damaged. If a person wore such armor, he would have returned to the west at this moment. Even the armor outside was seriously deformed.

"General, I am afraid that the soldiers outside Tuleizi will lose their combat effectiveness under such an impact." An experienced general whispered.

All the experts present, so they naturally know the ways here. On the battlefield, if you encounter a heavy armored soldier, you cannot cut in and stab the gun, you will not penetrate it. At this time, the strongman will smash it wildly with heavy weapons. Those opponents wearing heavy armor will not suffer serious damage to the armor outside, but the people inside will not be able to make it, and they will often suffer from internal organs and die.

"Seal all these things and send them to Chang'an immediately." Xian Bisong said with a gloomy face, "We Daqi have finally made gunpowder now. Although we are not as good as the Ming Dynasty, we are not powerless to fight back. If we hand over these things, maybe those masters can figure out something."

Qi State has indeed developed gunpowder now, and the threshold for gunpowder is not very high. After the Qi people obtained a large number of samples, they quickly analyzed the ingredients and started to imitate them themselves. But the problem is that if they want to reach the current development level of Ming State, they don’t know when it will be. Since Qin Feng ordered the development of gunpowder, the Ming people have been developing from the original thing that could only make fireworks and firecrackers to the fact that they can now make yellow gunpowder on a large scale.

The gunpowder developed by the people of Qi is very disturbing and has little power. As the general, Xian Bisong is naturally clear. But even so, the emperor still gave these masters generous rewards, hoping that they can continue to work hard and create better gunpowder, but how easy is this?

Now Xian Bisong saw Mingren's Ming Style 1. Seeing that a small bullet contained such a small pinch of gunpowder, it could burst out with such a large amount of energy. How could he not feel panic from the bottom of his heart?

It is said that weapons are used by humans. No matter how advanced a weapon is, it cannot play its role in the wrong person. The problem is that when the armed gap between the two sides is too large, what can be used to make up for the gap between them?

It’s like a strong man facing a baby. Even if the strong man makes mistakes again and again, how much harm can this baby cause to him?

Taking his generals back to the meeting hall, Xian Bisong silently touched a set of old books on the big case, which he asked the ghost to get from the territory of Ming Dynasty. It was not a secret thing, but a complete set of middle school textbooks in Ming Dynasty and a complete set of university textbooks. Xian Bisong was not very interested in the Chinese language and mathematics inside. The only thing that made him interested were physics and chemistry, which had never been heard of before.

This is a public offering by Ming Dynasty and taught to students. Many of the things inside actually involve the most basic manufacturing and research and development of gunpowder and other things. Even people like Xian Bisong who originally knew nothing about this gained something after carefully studying it, at least they had a rough and vague concept of many things.

But the more this happens, the more scared Xian Bisong became. These things were considered powerful weapons for the country, but the Ming people made them public and taught them to every child who entered school. This means that these things were no longer a secret for the Ming people. The Ming Dynasty forced every child of the right age to attend school. In the past, in Xian Bisong's view, this was a waste of money and money. Now he suddenly reacted.

If it means that there are one million sons in the country who study these things, even if only ten thousand of them read the name after they have achieved some success in this, it means that they have 10,000 extremely skilled masters. By the way, the masters are now called engineers, professors, etc. in the Ming Dynasty, and are serious officials. In Daqi, the masters are only passed down by word of mouth, because many of these masters are illiterate. Once one of them has an accident and does not teach his experience to his disciples, his knowledge will be considered to be a severance.

"General, these weapons must be kept absolutely confidential in this matter. If our soldiers know about this, they are afraid that the fighting will drop to freezing point. Without the fighting spirit, how can we fight this battle?" A general stood up and said to Xian Bisong, who was a little distracted.

Xian Bisong, who came to his senses, shook his head apart and rejected the general's opinion: "My opinion is exactly the opposite. We must let the soldiers know these things, and the sooner they know, the better. What we need to do now is not to conceal it, but how to find ways to help the soldiers overcome their fears, so that they can get used to such things, and only then can they have a fight. If you keep this hidden, the soldiers will suddenly encounter this weapon that they have never seen or understood before and will collapse, just a blink of an eye."

He pondered for a moment and said, "Some of the combat plans originally formulated need to be adjusted. During this period, everyone has been focused on doing this. Don't exaggerate it deliberately, but don't hide it. You should describe it objectively to the soldiers, and then through our practices, our soldiers will be mentally prepared for this. In addition, more training should be given to the war horses to make them adapt to the new combat environment."

"I understand!" The generals took the order in unison.

"Go and do it!" Xian Bisong waved.

Seeing everyone leaving, Xian Bisong sighed long. He was originally a general who was good at defending, but now, he had to change his course and take the initiative to attack the Mingren. Because since the Mingren's artillery appeared, the so-called strong city has become a joke, and he can compete with his opponents with the same weapon.

Under such a situation, in addition to strengthening his existing defensive system, he also had to take the initiative to attack, try to restrain the strength of the Ming army and reduce the pressure on defense. Then he found the right opportunity to attack on a large scale, with one blow to death.

But this is so difficult! Wu Ling, the wild dog, on the opposite side, is not a man of all kinds of battles. It is so difficult to get them to take the bait, so Xian Bisong has no confidence at all.

The war must be launched in advance. Judging from the earlier information, the Ming army on the opposite side did not have this weapon on a large scale, which fully demonstrates that these powerful and domineering weapons were just developed by the Ming people. If they wait for them to change their clothes on a large scale, this battle will be even more difficult to fight.

One month! Fresh pine walked to the door and looked at the bright sunshine outside.

In one month, the soldiers have enough psychological construction to quickly adapt to the new combat environment, and then they have to do it themselves. Now every day later, Mingren will create more guns, artillery, and such terrifying iron lumps.
