Iron Dynasty

Chapter 271 Imitation

A faint cyan smoke wafted in the firearms camp, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air.

The faces of the civil servants were a little pale, and their bodies were still a little weak at this time. Although the generals were much stronger than the civil servants, their hearts were also trembling.

They had never seen such a terrifying weapon, not to mention that the shell penetrated three trees, even this thunderous sound was enough to cause confusion among the cavalry.

Luo Quan only learned from Luo Xin's mouth that the power of the artillery was very powerful, but he didn't know how big it was. Now he finally realized how powerful the artillery was.

Your Majesty, artillery is so powerful that it is a weapon to kill the enemy. These hundred are not enough. The minister thought that he should continue to buy artillery from King Qi to deter Xiao Xiao. Luo Quan said with a fist.

Fiji recovered from the shock of the artillery, and also bowed and said: Your Majesty, General Luo is right, so the more magic weapons, the better.

Having seen the power of artillery with his own eyes, Xiao Wenxuan has long been concerned about it. This is a rare opportunity to open up the military level of other lords, and he will naturally not miss it.

The two Aiqings are right. After returning, I will order King Qi to continue to provide artillery to Chang'an. Xiao Wenxuan smiled comfortably.

The princes who came to watch had different expressions after seeing the power of the artillery.

Thinking that King Qi's army is now equipped with a large number of artillery pieces, a haze suddenly appeared in their hearts, such a powerful King Qi, if they ascend the throne in the future, how should they deal with it?

Then they looked at the embarrassed prince, and their hearts were suddenly relieved. Now the prince should be most worried.

The sound of Rumble... continued in the firearms battalion for a while. Xiao Wenxuan, who had deeply felt the power of the artillery, was finally satisfied. At this time, he frowned at the shells in the ammunition box. All sixteen shells were fired.

He clearly remembered that the artillery shells also needed silver, and the price of the shells was not cheap. One shell was twenty taels of silver, and the sixteen rounds were more than three hundred taels of silver.

Although the number of guns purchased this time is 8,000 taels, each gun is equipped with 300 shells, and this is 6,000 taels, which is almost the same price as the gun, and this does not include gunpowder.

Thinking that the artillery would cost a huge amount of silver taels, and after seeing that the artillery was very similar to the torch, he suddenly had the idea of ​​imitating the artillery.

Xiao Ming said that the artillery technology was so amazing, but he wanted to see if it was really the case?

If it can't be faked, it's fine, it means that it is really difficult to forge artillery, and the money is worth it, but if it is easily faked, he will beat and beat Xiao Ming.

Because he was able to imitate it, it means that this artillery is not a secret. Xiao Ming is deceiving the king and deliberately exaggerating.

After all, in the court at the time, he knew that Xiao Ming was not willing to hand over the artillery technology, and he was worried that the technology would be stolen, so he kept the artillery technology in Qingzhou.

But he still wanted to monopolize artillery technology in his heart.

The civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty have seen the power of artillery, and Xiao Wenxuan's purpose has also been achieved. After learning this news, I am afraid that the different surnamed vassal kings will definitely be restless.

Back in the palace, Xiao Wenxuan immediately asked Feng Deshui to secretly ask Fang Chengyou, the general supervisor responsible for the manufacture of the firearm from the Equipment Division to call.

You have seen this cannon, right? Xiao Wenxuan asked Fang Chengyou.

In recent years, only Chang'an's equipment department has been able to produce torches, and all this is due to Fang Chengyou's grandfather, who has retained the technology of torch production from generation to generation.

Because Fang Chengyou's father was a prisoner, and he inherited his father's position, it can be said that he inherited his father's position.

Your Majesty, I have seen it. It is indeed very powerful, several times more powerful than a fire torch. Fang Chengyou felt sour in his heart.

Their Fang family has always been favored because of the manufacture of torches. Now that the artillery came out, no one cared about his torches, so he was annoyed for a while.

Moreover, when the artillery had not yet entered Chang'an, he often depreciated the artillery on various occasions. Now that he has truly seen it, he is jealous again.

Well, in that case, can the Equipment Division imitate the artillery? Xiao Wenxuan said lightly.

Fang Chengyou was shocked when he heard the words, and this was when he regained the face of the Fang family, so he said: Your Majesty, this torch is similar to a cannon. Rough, when the time comes to increase the amount of gunpowder, maybe it can be compared with artillery.

Really? Xiao Wenxuan showed an interested look, and he said: In that case, you should go back now and let the Equipment Division imitate the artillery. I will ask the Firearms Battalion to send you an artillery. You must study it carefully.

Yes, Your Majesty. Fang Chengyou was overjoyed.

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Wenxuan asked Fang Chengyou to retire.

After leaving the palace, Fang Chengyou walked towards the Equipment Division, when a carriage suddenly stopped beside him.

Fang Zuojian, the prince is invited! An old face appeared in the carriage. This person was the prince of the East Palace, Zhan Shi Zhao Hongyang.

The residence of the prince of the Great Yu Kingdom is called the East Palace. In order to be enthroned as the Emperor East Palace in the future, it has its own set of official systems, which is basically equivalent to a small court.

This Zhao Hongyang is the prince of the East Palace, Zhan Shi, who is in charge of the affairs of the East Palace and belongs to the internal servant.

Fang Chengyou looked around vigilantly at this time, and when he saw that there was no one around, he got on the carriage.

The carriage made several laps on the streets of Chang'an, and finally stopped in front of a famous red-sleeved building in Chang'an City.

Please, the prince and the prince are waiting upstairs to serve as prisoners. Zhao Hongyang said with a smile.

It was not the first time for Fang Chengyou to come here.

After a while, the door of the room opened, Fang Chengyou saw a pile of white bodies inside, and at the same time, there was a red-faced gasping sound.

Fang Chengyou greets His Royal Highness, His Highness, Chitose Chitose, Chitose!

On the bed, the prince said lightly while playing with the three naked women, No gift.

I have seen His Royal Highness. Fang Chengyou got up, and then bowed to Zhao Yuanliang, who was sitting at the table and drinking tea.

At this time, Zhao Yuanliang seemed to be used to seeing the prince and Qinglou women hanging out, and he said directly: Fang Zuojian, please take a seat. The artisans in Zhaodi have made artillery a few days ago. I would like to thank Fang Zuojiao, if it weren't for you. The detailed production process is provided, and the craftsmen can’t make a torch even if they want to break their heads.”

His Royal Highness is very polite. It is also an honor for a lower official to do a little bit for King Zhao. Fang Chengyou glanced at the spring light on the bed, and his mouth was dry for a while.
