Chapter 338 Hey, General Zhengbei, Are You Busy Testing Cannons?
Latest website:
The Chinese military tent.
Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"Your Majesty, get ready!"
Xue Lu hurriedly entered and spoke with excitement.
When Zhu Di heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes.
"Okay, let's get started!"
In fact, it's not a big deal. Today he is going to test the artillery in front of the soldiers of the three armies!
The artillery sent by the Royal Manufacturing Bureau this time has a completely different shape from the previous general cannons.
The artillery in front of you has a longer barrel and thicker wall than the general cannon, and it gradually thickens from the muzzle to the tail. There are cylindrical lugs on both sides of the center of the gun body... He is mighty, domineering, and terrifying!
Even the most powerful general's artillery in the past looked as weak and pitiful as a child in front of this artillery!
According to the accompanying craftsmen of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau, this thing is a barbarian-destroying cannon. It is an epoch-making destructive artillery that the Royal Manufacturing Bureau has made every effort based on the drawings provided by His Highness the King of Han!
And according to what these craftsmen meant, there are many ways to destroy the barbarian cannon, and it is even equipped with two professional gunners responsible for loading and firing.
The first time Zhu Di saw the Yi-Destroying Cannon, he immediately became interested, so he organized the cannon test ceremony.
The test of the cannon was naturally to test whether the power of the barbarian-killing cannon was as exaggerated as the craftsmen of the Manufacturing Bureau said.
Secondly, it is also to unite the morale of the military and boost morale!
The army has made considerable gains so far since its expedition. It not only defeated the planned target of the Oara tribe, but also advanced to the area from Lingou to the Tula River. The armies of all walks of life have captured and plundered countless people and livestock. It can be called an unprecedented victory. !
However, as summer is about to enter, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and many soldiers are complaining.
After all, they had to endure the coming bad weather while fighting bloody battles with the Mongolian barbarians, so it was understandable to complain.
On the march and fighting in a foreign land, life was not easy for the soldiers.
Therefore, in order to boost military morale and morale, Zhu Di specially ordered Xue Lu to organize such a cannon test and viewing ceremony.
"By the way, call the horseman and let him take a good look at whether Ming Dynasty will eat enough to go down to Lingbei!"
Xue Lu nodded. The "groomman" mentioned by the emperor was none other than Jin Youzi.
Zhu Di walked out of the Chinese army tent, took Hu Guang and other civil servants with him, and followed Xue Lu to a temporary high platform.
Surrounded by the brave Forbidden Army, they were holding sharp weapons and looking around. The slightest disturbance would make them feel like they were facing a formidable enemy, and they were extremely vigilant!
Under the high platform were the entire army of Ming Dynasty soldiers, some of whom were the Imperial Guards responsible for guarding the emperor, and some who came back to rest and replenish food and fodder after going out to fight, such as the Shenji Battalion commanded by Liu Sheng.
Without being summoned by His Majesty the Emperor, Liu Sheng climbed onto the high platform without hesitation.
"Your Majesty, the general heard that His Highness the King of Han sent a kind of terrifying cannon this time. Where is it? Why didn't the general see it?"
Zhu Di glanced at him indifferently and replied angrily: "You didn't rush back because you heard the news, did you? How was your expedition? How many tribes were slaughtered? How many people and livestock were plundered?"
The smile on Liu Sheng's face froze and he smiled coquettishly.
"No more, no more, just five tribes. The quartermaster is counting the population and livestock, but I don't have the energy to take care of it!"
When Xue Lu saw this, he immediately helped: "Your Majesty, among all the armies, the Three Thousand Battalion led by Chen Datou is the largest. It has slaughtered no less than ten Mongolian tribes. After all, the Three Thousand Battalions are mainly cavalry. Liu Xiazi's god The machine battalion was able to slaughter five tribes, which is quite impressive!"
In fact, Zhu Di was quite satisfied with this result.
After all, the Shenji Battalion in the past was just a piece of cake. It could not fight independently at all and needed cavalry and infantry cover.
If the second brother hadn't used the bird gun and the tiger squatting cannon, there would have been no chance for the Shenji Battalion to fight independently and go out to have fun.
"Okay, just watch it honestly, let's test the gun right away!"
Zhu Di ordered people to get the telescope and distribute it to all the civil and military ministers.
When Liu Sheng, who had just returned, saw this, his eyes almost fell out of his eyes.
"Hiss... Isn't this telescope priceless? There is only one pair in the world? Why do so many suddenly appear..."
Everyone: "!!!"
Your uncle!
You really don’t want to open any pot!
Can you shut up your stupid mouth?
The corner of Zhu Di's mouth twitched, suppressing the anger in his heart, he raised his telescope and looked into the distance.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Liu Sheng was about to ask again, but Xue Lu gave him a big blow in time.
"Can't you fucking shut up? If you keep beeping, I'll kick you down!"
Xue Lu was also convinced. This blind man Liu really lived up to his name and had no eyesight at all.
His Majesty the Emperor finally managed not to get angry, and temporarily revealed the matter of the telescope, but you just kept adding salt to his wounds!
Why don't you go out and have some fun? Are you getting braver?
After a hard fight, Liu Sheng became honest and did not dare to say anything anymore.
On the high platform, an extremely strange scene appeared.
Emperor Yongle and his civil and military ministers who accompanied the Northern Expedition all held up telescopes and looked into the distance.
"Xue Lu, let's start!"
After receiving the emperor's order, Xue Lu immediately ordered the start.
The flag bearer sounded the flag, and the flag bearer at the distant launch site saw this and hurriedly ordered the gunners to get into position.
There were three barbarian-killing cannons in this test, and the six gunners were ready to go.
As soon as they heard the order, the six gunners immediately started firing, calculating the angle, adjusting the muzzle and then loading the shells...
The flag bearer's signal came and everything was ready.
Zhu Di took a deep breath, and then shouted: "Fire!"
The flagman's order was conveyed, and the gunner immediately fired.
The next moment, a deafening loud noise tore through the sky, making everyone's ears almost ring.
Through the telescope, they clearly saw that with three shocking loud noises, the mound that was the target of the test gun was directly razed to the ground!
Shock, panic, ecstasy!
The power and accuracy of this barbarian-destroying cannon exceeded everyone's knowledge!
A mound of yellow sand several feet high was razed to the ground just after one round of firing from the barbarian-killing cannon!
If this hit the barbarian, I'm afraid the barbarian would evaporate on the spot, leaving only a pool of flesh and blood, right?
This kind of terrifying power is simply beyond their knowledge, it can be called the power of gods and demons!
Hu Guang, Jin Youzi and other civil servants looked at this scene with dull expressions and were speechless for a long time.
Such a terrifying magical weapon is really frightening!
Even the Mongolian cavalry that swept the world back then would probably be beaten to the point of running away with their heads in their hands, right?
However, Xue Lu, Liu Sheng and other generals were inexplicably excited and their bodies were shaking with excitement.
If the Ming Dynasty had such artillery, where could it not hit it?
Not to mention the current Lingbei Fucheng Helin, even the former Mongolian Imperial Capital Helin, they are confident that they can knock him down!
As long as there are enough of these barbarian-destroying cannons, sufficient ammunition, and within range, I will be invincible!
Zhu Di turned his back to the ministers and kept holding the telescope with one hand to relieve his gaffe.
How many years!
He, Zhu Di, is no longer so enthusiastic!
With this barbarian-killing cannon, any Mongolian cavalry or fortress can be shot with just one shot!
If one shot is not enough, then use another shot until you are convinced!
With such terrifying firearms, who can stop the Ming Dynasty from annexing and expanding?
No wonder the second child dares to clamor all day long to fight here and there, wishing to cover all the world and annex the eight wastelands!
With such magical weapons, UU read www.uukkanshu. net Zhu Di said that he wanted to do it too!
At this moment, a burly figure walked onto the high platform.
Xue Lu, Liu Sheng and others noticed the sound and immediately turned their heads to look. The next second they were so shocked that their eyes almost fell off.
"Han...you..."
Damn it!
His Highness the King of Han!
Why is he here?
Zhu Gaoxu put his finger to his lips, signaling everyone to keep quiet.
Everyone had not yet recovered from the terrifying power of the barbarian-destroying cannon. At this moment, when they saw the Han prince who was supposed to be supervising the country in the imperial capital of Jinling, they were frightened to death.
Zhu Gaoxu walked to Zhu Di leisurely and took out a pair of telescopes to look at it.
"Isn't this powerful enough?"
"Well, there's nothing to say!"
"Is this accurate enough?"
"Yeah, very accurate!"
"Isn't this appearance powerful enough?"
"Uh-huh?"
Zhu Di answered the question subconsciously, but suddenly felt something was wrong.
Who dares to stand next to himself, the emperor, and chat with him about nothing?
Could it be that his ears were ringing just now and he was hearing hallucinations?
Zhu Di took off his telescope and turned his head to look. What came into view was the big face of his second son with a mean smile on his face.
"Dick?!"
Damn it, what's going on?
Isn't this the second dick that I have longed for?
Why didn't this bastard come to Northern Xinjiang instead of supervising the country's governance in the imperial capital?
Zhu Di rubbed his eyes in disbelief, raised the telescope and put it down again. The big face was still there.
However, before Zhu Di could come to his senses, when he heard the next sentence, he became furious and completely crazy!
"Hey, General Zhengbei, are you busy testing the cannon?"
"You rebellious bastard, I will peel off your skin!"
