Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 171 The Power of Firebolts!Two more!

Because the trebuchet needs to maintain a stable and powerful throwing force, the quality must be good.

Whether it is weapons, crossbows, or metal materials on trebuchets.

What Wu Zhi adopted was a new steelmaking method, in which a material called graphite was fused and infiltrated into molten iron.

Use high temperature for forging and fusion, in which the heat must be well controlled, infiltration can only be carried out when the color is not so red, and when the temperature reaches more than 1000 degrees, it is also the time for dissolution forging.

These technologies and the ratio of materials must be strictly controlled.

Without precise data, what can be built can only be a piece of scrap iron, which does not have cohesive force and is easy to break.

But through Wu Zhi's method, the iron produced is extremely solid, and this iron can be used to make weapons.

It was this new steel that cut off the weapons before the Song Dynasty just now.

Some materials are relatively rare in the Great Song Dynasty, but the Jurchen tribe has a lot, but they can't play a role, so they were exchanged for Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi made firecrackers and gunpowder, and these Jurchen tribes also provided a lot of materials.

They don't have the technology in this area, but Wu Zhi does. As long as Wu Zhi makes it, hehe, what kind of trebuchets and continuous crossbows are pediatrics in front of the firecrackers.

Because Wu Zhi's production is not clumsy, it takes several minutes for the last bullet to be fired.

It is powerful and quick to reload, firing powerful firecrackers.

The Song Dynasty already had firearms and a group of craftsmen, which is why Wu Zhi dared to make them.

Without the foundation of artisans, it is very difficult for him to produce in large quantities without the cooperation of talents.

At best, make one for yourself.

The usefulness of the craftsmen of the Song Dynasty is reflected at this time.

Wu Zhi summoned them to make new firecrackers.

Half a month later, eighty new firecrackers had been produced.

It looked similar to the long gun used to shoot birds, and the gunpowder had already been prepared.

Loads ammo fast.

Wu Zhi first pointed a firearm of Da Song at a distance and made a bang, and the funny thing was that he hit it crookedly.

You know, Wu Zhi is at close range, and he holds it very steadily, there is no possibility of it being crooked.

There is only one reason, and that is that the bullets inside are not good, and the eruption is basically in a scattered state.

Even so, the firearm craftsmen next to it felt that the power was amazing.

At this time, Wu Zhi took the one he made himself, and after aiming, a wooden target in front of him was blown off the head on the spot.

Not only that, but all the wooden targets in the rear were pierced.

After the fight, Wu Zhi applied the elixir again, very quickly, bang bang bang, only to hear Wu Zhi shoot continuously.

Although the people next to it had seen the power during the experiment during the production, they still couldn't calm down at the moment.

This power and efficiency, things before the Song Dynasty are indeed not at the same level as they are now.

After a series of experiments.

Wu Zhi knew the result.

The firearms of the Song Dynasty have a range of 80 meters, an effective range of about 30 meters, and an optimal range of about 15 meters with armor-piercing capabilities.

The range produced by Wu Zhi can reach 160 meters, the effective range is 100 meters, and the armor-piercing ability can reach 32 meters.

And the loading of ammunition is not so cumbersome, it is very fast.

This is a red bird gun, half a meter long, and feels good in the hand.

There will be smoke from the head of the firecracker with a bang, and there will be a certain amount of recoil.But the accuracy is good.

All craftsmen applauded.

And then continue to build.

In one month, Wu Zhi produced [-] swords and [-] trebuchets each.

There are eight thousand crossbows.

18 bows and arrows.

Ninety firecrackers.

Two thousand pieces of ammunition.

But soon, there was no money!
Wu Zhi was very satisfied to see the full accumulation of weapons, but the money was spent a little too quickly.

"War is indeed a costly thing. These bows and arrows are gone when they are shot, unless they are picked up after winning the war. The cost is very high!"

But Wu Zhi wasn't worried either. He looked at the catapults, continual crossbows, and those firecrackers that had been eliminated and replaced, and Wu Zhi had an idea.

Wu Zhi has been busy for a while.

At this moment Song Huizong took Zhao Fujin and Tong Guan over to have a look.

Want to know the results of Wu Zhi's recent research.

When they saw that the Department of Commerce had piled up all new things, Song Huizong had a look of disbelief.

Especially after comparing it with the weapons of the Song Dynasty.

Especially the firecracker.

The power is too strong!
"Is this all made by Taiwei Wu?" Song Huizong's expression changed again and again at this moment.

Although Song Huizong was a fool, he knew the value of these things.

This undoubtedly enhanced the national strength of their Song Dynasty!

And the increase in combat power is not a little bit.

Can't help but see Wu Zhi's eyes full of admiration.

This is Song Dynasty's number one genius!

Song Huizong: "How many of these things do you have?"

Wu Zhi told Song Huizong the number.

Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty said: "We produce so much in a month. If it takes a while, then our national strength will increase...whether, if we use these weapons to go back to the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun in the Song Dynasty, Wu Taiwei, you How likely do you think it is?"

"Hehe, after a while, when weapons come out in large quantities, how difficult is it to take back the Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures?"

Wu Zhi laughed.

"Okay, that's great!" Song Huizong was overjoyed when he heard this. Although he was a foolish emperor, all the emperors of the Song Dynasty tried their best to take back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun.

Originally this was just a thought, but seeing so many weapons and hearing what Wu Zhi said, even Song Huizong, a faint emperor, was full of confidence.

"I hope that one day, I can rely on these things to fight back to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures!"

Song Huizong thought of taking back the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun in the Song Dynasty under his control, and did what the previous emperors could not do.

He was extremely excited.

Although the weapon was made by Wu Zhi, it was conquered during his tenure after all.

Of course, not yet, Song Huizong came to his senses and sighed.

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, although these weapons are good, they cost money. I am going to sell a batch of weapons to the Jurchens. At present, the Liao Kingdom is still strong. Only by using the Jurchens to consume their strength can we fight back to Yan. Cloud sixteen states!"

The Liao Kingdom controlled the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun and was the great enemy of the Song Dynasty.

Only by getting rid of them first can we proceed with the next plan.

After Song Huizong heard about it, he said, "It's okay, the weapons of Song Dynasty are backward compared with yours. You can sell them all and make new weapons. Not only that, but I also asked the Ministry of Households to give you a million taels of silver as manufacturing costs! "

Hearing this, Wu Zhi was overjoyed.

It would be better if Song Huizong gave money.

Although Song Huizong was a foolish emperor, he also wanted to take back the Sixteen States of Yanyun, but the Liao Kingdom was too strong, and they did not dare to do it rashly.

The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are very important. After they were lost before, the border of Liao Kingdom spread to the Song Dynasty.

Da Song felt a great sense of threat.

Several generations of emperors in the Song Dynasty were helpless.

Once Song Taizong also wanted to go to Liao to take back the territory that belonged to them, but before he succeeded, Song Taizong fled back in despair.

There was another time Song Zhenzong went there, but he killed him directly at your door, and failed again!
But now Song Huizong still has a little thought, until the Southern Song Dynasty, even this thought was completely ruined.

Because Liao is too strong.

Therefore, even though Wu Zhi knew that the Jurchen tribe finally defeated the Northern Song Dynasty, if they did not deal with the Liao Kingdom first, the threat would only be greater.

The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were finally taken back by Chang Yuchun in the Ming Dynasty.

Seeing Song Huizong's excited appearance, Wu Zhi knew that both the Liao Kingdom and the Jurchen tribe were threats to their Great Song Dynasty.

Just find a chance to kill them together.

As time passed, the Jurchen tribe has not yet launched a large-scale war against the Liao Kingdom, but only fought in some places in the Liao Kingdom.

However, the use of Da Song's weapons these few times has achieved good results.

So Wanyan Zongjun came again.
