When He Jiaan arrived, he saw Bai Huatian standing beside the cannon with a nervous face, his lips were trembling, and he didn't know what he was muttering. When he saw He Jiaan, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"If Mr. He is not here, I really don't know what to do with this gun."

"The old man was joking. With me or without me, the cannon should be fired. It seems that everything is ready, and we are waiting for the old man to get off to a good start."

"Look." Hearing He Jiaan's encouragement, the old man showed a resolute expression on his face and nodded vigorously.Everything is ready, and now the minister sent by the emperor has not arrived. He Jiaan looked behind him, but he didn't see any figure. He wanted to ask Su Can, but he was afraid of being coaxed back. When He Jiaan was a little impatient

Suddenly, at the corner of the road in the distance, a few golden flags suddenly flashed.

When He Jia'an saw that touch of golden yellow, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of a possibility, could it be the emperor himself?

Thinking about it, it’s not impossible. After all, who else can use the government army’s avant-garde protection besides Zhengde? No wonder Su Can just pulled this topic away. He didn’t want to let himself know that the emperor was coming. information.

After a while, the whole team appeared before He Jiaan's eyes. Not only He Jiaan, but even the craftsmen panicked, not knowing what to do, and retreating desperately one by one. Radu could not come back.

When the emperor's team finally stopped, Su Can went up to greet him, and after talking to Zhang Yong beside the sedan chair, Zhang Yong turned around, opened the sedan chair curtain, and Zhengde inside bowed his head slightly, and left come out.

"What about He Jiaan, why didn't you see him?" Zhengde looked around, and was a little surprised that he didn't see He Jiaan.

Without Zhengde's order, how could He Jiaan, a mere sixth-rank chief, come closer, but Zhang Yong took a few steps forward, waved when he saw He Jiaan, and brought him in front of Zhengde.

"He Jia'an, the head of the Firearms Department of the Military Warfare Bureau, has seen His Majesty, long live my emperor." I heard from Yang Qing that the artillery prepared by He Qing this time is very powerful. Is it possible that it can be compared to the Francophone cannon?

"

"Uh..." Zhengde's first sentence made He Jia'an worry, he hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, if we only talk about power, the two are almost the same."

Zhengde couldn't understand the meaning of He Jiaan's words, and frowned slightly. After thinking about it, he decided to experience the power of this new cannon first.The red cloth on the cannon has not been removed. It was originally prepared for others, but it was Zhengde who did not expect to come. These craftsmen did not even dare to breathe. cloth off, then no

He let out a 'huh', and it seemed that the appearance of this new cannon was indeed somewhat beyond his expectation.

"He Qing, come here, can you see if this cannon looks like a tiger squatting?" Zhengde described the appearance of this cannon with a smile.

In order to adjust the shooting range of the artillery, He Jiaan specially designed a bipod in front of the cannon. Hearing what Zhengde said, it really looked like a tiger lying on the ground.

He Jiaan had an idea, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, please give the artillery a name." "This..." Zhengde pondered for a while, and then said excitedly: "Then it will be called Tiger Crouching Pao."

Chapter 750 The power is amazing

Although in order to prevent the bombing, Bai Huatian put seven iron hoops on the gun body again, but when this moment really came, Bai Huatian still felt a little lack of confidence in his heart. The scene of the bombing 20 years ago was constantly in his heart. emerge

, After reconsidering everything, Bai Huatian finally made up his mind, and made a gesture of firing at Zhou Jing who was next to the artillery.Everyone has hid in a safe place, only Zhou Jing stayed by the cannon, making preparations for the final firing. The gunpowder has been stuffed into the cannon, all he has to do is to ignite the cannon with a torch, and then quickly run to no

In the distance, in the big pit that has been prepared, and then...you can only resign yourself to fate.For some reason, the hand that is usually used to holding a sledgehammer is not used to picking up a torch today. The lightness always makes people feel a little uneasy. When Zhou Jingchang saw the signal sent by Bai Huatian Taking a breath, he grasped the torch with all his strength and approached Pao Nian slowly. When he felt a spark light up, he quickly dropped the torch and ran away. He ran to the edge of the big pit in two steps, and then Jumped down, covered his ears with his hands, and waited for the

The moment when the earth shakes and the mountains shake has arrived.

However, after waiting for a while, I didn't even feel it at all. Zhou Jing couldn't help being stunned. Logically speaking, the artillery should have been fired a long time ago. Why didn't I hear it for so long? Failed?

Zhou Jing's heart tightened, he knew what this cannon meant to his master, so if he failed again this time...

The consequences are unimaginable.At this moment, Zhou Jing suddenly heard a loud commotion behind him, the voice was so many and complex that he didn't seem to hear it clearly, so he slowly emerged from the pit, but the scene in front of him startled him , I saw the master Baihua naive

He rushed towards him aggressively, and when he saw his head, he couldn't help yelling: "If you light a cannon, you will be scared like this. Why don't you have any confidence in this point? Get out of the way, and I will come."

After hearing what the master said, Zhou Jing turned his head quickly, only then did he realize what mistake he had made, feeling that he hadn't set the cannon on fire just now, and then he dropped the torch and ran away.

Now Zhou Jing was so ashamed, his face was flushed, and he couldn't control it anymore, he quickly stood up, blocked the master, and said repeatedly: "Master, it's not good to be a disciple just now, don't worry, Nothing like this will happen again.”

"Really?" Bai Huatian gave him a hard look.

"Really, I promise." Zhou Jing nodded, then pointed to the big pit under his feet and said, "Master, you should hide here first."

"No need, I'll just stand here." Old Master Bai's temper also turned up, and he refused to leave once his feet were tied.

"This..." Now Zhou Jing was dumbfounded, with a torch in one hand, whether he was advancing or retreating, he stood awkwardly at the same place, at a loss, the key point was that the old man was away from the cannon. "Hurry up, what are you still doing, Long Live Lord is still watching." After Bai Huatian urged again, Zhou Jing came to the side of the cannon slowly, this time without shaking his hands, until he confirmed the ignition. After the cannon twist, this left,

But he didn't run into the pit like before, but stood beside the master.Time seemed to have passed for a long time. When Zhou Jing closed his eyes and was afraid, he suddenly felt the ground under his feet tremble, and then he heard a deafening sound. When he opened his eyes suddenly, he by the sight

Elephant was stunned. "It's done." He Jia'an, who had been holding a breath in his heart, couldn't help but slapped his thigh hard after seeing the cannon successfully ignited. In the city, but there is no one

He was able to fight, and he just wanted to go forward to see how the shelling effect was, but suddenly thought that Zhengde was not far away, so he stopped quickly and looked at Zhengde at the side.It's not that Zhengde has never seen Shenjiying fire a gun, but he has never seen such a powerful artillery fire at such a close distance. Just now, he saw a fiery red light in front of his eyes, and then heard a deafening explosion

, even the dragon chair under his feet was trembling slightly.

Is this... the cannon that He Jiaan mentioned?

Before Zhengde could recall it, He Jia'an had already stood in front of him, and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the Firearms Division successfully fired the tiger squatting cannon. Please, Your Majesty, go and check the power of the artillery in person."

"Okay, okay." Zhengde said yes three times in a row, then stood up from the dragon chair, separated the guards who were standing in front of him, and walked towards the artillery.

Soon a group of people came to Bai Huatian and Zhou Jing's side first, and the two of them were still standing obediently. Zhengde couldn't help but patted Bai Huatian's shoulder, nodded and said with satisfaction: "Bai Aiqing is really amazing. Just a few words like that almost made Bai Huatian cry. Two months ago, he was still a blacksmith who was not full of food and clothing, and his daughter was almost snatched away. A month later, even Long Live Lord

Knowing one's surname is a major event for Guangzong Yaozu.Zhengde patted and walked over, and once again saw this mighty cannon up close, it was hard to imagine that the huge roar just now was fired by this cannon, he nodded in satisfaction, and then turned to the cannon just now. Cannon bombarded

The place went over.

In order to test the distance of the artillery as much as possible, a lot of dummies have been placed after a hundred steps. The upper bodies of the dummy are covered with Ming-style armor, in order to be able to test the effect of these cannons after the bombardment.

After walking more than 200 steps, I finally arrived in front of the first dummy. Probably the shells swept past the dummy and did not touch the dummy, and the armor on it was still intact.Seeing such an effect, Zhengde immediately showed a trace of dissatisfaction, and then walked forward, still without any damaged armor. As the number of steps gradually increased, He Jiaan also felt a kind of pressure inexplicably. , logically speaking

, the shooting range of this artillery should be between [-] and [-] paces, but I saw that the dummy was almost at the limit of [-] paces, and I didn't see a dummy that was knocked down by the shell. What's the matter again?The expression on Zhengde's face had already become extremely ugly. When he was in front of the last dummy and looked at the undamaged armor, he finally couldn't hold back his temper, turned around and stared at He Jia'an and said: "He Sir, you give me

Explain, explain, what is going on. "Explain, how should I explain it? I don't know how to explain such a miraculous thing. Even if the power of the cannon is not enough, the shell must have a landing point. Why can't I find it after searching for so long? , could it be that the shell

Is it God?

He Jiaan looked into the distance with a look of anxiety, and at this moment, a pile of crushed stones not far away suddenly attracted He Jiaan's attention.

What caught his attention was not how strange the stone was, but that these stones were clearly absent just now.

"He Jiaan, I asked you something." Without He Jiaan's answer, Zhengde's temper was like adding fuel to the fire.He Jiaan suddenly pointed to the front and murmured, "Report to Your Majesty, where are the shells."

Chapter 751

Looking in the direction of He Jiaan's finger, except for a pile of gravel scattered on the ground, he didn't see anything out of the ordinary. Just when Zhengde was about to ask, He Jiaan had already hurried over , pick up

One of the stones, looking at the blackened place on it and smelling the pungent smell of gunpowder, couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly shouted: "Your Majesty, this big stone has been smashed by the artillery."

Well?There is still such a thing?Zhengde walked over quickly, took the stone from He Jiaan's hand, and looked at it carefully for a while. He Jiaan pointed to the traces of gunpowder on it, and asked Zhengde to smell the remaining gunpowder smell. This time Zhengde finally believed that He Jiaan had not lied.

People, it's just that the shell just missed the target.Having seen such a powerful cannon, Zhengde was naturally overjoyed, and returned to his seat, watching Zhou Jing fire another cannon for the second time, and this time He Jiaan placed the straw targets to [-] paces The left and right positions are lined up in a row

After the sound of the cannon, about four or five dummies lined up were all blown away by the force of the explosion.

Seeing this situation, the color on Zhengde's face became more intense, and he pulled He Jiaan but asked with concern: "He Qing, this time, can our tiger squat cannon be compared to that Franco cannon?"
