Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

But to see the specific killing effect.

"Go to the place where the iron ball landed just now, and place more wooden boards, stones, iron boards, straw figures and the like."

"Anyway, put more things, I want to see the lethality of the artillery!"

Li Ke gave orders to the soldiers.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The soldiers were also looking forward to this scene, and immediately went to prepare.

On the other hand, Li Ke asked the soldiers in charge of firing the artillery to clean the barrel.

"Every time the artillery is fired, the barrel must be cleaned to remove the residue inside."

"In addition, use a stick wrapped with cloth strips to dip in water and gently wipe the gun bore to cool down the gun bore."

"After cooling down, dry the barrel with a dry cloth, and then add gunpowder and shells inside."

Li Ke focused on explaining to the soldiers the follow-up work after the artillery was fired.

After all, these people should be the earliest artillerymen of the Shenji Battalion, so of course Li Ke has to teach them seriously.

This is also one of the disadvantages of artillery in this era, and the steps are a bit cumbersome.

But there is no way but to adapt.

And as long as you practice more and train these steps into muscle memory, in fact, the speed of real fighting is still quite fast.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Hearing this, several people nodded immediately, and then acted according to Li Ke's instructions.

It was only then that everyone discovered why Li Ke asked them to prepare these things.

Sure enough, just as they had thought in their hearts before.

Li Ke never let them do meaningless things.

What they feel is useless, they just don't know how to use it.

Soon, the gun bore was cleaned and the temperature of the gun bore dropped.

After the people in the distance had finished placing all the things that simulated the battlefield, Li Ke signaled them to repeat the previous actions.

Add gunpowder to it, compact it, and add solid iron balls.

Put the lead through the hole, strike the match, and light the fire.

A series of procedures, only the second time, the soldiers are very proficient.

boom!

Boom!

There was another loud noise, and the earth shook!

A red solid iron ball burnt by the explosion was launched quickly, and then quickly became a smaller and smaller black spot in everyone's eyes.

Since everyone has already had an experience, they are also mentally prepared this time.

When the artillery was fired, apart from the fact that the sound was still deafening and their feet still felt vibrations, they were not surprised at all.

After firing, the artillerymen consciously began to clean the barrel and cool down the barrel.

The movements became more and more proficient, and he was very talented as an artilleryman.

"Go, let's see the effect."

Li Ke took Su Dingfang and others on horseback to see the lethality caused by the shells.

"It seems that I have to get out the telescope, otherwise I have to run to see it every time."

Li Ke had a plan in mind, and asked someone to get the telescope out after returning home.

In this way, whether it is sailing or fighting at sea, it can play a very important role.

Just like now, if he has a telescope, he doesn't have to go to see it.

But it was quick to ride a horse, and they quickly saw the horrors of where the shells had passed!

Yes, it can only be described as tragic!

I saw that there were some thick wooden boards, large stones, iron boards and straw figures originally placed here.

But now it is clear that all these obstacles in a straight line have been destroyed!

The planks were shattered by shells, and there were sawdust all over the floor!

The hard stones were smashed to pieces, and the ground was broken!

As for the iron plate, a round bullet hole was punched out, which could not stop the advancement of the shell in the slightest.

As for the straw man?

They had been beaten and scattered all over the place.

In short, sum it up in one sentence.

Where the shells pass, not a blade of grass grows!

"hiss!"

Su Dingfang and the others couldn't help but gasp when they saw the tragic scene where the shell passed by.

His eyes were full of horror, and his face was full of shock and fear!

This weapon is really terrifying!

Whether it's wood or iron, whether it's a boulder or a straw man.

As long as it is on the forward route of the shells, everything will be smashed for you!

The cannonball is like a meteorite falling from the sky, as long as it stands in front, it will be smashed into a pulp!

Just imagine, even the iron plates and stones are broken for you.

Not to mention the flesh and blood of mere people?

How does manpower stop such a high-speed and powerful shell?

I'm afraid that as long as he rubs the shell a little bit, he can only die on the spot!

If this weapon appears on the battlefield, it will completely change the balance of the battlefield!

And this weapon is more terrifying than a pack of explosives!

The explosive package was thrown about 200 meters by the trebuchet at most.

But the effective killing distance of this artillery has reached 2 meters!

It is ten times that of a trebuchet!

And according to what Li Ke said, this range can continue to increase!

Ten times is already an exaggeration. If it can go further, then this battle will not be fought at all.

Before you even meet someone, everyone on your side is already dead!

"General Su, earlier this king said that the Shenji Battalion should become a special army with special weapons."

"Now, are you satisfied with this weapon?"

Li Ke looked at Su Dingfang with a smile, and couldn't help but ask a question jokingly.

"Your Highness, this weapon is simply an artifact on the battlefield, and the general is very satisfied with this weapon!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your attention to Shenjiying!"

Su Dingfang said to Li Ke in an extremely sincere and awe-inspiring tone.

From Chang'an City to Yangzhou, Li Ke told him several times that he would provide special weapons for the Shenji Battalion.

This weapon is different from all the weapons in Datang now.

Once equipped with this weapon, even if there are only 5 people in the Shenji Battalion, they can easily defeat 10 elites!

Although he had great trust in Li Ke, because of the passage of time, Li Ke usually didn't ask much about Shenjiying.

He even wondered if Li Ke had forgotten about it.

But today, when he saw the artillery with his own eyes, and the terrifying lethality and dominance displayed by the artillery.

He was completely convinced!

Li Ke did not lie, this is really a new type of weapon that is completely different from all weapons of Datang!

Moreover, with the artillery, he has enough confidence to lead the 5th Battalion of Divine Machines to defeat 10 elites!

"Next, a group of people will be selected to serve as the artillerymen, who will be responsible for the firing and maintenance of the artillery."

"I will give another weapon to the Shenji Battalion in the future. It is an individual weapon."

Li Ke asked Su Dingfang to select a group of professional artillery.

And revealed to him that there is another weapon that will be given to Shenjiying next.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Su Dingfang nodded immediately, and he was also preparing to train a group of artillerymen.

At the same time, he was also very interested in another new weapon that Li Ke said.

"Your Highness, is it the one that the steel workshop is researching?"

At this time, Su Dingfang also thought of the seamless steel pipe that Li Ke asked the steel workshop to study before, and his eyes lit up.

He didn't know what it was used for before, but he already knew the function of the artillery. The seamless steel pipe, which has the same effect as the artillery, may also be a new weapon!

It is also a long-range strike weapon!

"You're pretty smart!"

Li Ke glanced at him in surprise, then nodded with a smile.

"His Royal Highness is absurd!"

Su Dingfang was overjoyed when he saw Li Ke 3 nodded in agreement.

According to Li Ke, it is an individual weapon.

Explain that at that time, each person should have one piece, and then add another piece of artillery.

Such a well-equipped and powerful Shenji Battalion.

He didn't even dare to think that any army in this world could be their opponent!

Perhaps, Li Ke's statement that the 5 Shenji Battalion defeated 10 elites is still too conservative.

Judging from his strategic vision and combat experience, as long as he is properly arranged, he can completely fight 20 elites!

"Continue the experiment, remember to record the data, what is the maximum amount of gunpowder, and what is the range of the projectile with the maximum amount of gunpowder."

"Be sure to pay attention to safety during the experiment, and retreat to a safe distance after igniting the fire!"

Li Ke explained to several artillerymen.

"Yes, Your Highness, thank you for your concern!"

Several artillerymen saluted Li Ke gratefully.

They didn't expect that Li Ke didn't forget to pay attention to their safety while explaining the tasks!

"We need to make more artillery, and we should make it according to this standard."

Li Ke then looked at the craftsmen again.

The artillery has been tested so far, and overall I am very satisfied.

There are basically no problems, and mass production can begin.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The craftsmen of the steel workshop also nodded, in a very good mood.

Li Ke let them continue to make, which shows that Li Ke is very satisfied with the artillery they made.

This is also a kind of recognition for their work!
