    A crater was blasted on the ground, and a lot of rocks were blown into pieces. This power was very small for Chen Wanrong, who understood modern warfare, and could be ignored.  However, for Ruizong and the others, this was a big deal.  Even if a person's martial arts reaches the realm of transformation, it is impossible for him to have such great power. Even if he does, it can only be possessed by a few people.  But Chen Wanrong did this easily, and they were shocked.

    Ye Tianheng had seen the power of the explosion yesterday, but he didn't expect that just one day later, its power would be much greater. He couldn't help stroking his beard and kept cheering: "It's really amazing, it's really amazing!"

    "Not bad, not bad!" Ruizong chuckled, his face lit up, and he looked at Chen Wanrong and said: "Wanrong, this power is pretty good. However, in my opinion, it seems that it is not suitable for use on the battlefield.  It's very possible. Do you think, if you want to throw this thing, how far can it be thrown? The enemy's bow and arrow will have already knocked you over."

    What he said makes sense, but is not entirely correct.  If someone throws it, it won't go very far, not even tens of meters.  However, bombs are useful on the battlefield.  Before Chen Wanrong had time to speak, Princess Taiping frowned and said: "Brother, it depends on how you use it. Just relying on people to throw it won't be able to throw it very far. However, if you hide behind the tree and wait behind the stone,  , wait for the enemy to rush forward, and then throw it out, the lethality is not small, much more powerful than a bow and arrow."

    After hearing this, Chen Wanrong was very surprised.  Princess Taiping's knowledge is much better than that of Ruizhong. No wonder she almost became the second Wu Zetian. This talent is indeed convincing.

    Li Longji smiled slightly and said: "I think the use of this thing should be viewed from two aspects. One is to throw it. If people throw it, my aunt is right. Thousands of people hold this thing and hide it, waiting for the enemy.  If we rush forward and attack together, what will be the result? I'm afraid the Turkic cavalry is no match for them either."

    The Turkic cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and they are skilled in riding and shooting, which has always been a headache.  After he mentioned this, Princess Taiping agreed: "Yes. This thing should be manufactured in large quantities. It would be perfect for dealing with Turkic cavalry."

    In fact, the Tang Dynasty has always been at an advantage in the war against the Turks.  The reason why the Tang Army had the advantage was not only because of its advanced equipment, light and strong armor, and sharp bows, but also because the Tang Army's cavalry was no worse than the Turkic cavalry. If the equipment advantage is taken into account, the Tang Dynasty cavalry was more lethal than the Turkic cavalry.  Be one step ahead.

    Of course, no one is stupid enough not to maximize the advantage over the enemy.  The bomb is so easy to use, but Li Longji would not be smart enough if he didn't use it to deal with the Turks.

    Chen Wanrong was so impressed by Li Longji's insight that he praised him: "The prince is a wise man!"

    Li Longji continued: "Another way to use it is to attack a fortified city. The Stone Fort City stands in front of it, blocking the Tang Dynasty's advance. It would not be difficult to defeat it if there is such a thing. However, in my opinion, a  To throw bombs into Stone Castle City, there are some trebuchets, but the distance is not enough. If necessary, you can ask the weapons supervisor to improve them. However, even if they are improved, they may not be able to meet the requirements. "

    The location of Stone Castle is very special. It is impossible to attack from both sides because no one can get up.  The distance using the trebuchet is not enough, so we can only attack by force.  Chen Wanrong saw the model made by Wang Zhongsi and decided to use artillery. Only artillery could reach the distance.

    What a quick response!  What an amazing insight!

    Chen Wanrong was shocked by Li Longji's insight and said with a smile: "The prince is absolutely right. That's why artillery is needed. With artillery, as long as it is fired, the shells can shoot very far, not even three or five miles."  question."

    "Three or five miles?" Ruizhong was a little surprised.

    For the people of the Tang Dynasty, the most powerful Fuyuan crossbow could shoot at most 300 steps, which is 450 meters, almost a mile, which is already very far.  The artillery can shoot three to five miles, which is far beyond their imagination. Not only Ruizong was surprised, but even Li Longji was a little surprised.

    Modern artillery can shoot dozens of kilometers, but the bronze cannon that Chen Wanrong wants to build is not very good. I believe that the range of three to five miles will still be no problem. He smiled and said: "Yes."

    Li Longji's insight showed again: "This is very good. There is just one thing. If it is used to attack cities, the power of this thing is too small. It should be made larger."

    There are many types of artillery, and field artillery and siege artillery are different.  Siege artillery is generally a huge cannon with a large caliber.  This is common sense to modern people, but Li Longji did not have any knowledge about artillery, but he could see this, which was extremely extraordinary.

    Chen Wanrong smiled and said: "The prince doesn't know something. It is precisely because of this that we have to build different cannons. Now we have to attack Shibao City. In my opinion, we don't need to build too big cannons. We just need to have enough range and the cannonballs."  As long as we can stay in the city. After all, Stone Castle?Send it.  "

    The two of them are the most familiar with this place, so naturally it would be better for them to arrange it.  The two of them had no objections and discussed it for a while. Liu Huaide stood up and said, "If it's about casting, I still have to push Brother Ye. Brother Ye is not young anymore. Master Liu and I want Brother Ye to give guidance and Master Zhang."  , Master Cao, Master Chu, please help me, is there any problem?"

    "No!" Ye Tianheng, Zhang Deming, Cao Zhixiong, and Master Chu responded in unison.

    Kou Yibing said: "Master Chen." He sat down.

    Chen Wanrong frowned and said: "There will be no problem with the shells. The gunpowder is easy to handle, and the shells are easy to handle. But, where can I find this saltpeter?" When used on the battlefield, a large amount of saltpeter is used.  Collecting all the saltpeter from all the medicine shops is not enough.

    "Saltpeter? Which of you knows where to find saltpeter?" Liu Huaide also frowned.

    The good workers looked at each other, shook their heads, and said nonstop: "I don't know." (To be continued, if you want to know the funeral, please visit www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, support the author, support  Genuine reading!) (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
