    "12 miles away~"

    "Wind speed level 4~"

    On the ¡®Grand General¡¯, Li Yuanshan came to the deck where the artillery was arranged. Holding a telescope and using the knowledge learned at the Maritime Academy, he quickly calculated the many small Japanese pirate ships that were rushing towards him.

    "100% gunpowder~"

    Then he very calmly gave the order to load gunpowder.

    "Captain, will 100% gunpowder explode the chamber?"

    But as soon as his order was given, someone next to him said worriedly.

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, this is an artillery piece manufactured by Miyun Iron Works.¡±

    Li Yuanshan said very confidently, his eyes looking at the dozen artillery pieces lined up on the deck. These dozen artillery pieces were very different from the artillery pieces currently used by the Ming Dynasty army.

    These cannons were modified by Liu Jin based on the long ship cannons widely used in Europe in the 17th century. This long cannon also has a popular name called Hongyi cannon.

    This kind of long gun has many advantages. The barrel is long, the wall is thick, the caliber is large, and the overall shape gradually thickens from the muzzle to the breech, which is in line with the principle that the chamber pressure changes from high to low when gunpowder is burned.

    There are cylindrical lugs on both sides of the center of gravity of the gun body. The artillery can adjust the shooting angle based on this axis and change the range according to the amount of gunpowder. It is equipped with a front sight and a rear sight. The ballistic trajectory is calculated according to the parabola. The accuracy is very high and the range is high.  Very far, theoretically up to twenty miles.

    The most important thing in casting artillery is naturally the material.

    Some people are worried about the explosion of the chamber, which is not unreasonable, especially the artillery of the Ming army. Due to the deduction of military expenditure and the depletion of armaments, the quality of the manufactured artillery and muskets is extremely poor, and the chamber is often exploded.  Therefore, when artillerymen are shooting, they often only dare to load a small amount of gunpowder, fearing that the chamber will explode and kill themselves.

    But the artillery manufactured by Miyun Iron Works is completely different. These artillery were all manufactured under the guidance of Liu Jin. Liu Jin directly used grinding tools and poured molten iron at one time. All the artillery used were of the highest quality.  of steel.

    Hearing Li Yuanshan¡¯s words, the people in charge of controlling the artillery looked at each other and without any further hesitation, they loaded 100% of the gunpowder into the gunpowder and quickly set up the artillery, ready to fire at any time.

    "Light the fire~"

    Li Yuanshan made some calculations and coldly gave the order to light the fire.

    ¡°Boom~~¡±

    As the fuses burned, the muzzles of more than a dozen artillery pieces instantly ejected streams of flames, and at the same time there was a deafening loud noise.

    ¡°Buzz~buzz~¡±

    People around the artillery had their ears roaring.

    "I'll go~ This gun is too powerful."

    "It's not like I haven't fired a cannon before. Compared with this, the sound is no different from a firecracker."

    Those who know something can¡¯t help but pick out their ears and marvel.

    ??You can tell just by listening to the sound that the quality of this artillery is very good. 10% of the gunpowder is added into it. There is nothing wrong with this artillery. The sound it makes is deafening.

    ¡°Dong~dong~¡±

    On the sea more than ten miles away, many Japanese pirate ships were traveling rapidly, accompanied by iron pellets falling from the sky, and huge water columns instantly rose up on the sea surface.

    ¡°What a powerful artillery~¡±

    Matsuura Takanobu, who was paying attention to every move on the battlefield, was shocked. From such a long distance, the opponent's artillery was actually able to hit him, and it seemed that the shots were very accurate. He almost missed a few hits just now.  .

    "What kind of gun is this?"

    Matsuura Takanobu asked directly what he was talking about.

    "I don't know either. As far as I know, the quality of the Ming army's artillery is very poor and can only shoot a few hundred meters."

    Wang Zhi thought for a while and shook his head.

    "Can it only hit a few hundred meters?"

    Matsuura Takanobu had a vague premonition.

    "Who fired the cannon?"

    "How can you hit someone from such a distance?"

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? On the ¡®Huo Qubing¡¯, the leader of the advance team, Dong Mu, heard the huge sound of cannons and immediately roared angrily.

    "It was Vice Captain Li who fired the cannon~"

    The men under his command took a closer look and quickly replied.

    "If you do it randomly, no matter how far away you are, you won't be able to hit the enemy at all. It will only waste gunpowder."

    When Dong Mu heard this, he couldn't help but said, he still knows in this regard.nbsp; ¡°Speed ??up and rush over~¡±

    Matsuura Takanobu roared angrily. As long as he allowed them to get close to him, he believed that with the bravery of his men, he could easily capture the other party's ships.

    However, the nightmare has just begun.

    After the first and second rounds of shooting, the person responsible for directing the shooting will have a rough idea of ??the range, elevation, and parabola of the artillery.

    The next step is when the technology is truly demonstrated.

    "Target, 10 miles, wind speed level 4, angle reduced by 2 blocks, 100% gunpowder~"

    "Shoot~"

    On a ship, the person responsible for directing the shooting was constantly calculating, and after completing the calculation, he immediately ordered an attack.

    "Boom~"

    Accompanied by deafening loud noises, cannonballs attacked the Japanese pirate group one after another.

    ¡°Beautiful~¡±

    Dong Mu had been looking at the Japanese pirate ships with his telescope. In his field of vision, under the third round of attacks, several Japanese pirate ships were hit, directly punching huge holes in these ships. The ships were densely packed with  The Japanese pirates and pirates were suddenly covered in blood and flesh.

    "This cannon is also very accurate!"

    Dong Mu clenched his fists in excitement. It was incredible that he could shoot so accurately from such a long distance.

    This made him couldn't help but look at Duan Ping next to him with admiration. Despite his young age, he was only eighteen years old, and he came from a humble background. He was holding a pen and a notebook, writing and drawing in the notebook, and when he was directing the artillery attack, he  It's so precise, it's incredible.

    "Attack~Attack~"

    "Keep shooting~"

    ¡°Beat these Japanese pirates who are just like dogs to death~¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
