Chapter 770 Fire/Cannon Test(1/2)
The civil and military officials sitting here looked confused when they heard the conversation between Gan Ning and Qin Qi. They couldn't figure out what it was about.
Can't understand anything.
Fire/artillery research and development and production are carried out under extremely high confidentiality conditions, and are listed as SSS restricted areas by Qin Qi, and no one is allowed to enter.
Even if a general weapons workshop is tightly guarded, it is not on the same level as a fire/artillery or fire/powder workshop.
Not even a fly can fly in.
To enter and exit the two workshops, you need to check your ID three times before you can enter the two workshops. Even Qin Qi needs a pass.
"Lord, we can't understand a word of what you said to Gan Xingba. What do you mean?"
Liu Ba shook his head and said.
hehe!
Qin Qi smiled.
"It's time for you to see the power of the heat/weapon. This is a weapon that I have asked the workshop to develop for many years.
A cross-century weapon. Once this weapon is released, various tactics will undergo earth-shaking changes.
It was not until recently that a breakthrough was made. Today, let's go and see the power of fire/cannon."
Qin Qi said.
The big guys sitting here are either strategic big guys or tactical big guys. Who doesn’t know what it means to revolutionize tactics?
I also yearn for it in my heart, what kind of weapon it is.
A century-old weapon!
This means breaking the traditional combat model.
How is this possible?
"Let's go! Let's go to the naval armored warship and have a look at it. You will understand what kind of weapon it is."
Qin Qi said.
Qin Qi, Gan Ning and several big bosses walked out of the general's mansion, boarded Qin Qi's special carriage, and headed towards Xiakou Pier.
This is a four-wheeled carriage, which is sealed with steel plates on all sides. It is very solid, and a sword can only leave marks on it.
There is a coffee table in the carriage, where you can drink tea, drink, or rest when you are sleepy. There is a simple bookshelf in the carriage.
The Han Dynasty had no entertainment whatsoever. They could only read books, relax their minds, and seek self-satisfaction.
The shock absorption system of the carriage is very good. When the cup is placed on the coffee table, water will not spill out unless the road conditions are very bumpy.
The Xiakou Army captured territories in Southeast Asia and other areas and obtained a large amount of rubber, which greatly improved the precision of the manufacturing industry in the Xiakou area.
Various sealing rings basically use rubber products, and twine is no longer used as a seal.
With the advent of rubber, carriage wheels were replaced with rubber, making the carriage faster and more comfortable while driving.
For this reason, Xiakou Workshop planned to build a factory to specialize in the production of luxury carriages and sell them to wealthy families.
After a while, the carriage arrived at the dock and entered the naval base. There were various warships of different sizes docked on the water.
salute!
Along the way, the sailors saluted Qin Qi and other bosses.
Qin Qi, Gan Ning and other generals returned the military salute.
Gan Ning took everyone aboard an armored warship with a displacement of over a thousand tons.
There is one artillery/cannon installed on each of the front and rear decks of the armored warship.
"Everyone, this is a fire cannon, a real thermal weapon. It is very powerful. Let's test fire it later and see."
Qin Qi said.
The armored warship started and sailed out into the Yangtze River. Also sailing out were several quat boats, specially used to test the power of artillery.
"Lord, what kind of fire/cannon is this? Does it just look like a big iron lump? Is it really that terrifyingly powerful?"
Liu Ba said in confusion.
A group of big guys also doubted the power of such an iron lump. Xun You, Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Xi Zhong touched the cannon with their hands, but they couldn't see anything.
This fire/cannon is actually a small fire/cannon with a caliber of five centimeters, which has long been eliminated in later generations.
Even a six centimeter caliber mortar/cannon is more powerful than this.
"Mr. Zichu, don't underestimate this big iron lump. If a cannon hits it, it can blow a hole out of the warship.
If a person is hit by artillery, he will be instantly reduced to fragments, and no bones will be left. Wait a minute and let the navy blockade the Yangtze River.
We conducted a test launch on the Yangtze River. Originally, the test was to be carried out deep in the sea, and we did not have extra time.
It has been tested on the Yangtze River, mainly to let everyone experience the power of fire/cannon."
Qin Qi said.
Qin Qi's words still couldn't be believed by several big bosses. After all, they had never seen or heard of overheating weapons.
"Lord, the Yangtze River has been blocked. Ships and no one are allowed to pass within ten kilometers."
Gan Ning said.
"Start testing!"
Qin Qi said.
"As you command!"
Gan Ning said.
Qin Qi, Xun Yu, Xun You, Xi Zhong, Jia Xu, Fazheng, Lu Su, Cao Cao, Liu Ye, Liu Ba, Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Chen Gong, Cheng Yu and others stood on the deck to watch.
Gan Ning asked the soldiers to take out various earplugs and hand them over to the bosses.
"Everyone, this thing is called an earplug, which is specially used to block the ears. After a while, the test will be carried out. When the fire/cannon is fired,
It will produce very loud sounds, which the ears cannot bear and are easily injured. Earplugs are placed on the ears for protection.”
Qin Qi said.
Qin Qi took the lead in putting on the earplugs, and several bosses plugged their ears one after another.
The quake boat was released, and the sailors jumped on a warship and quickly left the quake boat. The quake boat was allowed to be impacted by the water of the Yangtze River and moved downward in the Yangtze River.
boom!
A loud bang!
A puff of white smoke appeared.
I only saw a solid bullet, shot out of the gun/tube like lightning, so fast that my eyes couldn't keep up.
Bang!
The solid bullet fell into the river and caused a huge splash.
The shot missed, more than ten meters away from the boat.
ah!
Tian Feng's screams rang out, and everyone turned to look over and found that Tian Feng's face was pale and he was covering his ears and shouting.
"Mr. Yuan Hao, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Qi said.
"My lord, it seems that I didn't fix my earplugs properly and my ears were slightly injured. The sound is so terrifying. It's so powerful. It's completely unexpected!"
Tian Fengdao.
Qin Qi shook her head and smiled bitterly, and helped Tian Feng put on the earplugs with her own hands.
"Mr. Yuan Hao, the sound waves are very powerful. If you don't pay attention, it will cause ringing in the ears and bleeding in the mouth and nose."
Qin Qi said.
Several sailors were adjusting their firing units, and some were reloading, which lasted about thirty seconds.
boom!
Another loud noise.
Bang!
The solid bullet hit the boat, and suddenly a huge hole appeared in the boat. Water from the Yangtze River flooded in. Within a moment, the boat sank to the bottom of the river.
This shocked all the big guys.
So fierce!
No matter how you say it, the Quai boat is also a boat. From top to bottom, several layers of wooden boards were penetrated, completely subverting the understanding.
What would be the result if this hit someone?
