Hongyi cannons have requirements for the quality of iron, but with the iron from the Song Dynasty, it is not difficult to make cannons.

With the technological level of the Song Dynasty, it was not impossible to manufacture artillery.

But it certainly won’t be produced at once, let alone in batches at once.

But Zhao Ning had to give the weapons supervisor a hint first and let them explore on their own.

"Guan, what is this? Please forgive me for being stupid."

"This thing is called a cannon. It is made of iron and has a hollow center. You can understand it like an iron bamboo."

"Iron bamboo?"

"That's right, put an iron ball inside it, fill it with gunpowder, and the gunpowder explodes to generate thrust, pushing the iron ball out."

In fact, the principle of artillery is not difficult. Gunpowder was widely used in the Song Dynasty, so it is even easier to understand artillery.

But it still takes a little time and a certain practical basis.

"I know, I will try it."

"There's no rush, I won't let you give this to me anytime soon. The top priority right now is weapons such as trebuchets and thunderbolts that can be mass-produced immediately."

"yes."
