Chapter 1288

"This is a very powerful long-range weapon that uses gunpowder to attack the enemy within our sight."

"Within its artillery fire coverage, no matter how strong the city defense, the strong iron armor, or the enemy who shouts outside the range of the crossbow, they will be smashed, torn apart, destroyed, and no one can survive. Within its range, it is the unrivaled sharp weapon of the country...

Therefore, it will shine on the battlefield. I believe you, like me, agree with this."

"But it also has one or another disadvantages. First, it moves slowly, and second, lacks gunpowder, so it is not even as good as a stone that can be thrown at the enemy, or a stick that can be used to wield."

"And, there will be no only this type of artillery. In the future, there will be several times more powerful than it, but there will be some lighter than it, even if it is two people can operate it.

It can be said that in the near future, as long as you follow the tigers of the Song Dynasty to the battlefield, you can see them. You can see them grow into the best weapons around the tigers of the Song Dynasty.”

"So, in-depth study and understanding, careful thinking, repeated research and deduction, how to maximize its strengths without exposing its weaknesses to the enemy's noses, is a new course that Wang is preparing to offer in the Imperial Academy..."

"And you, the children of the Northwest Generals, and you, the children of the princes and nobles, I wonder if you have this interest and are willing to be the commanders of such weapons that are so powerful that the heaven and earth will be trembled and resonated with it?"

"Will!" Wanyan Zonghan, this young and passionate young man, Wang Yang's fanatical admirer, was the first to raise his arm high and shouted loudly.

With the first person leading the way, the more than 20 children of the Northwest Wu family also raised their arms high. "Will!"

Here, some of the playboys were bewitched by Wang Yang and excitedly heard such a call. When they raised their arms without thinking, some people raised their arms reluctantly under the threat of their elders' gaze, including the fat man Cao who was just scared to sit on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the emperor couldn't help but laugh, walked to Wang Yang's side, and patted Wang Yang on the shoulder heavily.

"Very good. Only by asking you can I feel at ease with this matter, Zhao Ji..."

"My brother is here."

"The confidential work of Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon will be given to you and Wang Wushan. If you have any needs, just come and find me. I only need the result, do you understand?"

After hearing the gritting advice from the emperor Zhao Xu, Zhao Ji and Wang Yang both gave a deep bow. "I obey the order!"

The military weapon surveillance set up a separate artillery workshop, not far from the gunpowder workshop. This shocking powerful weapon also made the emperor realize the importance of keeping gunpowder weapons confidential. For this reason, another battalion of elite troops was specially transferred to guard the situation.

Ten miles around the gunpowder workshop and artillery workshop have been designated as forbidden zones. A small number of people who originally lived in this mountainous area have been migrated and left, with sentries covered.

The artillery was recognized by the emperor and the martial arts ministers. Wang Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief and could not help but secretly admired his idea of ​​being tall and small and refined.

Compared with muskets as individual weapons, the power and effect of cannons are easier to touch people's hearts. The roar of the sky and the earth cracking, and the desolate scene after the explosion of the flower bomb will definitely become a scene that will never be lost in the hearts of the Song Dynasty military bosses and the emperor who came to visit the cannon testers.

"What a strong wind... This damn ghost weather, Tokyo Bianliang is also in the north, but I'm really not as cold as here."

Wan Bin sucked his red nose hard, stomped his feet, and tried hard to wrap the thick fur tightly on his body. Then he held the warm and ear-protecting leather hat designed by Wang Yang on his head. He looked back at the warm environment in his carriage, and there was also a long-legged young lady who was smiling and glaring at him.

No, I can't delay my business because of my private affairs. As the best professional manager and ceo in the world, Wan Bin shook his head decisively, and wanted to turn his head back into the carriage. He wanted to find warm and gentle thoughts in the arms of his sister in this cold and thin world, and continue to walk forward.

The sea was surging and the big waves were slamming one by one on the coast. However, even the larger waves could not stop the enthusiasm of more than 10,000 workers not far away to build ports and docks.

Looking at the houses that had already risen from the ground, and the wide and straight cement straight roads that had been paved from the sea to the Jiaoxi County, Mizhou, which was more than 30 miles away from the dock area, Wan Bin's heart was filled with a strong sense of pride.

Before I came here, there were only a few small fishing villages near the sea, with a population of only more than a thousand households, and they have been fishing for generations.

Apart from fishing for a living, there is almost no income except selling seafood in exchange for daily necessities. Here, there are only a few simple wharfs.

After Wan Bin came here, he immediately visited the Mizhou magistrate, as well as nearby Gaomi County, Jiaoxi County, and the Laizhou magistrate adjacent to Mizhou and Laizhou counties.

With his fair share of tongue, the Wanhong Trading Company has become popular throughout the Song Dynasty and a large amount of gifts.

Soon, all the towns and towns in Laizhou and Mizhou were filled with recruitment notices. The high salary of 150 cents per day made countless people who struggled to survive on the line of food and clothing.

You know, 150 cents is a daily salary that only high-consumption cities like Tokyo Bianliang. In other places, the daily salary can reach 100 cents, which is already very good. 150 cents is simply unheard of for those hard-working civilians.

In addition, the government endorsed Wanhong Trading Company, and the loud brand effect of Wanhong Trading Company, in just ten days, more than 3,000 people gathered in this bay that is very suitable for building large wharfs.

Of course, he would not be the only one when Wan Bin came here. Just came with him, there were more than 300 craftsmen with profound skills.

Under their leadership, blast furnaces were built one by one, lime kiln, cement kiln, and brick kilns rose from the ground, and a brand new town was built.
