"Boom!" A shocking loud noise echoed in a corner of Yangzhou Industrial Park.

"This, this, this!" Yangzhou's civil and military officials were all there, including the inner minister Xu Shu, the Minister of Personnel Lu Su, the Minister of War Zhuge Liang, and even the Minister of Revenue Mi Zhu.

Now everyone is watching the secret weapon of Yangzhou under the leadership of Liu Ye, the Minister of Works.

After the loud noise ended, the person was stunned, because the small hill ahead was directly bombarded with a pit, and the wooden target scarecrows had long been swept away.

"How is it!" Liu Mang said to everyone with a smile.

"Three miles?" The distance between the wooden target on the Lu Su observer and himself and others was 1,500 meters. Three miles, in other words, 1,500 steps. This distance can actually make such a distance. What kind of weapon is this?

Lu Su originally thought that the crossbow was the whole of Yangzhou. You must know that Lu Su was captured by the crossbow when he was working in Jiangdong. But now even though Yangzhou has become the third generation of crossbow, Lu Su knew that no matter which generation of crossbow, it would be completely a scumbag compared to the copper lump in front of him. The crossbow has a range of only 700 steps, but this cannon can shoot 1,500 steps.

"Haha, Sanlidi, this is just my thousand cannons." Liu Mang said with a smile.

"Two hundred gold!" Mi Zhu, the Minister of Revenue next to him, also spoke. When his mouth was opened, he naturally showed money. The bronze cannon in front of him was piled up with money. One barrel of this bronze cannon is one thousand kilograms of copper. Copper represents money. How much copper coins can this thousand kilograms of copper be made? One thousand kilograms are equivalent to two hundred gold.

This is the Thousand Cannons, and the three thousand cannons run to the door is 600 gold. In addition, the shells and gunpowder, the cannon racks, and the cost of a thousand cannons must be between 350 and 400 gold. The price of a three thousand cannon is even higher, and at least a thousand gold is worth a thousand gold. This makes Mi Zhu, who has always been stingy, want to open up a penny for two yuan, and how can he not feel sorry for Mi Zhu, who has been stingy for two yuan?

So when he heard that his lord Liu Mang was going to build this cannon, Mi Zhu immediately rejected it. What kind of cannons do you want to buy more soldiers and horses? Now a war horse is only ten gold. Even if it is transported from Liaodong, it is only thirty gold per war horse. A thousand cannons can buy ten war horses, and a three thousand cannon can buy dozens of them. How many cannons do you need to build a cannon battalion? I am afraid that you can build another heavy armored cavalry. But when Mi Zhu saw the scene in front of him, Mi Zhu couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Although those targets were scarecrows, those scarecrows were all wearing heavy armor made in Yangzhou. To put it bluntly, this heavy armor is now priceless on the black market.

Because the heavy armor of the Yangzhou Army not only looks good, but also is very practical and has strong defense capabilities, which is much better than those of other princes.

But even such a pair of heavy armor is vulnerable to the face of this thing called a cannon.

All the wooden targets were broken up and the iron armor was split into pieces. If this was a real person, that death would be a little miserable.

"Zifang, are these cannons worth hundreds of gold?" Liu Mang said to Sherlock with a smile.

"Worth it!" Mi Zhu's face was unstable, saying that he was indeed worthy of the cannon that shocked Mi Zhu. If this thing was like this in front of the enemy, who could withstand it? But he was not good. Mi Zhu knew Liu Mang's plan. There were 500 cannons of this thousand cannons, even if you were three hundred gold per one, it would be fifty thousand thousand gold, and there were 100 thousand gold for those three thousand cannons, which was 100 thousand gold. The total amount was 250,000 gold. Where did you take out so much money!

Although Yangzhou is rich, it can't stand such flowers. So Mi Zhu feels distressed.

"Don't worry, Zifang, with these cannons, are you still afraid of not having money?" Liu Mang patted Mi Zhu's shoulder and comforted Sherlock. As the saying goes, a cannon will cost ten thousand taels of gold. Liu Mang wanted to use these cannons to sweep the princes in front of him to the corner of history one by one. No one can stop him from unifying the world. He has no money in Yangzhou, so he will go to grab money and go to those rich places to grab it.

Mi Zhu's face was a little better after Liu Mang said this.

But it wasn't much better yet, and he almost vomited an old blood. "I decided, these thousand cannons are one thousand, and these three thousand cannons run three hundred!" Liu Mang waved his hand. What is this cannon? This is a hot weapon. With this cannon, Liu Mang can attack the world. It was him who pioneered the hot weapon.

"Puff!" Mi Zhu's face turned pale again.

'Zifang, Zifang, what's wrong with you? "Mi Zhu's face turned ugly, "Doctor!" Mi Zhu was quickly taken down. The doctor said that he was nothing serious but was scared.

"This thing is called a cannon!" Zhuge Liang was much better than others. He still looked like he was not shocked, but that was just a superficial one. You didn't see Zhuge Liang's feather fan being brought upside down by him.

Never, I have seen such a thing, such as crossbows, stone throwing machines, Zhuge Liang, and even bed crossbows, but Zhuge Liang has never seen this thing called cannon, which completely subverts Zhuge Liang's tradition.

If this thing is used to bombard the city walls and gates, what kind of city wall can it be withstand? There is no need to give him twenty more cannons like Zhuge Liang and five thousand elite soldiers. As long as he builds a camp outside the enemy's city and keeps bombing the enemy's city day and night, he doesn't have to send troops to fight, and the enemy may surrender.

If you have this thing, you don’t even need conspiracy and tricks. You can only surrender to ten times with one force. Zhuge Liang thought about it again. What if the enemy attacked him with this thing called cannon? Zhuge Liang thought about it and could only shake his head. If under the same conditions, if you leave the city and fight with the enemy without any effect, the existence of this cannon will make the city useless.

"Lord, lord, then, those three thousand, three thousand cannons, don't look!" Ma Jun next to him looked at the big figures in Yangzhou who were surprised by his masterpiece, and was very proud.

"You must, of course!" Liu Mang said to Ma Jun. Thousand Cannons and Three Thousand Cannons are all what Liu Mang wanted. The reason why he made cannons first was that it was easier to make cannons. As for muskets, Liu Mang didn't want them, but he also knew that a person could not eat a fat man in the city at once. The cannons could be made rougher because they were so heavy. Just use copper to pile them up on them. But this musket is not good. Muskets are a fine job, so they wait until the cannons are formed before using them.

"Three thousand cannons!" Liu Ye shouted to the people under his command, and soon a cannon that was many times larger than before was pushed up.

The big guy in front of him was about three meters long, with a diameter of 110-130 mm and a weight of about 3,000 kilograms to 4,000 kilograms. A little pattern was carved outside the edge of the cannon, and there was a hideous lion on it, as if he was about to tear the enemy apart.

"Cleaning the cannon chamber, putting medicine, and putting projectiles!" These actions were taught in the books brought back by Liu Mang.

To clean the barrel, we must send out the air in the barrel, and to make the barrel cleaner cleaner and clean up the burned gunpowder for him to avoid explosion.

Put in gunpowder, this is the launching medicine, and the projectile is just some iron lumps. After putting it in, use a long stick to put the launching medicine and shells into effect.

"Ignite!" Soon a large torch was taken over. Liu Mang and others naturally had to stay away from the three thousand cannons. Where was the lessons of the previous car? No one could fully guarantee that the cannon was safe, so for the sake of safety, everyone was still away from hundreds of meters.

Fortunately, telescopes have become popular among the Yangzhou army, so everyone took out one of their hands and looked at the scene over there.

"Boom!" The three thousand cannons did not disappoint Liu Mang. This time, the target of the three thousand cannons became a small city wall made of bricks and stones. He even used cement to lay the groundwork for reinforcement, but in the end, he was directly knocked down by the shell. With such a combat level, what other city walls in the world could be his opponent in this cannon?

"Two thousand five hundred steps?" Another amazing data. The data released by the thousand cannons just now was 1,500 steps, which was already scary, but now another 2,500 steps appeared. This is simply, Zhuge Liang and others don't know what words to describe it. It's taking the fortune of heaven and earth. This is simply turning the thunder of the palm of the immortals written in the book into reality.

Zhuge Liang was really glad that he chose the right lord for the first time. If this was the enemy, Zhuge Liang would not know what to use to deal with it because he had never seen this thing.

"Haha, haha!" Liu Mang laughed loudly, "It's him, it's him! Make him a thousand eight hundred people for me!"

"Lord, no, no!" Mi Zhu struggled over there, and immediately jumped up when he heard Liu Mang's words. If he had made a thousand eight hundred sects, would he still make people live.

"Lord, even though I am rich in Yangzhou, I can't afford the money of 1,800 families!" Mi Zhu always thought that he was a spendthrift. The original Mi family was known as Xu Banzhou, and he meant that the Mi family could buy half of Xuzhou, but that was only about 100,000 yuan.

Now this lord Liu Mang is much more promiscuous than his Mi Zhu. If his lord is a prodigal thing, then he Mi Zhu is really a representative figure of diligence and thrift. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
