Dajin picked up a god of war

Chapter 1053: Limited Attack Power

They all wished to regard Wang Mi as the great savior of the Jin Dynasty, thinking that the pacification of the Central Plains was just around the corner.

This idea is also correct.

After all, in this era, the red-clothed cannon is still quite deterrent. On the one hand, lead bullets are in a state of scattering. With the current technological level of Dajin and Wang Mi's personal ability, he really can't make it. A real gun that fires solid shells.

It can only be mixed with various small steel balls, small lead bullets and gunpowder, and fired together with the barrel.

In this way, even if the quality of the artillery itself passes the test, its power is still high, and the power of the fired ammunition will be greatly reduced.

Not to mention, even the artillery itself still has serious flaws.

One is that the gun barrel that can be produced at the current technological level is still relatively thin. Although the gun barrel is already made of steel, there is still a big gap between this steel and the fine steel made by modern industry.

The degree of pressure on the gun barrel limits the firepower of the ammunition. Even if Wang Mi can produce solid ammunition now, there is no gun barrel that can withstand such a huge pressure.

So, for now, it can only be a pity.

In addition, since it is a scattered lead bullet, its offensive ability will definitely be greatly weakened. Therefore, the wall of the turret that was originally intended to collapse with a bomb was only slightly damaged, and no large-scale collapse occurred.

This is also consistent with Wang Mi's initial expectation. Although he has no doubts about the power of the red cannon, he is also very rational.

Before it has evolved to a certain level, the divine weapon of the red-clothed cannon has its power like this, and it has limitations.

This kind of shell, under the current technical level, can have the greatest attack effect, but those warships.

No matter how majestic the warships of this era looked, they were still wooden ships. As long as they were wooden ships, they would be easily damaged after being hit by lead bullets.

What happens after the hull of the warship is damaged?
Of course it's leaking!
Once the warship leaks, how can it sail on the big river?
Therefore, the most important function of the so-called Frang machine gun is not to attack the enemy, but more to destroy the enemy's warship.

If the warship leaks, it will capsize, so how can we fight?

Of course, it doesn't mean that these giant cannons are incapable of attacking the enemy, but, just like the pistols of this era, small lead bullets and iron bullets can indeed cause heavy damage to the enemy, but, because The firepower of ammunition is limited, so that the lethality is not so lethal.

Ah!
If you can have that powerful gunpowder filling technology at this time, which can perfectly combine gunpowder and iron shell casings, you will be invincible!
Unfortunately, reality is reality.

We are human beings, not gods. Even if we have blueprints and technology in our hands, it is absolutely impossible to copy all modern industrial products as they are.

Food should be eaten one bite at a time, and things should be done little by little.

"All right!"

"Everyone has seen it. This is the red-clothed cannon that I have devoted myself to studying for a while. You have also seen its power. With this kind of artifact, our army will definitely be able to wipe out the Central Plains and return to our homeland!"

Wang Mi stood on the high platform and shouted with pride. At this time, his good brothers had already jumped to the bottom of the high platform.

Seeing that it was time to declare success and enjoy the cheers of the crowd, the discerning subordinates knew at this time that they had to give the chance to show off to the general.

Are you still standing together?

From the development of the red cannon to the finished product, does it have anything to do with them?

How dare you stand beside Wang Mi?

But at this time, the only one who is qualified to stand beside Wang Mi is of course General Minister Pu Chao. Although he has repeatedly expressed his desire to jump down, Wang Mi does not allow it.

The completion of the production of the red cannon is inseparable from the hard work of Puchao. It should be said that as long as the finished product can be produced, and the ammunition of the finished product can really be fired, it is already a great transcendence for this era. up!
Pu Chao is the hero who witnessed this moment, and his contribution is indispensable!
And when Wang Mi made the prescribed action, everyone in the audience responded one after another, and at this time, it was obvious who the little clever ghost was.

Xu Xian took a step forward and responded loudly.

After repeating Wang Mi's slogan over and over again, under his guidance, many soldiers finally came to their senses.

Oh!
Yup!

At this time, showing loyalty is the most important thing, and for them, Xu Xianzhi's way is the best!

How did you realize it now?
Why is there always someone who can get ahead of them?

Is this the natural keen observation?
Looking down, Wang Mi expressed his relief to see that Xu Xianzhi was the one who took the lead in shouting slogans.

This young man really lived up to expectations.

Just know that at this time, he will jump the highest and run the fastest.

However, just like the meaning of the phrase "do your best", although Xu Xianzhi's mind is not pure, his ambition is huge, and this ambition can also push him forward and make many achievements.

And this kind of ambition and ability to do things is exactly what Wang Mi needs when he is in the stage of expanding his territory, so he will tolerate him.

And, now it seems that it is not so unbearable.

After all, look at him, after all, he is still too young, inexperienced, and ambitious, so he jumped out to challenge him so hastily, which is enough to show that his mind is not stable enough.

Not cunning enough.

Even if Wang Mi didn't need to take action, someone would deal with him.

You see, the eyes of Liu Muzhi and He Wuji are not very friendly.

That's right, why wait for Wang Mi to do everything?
The situation is different now. Talented people like He Wuji and Liu Muzhi are all young and have just started their careers.

And their fate has also changed a lot with the arrival of Wang Mi, and the whole trajectory is completely different.

With the restraint of these people, even if Xu Xianzhi has three heads and six arms, he can't make a big disturbance in the Heavenly Palace.

What's more, the current him is still very weak, and the times are different.

Xu Xianzhi in history was much older than his few helpers. That is to say, in the era under Wang Mi's control, whether it was Tan Daoji or Fu Liang, some were not born yet, and some were still playing with mud. It is impossible for them to provide any assistance to Xu Xianzhi, and they don't even know this civil servant who has already entered the Jin court.

Tomorrow's star.

As long as Liu Muzhi and He Wuji can display their strength normally, they should be able to suppress Xu Xianzhi.

Just as there was joy on and off the stage, the people in the city were once again frightened by the loud noise.

However, this time, their reactions were quite different from before.

They rushed to the city gate one after another, and some even climbed up the city wall, eagerly looking out of the city. When they saw the huge artifact and King Langya's energetic face, they immediately understood what happened.

"Good guy!"

"What kind of artifact is this?"

"so amazing!"

"Did you see it? The city walls are broken!"

A few strong men were the first to climb up the earthen wall and saw the scene outside the city. They were all the lucky ones. At this time, they were the most powerful people.

Definitely be the first to see the excitement.

But those people under them were not so lucky. Not only could they not stretch their necks to see the bustle outside the city, but they could only lie on the ground and step up for these strong men.

There is no way to do this. Only by helping each other can we see the excitement faster. There are always some people who have to sacrifice.

After all, the city wall is not so easy to climb. Although the side of the earth wall is a little shorter, it takes several people to work together to climb it.

"Come down quickly!"

"Let me go up and take a look!"

Everyone below is impatient, wanting to go up to watch the excitement, even those young women who don't often go out of the city on weekdays have come out of the house, and even those who want to find a few stepping stones also climbed to the city wall Take a look at the excitement.

This subtle change just shows that the Beifu soldiers led by Wang Mi are indeed well-disciplined and have outstanding military exploits.

It is precisely because they are so capable that the people trust them.

Even when they heard such a strange loud noise, they would not have any doubts, and even reacted quickly,

This is neither an earthquake nor an enemy army coming in, but the general workshop is developing new weapons, and this new type of weapon, needless to say, is the work of the respectable and lovely King Langya!

When people saw that their imagination was exactly the same as the reality, the person standing outside the city organizing the ignition of the cannon, the man standing on the high platform, although he was born handsome, but he exuded a majestic majesty, they jumped for joy. You can imagine how you feel!

Who doesn't want to be a citizen of a big country?

Who doesn't want to live in a country that is invincible to the outside world and the people inside live and work in peace and prosperity?
Although it seems to be sluggish and inactive, the enthusiasm at this moment is the expectation that is deeply buried in the hearts of thousands of people in Jiankang City!

They are also eager for victory, and they also hope to be able to whip the Central Plains and regain their homeland.

All the seemingly decadent attitudes towards life are negative confrontations against regrets that cannot change the status quo.

The thoughts of the common people at the end of Jin Dynasty seem to be similar to those of the Seven Sages in the Bamboo Grove.

Thinking of those celebrities who lived in seclusion in the bamboo forest in the past, drinking alcohol and composing poems all day long, it's not that they don't want to serve the court, nor do they want to achieve themselves, even, their mood to help the people is more urgent than ordinary people.

However, the current situation is such that it cannot be reversed by just a few celebrities.

At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, they had already seen this very keenly, and they were heartbroken over it.

This passion has been buried in the hearts of these humiliated Jin people for too many years. After repeated setbacks in the Northern Expedition, many people have gradually seen the truth and stopped fighting against fate.

As a result, they focused on all kinds of extravagant enjoyment, and were no longer interested in joining the army, nor did they want to fight.

The deeper reason is that you can't win anyway, so why die in vain?

But now, when this worry gradually dissipated, and when those important towns in the north returned to him one by one, the Jin people's mentality changed drastically.

They are no longer depressed, no longer indifferent, and even the various measures to exclude and demean warriors actively promoted by the big families in the past have gradually ceased to work.

Of course, it doesn't mean that it has no effect at all. After all, it is a concept that has been followed for hundreds of years, and it is absolutely impossible to clean it up in one fell swoop.

But, at least, the notion is less entrenched and less stigmatizing to join the military.

As a result, more and more young people joined the army. Among them, of course, there is a mixture of good and evil, but there must be more available.

Don't underestimate these people, and don't underestimate this force.

Many people don't realize that this is actually quite a rare transformation.

Since the South Crossing, how long has it been since this Jiankang city has such a scene of young people defecting to the army in groups?
It is no exaggeration to say that it has been 20 years!
This is a generation!

Then, the Beifu army under Wang Mi's control is equivalent to bringing together the power accumulated by a generation of people in Jiankang City.

Among them, how many generals and heroes should there be, it is simply innumerable.

With them, are you afraid that the Central Plains will not be pacified?

It can be said that seeing the changes in the atmosphere of Jiankang City during this period of time, Wang Mi's confidence became more abundant.

Now the red-clothed cannon has also been successfully developed. Although the number is not very large and the attack power is not so strong, one can imagine what a sensation it will be when these strange-shaped new firearms appear on the battlefield of the Central Plains.

Because of the limited ammunition and limited firearms, if you own these elementary firearms in ancient times, you may not necessarily be able to win.

After all, the number is still too small.

It was as if the inventor of the Franco cannon, the real Portuguese, was often beaten up by the Ming army and fled in a hurry when he invaded the Daming sea area in the early years.

With this kind of advanced firearm, it can naturally produce extraordinary effects, but it is bragging to say that once you have it, you can win.

If you can install a hundred red cannons in an army of about 2000 people, and have enough ammunition, then maybe you can win a real victory.

However, in fact, the current production level is really not up to that level. For example, this time, Wang Mi, although he used all his strength, but gathered the strength of the entire general workshop and rushed to work day and night. It's just that ten red cannons were built.

Ten doors!

Yes!

You read that right!
Although King Langya urged him again and again, and his craftsmen worked hard, there were still only ten red cannons built during this period of time!

Just relying on these ten red cannons and patting his chest and saying that the Central Plains will definitely be pacified, that is irresponsible to himself, and even more irresponsible to the tens of thousands of soldiers in Beifu, and even let down the people of Jiankang City Looking forward to it.

Frankly speaking, these cannons are basically a deterrent to the enemy when they are pulled on the battlefield. They can really kill the enemy on a large scale.
