Thank you for the invitation. I am in the Ming Dynasty and swear not to be an official!

Chapter 59 Zhu Di witnessed the strength of the three-eyed bird gun

"King Yan!"

Zhu Di, who was sweating profusely, turned around unhappily when he heard Liao Tiancheng's voice.

Seeing Liao Tiancheng's relaxed face and clean clothes, Zhu Di felt even more unhappy.

We are the King of Yan, but we are as tired as a dog. You, a person with a foreign surname, are so cool!

So Zhu Di asked with a cold face: "What to do?"

"I'd like to borrow a hundred soldiers."

"doing what?"

"Try something new."

"try what?"

"Fire gun!"

Liao Tiancheng was a little annoyed by his half-dead expression.

But Zhu Di was even more upset: "Fire gun? So you have been struggling for a long time in the past two days just to make a fire gun? No need to try, my soldiers are very busy, you want to think about it yourself, don't waste our time! You don't want to live, I still want to live and enjoy this wonderful life! Just like you do all the things you do every day, we will all die when Yuan Ren comes!"

Liao Tiancheng smiled: "The Yuan people may arrive in a few days. How high can you build a city wall with only 1 people? If you want to survive, just listen to me."

"Hmph! When I left Yingtian, my father said, you do your business and I will take care of mine. If you interfere in my king's affairs again, you are resisting the decree. Be careful that I will hurt you!"

Liao Tiancheng was a little annoyed again: "I don't care about you. If you want to dig trenches and build walls, you can do it, but I must have a hundred soldiers!"

"Huh? Have you rebelled against me? How dare you speak to me like this!"

"I am the commander of Yinmagou Capital appointed by the imperial court. I will not interfere in your affairs, but I have the right to mobilize soldiers! Moreover, my fire blunderbuss is very different from the fire blunderbuss you have seen! Don't mess around. "

What the hell?Is this king still a fool?
King Yan was so angry that his tooth hurt.

But Liao Tiancheng did hold the title of commander of the capital, so it was hard for him to refuse.

So as he rolled his eyes, Zhu Di sneered: "Okay, okay, today I want to see the difference in your fire gun! If you waste my time and the soldiers' time, I will tell you the truth and tell my father to take it back." Take your death-free ticket!"

"Is there such a good thing? Then hurry up and impeach me. You can really give me the iron ticket to avoid death. When I see you in the future, I have to bow my head and come over respectfully!"

At this time, Zhu Di suddenly remembered something: I had heard that Liao Tiancheng wanted to withdraw the death penalty coupon. He thought it was a rumor before, but now...

After another burst of toothache, Zhu Di pointed a hundred soldiers with a sullen face: "Let's go! I will see what tricks you can play today!"

Liao Tiancheng didn't talk nonsense and led everyone to a distant place. Each soldier fired a three-eyed bird cannon.

After the soldiers got the new weapons, they were very curious and soon discovered something strange.

"This fire gun is much lighter! Darling, it's all made of iron!"

"Why isn't the muzzle straight? Will the cannon jam when it comes out?"

"What is the little iron piece on top for?"

"Why are there three barrels? Is it possible that it can fire three rounds at a time?"

Zhu Di was watching from the side, and he was also confused. He first felt that Liao Tiancheng's fire gun was not made correctly, but he also thought that with Liao Tiancheng's ability to make white sugar, refined salt, glass, and liquor, it was impossible to make some. The trash came out, so I just wanted to laugh, but when the words came to my mouth, I suppressed them.

"Everyone be quiet!"

Liao Tiancheng cleared his throat.

"Please pay attention! There is a small object installed on each fire gun. I call this a sight! To put it simply, it is used to hit the target more accurately after being installed!"

"But these are the different sights made by a hundred blacksmiths, so which one is easier to use needs to be observed in actual combat!" "The so-called sight is actually the same as archery. Let's give it a try and it will be clear. Know how to use it!”

"There are a hundred target positions set up for everyone in front of us, now everyone starts test shooting!"

"By the way, this gun can fire three rounds of ammunition at a time. The recoil is a bit strong. Everyone, be prepared!"

Seeing how serious he was speaking, Zhu Di became more serious and stared at the target in front of him.

The marbles are loaded, and the next step is to load the gunpowder.

When Liao Tiancheng saw someone filling only half a spoon, he immediately shouted again!

"Everyone, stop it! I have another question, I need to add it!"

"In the past, everyone had different amounts of powder, which resulted in huge differences in the distance the marbles shot. Sometimes too much powder would even cause the chamber to explode! This time, I designed medicine spoons of the same specifications for everyone, and everyone filled them fully every time. A spoonful of gunpowder can maximize the power of the firecracker!"

At this time, everyone discovered that their medicine spoons were indeed the same size and shape, and they couldn't help but praise them.

Obviously this problem also bothered everyone in the past, but now that Liao Tiancheng has solved it, everyone is aware of the problem and are looking forward to Liao Tiancheng's firecrackers even more.

Bang bang bang!
Soon someone fired first!
After a salvo, Liao Tiancheng led a hundred blacksmiths to the front to check the target.

Some targets were hit, but [-]% missed.

But this is also within his expectations.

This is the first time to use a brand new weapon, so it naturally requires a process of adaptation.

"Come again!"

After shooting like this for more than a dozen times, the soldiers gradually mastered some key points.

Looking at the target at this time, [-]% of the people have hit the target.

Some soldiers even hit the bullseye three times at a time, smashing the target into pieces.

The more Zhu Di watched, the more excited he became. Unknowingly, he was sweating with excitement and kept rubbing his hands. In fact, he also wanted to try it.

But why can't I wipe my face away? It's hard to say. I can only secretly feel itchy and envious here.

After shooting ten more times, Liao Tiancheng and the blacksmiths could clearly see that some targets had significantly more hits.

There are two reasons for this problem. One is that the sight is made well, and the other is that the soldiers themselves are awesome.

Liao Tiancheng called the soldiers corresponding to these targets and asked them to exchange fire muskets, and then tried again.

By exchanging firecrackers several times in this way, the influence of soldiers was eliminated, and a truly useful sight was found.

After finding the names engraved on these birds, Liao Tiancheng selected these craftsmen.

"I will personally ask His Majesty for everyone's credit later. Of course, the rewards for those who do well in the sighting will be larger! But I can guarantee that the rewards for others will not be bad!"

"In addition, the few who are good at it will each bring some craftsmen to make large quantities of muskets according to your designs!"

"Whoever has a good idea in the future to improve the craftsmanship of the gun and increase its power, I can also show you my credit!"

Liao Tiancheng's statement made the blacksmiths very excited.

Those who do poorly are motivated, and those who do well are even more motivated.

The soldiers went back to work, and the blacksmiths quickly returned to their posts and worked overtime to make the three-eyed bird musket.

Seeing Zhu Di still staring at a hundred bird cannons, Liao Tiancheng couldn't help but smile.
