Iron Dynasty

"Is it four or five meters long?"

In the main hall, Xiao Ming paced back and forth.

"You can't go wrong, and the muzzle is very thick, your majesty, the lower official is thinking, this artillery must be used to attack the city." Wang Xuan said.

"If it's like you said, then this gun is indeed used to attack the city." Xiao Ming frowned.

Urban artillery is a famous siege artillery in history. It was this artillery used by the Ottoman Empire to blast off the walls of Constantinople, but this artillery was very heavy and spliced ​​together.

During the war, it needs to be transported section by section, and then assembled on the battlefield.

However, to forge such a thing is laborious and laborious, and Urban's technology is a product of the mid-15th century. Although it is powerful, it has a short range.

He didn't believe that the barbarians would use this type of artillery as the main artillery, after all, Bei Shan had seen the range of Qingzhou artillery on the grassland.

"It's just that Xiaguan saw another trace of shells on the ground when he sneaked into the test firing range. Xiaguan suspected that the barbarians had more than one type of artillery, so he planned to continue lurking. Unexpectedly, he was demolished at this time and had to escape back." Wang Xuan Said.

Wang Xuan said that, and he nodded. This was in line with the characteristics of the barbarian. He didn't believe that Bei Shan had come up with something similar to the last time.

This thing must be reserved for the final siege.

Wang Xuan talked about being betrayed many times, he couldn't help asking: "Who betrayed you."

"It's also the caravan from the Great Yu Kingdom, but this caravan comes from Zhaodi. They seem to be spying on the barbarian artillery. We were discovered by them." Wang Xuan said.

"Zhao Di? It seems that it is from King Zhao's person, but this has hurt you. Since the last time Zhao Yuanliang was asked to go back, King Zhao has always hated this King. At this time, putting you together is also his style of King Zhao. Ya must report, who doesn't know him."

"It's just that it has delayed our further exploration of the barbarian artillery." Wang Xuan was a little unhappy.

"It's okay, this king has already thought about it. Now that the urban artillery appears, the artillery skills of this barbaric clan are not much better." Xiao Ming believed.

First of all, the color shows that the barbarians cast bronze cannons, which shows that the barbarians do not master the technology of iron cannons.

In this way, the barbarians have to spend a lot of money to cast artillery, which is a matter of throwing money into it.

Because of the quality of steel and iron mold casting, his artillery can not only be mass-produced, but also be of good quality and low price. After all, iron is still cheaper than copper, otherwise copper will not be used as ancient currency, precisely because there is less copper.

Wang Xuan nodded, "It's just that I was almost killed by Wang Zhao's people this time. Your Majesty, I really can't swallow it anymore."

"Hmph, since King Zhao doesn't give him face so much, he doesn't have to give him face. Li San has found out a lot of Zhao Di's whereabouts during this period. These people will hand you over and kill them all." Xiao Ming's voice was chilly.

Wang Xuan sneered twice, "His Royal Highness, it seems that King Zhao is going to go crazy about the artillery. Now I am sending people everywhere to spy on artillery technology."

"That's natural. Zhao Wang is very ambitious. He has always wanted to replace my Xiao family. Now that Qingzhou artillery comes out and the Forbidden Army is equipped with artillery, Zhao Wang has to weigh whether his black armored cavalry can attack Chang'an. "Xiao Ming said.

"With the lessons of the barbarians in Cangzhou, this king Zhao is naturally disturbed." Wang Xuan said with a smile, "but your highness, even though we were exposed to the barbarians this time, the government didn't make them feel better. He also dismantled them. The identity of the Barbarians was chasing them when they were chasing us. Now King Zhao has not only broken off the fine work in Qingzhou, but also the fine work in the barbarian. In this way, he can only buy artillery from Qingzhou. Don't be merciful."

Xiao Ming could imagine the danger of Wang Xuan at that time. Fortunately, the barbarians were different from the Great Yu Kingdom, and they didn't like living in the city surrounded by walls, otherwise Wang Xuan would really not escape.

He squinted his eyes, and since Zhao Yuanliang left last time, the artillery business has ceased.

In addition to the imperial court, only the King Wei, King Chu, King Liang, and King Yong sent people to contact him. At the same time, they also placed orders. The military workshop is producing guns for export.

These orders have also brought him huge profits, and because of this, he has the money to make such a big move in Qingzhou.

"Hmph, he is unkind, so don't blame this king for being unrighteous." Xiao Ming said bitterly.

This time Wang Xuan was injured and exposed his identity, which will bring a lot of inconvenience to information collection on the grassland in the future.

Wang Zhao made it clear that he wanted to make Xiao Mingcheng blind, and he would be caught off guard by the barbarians.

In his plan, it is estimated that he still hopes that the barbarians can win Cangzhou City and go south, so that the two pillars of the royal family will fall.

At that time, Wang Zhao could sit down and start the price.

Asking Wang Xuan to go back to rest and recuperate, Xiao Ming frowned at this time. After so long, the barbarian forging artillery was finally confirmed.

In this way, I am afraid that the battle between him and Bei Shan in Youzhou is not far away.

In the last battle of Cangzhou, Bei Shan suffered humiliation in Shengdu. This time he must bring the army to come and retrieve his lost reputation.

And this time the revenge must be fierce.

It's just that Xiao Ming is also waiting for this opportunity. The flintlock arrangement will give him the ability to fight the barbarians in the wild.

In this way, he and Zhan Xingchang's fortress advancement plan can continue to be implemented, so that he can encroach on the land of Youzhou step by step, until the barbarians are driven out of Youzhou and retake the former Yanyun Sixteen Prefecture.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming clenched his fists. During this time, he had to grasp the production of the flintlock, and after the flintlock came out, it would take at least three months of training. This is still a long process.

But this is also a long process for Bei Shan.

Shengdu~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In a silver tent, Bei Shan closed his eyes slightly.

In front of him was an Ottoman with curly hair, brown eyes and a high nose.

"Are you sure Urban Artillery can smash the city walls of Cangzhou?" Bei Shan said coldly.

"Beshantaiji, please believe me. Urban artillery once blasted the strongest city wall, and the wall of Dayu Kingdom was even more vulnerable." The Ottoman craftsman looked at Bei Shan in awe.

He was looted when the barbarians took the city, and they were forging artillery in that city.

Bei Shan nodded. A few days ago, Shengdu's detailed works from the great Yu country appeared, which is enough to show that the great Yu country is also afraid of artillery.

"I hope your words are not wrong, or I will cut off your head when the time comes." Bei Shan said sharply.

When the craftsman heard the words, his body trembled with fright. At this moment, a guard suddenly came in and said, "Taichi, the messenger from Korea is here."
