My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 384 bombards the city wall!

“Yes, my lord!”

Ike complied and ran to the war horse beside him.

I saw a wooden shelf behind the war horse, and the wooden shelf even more Connected to a large bulging object at the rear.

This object is now covered by a thick cowhide cloth. Although the small nobles are very curious about what it is, they are temporarily unable to find out what it is.

Ike came to the warhorse, pulled the reins of the warhorse, and slowly led the warhorse to Gervais and a group of small nobles.

Gervais, without saying a word, lifted the kraft cloth behind the horse in the eyes of everyone’s expectations.

hua!

What immediately caught my eye was a thick iron rod!

That’s right! The little nobles used the iron rod to describe the small steel cannon, because they did not know what the small steel cannon represented.

I saw that the small steel cannon is black throughout. This is for anti-corrosion and concealment. Gervais specially asked the craftsman to paint it with black wood paint. Otherwise, the original appearance of the small steel cannon is silver and shiny. of.

The muzzle of the small steel gun is the size of a bowl, the top is wide and the bottom is wide, and the tail section of the gun barrel is slightly raised. This is to increase the strength of the small steel gun, although it is also forged with mithril, but In order to last longer, Gervais slightly thickened the bottom barrel.

The total weight of the small steel gun is more than 400 jin, and it has been fixed on the simple gun mount designed by Gervais at this moment.

This gun mount is made of a mixture of wood and iron, and there are two large wheels on the left and right sides for easy handling.

And behind the gun mount are two pillars that can be folded or broken apart to present a figure-eight shape.

This gun mount was also drawn by Gervais according to the impression of his previous life, and then perfected by two blacksmiths and carpenters in Tiangong stone house.

“Gervais, what is this? Is it a large musket?”

Alice also carefully observed the structure of the arquebus, so she saw that the small steel gun was thick There are many, but the middle is also hollow, so I immediately thought of this possibility.

“Large musket? Hehe, that’s fine! Alice, you’ll find out later!”

Hearing a question from his cheap wife that he had never seen before, Gervais I blinked and laughed, this is the best experience of transmigrator, everyone is ignorant, only I know it!

Simply put: it’s time to pretend again!

Gervais’s voice fell, and Ike’s side had already brought over the gunpowder and shells that had been prepared and started loading.

Although they didn’t use artillery, they were very skilled in using it, so Gervais didn’t need to do it himself, and a few people quickly loaded the artillery.

In the end, Gervais personally poked the small hole reserved at the end of the gun with an iron drill, and then inserted a lead wire of about ten centimeters.

During this period, the small nobles moved their footsteps unconsciously, moved towards the artillery, and wanted to see what happened.

Both Cod and Bart were even more killed, and ran to the front of the cannon curiously, stretched their heads and moved towards the inside of the cannon barrel curiously.

“Big brother, you two have to change this habit!”

Gervais couldn’t complain.

“Okay, everyone, please stand back now, and you better cover your ears, and don’t blame me if you’re scared later!”

Gervais waved his hand, Start chasing people, especially Bart’s little fatty and Kurt.

A group of small nobles watched for a long time, but couldn’t see any clues about the small steel gun. After hearing what Gervais said, they were very cooperative, and quickly moved towards the back and retreated four or five meters.

Gervais ignored them, walked directly behind the small steel cannon, and started aiming.

To tell the truth, Gervais has never shot a gun, so he is aiming in a precise direction. As for the angle of the gun, it can only be estimated.

The direction is easy to control, but the height of the gun’s muzzle must be calibrated with a few shots.

Because the trebuchets on the city wall are all placed at the inner end, if the Gervais artillery shoots directly, it is impossible to hit the trebuchets.

In order to hit the trebuchet, the projectile of the artillery must be parabolic.

“This angle should be about the same!”

Gervais muttered after adjusting the angle of the small steel cannon, clapped, and walked to the side, away from the small steel cannon There are about ten meters away.

“Remind again, everyone stay far away and cover your ears! I’m going to fire!”

The little nobles were curious and unconcerned when they heard Gervais’ words .

Gervais didn’t remind her anymore. Seeing Alice coming to her side, she covered her ears according to her reminder, so she laughed at her, and then opened her mouth to order Ike.

“Ike, fire the cannon!”

“Yes, sir!”

Ike immediately responded respectfully and took the one in Alec’s hand. torch , put the torch on the lead of the small steel gun!

His…

Boom!

With the rapid burning of the lead, under the attention of hundreds of small nobles, Gervais’s freshly baked small steel cannon finally released its first roar!

This cannon The sound was so shocking that even Gervais and the others covered their ears and felt a buzzing in their heads.

Those little aristocrats stepped back several steps at the moment when the small steel cannon exploded, their faces a little ugly.

The charge of this small steel cannon is worth several enhanced grenades! The momentum of the explosion can be imagined.

“It turns out that Viscount Gervais didn’t speak big words. Such a momentum must have caused great harm to the city, right?”

Lord at first count told everyone that Gervais had a plan Break through the city, so that everyone does not have to worry, everyone is skeptical.

But now some people believe it!

As the smoke slowly dissipated, a group of small nobles stretched their necks and moved towards the city in front of them.

With such a big momentum, it is more frightening than a large trebuchet, presumably the city wall should have suffered a lot of damage!

“???”

However, when everyone stared at the city wall and searched hard, they didn’t find even a trace of abnormality on the city wall.

The defenders on the city wall were vaguely visible, all pointing their fingers here, but there was no panic.

The little nobles just stood behind the artillery, and their sight was blocked by the rising smoke, but Gervais and Alice were standing on the side, but they could vaguely see that the cannonball should have flown over the city wall, It fell into Baiyan City!

“Cough! The angle is a bit high! Wait for me to lower it!”

Although Gervais’ gun was originally intended for calibration, he looked at the expectant eyes of those little nobles, and Gervais was a little embarrassed by the flashing beautiful eyes of his cheap wife.

This is a total shame! I hope the next shot can save the face of my transmigrator!

After the first gun was fired, Ike and the others quickly stepped forward, took the tools and started to clear the gun chamber, and after the gun chamber was cleared, they began to load the ammunition.

Gervais stepped forward and, when they were finished reloading, adjusted the angle of the cannon again.

“I’m going to hit it this time, or it’s not only a shame, but my gunpowder is precious!”

Gervais muttered silently, then quickly adjusted the angle of the shot again.

This time without Gervais’s reminder, a group of small nobles have already run far away, dozens of meters away from the small steel cannon.

Obviously, I learned the lesson I just learned, and at the same time I want to see what use this little steel cannon has except the loud noise and smoke.

“Boom!”

Boom!

With the flames spraying, thick smoke filled the air, and the small steel cannon fired again.

Bang!

Suddenly, before the echo of the rumbling sound of the small steel cannon had fallen, there was a place where stone chips flew and turned over on the city wall five more than a hundred meters away.

“Okay!”

Gervais said loudly, this blow actually hit the city wall accurately, and really destroyed a small trebuchet, finally saving him Many faces.

After the applause, Gervais silently wrote down the angle he had just adjusted.

“Ike, keep reloading!”

Gervais prepares to weigh in and clear the trebuchets on the city wall in turn.

The dam will be completed by noon, and the water level of the river in the distance can already be clearly seen.

Gervais plans to get rid of the dozens of trebuchets on the city wall before noon, and in the afternoon, he will be able to cross the river bed to carry out his siege plan.

Thanks for the reward of “Scholar Chasing the Wind”! ! !
