Da Qin: At the age of six, I beat Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 228 Li Si court?it doesn't mean anything
Wang Jian looked at Qin Mu with burning eyes, and then felt uneasy, ran over and grabbed Zulong's sleeve: "Brother Zhao, this cannon! Cannon! Must have!"

Zu Long shook his head: "What are you talking about? I can't hear you!"

The two yelled at each other for a while.

Qin Mu didn't care at all, and he couldn't hear it either!If Wang Jian danced in front of him for a while, he might be able to guess the meaning, but if he ran in front of Zulong, Qin Mu would definitely not know what was going on.

Of course, he was not idle, and waved someone to call the coachman over, ready to dig a hole again and adjust the angle of the muzzle.

The key problem is that the coachman can't actually hear it. Qin Mu made gestures for a long time before they understood what he meant, and started digging.

After Qin Mu told him to play this game, he went to look at the cannon that had just fired the first shell.

If there is no obvious deformation of the cannon after this launch, it means that at least the current cast steel is strong enough.

In his previous life, Qin Mu also heard that the strength of some steel is not enough, and the cannon made out of it will be deformed and cracked after being fired a few times.

Still, steel is strong, at least for now.Just after firing, there is still a little temperature left in the gun body, and the appearance has not changed at all!

This shows that there is no problem with the structure of the cannon, as long as the temperature drops slightly, it can be reloaded.

Qin Mu felt the temperature, and it took about two to three minutes before he could continue filling.This time is completely acceptable.

He waited a moment, and then began loading the barrel again, compacting it with a stick as he loaded it.

Later, when the gunpowder was almost loaded, his hearing was basically restored.

On the other side, Li Si had stopped crying a long time ago... because he was crying halfway, and suddenly felt that he heard his own crying...

Listen carefully again, Meng Yi and Wang Jian are discussing with each other why Lao Li is crying so sad...

Zu Long, on the other hand, had already seen through his thoughts, and looked at him with a half-smile...

Li Si suddenly felt that it seemed that it was meaningless to continue in this court... The feeling of social death made him wish he could turn back time and space, and then go back to just now, and slap the crying self twice!

Zulong walked slowly to Qin Mu's side, reached out and touched the gun barrel which was still warm.

"Mu'er, why is this cannon so powerful?"

Qin Mu was not prepared to explain so much: "This is mainly the power of gunpowder. As long as there is enough gunpowder, the power of the cannon can continue to increase."

"Gunpowder?" Zu Long looked at the black-gray powder in his hand: "Is this the kind of gunpowder?"

"That's right!" Qin Mu nodded, "This gunpowder ignites when exposed to fire! Afterwards, it can push the projectiles in the barrel and fly forward at high speed! Everything in front of the projectile will be shattered!"

If this kind of thing is used in a war, the scene... Zulong smiled and looked at the gunpowder in Qin Mu's hand.

"Ahem...you gunpowder, how can you change it..."

Qin Mu looked at him, how could he not know what was going on in his heart?It's just that this gunpowder is Pandora's magic box. Once it is opened, the consequences will be light, and it is almost to the extent that all human beings are buried together.

In particular, when gunpowder was actually invented, the population was already quite large, and even if there was a war with hot weapons, the damage would still be within an acceptable range.

If a war of that scale started in the era of Daqin, even if all the people of Daqin were dead, it would not be enough!
Therefore, this gunpowder must be in Qin Mu's own hands!
"Father, I know what you think, but have you ever thought about how harmful it would be if the gunpowder leaked out?"

Zulong was a little silent. In fact, with his eyes, he could tell at a glance that gunpowder must be something that can change the current war pattern!
Think about it, the other family is still relying on crowd tactics, but here, you only need a few people, one cannon, and in a short while, killing the enemy is useless!
In the future, there will be no need to feed so many troops, and the pressure of taxation and food will be gone, and the cannon will last for a long time after it is cast, and all the investment is just some gunpowder.

No matter how expensive this gunpowder is, can it be more expensive than the pensions of Daqin soldiers?Can it be more expensive than the original military salary of dozens of people?

Of course, he also saw the power of gunpowder with his own eyes.Although I don't quite understand the principle, the big iron ball weighing more than ten kilograms was obviously thrown three or four miles away by the power of gunpowder.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Qin Mu continued: "Father, I made this to fight the Huns for you. Their cavalry is flexible and mobile, our infantry can't keep up, so we can only be beaten from a distance .”

"But with gunpowder and cannons, we can attack the Huns' cavalry from a few miles away! In this way, the original advantage of the cavalry will be lost, and we can directly drive the Huns out, or even kill them all!"

"However, you have to know that although cannons can hit cavalry, cavalry can still move!"

"Cannon, what's the best thing to use for shooting? Things that won't move! If the cannon hits like this, the city wall will shake three times! If you fire a few cannons in a row, even the thickest city wall can make a hole for you. !"

"You said, if the formula of gunpowder is obtained by the Huns...then are there still any way out for those cities on the border of our Great Qin?"

Zu Long thought for a while, then nodded.He could also foresee what Qin Mu said.

If the gunpowder really fell into the hands of the Huns, then...it would really be a disaster.

"Mu'er...just, can you guarantee that this gunpowder technology will not leak out?"

Qin Mu smiled, for this matter, his confidence is still very high.

In his prison, there are basically people who can be trusted.Among other things, the disciples of the Mohist school who are in charge of preparing gunpowder are not only asking for this little thing. . . .

As long as Qin Mu can continue to have various inventions that are beyond the times, those Mohist disciples will not be willing to leave the prison garden, and naturally they will not betray him.

Even if someone really has a wrong mind, Jin Yiwei can teach them to be a new person in the first place.

Just like the three Mohist disciples who stole the steam engine last time, they were snatched back by Jin Yiwei in just half a day.

Furthermore, the temperament of the Mohist disciples is still worthy of trust.From the Warring States period to the present, they have the so-called strength of character in their bones.

This can be regarded as a benefit of the ancients. Most people have their own bottom line and their own persistence.

In the situation of Qin Mu's descendants, I am afraid that most people would not be able to achieve the situation of Mohist disciples...
