Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 641: Shenwei Zhenyuan Cannon!

Zhao Huan once discussed with Yue Fei about the coffin explosives, and actually conducted experiments.

The result is that it is not feasible.

In siege warfare, the defenders should focus on the behavior of digging tunnels.

The big urn under the city wall is the most effective way to prevent the attacker from digging a tunnel. Zhao Huan also went to the big urn at the foot of the city wall to listen to it.

There is a bit of noise during the day, but it is very clear about the movement underground, not to mention that it is late at night.

That kind of sound is a bit like the timbre of the bass, and it is easy to distinguish whether it is the sound of horseshoes or the sound of a shovel digging.

Coffin dynamite blowing down city walls or breaking down doors was terminated by practical test operations.

The reason why Zhao Huan asked the Song Dynasty's army to suspend the siege was because Guangbei's siege operation finally made a siege weapon worthy of the name.

There are a total of 24 vehicles in this car, Shenwei Dingyuan Cannon!
Of course, this name was chosen by the young inspector of Guangbei's siege operation. Although it was a bit of a secondary school, it was the first front-loading iron cannon in the Song Dynasty!

"The cannon fires, and its sound is like thunder. It can be heard hundreds of miles away, and the fire can penetrate more than half an acre of fire. With this sharp weapon, our Song Dynasty conquered the city without the need for the soldiers to break through the city desperately." It's over." Zhao Huan repeatedly looked at the cannon on the car with emotion.

This iron cannon is the latest invention of Song Guangbei's siege work. It is about 1.2 meters long and has a caliber of about 210 mm. There are lugs on both sides, which can adjust the design angle of the cannon.

Zhao Huan caressed a string of inscriptions, Jingkang four years Jiyuejiping made, which is similar to the production date behind, there is also a name of Chen Qing, which is the name of the master of the cannon.

The craftsman who invented the iron cannon was the first master to achieve pipe casting, and he was an all-copper pipe casting master. Zhao Huan remembered this name when he read Li Gang's memorial.

Zhao Ying looked at the name, looked at the elated officials, and said softly: "When this Chen Qing was making the cannon, the cannon exploded, and the head's face was shattered, and half of his face was cut off by iron tools. He left in less than half an hour."

"Dead?" Zhao Huan looked at Zhao Ying dumbfounded!

Zhao Huan looked at the mighty cannon a little absent-mindedly, glanced at Zhao Ying suspiciously, and only when he was sure that he was not joking, he put down his hand a little lonely.

He looked at Chen Qing's name and said, "The family members will be compensated according to the pensions set at the beginning. My Song Dynasty hero, with this sharp weapon, how many good sons can be saved when I attack the city and conquer the territory? How many families can be spared?" Will it fall apart?"

"Ask Li Gang, a senior craftsman who is extensively prepared for siege work, if he dies for the country, is there any other compensation?"

Zhao Ying took out a notebook from his wide sleeve, flipped through it for a long time and said, "According to the compensation method formulated by the government, it does not specifically involve the Guangbei Siege Operation, the Military Weapons Academy, and the Bow Academy."

"They are paid as ordinary soldiers who died in battle."

Zhao Huan asked suspiciously: "Fifty guan?"

Zhao Ying nodded and said, "Fifty Guan."

"It's too cheap." Zhao Huan once again looked at the cannon standing majestically on the car in front of him. In less than three days, this cannon can be sent to the front line, letting out its roar!
The deafening roar will blow the horn to destroy the Liaodong Jinren!

"Since ancient times, we have had people who worked hard, those who worked hard, those who pleaded for the people, and those who sacrificed their lives to seek the law... Although it is the so-called official history that is equivalent to the genealogy of emperors and generals, it often conceals We cannot live without their brilliance, this is the backbone of China."

Zhao Huan put his hand down and said, "Zhao Ying, please send a message to Li Gang to see if you can make a regulation. Is there a higher pension for this kind of people who died for the country, and the national funds can't afford it?" If so, can you give me some special treatment like attending Yingtian Academy for your sons and daughters?"

"People just leave in such a dry manner, I can't bear it."

Zhao Ying bowed her head and said loudly: "The official's heart is benevolent, and the minister is looking forward to it, crying like rain!"

"Hey! Stop sycophanting." Zhao Huan once again thought about the mighty cannon in front of him.

This thing is reliable!
Although it is a muzzle-loading gun, it is also artillery!Isn't it better than the tribulus cannon that hits by fate?
The purpose of Zhao Ying speaking out about Chen Qing's death at this time was to bring some blessings to Chen Qing's family at the official's house.

Lehu, lazy people, beggar households, servants, companions, Danhu, prostitutes, official prostitutes, and military households are all humble.

Zhao Ying came from a clan's family, but his family fell into decline and became an eunuch. In fact, an eunuch is also a lowly family.

Fanlou raises many tortoises, and they are also eunuchs.

In the Song Dynasty, the style of emphasizing literature over martial arts flourished, and even artisans who were one of the scholars, farmers, businessmen, and craftsmen were treated as lowly.

Zhao Ying, who is also from a humble family, wondered if he could subsidize Chen Qing's family with the benevolence of the officials.

After Chen Qing's death, when his family received the [-] guan, their emotions were very stable. The family officer who reported back said that Chen Qing's family even expressed some joy.

The government's pension policy requires internal funds to be paid, and the relatives and relatives will naturally go there in person. Although it will take some time, the pensions are guaranteed to be in the hands of these family members.

At present, the official system is still a mess. The money was distributed to the officials, and it was deducted layer by layer. In the hands of their family members, I am afraid that it will not be saved.

After hearing the report from the marriage officer, Zhao Ying also knew that fifty pennies was a huge fortune for their family, but when the man in the family is gone, life will always become difficult.

As a result, the officials not only planned to give Chen Qing more pensions, but also prepared to go a step further. By extension, not only Chen Qing's family would benefit, but also the craftsmen of the world.

Zhao Huan thought for a while and said: "All those who have craftsmen should formulate a charter and formulate subsidy standards according to the level, and let Li Gang and Dali Temple Secretary make this matter finalized."

Zhao Huan tried to move the cannon in front of him, but after trying twice, he gave up. The cannon alone hit more than half a ton, so he should not be overwhelmed.

"Zhao Ying, come and try." Zhao Huan glanced at Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying is undoubtedly a martial arts master, and Zhao Huan also intends to open his eyes and see the methods of a real martial arts master!
Zhao Ying looked at the cannon in front of her, then glanced at her hands suspiciously and said, "Officials, this thing weighs at least five or six hundred catties, although I know how to do it, but it's beyond my strength to move it. "

"Really can't move?" Zhao Huan asked suspiciously.

"That's for sure. No one in this world can move it. This is five or six hundred catties of copper." Zhao Ying still shook her head again and again.

"Can't Yue Fei?" Zhao Huan looked at the cannon suspiciously and asked.

Zhao Ying thought for a while and said, "That's not good."

　Thanks to "another novice" for the reward, thank you for your support.
