"Widow try the musket again." King Qin continued.

Shangwen took one from the craftsman behind it, which had just been built. This gun is slightly more refined than the first one. It seems that the craftsmen have already begun to wonder how to do it.

Shangwen quickly loaded the bullet. Pass it to Queen Qin and open the fire door for King Qin.

"My lord, so you can shoot." Shang Wen said.

"Oh. I'll give it a try." King Qin picked up the musket. aim. Shoot at the target fifty steps away.

"Bang." The musket fired. After the gunpowder dissipated, Shang Wen could see where the bullet hit, and the position where the target was down was almost the same as where he first shot. This time I used projectiles, so the effect is still not very obvious.

"Come on, you guys have a try too." King Qin turned his head and said to the general who was standing aside.

"Here," the generals replied.

The first person who came up was Wang Ben, Wang Jian's son. Shangwen took the musket and filled it with ammunition. Wang Ben watched carefully from the side. then. Shangwen handed it to Wang Ben and told him to open the fire door and he could shoot. Wang Ben nodded.

Opening the fire door, Wang Ben raised his gun and shot.

There was a "bang" gunshot. The projectile flew out. Hit the target.

Then Wang Ben loaded it himself. Shang Wen watched carefully from the side. After seeing Wang Ben loading correctly, he nodded. Wang Ben nodded. Raise the gun again and shoot.

Next, other generals also started shooting. And some people began to gather around the artillery. Since there is only one artillery mounted on the carriage, that artillery has a lot of people. It was the civilian officials who gathered in artillery placed on the mound. Those craftsmen who have learned the power of muskets and artillery have become gunners, standing by and teaching.

King Qin saw that Wang Ben had finished his gun test. Then he asked: "How do you feel?"

"Back to the king, this musket is very powerful, and the last general just checked it. It can penetrate such a thick wooden board, which is only available for long-range crossbows. It is difficult for ordinary crossbows to achieve such an effect." Wang Ben gestured.

"However, this musket still has some shortcomings." Wang Ben said.

"Oh. Come and listen." King Qin said.

"First of all, the distance of the musket. It is in a very awkward position." As soon as Wang Ben came up, he pointed out some problems with the current musket.

"The firing range of a musket is longer than that of a spear and a sword. Moreover, the killing effect is better. But compared with the long-range crossbow. But it is a little worse. Such a distance seems very deadly, after all, bows and arrows. Once a bow and arrow, the men and horses equipped with muskets will suffer."

"If it is equipped with artillery. Then say another thing. If the artillery can knock down those archers in time, you can say another thing. But from the situation just used. Artillery is more suitable for siege, but it is used for shooting those who are running. The archer in China, I'm afraid..." Wang Ben pointed out the current status quo of the musket sharply. In fact, this question is very simple. That is, there is a very large spatial distance between artillery and musket. This distance happens to be within the range of the artillery attack, but it cannot be cleared in time. The distance of the musket is out of reach. In this way, this vacuum zone. It gave the ancient archers a chance to take advantage of the loopholes. Shangwen still has a clear understanding of this situation. After all, the current musket is still used. Could it be that the Qin Army soldiers platoon like Napoleon rushed forward, if the opponent is equipped with a large number of archers. The situation is very bad.

"Then you have any solution." King Qin asked after hearing what Wang Ben said.

"This, there are still some difficulties. First of all, the loading of the musket is very troublesome. It needs to be equipped with soldiers for close combat, but also with protective shield soldiers. In this way, the formation of the team is more chaotic. Good solution." Wang Ben said with a fist.

"En." King Qin nodded and said.

"Mr. Qin, there is a solution, it is better to take a look at Mr. Qin's improved musket first." King Qin said.

"Oh, Mr. Qin, is there a more powerful gun?" Wang Ben asked.

"This, I just improved the shape of the bullet. Just like the cannonball over there. It uses a streamlined shape." Shang Wen said.

"Oh. Is there a mystery in this?" Wang Ben asked.

"Yes, if it is streamlined, it will fly farther than a spherical projectile. The range of the gun will naturally increase." Shang Wen said.

"I have ordered people to build the bullets for the musket. I guess it won't take long before they can be used." Shang Wen continued.

"Oh. That's it." Wang Ben said.

"The widow sees that you are interested in the gun, the artillery. Let's go. The widow will order you, choose five thousand sergeants, form a gun team and an artillery team, and prepare for my Daqin's future to equip this weapon. What do you think? "Qin Wang looked at Wang Ben and said.

"The final general is willing to take his orders." Wang Ben bowed his fists on one knee.

"Get up. Follow Mr. Qin to see this arsenal. Find out about the situation. Go." King Qin said.

"Here." Wang Ben and Shang Wen agreed. Then Shang Wen led Wang Ben to learn about the artillery.

at this time. The bullets of the musket have been cast. Waiting to cool down. Shangwen took Wang Ben to understand the appearance of some bullets. Originally, there are still some technically those medicines overcome. Wang Ben listened carefully to Shangwen's explanation without saying a word.

Shang Wen also explained the principles of some muskets by the way. This is to prepare for how to maintain the firearms after the establishment of the firearms team in the future.·······

At the same time, the 20,000 Hu people who evacuated quickly dispersed into scattered teams and escaped separately from the Great Wall of Yan Kingdom. Wang Jian's army waiting outside the Great Wall only eliminated a few very weak teams. The rest of the Hu people fled from other places.

This situation makes Wang Jian very troublesome. Because Wang Jian's army is like a huge cat. And the Huren who scattered and escaped from the Great Wall are like mice. Cats can handle one or two, but a lot of them sprang up all at once. The cat can do nothing. And the duration is very short. There is no time to react at all. Wang Jian felt that things were a little bad. Quickly ordered people to organize a team to pursue. The range of pursuit is strictly controlled within one hundred miles. Encounter complex terrain, do not want to fight, quickly evacuate. At the same time, Wang Jian immediately issued a Matthew book to Meng Tian, ​​who swept the Hu people tribe, and King Qin, who was far away in Xianyang. Wang Jian's army was stationed in place. Continue to wait for the next instructions. And Wang Jian carefully looked at the situation of his army.
