Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

"No, the ministers obey the holy message. "

Wang Li and other ministers nodded hurriedly.

The ministers who can sit in this position are basically old fritters, and they have a lot of experience in the court, and their ability to observe words and colors is even more first-class.

Now that Ying Zhengdu has shown this expression, it shows that he has made up his mind.

If at this time, a certain minister did not know the holy will and mentioned the matter of expediting the expansion of the firearms army again, maybe Yingzheng was above the court at that time, and in order to maintain his image of being good at accepting advice and listening to all directions, he would not be the first to do anything to this courtier.

But in fact, Ying Zheng will definitely be very disgusted with him in his heart, if this courtier has not made any mistakes in the future, then it is okay, Ying Zheng will at most find a reason to let him return to his hometown.

"Six-Seven-Three" is just like Feng Quji, who spoke privately at the beginning, and was forced to retire because of this.

However, this is only on the basis that he did not make many mistakes later, if this courtier made mistakes later, it would be miserable, at least he would be dragged to build a railway or go to the Suez Canal to work as a coolie, or at worst he would be directly and never used!

The court has always been frightened, and if you don't know how to observe the emperor's expression and attitude, it is basically difficult to gain a foothold in the court.

Even as a veteran minister of the Four Dynasties, the supreme father of the Great Qin Unification of the Six Kingdoms, and even Wang Jian who was treated by elders in Fusu, he would never dare to think highly of himself above the court, relying on the old and selling the old.

On the contrary, he usually looks like a big grin, but in fact he is well versed in the way of kings and ministers, whether he is acting or talking step by step, and never involved in major disputes.

Even Wang Jian with such a high status is still like this, how dare others not be cautious.

"Thank you for your trust. "

"Actually, instead of focusing on the expansion of the firearms battalion, we should turn our attention to other areas for the time being. "

Fusu said with a smile.

"Shift your attention to other things? It seems that Fusu, you have a new idea, tell us about it. "

Hearing Fusu say this, Yingzheng's curiosity was immediately hooked.

"I don't know if my father and the ministers still remember, in addition to the throwing firearms used in the firearms battalion today, I also displayed another kind of artillery made of bronze?"

Fusu said, looking around.

"I naturally have an impression of this, a bronze vessel that looks stupid and stupid can unleash such a destructive force, it is difficult for me not to be impressed. "

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

The ministers of the court and the central government also nodded their heads, indicating that they still remembered this.

As soon as the cannon came out, the terrifying power instantly blasted a huge pit out of the training ground, and the destructive power was simply a real shaking of the earth!

"What my father said is right, and this is exactly what my son wants to say. "

"Because of the different content of sulfur and gunpowder, artillery is much more powerful than firearms, and if the power of a firearm can easily handle ten heavily armed soldiers, then a single cannon can handle the attack of hundreds or thousands of enemy soldiers at the same time, and even a single cannon is enough to hold an entire city. "

"And in terms of range, artillery is also much stronger than firearms, after all, firearms are only a small weapon, its range is all about the strength of the soldier who threw the firearm, and the artillery is fired with the help of the hot energy air column in the barrel after igniting the lead, how can manpower be compared with steam kinetic energy, and the range of artillery is naturally not comparable to firearms. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"There have been ministers who have mentioned the use of firearms to storm the city and blow up the enemy's walls, but in fact, artillery is the real siege weapon. "

"Not only does artillery have a much longer range than catapults, but the destructive power it causes is enough to easily destroy walls that use clay as a stitching agent, so to speak, as long as you have a cannon, then even if the enemy's city gate is high, the artillery shells are still as brittle as tissue paper, one shot does not work, two shots, two shots do not work, three shots. "

"And since the artillery can easily blow through the city wall, not to mention the flesh and blood of the enemy soldiers, as long as a random shell explodes in the enemy army, it will definitely be mournful and countless casualties, but all the enemy soldiers who are affected will not die and have to be crippled, which is an effect that firearms can never achieve.0"

"Such a sharp weapon of war will definitely bring great help to our Great Qin in the future expansion of territory and foreign wars. "

"And in addition to the strong offensive ability, the defensive ability of the artillery is even more powerful, with the ultra-long range and terrifying breaking power, the enemy has not been able to get close to the flesh and blood. “[]

"If these cannons can be placed on the walls of the various counties and counties of our Great Qin, then as long as the enemy dares to attack, the shells in this artillery will definitely be able to make them unable to eat and walk around, and the safety factor of our Great Qin will naturally be greatly improved. "

"In addition, the most important thing is that because the shells of artillery are powerful enough, it is not necessary to hoard a sufficient number like firearms to form objective combat effectiveness, and a piece of artillery generally only needs five to ten shells to be sufficient, because with the current strength of the armies of other countries, after firing five to ten shells from each artillery, I am afraid that the whole line has collapsed. "

"These five to ten shells are generally stored in special wooden boxes, which can not only keep them dry, improve the durability of artillery shells, but also reduce vibration and avoid explosions outside the shells, and firearms because of their small size, there is no way to use this wooden box method to store, so the safety of artillery is much stronger than that of firearms. "

Fusu smiled and introduced the artillery to Yingzheng and the ministers. 4.9

"I had only seen one demonstration of Fusu before, so I only had a rough idea that this cannon was very powerful, but I didn't expect it to have so many advantages. "

"No wonder you say that all the attention paid to the expansion of the firearms battalion is to the development of artillery, and now it seems that more attention should be paid to this kind of sharp weapon for conquering the city, and it should also be vigorously supported. "

Ying Zheng was very surprised, obviously very excited by the artillery introduced by Fusu.

Although catapults were also very destructive to the city walls, they were still dwarfed by artillery.

And like firearms, catapults are far inferior to artillery in terms of range, and catapults are too bulky, which is extremely inconvenient to carry with the army in peacetime, and is not conducive to the efficiency of rapid marches.
