Chapter 62
After these days of hard work, the first cannon was finally cast. Yang Yichuan was very pleased. When the time came, he pulled up a few cannons and directly bombarded Xifeng Village.Easy to defend but difficult to attack?nonexistent.If one shot is not enough, then two more shots, if one shot is not enough, then two more shots.

Standing in front of Yang Yichuan, Gao Shen was very anxious. Although the cannon was made, he didn't know whether it could be used or not.Yang Yichuan still had a little impression of this sophistication, and he was the representative of the first iron-making personnel recruited.The ironware needed for those air-conditioning refrigerators are all made by Gaoshen.

Therefore, when it was necessary to build military weapons such as cannons, the first thing Yang Yichuan thought of was Gao Shen, and he still trusted Gao Shen very much.

"Your Highness, look at this cannon."

"It looks pretty good. Let's take it outside the city and give it a try tomorrow morning." Yang Yichuan touched the iron cannon. Although it was not cold, this cannon would eventually kill many people, which made Yang Yichuan a little unbearable. .

"Hey, peace, after all, is based on the premise that you are strong enough." Yang Yichuan is not a pedantic person, and he knows the lessons of history. Of course, he also knows that he is not a saint, but he can't be a villain either.

"Yes, Your Highness, should we wait for tomorrow's success in casting, or should we continue to speed up manufacturing?"

"Let's stop for a day first. You have been busy for so many days, so take it as a vacation."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"This is what you deserve. There will be rewards when you succeed tomorrow. Work hard, these will be the sharp weapons for defending the country and driving away invading enemies in the future."

"Yes." Gao Shen was extremely excited, he deserved this credit and honor.

……

After the end here, Yang Yichuan sent someone to the city guard camp to inform Lin Tu.The current city guard army camp is divided into the city guard army and the Xihe army. The city guard army mainly aims at guarding the city gate and patrolling, and they will also train frequently.The Xihe army has mainly trained at this stage, and will also guard the city gate or patrol.

Early the next morning, Yang Yichuan led people out of the west city gate, while the Xihe Army led by Lin Tu stood neatly outside the city gate.The others are no strangers to it. The Xihe army has been pulled out of the city for training twice, and this time it is probably the same.

The difference is that there is something like a car, which is also covered with cloth, so the city guards cannot see what it is.But it was still early, and not many people came out to take action.

"Well, it's not bad." Yang Yichuan couldn't help sighing as he looked at the neat team.Although it is still a lot worse than the team in my impression, it has already taken shape.

"The equipment of the Xihe Army is really bad. At that time, I will have people make clothes like mine as military uniforms." Yang Yichuan said of course it is short-sleeved, although his body is a bit loose, and the fabric is not very elastic. Resilience, though, is to live with it.As for the trousers on the lower body, they are also cropped trousers, all sewn by Liuli, using high-quality fabrics.As for the shoes, it was Yang Yichuan's most helpless place, he couldn't think of any way to make comfortable sandals.

Wooden slippers are absolutely impossible, so we can only rely on cloth and leather, and the slippers we made are acceptable, which is also thanks to Liuli.

"Let's go." Yang Yichuan said casually to Lin Tu, and the Xihe army set off. Except for the few people who escorted the cannon in front, the other people's team was still orderly.Yang Yichuan was dressed in this attire, followed by a group of personal guards, completely a playboy, out to play.

"We still need sunglasses." Yang Yichuan's glass products have now made telescopes, but sunglasses are still a bit early.This time Yang Yichuan came out and brought a few telescopes with him and handed them to the guards behind him to take with them.

When we arrived at the place, it was already some distance away from Xihe City, and there were no other villages and towns around.There is also a large open space here, which is a good place.

"Well, let's just go here." Yang Yichuan thought this place was okay and it would be really good to experiment here.

"Stop." Lin Tu immediately stopped the team in front.

Yang Yichuan asked solemnly, "Is everyone ready?"

"Your Highness, you have already explained yesterday, and you are ready. Those in the artillery squad have already practiced this procedure several times." This is indeed a dangerous job, but Yang Yichuan thinks it should not be so difficult It will explode and injure everyone.Seeing that the iron cannon seemed quite strong, Yang Yichuan could only comfort himself.

"The artillery squad, come out."

"arrive."

Yang Yichuan looked at the few people who came out. They were all not too old, probably less than 20 years old. They were full of vigor and fearless of life and death.

"You, artillery squad, are doing well. Whether this experiment is successful or not, you are all heroes, and your names will be engraved on the monument in Xicheng District."

"For the country, for Xihe." The five people who stood up from the artillery squad replied decisively, which made Yang Yichuan feel a little excited.

"A few of you come here, first adjust the direction and stabilize the gun mount. Load gunpowder and shells." Yang Yichuan casually directed the Xihe army next to him.

Yang Yichuan gave the person who lit the fire, that is, Zhou Hu, a lot of precautions, "You first stuff cotton wool in your ears, and when the time comes, when you see the flag waving down, you use a torch to light the fire, and wait until the fire wire is ignited." , you run a little farther and cover your ears."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Yang Yichuan and Lin Tu led the Xihe army guards 30 meters away and looked at Zhou Hu holding a torch in front of him. This moment will definitely be remembered by history.

Although Zhou Hu has no culture, he also has some courage.But after hearing so much from Yang Yichuan, he also guessed that this was a dangerous job.However, since they have all joined the army and become soldiers, there is no reason to be afraid of death.

"This is just to light a fire. It's not a fight with the enemy. It's not a big problem." Zhou Hu was now standing facing Yang Yichuan and others. Yang Yichuan nodded, and Lin Tu motioned to the flag bearer to wave the flag down.

Zhou Hu turned around resolutely, came to the cannon, and saw the line of fire above it.Swallowing, lit the wire with a torch, then according to Yang Yichuan's request, threw away the torch, covered his ears and ran towards Yang Yichuan.

Yang Yichuan and Lin Tu were observing all this with binoculars. Lin Tu was already indifferent to all this and was used to it long ago.Watching Zhou Hu light the fire through the binoculars, and then waiting for the next movement.

There was an earth-shattering cannon blast. Although Yang Yichuan and others were already far away from the cannon, they still felt that the sound was like thunder and powerful.Just hearing the sound made them feel unstoppable. Sure enough, Yang Yichuan and Lin Tu stared at the direction of the cannon strike.

Although it was expected to hit a small slope in the distance, there was some deviation, but the problem was not serious. The shell caused huge damage to the place where it was hit.

Although Lin Tu could only take a rough look with a telescope, he also saw the scene. The power of this cannon was really enormous.The most important thing is the distance, which is much farther than the distance that an archer can shoot.

"What if, what if we use this cannon to attack the Beiyuan people?" Lin Tu suddenly had such a thought, and it was out of control.This kind of powerful weapon, this kind of weapon beyond the times, is unimaginable.

Lin Tu felt that his tongue was a little dry, such power, Lin Tu absolutely couldn't stop it.Even an innate martial artist can react, but he can't stop it.If you run away, you may not be able to escape.The speed of this cannonball is also extremely fast. "Your Highness, this, this artillery."

"This is the Dawei cannon. It is a sharp weapon for defending Dawei in the future, and even expanding the territory for Dawei." Yang Yichuan also felt much more relaxed, and finally succeeded.At this moment, Yang Yichuan can be said to be fearless. If it weren't for the fact that there is only one artillery now and the training is not enough, Yang Yichuan might take the Xihe army to clear Xifengzhai the next day.

People in Xihe City still felt the loud noise. After all, it was a relatively quiet time in the early morning, and the thunder on the ground caused a lot of panic.However, after a loud noise, there was no other movement, which made the people calm down.

 Please support, thank you very much.
