Chapter 479: Advice

With a bang, the mortar shells flew out, rolled up several times in the air with an arc visible to the naked eye, and then fell steadily towards the target.

The shells fell into a small mound of soil in the distance and exploded with a bang, exploding the mound of soil. The imitation of infantry and cavalry wooden signs around were blown upside down.

Wang Zhongzheng was frightened and waved his hand to greet Jinqian and surrounded the carriage.

An excited voice in the car shouted in a low voice: "Get out of my sight!"

Zhong Yi ran to Su You and said, "Report Cao Shuai, mortar, triple-base launch medicine, live ammunition test, target two hundred meters, destroy!"

Su You waved his hand: "Continue!"

A team of soldiers from the Tuan'an army pushed up a golden cannon, and the outer wall was polished so that it could reveal the figure. After installing the cannon stand, Zhong Yi returned to the observation position again, and reported the parameters, the soldiers began to shake the handle and adjust the muzzle.

After the sergeant's report was adjusted, Zhong Yi's eyes remained unfamiliar with the theodolite: "Nine-fire rapid fire, release!"

A soldier filled a copper gun into the bullet groove and opened the copper cap. Another soldier ignited the fire with a torch in his hand. With a "boom", the shells flew out, and a ball of mud and dust broke out on a mound further away.

Next, change the bullet and load it and ignite it again.

Every time it is fired, the barrel will retreat violently and then reset under the action of the steel spring reset machine.

The Bulleter is a selected strongman. After a long period of training, he is now very fast.

The ignition hand had no expression on his face, and the two exchanged passwords like a mechanical one.

Nine shells were shot in a blink of an eye. Except for the two shells deviated, they were corrected by Zhong Yi, and all seven shots were smashed on the mound three hundred meters away, blowing down the place with only one soil foundation.

The strong smell of gunpowder came out of the position, and the power of the cannon made everyone's face look like earth.

Although the horses were blocked in advance, many of them were now running around, and the imperial guards were scolding and controlling them.

Zhong Yi ran up again: "Report Cao Shuai, son-in-law gun, one pound of nitrified cotton charge, nine live ammunition rapid fire, three hundred meters medium-sized target, destroy!"

Su You waved his hand, "Continue!"

Next, the mother-child gun was fired slowly, and the charge was not changed. However, there was an extra procedure to tighten the bolt. This time, a large stone platform was hit in a very distant place, and a large corner of the platform flew away.

Finally, a big guy came up. The preparation time was very long. The soldiers loaded the medicine bag from the muzzle, then poked it to the bottom with a long pole, then carefully took out the fifteen-pound shell from the box, installed the impact fuze, and then carefully sent it into the gun barrel, and sent it to the bottom again with a special long pole.

Looking at such a huge cannon barrel and watching these careful operations, Wang Zhongzheng and Li Xian couldn't stand it anymore, their fingers trembled slightly, and they felt that the anus was a little tight.

Gao Guojiu was so nervous that he grabbed Su You's sleeve.

The soldiers hid again, opened the fire door on the cannon, pulled the rope, and the flintlock device fell.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise that was earth-shaking, and the muzzle was covered by gunpowder. Gao Guojiu shouted bitterly: "My mother is..." As soon as his legs were weak, he slipped out to the ground.

The shells made a short whistling sound, and they crossed a thousand meters away, pierced into the lower part of Shitaizhong, and then exploded inside.

"Boom!" The stones and earth were flying in the distance, and a huge stone platform target as big as a beacon viewing platform was blown into pieces.

The horse team that protected the horse was completely in chaos. Wang Zhongzheng controlled the mount while drawing a knife and shouting: "The whole team! Control the horse! I'll control the horse for me!"

When we regained control of the situation, we looked at the bombardment two miles away. A stream of smoke and dust had not yet dissipated and floated into a height of dozens of meters.

Su You helped Gao Guojiu, who was already half paralyzed, come to the carriage: "I have finished the demonstration, please give me a lecture."

There was no sound in the carriage.

Su You was a little confused: "Your Majesty?"

A hoarse voice in the car said, "Come up."

Su You got on the car, but saw Zhao Xu wearing a dark purple crane-patterned brocade robe with tears on his face.

It was difficult to salute in the car, so Su You had to bow: "Your Majesty..."

Zhao Xu murmured: "Five seasons lost their pictures, Kong Chi. Art ancestors created a country, and I want to punish Aiji..."

Su You continued: "...I have set up an inner palace to recruit soldiers. My great-grandson protects him, and I dare to forget my ambition."

Zhao Xu's eyes focused on the void far behind Su You: "Taizu made up his mind to open up 32 stakes of sealed stakes, and restored Youyun. Emperor Taizong conquered Liao for the second time, first won and then lost, and arrow wounds broke out repeatedly. Zhenzong forced the Liao people to establish the alliance of Chanyuan, and the annual monies increased year by year, and now it is 500,000 yuan! Shameful! Hateful!"

Su You said: "Your Majesty..."

Zhao Xu seemed to suddenly wake up and grabbed Su You's wrist: "Mingrun, with such a magical weapon, why are you afraid of your husband?! In addition to the Western Xia, Yanyun is restored, and great achievements are expected! You, my king and his ministers work together to overcome the foundation of our ancestors and re-exert the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties!"

"Your Majesty!" Su You yelled: "Wake up!"

Zhao Xu was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Su You was frightened by himself and quickly bowed and bowed: "Your Majesty, I am abrupt in front of you, I beg you to forgive me."

Zhao Xu said anxiously: "What? What I just said is not feasible?"

Su You sorted out his thoughts: "Your Majesty, do you still remember the curve chart I drew?"

Zhao Xu was stupid.

Su You said: "Your Majesty, if you want to win, you must be unbeaten first. If you want to go far, you must be close to your worries."

"The country is weak and enemies are everywhere. Three redundant and exhausted, and one hundred is not left. The rise of Shu has been in less than twenty years, and Shaanxi has been self-sufficient, less than two years later. There are still 500,000 troops in Western Xia, and the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom can mobilize millions!"

"Hengshan Mountain has not been taken, and the Qingtang has not been safe. The Yellow River has flooded, sweeping the plains, the city has ruined the hills, and the people have been drifted away. Jinghu Lake has miasma and ridges and seas are wilderness."

"The Liao people are intimidating, and the southern border is restless. There are rebellions in the country and eyeing them abroad."

"The people's tax has increased again and again, land and land mergers are fierce, materials are not flowing, and roads are not smooth."

"The only things that can be called peace in the Song Dynasty are Shu, the capital, and the Hangyang."

"The people in other places have not yet obtained food and clothing!"

"Your Majesty, I have never doubted that the curve will eventually flatten again, then look up, and finally move upwards with great momentum! But your Majesty, it's hard to return, we need time!"

"Shaanxi and Hebei, what is lost is a generation! How long does it take for a generation to recover? Twenty years! Twenty years!"

"Your Majesty, Gaolianghe, Qigou Pass, Haoshuichuan, Dingchuanzhai, and gambling over the great Song Dynasty's fortunes again and again, which was ruined by gambling again and again!"

"The equipment just now is sharp, but do you know the cost?! The largest cannon uses 2,000 kilograms of copper! Plus the labor cost, it is 20,000 jin!"

"The mother-in-law gun costs 5,000 guan. The mortar is better, more than one thousand guan. Once the ammunition is fired, ten guan will be gone."

"There are also Shenji guns, which are individual equipment, and a cost of 80 stakes per unit. If you want to use them, you will have to at least 2,000 people and a battalion. According to my estimate, the consumption per year will be as high as 400,000 stakes! As long as there are 10,000 stakes, I dare to pacify the north of the Mo Majesty for Your Majesty and overcome Youyan! But is your Majesty possible?!"

"Don't forget that the court's finances were not enough to make ends meet last year!"

"I offer a few military weapons to tell Your Majesty that we have great hope and the dawn is ahead. But we must be down-to-earth and take it step by step. The achievements may not lie in our generation, but will lie in our next generation, and the next generation! They will be grateful for the foundation we laid, thank us for the blood and sweat we have put in, and we will be sent to the altar as well!"

Looking at Zhao Xu's surprised expression, Su You suddenly reacted and changed his tone: "Uh, Your Majesty, Weichen, why is Weichen the same as Bao Heizi..."

Zhao Xu also reacted and chuckled: "It's rare to see Mingrun lose his composure. I thought Sima Guang had become younger."

Su You said sincerely: "Your Majesty, Mr. Han can be said to be the clearest person in the Song Dynasty today. He only needs to send a close minister to explain his interests and privately. How can Mr. Han not resign on his own initiative? Why should he let the censors follow the superior intentions and bite them all, leading to the situation several months ago? This is Your Majesty's mistake, and I must not refuse to advise you."

"Ouyang Xiu's mistake was compared with the late emperor Yu Hanxuan. Before he started the debate, he lost half of himself."

"Your Majesty, we are all young. Han Wei's memorial, please put His Majesty on the desk and be alert to yourself at all times."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, you want to cheer up, and you also have ministers who serve as a decree. Now, please give your Majesty a few military weapons first."

Zhao Xu was a little embarrassed just now, but now he smiled: "Look at what names you have obtained! You are still a tweed... Well, those two mortars used for attack are called Fulu Cannons, and the mother guns are called thunder cannons. As for the national weapon that defends, they are called General Zhenguo!"

Su You smiled and said, "Thank you for your name!"
