In Zhejiang, after a winter dry season, the peach blossom flood season has also passed.

In the fourth month of the lunar calendar, the Xin'an River is at its most abundant, and it generously irrigates the endless rice fields on both sides of the river from the weirs it flows through.

The river water is so clear and calm, which reminds people of the motto "The best is like water" in the Tao Te Ching, which makes people feel endless gratitude.

But this year, all the weirs have been blocked, and the Xin'an River water gifted by God is flowing downward in vain between the embankments on both sides.

Jiajing has set a five-year period, but there are good things above and results below. As soon as the imperial government's national policy of converting rice fields into mulberry fields was implemented, it brought disaster to the people of Zhejiang.

On the Xin'an River Embankment in Chun'an County, there were actually many soldiers and government officials standing with swords and guns. Hangzhou Magistrate Ma Ningyuan led his subordinates Chun'an Magistrate Chang Boxi, and Jiande Magistrate Zhang Zhiliang were enforcing the implementation.

The national policy of changing rice to mulberry.

A good thing that benefits the country and the people quickly turns into tyranny in the hands of local officials.

Fortunately, Jiajing had added insurance and was able to turn the deviated front of the car around in time.

Sure enough, a group of five riders on the embankment galloped towards the embankment.

As they galloped closer, many people could clearly see the big red tassel on the helmet of the leading rider, and the black-on-the-outside and red-on-the-back cape on the back of his shoulders flew backwards as he galloped.

"It's the Lord of the Town!"

An officer yelled and pulled the reins.

He recognized the man wearing third-grade armor as his immediate boss, the current commander-in-chief of Taizhou Town, Zhejiang Province, Qi Jiguang.

The five galloping horses were getting closer and closer, and the infantry soldiers on the embankment immediately ran forward and formed two neat rows on the embankment.

Qi Jiguang, who was on horseback, suddenly pulled the reins a few feet away from the two lines of infantry, and the five horses suddenly stopped in an orderly manner.

There was a "pop" sound.

The riding whip in Qi Jiguang's hand flashed across the leading officer's face like lightning, and a bright red blood mark immediately appeared on the officer's face.

After the officer was whipped hard, he stood up straighter.

At this time, another year has passed in the Southern Song Dynasty.

The Zhongnan Mountain base area already has many soldiers and generals. Not only Wang Chongyang is ready to try, but Yue Fei also wants to cause a big fight.

Jiajing received a million taels of silver, so he was naturally very generous. This time, he used weapons.

Artillery!!!

Speaking of hot weapons, the first thing that comes to mind during the Song Dynasty is Ling Zhen, nicknamed "Hangtian Lei". His ancestor lived in Yanling, east of Jingdao. He was good at making artillery, which could hit fourteen to five miles away.

Before he went to Liangshan, this person turned out to be the deputy gunner of the Tokyo Jiazhangku. Hu Yanzhuo attacked Liangshan and invited Ling Zhen to assist.

When Ling Zhen bombarded Liangshan, Wu Yong used a trick to capture Ruan Xiaoer alive in the water. Therefore, he surrendered to Liangshan and built large and small artillery specifically for Liangshan soldiers and horses. He ranked 52nd in Liangshan and served as the local auxiliary star.

After the recruitment, he followed the Liangshan army to fight in various places. He survived after conquering Fangla and was appointed by the imperial camp of the Gunpowder Bureau.

This is written in a novel and has no common sense at all.

Not to mention whether there were artillery in the Northern Song Dynasty, the effective range of the red cannon passed down to later generations was only six miles.

Fighting fourteen or five miles away? You can hit it with a hanging hair!

The Song Dynasty naturally did not have artillery in the modern sense. The Huihui artillery mastered by the Yuan Dynasty was extremely powerful for attacking cities and territories, but it was a lever-weighted trebuchet, extremely heavy and had no mobility at all.

As for the red cannon, the Jiajing Dynasty had not yet come out, and the Ming Dynasty only had the Tiger Crouching Cannon and the Franco Machine Cannon.

This time, most of the assistance was provided by these two weapons.

It was his first time having sex, so Jiajing naturally wanted to be there to give guidance.

Therefore, after Wang Chongyang let go of his mind, Jiajing Taoist came again.

"General Zhang, let's go watch a sex game!"

"General Ying, Chongyang Master wants to play cannon, let him learn..."

The winning general is Yue Yun, who is in his twenties. Over the past six months in Zhongnan Mountain, under Wang Chongyang's guidance, his martial arts has improved rapidly.

Yue Fei has always been clear about rewards and punishments, and treats his soldiers well. Therefore, letting the eldest son start from the grassroots level is not only an explanation to the soldiers, but also reflects the expectations of Yue Yun on a certain level.

When Zhang Xian led his troops into battle, Yue Yun would always be the first to charge into battle and kill the enemy, very bravely.

Zhang Xianjun often returned with great victories, so the soldiers in the army called Yue Yun "Yingguanren". It can be seen that the army in Yue Yun's place was always victorious, and Yue Yun was only 16 years old at that time.

"What kind of cannon did Master Chongyang shoot?" Yue Yun asked the warrior who reported the news.

"I don't know either, I just know that the cannon is dark, big and thick..."

Although the Song Dynasty did not have cannons, it did have explosives.

There is no iron shell for explosives, only bamboo tubes. The one-inch-thick and one-foot-long bamboo tubes are stuffed with black gunpowder, then the twister is pushed in, and finally the hole is filled with bamboo paper, and a large firecracker is ready.

Throwing it out with a catapult is naturally powerful.

On Zhongnan Mountain, all the generals of the Yue Family Army, large and small, arrived.

"Everyone, stand still, let's have sex!" Jiajing roared.

Boom!

After an earth-shattering bang in the barrel of the Tiger Crouching Cannon, the enemy wooden figures fell down in a row on the mountain a mile away.

In order to facilitate shooting, the cannon was placed in a fixed posture, much like a tiger squatting, hence the name tiger squat.

The Tiger Crouching Cannon is not very powerful. It is an early mortar style. It is a light artillery that mainly shoots in a straight direction. It is suitable for combat areas such as mountains, forests and paddy fields that hinder the mobility of artillery.

This is the most commonly used firearm in Qi Jiguang's army. This lightweight artillery has a thin barrel and a short range (about 500 meters). However, the slender barrel makes it more suitable for mountain combat. It is maneuverable and can be launched and fired at large elevation angles.

Equipped with a large number of grassroots troops, it is more advanced than European mortars of the same period.

"The total weight of the Tiger Crouching Cannon is 36 kilograms."

"Each shot can be loaded with 100 small lead bullets or pebbles weighing 5 taels, and a large lead bullet or boulder bullet weighing 30 taels is used to press the top. When fired, both large and small bullets fly out with a thunderous roar and extremely lethality.

The radiation range is very large, especially suitable for field battles..."

Soon, someone carried the knocked down wooden figures over.

"Hiss!"

"This cannon is so powerful!"

"The key is to be light..."

"If there are a hundred of these cannons, the Jurchens will not be afraid!"

The variety of gunpowder in the Ming Dynasty was already very rich, with more than 90 types of military gunpowder and actual formulas. Compared with the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the composition of gunpowder in the Ming Dynasty was more reasonable, the quality of gunpowder was further improved, and the combustion performance and explosive power also reached a high level.

This is the crushing of technology!

"The Tiger Crouching Cannon is only a light artillery, and its power is slightly insufficient."

"Go and pull up my Franco machine gun..."

The Folang machine can fire continuously and pops up like a fire snake. It is also called a rapid-fire cannon. It was introduced to China by the Portuguese at that time. In the Ming Dynasty, Portugal was called the Folang machine, so the gun was named Folang machine gun.

Although it is not as powerful as the red cannon, it can really be called a cannon.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

Three shots were fired in a row, and everyone looked at the rolling rocks falling in the distance, so shocked that they could not close their mouths.
