Full book book friend group: 540705836, screenshot of joining the group to verify the fan value.

......

When this gun was shot, there was no sign of shells at all. Only those targets were flying around, and then... the shells disappeared.

Damn it!

If this were in a dense formation, how much casualties and panic would this gun cause?

After waiting for a while, Zhu Fang, who had checked it, came over and reported, "Master, no damage was found."

Only the bronze cannon dares to test this double charge. If it were a cast iron cannon, it would have exploded under high chamber pressure just now.

Zhu Zhanji's eyes shining: "Brother Dehua, if this cannon is equipped everywhere, I will be in the Ming Dynasty..."

"Whatever, I'm not a treasure, as long as it's good for me, these are nothing."

Fang Xing's righteous and righteous saying had no intention of taking the opportunity to show his merits, which made Zhu Zhanji secretly admire him.

The students were on holiday, and Fang Xing, Xie Jin and others returned home together. They were about to walk to the inner courtyard, but Xie Jin stopped him.

"Dear, you give the students a holiday..."

Xie Jin looked like I couldn't bear to expose it, and Huang Zhong also endured it very hard.

Fang Xing said frankly: "I said I would not cherish myself if I was too tired, so I would naturally let them choose."

Xie Jin and Huang Zhong now ask questions when each other wakes up, and then analyze carefully to see what this guy wants to do.

But today Fang Xing suddenly gave the students a holiday and did not explain that the matter should be kept confidential. On the way, Xie Jin and Huang Zhong deconstructed his intention.

When the students returned home and told their families about the power of the cannon, everyone who should know knew soon knew.

...

Zhu Gaoxu caught a cold and felt dizzy, so he prepared to rest for a few days. But when he woke up, after hearing the news, he asked Fang Xing to enter the palace before dawn.

Fang Xing rubbed his eyes all the way to the East Palace, and as soon as he entered, he heard the sound of sneezing.

"Ah cut!"

Zhu Gaoxu sneezes. When he saw Fang wake up, he pointed at his head, then took the handkerchief and wiped his nose. Then he said comfortably: "I heard that what cannon Dehua built?"

Fang Xing was stunned and then said, "That's right, it's just that, it's only going to be built, there's only one."

Zhu Gaochi took a sip of hot water and blinked his eyes and said, "I heard that it was something that was created with the knowledge of Fangxue?"

Fang Xing narrowed his eyes and smiled, "It's..."

Zhu Gaochi smiled like Maitreya Buddha, and Fang Xing also laughed at him, making Liang Zhong confused.

...

"Your Majesty, I heard that Xing and Bo have built a weapon, which is very powerful. I congratulate you."

"Your Majesty, I heard that the thing is made of copper, but I don't know how much it costs. Can it be equipped with one piece of equipment in our Ming army?"

“…”

Zhu Di kept looking down, and most of the people who spoke were martial honors, and only a few civil officials expressed concerns about the cost and doubts about the authenticity of the artillery effect.

"Zhanji, tell me the power of the cannon." Zhu Di shouted out Zhu Zhanji with a expressionless face.

...

"Dhua, is it really so powerful?"

In the prince's uterus, Zhu Gaochi drank a bowl of soup and then asked with his forehead.

Fang Xing said calmly: "Your Highness, the range of the cannon is more than three hundred feet, and the blocker is invincible."

Zhu Gaochi was shocked. Although he had not learned Fang Xing's mathematics, he still knew simple arithmetic.

More than three hundred feet away, it is more than enough to penetrate the walls in the distance from him.

In order to defend against possible attacks, when building the wall, the distance between the attackers' bows and arrows and the time when they were rescued by the guards after they were rushing into the wall, so the location of the wall was determined.

"this……"

Zhu Gaochi asked about the weight and volume of the bronze cannon, then he felt relieved, and then asked about the power.

"Can the wall be penetrated?"

Fang Xing had some impression of the wall in the distance, and said, "It's no problem."

"That's how..."

...

"Three hundred feet."

After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, he stepped aside and let all the officials stare blankly.

Three hundred feet?

Lu Zhen felt that his bladder was a little suffocating. He learned about this last night, but there was another thing that made him even more worried.

——Fang Xue, this is something created using Fang Xue’s knowledge!

Zhu Di looked at the dazed official below and asked, "How do the Ministry of War think of such a powerful weapon?"

Jin Zhong came out and said, "Your Majesty, I think it should be built more and let the army use it as soon as possible."

"Where is the British Duke?"

Zhang Fu came out of the troupe and said, "This thing is a powerful weapon for my military and military, and it will flourish."

Both the Ministry of War and the military bosses agreed with this matter, and Zhu Di turned his attention to Hu Guang.

Hu Guang took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, this thing is of great use in battle, it is just copper..."

Before he finished speaking, Hu Guang felt a chill in his vest, and he thought of the large copper mine in Jiaozhi.

Fang Xing, did you do it on purpose?

"Your Majesty, I think that although this thing is profitable, it is too expensive after all, and this thing has not been verified on the battlefield... Is it too early?"

This was said by the Minister of Rites, with a sincere look on his face. After saying that, he also glanced at Xia Yuanji.

The Ministry of Revenue is of course qualified to speak, so Xia Yuanji came out and said, "Your Majesty, since this thing is of great use in the army, I dare not be stingy, so I should do my best to plan it. But can Jiaozhi's copper mine be sent to start as soon as possible, and... "

Xia Yuanji said with some confusion: "If you go through the copper and go on land, your Majesty, the coins you cast will probably lose money!"

There is so much supply of copper materials. If you want to cast a large batch of cannons, the coin will be reduced accordingly, which is not good news for the Ministry of Revenue.

The coin itself has costs. If the transportation costs are added, the value of Jiaozhi copper material will be greatly reduced immediately.

Originally, when there was not a lot of copper material, the shipping cost could be ignored. However, as soon as the matter of casting cannon did not give a copper plate to the Ministry of Revenue came out, Xia Yuanji felt that a piece of meat had been cut off.

But no matter how difficult it is, Xia Yuanji still agreed.

This is the overall view!

Zhu Di smiled with his beard and felt that although his Minister of Revenue was a little stingy, he had never been vague about major events.

When Hu Guang saw those martial merits smiling, a shadow suddenly floated in his heart, and a thought came out.

——Sea transportation!

That damn Fang Xing!

Don’t he know the risks of shipping?

Could that person be...because he was planning this matter long ago?

Hu Guang suddenly felt a little cold, but he thought it was wrong. Even if Fang Xing had been planning to continue the shipping, the large copper mine in Jiaozhi was discovered only after the completion of the canal.

Unless he can predict it in the future, this matter can only be a coincidence!

However, Fang Xue wanted to take this opportunity to get ashore and get involved in a joint venture with the military...

"Your Majesty, I think that the Tatars and Oirat in the north have become confrontation, and Jiaozhi in the south have been pacified. My Ming Dynasty should focus on rest and recuperation. Last time, Shangshu Xia said that the Ministry of Revenue was a little stretched, so why not slow down? You can also let the Tatars and Oirat fight with confidence..."

"If my Ming Dynasty built a large number of such bronze cannons at this time, Your Majesty, with the cunning of Arutai and the ruthlessness of the Oirats, would they... join forces?"

Hu Guang talked freely and had a very good demeanor. When others saw it, they had to praise him and he was indeed the prime minister.

"Your Majesty, when the Oirat and the Tatars were combined, it was better to be quiet than to be silent!"
