The power of the artillery exceeded the imagination of Ye Xiaochuan and the two inventors.
To be precise, the power of black powder was beyond their imagination.
Ye Xiaochuan thought that artillery was just a large musket, but it turned out that he was wrong.
The amount of black powder loaded in the artillery is fifteen times that of the musket, but its power is definitely more than thirty times that of the musket, or even higher.
In the past, mortals in the world had similar heavy weapons, which were catapults, but the projection distance of catapults was not far, only three to four hundred feet.
Under the impact of the black powder explosion, a solid iron ball shell weighing several dozen kilograms can reach a range of nearly a thousand feet, which is about three times that of a catapult.
Moreover, the iron balls ejected from the artillery are very fast.
The faster the speed, the greater the lethality.
The solid shells hit the Five Elements Hall, punching more than a dozen large holes in the hard walls of the Five Elements Gate Hall, and even destroyed three thick stone pillars.
Such a huge destructive power is enough to change the pattern of war in the past tens of millions of years.
After firing seventeen of the twenty solid iron ball cannonballs, Ye Xiaochuan asked the two women to stop.
In the eyes of the two girls who were reluctant to leave, Ye Xiaochuan reloaded the cannon into the empty bracelet.
Also loaded in were the remaining three iron ball cannonballs and the drawings designed by Xiao Qi.
This thing is of great use, and the top priority now is to quickly mass-produce artillery and muskets.
The first thing Ye Xiaochuan thought of was the five tribes in southern Xinjiang and the Kingdom of Heavenly Girl.
They hold the secret recipe of black gunpowder, and the black gunpowder they developed is much more powerful than the black gunpowder imitated by the imperial court.
However, Ye Xiaochuan thought over and over again and decided to unite the five tribes in southern Xinjiang and the Tiannu Kingdom to secretly build two secret weapons, muskets and artillery, to deal with the catastrophe.
In fact, if you want to mass-produce muskets and artillery, the best candidate is the imperial court.
As long as the drawings designed by Xiaoqi are handed over to the court, the court can mobilize the most skilled craftsmen to complete it in the shortest time.
The reason why Ye Xiaochuan did not hand it over to the imperial court was because the current situation in China was very dangerous.
If Niangziguan and Shanhaiguan cannot be defended for a few months, then China will become a hell on earth.
Making muskets and artillery requires an absolutely safe place.
In addition, a large amount of iron and bronze are also needed.
The Heavenly Lady Kingdom is located in the Kunlun Wonderland, where the catastrophe cannot be affected, and can provide a safe and confidential environment for the production of muskets and artillery.
There are countless copper and iron mines in the mountains of Southern Xinjiang. However, Southern Xinjiang is remote and sparsely populated, so no one is willing to develop the copper and iron mines in Southern Xinjiang.
Ye Xiaochuan plans to let the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang produce copper and iron, and the Tiannu Kingdom will be responsible for the research, development and production.
If everything goes well, according to Ye Xiaochuan's idea, at least thousands of artillery pieces and hundreds of thousands of muskets can be produced in one year.
However, Zhan Ying must be notified of this matter.
Zhan Ying must know this in advance so that he can study how to use these two new arms to maximize the power of muskets and artillery.
After Ye Xiaochuan bombarded the Five Elements Hall, he left with great satisfaction.
Before leaving, he also said to Ishikawa: "Please tell Yamashita Naosuke, considering that I worked with him before, I don't want to embarrass him.
But please also ask him to give the victim a way to survive and not to kill others.
Cangyun Sect can make your Five Elements Sect enter the Middle Earth and establish a sect, and I, Ye Xiaochuan, can also make your Five Elements Sect disappear from the Middle Earth."
These were the last words left by Ye Xiaochuan.
Countless disciples of the Five Elements Sect just watched helplessly as the man who had humiliated the sect left in a swaggering manner.
After Ye Xiaochuan left, Ye Xiaochuan's last words were immediately transmitted to Zhishu at the foot of Cangyun Mountain.
Hearing Ye Xiaochuan's threatening words, Shanxia fell down in cold sweat.
Meihezi also gritted his teeth.
However, while Mihezi was angry, she also felt a little regretful.
I regret why I didn’t kill Ye Xiaochuan back then!
Ye Xiaochuan came and left quickly.
When the group of people returned to Cangyun Mountain, it was not dark yet.
After arriving at Cangyun, everyone divided into two groups.
Yun Qiyou, Gui Yatou, and Xiao Qi went to Yuanshui Xiaozhu.
Ye Xiaochuan, Xuan Ying, and Yao Xiaofu went to the courtyard where Zui Taoist lived.
It has been two days since the Bamboo Forest Alliance ended, and Cangyun Sect has not issued any announcement to the outside world. It is estimated that the big bosses are still holding small meetings to discuss some details.
Ye Xiaochuan's two goals for coming to Cangyun for the meeting this time have been achieved, and there is also an unexpected harvest of muskets and artillery.
He does not plan to continue attending small meetings with Yu Jizi, Guan Shaoqin, and Master Kongyuan.
He left this world before the end of the month and entered the sea of forgetfulness.
It is right to leave early and come back early. The longer you delay, the more detrimental it will be to the world.
Today is already the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month, and there are still five or six days until the end of the month.
During these five or six days, he needed to do a lot of things.
In addition to muskets and artillery, he also had to deal with the impending civil strife within Xuantian Sect, so he had no time to spend all day meeting with Yu Jizi and others in the house.
Before Ye Xiaochuan and others entered Samsara Peak, Yu Jizi had already received the news.
Just as Ye Xiaochuan guessed, in Yu Jizi's study, more than a dozen sect leaders were having a small meeting. They had discussed various details of how to deal with the Pangu clan today, but as for when Ye Xiaochuan would leave for the Sea of Forgetfulness,
And Ye Xiaochuan said in the bamboo forest that after he left, Gui Xuanzong followed Tuoba Yu's command during the war.
But they couldn't make a decision, they were all waiting for Ye Xiaochuan.
Ye Xiaochuan didn't know that these big guys were waiting for him. He was walking on the mountainside of Samsara Peak. All the Cangyun Sect disciples and foreign disciples who passed by looked at each other in shock when they saw Ye Xiaochuan's swaggering appearance on Samsara Peak.
This is such a familiar scene.
Unfortunately, this scene has not happened for more than ten years.
"Look! That's Ye Xiaochuan! He...he's actually here too!"
"How is it possible! How could he be in Cangyun!"
"I'm not dazzled! Ye Xiaochuan..."
"Ye Xiaochuan..."
"Ye Xiaochuan..."
In the evening, there were many people on the mountainside path. As soon as Ye Xiaochuan appeared, he immediately became the focus of everyone.
As for the big Sumeru Xuanying and the quasi-Sumi demon boy beside him, they seemed to have turned into transparent air.
The Bamboo Forest Meeting is very secretive. Most Cangyun disciples know that many sect leaders have come to Cangyun to discuss matters recently, but they do not know that a meeting has been held in the Bamboo Forest a few days ago.
What's more, they didn't know that the current leader of Gui Xuan Sect and the former abandoned disciple of Cangyun Ye Xiaochuan, their old acquaintances, were also here.
At noon, Ye Xiaochuan was surrounded by thousands of Five Elements Sect disciples.
Now, he was surrounded by a larger number of Cangyun Sect disciples and outside disciples.
Looking at the densely packed heads in the sky and on the ground, Ye Xiaochuan sniffed. He felt like a big monkey for people to visit.
