Chapter 598: Forcing Liu Xiang To Jump Over The Wall
A group of people arrived at the cannon casting workshop with great fanfare, but the prisoners of Frangji were escorted by several guards, and they followed behind them with puzzled and surprised faces.
Whether it's various workshops or agricultural areas, Lu Bu hasn't been out much in recent times, so those craftsmen and helpers just greeted in a hurry, and then went to work on their own.
At this time, at a position less than 100 meters away from the cannon casting workshop, a modified Fran cannon that has already been cast is placed there.
Because there is no news before, the artillery has not been installed on the wheels, only the artillery itself is mounted on the gun mount.
That Baron Felipe, who can be regarded as a knowledgeable "477", was shocked when he saw the caliber and size of the artillery from a distance.
Although in terms of shape, this artillery is similar to the Franc cannon produced by themselves, but in several key places, there have been considerable changes.
How much this change will affect the overall effect of the artillery will be known in a while.
But seeing so many ministers and nobles standing there calmly on the dangerous cannon test site, Baron Felipe already has a bottom line in his heart.
This cannon is supposed to be really powerful!
Since Lu Bu was present in person, there was no one else's business about the cannon test.
After several craftsmen loaded the sub-cannons by themselves, they loaded solid shells into the mother cannons, and then handed Lu Bu a torch.
Lu Bu took the torch and hung it on the cannon.
Although the cannon at this time has been modified many times after his proposal, the most important problem has not been solved, that is, the firing problem!
If the cannon can only be fired by igniting it, no matter how powerful the cannon is, it will not become a weapon of war in the end!
On the surface of the sea in the distance, there were already patrol boats, which dragged the keelless wooden boat that was the target to the designated position, and then sailed away.
The position of the target was just three nautical miles away, and this process far surpassed the previous machine gun.
Baron Felipe stood not far away, his eyes widened.
He is also a person who has sailed at sea for a long time, how could he not know what Lu Bu wants to do now.
This prince of Ming Dynasty actually wanted to hit that target ship with a single shot from a cannon at a distance of three nautical miles?
Even if he uses that kind of giant cannon, after a long time of aiming, and the enemy is not moving, it is probably impossible, right?
His idea only lasted for less than a moment, and it was completely shattered with the sound of a cannon after Lu Bu ignited the cannon!
After the modification of the Fran cannon, its power has become much stronger, so the recoil force is naturally also great. Without the wheels, the rear seat actually smashed a dent in the solid ground.
And after the cannonball drew an arc in midair, it hit the target ship with incomparable precision.
The powerful penetrating power actually smashed through the target ship before falling into the sea.
Seeing the hull of the ship sinking slowly above the sea in the distance, Baron Felipe was completely at a loss.
Lu Bu didn't think of him at the first time, but stood on the spot and checked the Franc cannon, and then whispered to the craftsmen beside him: "The power has achieved the effect I want, but the recoil needs to be considered." There is a way to reduce it, and although the accuracy meets the requirements, the adjustment time is too long, so this needs to be adjusted!"
"Each flagship must be equipped with three Franco cannons as the main guns. If the targets cannot be adjusted in time, then no matter how strong their firepower is, no matter how fast they are, it will be meaningless!"
Although Lu Bu's words were lowered, Baron Felipe, who was pricking up his ears not far away, heard everything in his ears, and his face suddenly became more gloomy..
It seems that this cannon is already powerful beyond their imagination, and there is even a possibility of improvement?
After Lu Bu finished talking about his thoughts to the craftsmen, he turned his head and looked at Baron Felipe.
Baron Felipe's face turned bitter, and he led the people behind him to kneel down towards Lu Bu with a plop.
"Your Highness, I really don't know what I can give to pay tribute to Your Highness, so that I can show my ambition!"
"Why don't I dedicate these Frangipani girls to His Highness to fill the harem?"
After kowtowing again and again, he raised his head with a hint of hope, and said to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu didn't expect that this guy would say such a weird condition, and he was quite dumbfounded.
It was Wang Cheng'en who strode out and said in a sharp voice: "Bold, Your Highness is the body of ten thousand gold, you dare to let your highness live with your eyes in 4.1 years!"
Lu Bu coughed lightly, waved Wang Chengen back, and then looked at Baron Felipe meaningfully.
This guy is very smart, and it won't take long for him to figure out that this is an excuse from his group to suppress him. After all, Dragon City is still small at this time, and it doesn't have the depth of the Central Plains.
So he had to find a way to set the unequal terms before this guy came back to his senses!
ps: "Anti-Japanese War: Young Warlords" is recommended.
