It looks familiar, it does look familiar.
It could be said that the cannon in front of Tang Ping was almost the same as the ancient Chinese cannons he had seen in some history museums and ancient movies and TV series.
Of course, this also benefited from the drawings he gave Li Tai.
"Father, this is the mighty cannon of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Tai patted the cannon body proudly: "Thanks to the attack on Taiyuan this time, we captured some of the best blacksmiths of the Wang family. They made this The cannon body is just easier to use than the original one!"
"Where can it be hit?" Li Shimin looked along the barrel at the shooting range ahead, and pointed to a blackened place in the distance with some shock.
"Hehe, of course it can be hit!" Li Tai said proudly, then pointed to a cannonball on the side and said: "And thanks to my cousin's idea, we have now developed this kind of air blast specially designed to deal with cavalry. Cannonballs."
"Airburst shells? Have you made them?" Tang Ping was shocked. This was something he had never expected.
"Actually, there's nothing difficult. It's just a matter of using this fuse to control the explosion time of the shell."
He said it was nothing difficult, but Li Tai's fat face was full of pride. Anyone who looked at it could tell that he wanted to come and praise me!
"Cousin still remembers asking us to start with fireworks, right? I promised a huge profit. Whoever can develop such a cannonball first will be given money. Finally, it was done yesterday. After today's experiment, the effect is very good."
As he spoke, he shouted: "Come here, load the ammunition."
"King Wei, stand back!" At this time, Wei Jie stood up.
"You!" Li Tai raised his eyebrows and was about to get angry.
Wei Jie pursed his lips and gestured behind him. Li Tai turned around and saw Li Shimin staring at him. He could only chuckle and retreat, and then acted as the commentator.
"Father, you see, according to my cousin's teachings, we measure each dose of medicine strictly and then pack it in small jars. This can prevent moisture, ensure safety, and make the measurement more accurate. "
At this time, I saw someone holding a white jar, climbing up to the muzzle, then pulling out the stopper from the mouth of the jar, pouring all the powder in, and then using a stick with a ball of cloth at the front to poked.
Tang Ping knew it was loading black powder.
Then there was another person standing on the gun holding an airburst bomb.

At the mouth of the gun, but the cannonball was not thrown in, but was placed at the mouth of the gun, with a length of fuse exposed outside.
There is a person behind the cannon who is responsible for igniting, holding a three-meter long pole with a flame burning in the front part of the pole.
The one who lit the fire counted down: "One, two, three, let go!"
One of the two people at the muzzle used a lighter to light the fuse on it, and the other person holding the cannonball let go and let the cannonball slide down the barrel.
At this time, the fuse behind the cannon also began to burn slowly.
Li Tai quickly put on the earplugs he had prepared long ago, and Li Shimin and others also put them on, then held his breath and looked at the cannon in front of him.
Finally, the fuse behind the cannon burned out, just when Li Shimin was wondering why it hadn't exploded yet.
"Boom!" There was a loud sound. Even with earplugs, you could still hear the very loud sound.
The feet of several people felt huge vibrations coming from the ground, and their feet suddenly felt numb.
Then I saw a black thing flying quickly from the muzzle into the distance. About a few seconds later, there was another loud noise, but because it was farther away, the sound was much quieter.
From such a long distance, one could only see a flame exploding in the distant sky.
"Finished?"
"Well, it's over!" Li Tai took off his earplugs and shouted, "Come on, let's go over and take a look."
He saw several people pushing a cart out. As soon as Li Tai put one foot on it, he froze and turned to look at Li Shimin and others.
"Haha, Li Tai, you usually use this, right? You don't even have to walk by yourself?" Tang Ping looked at Li Tai with a smile.
This little fat man obviously belongs to the obese group. For his health, Tang Ping specially prescribed a certain amount of exercise for him every day.
Unexpectedly, this little fat man couldn't even walk. Just after he gave the order, someone pushed the car out. Judging from the skillful look, it must have been more than a day or two.
To know about this research institute, even if Tang Ping comes, he must inform him first, so he usually doesn't find out about Li Tai's secret.
"Weijie!"
"I'm here!"
Li Shimin said: "From now on, I will take King Wei for a run every morning. I am not allowed to have breakfast until I finish running. I will eat when I finish running."
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
"I obey your decree!"
Li Tai looked like he was about to cry. It was almost three hundred meters from here to the place where their shells exploded. It was too tiring for him to walk back and forth.
What's more, I have to run every day in the future? He wanted to die for a moment.
But he also knew that Li Shimin was doing this for his own good, and as soon as Li Shimin spoke, it was already a fait accompli and he couldn't change it. Then Wei Jie would not dare to resist the order even if he was afraid of him.
Several people quickly came to the place where the explosion occurred, and Li Tai began to breathe heavily again.
After finally calming down a bit, he excitedly pointed at the human-shaped targets on the ground and said, "Father, look, these targets are wearing the best armor of our Tang Xuanjia Cavalry. Look at these armors now!"
In fact, he didn't need to say anything. When he was gasping for air just now, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling looked at these armors with shocked expressions.
The Xuanjia Cavalry was brought out by Li Shimin. He knew how strong the defensive power of these heavy cavalry was.
However, the establishment of the Tang Dynasty is inseparable from the Xuanjia Cavalry, which is also the unit he is most proud of.
But now the heavy armor of these Xuanjia Cavalry has become riddled with holes. Even if such heavy armor is like this, there are many armors that are not as good as the Xuanjia Cavalry troops, and the end is even more conceivable.
At that time, I watched Tang Ping's demonstration in a restaurant, which was just a few small iron pellets. At that time, Tang Ping had described how powerful this weapon called a cannon was.
But only when you see it with your own eyes can you be shocked by its power.
Even for a moment, Li Shimin felt a little sad, because this meant that his Black Armor Cavalry was probably no longer the strongest force.
Because such artillery, as long as it is larger in scale, can destroy the cavalry charge with only one round of bombardment.
After the shot just now, not a single human-shaped target within a radius of more than ten meters was still intact.
"How long does it take for this cannon to fire? Can it fire continuously like just now? Can it shoot farther?"
Looking back at the position of the artillery, Li Shimin felt proud again. The Xuanjia Cavalry was no longer the strongest force, but wasn't the replacement artillery still from the Tang Dynasty?
No, it should be called the Tang Dynasty Divine Power Cannon.
