The bright sun fell from the sky, illuminating the bronze cannons with golden light. The rainy season is over, the sky is cloudless, but the sound of rolling thunder echoes in the mountains, like the roar of a giant beast. The continuous screams kept coming, and the villagers within dozens of miles were horrified. While praying to the supreme Lord God, they looked at the direction from which the roar came from.

In the nearby villages, the missionary priests had just been instructed to appease the villagers under their jurisdiction and forbid going to the place where the thunder came. Because there, the Divine Revelation Priest Group is holding a sacred ceremony to accept the divine power bestowed by the Lord God! Hearing the news, the village priests prayed devoutly for a few breaths, and then hurriedly left with their apprentices and militiamen to appease hundreds of villagers.

In the artillery field, Shulot stepped back dozens of steps. Wearing a bronze helmet, he stood behind the chest-high earth wall, patiently watching the gunners' operations.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Soon, the thunderous roar sounded again! Countless stone bullets flew out from the muzzle, and bursts of white smoke rose up. After a round of shelling, the gunners began to reload nervously.

They first added a half-gun twist at the fire door, which was the fuse that was about to be ignited. The position of the fire door is about 6.5 cm at the bottom of the gun, and it is about 4 cm long and 1.3 cm wide. Around the fire door is a ring that collects gunpowder. This is a design proposed by Sherlot to facilitate ignition. The Condor gun also has the same fire door, which is much more convenient than the previous wooden gun.

After adding the gunpowder, the gunners carefully added half a catty of gunpowder from the muzzle of the gun, separated by two inches of soil, and nearly a hundred stone pills. The so-called soil separation is to separate gunpowder and stone pills with soil. Because the solid bronze tiger squat gun is used, the charge is a little more than the cast iron tiger squat gun.

After loading, a gunner quickly checked the claw nails before the gun was fired and the iron tripping behind the gun to make sure the gun body was stable. This is a lesson learned with blood. The body of the tiger squat gun is too light. If it is not fixed properly, the body of the gun will directly retreat several meters after a shot is fired. In the initial test firing, two of Tilippi's apprentices were directly hit by the receding gun body, fractured ribs, vomited blood and died on the spot. Since then, Tilippi never dared to stand behind the gun.

After the inspection, the gunners carefully lit the gun with torches, then quickly covered their ears and crouched on the sides of the gun body.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The terrifying thunder sounded again! A plume of smoke rose, obscuring the artillery. When the smoke cleared, the wooden target 100 meters away was full of holes. The ultimate range of the Yushenhu squat gun is about 500 meters, the effective range is about 200 meters, and the best shooting distance is within 100 meters. And if you pursue armor breaking, you can even get closer. In fact, it is a large "spray", the closer it is, the more powerful it is. Fire shotguns at close range, and a dozen is a big shot!

The king knows that in Qi's army's tactics, the launch of the tiger squat gun, which is arranged after the bird gun and rocket with a range of about 100 meters, is the final killer.

"Good! Very good! Excellent!!"

Looking at the shooting effect of the Tiger Cannon, Shirot's eyes gradually lit up. He was full of joy. In Central America, which lacked armor protection, this kind of light artillery was the killer weapon that swept the infantry battle formation!

"If I had ten such tiger squat cannons against the Tarrasco Royal Army and placed them among the guards, Tarrasco's bronze axe guards wouldn't be able to charge at all!"

The king sighed in his heart, and the memories of the hard battle flooded into his heart. With bronze artillery, future battles will be much easier to fight! Especially when facing the shield-wielding battle formations formed by these elite warriors, the Eagles, the Jaguars, the Bronze Axe, etc., there is no need to invest in the elite warriors!

Then, based on the experience of the battle formation, he conceived the use of this light artillery.

Due to the limitation of the range, the tiger squat gun must be arranged in the front line of the array and fired under the cover of the infantry battle array. The fire of the artillery will raise smoke and obstruct the sight of the archers, so let them go with the shield infantry. On both sides of the artillery, brave assault infantry were arranged. After several rounds of bombardment, the enemy formation is loosened, and then launch a charge to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop! ...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Xiulott thought about it for a long time, until the third round of thunder suddenly exploded! He came back to his senses and estimated the firing speed of the artillery. Although the operation of the gunners is proficient, it is not simple, and they can continue to be optimized. The Condor Cannon fires slightly faster than the Wooden Cannon, with two rounds in about a quarter of an hour; while the Tiger Crouch Cannon fires slightly faster than the Condor Cannon, with three rounds in about a quarter of an hour.

"Well... this launch speed..."

The king was silent. In this way, the first round of shooting is the most important. You need to get as close as possible and shoot directly in the face of the enemy!

"Your Majesty, look, how powerful is the Rain God Tiger's squat gun?"

Tilippi straightened his chest and pointed his finger at the target ahead. Hearing the reputation, Xiulote looked over, and after three rounds of shelling, the target at 100 meters had already shattered and scattered all over the place. The ground is full of scattered stone pellets and wood chips. According to the spread area, five tiger squatting cannons can effectively cover the infantry front line with a width of 100 people on the battlefield.

"Praise the Supreme Lord God!"

Shirott smiled.

"This is an artifact given to the alliance by the Lord God to rule the world!"

"Praise the supreme Lord God! Praise the majesty of the divine enlightenment!"

Chalape leaned forward and took Tilipi to his knees and bowed. Then, Chalape raised his head respectfully and looked at the heroic majesty.

"We dedicate the artillery to you, the only sun in the world! This is an artifact given to the kingdom by the Lord God to rule the world!"

Hearing this, Shilot was slightly startled, and his heart was up and down. His face was calm as usual, and he nodded with a smile.

"Get up! You are all heroes of the kingdom and alliance!"

Hearing this, the two master casting masters and technocrats stood up and waited for the king's order. A few steps away, Bertard watched this scene quietly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The smoke of gunpowder dissipated, and the bronze cannon shone with golden light again. The king sniffed his nose and asked in a deep voice.

"Tilippi, what is the success rate of the tiger squat gun? If there is a sufficient supply of copper, how many can be cast in a month?"

Tilippi stretched out his fingers and pinched for a long time.

"Your Majesty, it is relatively easy to manufacture a tiger squat cannon. It has a simple model, a short range, and low airtightness requirements... The success rate is about 60-70%! With the manpower needed to build one condor cannon, we can make ten guns. There are more tiger squat cannons! So, if you don’t build condor cannons, you can produce 20 tiger squat cannons a month.”

Hearing this, Shulot was stunned. He chewed on the meaning of Tilippi's words and raised his brows.

"You mean, the entire bronze workshop, a thousand craftsmen and apprentices, can only produce 2 condor cannons or 20 tiger squat cannons a month?"

"Your Majesty, most of the people in the bronze workshop have to make bronze armor and weapons. There are only one or two hundred people in the cannon casting bureau. What's more, the output of the workshop is now limited, mainly copper. production of material.”

Charape smiled and explained quickly.

Hearing this, Shilot pondered for a while and nodded slowly. After all, the gap of copper material is too big!

Nekali, the director of industry and mining, has written many times, saying that the miners are running out too fast, and requesting to increase the manpower in the mine. The huge mining area is like a greedy underground beast, constantly devouring the fresh life on the ground and spitting out the dusty wealth in the ground. At present, there are more than 3,000 miners in the copper mines in the mining area, and the average amount of copper mined and smelted by 1,000 people per month is more than 6,000 catties, that is, 20,000 catties of copper material can be produced every month. 20,000 catties of copper material sounds like a lot, but it is actually just over ten tons.

After all, the kingdom can only produce about 130 tons of copper in one year. In the kingdom, bronze is needed to cast guns, bronze for shipbuilding, bronze for armor, bronze for weapons, bronze for farm implements, and bronze for arrowheads! These copper materials add a cent to various expenses, and there is not much left at all.

Although the Union has already exploited the copper mines in the Huetamo Mountains, the output of copper materials is probably less than half of that of the Kingdom, and it is not enough for the needs of the Mexican Valley. If you add the distant Oaxaca area, the large copper mines mined by the Zapotec people, and the more distant Mayans, the sporadic open-pit copper mines... The copper production of the entire Central American world is irresponsible for the king. It seems that it should be less than 300 tons per year. And if you want to drive the entire Central American civilization further forward, this copper output is far from enough!

In comparison, the production of copper in the Xining years of the Song Dynasty was 20 million catties, or 10,000 tons. This is only the recorded official production. I don't know how many private harvests are not included in the figures. In the Edo period, the copper output of one Ashio Copper Mountain in its heyday could reach 1,200 tons a year.

In fact, the Chingambat mining area is located on the copper mountain and the giant lode belt, with reserves of tens of millions of tons, more than the Ashio Copper Mountain, and can be mined until the 21st century! Its mining potential is far from being released, and what is lacking is miners, or miners.

Thinking of this, Shirot lowered his eyes. The whole kingdom is filled with hunger for war. This is the extreme desire for resources, land and manpower when a country is developing rapidly.

"His Majesty?"

"Well. Tilipi, starting this month, 1 condor gun and 10 tiger squat guns will be cast every month! If the copper material is insufficient, the casting will be suspended and the casting process of larger guns will be studied. After the test, all bronze guns will be cast. Just deliver it directly to the artillery battalion. The artillery battalion will recruit a new batch of gunners. You have to send skilled craftsmen to be stationed in the artillery battalion. On the one hand, you are responsible for the maintenance and repair of the artillery, and on the other hand, teach the operation of the artillery. To sum it up!"

"Follow you, Your Majesty!"

Tilippy knelt down and saluted.

Shirot reached out and shook the hair of the master casting master. Then, with a gentle smile, he announced loudly.

"Tilippi, you have done a good job in casting a cannon! From today, I canonize you as a hereditary noble of the kingdom! From now on, your family has the right to participate in political affairs, and will be with the kingdom from generation to generation! Praise the Lord God!"

"Ah! Thank you! Thank you for your generosity! Praise the Lord God!"

Tilippi was excited, and his eyes were a little wet. Two years of hard work day and night have finally paid off!

Beside him, Chalape lowered his head and sighed softly. From today, the metal family will be divided into two branches.

"Remember, condor guns and tiger squat guns are just the beginning! Next, you must continue to explore the craft of casting guns! Improve the production of clay molds, improve the quality of gun bodies, modify the length and shape of gun barrels, and add more stable guns. And more importantly, make bigger, thicker and longer guns!"

Shilot asked in a deep voice. Many pictures flashed in his mind, although they were only scales and half claws, they pointed out the future direction.

"When you go back, I'll draw some pictures for you as a reference!"

"Blessed by the Lord God! His Majesty God Kai!"

Tilipi bowed his head respectfully, praised sincerely, and his thoughts flew far away. Although, most of the time, His Majesty's guidance is like a mess of slag, but there are always some subtle ideas, like good luck, which can inspire people and save a lot of effort... Well, It must be that His Majesty Shen Qi Shi did not study it carefully! If it were me instead...

"Tilippi!"

"Ah, here!"

The casting master hurriedly responded.

"How many bronze artillery pieces are there now in the bronze workshop? When will the next batch of artillery pieces be delivered?"

"Ah! Your Majesty~lightnovelpub.net~ There are 10 Sun Eagle Cannons and 30 Rain God Tiger Crouching Cannons. The new batch of clay molds is drying in the shade. Because the rainy season is coming and the air is humid, there is a delay.. ."

"Huh? Another delay?"

Shirot raised his brows and stared at the casting master in front of him. The other party is middle-aged, but he has already started to go bald, and his body is much thinner than two years ago. The king exhaled and said calmly.

"Tilippi, promise me, try to do it on time and don't delay it too long."

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty."

Tilippi grimaced and nodded in agreement. He couldn't stop lamenting in his heart.

"Your Majesty, when are you going to go out again..."

As if hearing his heart, the king's voice came again.

"Tilippi, before October, all the artillery in stock have been tested and delivered to the artillery battalion. Next, I will be of great use!"

"Follow your will, Your Highness!"

Tilippi smiled brightly. He smiled at Charapé, his brother smiled at Bertard, and the chief warrior looked at His Majesty. There were smiles on all faces. Because the war is coming again!
