Chapter 272 The Weapon of God's Weapon

In the 13th year of the Tianzheng earthquake (1586), Guiyun Mountain was affected by the earthquake and a landslide occurred on the west side.

After the collapse of Guiyun City, more than 400 people of the inner island family, including the family owner, Neijima Clan, died in the landslide.

This is also the only famous Yi nationality in the history of the Warring States period because of disasters.

However, before the earthquake, Guiyun City was the main city of the Neijima family, and it was built by Neijima, the owner of the Neijima family during the Kuanzheng reign.

It is said that in history, in the 7th year of Yonglu, the Takeda family's Masayoshi Yamaxian made Hida and planned to subdue the Uchishima family.

But at that time, after receiving the messenger from the Takeda family, the Uchijima clan said, "If you can attack, then attack and watch."

He then ordered the Takeda family envoy, accompanied by the inner island family's retainers, to circle the city as a reference for siege.

As a result, the Takeda family ambassador retired angrily after seeing the terrain of Guiyun City.

And Uesugi Kenshin also sent Shioya Akuzada to persuade Uchishima to surrender the Uchishima family in the fourth year of Tianzheng, but Uchishima Shiri did the same thing as before.

After watching the return to Yuncheng accompanied by his retainers on the inner island, Yanwu Qiuzhen finally left with shame.

After Uesugi Takeda retreated, Uchijima's family returned to Yuncheng, boasting that they were the top two in the Warring States period, and Uesugi Takeda did not dare to attack the city.

Based on this, one can imagine how difficult it is to return to Yuncheng.

Now Li Xiao and Bendo believe that they all have a full understanding of this Feida strong city.

Otherwise, Ben Duo Zhengxin would not say that Li Xiao would not be able to conquer this city even if he overwhelmed all his forces.

The three great clans of Hida country, the sister Xiaolu family started with the power of the sister Xiaolu Lianglai, conspired to calculate and do everything, and finally steal the name of the sister trail, and order the entire Hida as the identity of the Hida country.

Among the top three, the sister Xiaolu family is the strongest and has a famous righteousness.

Although the Jiangma family is not as powerful as the sister Xiaolu family, it has always been supported by the Jingang Yinshan and abundant financial resources, so it has been evenly matched with the sister Xiaolu family and has been fighting to this day.

Although the inner island family is inferior to the Jiangma and sister Xiaolu family, they rely on the convenience of a strong city to fight against a hundred years.

Therefore, in the chaotic times of the Warring States period, the weak and the strong eat the strong, the three great tribes can stand up to this day, and they all have his capital.

If Li Xiao wants to unify Hida, he must first take one of the three great clans.

Sister Xiaolu's family is the strongest. Sister Xiaolu Lianglai and his sons are all momentary heroes. With Li Xiao's current strength, there is no certainty that it will be destroyed in one fell swoop.

The Jiangma family is the weight to balance the Hida’s forces. If Li Xiao rashly attacks Jiangma’s family, he is likely to be attacked by his rival sister Xiaolu family and the inner island family. The three powerful families will work together, and Li Xiao is also far away. Unstoppable.

In the end, Li Xiao could only choose the inner island home.

Bendo believes that: "In addition to having a strong city and difficult to attack, the inner island family is also an alliance of the sister Xiaolu family. If our army attacks the inner island family, the sister Xiaolu family will never sit idly by."

Li Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I understand that sending troops to the inner island family will likely cause interference from the sister Xiaolu family, so we must also be prepared to defeat the sister Xiaolu family in the field."

Dao Shengmeng heard this and said: "The lord, so attacking the inner island family is not easy. Please be cautious."

Li Xiao waved his hand and said: "Victory and fierce, if it is easy, I would disdain it. This inner island family I have long wanted to destroy it, and it has repeatedly colluded with my sister Xiaolu family and opposed me. There is an excuse for sending troops right now. It seems like it is difficult for outsiders to go to Yunjian City, but in my eyes, Li Xiao, it is easy."

Hearing what Li Xiao said, Dao Sheng Meng and Ben Duo Zhengxin were shocked, and Guiyun City was a strong city where one man was a man and a man, and Li Xiao said it so easily.

"Lord, there are internal responses in the inner island family?"

"Lord, did you contact the Vietzhong Shengxing Temple, they are already willing to send troops to help us capture the inner island home?"

Li Xiaojie shook his head and said: "Anyway, you will wait and see."

After speaking, Li Xiao drew away.

Only Dao Sheng Meng, and Ponto Zheng believe the two, even if they admire Li Xiao's conspiracy and judgment.

But they couldn't believe Li Xiao's words at the moment.

Bendo Masashin said fiercely to Shimakatsu: "If you storm back to Yuncheng, your family won't even have a 10% chance of winning. Is the lord too careless?"

The next day, Li Xiao pulled away and left Shengang City, and led more than twenty riders to Chengsheng City in light clothes.

After entering the castle town, Li Xiao first went to the castle town to see what happened to the Etchu branch of Mingguo Ramen Restaurant opened by Obata Yusada.

As soon as I entered the Yuezhong Ramen Restaurant, because it was not time for meals, there were not many people in the restaurant. Li Xiaoxian saw a bearded Nanman in a cloth robe, with a **** each side, sitting in the Ramen restaurant, talking and laughing. , While eating ramen.

Li Xiao frowned when he saw this person, and asked, "Rui Costa, why do you have such a leisure time, come here to eat ramen?"

When the Nanman saw that it was Li Xiao, he quickly pulled his arms from the chests of the two women, jumped out of the seats, and hurriedly came to Li Xiao, and performed the etiquette of a samurai to see the lord. Speaking loudly: "See Lord Lord, I don't know if Lord Lord is coming, the ministers will be far away to welcome him."

Li Xiao couldn’t laugh or cry when he saw Rui Costa. Which country’s worship etiquette was, but he waved his hand and didn’t care, and asked: "You are addicted to female **** all day long. If you do something to me again, I will order you to get a hundred whips."

Rui Costa heard Li Xiaozhi's words, and was immediately scared, saying: "My lord, we Francois don't like to eat whips."

"Then what do you Flange robots like?"

"Beauty," Rui Costa said without hesitation.

There was a loud noise in the room, and Yuzhen Xiaoba hurried out of the kitchen holding a rice spoon. When he saw Li Xiao, a warm smile suddenly appeared on his face, and then he remembered what he hurried back to the kitchen.

Li Xiao smiled slightly when he saw Oba Yuzheng's back, and then glanced at Rui Costa, who was kneeling on the ground in a panic, couldn't help laughing.

Li Xiao kicked Rui Costa in the **** and said, "Unexpectedly, there are flattering people like you among the Nanbans. Get up."

Rui Costa stood up with a sad smile on his face.

Then Li Xiao followed Rui Costa and went to a factory on the outskirts of Chengsheng City.

The factory was set up in the mountains, with only a small road running through it. The location was very hidden, and there was a light gun guarded outside the door.

After arriving at the destination.

Rui Costa was walking beside Li Xiao, pointing to the row of factories and saying: "With the blessing of God, oh no, under the wise guidance of Lord Lord, I am Rui Costa in order to complete Lord Lord..."

"Enough, just tell me how your guns are forged? If you blow me up like a month ago, you will never save a hundred whips."

Icosta's riding boots were heavily on the heels, and then he led Li Xiao to a warehouse covered with wood.

There are two foot guards guarding the door of this warehouse, and the door is tied with three big wooden bars.

When Li Xiao and Rui Costa walked to them, the two feet lifted the door bolt and pushed the door open.

After walking in, the warehouse was empty, but something in the center was wrapped in cloth and slightly bulged.

Rui Costa eagerly walked to the item covered with cloth and said: "My lord, this is the cannon rebuilt by the courtiers, please have a look."

Li Xiao nodded and walked to the object with a solemn expression. He bent down and stretched out his hand to slowly uncover the cloth. He saw a copper tube with iron hoops wrapped around it, lying quietly. On the ground.

Rui Costa repeated it, saying: "My lord, I learned the lesson from the last time, do you think this gun is still satisfied? Few words"

Li Xiaoning looked at his eyebrows for a while and asked, "Why is it shorter than the last time? I don't understand the cast gun, but I remember that the shorter the gun body, the shorter the range. It is estimated that the range of your gun can only hit your own. Feet."

Rui Costa hurriedly made gestures and said, "Master, you are misunderstood. This is a legendary siege gun. The siege gun is different from the cannon, so it's normal for the barrel... to be shorter. And it's normal. Another advantage of the short body is that it saves materials."

Listening to Rui Costa's words, Li Xiao was speechless.

However, Li Xiao squatted down and reached into the barrel and stroked it. Compared to the previous time, the barrel was polished smooth enough this time.

Li Xiao nodded, and stood up and took a look at Rui Costa. The big talker, Rui Costa, was the last time he was bragging about the results, and he actually got a bombing incident. What is the specific result this time? You can see the difference after a try.

So Li Xiao said to Rui Costa: "Give me a demonstration."

Rui Costa also knew the results of the cannon-making test this month, and it was about to be tested today, so he also had a worried expression, and then two of them took the cannon out of the warehouse.

A dozen craftsmen were crowded on the playground. Most of these craftsmen were naked, with dark complexions, and their faces were a bit dull after a long period of smoky and smoky faces.

Because these people learned that Li Xiao was coming to test the gun today, they all stood aside nervously, and wanted to see the results of their hard work.

"See your lord."

When these craftsmen saw Li Xiao walking in, they hurriedly bowed down together.

Li Xiao ordered them to stand up without being polite, saying: "Everyone has worked hard."

After Li Xiao finished speaking, he saw that after the target was determined on the playground, three or four foot soldiers, under the command of Rui Costa, began to pile sandbags.

Li Xiao also saw it from European oil paintings in the 15th and 6th centuries. Unlike field artillery, when Europeans attacked cities, they basically carried their artillery barrels on sandbags and used them as artillery mounts.

The history of the cannon, when it first appeared, the cannon was still used as a siege tool, not for field operations.

In history, the pair of two emperors successively started the era of using cannons.

One is Ottoman Sultan Mohammed II, and the second is King Gustav II of Sweden.

The former used artillery to capture Constantinople in 1453, while the latter created the era of field artillery.

Rui Costa patiently commanded Zuqing from the side, increasing or decreasing the elevation angle of the barrel, and from time to time he raised his thumb to correct it, giving him a very professional appearance.

After determining the elevation angle of the gun barrel, then the solid projectile and the appropriate proportion of gunpowder will be carefully loaded into the gun barrel.

After the equipment was completed, Rui Costa stood next to the gun body with the torch in his hand, and after making a cross up to the sky, he lit the torch on the gun body.

As soon as Rui Costa ignited the rope, the few footsteps hurriedly ran aside and flinched far away in fear.

The same scene last time was a cannon bombing, but Zuqing who was standing on the side directly vanished with the man and the cannon.

But this time the matchstick rang violently, and Rui Costa was the only one standing beside the gun, motionless.

Seeing the fire rope burning to the end, Rui Costa suddenly lifted the torch in his hand, pointed his other hand forward, and shouted: "Amen"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of artillery.

The sound of the cannon rang, and almost everyone squatted down with their ears pressed.

Li Xiao's body shook, and the power of this artillery was indeed much stronger than the so-called arquebus. The power of one shot was so fast, no wonder he was called the king of land warfare.

Li Xiao turned his gaze to the field. The first thing he determined was Rui Costa and his guns were good.

"Hit a hit"

Rui Costa threw the torch, and immediately ran around the playground as if he had gone mad. He ran and took off his clothes. He made various expressions on his face, and his tongue was sticking out like a long tongue. An old dog who is too hot in summer.

Compared to Rui Costa's madness, the dozen or so craftsmen were much more reserved, with tears in their eyes, and the whole person fell on the ground, hammering the ground with both hands.

"Finally succeeded"

Li Xiao looked at the destroyed target and nodded in satisfaction.

Li Xiao walked to the side of the cannon, the body of the cannon was still hot at the moment.

This Rui Costa made is called a mortar in China.

Unlike field artillery, field artillery kills infantry. Because of its low elevation angle, ricochet launches are often used. The series of ejection is one line per shot.

The principle of a mortar is similar to a mortar. It is a cannon with a high elevation angle, but a short body and a large caliber.

This was mainly because the metal casting process was not superb, and it was difficult to cast a long barrel artillery.

Therefore, short-body mortars are easier to manufacture than long-body guns, such as field guns such as cannons, and are more suitable for Li Xiao as a starting point for research.

It seems that the decision to choose Rui Costa is not a wrong bet for Li Xiao.

"Rui Costa"

Li Xiao shouted.

When Rui Costa heard Li Xiao's call, he quickly stopped his crazy behavior and rushed to Li Xiao almost naked.

"My lord ~lightnovelpub.net~ I hit, I hit."

"Okay, I see," Li Xiao asked immediately, "It will take a few months for you to build a gun?"

Rui Costa thought for a while and said: "Two months can be completed at the same time, but it is a blessing to be able to pass one of the two."

"Well, even if you have one in two months, plus this cannon, you must build ten more siege cannons for me within a year."

"Yes, the minister must swear to the death." Rui Costa said excitedly.

Li Xiao looked at Rui Costa's expression, but from the bottom of his heart he couldn't help but think of the expression of the inner island family when his siege artillery appeared under Guiyun City.

Artillery, well, the magic weapon here called Datong is about to enter the stage of the Warring States Period for the first time in Li Xiao's hands.
