Chapter 413 The First Musket in the World

Once you figure out what's going on, and start to do things again, isn't that easy!Jiang and his wife don't care what this thing is for anymore, they can use it for whatever they like, they don't even ask if they use it to poke chicken coops, they just need to make it, and If it is well made, it will satisfy the future son-in-law!

Jiang Laolan looked at the blueprint and pondered for a whole night, and the next day he figured out how to make it and how to cut it.At dawn, he went to Di Renjie and told him what he needed.

Di Renjie was also puzzled. He looked at the blueprint and thought, "What is this thing?" However, no matter what it was, he still sent people to the city to purchase according to Jiang Laozi's request. Everything needed is ten times ready.Jiang Laolan told him that this is the first time to make this thing, and he has no experience, so he must prepare enough materials, so as not to fail a few times and miss the important event of Lord Hou!
After finishing the matter, Di Renjie came to ask Wang Pingan, what is that thing?
Wang Ping'an had seen musket collections before, and there were two one-to-one imitations at home. Although both belonged to the kind that couldn't be fired, he remembered the appearance and drew it according to his memory. Can it work well? To be honest, he has no idea!
Hearing Di Renjie's question, he couldn't answer the result, so he had to pretend to be profound and authentic: "This is a divine weapon, something that has never existed in ancient times. No matter how detailed I explain it now, you don't understand it. You can only wait for it to be crafted. Take a look." , you will understand how to use it!"

Di Renjie snorted, and said, "It can't be an iron pestle, it's for pounding medicine?"

"No, no, you won't be able to guess anyway, so why waste your brains!" Wang Pingan said with a smile.

Di Renjie didn't ask anymore, but he kept thinking about it, what is that thing for?
On this day, Wang Pingan did not order the army to go out. He took Ouyang Li into the city and bought the things needed to make gunpowder. It is crystal clear, I have learned it in chemistry textbooks!

The next day, he set off again, heading for Longzhou.

The journey was not far, if the cavalry galloped, they could arrive in the same day, but Wang Ping'an walked slowly, even after walking for five days, he finally arrived in Longzhou.

At this time, the weather was very cold and the sky was gloomy. It seemed that it was going to snow. Once it snowed, the road would be difficult.This just gave Wang Pingan a reason to continue dawdling. In the name of preparing winter clothes, he ordered soldiers to go to the city to purchase, while he hid in a small village and began to tinker with gunpowder.

In the past few days, Jiang Lao Er has been busy. Di Renjie got him a simple stove, the kind that can be mounted on a car, the kind used in the army, and can be used to repair weapons and horseshoes at any time.

Jiang Lao Er used this stove to roughly make a few samples. Once he started making, he realized that the musket seemed simple, but it was actually quite difficult, especially the small objects inside. It seems to him that it belongs to the category of agency news, and it must be connected well, otherwise it will not work!

After a lot of tinkering, several samples were scrapped. It wasn't until Longzhou that he finally got his hands on the door and was ready to officially start making it!
In the small village outside the city, I stayed for three days.This night, it snowed!Although the winter in Longzhou does not come as early as in the grasslands, it can still be regarded as the cold north. This heavy snow lasted for two days.Both the city and the countryside were shrouded in white. The soldiers put on winter clothes and waited for Wang Ping'an's order to set off.

On this day, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, the moonlight shines on the snow, and the white snow reflects the moonlight, it is so bright, in the middle of the night, you can see the scenery several feet away!
The weather was cold and the conditions in the small village were poor. The soldiers went to bed early, leaving only a dozen scouts cruising outside the village to guard the safety of the army!

Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the small village, which could be heard everywhere!

In the village, whether it was soldiers or civilians, they all woke up from the shock, terrified, even if it was thunder from the sky, it didn't sound like this, and besides, it's winter, what kind of thunder is there!
This earth-shattering, weeping noise made the ground tremble!

Di Renjie was so shocked that he fell from the bed to the ground, he got up with a grunt, and shouted: "It's a strange injustice for thunder in winter!" Standing up, he said: "But why does it seem that the sound came from the elder brother's yard? where?" Putting on his clothes, Di Renjie went out of the house and looked into the courtyard where Wang Ping'an was!
Seeing that it didn't matter, he jumped up and shouted: "Brother, are you okay, why the house collapsed!" He yelled and ran to Wang Ping'an's yard!
At this time, the small village was already in chaos. The scouts had all rushed back, yelling, and the rest of the soldiers also rushed out of the house and looked towards Wang Ping'an's yard.After looking around, everyone was shocked!

The soldiers shouted: "It's not good, the big thing is not good! There was thunder in the sky, and the master's house was blown down!" They rushed into the yard, intending to rescue Wang Ping'an!

In winter, it was still in the middle of the night, and there was a thunderstorm that knocked down the house. What kind of evil deeds had to be done to receive such great retribution!
Ouyang Li was the first to rush into the yard and shouted, "Master, are you okay? Where are you..."

Di Renjie arrived shortly thereafter, and before entering the yard, he shouted: "Shovel, hurry up and prepare the shovel, and dig out my elder brother... ah!"

The soldiers behind also rushed into the yard, all of them panicked. If Wang Pingan was struck by lightning, then they would have to die too. Don't say whether God will take care of them. Ministers, you have to do justice for the heavens and repair them together!

But as soon as they entered the yard, they found that there were four people lying on their stomachs in the yard, forming a tall pile, and the one on top was Brother Yelujun!
Everyone shouted in unison: "Master, where is the master?"

Then someone from the bottom of the crowd shouted: "I, I'm here, oh, I'm crushed to death!" It was Wang Ping'an's voice!
Brother Yelujun got up and shouted, "Master, Master is fine!"

Another person climbed up from below, it was Ke Lianwu.As soon as the little girl stood up, she raised her hand and aimed at brother Yelujun's face, slapped her across the face, and cursed: "You bastard, how dare you lie on me!"

At this time, another person climbed up, but it was Ding Danruo. She stood up and took a step forward, and came to Brother Yelujun, raised her hand, and with a slap, it was also a slap in the face, and shouted: "Who, who let You lie on my...on Sister Ke's body!"

Yelujun's face was flushed from the beating, he fell to his knees with a plop, and stammered, "No, no, no, it's not a small thing, it's on purpose..."

But Wang Pingan didn't get up, he shouted on the ground: "Stop scolding, help me up quickly, I'm almost crushed by you!"

It doesn't matter what he said, everyone at the scene came back to their senses, rushed forward, helped Wang Pingan up with all their hands, and asked one after another: "Master, are you all right, have you ever been struck by lightning?"

Ding Danruo and Ke Lianwu got scared at this moment, squeezed into the crowd, hugged Wang Pingan and burst into tears!
Di Renjie shouted: "Don't cry, let's get down to business first! Brother, why did the thunder blow down your house? What are you doing in the house?"

Wang Ping'an wiped the snow off his face, suddenly laughed loudly, and said, "I succeeded, I finally succeeded!"

Ouyang Li was so frightened that he couldn't move, he thought: "Why is the master laughing, is he crazy?"

The soldiers thought to themselves: "It's over, the master was struck dumb by lightning, should we all divide our luggage now and go our separate ways!"

The people in the village thought to themselves: "The house of the Li Chang's family has just been built for three years..."

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "I invented a wonderful thing called... called that Tianleihong, and it succeeded!"

It turns out that he has been tinkering with gunpowder these days, but gunpowder is a thing, knowing the principle is not enough, it must be practiced, and the practice comes in, if it is not in place, it is still not enough, and it has to fail again and again!
No matter how Wang Pingan tried, he couldn't hear the sound. The gunpowder could be ignited, but no matter how he sealed it, it just wouldn't explode.Gunpowder didn't understand it, but he understood a truth, failure is the mother of success!However, the mother of failure, and the son of success, conceived for too long, success just can't be born!
That night, he took two little girls and brother Yelujun to experiment with gunpowder, and failed several times. He lost his patience and thought to himself: "Others make gunpowder, it's so simple, you can mix it up." Why, it's my turn, but it's hard to be like this, it's too shameful!"

Annoyed, he asked Brother Yelujun to fill all the prepared gunpowder into the stove, sealed the stove, leaving only the fuse, and then they went out of the house, stood in the yard, and lit the fuse.

Brother Yelujun is very obedient, he does what Wang Pingan asks him to do, he never asks why, unlike others, he always asks why he does what he does, why he does it, he never asks .Even if Wang Pingan asked him to jump into the well now to see if the water in the well below was frozen, he could jump down immediately, and he was so obedient!
He sealed the gunpowder into the stove, then ran into the yard, and lit the fuse as Wang Ping'an ordered.

As a result, after the lead wire burned into the stove, it exploded with a bang, and because of too much gunpowder, it even collapsed the house!
Seeing that there was danger, the two little girls immediately jumped on Wang Ping'an's body and pressed him to the bottom, trying to protect him, but because Yelujun was standing a little farther away, he couldn't hold him down in time, so he had to press down on the two little girls. On the girl, the scene just now appeared!

Wang Pingan explained what is called a sky thunder explosion, no matter how he explained it, others would not believe it. He had to say that he was hit by Donglei, but God's eyes were not very good and he missed him. He simply didn't explain the real reason, whatever. Nonsense, on the contrary, is easier to believe!

Wang Pingan said loudly: "Just now I... I did it in the courtyard and summoned the God of Thunder to show up. That Lei Zhenzi...you know who Lei Zhenzi is, right? I don't know, I don't know how to pull him down. Anyway, it's the one who is in charge of thunder, I will take him down Summoned out, let him lay down a huge thunder, and the house was knocked down in the end, that's what happened, everyone understand?"

If you had said that earlier, wouldn't we all have understood it a long time ago, how simple it is!
Everyone suddenly realized that the master has always been known as the Great Saint Ann, and is famous all over the world. Tonight, he actually summoned the God of Thunder, but the God of Thunder showed his true body and knocked down the house!

Ouyang Li sighed: "It turns out that the master has the ability to communicate with the gods. He really is capable and omnipotent!" He doesn't know what gunpowder is, just like modern people don't know what aliens look like. It can only be guessed, since the master has given the reason, he will assume that he has guessed right!
But Di Renjie whispered: "I thought there was some strange injustice, so there is no!" No matter how smart he was, he couldn't imagine the power of gunpowder. Believe it or not, at least Thor or something, so-so, even if the surname is Lei and Zhenzi!
But the soldiers and the common people all thought: "It turns out that the God of Thunder is called Lei Zhenzi! Well, the name is appropriate. If you see a dozen 'Thunder', it will 'shock' and collapse the house". Such an image, it is not called Lei Zhenzi." , what else can it be called!"

Since Wang Ping'an was fine, everyone stopped panicking, and after a while of confusion, they went back to their rooms to sleep.Wang Ping'an was so excited that he changed houses, he didn't fall asleep all night.

The next day, Old Jiang came to find him. He finished the musket and sent it to Wang Ping'an for inspection and acceptance.

As far as the craftsmanship of Jiang Laoer is really amazing, this musket is exactly the same as modern muskets in appearance, and it is the kind of musket that uses a trigger or flint. Fire bullets.Of course, this is only from the outside, whether it works or not is not necessarily true!

Wang Pingan took the musket and was very happy in his heart. He finally made it. It should be able to kill people, right?He added a little more gunpowder, filled it into the musket, and put a small copper pellet in it. The musket was crafted so that the bullet would not fall out even if the mouth was facing downwards.

After the preparations were completed, Wang Pingan called all the people to come and took them to the woods, intending to let his men see the birth of the world's first musket and let them be a witness.

Everyone didn't understand why, but Wang Pingan asked them to follow along, so let's watch together.

When everyone came outside the forest, Wang Pingan asked people to go into the forest to check first, and after making sure that there was no one there, he asked everyone to step back and stand behind him!

Raising his arms horizontally, Wang Ping'an pointed at a big tree ten steps ahead, and shouted: "Look carefully!" As he spoke, he pressed the trigger.

There was a loud bang, sparks shot out from the barrel of the musket, and black smoke spewed out!

The big tree ten steps away didn't respond!
In the blink of an eye, everyone thought: "What is this for?"

It was too late, but it was fast, and in an instant, at a distance of about twenty steps to the right of Wang Ping'an, there was a loud click, and a big tree was hit, and a branch as thick as a teacup on the tree slammed down. Falling, the snow on the trees is falling!
Everyone was puzzled, what does this mean? What is this for?

Wang Ping'an let out a huh, is there any mistake? What kind of gun is this?
