Chapter 1386 Royal artillerymen who neither Sanya nor the Privy Council have the right to intervene
Chapter 1386
"I know that what Wang Wushan and Shiyilang are all for my Song Dynasty. I will allow you to send five, no, one hundred and fifty cannons to the Liaodong front line. However, you must tell the teacher that if the cannon is there, the cannons will be destroyed, and the Liao people will not get it."
"I, thank you for your grace. I will give you a thank you for your grace on behalf of my great Song and Liaodong soldiers. I will thank you for your kindness." Wang Yang was overjoyed and immediately bowed. The emperor sitting opposite him quickly reached out to stop him.
"Don't do this. This is what I should do. Perhaps I am too cautious. Let's take a look at whether these Yuanyou divine cannons can shock Liaodong and the world."
"Then why should your Majesty give you a little more?" Wang Yang heard the words of Emperor Zhao Xu, and laughed and beat the snake with a stick.
Zhao Ji exchanged a look with the official Wang, and said with a thief smile. "Yes, the official family, if one hundred and fifty Yuanyou Divine Power Cannons are divided into three cities, one city will only be fifty gates, and there will be a need to guard the wharf and some vital places. I am afraid that it will have to be at least twice as many."
"You two guys are worthy of being a pair of masters and apprentices." Emperor Zhao Xu shook his head with some amusement and cried, stroked his chin and fell into deep thoughts.
Zhao Ji quickly said again. "The reason why the artillery foundry only built hundreds of doors is not because it is difficult to cast, but because they really don't know how powerful it is? In addition, if you don't use it, over time, this cast iron will be prone to rust."
Seeing Wang Yang and Zhao Ji's common words, recalling what they saw on the artillery test field today, when Zhao Xu was finally moved when he thought of countless Northern Liao soldiers pounced on the Song army's position like wolves and tigers, and here he just needed to set up the cannon and fill it with a shotgun to ignite it. In a moment, within a hundred steps, there was no more living creatures.
"Stop it, since you both think so, then I'm sure, but you are responsible for this matter. If something goes wrong, I won't ask others for trouble."
"Your Majesty's wise!" Wang Yang and Zhao Ji almost wanted to slap in the high fives to celebrate.

After detailed consultations and repeated discussions between Wang Yang and Zhao Ji, in order to maximize the reduction of the pressure of logistics transportation, they decided to dispatch only two caliber artillery to the Liaodong front line.
It is enough to decide that the light six-jin-type Yuanyou Shenwei cannon is 50, while the second type, that is, the 12-jin-type Yuanyou Shenwei cannon, used 200, and there are also 50 12-jin-type Yuanyou Shenwei cannons with extended barrels.
The six-jin Yuanyou Shenwei cannon is a typical light cannon. The total weight of the barrel and the gun stand is only 700 kilograms. Although its power is far inferior to the twelve-jin Yuanyou Shenwei cannon, it is because it is convenient and flexible.
As the main type of Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon of the Song Dynasty, the twelve-jin Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon was the twelve-jin Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon. Now the twelve-jin Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon of the Song Dynasty is divided into extended versions and regular versions. The twelve-jin cannon of the regular version weighs 1,200 kilograms, and the gun mount is only 2,000 kilograms. The direct firing range is 250 zhang, which is a distance of 700 meters, and its maximum ejection range can reach seven miles.
The body of the long-tube 12-pound cannon has a weight of nearly 2,000 kilograms, and its direct range reaches one thousand meters, which is the direct range of two miles, and the projection range reaches an exaggerated nine miles. However, the projection has no meaning at all, because there is no accurate head at all, and it is just a calculation of the farthest range.
In addition, after Wang Yang and Zhao Ji had a secret communication, he decided to give the Song Dynasty Navy ten thirty-pound short-barrel cannons and ten 20-pound naval cannons.
This 30-pound naval gun is only nine feet long and weighs only one thousand hundred kilograms. Although its range is only about one mile, the exaggerated gun diameter, if it is loaded with chain bullets or shotguns, will definitely be a nightmare when facing any enemy who dares to fight on the sidelines.
The length of the twenty-pound naval gun is more than nine feet, reaching one meter, and the weight reaches 2,300 pounds, and the range is twice as high as the thirty-pound short-barrel cannon. In naval battles, facing enemies who are still in the age of cold weapons, it is definitely a nightmare existence.
Of course, these two batches of naval guns were sent to the Jiaodong Navy in the name of test guns.
However, since the artillery troops of the Song Dynasty were strictly kept confidential so far, the transport of artillery to the Liaodong front line was naturally followed by the Wanhong Trading Company, and still followed the water transportation.
The team operating artillery was directly named the Imperial Artillery, the three thousand elite soldiers who were carefully selected from the imperial squads. They were directly responsible to the emperor. Not to mention the Ministry of War, even the Three Ya and the Privy Council had no right to interfere.
And this time, the one who will accompany 300 artillery pieces will be accompanied by a thousand elite artillery soldiers from the long-trained imperial artillery squad. The general who commanded them to Liaodong. Wang Yang finally decided that Guo Qi, the father of Guo Shang, who was the imperial examination this year, was now the deputy commander of Yuanyou Shenwei Artillery.
The organization of artillery in the Song Dynasty was naturally different from that of the infantry. Even if each artillery was considered one corps, the commander was the artillery commander, and ten firecrackers were the capital, and the head of the capital was responsible for it. Every fifty guns were one battalion, and one battalion was established. Three hundred artillery, that was six battalions, commanded by the deputy commander of the artillery.

Wang Daren, an experienced driver who has been busy every day, finally appeared in the Imperial Academy again. During this period, he was really busy.
Especially for the secret transportation of the Yuanyou Shenwei Cannon, I was really worried with Duan Wang Zhao Ji. After finally finishing the past few days, the matter was almost certain, so I rushed back to the Taixue School to deal with the shelved affairs.
After spending a whole day, the matter was almost done, Wang Daguan Ren breathed a sigh of relief and staggered towards the outsider of Tai School.
All the students saw that the only two-level top scholar in the Song Dynasty, all of whom were the Taixue Zheng, and they all bowed respectfully at the first time.
Even in the direction that Wang Daren did not notice, countless students saluted here. One and two looked at Wang Dazheng with their eyes full of admiration and pride.
It can be said that Wang Daguanren's prestige in this Imperial Academy is definitely more awesome than the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Nowadays, the learning atmosphere of the Imperial Academy is much better than before.
Moreover, even the nerds in the past had a very bad morning exercise every day, but now they are very proactive. Many students have also actively signed up for various sports competitions in the school such as the archery club, and seem to be eager to be as good as Wang Daguanren.
Wang Yang even heard that some students were preparing to wait for the next science, not only to participate in the literary exam, but also to participate in the martial exam. For such a good thing, Wang Daguanren was naturally happy to see it.
After wandering around to the gate of the Imperial Academy, Wang Daren was stunned. He saw a young man squatting beside his carriage.
