Chapter 201 Playing with Fire

What a big guy... gradually, people who came to the test site were looking at the thing that was more than twice as large as the crossbows equipped in the Dongping Army, and were amazed in unison. Aside from this giant cannon, more than a dozen large armies such as catapults, catapults, and divine arm bows were lined up. Behind these big guys, rows of wooden boxes were piled up. Behind the wooden boxes, there were enough buffer distances left, and a considerable number of wooden boxes filled with sand were also prepared. Once the turbulent oil and Mars bombs were burned, they could not be extinguished by watering. Everyone had already had this awareness.

"What are you doing so many people... And you, Chi Lei, these things have nothing to do with your scout cavalry team. Why are you here to join in the fun?" Faced with many acquaintances coming, Ye Tao had no temper at all. At the test ground, the commander-in-chief from Dai Yun to the battalion-level commanders, almost all arrived. There were only a few unlucky people who didn't draw the draw and stayed in their respective defense areas just in case. It is estimated that after observing, Ye Tao could work on site here and discuss various strategies for further reorganizing and strengthening the army in Yunzhou. Originally, Ye Tao wanted to postpone this meeting that must be held for at least one month. It seemed that everyone was very anxious.

"Don't say that, it hurts so much." Chi Lei said with a smile: "Justice Ye, if you don't call us, we have to come by ourselves when we are anxious. The entire Yunzhou army has changed clothes. For such a big thing, we are not sure if you don't speak."

"Do you know why you didn't look for me?" Ye Tao asked with a wry smile.

"I know, it's just that there's not that much money now. Look at it now, the Blood Qi Army really doesn't use money as money, but at least you can give us an explanation? When will the dressing start and how to do it?" Chi Lei continued to say with a smile.

Ye Tao had no choice but to Chi Lei's lively and unrestrained attitude. This personality is really inconsistent with the style of scout cavalry that needs to be flexible and forbearable. It is difficult for him to bring out one elite scout cavalry after another. It is understandable that Chi Lei is anxious about clothing changes and other military affairs. The Frost Wolf Blade Wing Army he commanded has not yet been filled, but after having such a large organization, Chi Lei knew that in fact, these two armies had the ability to perform battlefield attack tasks in addition to being scouts. He needed at least a group of soldiers to practice tactics, determine the training methods of the two armies, and find ways to fully utilize the capabilities of the two armies on the battlefield in the future. Naturally, after the battlefield mission has changed, he was not very confident about what equipment the Frost Wolf Blade Wing Army needs now, but it must be different from the scout cavalry battalion of the Blood Qi Army in the past.

"Let's watch the demonstration first..." Ye Tao said helplessly: "I promise you that you will definitely start changing clothes from your Frost Wolf Silver Wing Army. However, it is impossible to be in place at one time at the beginning. Let's find a way to change the equipment of 3,000 people for you first. Transfer it from the Danyangdi Workshop, and then the subsequent replacement will have to wait for the factory in Suiyuan to start construction, or wait for the factory equipment here to be installed now."

Chi Lei said with satisfaction: "That's fine." He then asked again: "Isn't playing Feng Oil Type II and Mars Bomb Type II a secret military situation? Why can those Persians come too? Are you not afraid of the impeachment of the court...?"

Chi Lei skipped the sensitive words in a hurry. Ye Tao smiled and said, "Mr. Qu Yan took charge of the Censorate, and now his life is much better. Feng Zi is the most important aide in the management office. As for the other casual officials, the impeachment of idle officials, you don't have to take it seriously. Moreover, that Persians were not specifically here to see the demonstration. They were sent to Danyang to meet His Majesty and then came to Yunzhou, as if they were to discuss something. When they caught up with the demonstration, they could only say that it was a coincidence. His Majesty's Feiying Pass was clearly stated in his letter. I hope that the Samir family could be used as a helper."

"Spirit it as an arm?" Chi Lei recalled the statement and asked, "Is it the Samir family who is preparing to establish a country there?"

Ye Tao smiled and did not answer. Children of aristocratic families like Chi Lei have a father among the three nobles. Various news, strategies or power schemes have accompanied them to their bones. Although Chi Lei's expectation is bold, there is nothing wrong with it. The development and growth of the Samir family in recent years has given them greater ambitions, and in the Middle East where the Samir family is located, various forces, whether secular,

Religious, commercial, political, academic, royal, civilian, obvious, secret... The complex political and social environment has vaguely reacted differently to the strength of the Samir family, which has grown to this point. They depend on them and are close to them, and they are constantly slandering and suppressing them. All of this finally made the Samir family elders start to consider a question: whether to take everything into their hands.

The Samir family is good at naval warfare. But on the ground, because they have always controlled some local powerful people, provincial governors or kings of very small kingdoms to control military power, or just take advantage of the situation. However, there is no hero who can pull out and win on the battlefield. Before they directly contacted the representatives of the Samir family, Ye Tao did not know that the Samir family thought of him, who had a deep experience in building and reorganizing the army, and was quite substantial in a military power like Dongping, and wanted to seek training and preparation experience through him.

I just want him to recommend a series of military technologies, such as the technology of more precise and longer ranges of crossbows, such as improved mechanical sights, or the type 2 of Mars bombs and turtle oil that they should have heard of? Although the original products of the Mars bomb did not become Dongping's control technology from the beginning because Gao Jiazhi interfered, which caused a lot of trouble to Ye Tao, the current type 2 of Mars bombs and turtle oil are all registered in the Dongping Ministry of War and the Imperial Guard Command Post. If the Samir family wants to obtain these two technologies, they must have the official approval of Dongping.

The representatives of the Samir family came a little late. Unlike the officers from Yunzhou who came in a large group, they set off from Thunder Cliff at dawn and arrived at the Yunzhou branch of Ye's Workshop after noon. After learning that the firearm demonstration was ready, the representatives of the Samir family immediately came to the test site.

All the people who came to participate in the observation were arranged on a hillside, and the seats were very loose. In front of each person, there was a binocular with a wider view than the monocular used by the scout. Behind the main guests, there were six simple seats for the guards or personal use. The apprentices of Ye's workshop also prepared a lot of tea and refreshments on one side. In order to prevent the weather from changing at any time, they prepared many folding canopies and paper umbrellas that could be supported at any time. This style was made.

It was already the habitual arrangement of Ye’s workshop when demonstrating customers. Today, it may just be adding a telescope to each customer. If it is a demonstration of civilian products, furniture or other objects, this style is normal. But when the products demonstrated today become a series of products that aim to burn and destroy more efficiently, this arrangement inevitably reminds Ye Tao of the new product launch and reception-type activities of super military-industrial groups in capitalist countries.

"Senior Brother, can you start?" Di Suo Zheng, who was born in the workshop and now is now general, also came to the workshop today. He had visited the projectile devices up close, and then he was excited to snatch the command work of the entire demonstration. When he saw that the representative of the Samir family who had arrived late had already sat down, he came to ask for instructions. This senior brother fully demonstrated his affection for the workshop and his close relationship with Ye Taodi.

"Let's start." Ye Tao said lightly.

Suo Zheng took the Blood Qi Army-style compound bow and a ground-firing arrow from the guards around him, and shot the arrow from afar towards the center of the open test field.

With the sharp whistle, the demonstration staff from the Heavy Equipment Department of Ye's Workshop, who had been waiting in the launch area for a long time, became busy.

"Check the ruler! Seven hundred steps!...The wind direction is four points, the wind power is three levels." A strong and serious middle-aged technician shouted at the current weather data presented by several apprentices.

"The inspection is completed!" Responses rang out quickly. Although the heavy equipment departments of Ye's workshop are not soldiers, they deal with these things all day long. When it comes to shooting accuracy and speed, they are not worse than the heavy equipment camp of the Blood Qi Army. And their ability to master the latest models of various shooting auxiliary equipment has made the soldiers and officers of the Blood Qi Army's heavy equipment camp sigh.

"Please the explosion bomb. Starting from seven hundred steps, each shooting will shorten the range of twenty steps. There are five rounds of shooting in total, listen to my orders." The technician roared.

The apprentices immediately pulled the torsion spring on the crossbow and installed a circle of white paint marks on the end of the slide rail.

"Prepare!" A series of sounds rang out.

"First round, shooting!...Second round, shooting!...Third round..." The technician pressed the code chart, looked at the frequency of these apprentices, and completed five rounds of shooting in a very short time.

The apprentices watched with great nervousness as the five rounds of detonation bombs were fired out, and they breathed a sigh of relief. You know, although the detonation bombs are powerful, they are extremely dangerous in use and have extremely strict regulations. This thing is mainly made of light oil and other easily volatile things. Once it is loaded, it will be a big problem. But the guests who watched were a little puzzled. Why are these things not ignited? Why are there no reaction except for breaking some clay pots?

"Don't be impatient." Suo Zheng, who was standing beside him, waved indifferently.

"The Vulcan cannon is loaded, an ordinary Mars bomb." After waiting for a while, the technician ordered.

Several apprentices used a simple kilogram to load a primitive Mars bullet with a torch on their hands waiting for orders.

"Flame!" Very experienced technicians can now judge whether they can deflagate by observing the subtle and strange refraction in the air. Now, after several adjustments, the probability of deflagation bombs is too high. And these experts who play with fire have great experience in this kind of thing.

The apprentice touched the torch at the lead of the Mars bomb, and then squeaked, and the extremely huge giant crossbow called the Vulcan cannon made a crisp sound, throwing the Mars bomb far away in the middle.

There was only a rumbling sound... as if the whole world was burning and was swept into the sound of the explosion. Then, the air broken by the huge explosion swept across the gun crew and passed the guest seat on the hillside. The light folding chairs were blown to the point, and the tea cups placed on the small table in front of the guest fell to the ground. And everyone seemed to have no reaction to the tea sprinkled on the clothes...

".........What is this?" asked the Yunzhou Infantry Camp, a commander of the Dai clan, with his lips trembling.

"Detonation," Suo Zheng suppressed his excitement and said: "The detonation that was originally possible for tinder bombs to be occasionally triggered is now basically mastered by the firearms branch of the Ye Workshop. The probability of triggering the detonation effect in accordance with our method should be more than 70%. Today is a detonation bomb that is emitted according to standard density, and there is no special addition to the material for everyone to see what is fresh."

"Sir, it's going to rain. Let's hold up the shed first." A guard asked softly.

"Okay." Ye Tao turned around and said to Chi Lei and other officers with a smile: "Anyway, you have to wait for the ground to cool down, and you also have to move some target items up."

"Will it continue to demonstrate when it rains?" asked an officer.

"It can be seen more when it rains. This fire cannot be extinguished by rain...at least it is reported to me in the workshop." Suo Zheng seemed very dissatisfied with this ignorance. The officer immediately bowed and apologized. In Yunzhou, offending Suo Zheng, a general who has mastered the supply logistics of the entire army, is worse than offending the same level or even superiors.

"The following is the Mars bomb type II, followed by a demonstration of the fierce turbulent oil type II." The drizzle caused the temperature of the ground on the test site to drop quickly. Moreover, although this special formula of deflagration bomb is amazing, there are very few remaining residues after the heat explosion. Although the ground is charred everywhere, only a few small fires continue to burn.

Watching the workshop apprentices put the iron railing, the siege cart and a simulated city wall that was only four feet long on the test site, Suo Zheng shot the second command arrow, and then the third...

The Vulcan cannon fired seven times in total, five of which hit the target. This extremely high hit rate allowed the officers present to have a further understanding of the accuracy of the Vulcan cannon and the strength of the apprentices of the Heavy Equipment Department of Ye's Workshop. The second type of turquoise oil was close to the two iron rails wrapped in iron... The orange-red flame that soared into the sky, the raindrops that could not fall on the fire head by the heat of the flame tongue, and the slight heat feeling felt at such a long distance all gave everyone an extremely intuitive understanding of the power of the second type of turquoise oil.

"Please wait a moment, wait until the apprentices put out the remaining fire, and then you can go down and see the real effect." Suo Zheng bowed slightly to everyone. And this invitation is exactly what everyone wants. They all want to see how effective these amazing things are.
