Please ask me to be the emperor

Zhang Shun often set off firecrackers when he was a child in later generations, and he had already experienced this. At that time, when we were relatively young, there were firecrackers that liked to enlarge the trumpet, known as "Daming Thunder", which were relatively powerful and dangerous. At that time, the quality of the firecrackers was not very stable. Sometimes the firecrackers were fired too quickly and they would explode in advance. Sometimes adults didn't dare to release it casually. At that time, Xiao Zhang liked to take a longer medicine twist and release it from a distance.

This time, at this great moment, Zhang Shun also decided to put the medicine twister in a long position, and he hid in the pothole dug by the artillery just now. Then he picked up the flint and struck it a few times to create sparks and ignite the medicine.

The medicine twisting in this era is even more deceptive. It is all made by adding gunpowder and twisting it by hand. Whether there is too much medicine or too little medicine to extinguish it depends purely on God's will. Sure enough, after the medicine was ignited, it was like a small fire snake, twisting and turning, sometimes quickly and sometimes slowly towards the artillery.

Zhang Shun didn't care to see if the medicine was extinguished. He quickly lowered his head and climbed down, sticking his butt out, looking like he was not paying attention to his head. Of course, no one was laughing at him at this time, because everyone was in the same posture and couldn't care less about watching others.

Zhang Shun waited for a moment, feeling anxious and not daring to raise his head to watch. Just when Zhang Shun was waiting impatiently, he heard a loud noise that resounded throughout the world and made Zhang Shun's ears buzz as he was lying on the ground.

Zhang Shun didn't care about the ringing in his ears, got up and ran over to see the artillery. When he ran to the front and took a look, Zhang Shun almost cursed: Damn, the butt of this artillery has exploded into eight pieces! I really lit up the "big firecracker" again.

I saw that except for the side of the cannon that was leaning on the ground, it was still intact, and the other parts were gone. Moreover, the huge recoil force actually pushed the cannon up and rolled quite far, and the cannonball flew to nowhere.

Zhang Shun broke into a cold sweat instantly. He was lucky this time. If this cannon is not fixed properly, who knows where the shells will hit after one shot? If it were hit in your own direction, wouldn't it be an unjust death?

At this time, Liu Gang and other craftsmen and subordinates rushed over. Zhang Shun quickly ordered everyone to look for the flying iron pieces and cannonballs, and check the cause in time. After coming over for a while, everyone found the cannon body that had collapsed, but the cannonball was blown too far, and everyone was still looking for it.

Zhang Shun didn't care about the cannonball and directly asked the craftsman to analyze the reason. First of all, the pouring was poor. Liu Gang handed Zhang Shun one of the iron blocks, and he saw that there was a gap on it that could not be filled.

The second is poor cooling. According to Liu Gang's many years of experience, such large castings may crack on their own during the cooling process. Zhang Shun knew that this was called thermal expansion and contraction. Although Liu Gang didn't know that, his years of experience allowed him to realize that this problem could be solved by slowing down the cooling process.

In the end, there should be a problem with the design. No one dared to mention this. However, Zhang Shun knew that he was already at the level of "two swordsmen", so it was normal for something to go wrong.

There was no other way, so Zhang Shun had no choice but to discuss with the craftsmen how to improve the cannon casting. At this time Liu Gang Nie Nie Nie Nie seemed to have something to say. Seeing this, Zhang Shun said, "Just say what you want, and I don't intend to blame you. This cannon-making is the first time for all of us to get on the sedan chair, so we don't need to be so cautious."

Liu Gang thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "We have never cast this method of cannon casting, and there is no pattern to imitate. It takes a lot of time and we don't know whether it is a quality problem or a thickness problem. If the king lowers the requirements, make something smaller. We can forge artillery. The quality of wrought iron is much better than that of cast iron. Our daily casting of iron parts is just to save money and make it easier to sell. If it is made of weapons, if an explosion occurs, not only will it not be able to If it is not effective in destroying the enemy, it will easily hurt your own people."

"Oh? What should the forging method be?" Zhang Shun became interested and asked.

"The iron we make in Yangcheng can be turned into mature iron after a little frying. We use a hammer to forge it into a tile shape and enclose it into a cannon barrel. In order to be strong, we can enclose it in two to three layers, and then use iron By hooping it, it can be turned into a cannon." Liu Gang explained.

When Zhang Shun heard that this method was successful, he ordered Liu Gang to stir-fry the crucible iron he collected and refine it into refined iron for making. While Zhang Shun was struggling, he suddenly heard that Chen Changzhen sent someone to report that hundreds of officers and soldiers had come to him. He was preparing for battle and asked Zhang Shun to prepare in advance.

When Zhang Shun heard this, he was shocked and quickly arranged for the craftsmen to take Wukong, Zhao Yutou, Chen Jingzhi and his subordinates to watch. But not far away, he saw a hundred or so people, holding weapons and wearing cotton armor, lining up. The leader was riding a handsome white horse, wearing bright armor and holding a spear. Arriving in front of the formation, the man waved and shouted: "Stop!"

Suddenly, the footsteps of more than a hundred people behind him stopped abruptly, and there was no movement at all. This gave Zhang Shun a chill in his heart: as quiet as a virgin and as active as a rabbit, but that's all! Although there are not many people, this is really a powerful army.

Zhang Shun thought for a while and realized that he would have a chance of victory only if three hundred and four generals including Wukong, Chen Changzhen, Xiao Qinhu, and Zhang charged into the battle. While Zhang Shun was thinking, he never thought that the man would come forward alone and shouted: "But in front of 'Optimus Prime'? Do you dare to come and talk to me!"

When Zhang Shun heard this, he laughed loudly and said, "Why don't you dare!"

He motioned for Wukong to follow him, patted his horse and walked slowly over. Sure enough, Wukong followed suit. Zhang Shun walked up to him and saw that the man in front of him was about twenty-five or sixty-six years old. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a Chinese character face, a thick neck, a height of five feet five, and a standard military general appearance.

When the man saw Zhang Shun, he looked him up and down and said with a smile: "I heard from the rebel brothers that you are timid and cunning. When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation."

If Chen Changzhen were here at this time, he would definitely be furious and would challenge the other party to a duel to save his lord's face. However, the one following him now is the fool Wukong, who is ignorant of the world and is riding a horse as if he is wandering in the world.

Seeing that he couldn't count on this dead monkey, Zhang Shun had no choice but to laugh and said: "No, my brother is overly praised. But I can't compare to your reputation. When I saw him today, he is indeed well-deserved!"

"Do you know my name?" The man was obviously stunned for a moment, not knowing what Zhang Shun meant by this.

"I've never heard of it!" Zhang Shun suppressed his laughter and responded with a serious face.

"Then why do you still say that your reputation is well-deserved?" After asking this guy, he regretted it. This grandson was really mocking himself for being a nobody.

Sure enough, Zhang Shun laughed and said: "You are a nobody, you have never heard of it, so your reputation is well-deserved!"
