Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang, bang bang bang!
As the wild boar rushed forward with violent steps, ten gunshots rang out.
Minié bullets shot out from the muzzle, cutting through the air and making bullet holes in the wild boar's body.
However, this round of shooting did not cause fatal injuries to the wild boars, but instead aroused their ferocity.
Because of the damage caused by the bullets, the three wild boars not only roared louder, but also ran faster.
He wanted to rush to the soldiers immediately and tear these two-legged beasts that hurt him into pieces.
However, facing these three ferocious beasts, the thirty soldiers did not panic at all.
The soldier in the front row calmly and quickly passed the flintlock rifle behind him and took the second gun from his companion.
Then after a brief aiming, gunshots rang out again.
Wild boars run a little faster than horses, but their starting speeds are about the same.
A distance of three hundred meters would take at least thirty-five seconds to cross at the speed of a wild boar.
And thirty-five seconds was enough for the soldiers to fire five rounds of volleys.
Although wild boars have thick skin and are covered with mud, their defenses will be enhanced after they dry up.
One or two bullets from an ordinary firearm won't cause much damage, but it can't withstand continuous shooting.
Moreover, the Minié bullets used by the soldiers were steel-core bullets that had been improved by Yang Chao.
The power is not comparable to that of ordinary Minié bullets.
Under the soldiers' volleys, the three wild boars couldn't even withstand the fourth round of volleys.
In the third round, he was riddled with bullet holes and fell to the ground, bleeding profusely.
Seeing the fate of the three wild boars, all the onlookers present became excited.
It is well known that wild boars are notoriously thick-skinned and have strong aggressiveness.
Most people who go into the mountains are harmed by them.
When in a berserk state, the wild boar's charge speed is no slower than that of the cavalry, and its defense is far superior to that of the cavalry.
But the three wild boars in front of them couldn't even get close to the attack of this kind of firearm.
If such a magical weapon is used against cavalry, killing the enemy will be as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
While everyone was shocked by the power of the rifled flintlock rifle, the wild boar carcasses on the field had already been cleaned up.
Judging from the smiles on those soldiers' faces, it seems that there will be an extra pig feast in the barracks tonight.
At the same time, Wei Wu also looked at where Zhu Yuanzhang was and said:
"Your Majesty, the production of a rifled flintlock rifle is rather complex. Currently, only the Academy of Science and Technology has the conditions to produce it."
"But it will be resolved soon. When the time comes, I will submit the production method to the Ministry of Works, and Your Majesty will decide whether to equip the entire army!"
In fact, Wei Wu was not bragging.
After all, steam engines have already been invented, and they only need a little design to be used for rifling.
The blade is not difficult to make. With the current iron smelting technology of the Ming Dynasty, high-carbon steel can be produced.
It only needs to go through several tempering treatments and then be quenched in salt water before it becomes hard enough to be used as a knife head.
The only difference is that the loss will be greater. With a steam engine replacing manpower, iron smelting and other things will not be a problem.
Hearing Wei Wu's words, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the high platform, also smiled.
"We must resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We must equip an invincible army as quickly as possible!"
"Yes!"
Wei Wu chuckled and was about to speak, but Zhu Yuanzhang spoke first.
"You've made such a big fuss this time, so it's probably not just the flintlock rifle. There must be other goodies!"
"Take out all the goodies you've prepared and let us see how many surprises there are!"
Wei Wu was originally preparing to make the next demonstration, but he didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to say it first.
