What we tested today was the newly built Franc cannon by the Military Weapon Bureau.

During the last naval battle, they heard the power of the Fran cannon.

Later, the military weapons bureau took a lot of time to use the salvaged artillery to finally imitate these.

Today is the time to test these artillery.

Emperor Hongzhi had no time to come, but he also sent the prince to come.

It is enough to show their importance to these weapons.

After waving the small flag in his hand by Zeng Jian, the Minister of Works, someone loudly notified him to fill the sub-gun and fire and inspect the cannon.

At this time, the Franco machine cannon was equipped with a gate, a sightseeing sight, and small devices such as gun ears.

These devices that can improve the shooting accuracy of artillery are something that the Ming Dynasty's self-produced artillery has never seen before.

Zeng Jian looked at the Fran machine cannon below and felt a little expectant.

What is the power of such a new weapon?

As the fuse was ignited, everyone present held their breath.

Oh...

After the sound.

Zhu Houzhao subconsciously covered his ears and stared at the cannon waiting to be fired.

The fuse is finally about to burn out.

However, the expected emission and huge sound did not appear.

The scene was quiet.

Zhu Houzhao took a look on tiptoe strangely.

"This is a squib?"

Zhao Ce also looked at the cannon from a distance.

The weather is OK today, and there is a sun above your head.

Although there is still unmelted snow around, gunpowder is specially kept.bΙＱμＧètν.còＭ

Not in a harsh outdoor environment.

How could it be so silenced?

Zeng Jian's face looked a little embarrassed and quickly called the person next to him.

"Go and see what's going on. I'm just the first shot and it's gone?"

"If it doesn't work, try another cannon."

If it's normal, it's fine.

But today, everyone in the entire Ministry of Works was there.

In addition, His Highness the Crown Prince came on behalf of His Majesty, and this cannon was imitated by His Majesty after listening to the advice of the Marquis of Dingxi.

This first shot cannot be fired, which is really not a good sign.

The person who came quickly responded and ran down to ask clearly.

Suddenly, a sound came from a sudden sound, and he said anxiously: "Let's wait!"

The person who sent the order thought that Zeng Jian had something to give, so he stopped.

When I turned around, I found that the voice was not called by him.

He looked at the sound curiously, and saw Zhao Ce making a sound, and suddenly whispered to the person who was testing the cannon: "Let's go down!"

"There is something wrong inside the cannon. Get down!"

Zhao Ce's voice was loud, and everyone who tried the cannon in the distance heard it.

But I didn't hear it very clearly.

They turned their heads in a daze, wanting to see what the people above said.

Sudden.

The person next to him changed his face and said quickly: "Let's go down!"

"The Marquis asked us all to lie down!"

After saying that, he lay down first.

Followed.

There was a "boom".

The originally silent gun barrel suddenly exploded from the middle.

A huge explosion came to my face with thick black smoke.

The two soldiers who were close to each other didn't have time to react.

But they felt a strong force hit behind them, and then they all lie forward without control.

In the moment of lying down.

The gun barrel exploded.

The thick smoke of gunpowder wrapped inside drifted everywhere.

Those who reacted around them either lie down or turn around and retreat quickly.

Zhu Houzhao in the stands was also startled and took a few steps back.

Looking at the thick smoke floating below, he said nervously: "Fried, it's explode..."

When the scene just calmed down, Zhao Ce had disappeared from the stands.

He walked down quickly.

Zhu Houzhao reacted and followed quickly.

His Royal Highness has gone down, so naturally no one else dares to stay.

They all followed them directly.

A group of people arrived at the place where the guns were tested, and the soldiers who were testing were getting up one after another from the ground.

Zhao Ce walked to the two soldiers nearest and saw them being helped up.

"How about it?"

The two soldiers were a little scared. When they heard Zhao Ce's question, they replied blankly: "No, it's okay..."

After the two of them finished speaking, they suddenly woke up like a dream.

Looking at the two flags on the ground that had just knocked them down.

"Yes, these two flags saved us!"

When the cannon exploded, they were closest to it.

Although their artillery building has improved a lot now.

It wasn't like the beginning, when the chamber exploded and the debris flew everywhere.

But when you are so close, the impact force and the power of gunpowder should not be underestimated.

If these two flags were not flying over, they would knock them to the ground.

I'm afraid they will face the power of the explosion head-on.

Zhu Houzhao also looked down at the two flags on the ground, and suddenly looked at the place where they were just standing.

There are many flagpoles inserted in the side of the stands.

And these two flagpoles are obviously near the location of Zhao Ce Station!

"You threw this flag out?"

Zhao Ce did not deny it and nodded.

"It's urgent, I don't have time to think too much."

"Only two flags can be thrown out and knocked down the two."

"It's fine now."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stared at him blankly.

So.

Is it really the Dingxi Hou in the stands who saved them?

The two rescued soldiers knelt down and thanked Zhao Ce for his life-saving grace.

Zhao Ce waved his hand: "Don't kneel, get up."
