Chapter 733 How to enter Tongming?
The bearded man walked to the carriage and lifted the canvas covered on it. The dark steel beast lay there honestly, looking no danger at all. Even the generals of the Black Flag Army did not know much about firearms, and the firearm workshop in Zhuqueshan is still on high alert now.
Fang Jie walked up to take a look. The steel beast in front of him was there quietly. It was basically no different from the cannons in Fang Jie's impression. This kind of thing was often seen in TV series and movies in his previous life. But judging from the description of the bearded man, this guy's power is far more powerful than the so-called red-clothed cannon.
This kind of artillery actually has two types of shells, which is beyond Fang Jie's understanding.
"How many shells are brought?"
Fang answered the question.
The shopkeeper who was in the world translated the translation, and the bearded man quickly replied: "There were sixty shells with strong penetration and eighty shells with strong explosion. The shells produced by Duke Ross and the cannons of the Oplu Empire can also be used, but the people of the Oplu Empire do not allow us to do this. They said that it is an insult to use the cannons of the Oplu Empire's Duke Ross."
"Test shots two, one one."
Fang Jie ordered that he was too lazy to pay attention to the dissatisfaction in the tone of the beard. However, you can tell from the tone that the people of the Principality of Ross were also extremely disgusted with the Oplu Empire.
The bearded man and the remaining foreigners with a beard in the Principality of Ross quickly operated. This kind of artillery required at least three people to operate smoothly, and the two seemed a little busy. This time, seven people came, four of them were slashed by Fang Jie's fire knife last night, and the team leader was split into two pieces in Fang Jie's study.
The two men were sweating all over, and then they calibrated the artillery. Then they took out a shell and pushed it into the chamber with a wooden plug. After adjusting it, they aimed at a house that was temporarily built on the school ground. With a roar, the shell turned into a huge fireball and flew out. But perhaps because the beard was nervous or unskilled, the cannon was hit in a crooked manner and a pit was blasted next to the room.
This was the shell with a very powerful explosion. After it landed on the ground, it exploded. After it exploded, it was as gorgeous as fireworks, and countless Mars shot towards the four outs. Fang Jie was shocked. This powerful cannon was completely incomparable to the red cannons in the past and modern times. If it fell into the crowd, the casualties would inevitably be severe.
I don’t know how the Oplu Empire could develop shells like this. From a technological perspective, it has surpassed the Great Sui Dynasty too much. Fang Jie couldn’t help but feel a little cold. When a civilization develops to a certain extent, it will inevitably invade backward civilizations. If it weren’t for the sea and the Aegean Empire in the middle, the Oplu Empire might have begun to prepare to explore the land on the other side of the ocean.
However, now the Oplu Empire seems to be brewing this. Perhaps this powerful empire has no opponents on the other side of the ocean, and often such empires will have an ambitious monarch...
Fang Jie couldn't help but shake his head, and suddenly realized that he might be in an era with more complex cognition than before.
The first shot was stumbled, and the bearded man's face turned red involuntarily. He and the bearded man quickly recalibrated and fired a second shell. The strong penetrating shell accurately hit the room, and then exploded after a hole was knocked out in the front wall, overturning the simple house.
The personal soldiers and entourage behind Fang Jie let out a scream, and their faces changed color. Mo Ningzhi, Chen Qingshan and others' faces were also very serious, and they couldn't help but look at Fang Jie.
"Chen Xiaoru!"
Fang Jie suddenly called out, and Chen Xiaoru hurried over: "What are the instructions of the general?!"
"Send a decent manpower to go through the waterway. Each of the two shells brought ten back to Zhuque Mountain and handed them over to the people in the firearm workshop. In addition, let the Xiaoqi School bring Andrew at the fastest speed!"
"Here!"
Seeing that Fang Jie's face looked solemn, Chen Xiaoru didn't dare to delay, so he immediately sent someone to execute.
"I ask you, how many artillery do you bring this time?"
Fang Jie turned around and asked the bearded man.
The bearded man replied: "Dignity, we brought fourteen artillery pieces this time, most of which were in Dali City. One artillery piece was assigned in other cities to kill the enemy's chief general..."
He looked at Fang Jie's face and continued, "Because the emperor of Nanyan said that there are many people in the Central Plains who are stronger than mages, and they can turn a war with the ability of one person. The enemy does not know that we have artillery, and if we are surprised, it may be able to kill the enemy's chief general. In that way, the victory of the war will become easier."
The bearded man originally didn't believe what Emperor Nanyan said, but after seeing the fire dragon in Fang Jie's hand last night, he had to believe it.
"Has someone come to the Oplu Empire?"
Fang Jie asked again.
"No..."
The bearded man said uncertainly: "Our team is not from the same place. Our people are the guards of Grand Duke Ross during his lifetime. After Grand Duke Ross was assassinated, our status is no longer as noble as before. The general sent by the Oplu Empire asked us to bring artillery to the Central Plains. Some of the other people were mercenaries carrying murder cases on their bodies, not all soldiers from the Duke of Ross."
"The people of the Oplu Empire looked down on the soldiers of the Principality of Ross, saying that they were ducks on the battlefield, and they were so clumsy and ugly when they ran..."
"What do you think?"
Fang Jie turned around and asked Chen Qingfan.
Chen Qingfan shook his head: "The power of the first shell is too great, and the range after it explodes is also very large. It takes a short time from the shell being shot out to landing in that place. For practitioners who do not know firearms, if they do not dodge in time, or underestimate the enemy, they think they can block it without dodging... Even the ninth-grade practitioners may not be able to block the power of a shell. This is completely different from the power of cultivation, and the force that bursts out instantly is very strong."
Fang Jie nodded and his mood became heavier.

If it weren't for knowing that Fang Jie was in Dingyuan City, Fu Zhengnan, the lord of Qingyuan City, wouldn't have someone attacked with artillery at night. After Murong Meng obtained these artillery, he would distribute it to Qingyuan City and Fengping City one gateways. These two big cities are the gateways in the north of Nanyan. Because Murong Meng didn't know whether Fang Jie would attack Qingyuan City first or Fengping City, he would have divided two gates.
According to Murong Mei's instructions, this cannon was used at the most critical moment. He thought Fang Jie didn't know that the Nanyan army had such powerful firearms and was preparing to attack on the battlefield and use artillery to kill the chief general of the Black Flag Army. I have to say that if Fang Jie didn't know the news, Murong Mei's arrangement would be very effective.
Fu Zhengnan wanted to use this cannon to bombard the gate of Dingyuan City and then attack in. Unexpectedly, Fang Jie killed the night attack team in pieces after crossing the Jinshui River.
On the surface, there seems to be no big difference in the power of the attacks carried out by artillery and the great cultivators. When Fang Jie first arrived in Chang'an City, he saw Taoist He Li blasting a deep pit with one finger to make the scalper fall into it. Now it seems that the power of the shell is even greater than that of this finger, because the attack power of that finger is at a point, and the power of the shell after it explodes is in one piece. The penetration power may not be as good as that finger. But the power is not as good as the shell.
There is no doubt that the attacks of practitioners are more flexible. But as long as they are practitioners, they will definitely affect the changes in the vitality of heaven and earth, so the opponent can make predictions in advance. After discovering that the vitality of heaven and earth changes, there will naturally be a killer move. But the cannon will not change the vitality of heaven and earth, and it will be more ranged than ordinary practitioners.
There is only one ten thousand stars in this world, and one sword can be seven hundred miles away.
There is only one great wheel king in this world who can be indestructible.
Ordinary practitioners are likely to suffer losses when facing the bursting shells. Fang Jie calculated that although the range of artillery produced by Oplu was not much farther than that of a stone-throwing cart, it was about two miles away and was not powerful enough to severely damage the practitioners in Tongming Realm, but how many practitioners in Tongming Realm are there in the entire Central Plains?
"You don't have to worry too much..."
Wanyan Yunshu doesn't understand the affairs of practitioners very much, but she also has her own opinion: "Although the power of the cannon is very great, it is a dead object after all, and it cannot be exerted without anyone operating it. Relatively speaking, practitioners need to be much more flexible. It is not difficult to avoid the cannon, is it difficult to face and rush forward?"
Fang Jie shook his head: "Although that's the case, this is just an artillery. If a powerful empire really sends troops to invade the Central Plains, it will be difficult for the Central Plains army to compete head-on. Even the elite warriors who were claimed to be unbeaten in all battles at the heyday of the Great Sui Dynasty would suffer a great loss. So facing such a powerful army, the practitioners would be forcibly involved in the war... The artillery is dead, and some enemy countries can bear the loss. But the losses of the practitioners... are difficult to recover in a short period of time. A cultivator with good talent will not succeed if he wants to enter the ninth grade for decades."
"And most practitioners stop below the ninth level. After all, there are a few practitioners with amazing talents in this world. Qingfan can enter the ninth level in one go, and a small waist can explode into the ninth level in the extreme realm. But how many people are there in the entire Central Plains for people like them?"
"Once a war begins, ordinary troops are not the enemy's opponents, and they can only rely on practitioners to deal with it. At that time, even if the enemy's losses are greater, the enemy's losses are only firearms, which can be rebuilt. But what about practitioners?"
"You're thinking too much."
Mo Ningzhi didn't care much about these things: "Isn't it tired like this? It's just that some foreigners come, and it doesn't necessarily lead to a war."
Fang Jie shook his head, he knew that such a war was inevitable.
"If it weren't for this intention, the people of the Oplu Empire would not have assassinated Grand Duke Ross and dealt directly with the Emperor of Dongchu. However, the Emperor of Dongchu did not trust these people very much and did not trust the power of artillery, so he sent these people to Nanyan. He wanted to see if foreign things could have a great effect."
"If Murongmother defeated me with foreign things, then the Emperor of Dongchu would definitely be very happy. Next, he would invite the army of the Oplu Empire and the Dongchu army to join forces to attack the Great Sui..."
Fang Jie frowned tighter and tighter, because he felt more and more clearly that he might catch up with a chaotic era, just like the dark and bloody period in the past and modern times, perhaps, it would be even more tragic.

Tonggu Academy
Luo Tu stood outside the Broken Tower, staring at his hands in a daze. His face looked very calm, but if someone approached him, he would find that the excitement in his eyes was so strong. In the Broken Tower, an old man with one arm couldn't help but nodded: "Your talent is better than I expected... You have entered the house in just a few months and have realized the three points that I was thinking about."
"Master, before I practiced the sword, I had a ninth level of cultivation. Can I improve my realm now?"
He asked.
The one-armed old man said: "It's still a ninth grade."
Luo Tu was stunned, obviously disbelieving it.
"However, with your current cultivation level, you are invincible at the ninth level. You have a good foundation, and you have realized the three-point sword intent, so it is reasonable to have the current state of progress. It is extremely difficult to enter the ninth level of enlightenment from the ninth level, otherwise why are most practitioners in this world stopping below the ninth level?"
"What opportunity is needed?"
Luo Tu asked.
"The next thing you need to settle is that when your internal strength reaches a certain point, the opportunity may come. Unless you find a way to enhance your internal strength by more than double, it is impossible for you to enter the Pure Land."
"Can you enter the Pubing Realm by more than doubled internal strength?"
Luo Tu murmured and suddenly smiled.
