Li Er had no choice but to allocate 20,000 catties of copper from the raw materials to the green sparrow to support him in forging the cannon.
With the current strength of the General Supervisor, it was basically not a problem to forge bronze cannons. However, under the working mode of manual work, it was possible to forge one or two cannons, but it would be difficult to forge them in large quantities.
Li Tai had no choice but to give up on the idea of mass forging iron models. His main goal was to forge 1,000 jin medium-sized muzzles and light portable small cannons.
At this time, the superiority of the Ming Dynasty firearms was displayed. The few portable small cannons that were successively forged were all based on the Hongyi Cannon of the late Ming Dynasty. They used the breech loading, the separation of the barrel and the barrel, and the freely rotating support mode, achieving a leap in development.
Green Sparrow had also created a cannon carriage. By installing this small cannon on the carriage, it could be easily operated by two or three soldiers. Moreover, its firing speed was extremely fast, far surpassing ordinary smooth-bore cannons.
However, the biggest problem with breeching cannons was that they were leaking air, so they couldn't be made too big. In order to ensure sufficient lethality, he also made three three-thousand-pound bronze cannons with a muzzle. They used flower bombs as ammunition and had a range of three miles. The flower bombs exploded in the air, releasing countless nails and lead. Within a radius of ten feet, whether it was humans, animals, or beasts, they were all turned into powder.
"Good!" Li Er witnessed the lethality of the cannons with his own eyes. He was so excited that he stood up and punched his fists hard." Men, put red decorations on these three cannons and name them..."
He thought for a moment. What should he name these three cannons?
He shifted his gaze to the green sparrow sitting at the side.
"What are you looking at? It's not like you haven't seen such a handsome child before!”The green sparrow curled its lips and turned its face to the side, continuing to eat the apple.
"Ding, successfully despising Li Er who doesn't use his brain and only wants to eat ready-made food. Demon index: 3 stars. Reward: Infantry Manual…"
" Uh…" Li Er felt both angry and amused. Green Sparrow is a lazy donkey. If I don't urge her and whip her, she'll be too lazy to die. She'd rather watch helplessly than contribute to me!
Didn't he still create such a powerful firearm under my coercion?
Humph!
Green Sparrow curled her lips. If it wasn't for her mother saying that her father was so pitiful and asking her to help him, she wouldn't have bothered to make a cannon for him!
"This subject thinks that since this kind of firearm is so powerful and can fight against thousands of elite soldiers, why don't we name it Invincible General Shen Wei!”
Wei Zheng took a step forward and said loudly.
"Good, good!" Li Er clapped his hands in excitement." Pass on my decree. Engrave the words 'Invincible General' on the three cannons as a reward!”
"Just give me the salaries of the Great Generals!”The green sparrow stretched out her small hand unceremoniously, causing Li Er's face to turn red.
"Green Sparrow, I don't intend to give General Pao a salary!”
"Who will work for you if you don't get paid!" The green sparrow pursed her lips.'Father is so stingy. He can't wait to break a copper coin into two. I won't be on good terms with you in the future!'
The little guy lay in Li Er's arms angrily and grabbed his arm as a pillow. Li Er smiled and lowered his head to kiss him on the cheek.
The green sparrow is really a treasure bestowed by the heavens!
"Aiya, I'm so tired. I feel like my entire body has been hollowed out!”
The green sparrow was really lazy now. It lay in Empress Zhangsun's arms every day and did not want to move at all.
Offending Li Er…Although it was fun to offend Li Er and could earn achievements, the green sparrow only wanted to sleep now!
He really wanted to lie down like this until the end of time!
Unless there was a pretty little sister…Sister Snow Goose hadn't been here for a long time. Her brother and sister Changle also went to school every day. There was only one little rhinoceros. It was silly and cute. It wasn't fun at all.
Looking at her son who refused to move in her arms every day, Empress Zhangsun panicked and hurriedly asked the divine doctor Sun Simiao to treat him.
"His Highness King Yong's body is healthy. Perhaps it's the change in the weather that caused the spleen and stomach to be out of harmony, and his expression to be tired.”Sun Simiao was indeed a divine doctor. As soon as he placed his finger on the green sparrow's wrist, he knew that the little fellow was pretending to be sick. However, he saw through it and did not expose it. He gave the green sparrow a few hawthorn honey pills as snacks and got up to leave.
"What's wrong with the green sparrow?" Looking at his son who was lying on the small bed with a listless expression, Li Er was so anxious that his head was covered in sweat. He hurriedly grabbed his hand and asked Empress Zhangsun.
"It's all because of you. You make him do this and that every day. He's only a four-year-old child. How can he withstand such torment? Isn't he tired and sick?”
Empress Zhangsun knew that her son was not sick, but when she saw him lying on the small bed with his eyebrows drooping, she panicked for no reason and spoke in a heavier tone!
Li Er lowered his head in embarrassment and held his son's hand apologetically. His eyes were filled with concern.
It's all my fault. I was too anxious and dragged my green sparrow into this for no reason. Child, Imperial Father has let you down!
" Green Sparrow, what do you want to eat? Father will get the imperial kitchen to prepare it immediately…" Li Er leaned his head on his son's small chest and said softly.
"I want to eat something sweet and sour…"
Li Er's eyes lit up,"Que 'er, do you want to eat prickly pear?"”
Yes, yes!
Li Er immediately stood up and went out, heading straight for the imperial garden.
There were also a few wild prickly pear trees growing beside the imperial garden. Although these little things were sweet and delicious, their bodies were covered in thorns, making it extremely inconvenient to choose.
"Your Majesty, let this old servant do this rough work!”Wang De and the other eunuchs saw that Li Er's hand had been pierced and was bleeding. They hurriedly went forward and said.
Li Er waved his hand stubbornly and continued to endure the pain. He plucked the prickly pear and placed it in the basket.
After returning to the Hall of Political Establishment, he personally washed the Rosa spinosa and peeled off the thorns on the skin, revealing the crystal clear flesh, and brought it to his son.
The green sparrow pretended to be supported by its mother and sat down. It opened its mouth and bit the thorn that Li Er handed over. It immediately felt the sour and sweet juice filling its mouth. It tasted extremely good!
"Green Sparrow, is it delicious?" When Li Er saw him squinting his eyes, pouting his lips, and looking sickly, his heart almost broke!
" Delicious..." The green sparrow snorted weakly. When it saw that blood was still oozing out of Li Er's hand, its small face turned red.
" Hehe, I was accidentally pricked when I was picking the prickly pear just now..." Li Er hurriedly hid his sleeve so that his son could not see it.
"Daddy, you're so stupid. Why didn't you wear gloves?”
That's right!
Li Er was enlightened!
Why didn't I take it off with gloves?
Sigh, I've been too tired recently, and my brain isn't working well!
Ding!" Congratulations to the host for successfully criticizing Li Er and letting him learn his lesson. Demon index: 2 stars. Reward: physical fitness enhancement..."
