It took a full hour for Li Li to think about the almost cross-age weapons he has studied over the years.

They had no idea where Li Yan came from these ideas.

Gunpowder itself is something that is almost never understood in this era, but Li Yan not only understood it so simply, but after understanding it, he used gunpowder to make so many things. This is simply impossible to judge by the thinking of normal people in this era.

If Liu Yan is a prodigy, now let Liu Yan evaluate Li Yan, he feels that the gap between him and Li Yan is much bigger than that between an ordinary child and himself.

In addition to the weapons that Li Yan highlighted, there are many other things that Li Yan did not say as detailed as they have attracted their attention.

For example, a three-eyed gun in the Ming Dynasty in the previous life was an important single-armed gunpowder weapon of the Ming army. The reason was that it could be released continuously, forming dense firepower, which was conducive to suppressing fast-moving cavalry. Perhaps friends who are familiar with history would think that Chongzhen left the palace when Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, and the weapon he carried was a three-eyed gun. However, the disadvantages of the three-eyed gun were also very fatal. Due to structural problems, aiming was not easy. In modern times, the three-eyed gun was used as hunting weapons. However, the Shandong hunter's evaluation in his previous life was that "three-eyed guns hit rabbits, but they were not accurate." Most of the time, the three-eyed gun became a salute for funerals.

There is also a kind of bird gun, which is not actually used to kill birds, but means that even if it is as quick as a bird, it is difficult to escape. It is close to modern rifles. It was seized by Japanese pirates during the battle with Japanese pirates, and then improved the copy. A small half of Qi Jiguang's infantry were equipped with such guns. However, by the Qing Dynasty, the Qing army had some resistance to firearms. In the Opium War, the Chinese army using bird guns dropped to less than one-fifth. There is also a saying that it was called "bird gun" not because it was used to kill birds or even birds could not escape, but because its bolt was carrying a fuse rope and igniting the gunpowder in the ignition pool was like a bird pecking at it. The range was more than 100 meters, but the only disadvantage was that it could not be used on rainy days.

In addition to individual weapons, Li Yan also thought about many large objects.

The turbulent oil cabinet is composed of an oil cabinet with oil at the bottom and a nozzle similar to a large appliance above. When used, pull the pulling ties at the tail of the nozzle backwards, so that the oil is sucked into the nozzle, and a small amount of gunpowder is placed at the nozzle mouth to ignite it. Push the pulling ties of the nozzle forward, so that the oil in the pipe is sprayed forward and ignited at the outlet. The Song army used it to defend the city to burn the enemy's siege equipment. However, this weapon also has its disadvantages. Not to mention the easy accident, the storage of oil and the difficulty of maneuvering of bulky boxes are all problems.

Yiwofeng, this is the Katyusha rocket launcher of this era, with multiple rockets in a launcher. This weapon was once exhibited in the Military Museum. The Ming Dynasty's "Wu Beizhi" introduced Yiwofeng in a more detailed manner. There were many specifications at that time, from three consecutive divine arrows to more than one hundred consecutive tigers running together, all of which belong to this category. The range is more than 300 meters, and the continuous launch of rockets made up for the weakness of ordinary rockets' unstable ballistics.

In fact, most of these were learned from the Ming Dynasty in his previous life that Li Neng knew. The Ming Dynasty was definitely a magical country for Li Neng.

The army under the command of Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty, was best at using firearms. When he competed for the throne with Emperor Jianwen, he placed a large number of firearms, and the attack on Emperor Jianwen had no power to fight back. Therefore, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he added a special organization to the Ming Dynasty army, called Shenji Camp, which specially trained soldiers to be responsible for the throwing and storing of various types of firearms.

The firearms in the Ming Dynasty were mainly divided into two types: one is similar to modern pistols, called muskets. However, it is far less advanced than modern pistols, and is relatively large in size. When used, it needs to be filled with gunpowder first and then ignited the lead line. The attack range is also very small, and generally only has a range of more than ten steps, so it is not applicable in large-scale warfare. The second type is artillery, which has a very large caliber and a large volume, and several soldiers need to carry it together, one person fills the bullet, one person ignites the fire, and one person holds the cannon barrel.

Although it consumes manpower, it has a huge lethality. In the Ming Dynasty, there was a weapon called "Ten Thousand People Enemies". It was a hollow large lead bullet with countless small holes outside. When used, it filled the small holes and then ignited them. It was mostly used to defend the city. After igniting ten thousand enemies, the gunpowder would scatter due to high temperature explosions. Li Zicheng once suffered the losses of ten thousand enemies when the attack was opened. He was beaten without any backhand and was forced to retreat.

Not only that, the prototype of modern rockets was already in the Ming Dynasty, and it was more interesting than modern rockets. There is a firearm called "Divine Fire Flying Crow", which looks similar to a crow and is filled with gunpowder.

When used, the soldier will ignite the lead wire at the crow's tail. The lead wire is connected to the launcher installed at the tail. The gunpowder sprays out, and the crow flies into the sky under the reaction force. The lead wire will eventually ignite all the gunpowder in the crow's belly and explode in order to achieve the purpose of killing the enemy.

For water combat, the Ming Dynasty also had corresponding firearms called "Fire Dragon Out of Water". This kind of firearm is very similar to modern torpedoes and is specially used to sink enemy warships. It has two-stage rockets, tied together. When used, it first ignites the leads of the next stage rocket and allows it to fire.

After its gunpowder is burned out, it directly ignites the leads of the second-stage rocket to increase the range. When fighting on the water, the warships of the two armies are often far apart. The range of the fire dragon's water can reach 1.5-2 kilometers, which is very powerful.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty enjoyed its achievements and took these advanced weapons and equipment for itself. In the following hundreds of years, the Qing Dynasty closed its doors to the country, no more significant progress in technology, nor did it produce weapons that surpassed the Ming Dynasty's firearms, and was eventually surpassed by Western countries.

Even if Li Qing saw this, he was quite upset. Why couldn’t he do a good job in the Ming Dynasty? This actually has many reasons for them.
