Chapter 106: Missiles Revealed as the Great Benevolent and Benevolent Lord
When Yue Lingshan arrived at Liu's house, she happened to see Taoist Tianmen walking out with an excited look on his face.

When he saw her, he greeted her with a smile, and then left without waiting for Yue Lingshan to return the greeting.

This abnormal behavior made Yue Lingshan a little confused.

When she arrived at the backyard of Liu's house, she saw Liu Qing writing something, with two beautiful maids serving her.

Yue Lingshan walked over and asked with a smile: "Qingqing, what are you writing?"

"Senior Sister Yue, why are you here?" Liu Qing looked up at Yue Lingshan and said with a smile, "I wrote down all the songs my husband had composed before. Several families asked me to use these songs to get married."

"Hehe. That's why I came here." Yue Lingshan walked to Liu Qing and looked at what she had written:

"Thousands of Mountains and Rivers" (a long journey), "Myth", "Yu Man Tang", "Cang Lang Jian Fu"

"Has Qingqing finished writing?" Yue Lingshan asked curiously.

“Not yet!”

Liu Qing shook his head and said in distress, "I just wrote the music score, but these songs are all ensembles, and they are ensembles of multiple instruments. I have no idea how to write this kind of music score."

“Why don’t you ask Senior Brother Ou?” Yue Lingshan directly pointed out the problem.

Liu Qing laughed cheerfully and said, "Haha, I'm just waiting for my husband to come back!"

Looking at Liu Qing's happy smile, Yue Lingshan was embarrassed. She just borrowed the music score, why did she have to be fed with such dog food?
The two women got together, and Yue Lingshan naturally talked about Linghu Chong, saying that after he blocked a drunk for Ou Zanghua once, he became quite popular among the new generation of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and there was a tendency for him to become the leader of the new generation.

After all, Linghu Chong is a straightforward and unrestrained person, and he can respond to any question.

As for Ou Zanghua.
Sorry, no one in the new generation thinks that the third place winner will get along well with them, so they consciously put him in the category of elders.

So Yue Lingshan was happy about Linghu Chong's progress, but she felt that Linghu Chong paid less attention to her.

After hearing this, Liu Qing didn't know how to comfort Yue Lingshan, because even if Ou Zanghua was very busy, he would always take time to prepare some small gifts for her. In the past, it was companionship during the New Year and other festivals, and later it was a set of jewelry he saw on the road, a thick letter from home, and a series of pleasant songs.

Therefore, even if Ou Zanghua was not around, she would not have the same feeling of worry and fear as Yue Lingshan.

In desperation, she had to change the subject and talk about something else.

The next morning, Taoist Tianmen came to Liu's house wearing a pair of panda eyes, handed the algorithm of Daizong to Ou Zanghua, and said solemnly: "Nephew Ou, this is the Taishan School's "Daizong How". Whether it can be carried forward depends on you!"

"Uncle Tianmen, I will give you an answer as soon as possible." Ou Zanghua took the secret book and said seriously.

"it is good"

After Taoist Tianmen left reluctantly, Ou Zanghua began to read the book. It took him a whole morning to finish it. Then he closed his eyes and placed the book on the table, looking a little lost.

The Taishan School senior who created the move "How is Daizong" is undoubtedly a true genius. It is a pity that I cannot communicate with him, which is really a great regret in life.

In fact, my friends at Dameng have their own set of algorithms for calculating the range of artillery. They use a long pole as a reference and calculate the distance using the Pythagorean theorem.

But this method is too crude, and the accuracy is predictable.

However, by the time of the Qing Dynasty, even such a crude method of calculation had disappeared, so that during the Opium War, the artillerymen had to rely solely on visual estimation.
Now that we have "How Daizong Was" as a reference, there is more room for maneuver.

First of all, some of the content can be eliminated. For example, martial arts schools are of little significance in the face of artillery.

Next, some content needs to be added, such as wind force calculation, muzzle elevation, gun barrel temperature, shell flight distance, etc.

The sunlight and enemy movements were retained. After the modification, Ou Zanghua took another look and realized that this thing was "How is Mount Tai", but not completely, it could be called "How is Mount Tai 2.0".

Fortunately, there were many talented people in ancient China. Li Chunfeng, a famous Taoist priest in the Tang Dynasty, was a mathematician, astronomer and meteorologist. In his book "Yi Si Zhan Hou Yun Fa", he clearly divided the wind into ten levels:
The so-called first level is moving leaves, second level is ringing branches, third level is shaking branches, fourth level is falling leaves, fifth level is breaking small branches, sixth level is breaking big branches, seventh level is breaking trees and flying sand and stones, eighth level is uprooting trees and roots, plus there is no wind and gentle wind.

It just so happens that the Taoist priest Tianmen is also a Taoist priest, this is called professional matching.

However, China lacks in temperature measurement.

As far as Ou Zanghua knew, the only record in Kaogong Ji, a book on handicraft techniques from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, was that craftsmen followed the rules for smelting operations based on the different colors of flames.

That is, high temperature measurement is inferred by observing the color of the flame, and different flame colors represent different temperatures.

Then came the speechless part.
The experience of the ancients is pretty damn accurate. Because different substances have different vaporization points, flames of different colors will be generated when metals are heated.

So as soon as the craftsmen saw the color of the flame, they knew what to do next, and there was no need for a thermometer.

Fortunately, Ou Zanghua was in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. There was no decent thermometer in the world. The first thermometer was not invented until the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

After summarizing the necessary knowledge points, Ou Zanghua called Taoist Tianmen over and explained his ideas to him.

After hearing this, Taoist Tianmen suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders had become much heavier. However, such a challenging task was initiated by the Taoist predecessors, so it was right for him to be sent by Taishan to do it. He immediately patted his chest and said that he would leave everything to him!

Ou Zanghua would naturally not allow Taoist Tianmen to carry out scientific research with his own funds. He would apply to His Majesty to set up a special institution to do this kind of research.

But before that, Taoist Tianmen had to come up with something feasible so that he could convince Emperor Zhengde to pay.

After all, Emperor Zhengde was not a miser like Emperor Wanli. He was willing to invest money in things that could help him win battles.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing as the Zhengde chariot.
Taoist Tianmen did not expect such treatment. He agreed so readily and did not even think about the funding.

"Please rest assured, Brother Ou, the Taishan Sect will not let you down!" Taoist Tianmen bowed to Ou Zanghua. The person who cared so much about their sect turned out to be a disciple from another sect. Taoist Tianmen felt ashamed for his three disappointing uncles.

Ou Zanghua felt a little excited as he personally sent Taoist Tianmen out.

If Taoist Tianmen could really perfect the basic theory of ballistic calculation, he would help him ask Emperor Zhengde for the title of "True Lord of Missile Manifestation, Great Benevolence and Salvation" without hesitation.

Taoist Tianmen returned to the inn with excitement, and immediately summoned his fellow apprentices Tiansong, Tianyi, Tianbai, and his disciples Jianchu, Chi Baicheng and a total of thirty people.

"Everyone, I am going to split up the Taishan Sect. Those who are willing to learn martial arts and swordsmanship can leave now."

When everyone heard what Taoist Tianmen said, they were all stunned. Why did these words sound a bit strange?

However, everyone is willing to follow Taoist Tianmen to Hengshan County instead of staying in Mount Tai to obey the orders of the three uncle masters, because they trust Taoist Tianmen.

So in the team of thirty people, no one dropped out.

Taoist Tianmen saw this and smiled. He slowly said, "I am ready to gather your talents and work together to perfect "How is Taizong?"

Everyone became even more confused after hearing this. Taoist Tianmen didn't waste any time and immediately began to assign tasks. Tianyi and Tianbai led thirteen people to study wind power, and the rest of the people followed him to study how to make a thermometer.

Fortunately, Ou Zanghua has already mentioned that mercury has the property of expanding when heated and contracting when cooled, and can be used to make thermometers.

As for mercury, Taoists are the only ones in the world who play with it the most.

Who made them unable to touch the cannon now?

They can only wait until Junior Brother Ou returns to the capital to ask for permission before they can show their skills!
