"The fact that it can pierce a tree as thick as a bowl from two or three hundred paces away shows that the range of this musket is far beyond two or three hundred paces."

"I estimate that this musket has a range of seven or eight hundred paces."

...

Immediately afterwards, the group retreated from the edge of the woods.

“We’ll retreat to a place 1,000 paces away from the woods.” Jiang Tian was full of confidence in the various types of artillery he had.

Especially the Napoleon Cannon and the Red Coat Cannon.

Both types of guns have a maximum range of over three kilometers.

Everyone stepped back.

A dozen or so cannons were placed a kilometer away from the woods.

Everyone who saw the show exclaimed in admiration.

"Is it possible to reach such a long distance?"

"How much strength does that take?"

"I wonder what these dark iron pipes are for."

"Those seem to be made of copper; these round copper pipes can reach the distant woods."

"It's truly unbelievable."

"I've never seen anything like this before."

"If we could hit that forest, with this kind of artillery, we would be able to sweep across the whole world."

The Tiger Warriors and Kunlun slave soldiers were all discussing it amongst themselves.

Everyone stared intently into the distance.

Song Yingxing snapped his fingers.

His apprentices quickly operated the cannons.

These cannons, including the Red Coat Cannon and the Napoleon Cannon, were modified.

All of these cannons use breech-loading.

Both the loading speed and the firing speed are much faster.

This type of cannon can fire 20 or even 30 shells per minute at its fastest.

Click, click.

It was accompanied by the sound of the breech being opened.
