    -If you build a battleship in the format shown in the picture, it will be necessary to operate the cannons…

    Brown, who wrote the letter, looked at the concept drawing he had drawn first.

    There was a drawing of a medieval battleship that I had seen in a movie in my past life.

    ‘They’ll take care of the rest.’

    No matter how good a person you are, there is no way you would know the internal design of a medieval battleship.

    After sealing the letter, Brown checked the following documents:

    [Arquebus operation report]

    ‘Hmm…’

    There wasn’t much content.

    We conduct shooting training on a regular basis, so that’s pretty much it.

    However, since it is written positively, there should not be any major problems.

    ‘Anyway, what will happen next?’

    From his memory, it was clear that something would explode soon.

    However, since I only skimmed through the novel, I had to guess based on what I briefly saw at the beginning and what I heard from a friend.

    ‘If I had known that I would be reincarnated, I would have read the novel properly.’

    Brown scratched his head and stood up.

    This is because you need to stop by the blacksmith shop and check the production status.

    ‘I’ll see Karen while I’m gone.’

    I haven’t been able to meet her since I was busy.

    Brown took a step and headed outside.

    “Ah, it’s you.”

    “I came to check the 2nd production.”

    “It will be completed within three days.”

    After checking the production status, Brown headed to the gunpowder workshop.

    This was my second time visiting the workshop Karen opened after leaving the academy.

    ‘It was here.’

    He entered the office next to the gunpowder workshop.

    “Mr. Brown? It’s been a while.”

    “It’s been a while. Are you very busy?”

    “No. I roughly finished everything. Would you like to sit down first?”

    After organizing the documents, Karen grabbed a cup of coffee and sat in the seat in front of Brown.

    “I will enjoy my coffee. How about working in a workshop?”

    “Hehe. it’s hard. Still, I think it’s much better than when I was at the academy. You can continue your research.”

    As she said, her expression looked much brighter than when she was a teaching assistant at the academy.

    “A lot of orders come in from all over. There were more places in need than I thought.”

    “Thank goodness.”

    “How have you been, Mr. Brown?”

    “Well, I’m suffering from the increased workload. The cannon is well-received by the Navy, and the matchlock…”

    As I talked with Karen, time passed quickly.

    “It’s already time…I’ll just leave.”

    “I had fun today. Please feel free to come visit us anytime.”

    ‘I’m jealous.’

    She seemed to be content.

    Meanwhile, naval soldiers were shouting loudly.

    “Damn, I want to board that cannon-shooting ship!”

    “If you have a cannon, you can win without fighting those damn pirates?”

    “Teeeng, I want to shoot the cannon too.”

    Every soldier wanted to board a warship that operated cannons.

    “Still engaging in hand-to-hand combat with pirates. It’s unbelievable. Poor people who are behind the times.”

    “Ah. You mean the sight of a cannon spewing fire? It’s nothing short of ecstatic.”

    “The tip of the cannon shines and the cannonball delivers judgment. They willingly provide justice to pirates and respond to crime with force. Oh cannon. Keep me by your side. A person who spills someone else’s blood. He will make his own blood spill.”

    Those already deployed to warships operating cannons were relaxed.

    This situation did not only occur among soldiers.

    “Did you say John Brown? Find a way to voluntarily enlist in the Navy.”

    “Kk, why isn’t there a talent like that in the Navy?”

    “Ah, John Brown. Why is this the only cannon I have? We need a cannon. More cannons… !”

    The story about the cannon spread among naval officers, and everyone cried out for cannons.

    “This is John Brown’s reply!”

    “Check it out!”

    “Ah…the Bible has arrived…I will look at it with a reverent heart.”

    To summarize the contents of the letter, it was as follows.

    -Okay, okay. I roughly drew it. I don’t know much about the ship’s structure, so this is my limit. Think carefully about the space inside to store shells and gunpowder. Then, good luck with your military life!

    A picture of a battleship enclosed with it.

    “Ugh…Cannons are divided into layers and applied? Innovative… !”

    “Ah, 24 guns per side? Kikikit..Kikikit…”

    “This isn’t enough, bigger, more… !”

    “Renovate the battleship immediately!”

    “Budget…an even bigger budget…”

    “Ugh, 24 shots in a row!”

    The picture went around and eventually made its way to the shipyard with additional budget.

    They had also heard rumors about the cannon, so they received the picture with anticipation.

    “Damn, this is innovative.”

    “Let me take a look too… Damn, this is revolutionary.”

    “What is it? Damn, so what about the interior design?”

    “They say we should think about it?”

    “?”

    The shipyard experienced a boom for the first time in a while due to a sudden surge in orders.

    As one area remodeled existing ships, the other area built new ships.

    “So when is the cannon coming?”

    “I’m sorry, Mom. I guess I’ll have to do hand-to-hand combat with pirates… I’ll return in good health. See you next vacation…”

    “Strange? Is it time to come? weird? Is it time to come? Strange? Is it time to come? Strange? Is it time to come? Strange? Is it time to come?”

    “Additional order. Shall I put it in?”

    Additional order quantity for cannons.

    2000 questions.

    “Ugh…”

    Because of the increased workload, John Brown’s back arched.

    Meanwhile, imperial officials were troubled by barbarians near the border.

    “The damage gets worse every year.”

    “Yes. The complaints of the people of the empire near the border are gradually getting worse. The lords are also asking for help. Trade has also become difficult.”

    “If trade is difficult…”

    The officials made eye contact.

    “No spices?”

    “How to get forgiveness from your wife… No longer able to get your valuables?”

    “It’s important.”

    “This is important.”

    “Let’s move and deploy troops to areas where damage from barbarians continues to occur around the border.”

    “Hmm. For justice.”

    “For the peace of the people of the empire.”

    Some of the troops were additionally deployed towards the border.

    A unit testing matchlock rifles was also included.

    “They are barbarians, but how much is that?”

    They headed to their assigned location without much worry.

    But to greet them.

    “Welcome to hell.”

    The garrison soldiers greet them helplessly with expressions of despair.

    “How on earth…”

    “Ah…you mean barbarians…”

    “Gross and uncivilized. At first, I scratched it gently, but when I applied, it fell out. When we come back, the main base has been robbed.”

    “Kkkkk. Have you ever fought with them? They are crazy people who are not afraid of dying.”

    “Have you ever fought with them all day? Have you ever despaired as you see them pouring in endlessly…”

    “I had to see it. Even though he was stabbed with a spear, he smiled while swinging his club and barking at the soldier next to him. Ugh…”

    “I want to go home I want to go home I want to go home…”

    They were overcome with a sense of defeat.

    The volunteers were confused when they saw them.

    “Weak guys. Come on barbarians.”

    “Really…what if it’s beyond imagination?”

    “Are you also affected by that? Come to your senses.”

    One of the garrison soldiers smiled at the volunteers.

    “Kkkkk. That momentum. Good posture. I hope I can maintain it even when I meet them.”

    “You’re talking nonsense. There are knights, but they are barbarians.”

    “We also had drivers.”

    It was past tense.

    Soldiers stationed there who only talk nonsense.

    The volunteers ignored them and began to stand on duty.

    It wasn’t long before we encountered the barbarians.

    “It’s an attack!”

    “To the location of all troops!”

    Soldiers forming a square around the camp.

    “Do as trained!”

    “Don’t get excited! Stay in your place!”

    The soldiers stood and waited for the barbarians.

    The archers standing behind began aiming their arrows.

    “Fire!”

    -Shoosh!

    Some of the barbarians running ahead were hit by arrows and fell.

    However, the barbarians still charged in square formation without losing speed.

    “Queu! I can smell the milky smell all the way from here!”

    “Ahh…you little guys…I’ll crush them!”

    Coo thump.

    Barbarians clashing in square formation.

    As soon as the barbarians fell from being stabbed by the spears, additional barbarians from the back row came pushing in.

    I tried holding on with my shield, but it wasn’t enough.

    “Damn it, pull out the sword!”

    The soldiers pulled out their swords from their belts and began a melee.

    After a long, long time, the barbarians began to flee.

    “Is it over? ?”

    One of the volunteers muttered while taking a hard breath.

    “Maintenance! I will come again soon!”

    Shortly after the garrison finished speaking, the barbarians began to flock again.

    “You little guys…I’ll crush them!”

    “The milky smell comes all the way from here! Kkeut!”

    “Here we come again! Did you miss me?”

    “…To the location of all troops..!”

    “Ah…”

    Only then did the volunteer soldiers begin to understand what the garrison soldiers were saying.

    “You damn bastards…”

    It was a moment when the hearts of the volunteer soldiers and the stationed soldiers became one.

    Meanwhile.

    The barbarians also began to attack the camp where the matchlock gun operation unit was located.

    “To the location of all troops!”

    “ Matchlock shooters, reload first! Let’s shoot from the first group as trained!”

    Gunners and archers waiting.

    Soon the order to shoot was given.

    From the muzzle of the matchlock, fire spewed out.
