中国古代火炮之王

The king of artillery pieces in ancient China

中国古代火砲在清代发展到最高峰。除与当时清代雄厚的物质基础和军事实力有关外,其中还凝聚看比利时传教士南怀仁的精心设计。从现存的一尊号称“中国古代火砲之王”来看,即足以显示当时造砲技术的水平之高。

The development of artillery pieces in ancient China had reached its heights in the Qing Dynasty. True, this is related to the rich material basis and military strength then. but the careful design made by the missionary Verdinandus Verbiest from Belgium can not be ignored. From an existing so-called 'the king of artillery pieces'. we can see the superb skill of artillery-making at that time.
