My interpretation of the illustration and accompanying text from the 14th century A.D. Huo Long Jing, XiangyangFu edition.

How effective was it?
Liang Jieming
As effective as can be expected for any floating bomb.

A reconstruction of this may be in the works.

Awesome! I previously created the wikipedia article on the Huolongjing, added the original picture of the Huolongjing to the article, and edited the wiki article on naval mines to include this. Yet I have never seen it drawn like this before, the original picture is somewhat amateur compared to Liang's drawing.

You did that with wiki? I'm impressed! Very nicely done.
