Chapter 868: Cannonballs

However, fortunately, Jiaozhi was extinguished too quickly, and the strength of the Great Song Dynasty was obviously underestimated by various countries.

Srivijaya Qi made it clear that he was not optimistic about the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty Sailor to destroy Pu Shima, so he prescribed this prescription so generously, wanting to pick up the cheap later.

Hehehe, I just wanted to win a Singapore, but it also came with a Kuala Lumpur, this big tonic, I have to take it hard if I don't take it.

The question now is whether to use all his strength to fight the lion and the rabbit, whether to do it now, or to wait for the third brother and Zhao Zongyou to come back and then do it together.

Su You couldn't sit still, and quickly ran to Ning Haijun to find Wang Shao, how can you do this?

Wang Shao flipped out the chart and first talked about where those two places were.

The data left by Zhang San is very rough, and it can be seen that in order to make money, the maritime merchants stopped less if they could, and they walked on a long line.

However, the coastlines on both sides of the Marina can be roughly connected.

With his memory, Su You took a pencil and drew two circles on the location of Singapore and Kuala Lumpur on the chart: "It's roughly in these two locations." ”

Wang Shao took a look: "Well, the place where soldiers must fight, with these two places, the entrance to the South China Sea is in my pocket, and it must be taken!" ”

"How to take it?" Su You was a little unsure: "We have a total of eight ships, plus my Flying Fish, there are only nine." ”

"Enough! As long as they can be blocked in the harbor, nine ships are enough! ”

"Don't make a fuss! What I want is total annihilation, leaving no trouble! Su You thought for a while: "How about letting Yang Congxian and their Guangnan Navy Division cooperate?" ”

Wang Shao smiled: "Don't be stupid, if you want to move the Guangnan Water Division, you have to ask for the Holy Decree first, and it's too late in time." We have to get rid of Pu Shima before the envoys return to the country, and declare the national prestige of the Great Song Dynasty in the South China Sea. ”

"So what's going on?" Su You is accustomed to flat pushing, and he doesn't like to fight this kind of unprepared battle.

Wang Shao said: "You don't have to worry about the military, gather the companions of all the countries, these people have power in their hands, if you want to take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty, you must first hand over the name of the vote, and use them!" ”

Only then did Su You remember that there was also a group of pirates under his command, so he was a little relieved: "That's about the same, then I'll go to Li Dujian and persuade him to agree to go to the army." ”

Wang Shao said: "If you have enough ammunition, you can really not use ballistas, and add ballistas to the deck of your Flying Fish!" And ballista shells, have enough for me. ”

Su You turned around and left: "This is easy to do, I'll prepare as much as you want!" ”

Wang Shao glared: "This is a military order!" Give me at least 30,000 pieces! ”

Su You waved his hand: "Fifty thousand!" Flip it for you! ”

"Damn!" Wang Shao even came out with Su You's mantra: "How can you do it?!" ”

Su You pretended to be the same as Wang Shao: "If you can integrate those companions, I can conjure up 50,000 ballista shells for you, this is called a specialization in the art industry!" I'll give it to you in five days! ”

Su You put forward to him the desire of the maritime merchants of the South China Sea countries for a peaceful trade environment in the South China Sea, and then handed over the financial statements of the South China Sea material exchange meeting to him, and then checked the map of the South China Sea, Li Shunju obediently followed Su You's idea to appease the merchants and envoys.

According to Su You, it is not too late for them to set off after the Great Song military operation is ready and they leave the port.

So Li Shunju took the identity of the closest comrade-in-arms of the official family, sent cordial care to the envoys and maritime merchants of various countries, and held banquets of various names every day, and also held a "travel" conference such as Chengdu in Shuzhong, playing from the shore to the sea, from the sea to the island, delicacies and wine, silk and bamboo songs, and also brought dozens of beautiful women, so that the maritime merchants were happy, and sent an urgent report to their fellow villagers.

Hurry up, in addition to Han Han Shaobao, there is also a Han Han eunuch, really stupid people have a lot of money, come quickly!

It only took three days for Su You to prepare 50,000 ballista shells for Wang Shao.

For no other reason, the cement dries in a day, and then it has to be charged.

The coconut oil processing industry in Yezhou has lost too many coconut shells.

The coconut stalk was dug up, and it was to be used to grind the beads.

Glue the coconut shell with cement on the outside, and pull the horizontal and vertical nicks, which is the bullet shell.

Rice husk is another thing that can not be more, rice husk is dried and ground into powder, which is the stabilizer of nitroglycerin, adding part of potassium nitrate, which is the formula of yellow explosives that Su oil has explored before, mainly used in explosive bags and blasting cylinders.

The coconut holes are all dug by the machine, the size is exactly the same, Su oil made a cement cover, usually covered with a cement cover, sealed with wax, when you need to use the cover, insert the fire detonator with the fire rope, and even directly insert the fire rope in an emergency.

Thunder mercury used for fire detonators, cochin mercury, which is a famous specialty in the Jin Dynasty.

Wang Shao looked at the boxes of cannonballs moving towards the ship: "This trick ...... Zhang Xun didn't borrow arrows so fast, right? ”

Su You was very proud: "This is still coconut shell after selection, otherwise there are more, those who used to be called craftsmen, we are now called industry!" ”

After speaking, he touched his nose: "Although it is still a handicraft ......"

Wang Shao said: "I have already asked clearly, Pu Shima's sailors got a powerful firearm from Da Shi, which is said to be able to breathe out fire, and it cannot be extinguished after falling into the enemy ship, so it can be so arrogant." ”

Su You nodded: "Then we can't let their boats get closer, we also have that kind of thing, and the effect is even better than theirs, but our usage is much more advanced than theirs." ”

"When the time comes, remember to torture them, ask them where that thing came from, it's a liquid deposit, called oil, which is very useful to us."

Wang Shao asked, "Is it the kind of planter?" ”

Su You said: "There is a high probability that it is that kind of thing, otherwise, the cost will be too high." ”

Today, wildfires are common in the forests and grasslands of Western Xia, and the main cause is not climate change.

Instead, it was found that the gasoline in the petroleum extract was too dangerous to store or transport, and it was useless to hoard it.

So it is usually burned, and the pure black smoke is used to make toner, which is used to produce ammunition and ink ingots.

When the southeast wind rises in summer, it is simply pulled to the grassland of the Western Xia people, and the thing is really spectacular and terrifying to burn.

The rest of kerosene, diesel, lubricating oil, asphalt, is the good stuff.

Wang Shao has been in Shaanxi for many years, so of course he knows this thing.

Su You said: "The rest of the military supplies, I went to Shen Cunzhong to replenish it, he bought a lot of rice from the Cham people, and there was a lot of canned fish." ”

Wang Shao nodded: "Then we will set off, plus Wei Shou'an's sailor, it can be regarded as a mighty one." ”

The military strength brought by Wang Shao this time, including eight warships including the Taishan Flying Fish, and the temporarily modified Flying Fish, also included the Ninghai New Army and Wei Shou'an's old Jiaozhi Naval Division, which used the sea ships surrendered by the Jiaozhi Naval Division.

All sea ships are also equipped with ballistas made by Kodaka Xiangye, which can be regarded as waste utilization.

Wang Shao was the commander of the capital, Sun Neng was the deputy commander, and Wei Shou'an was the queen.

Liu Shiheng was the vanguard, and he had already rushed to Meizhou in advance, taking the pirates, no, the envoys sent by the Great Song Dynasty to various countries.

After loading the shells and sending the warship away, the Ning Navy Wharf was suddenly more than half empty, and Su You rushed to the Tzu Chi Institute in Jiaozhou City to visit his wife who had not seen him for many days.

Tzu Chi Yuan is now a big hospital in Jiaozhou City, similar to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital in later generations, with the front store and back yard, pharmacy staff, and counters are all Chinese.

At the entrance is the counter of several departments to diagnose the pulse, where several brothers and uncles of the Heavenly Master Dao look at the pulse, and behind the counter is the counter for grabbing medicine, and behind the counter is a chest of drawers for various medicinal materials, which occupies a whole wall.

The large pharmacy is full of medicinal fragrances, and entering through the side door of the pharmacy is a compound with another gate to enter and exit, and many patients who need to be hospitalized are admitted here.

There are also many female nurses, who Shi Wei found from the huge group of widows in Jiaozhou City, and many of them are even family members of eunuch and post-party officials.

Many of these people can read and write, and they belong to a group of educated people, Shi Wei begged Su You to exempt them from their guilt and invite them to study medicine in the Tzu Chi Hospital.
