All night long, Cao Mingli was there thinking about the words of the adult, the adult was the coat of the prince's family, and he won the trust of the prince, and the words he said must be the thoughts of the prince.

Great Qing and Great Shun ......

The question is, what do people on both sides think in their hearts?

What the prince thinks is that the time is ripe to give Li Zicheng a knife, so what does Li Zicheng think?

……

"This thing is a flowering bomb?"

Holding a dozen pounds of cannonballs in his hand, Li Zicheng asked happily.

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, this, this is the flowering bomb."

Zhang Laoshun replied nervously, he is a craftsman in Wang Gong's factory, and he has been making firearms for Daming for generations, and now that Dashun is here, he naturally wants to make firearms for Dashun, but he didn't expect that he would be summoned by the emperor because he made a flowering bullet.

"Tell me how this flowering bomb was made."

Looking at the submissive craftsman in front of him, Li Zicheng asked amiably.

"This flowering bomb is not difficult, it is no different from the flowering bomb in the past, that is, an empty shell is cast with iron, filled with gunpowder, and then a twist, and when the twist is burned in the place, it will naturally explode. The key is to ...... on this cork"

Zhang Laoshun mentioned that he was familiar with the field, but he was not as nervous as before.

"In the past, most of the fuzes we used to start gunpowder were to install a twist in the reed pipe, and cut the corresponding length according to the distance to be hit before loading, and then ignite the fuse on the shell from the muzzle before firing, and then ignite the twist on the fire door to fire."

Li Zicheng nodded and said.

"That's so simple, when opening the shell, first load the gunpowder into the medicine room, not to mention, but also stuff another layer of wood, and then more than an inch thick of soil, and then put the shell into the breech, when firing, first ignite the fuse on the shell from the muzzle, and then light the twist on the fire door, which is really cumbersome."

Li Zicheng is no stranger to flowering bombs, when fighting with the Ming army, he also encountered the attack of flowering bombs, and he also used flowering bombs to hit the officers and soldiers, but it is not easy to fight flowering bullets, and even accidentally may explode the cannon.

"That's the reason, this new type of flowering shell is not the same in this place, this cannonball is stuffed with a wooden stopper, the wooden plug is filled with compacted gunpowder, as long as the cannonball is loaded in a wooden bowl, and the gunpowder bag is installed under the wooden bowl, when it is fired, it will naturally light the wooden twist of the cannon head......"

Looking at this shell, Li Zicheng nodded slightly, it was this inconspicuous thing that blew up Donglu out of Liaodong, and even now, when those Donglu carried the cannon of the Pingyu Army, they all looked like they were scared of this flowering bomb to the bones.

How awesome is this thing?

Although he had seen them shoot flowering bombs, to be honest, Li Zicheng didn't see how powerful it was, but out of caution, he still asked everyone to do it according to the method taught by the Tartars, after all, this group of Ming troops is different from the Ming army he has seen in the past!

When it was over, Li Zicheng naturally praised Zhang Laoshun a few more words, and then ordered someone to reward him with ten taels of silver.

"This Ming army fights, does it all rely on this thing? If that's the case, the gun shelter can be put in a little more ......."

Thinking about the anti-artillery shed, Li Zicheng walked to a table, and the model on the table was brought by the Dongyu, which was the method they had summed up against the guns of the Pingyu army after they fled to Mongolia and based on their experience in Liaodong.

Long trenches, anti-artillery sheds.

Of course, these can only block the artillery, and what else is needed to stop the opponent's attack?

"Fortunately, tens of thousands of bird guns were captured in the capital, and there are so many franc machine guns, otherwise this anger may not be as much as his, this time, since your surname Zhu has come to the door, don't blame Lao Li for being polite!"

Speaking to himself, Li Zicheng said again.

"Well, I have to order the soldiers below to prepare more big gifts for them......"

Muttering to himself, Li Zicheng finally sighed again.

"Just wait for this battle to be over, you can dominate the world, and when the time comes, the world will still be surnamed Li after all......"

The big people have the ideals of the big people, and the little people have the thoughts of the little people, which is different from the world and power that the big people think, for the little people, what they think and think a lot of the time is nothing more than surviving!

Survive!

These words may seem simple, but for the little people, it is precisely the most difficult.

The famine caused by the disaster made them face the situation of starvation, and they became thieves for a mouthful of food, and while they were full, they faced a new test of life and death - the battlefield.

In fact, in the troubled times, the most helpless are those little people, whether a grain of sand falls on a person in the era is a mountain, no one knows, but in the troubled times, the vast majority of people are just duckweed, for them, they can only go with the flow,

Whether it is life or death is often just a matter of luck.

In Zhang Fucai's opinion, his luck is not ivory, he even belongs to the lucky people, he has fought many tough battles, and he has never been injured. Although he was accustomed to seeing death, he never dared to be careless.

Alive!

For many years, Zhang Fucai has only had such a thought in his heart, and it is the same now, so when Dongyu said that he wanted to add one foot of thick soil to the shed, he added two feet, why? What if a foot of dirt can't stop it?

"Brother Zhang, you say, what are we digging such a long ditch for? In the past two days, the ditch has been dug, could it be that those officers and soldiers are all cavalry? ”

Listening to the words of the brothers, Zhang Fucai just said with a cigarette pouch and pot in his mouth.

"It doesn't matter if they're cavalry or infantry, anyway, let us dig a ditch, let's dig it, if this thing can save your life, dig it accurately, and that anti-artillery shed, get a few more, it's not like a wooden beam or something, there are a few door panels on the top, maybe it can also come in handy, this kind of thing, no one can say for sure......"

But it's always right to be careful in what you do, and that's why he's survived to this point. It's because of this carefulness, if you are not careful like everyone else, it is estimated that this little life will not know where to lose it for a long time.

"Brother Zhang, look at you, be careful that this is necessary."

In fact, the big guy also knows his thoughts, and there is always no big mistake in being careful on the battlefield, but it is inevitable that he will nag two sentences.

"As long as you want to live, you have to be careful, it's okay to be tired now, but if it comes in handy at that time, it's a life-saving thing, what's more than a little tired?"

As he spoke, someone pointed to the sky in the distance.

"Brother Zhang, look, what is that......"
