"This woman is going crazy."

After the Ke family left, Wu Changshi, who walked out of the inner room, looked at Wen Zhenmeng, who had returned, and said.

In fact, it's not just him, but also Chen Renxi, Zhang Mingzhen, Xu Du and others are hiding in the inner room, Chen Renxi has been hiding in a shop in the city, there are too many shops opened by Nanzhili people in the capital, and behind these shops are gentry from all over the country, these shops are hiding for him, but it is a little difficult to get out of the city, after all, his image has long been pasted all over the city.

"It's just right to be crazy, so we don't have to go into trouble, but this person who digs the tunnel still needs to put some effort into it."

Wen Zhenmeng said.

He had already agreed to Hakka's plan.

In fact, he is taking the bait of the Luke clan, and the most effective way to deal with Yang Xin is indeed this.

It's not that they are really stupid, they are still worried about fighting with Yang Xin inconsequentially, just like the Hakka said, which time have they won in so many years? Even if you lose, you will also export experience, and the most effective way to deal with Yang Xin is to give him a bucket of gunpowder to break his bones, and if a bucket is not enough, he will pile up a cellar, he actually deliberately hung the Yinke clan himself.

This woman took the bait easily.

Now the Hakka has promised most of what needs to be done, providing houses for digging tunnels, which is not worth mentioning for Hakka at all.

Yang Xin's family is still in Xianyifang.

Apocalypse did build him a new house, but it became the current hospital.

Yang Xin's family actually lives in Xincheng, and the house in the capital only lives in the capital, and the Yang family doesn't have too many servants so far, so there is no need to live too big for a few people, and his three-entry small house is very good.

And the Hakka family has an industry in the capital, she was originally a Daxing person, and the Houke family of course wants to buy a lot of property in their current status, and they can find a place in Xianyifang casually, or nearby, the east side of Xianyifang is Anfufang, which is adjacent to the west wall of the imperial city. The remaining north of Mingyufang, west of Jinchengfang, south of Fucaifang, Wang Gongchang is in this square, but will definitely not choose there, because the topography of the capital is high in the north and low in the south, there are ponds everywhere, the most suitable is Mingyufang or Anfufang, the Yang family is in the southeast of Xianyifang.

The route is too long.

Diagonally inserted from Anfu Fang is the closest.

Of course, this is something that Hakka needs to worry about, and they only need to close the door, and it is impossible for anyone in the local area to dare to disturb their family's property.

But they won't provide manpower.

In this way, even if it is discovered, it is nothing more than someone renting a Hakka house.

In addition to the settlement or registration of outsiders in the capital, the rest are all rented houses, even the first assistant like Ye Xianggao is also renting a house in the capital, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty system are not allowed to buy houses outside their own nationality, nor can they buy land outside their own nationality, so even if Yang Xin wants to buy a piece of Macao land in Xiangshan County, he also has to operate Huang Ying into Xiangshan nationality.

Therefore, foreign Beijing officials like Wen Zhenmeng are all renting houses, and in the end, there are a large number of tenants in the capital, and some people rent Hakka houses to do bad things, at most it is a negligence, and no one will dare to implicate Hakka as a Hakka.

So the people who dig the tunnels have to come out this way.

"It's easy, just a letter, just find some miners from Yiwu."

Xu Du said.

He is a native of Dongyang and a famous high-roller in eastern Zhejiang.

Originally, after Xu Honggang's death, the Xu family declined, and was persecuted by the magistrate, and it happened that his mother died, and tens of thousands of friends were buried in various places, and Xu Du simply raised his arms and rebelled.

It's easy to recruit a group of miners in Yiwu.

Wen Zhenmeng nodded with satisfaction.

Now that their plan is decided, it's all that's left to do with it.

"It's too much trouble, it's better to get a carriage."

Zhang Mingzhen said.

Apparently he was still looking for this simple and quick way.

Of course, none of these strategizing celebrities paid attention to him, what does this reckless man know, if it weren't for his good skills and a group of people around him who could fight, these celebrities didn't want to cooperate with him.

No brains at all.

Yang Dudu didn't know that a group of Ming Guy Fawkes had begun to set up a gunpowder plot against him.

However, the gunpowder problem in the capital is indeed in need of reform.

"This can't be done, so much gunpowder is stored here, if it explodes, it can really raze Fucaifang."

Yang Xin looked at the big cellar in front of him and said.

In fact, it is a very deep well, theoretically thirty feet deep, surrounded and bottom by bricks and treated to prevent water seepage, it can be said that it is cold and damp, and the gunpowder is like bulk grain, directly filled in this huge cellar, this is the powder magazine of the Ming Dynasty. The gunpowder of the Ming Dynasty was not a large wooden barrel as imagined, and then stacked in a warehouse, in fact, all of them were stuffed into the cellar in this way, and the cold of the cellar was used to ensure that no open flames ignited.

Thunder and lightning are also avoided as well.

That's why there were a bunch of big craters on the flat ground after the explosion of the Wang Gong factory.

Because the gunpowder was originally inside, after the explosion because of the chain reaction, the gunpowder cellars were detonated one after another, which is why the power is great, in fact, the power of gunpowder in the open environment is really limited, but tens of thousands of catties are stuffed into the cellars one by one, and there are heavy stone slabs sealed on it, once ignited, it is not a standard tunnel blasting. It is said that there is another year in history that is a big explosion, and Yang Xin doesn't want this big explosion to still happen, whether it is aliens, meteorites, or even more exaggerated nuclear explosions, it is only right that these gunpowder should be cleaned up to a suitable place as soon as possible.

"If you don't save here, where will you store?"

Xu Guangqi said.

Indeed, this is the most reasonable storage location.

First of all, gunpowder must be stored inside the city, because the capital is a fortress, and what if gunpowder is stored outside the fortress, once the war is too late to move in?

Again, this is why the gunpowder factory must also be in the city.

In fact, the explosion of the powder magazine in the Ming Dynasty has been continuous, the most recent is the thirty-third year of Wanli, but not in the Wang Gong factory, but in the armor factory, when an officer received gunpowder, because the gunpowder was stored for too long, the plate formed a big lump, he found an axe to crush like a brain, and as a result, an axe was broken even to him, and it also caused heavy casualties in the entire warehouse.

By the time of Chongzhen, it exploded almost every three or five times.

The most exaggerated Anmin factory, that is, Wang Gongchang, changed the vest, and more than 10,000 people were killed and injured in an explosion, and the city wall of Xuanwumen was blown up.

That one was much more ruthless than the Apocalypse Big Bang.

At least the apocalypse explosion did not hurt the city wall at all, not only was there no record of the city wall being injured, but there was no record of damage to the nearest procuratorate elephant house, which was a few hundred meters to the south.

This area is the farthest point in the city from the palace.

In addition, there is a little distance between it and the city wall, so you don't have to worry about destroying the city wall directly after the explosion.

"Scatter, don't use this kind of big cellar, use cement to build a slightly smaller cellar at a certain distance on the inside of the city wall, a mile away, and then use the same cement outside, build a very thick shell, and even add steel bars to the cement. But this shell can't be the same thickness, it should be thin in the direction of nearby uninhabited places, such as ponds, temples, etc., as long as it can block the shells of the Hongyi cannon, but it must be thickened and reinforced in densely populated areas.

This cellar should be large and shallow.

The gunpowder should not be compacted, it should be as loose as possible, and there should be a stone grid in the middle."

Yang Xin said.

"What does that mean?"

Xu Guangqi said unexpectedly.

"Just like a, the thin side collapses first, and when the thin side collapses, the force of the explosion is released, and the power of the gunpowder to loosen is weaker than compacting, and if there is a cavity on it, it will not explode all at once, but will explode in the cavity. When the force of the deflagration is strong enough, it will break the thin side, and finally release the already weakened power to this side, because with this release, the thick side will not necessarily be washed away.

Eventually, only one direction will be affected.

Moreover, the closed cement room is also easy to manage, so you don't have to worry about thunder and lightning, and you don't have to worry about rain and moisture, and the effect is similar to that of such a cellar.

If possible, it is best to empty a certain distance in front of this thin one, of course, it would be better if you chose the kind that was originally a pond, each cellar did not store more than 10,000 catties, so that the power after the final explosion was also limited, and the interval of one mile and the cement shell outside could ensure that the explosion near the powder magazine would not be affected.

Absolutely not going to do anything like this.

In the future, our gunpowder will be used more and more, and it will be used more and more frequently, in case one day we accidentally detonate a cellar, and everything around it will be detonated, and there must be millions of catties here, right? As soon as such a powder magazine explodes, the entire Fucaifang will be flattened, especially this kind of underground compacted gunpowder, what is the difference between this and digging a tunnel to blow up the city wall? Speaking of digging tunnels to blow up the city wall, there are not so many piles, so it is already very amazing if it is only within a thousand catties, and this cellar must not be nearly nearly 100,000 catties at least? ”

Yang said.

In total, at least one or two thousand tons of gunpowder were needed.

"That's not easy to manage."

The eunuch in charge of the factory said with a sad face.

This is what he manages, whether it is manufacturing or storage, of course, it is easy to manage it when it is centralized, and it is scattered around dozens of miles, how can he manage it?

"You stupid, you can't be responsible for building these powder magazines!"

Yang Xin said speechlessly.

"Well, the little ones are stupid."

The eunuch in charge of the factory said with a smile.

Indeed, he is definitely responsible for the construction, and he only makes gunpowder pipe gunpowder here, and how many are he can catch a year at most? The construction of this circle of gunpowder magazines cannot be carried out at all without hundreds of thousands of taels, and as the chief of the project, he has to make as much money, and the cost is not up to him.

It's stupid.

Xu Guangqi looked at the shameless faces of these eunuchs and traitors speechlessly.

"I'll play Your Majesty, you find a way to get my uncle by yourself, in short, this project must be fast, make money and make money, but cutting corners is definitely not good, at most you have more time to report the account, otherwise you will be the first to break your bones if you accidentally explode one day."

Yang Xin said.
