Bailiyan is almost certain that this "bone-eating ecstasy cream" is white phosphorus, and the ignition point of white phosphorus is only 40 degrees, which means that it is extremely flammable at room temperature, so the original preservation method can only be soaked in water, otherwise it will spontaneously combust as soon as the temperature is high. The patriots will only make it into lumps and wrap them in oil wax, both to prevent the exposed white phosphorus from being dispersed in the water, and also to make it easy to use.

White phosphorus, like napalm, is ignited and contaminated with the skin, and cannot be removed at all, and even the best measure is to cut off the contaminated parts along with the flesh. Even when immersed in water, the fire cannot be extinguished until the white phosphorus is completely burned out.

As a result, white phosphorus is so harmful that it is strictly prohibited from being used in weapons in the United Nations Convention, but there is no such constraint at present.

And combustion is not the most terrible thing about white phosphorus, its most terrible thing is burning and gas poisoning.

When white phosphorus is burned, it produces toxic phosphating gas, which can kill people in a few grams. At the moment, white phosphorus is more harmful than any weapon, even more powerful than a gun.

The biggest advantage of white phosphorus is that it can burn through almost all common substances, so even steel can burn through.

At present, the bow and arrow are good for heavy infantry, or light infantry with armor, the lethality rate of one arrow and two arrows is very low, and heavy armor is often shot into a hedgehog, as long as it does not hit the vital point, the soldier can still continue to fight, so there is a heavy crossbow. But crossbows are inefficient to fire and expensive to manufacture, so crossbows are far less equipped than bows.

But if white phosphorus is used on the rocket, it means that if you are hit by a white phosphorus arrow, you will almost definitely die. Even if it is only stabbed in the armor, the violent combustion of white phosphorus will instantly burn through the armor to form molten iron, and then burn all the way to the human body.

Even if you don't get shot, the poisonous smoke produced by white phosphorus is enough to kill people, so this is the real killer weapon of the country.

It is conceivable that under the simultaneous firing of tens of thousands of archers in a battle array, one arrow can kill you, and the terror of its power is unprecedented. If the Xian army crosses the river from the Sishui River to fight, what awaits the Xian army under the rash fierce battle will be tens of thousands of white phosphorus arrow clusters.

Baili Yankou said that the benefits and disadvantages were clear, and everyone listened to it and was skeptical, especially the king of Xian:

"According to Aiqing, this thing is really good."

"Yes, my lord, as long as this thing is contaminated, it cannot be washed away at all, so after the fire, you can only cut the flesh to protect yourself, otherwise you will burn through the flesh and bones until you burn people to death. If it is used for rockets, even if it is a heavily armored infantry army, as long as an arrow is nailed to the armor, it will definitely die, and it is very tragic. ”

"Can't you use the method of burying calcium carbide to cut off the air and extinguish it?"

Zhao Xun said, Bai Liyan shook his head again and again:

"Hardly possible. Even if calcium carbide enters the water, it will only release heat, and will not burn violently, white phosphorus can still burn after igniting under water, and white phosphorus is sticky, once it is contaminated and difficult to go, the human body is contaminated with open flames, it can not be quickly got rid of it like calcium carbide, you can only watch it burn through your own flesh and bones, and you can't bury people alive.

I think you should have heard that the mass grave can occasionally see erratic ghost fires at night, which is actually the phosphorus produced after the corpse decomposes, which burns up after the high temperature in summer. This thing can still be lit underground, let alone used on the battlefield. ”

At this time, Nuo interjected

"But since it is such a powerful weapon, why should the defense of the country be so arrogant and insult my king, this is unreasonable."

"Not bad." Lu Gao agreed, twisted his short beard under his chin and then said: "If it is really so powerful, it would be too ostentatious for the defenders to threaten our country before they enter the battle. ”

"What Nuo Qing and Lu Qing said coincides with the widows, and the defense of the country is so perverse and rampant, called peace, but it is actually to provoke the widows to send troops, so is it not a contradiction."

"No, the minister has just said that this white phosphorus can not be overheated, and if it is overheated, it will spontaneously combust, and the defense of the country has been planned for a long time, so he chose to deploy troops at this time, and he must defeat the main force of Changsun before March next year. The land of Changsun Qicheng is hotter in spring, summer and autumn, and it is even hotter in summer, only the southern counties are cooler in spring, and there is snow in winter.

Second, the harm of white phosphorus is not known to the people of the world, if it is not for the ministers to see through, the king and you will definitely think that it is a bluff of the country, and the defense of the country at this time will secretly make it public, which is not only intimidation, but also not to take advantage of the harm of white phosphorus that our monarchs and ministers do not know, and lure our army to attack him. If our army rashly crosses the Sishui River to attack the country, it will not be able to restrain itself at all and will suffer a crushing defeat. At this time, morale has been frustrated, elite casualties, and it will be difficult to have confidence in another battle.

Third, since the defense of the country has such harmful things, it must be to fight a quick battle on the northern front, defeat the eldest grandson as soon as possible, and then mobilize troops to the east to guard against our army. Therefore, our army will transfer troops and grass at this time, and it will not be in place until the beginning of spring next year at the latest, so that Wei Guo is very likely to have defeated the main force of Changsun from the northern front and quickly pounced on the eastern front.

Therefore, Lu Jia came not only to persuade the king to stay still, but also to lure the king to send troops, no matter what the result of the river, our army is not conducive to our army to fight against it. ”

Lu Jia lobbied the Xian King to press the army, but in fact, the Xian State was not ready for war, and the Wei Guo would devote all his strength to defeat the main force of Changsun in three to four months, tear the gap in the northern front and then take advantage of the situation to expand the results, and when the Xian army was assembled and mobilized, the Wei Guo would have already transferred part of the main force of the northern front to the eastern front.

Use top-secret weapons to show strength, salute first and then soldiers, Wei Guo thought that the monarchs and ministers of Xian Guo did not know the goods, and rashly sent troops to defeat the North in anger, and then Wei Guo shocked Jin and Zhiguo with the fiasco of Xian State, so that they did not dare to act rashly, so that they could stabilize the situation on the Eastern Front and continue to expand the results of the war to the north, which was the calculation of Wei Guo.

As he spoke, the sound of pigs outside the hall burst, and King Xian was suddenly a little annoyed:

"Come on, why is the sound of pigs outside the hall!"

Jiang Hao stepped forward and leaned over and said:

"It is the pigs, sheep and chickens ordered by the Marquis of Yongxing, as well as a piece of iron armor, to be prepared outside the main hall for later use."

King Xian was puzzled when he heard the news, so he asked Bailiyan:

"What does Yongxing Hou mean?"

"King Qiqi, the minister is worried that you don't know the dangers of white phosphorus, so I asked Lord Jiang to prepare living creatures and iron armor for testing."

"In this case, Qing and the others will go with the widow to find out how powerful this thing is."

"No!"

Everyone spoke in unison, and then went to the courtyard outside the palace, a sheep, a pig, and a chicken in an iron cage, unaware of the doom.

Baili Yan took the treasure box, fished out the white phosphorus, and after breaking it, it was really powdery white phosphorus, if it wasn't for the current temperature, it might spontaneously combust at any time in summer.

Carefully take out a small amount of white phosphorus with a copper spoon and put it on the iron armor prepared, light it with a match, the first is a blue flame, after a burst of white eyes, it burns violently, and from time to time you can hear the metal crisp sound when the iron armor is deformed, and King Xian and others are shocked when they see it.

"Aiqing, this fire is so scorching!"

"Yes, the king, a large amount of white phosphorus gathers and burns to produce a strong light and dazzling, but this is not the most important point, when the white phosphorus is burned out, the king will know how cruel this white phosphorus is."

The accumulation and combustion of large amounts of white phosphorus can produce amazing brightness, so it can also be mixed with magnesium powder to make flares and even incendiary bombs.

After waiting for a long time, the white phosphorus burned out, and when the poisonous smoke dissipated, everyone was shocked when they watched it, only to see that the chest of the iron armor had been burned through the hole the size of the sea bowl, and this was not counting, the stone slab ground where the iron armor was close had been burned out of a black pit with a depth of half an inch, which was shocking.

"The king, Zhao Shuai, and all of you, have all seen it, once this white phosphorus is contaminated, even the iron armor will be difficult to parry, let alone flesh and blood."

Zhao Xunrong Ma can be said to have seen a lot of knowledge in his life, but he also saw this shocking thing for the first time in his life:

"This thing is more than ten times better than oil and hot oil, and I will do nothing about it in the future!"

"I'm afraid I can't resist it, and I can only hope that the defense country will not be able to produce it in large quantities, or that it will be wiped out of our army. Next, replace people with livestock, in order to test the damage of white phosphorus to the body, please the king and you, retreat away, one side is smoked by poison. ”

Continue to use pigs to simulate the human epidermal cautery test, use sheep to simulate the cautery test after clothing hair contaminated with white phosphorus, and at the same time tie chickens to the edge of the iron cage to simulate the poison gas fumigation test. When the white phosphorus ignited, the pigs and sheep let out a painful howl, which was heart-wrenching and terrifying.

At the same time, Bailiyan did not forget to order the water dragon team to spray water on the experimental livestock, with little effect, as soon as the water column was moved, the white phosphorus immediately deflagred, burning more violently, because the oxygen decomposed by water vapor stimulated the combustion of phosphorus.

The water dragon team is the establishment of the forbidden army's internal security department for firefighting, which is roughly equivalent to the fire brigade, but it is not trained, the equipment is stored in the warehouse, and the personnel are usually transferred to the forbidden army, so it cannot be regarded as a professional fire brigade.

In recent years, a number of steam engine pumps have been designed and produced to improve mine drainage, and the water dragon team has been equipped with manpower pumps. When using, two people hold the lever at both ends, one person presses and one person warps, so that the water storage in the tank can be sprayed out. For this purpose, a batch of rubber water hoses are specially customized for water spraying, which is extremely effective for the rescue of large wooden buildings.

The white phosphorus on pigs and sheep burned for a full moment, and before it burned out, the pigs and sheep were already dying, and it was not white phosphorus that was burned in the end, but the fat of muscle tissue. The chicken tied to the side also died early in the morning because of the poisonous gas, and the white phosphorus burning wound directly penetrated the muscles and bones into the inner cavity, and the blood gushed like a column, and the tragedy of death was unbearable.

Lu Gao and Zhao Xun moved their cheeks, the green tendons on their foreheads were tense and silent, the two of them were all fighting to go through the bloody wind and rain, facing such a tragic trauma, it was something he had never seen in his life, and on the battlefield, people were no longer saved.

What is even more terrifying is that in the face of such an attack, the physical damage is secondary, and the blow to the morale and morale of the soldiers is undoubtedly devastating
