Chapter 90: A Little Test of Gunpowder
Song Wenjian asked Wu Guanhai to buy things in the county seat, which were sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal.
The laws of the Moon Dynasty stipulated that ordinary people could not possess firearms except for the army directly under them. The firearms referred to by the Moon Dynasty are guns and cannons, and do not include gunpowder.
For example, some gentry set up workshops to produce fireworks and firecrackers, and gunpowder was used.
However, the production process of gunpowder is complicated, and it is generally only known by the government or big families.
But Song Wenjian has a detailed encyclopedia book, how can he not understand the production of gunpowder?
After he brought back sulfur, saltpeter, charcoal and other things from the county seat to the Yangqing Township Office, he started messing around in his house.
In order to increase the lethality of gunpowder, Song Wenjian also added iron nails to it.
When it was made, in the middle of the night, Song Wenjian and Jian Yuping went to the outskirts of Yangqing Township to experiment. After verifying that there was no problem, Song Wenjian came back to continue the production, and he wanted to use gunpowder to deal with the Luogang bandits.
But time is limited, Song Wenjian only made about forty of them, and gave ten to Jian Yuping's side, and he only had about thirty on his side.
Dai Wang and the others wasted a dozen just now, which made him feel so distressed.
And what's worse is that if you can't blow up the bandits to the point of losing their armor, they will lose their armor and be killed by others in a while.
Song Wenjian panicked, Dai Wang, they disrupted his plan, they might have an accident tonight.
"Dai Wang, if you don't ignite the gunpowder this time before throwing it out, then we will die, understand?" Song Wenjian shouted angrily.
Dai Wang nodded solemnly and said, "Township Chief, we know, we will definitely light the primer and throw it out." ”
Song Wenjian sighed secretly, he had only made gunpowder for the first time, and the lethality was not strong.
After testing it just now, the two gunpowder thrown by him and Da Niu only killed and injured a few people.
Even if the gunpowder that Dai Wang threw out this time could explode, it would kill dozens of casualties at most, and there were dozens of bandits.
It is not appropriate for these dozen or so people to rush out to fight with dozens of bandits, it seems that they can't be killed tonight, so they have to guard in the township.
But staying in the township, a dozen people can't beat dozens of bandits, and it seems that their lives are hanging in the balance.
It's a pity that Dai Wang's dozen gunpowder just thrown by them, otherwise all of them would have exploded, and they should have killed and injured a lot of bandits.
If I die tonight, will Mo Xintong shed tears for me?
Will she remarry? Song Wenjian's heart was not a taste all of a sudden.
He crossed over without wearing a good background, was chased and killed, his father was in danger, and his wife was framed.
If he doesn't fight with the Chen family, he doesn't fight with splashes, he doesn't fight with bandits, he will be harmed by others.
No, I'm not going to lose, I'm not going to die. Song Wenjian looked at the bandit in front of him and screamed secretly.
Old man Hong, who was in the back, heard the explosion, looked up at the sky strangely and said, "Huh? Why is it thundering? It seems that the weather is pretty good tonight, so it won't rain, right? ”
The big black next to him scolded angrily: "Beat your mother's thunder, Song Wenjian and they used gunpowder to deal with us." But fortunately, there was a problem with their gunpowder, and the ones thrown out of the back didn't go off. Hahaha, how can this gunpowder be so easy to get? Even the gunpowder made by the Armament Bureau under the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court did not sound eight times out of ten. Little ones, let's rush in. ”
Civilian gunpowder and military gunpowder are completely different things, and those fireworks and firecrackers for civilian use are just small gunpowder, even if they are thrown on people's bodies, they can't kill people.
And military gunpowder is terrible, a large amount of sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal put together, if the proportion is slightly wrong, if it is not used well, it will cause a big explosion.
It is said that the craftsmen who make military gunpowder will not end up nine times out of ten. Therefore, how can the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry and Ware Bureau make it with their hearts? Many of the gunpowder produced could not hurt anyone, or even did not sound.
Therefore, Daikoku will not be worried. Like Song Wenjian, it is estimated that the folk gunpowder was obtained from a fireworks and firecracker workshop, and it is not in the way.
In order to boost morale, Da Hei is to lead everyone forward by example.
But how did Da Hei know that Song Wenjian had the advanced technology of gunpowder blending methods in later generations, which could be compared to these three-legged cat technologies in ancient times?
When the thieves saw the big boss taking the lead in the front, they all rushed forward as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
A dozen more black things were thrown out, and Big Black ignored them, thinking that these were dumb things and would not explode.
But when a black thing landed in front of his steed, it immediately made a terrible noise.
"Sss The horse was wounded, and jumped to his feet and threw the big black off his horse, almost trampling on his hooves.
Song Wenjian watched the dozen or so explosives blow up dozens of bandits, and secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity.
He was trying to tell everyone to keep an eye on the gate and the wall so that the bandits would not enter, when suddenly another explosion sounded on the ground.
"Ahhh Many of the thieves fell to the ground screaming.
"W-what's going on?" Song Wenjian's eyes widened in shock, why was there still gunpowder on the ground?
By the way, the gunpowder thrown by Dai Wang in the first round did not ignite, and the gunpowder in the second round ignited and exploded, and the sparks that splashed out ignited the primer of the gunpowder on the ground, so there was a second explosion.
There were many injured bandits lying on the ground, and Song Wenjian knew that their opportunity had come. "Hahaha, brothers, even God is helping us."
There was a shout of killing from the warehouse, Song Wenjian knew that it was time, and hurriedly asked Da Niu to open the door, and they went out to kill.
The big bull got down from the tiger on the mountain, wielding an iron rod and killing the big black.
When a thief saw this, he raised his knife and slashed at the body of the big bull.
But the power of the bull is infinite, and a stick knocks the thief's big knife away, and then a stick hits the opponent's head.
The thief fell to the ground and died too much to kill.
Dai Wang and the others also rushed out, and when they saw a bandit getting up from the ground, they hurriedly made up a knife and killed the other party.
For a time, dozens of people died on the bandits' side.
Where had Old Man Hong seen such a formation, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with weak legs and begged for mercy. "Township Chief, don't kill me."
Seeing that there were only more than 30 people on his side who could fight, and those people were still injured, Da Hei knew that they were not the opponents of Song Wenjian and the others.
and Song Wenjian knew early on that Old Man Hong was meticulous, so he must have been prepared, and it is estimated that the big black in the warehouse is also in danger.
If they wait for the new ladies in the warehouse to come around, they will no longer be able to escape.
Thinking of this, Da Hei shouted to his subordinates next to him, "Let's hurry up." ”
Those bandits were eager for Da Hei to give such an order, and immediately turned around and fled desperately behind. Now they can't wait for their father and mother to grow a few more legs.
"Township Chief, are we going to chase?" Seeing that the bandit had fled, Da Niu stopped and asked Song Wenjian.
"Don't chase after the poor." Song Wenjian shouted. "You come back and ask Dai Wang about these bandits about the situation in Luogang Mountain, and whoever doesn't say it, kill them on the spot."
"Yes, Chief." Da Niu walked up to a bandit with an iron rod and asked, "What did you say about the situation in Luogang Mountain?" ”
"I, I don't know." The bandit hesitated, trying to see how it went.
But the big bull didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and directly hit the thief's head with a stick.
With a "snap", the thief's head was opened, and all the red and white flowed out, terrifying.
The remaining thieves were so frightened that they hurriedly shouted, "Don't kill me, we say, there will be no concealment." ”
