"My Great Ming artifact is ten thousand enemies, as the ancestor said, it is very sharp and powerful, but unfortunately it is too heavy and inconvenient to use." Ma Xintian stood in the middle of the conference hall and said loudly: "That's because when I was designing and manufacturing Song Yingxing, Lord Song suffered from the effect of gunpowder, and a large amount of gunpowder must be poured into the mud ball, otherwise the explosion power is not enough, and the purpose of killing a large number of enemies will not be achieved, so that ten thousand enemies have to do it so hugely." ”

He raised the bamboo tube in his hand, as if it had been filled with nitroglycerin, and raised his voice excitedly: "But now, Lord Wang has mastered the ingenuity of heaven and concocted this powerful new gunpowder, a little new gunpowder can be worth five or six times the old gunpowder in the past, what does this mean?" Ladies and gentlemen, this means that we can put a small amount of gunpowder in this small bamboo tube, and it can be worth the power of a 10,000-strong enemy! ”

As soon as these words came out, they couldn't have been more thorough, and everyone immediately understood, it turned out that this domineering gunpowder, in addition to opening mountains and blasting stones, could also have such a wonderful use, in this way, isn't it equivalent to a miniaturized 10,000 enemies? And the power does not decrease but increases, the explosion is much more powerful than the 10,000 enemies who use black powder, and the weight is not very heavy, an ordinary soldier can throw it far away, if it is used in large quantities, it is simply the enemy's dead dream.

"In addition to gunpowder, you have to add some iron nails and gravel." Wang Huan added loudly.

The people present only felt a chill on their backs, and unconsciously shivered collectively, loading iron nails and gravel? Everyone immediately recalled the scene of the rocks flying in the woods when they tried to blow up, and they could feel the sense of speed of the stones shooting overhead when they were lying in the dirt pit.

This effect is much more powerful than a crossbow arrow, and the Musket Bird is no more than that.

Everyone looked at Wang Huan's gaze, and suddenly dodged a little, and installed iron nails in the miniaturized 10,000 enemies, will this give birth to a son is not *** Lord Wang is really ruthless.

"Your Excellency!" Ma Xintian slapped his ass expressionlessly.

Wang Huan stood up, walked to Ma Xintian's side, took the bamboo tube, Shi Shiran slashed it in the air, made a throwing motion, and said while doing it: "I calculated, select a bamboo pole with the thickness of the arm, and cut a one-foot-long section, which can be loaded with five taels of new gunpowder, five taels of iron nails and stones, a total of about one catty, ordinary soldiers, as long as a little training, there is no problem in throwing it out ten zhang away." ”

Ma Wannian didn't speak, and at this time he couldn't help but interject: "My lord, I can throw it out twenty zhang!" ”

Wang Huan nodded: "Indeed, it is possible for a person with divine power like Ma Gongzi to throw it farther away." ”

He walked in the hall, his eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, the corners of his mouth couldn't be suppressed, and his voice stirred: "Think about it, if on the battle formation, the two armies face each other, and the two sides are close to a distance of twenty zhang, and we suddenly throw out thousands of bamboo tubes and ten thousand enemies together, what will be the situation?" ”

Thousands of enemies?

Zu Bian and the others were already stunned, and they automatically imagined an unbelievable scene in their minds: on the battlefield, the ironclad soldiers, the warriors lined up, the enemy and the enemy gradually approached, and a life-and-death battle was about to begin, at this time, countless 10,000 enemies suddenly flew out from the top of their heads, roaring and smashing towards the enemy who knew nothing on the opposite side, the bamboo tubes with the greeting of death, "squeak" burned the fire rope lead, fell to the top of the opponent's head, and then exploded, accompanied by the loud sound of landslides and cracks, countless black mushroom clouds rose, Rain-like nails flew and stones smashed......

Hell!

It's so vicious, it's too powerful!

Everyone once again looked deeply at Wang Huan, Lord Wang was really dark.

But black to black, ruthless to ruthless, but we like it!

After a brief silence in the chamber, thunderous cheers rang out, and the ancestors roared inaudible cries from their mouths, pounding the table frantically; Ma Wannian's face was distorted, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh and shout well; Xu Tiezhu slapped his palm, his hands were red, and he didn't know it; Only Ma Xintian, a calm man, still stood in place lightly, watching quietly with his hands in his hands, but his eyes flashed with brilliance.

"If Lao Tzu had such a firearm in his hand in Liaodong back then, Daling City would not have lost it, and Shenyang City would not have lost it! So many brothers, they won't die in vain...... Woo! "Zubian has lost his temper.

Ma Xintian reached out and grabbed his shoulder, patted him gently, and said nothing.

Ma Wannian waved his fist and shouted: "My lord, such a firearm, please take a name, ten thousand enemies and ten thousand enemies shouted, some are too sorry for it." ”

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison: "Please name it!" ”

Wang Huan pinched the bamboo tube in his hand and crackled, his eyebrows spread, and he slammed one hand.

Everyone looked at him with anticipation.

Wang Huan swept his eyes with an awe-inspiring expression, and said extremely seriously: "Okay, I have decided that this firearm is called ...... Kill the bomb! ”

Kill the eggs? Everyone's expressions changed slightly.

It's weird.

But it's nothing, it doesn't matter what kind of egg it is, as long as it can blow up the tartar, it's a good egg, and everyone in the hall doesn't have the heart to tell whether it's an egg or a bullet, it's a time of celebration, why think about it so much.

Then there was a loud cry in the hall, "Kill the eggs!" Kill the eggs! The shouts rang out, and even the roof was about to be overturned, and the bamboo tube, like a treasure, was passed by everyone in turn to watch, and I couldn't wait to have two with me immediately.

But I can't rush this matter, and the pile of wet new gunpowder hasn't dried yet.

The gunpowder had to be dry and could not be exposed to the sun, so in the next few days of waiting time, Wang Huan was busy selecting a site around Wanshou Valley, preparing to build a gunpowder refinery, which must be far away from Wanshou City.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was a gunpowder field explosion in Beijing, the black powder almost collapsed a small half of the capital, and more than 10,000 people were killed and injured.

After searching for a long time, Wang Huan finally found a small valley in the wasteland thirty miles outside Wanshou Valley, which is surrounded by mountains, and there is no way to enter and exit except for a small road, which is very safe to close, even if there is an accident, it will not affect the outside.

Wang Huan sent people to empty the nearby people, widen the roads, build wooden cities at the entrances and exits, cut down trees and flat fields, build houses and houses, build lime ponds, build earthen furnaces, and finally use stones to pick up places that are not easy to get damp in high places, and build a solid powder magazine.

The craftsman of refining must be 100% reliable, Wang Huan thought about it, and finally decided to select some honest and serious people from the local people of Shizhu to fill the position, although they are illiterate, but the refining method is simple and easy to learn, as long as you are careful and keep the process in mind.

Wang Huan has more eyes, and in order to improve the refining efficiency, he divides the entire refining process into several parts, different craftsmen only need to learn a certain part, such as learning fat to refine glycerin only learn how to refine glycerin, distilling acid only learn how to refine acid, nothing else, in this way, that is, simplifying the tediousness of the work of the local people, improving efficiency, but also enhancing the confidentiality of the entire gunpowder refining, if someone defects among the craftsmen, it is only a step to take away the complete refining process, No one else can figure out the whole refining process.

The road widened quickly, and large and small two-wheeled vehicles carrying ore from various mines in Shizhu were transported in one after another, and Ma Xintian's soldiers were stationed in fifty to guard the gunpowder field.

Everything is ready, just wait for the fat pig.

Ma Chongming is transferring grain to buy pigs in other places, and when he returns, the pig farm and the gunpowder farm for 1,000 people will be able to start work at the same time.
