95, test the power of gunpowder
After eating, he slept lazily in the sun again, opened his eyes and looked at the fireball he had just made, which had already formed, and quickly got up and took it and checked it in his hand.
It feels okay, but I don't know if I can use it, and Chen Chen still doesn't have much confidence in this handmade gunpowder.
This is the first time he has used flint, and he has held the flint in his left and right hands and started to hit, listening to the sound of knocking and knocking, but the two stones have no movement, and there is no spark at all.
"Uh, is this really a flint? Why didn't there be any reaction at all. "I haven't been fighting for a long time without any flames, is the flint useless or is my own mastery useless? The more Chen Chen fights, the more he loses confidence, and he misses modern matches more and more, as long as he wipes it, it will catch fire, how light and convenient!
"Come on, come on, set fire to this king." The more the flames hit, the more he couldn't get up, Chen Chen was about to doubt his life, but fortunately, he crossed over to be the prince, someone made food, someone made clothes, and everything was done, if this was a farmer, I am afraid that he would have eaten the last meal and not the next meal.
A subordinate hurriedly came over when he heard Chen Chen's call: "Lord Wang, the flint is not used like this, it should be used like this." ”
The subordinate quickly found a soft and easy-to-light firewood, and then took the flint and knocked it violently continuously, knocking it a few times, and the fire was quickly ignited, and then hurriedly added hard wood to the fire, and the fire burned brightly.
"Uh, it's so troublesome, are you all making fires like this?" Looking at this step, Chen Chen only felt dizzy.
The subordinate looked at Chen Chen with a puzzled look: "The prince hasn't made a fire?" Don't know any of that? ”
Chen Chen hurriedly coughed: "Cough, shut up, where is the prince making a fire, okay, you go down, no one is allowed to come." ”
"Yes." The subordinate promised to leave quickly.
Looking around left and right, to make sure that there was no one, Chen Chen took a matchstick and ignited the cannon twist, and the flames quickly burned towards the powder ball along the twist.
Chen Chen hurriedly picked up his feet and ran to the far corner.
Hiding behind and listening to the sound, but there was no movement, and after a while there was still no movement, Chen Chen couldn't help but walk forward in shock but found that the twist had been burned, leaving only the gunpowder ball on the ground.
I had the courage to pick up the gunpowder ball and take a look, it turned out that it seemed that the gunpowder ball was too porcelain to explode.
"It's chilling that I made a fork and wasted so much strength that I couldn't explode." Throwing a few gunpowder balls into the fire, Chen Chen ran to the chair.
Before he could go far, he only felt a burst of heat behind his buttocks, and then he heard a deafening explosion, and his heart was shocked, and then a wave of heat rushed to his back, and his body involuntarily lay on the ground, and the firewood sticks flew all over the sky, and several firewood sticks fell directly on his body, and Chen Chen was so frightened that he lost consciousness.
When he woke up, it was already dark night, he only felt that his eyes were hot and painful, his whole body was uncomfortable, he was wet under his buttocks, he didn't know whether it was sweat or blood, his arms were full of silver needles, and his forehead was covered with wet towels.
"What's the matter with this king?" Chen Chen said in a hoarse voice, only feeling that his throat was hot and painful, and his voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant.
Commander Wei and Chen Cheng hurriedly came up: "Lord Wang, you're okay, you're scared us to death, I heard the description of the deafening explosion in the courtyard, you lay on the ground in disgrace and lost consciousness, your whole body was covered with blood and ashes, fortunately, the doctor said that it was only some extracutaneous burns, not much damage." ”
"Ah, I'm scared to death, I didn't expect it to be so powerful, if the power is greater, I'm afraid this king will say goodbye to you." Thinking of the scene just now, Chen Chen also had palpitations.
Obviously, there is no action to ignite the twist, but how to throw it in the fire is so powerful, it seems to be even more powerful.
Could it be that the compression is overdone, and the blast point cannot be reached? Next time, if you don't compress it too much, then you must be able to explode, right? Chen Chen was lying on the kang, his eyes dripping.
"The prince is fine, the old man will prescribe a few doses of medicine to the prince, and the prince will take it." The doctor saw that Chen Chen was fine, so he left Fang Zi and left.
Chen Chen drank several sips of water and washed away the bitter taste and said, "Okay, this king is preparing explosives today, but I didn't expect to almost get this king back to the west." By the way, the steel in the factory is estimated to be produced tomorrow, Chen Cheng, you immediately take the design drawings given to you by this king and personally supervise the work, and quickly design the cannon. ”
"This thing is a cannon?" Chen Cheng took out the silk cloth and handed it to Chen Chen.
Chen Chen smiled proudly: "Well, this is the launch pad for firing gunpowder, you look at the cylinder in the front, it is stuffed with gunpowder, and the back is ignited, and then it can be launched to defeat the enemy, and even breaking the city is not a problem." ”
"Can this thing break the formation!"
"Breaking the formation? It's too trivial, this is an artifact for breaking the city, for example, this cavalry team is coming, and this cannon is fired out to ensure that others turn over on their backs, and no one is left. Chen Chen was full of praise for this, this is a hot weapon, officially opening the curtain of hot weapons against cold weapons.
"By the way, you send people to explore the news of Chen Guo and Nanzhao, as long as you dare to come in this time, let them go and never return, it's time for Chen Guo to leave this place, and he should be eliminated by history." Chen Chen gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, daring to hit his idea, then don't think about it.
The two nodded in agreement, Chen Chen instructed again, the two left quickly, Chen Chen also lay down and slept beautifully, thinking about the army and horses jumping in the artillery fire, the picture is not too beautiful.
The next morning, Chen Chen carefully processed the gunpowder, improved the method, did not mix it with water, and directly used the lard that was easy to ignite to make it, making several large gunpowder balls in one go, and Chen Chen was also quite satisfied with the quality of the production.
The gunpowder ball made of lard is greasy and easy to ignite, and the ball is loose, and the blasting point is more easy to burst, and it is also easy to burn.
Ordered someone to carefully pack them into boxes, and then pulled the boxes and led the heavy guards straight to the factory.
"Be careful, be careful, stop, you guys immediately take off your clothes and put them in the box to protect the explosives, and then the king will give you a new dress." Because the cement road was not built to the factory, the vehicles kept bumping along the way, and Chen Chen kept ordering the soldiers to be careful, but not to break the explosives.
Although the soldiers were reluctant, they had to do so under the pressure of the prince, so Chen Chen relieved himself and continued to drive with the soldiers on horseback.
"It seems that the road construction is still too slow, we have to hurry up." Sighing, seeing the muddy dirt road, Chen Chen was a hundred dissatisfied in his heart.
Coming to the factory, the workers have also assembled the cannon overnight, the barrel is high up, and the ignition device below has also been made.
