Chapter 264: The "Weapon" of Removing Pig Hair

Liu Awu went back, Yang Reform temporarily got a little free, ready to take time to engage in his own inventions and creations, open the golden finger, however, this emperor has been in office for a long time, people have a lazy surname, and the attitude of doing things and doing things has also changed, when Yang Reform first came, he thought of doing everything by himself, and doing things in no order, not like an emperor at all, but now, obviously he has experience, when the emperor has to be like an emperor, he can't do everything himself, when he can use the people below, try to use the people below, Try to exercise your rights as an emperor, and learn to drive the resources of the entire Ming Dynasty, instead of rolling up your sleeves and going up by yourself, which is inferior.

"Otomo, you say, if I want to sell this oil like lamp oil, what should I do? Oil can be burned, but the smoke is so big that ordinary people may not be able to stand such a big smoke! "Yang Gengai wanted to engage in oil separation towers, separate oil, and then make incendiary bombs and burn wild boar skins, but unfortunately, he really didn't want to do it, and asked Wang Chengen what a good way to do it, in fact, Wang Chengen also heard the emperor talk about what oil, and felt curious, and later inquired about what this oil was. The understanding of this thing is mostly imagination.

Wang Chengen was surprised that the emperor asked him about this, this is a matter that is not related to the wind and horses, thought about it, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, this, the slave and maid are not clear, but the slave and maid heard Your Majesty talk about this oil last time, and the slave and maid were very interested in it, and learned about it, and found that this oil was used in warfare a long time ago, as if it was called fierce fire oil or something, and it seems that there are craftsmen who produce this kind of weapon in the War Bureau, if Your Majesty is interested, the slave and maid can send someone to ask...... "Wang Chengen is interested in this oil, It was still in his imagination at all, and when he saw the emperor asking, he answered like this.

"Oh? Huh, fierce fire oil? I know this, but I want to make this oil into something that can be used as lamp oil to sell, if it can really be like this, it can become an industry, can feed the people in Shaanxi, and it can be regarded as a way out, but unfortunately the smoke of this oil is too big, and it will smoke my eyes when used as lamp oil, so I am thinking about how to make it clean at this time. "Yang Gai knew that oil had been used in the military before, and he had also heard of this fierce fire oil, oil can be burned directly, but the combustion is not very sufficient, it is impossible to use it as lamp oil, people will be smoked to death, and then this oil is not purified, obviously it cannot be made into incendiary bombs.

"Your Majesty, this slave really doesn't know,...... Or, Your Majesty, call the craftsmen who make the fierce fire oil tanks in the War Bureau to ask, they make this kind of weapons, and they also deal with these weapons, maybe they will understand a thing or two. Wang Chengen suggested.

"It's okay, Mate, you go find a few of these craftsmen, and I'll ask them." Yang Gengai thought about it, and he was still going to talk to these craftsmen who made fierce fire oil cabinets, because in the future, they would still use oil to make incendiary bombs and weapons, and now, it can be regarded as preparing in advance.

"The slave obeys the order...... "Wang Chengen immediately went to find someone.

…… After a while, Wang Chengen found a few craftsmen for Yang Reform.

These craftsmen are very excited, they grow so big, they didn't expect that they could go to the palace for a trip, which is really a rare thing.

"The grass people kowtow to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor...... a few people obviously have no training, and they don't understand the rules of kowtow at all. I could hear the little eunuch on the side twisting his neck and laughing, Wang Chengen frowned, and didn't make a sound, this is no way, these people, who knew that they would enter the palace to see the emperor? Therefore, no one trained them in etiquette, and they came in a hurry, so they saluted the emperor according to their imagination.

Yang Gai thought it was interesting, these people were all old, and the youngest, it seems, is also estimated to be over fifty years old. This kind of untrained, authentic salute, the first time I saw it, I felt strange.

"Okay, excuse me, let's all stand up." Yang Gengai didn't notice that there was anything wrong with them during the salute, so he let them get up.

"Grass people, thank you, Your Majesty." Several people kowtowed again, thanking him, and then stood up, and then stood there with his head bowed, waiting for the emperor to speak.

"How many of you know about oil, or fire oil?" Yang Gengai asked directly.

A few people, you look at me, I look at you, and you are also the leader: "Back to the emperor, the little ones are the ones who specialize in making fierce fire oil cabinets in the War Bureau, and they also know a thing or two about fierce fire oil." ”

"Oh, so you know a little bit about the oil, right? I ask you, do you know how to make this oil cleaner, I plan to use it as lamp oil, but the smoke is too heavy, do you have a good solution? If it can be solved, I will be rewarded. "Yang Gengai didn't want to build the separation tower by himself, and began to use his emperor's resources.

A few people are even more you look at me, I look at you. Then he said: "Back to the emperor, the little ones don't know how to make the fierce fire oil cleaner, the fierce fire oil is drawn from the ground, and the oil sludge is mixed together, which is very viscous, like oil into the muddy pond, and then it is difficult to separate the oil from the mud in the mud pond......"

These people are a good analogy, the oil, is the oil mixed into the muddy pond, Yang Reform nodded, the oil was originally like this, seeing that these craftsmen had no choice, Yang Reform was not in a hurry, and decided to talk to them about weapons first, after all, they only know how to do this, and in the future, they will also make oil weapons, they are still experienced, and they are considered to have found the right person.

"Do you know how to make weapons for fire oil?" Yang Reform asked, if these craftsmen have skills, Yang Reform doesn't mind handing over the incendiary bomb to them to do later, which is also an additional worry of his own, he can't make the incendiary bomb by himself, if there is an accident, it will be in vain.

"Back to the emperor, we are all craftsmen who specialize in making fierce fire oil tanks, so we are naturally familiar with this." The leading one, full of confidence to answer the emperor, when it comes to his own business, the confidence index has increased significantly, and people have become natural, not like the twist just now.

"Oh, tell me how you got this fiery oil tank." Yang Gengai is still a little interested in this ancient oil weapon, and this can be regarded as the ancestor of the oil weapon after the Ji Dynasty.

"Back to the emperor, this fierce fire oil tank, made of cooked copper cabinet, below are four feet, on top of the cabinet set up four copper pipes......, when facing the enemy, ignite the front of the fierce fire oil with gunpowder, and then push the drawing cylinder behind the crossbar, so that the fierce fire oil in the fierce fire oil tank will be sprayed out from the front spray canister, burning the enemy...... "This craftsman, began to talk about how this weapon was made.

Yang Gai was dizzy when he heard it, obviously he didn't understand what this fierce fire oil tank was doing.

However, listening to the role of this weapon, it seems to be the same as the flamethrower in the future, Yang Gengai thought of the war scene in the TV camera, the kind of flamethrower that sprays tens of meters at a time, and began to be interested in this weapon. If you purify the oil yourself, get a few flamethrowers and put them on the city tower, once the wild boar skin comes, the flamethrower sprays, I rely on, more than ten meters of flames, then it is called a roast pig. Thinking of this, Yang's interest in reform, that is a surge. After listening to the inexplicable fierce fire oil cabinet just now, Yang Gai felt that he saw the flamethrower roasting the pig.

"Hehe, in this way, this fierce fire oil tank is a very powerful weapon! Companion, take the battle immediately, I want to see for myself how this fierce fire oil tank is made. "Yang's interest in reform just burst out.

Wang Chengen listened, although he was a little surprised, but he still went and immediately agreed: "Obey, Your Majesty." ”

…… A group of people led by the emperor went straight to the military battle.

Fu Mingde, the eunuch of the War Bureau, got the news early and waited for the arrival of the emperor.

"Slave maid Fu Mingde knocks to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." This is not the first time that Fu Mingde has taken over, and he is very happy, the military bureau is valued by the emperor, and his status is naturally high.

"Fu Mingde, how is your military situation good?" Yang Reform and Fu Mingde are acquaintances.

"Back to Your Majesty, everything is fine, thanks to Your Majesty, the slave maid will definitely be able to do more with the new musket this month than last month." Fu Mingde thought that the emperor had come to see the musket, and assured with a nervous face.

"Hehe, this time, I didn't come to see the musket, I heard that there is a weapon called the fierce fire oil tank, I think this weapon is very powerful, so I came here to see how this weapon is made." Yang Gengai saw Fu Mingde's nervous face and said with a smile.

“……!!” Fu Mingde looked at the emperor in surprise, fiercely burning the oil tank? Such outdated things the emperor also wants to see?

"Go back to Your Majesty, but if you want to see the fierce fire oil tank, please come with the slave maid." Fu Mingde is not verbose, what does the emperor want to see, it is not his turn to care, and he is ready to take the emperor directly to the place where the fierce fire oil tank is produced, to be honest, today's fierce fire oil tank, that is not popular, belongs to the decline of weapons, the production of people, there are only a few, the place of production, is in an inconspicuous corner.

After passing through some houses, we finally arrived at the place where the fierce fire oil tank was produced.

"Your Majesty, this is the Fierce Fire Oil Tank." Fu Mingde pointed to a Datong cabinet and said.

A big cabinet made of copper, it may be a little old, this copper has changed color, and in some places, there is actually a patina. There are a few feet under the same cabinet, and there are several copper pipes inserted in the cabinet, and above the copper pipe, there is a horizontal nozzle, and there seems to be a device behind the nozzle, which is the fierce fire oil tank?

"Fu Mingde, let someone try how this fierce oil tank works, I want to see how he kills and injures the enemy." Yang Reform was actually thinking that if this thing works well, replace the crude oil with purified kerosene or gasoline, perhaps, this weapon will have an unexpected effect when used to defend the city. Yang Gengai was looking forward to the scene of the flamethrower grilling wild boar skin.

Fu Mingde's head is big, this kind of weapon, now there are not many people who know how to do it, but Your Majesty still has to see how this weapon kills and injures the enemy, Fu Mingde trembled in his heart, and said: "Your Majesty, this kind of weapon has now declined, and there are not many people who can use it, and it has not been produced for many years, and this one is still left as a sample." ”

"Oh, is it? Will you use it much? That is to say, there are still people who will use it? Hurry up, see who knows what to do, and give me a live demonstration. "Yang Reform is the emperor, but he doesn't have the heart to care about so much, the emperor has to use the emperor's resources back.

Fu Mingde was very in awe of the emperor, hearing the emperor say this, he trembled to arrange, and after a while, he found someone, Yang Reform looked at it, it turned out to be a few old men he had just seen.

"Back to Your Majesty, the person who can use this weapon has been found." Fu Mingde wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he didn't know if he was nervous and scared, or if the weather was too hot and he exercised too much.

"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up! Yang urged the reform.

"Your Majesty, this weapon is going to use fierce fire oil, it is quite powerful, for the sake of Your Majesty's safety, please ask Your Majesty to find a safe place to watch, so as not to hurt Your Majesty's dragon body." Fu Mingde didn't have much confidence in this kind of weapon, and if he hurt the emperor, he couldn't afford to bear it.

"Well, this makes sense, so hurry up and go to the schoolyard." Yang Reform did not stop, and went straight to the school, and the group also went straight to the school.

…… In the school grounds, Yang Gai, as the emperor, sat in the stands, a chair specially prepared for the emperor.

The group of people below is responsible for displaying this weapon.

A few old men first poured some things into the fierce fire oil tank, and then used a red-hot iron rod to click on the front of the nozzle, "bang", the nozzle spewed out some smoke, and then the tongue of fire, and then, someone behind the back violently pulled the lever behind the nozzle, and after a few pulls, the flame in front of the nozzle spewed out a long tongue of fire, and sometimes some oil that was not burned out was sprayed, fell to the ground, and continued to burn.

After half a bang, the oil in the cabinet may have run out, and the flame gradually went out. After the demonstration, the artisan oil in charge of the demonstration kowtowed to the emperor.

Fu Mingde whispered: "Your Majesty, how this fierce fire oil tank kills the enemy has been demonstrated. ”

Yang Reform is still surprised, what kind of fierce fire oil tank, Yang Reform is now completely understood, this thing, how to look at it, how it looks like a thing, that is, when the pig's trotters are haired, the kind of gasoline blowtorch used to remove the pig's trotters.

If you replace this oil with purified gasoline and make this big cabinet smaller, it will be no different from the blowtorch that burns pig's trotters later! Even the push-pull rod in the back is the same as that kind of thing, which compresses air into it, and Yang Reform was fiercely surprised by this thing. A thousand years ago, the ancients used this kind of thing to burn the enemy, and in the 21st century, people used this kind of thing to dehaired pig's trotters...... "Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" Wang Chengen reminded in a whisper. The emperor was already in a daze.

Originally, Yang Reform just wanted to do how to refine oil and make incendiary bombs, and then, he wanted to make flamethrowers, but now, seeing a weapon ...... how to remove hair from pigs' trotters, Yang Reform couldn't laugh or cry.

"Well......, Fu Mingde, this weapon is too cumbersome, and the power is as simple as the gun...... "Yang Reform's original intention was to make incendiary bombs, or flamethrowers, and build oil refining towers, as for this kind of weapon, Yang Reform has no interest.

"Your Majesty is right, Your Majesty is right." Fu Mingde nodded busily and said yes, this kind of weapon, now, is indeed in decline, far less powerful than guns.

"In this way, you call those craftsmen, who are responsible for making this fierce fire tank as powerful as possible, if you can stand at the head of the city and breathe fire downward, it can spew out a few feet away and burn the enemy, it can be regarded as a little useful." Yang Gengai thought, perhaps, he can make a few blowtorches, used to burn pig hair ......, he really doesn't need this kind of weapon now, only the flamethrower, he is still a little interested, but the flamethrower, without gasoline, is not a big deal, now, it is just to ask these people to warm up in advance and prepare to develop.

"The slave and maid obey the order, but it is not easy to transport this fierce fire oil, and it is very expensive to transport it from Shaanxi......"

"Oh, that's it! It doesn't matter, I'll send someone to transport it, oh, by the way, Fu Mingde, do you know how to make this oil, the fierce fire oil, clean? I think there is so much oil in the ground, if it can be turned into lamp oil for the people of the world to hold the lamp, it will be a good deal......" Yang said.

Fu Mingde was a little surprised, the emperor is really good at whimsy, that's right, this underground fire oil, how many years, I haven't seen it burned, there is indeed a lot of underground storage, but the smoke of the fire oil is not ordinarily big, to say that the fire oil is cleaned, used to make lamp oil, it is indeed a good deal, but, can it be cleaned? That muddy stuff mixed with oil? How to do it? You can't wash it off with something so sticky.

"Back to Your Majesty, the slave doesn't know how to clean the fierce fire oil...... "Fu Mingde can't help it, if he can clean it, he will clean it up a long time ago."

Yang Gengai knows how to separate the substances in the oil, but unfortunately, he doesn't plan to do it himself, so he finds a talented person to complete the oil separation tower for himself.

"Big companion, in this way, I will offer a reward, if anyone can clean up this oil, oil is oil, scum is scum, I have a heavy reward...... "Yang reformed the use of his emperor's power, this kind of thing, there is no need to go into battle by himself.

"The slave and maid understand, and this will pass down His Majesty's will." It was not the first time that Wang Chengen had offered a reward for the emperor, so he immediately agreed.

"By the way, the craftsmen who are in charge of making the fierce fire oil tank are rewarded with ten taels of silver, so that they can study how to ......increase the power of this fierce fire oil tank with peace of mind," Yang reformed the oil ordered.

"The slave obeys." Wang Chengen agreed.

"Companion, let's go back to the palace." Yang Reform looked at it a strange time today, and said that the ancestor of the pig's trotter hair was burned, and the oil tank was fiercely fired. It may also be the ancestor of the later flamethrower.

The group returned to the palace again. The man who knelt on the ground sent off the emperor.
