Five or six aged craftsmen circled around a prefabricated slab, shaking their heads and nodding their heads, not exchanging heads, and then sighing at each other.

Looking at their bitter and hateful appearance, Hauge suddenly became angry.

"This king didn't come to see you go around in circles, tell me quickly, how did you get this?"

Plopped, several craftsmen all knelt at Hauge's feet.

"Lord Qiyu, the minions took a closer look, this thing is about a mixture of pebbles, mud and sand, and then made out of molds. There are also pre-tied bamboo shelves in the middle, which make the whole board stronger and shaped like a stone......"

"Don't talk about this nonsense, pebbles, stones, bamboo shelves, anyone can see this. What the king wants to ask is what are those blue-black things? ”

"This, this minion doesn't know!"

"Rice bucket!" Haoge was so angry that he kicked the old craftsman out dozens of meters, pointed at his nose, and scolded loudly: "Aren't you the best craftsmen, and you still follow Sun Chengzong to repair the city wall outside the pass, what building materials does Minggou have, you don't know?" It just doesn't make sense! ”

"I see that you are deliberately concealing it, and you want to watch the jokes of the Qing warriors, and this king will cut you now!"

"Lord Wang, how dare the minions deceive you, the minions really don't know, new things have emerged in an endless stream over the years, not to mention that Minggou is still hooking up with Xiyi, what new things come from overseas, and the minions don't know!"

When Wu Sangui heard the craftsman's cry, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Lord Wang." There are indeed a lot of Yi people under Minggou, and I think it may be a new technology from the West. ”

"So what to do?"

"Just find a few Yiren and ask!"

When Hauge heard this, he also thought it was reasonable. In a short time, a few golden-eyed Portuguese people rushed over, the leader was called Shato, and he led the others to kneel on the ground on one leg, and this guy said in stiff Chinese: "See the prince!" ”

"Well, go see what that is."

Shatto hurriedly followed his finger to the prefabricated slab, and he and a few friends walked around it a few times. Biting his ear, Shatto stepped in front of Haug.

"Lord Qiqi, this kind of thing already exists in the West. It's a great building material, it can quickly bond bricks, I didn't expect it to be available in the land of the Celestial Empire, and it's pretty good. Stronger than the Western ones. ”

When Wu Sangui heard it, it was really a Western thing. Immediately, he asked, "Shato, do you know how to fire?" ”

Shato shrugged his shoulders and said with a wry smile: "Lord Wang, I am a soldier and an artilleryman, and my duty is to fight, and I don't know these things. However, there is one thing I can remind the prince, if the rebels on the opposite side have this magical building material. Their castles will be stronger, and their fortifications will be faster! ”

"How fast?" Hauge couldn't help but ask.

Shatto thought for a long time. He said: "It seems that in one day, it can be solidified and become as hard as a stone!" ”

"What!" Wu Sangui and Haoge's faces finally changed wildly, and their fists clenched and jumped.

These two people often lead troops, what do you not understand, it is very difficult to attack the fortified city, if there is such a thing, doesn't it mean that even if it is a hole, as long as it cannot be taken on the same day, in the blink of an eye, people can repair it as before!

As soon as they thought of this, the green tendons in the heads of the two people jumped up!

Haoge let out a long breath after a while: "King Pingxi, it seems that we must make a desperate bet and keep attacking Gu Zhenhua, as long as this is the case, we can defeat them!" ”

"What the prince said is right, and after Gu Zhenhua has this kind of building material, it means that he can quickly build a large number of fortresses. An ** is a cancer, the longer it drags on, the bigger this tumor will be! ”

Wu Sangui gritted his teeth and said: "Lord Wang, in my opinion, I should make up my mind to completely eradicate Gu Zhenhua, and I must not let An ** continue to save zài, otherwise this ......"

Wu Sangui didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Haoge was also clear! When he was in Shandong, he sent men and horses to snatch An**'s grain, but he hit a nail. Looking back now, if I could have made a desperate bet and eradicated An ** as soon as possible, there would not have been such a big trouble!

Of course, there is no regret medicine in the world, and the growth of An ** has made Hauge feel heartfelt fear, and he has to make up his mind to eradicate An ** at any cost!

Haoge, Wu Sangui, Shang Kexi and others all gathered together, Haoge looked at the map carefully, and then said: "If you want to eradicate An ** quickly, you should attack in an all-round way, not give them any room for maneuver, and cultivation time, never stop, even if you use blood and life, you must consume them!" ”

"King Zhishun, you lead the people of your headquarters, together with Hu Xinshui, to storm the city! Nikan, you take 5,000 strong troops of the Eight Banners, plus 8,000 Han Army Banners, and attack Xinxiang with all your might. The king of this and the king of Pingxi, together with the camp of Wuzhenha, attacked Ji County with all their might. The three work together, be sure to break An's defense line as quickly as possible and eliminate Gu Zhenhua's forces! ”

After Haoge finished speaking, his sharp eyes swept over everyone, and he said heavily: "Loyal ministers of the Qing Dynasty, An ** is a fierce tiger, we must completely eradicate this tiger before it grows up, otherwise a little tiger will begin to eat people, don't forget Kong Youde!" ”

As soon as they heard Kong Youde's three words, everyone present was awe-inspiring, and their expressions were particularly solemn: "Please rest assured, I will do our best to eradicate An ** and share worries for the court!" ”

Gu Zhenhua didn't know that a small prefabricated board brought such a big shock to the Qing army, and he was still in the city at this time, directing the people to sweep the soil of the toilet.

That's right!

The dignified commander of the three armies, the grandfather of the country, who is admired by everyone, actually took people to drill toilets and stables, which is really a little scratching people's heads. But after Gu Zhenhua asked people to transport out baskets of soil with white mangs, some people's eyes straightened.

He Zhonghou couldn't help but go to the front and take a closer look. I couldn't help but twist it up a little and put it in my mouth. Seeing that everyone's faces were pale, they couldn't bear to look at them directly.

"Phew!" He Zhonghou tasted it. I couldn't help but spit it out.

6 Shun on the side couldn't help but laugh and said: "Sixth grandfather, how disgusting, why do you eat everything!" ”

"Bastard, do you want to try it?"

"I don't want to." 6 Shun shook his head like a rattle.

He Zhonghou smiled and said: "Silly boy, do you know it, these soil are very spicy in your mouth. It's really a good nitrate, that is, a necessity for making gunpowder! ”

"Huh? It's true? 6 Shun couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"I don't believe you'll taste it."

6 Shun carefully buckled a piece and put it in his mouth. "Phew, it's so spicy!"

"Hahaha, that's right, this is nitrate!" Gu Zhenhua smiled: "In the middle of the war." The consumption of gunpowder is staggering. In the future, the soil will be taken from these toilet stables, and it is guaranteed to be endless! ”

6 Shun also came to his strength in an instant, wielding his hoe and digging up the large piece of dirt. As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers, and thousands of people, toilets, stables, and old houses in the city have been swept over. Many of them dug up hundreds of catties of nitrate. There are dozens of catties less.

But look at these dirty, smelly things. It's still hard to imagine that it could be associated with gunpowder.

Next, Gu Zhenhua asked people to take out some and bring some plant ash, and according to the ratio of about three to one, the nitrate and wood ash were crushed and sifted respectively, and mixed into a large cauldron. I began to rinse with hot water, and after repeated consideration and refinement, the color of the water gradually became clearer.

Then put it in the pot and continue to boil, and finally crystallize, it forms a high-purity saltpeter, these nitrate clays as long as they are added to sulfur, charcoal and other substances are crushed and stirred in proportion, and after being ground in the stone mill, black powder powder is born.

Looking at this magical change, the big guys were all amazed. He Zhonghou has been helping Gu Zhenhua manage the accounts during this time, and after the war, he assisted Xia Shouli in handling military supplies, and the old man was also an idle person.

As for 6 Shun, who has joined the youth battalion of An **, he is already half a soldier.

He Zhonghou said with a smile: "Zhenhua, you should fight and fight, and the work of boiling nitrate will be handed over to us, to ensure that the supply is sufficient, if you can't do it, you are the only one who asks!" ”

Just when everyone was excited, suddenly a huge cannon sound sounded outside the city, and although everyone was in the city, they felt that the ground under their feet was trembling.

Gu Zhenhua frowned, and hurriedly said, "Sixth Uncle, this work will be handed over to you, I'll go to the city to take a look right away!" ”

Gu Zhenhua hurried towards the city wall, and along the way, the sound of cannons was like muffled thunder, one after another, resounding in the sky.

Such a huge cannon sound is obviously not an ** artillery, it must be the Manchu Qing Dynasty's Shenwei General Cannon or something!

The truly brutal battle is coming!

Gu Zhenhua thought of this, and couldn't help but say to Kang Dali: "Are you afraid or not?" ”

"Don't be afraid, follow you, we're not afraid of anything!"

"Hahaha, well, the war is fought by everyone, as long as everyone is united, no matter how many artillery pieces the Tartars have, they are not our opponents!"

Gu Zhenhua strode to the city, and at this time Li Xu was using a monocular to look into the distance.

"Grandpa Guo, the artillery of the Qing army has entered the battle."

Gu Zhenhua also hurriedly looked out of the city, only to see that six or seven miles away, above the position of the Qing army, there was constantly heavy gunpowder smoke rising, and one cannon after another.

One by one, more than ten pounds of iron pills were pushed and cut through the sky and fell to An**'s position!

In an uproar, a cannonball hit the breastwork, which instantly shattered the prefabricated slabs, and the soldiers hiding behind were injured one after another, and some people were directly hit by the flying cement blocks, and their heads were flattened, so miserable!

"Grandpa Guo, what do you think?" Li Xu also asked anxiously.

Gu Zhenhua said expressionlessly: "If you fight a war, you have to sacrifice, tell Tang Zhanxiong, you must stick to the position outside the city, no matter how many people die, you must hold on!" ”

Tang Zhanxiong was wielding a machete at this time, and cut down two aha in succession, covered in blood. Suddenly, a cannonball hit, so frightened that Tang Zhanxiong rolled on the ground and hid in a ditch, and the two soldiers behind him were hit by the cannonball, half of their bodies were destroyed, and blood gushed out.
