Ying Jingyu fell into deep thought after hearing this, such a large-scale new heavy weapon was manufactured in such a short time, and it had never been produced. It is also necessary to increase the flow of molds and test new weapons

According to the manpower and ability of the Great Qin Wufang Division now, it is indeed a little difficult for the craftsmen of the Wufang Division

Jing Yu said: "I will explain this matter to my father after I return to the palace next time, and order all the carpenters, ironcasters and other craftsmen in the pass to enter Xianyang, and then ask three thousand young children to study and assist in the Wufang Division, can we solve the problem of time?" ”

Lu Wu said excitedly: "You don't need so many people, you only need to use half of the craftsmen in Guanzhong to enter Xianyang, and recruit 2,000 people to help the Wufang Division, and you can hand in the number of weapons at the time that Gongzi said." ”

"Good! In that case, I would like to ask you to develop the artifact I have drawn as soon as possible. If there is any need, report it directly to me or to the king, and do not delay the time..."

After hearing this, the people of Luwu knelt down again and said, "Yes, Childe! No disgrace! ”

"Yes, Ruu. Have you ever heard of an explosive object? ”

Ruwu got up and wondered, "Something explosive? Is Childe talking about the energy generated by a meteorite hitting the ground? ”

Ying Jingyu smiled bitterly and shook his head after hearing this: "Almost." There is something that can explode in an instant after being caught in fire, and it can cause great damage to people nearby..."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Wu patted his head and said, "I remember, Wechen did hear that there is such a similar thing. ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"Childe, in the later years of the First Emperor, he raised many alchemy alchemists in the palace for Changsheng, and for a while a trend was formed in Xianyang. Under the prevailing wind of alchemy, many alchemists did not know what to add in the process of alchemy in the Dan furnace, and the situation of the fryer was produced. ”

"According to common sense, this would not be the case with what is thrown into the furnace. Because they often encountered the explosion furnace, many monks were seriously injured or killed in the process, so after the first emperor, the wind of Xianyang alchemy gradually dispersed. ”

Ying Jingyu nodded thoughtfully, it seems that the legends recorded in history are true

Jing Yu said: "The explosive thing I just mentioned is similar to the alchemy blaster, this thing is called 'gunpowder', and it is not difficult to make. I want the Wufang Division to add this 'gunpowder' item again to enhance the combat strength of our Qin army." ”

Everyone was horrified when they heard this! Such an uncontrollable thing, as long as it is close, it is either dead or disabled, how can it be developed?

Even Zheng Chan and Li Nian, who had never spoken behind Ying Jingyu, persuaded them: "Son, this thing is too dangerous!" If my Qin soldiers can be equipped with the two-fold weapon that Gongzi just drawn, there is a great hope of retreating to the Six Kingdoms under the great increase in combat power, and there is no need to take this risk again! ”

The people of Lu Wu also persuaded: "Childe, what the two generals said is very true, the monks used to use a variety of materials to throw the stove before the fryer could appear. Even Fang Shi himself can't remember the various materials and proportions needed, if Gongzi intends to develop the 'gunpowder' thing, there is no need to invest in this matter now, and when Daqin stabilizes in the future, I will order someone to study this 'gunpowder' thing alone, and it will not affect the waste of personnel and resources due to the production of a large number of new heavy weapons. ”

"Hahaha, what if I say I have the perfect recipe and ratio for making 'gunpowder' in my mind?"

"Huh? ... Childe, you're really..."

Of course, what did Ying Jingyu do more than 2,000 years later, as a top soldier king, the basic common sense of making gunpowder is for pediatrics, not to mention gunpowder, if the technology is advanced and the accessories are complete, even the pistol can be polished with bare hands

Ying Jingyu looked at the confused crowd and smiled mysteriously: "How do I know the formula of 'gunpowder', you don't have to ask." Lu Wu, give you a mission for the Wufang Division. ”

"Childe, please speak!"

"Ordered someone to go to Xianyang City or Guanzhong, collect the alchemy priests from the past and come to the Wufang Division, and said that it was the Great King's Order. About 50-100 square meters is enough, the more the merrier. ”

"After the alchemist is summoned, I will find the raw materials for making gunpowder and teach them how to do it. Later, these alchemists formed the 'Gunpowder Division' of the Bingwu Division, which was responsible for the production and improvement of gunpowder applications. ”

Lu Wu and the others hesitated for a moment, but they really couldn't find a reason to stop Gongziyu from doing this, because everyone was numb by Ying Jingyu's genius and whimsy at the moment

Even if Ying Jingyu now says that he can make a thing that can make people fly into the sky, he doesn't dare to blindly laugh or believe it...

Lu Wu said: "Yes, Childe. Since Childe has a big plan, then Wu will definitely arrange this matter. Try to find Qi Fangshi to come to our company within three days. ”

Ying Jingyu said with some satisfaction: "Well, today's matter is a state secret, before the real retreat to the six countries of the Kwantung region, the three weapons I have listed are all top secrets, except for the necessary craftsmen, no one is allowed to know the news of the new weapon manufacturing." ”

"If it leaks out of the customs, let the six countries of Kanto know in advance. Find out the three tribes of Houyi! ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly said, "Yes, Childe!" Miscellaneous people will not be able to peek into its mysteries! ”

After Ying Jingyu and the others explained some things to Lu Wu and other craftsmen, they hurried back to the palace.

When I returned to the palace, it was almost evening

But now that the Qin State is racing against time, if it can make decisions on major state affairs earlier, it must not delay for a moment

After Jing Yu returned to the palace, he just caught up with Qin III and others having dinner, and it was better to return early

It just so happened that the family gathered a table, and after eating, Ying Jingyu explained to King Qin the details of the negotiation with Lu Wu, the director of the Wufang, and others today

This includes horse shoeing and giant throwers, and 'gunpowder' cases. King Qin was stunned when he heard it

At first, King Qin couldn't believe it, because two of them were unheard of, because they were the gunpowder things, which exploded when they caught fire, and the materials required were very random, and he was afraid that only in the alchemist would there be such an uncontrollable beast

How does this Ying Jingyu know the detailed formula? This is something that I never dreamed of, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fantasy

However, after Ying Jingyu explained the feasibility and combat power of horse kicks and gunpowder many times, King Qin finally believed something

Because Ying Jingyu has changed a lot since he was injured, and he personally planned and led the change of seizing power, which was unthinkable in the past

was actually done by Ying Jingyu, so what else is impossible?

Since gunpowder has such power, once it is successfully developed and used in large quantities in the Qin army, it will not only greatly increase the possibility of blocking Chu Xiang from entering the customs

Moreover, once the Qin state eases up and reorganizes the Qin army to restore its previous size, it will be easier to unify the world again than during the period of the First Emperor

Although the gunpowder thing is too dangerous, but looking at Ying Jingyu's confident appearance, it is worth a try, and from the perspective of long-term interests, the benefits are definitely greater than the benefits

So after the two talked until night, more than an hour had passed, King Qin finally made a decision, promised and fully supported all of Ying Jingyu's military arrangements!

After the military construction matter was confirmed, Ying Jingyu inquired about the recent situation of the conscription in Guanzhong, the hearts of the people of Daqin, and the recruitment of soldiers

However, the answer I got was not very satisfactory, it may be that the king of Qin had just ascended the throne, and many decrees were not issued to the counties so quickly, and even if they were implemented, it would take a while to see the results

However, these problems have been drafted by Qin III with several important ministers such as Feng Tuo, the court commander, and if the policy is established, a royal order will be issued to summon Guanzhong

Then cancel the unreasonable conscription one by one, order the cessation of civil construction such as the Afang Palace and the mausoleum, subdue the people, and then recruit new soldiers, all of which must be implemented slowly...

Ying Jingyu had begun to have an eyebrow when he heard these important matters related to future wars, and he was relieved

Qin III said suddenly: "After taking charge of the army, Yu'er once ordered the closure of Xianyang City, except for the Qin soldiers, they had to enter and not leave. According to reports, there have been many complaints in Xianyang City for a few days. ”

"My father is also thinking about it, Yu'er's move is to prevent Liu Xiangjun in Kanto from learning about the drastic changes in my Guanzhong. Just block the two passes, not let people out of the customs, if you block Xianyang again, logistics and commerce are not passable, for a long time, it is not good for Xianyang. ”

Ying Jingyu forgot about this matter after hearing this, at that time, it was indeed to prevent the spies of the Six Kingdoms in Xianyang City from informing Liu Xiang of the situation of the Qin State as soon as possible, which would be a little troublesome

If the six Kwantung countries came prepared, they would face greater military pressure, so Zheng Chan was ordered to lead 2,000 Qin soldiers to guard the Xianyang City Gate

But at this time, the two levels have been closed, and it is not so necessary to close Xianyang City again

Jing Yu said: "Father, the son has forgotten about this. The father may order the ban to be lifted. Xianyang has a large population, and it can also be ordered to summon new troops from the city into the camp. ”
