Huang Youde was also taken aback by this battle.

"Don't dare, don't dare, the villain is just doing his best." He hurriedly said.

In order to earn those three taels of silver, Huang Youde also tried his best.

Fortunately, when the firearms workshop was first placed, they happened to be placed in a village with a river passing through.

Huang Youde, who had seen the Franco-Robot Man and made firearms in England, had an idea and ordered people to build a bamboo dam in the river and use the water flow to replace the artificial drill pipe.

In this way, not only the manpower is greatly reduced, but also the drill pipe can be carried out day and night, and the time required is also greatly reduced.

As for these drill bits, they are also made of high-quality iron stone in Luzon.

In just over ten days, the Firearms Division has produced hundreds of guns.

After the barrel is completed, it means that the main part of the bird gun has been completed, and the next step is to further refine the other accessories of the firecracker.

For example, fine iron is used to make the body parts to enhance the strength and durability of the self-generated fire gun, and hardwood is used to make wooden butts and body guards.

The rest of the manpower was naturally arranged for him to be in the rest of the process of making the firecracker.

"My lord, apart from some of the crumbly or erroneously made firearms, the Firearms Division has produced 20 excellent self-generated firearms so far." Huang Youde ordered someone to fetch the firecracker.

"Good."

Looking at these firecrackers, Liu Yu was very satisfied.

This was much more than he expected.

"The silver reward will be released at the end of the month, and if the fire gun is of high quality, add one or two to each silver reward."

"Master Xie." Huang Youde was a little excited,

I have been in Luzon for some time, and neither Lord Xiao nor Lord Huang have taken these craftsmen seriously, and they have never inspected here in the future.

On the contrary, it was Lord Liu and King Lu in front of him who gave him enough respect for these craftsmen.

Even the food and manpower required by the Firearms Division were Liu Yu's words to Liu Quan, and Lord Liu took special care of them.

This made Huang Youde also play his own little Jiujiu.

"Oh, yes." Liu Yu suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here.

"How do you make gunpowder?" Liu Yu asked.

"Back to the words of the adults,"

"To make gunpowder, each material uses five catties of nitrate, one catty of yellow, and one catty of eggplant ash. The above nitrate, yellow, ash a total of seven catties, divided into three troughs, fixed grinding 5,500 degrees, out of the trough. Three catties of each medicine, one catty of good soju, into mud, still in the trough, and then grind hundreds of times, out of the trough. Mix into grains, such as yellow rice, or mung beans, must be put into the palm of people's hands and not feel hot, so that "Huang Youde 1510 memorized the gunpowder production process.

Liu Yu nodded,

Hurriedly asked the soldiers to bring over the two medicine jars.

"Look,"

He picked up the black powder and let Huang Youde take a closer look.

"Why are there so many differences between the two black powders?" Liu Yu asked.

"The gunpowder was made into granules, and it was originally transmitted by the Francophone people in Macau, but at that time, it was in troubled times, and the firearms department was too busy to take care of itself, and its quality was also uneven."

"And when the country surnamed Ye entered Taiwan, I waited to see the Dutch people, the English people's gunpowder is granular, and it is more determined to this law, but the situation was unstable at that time, the island was in civil strife, no one cared about the firearms workshop, and the craftsmen and pharmaceutical accidents were also endless, and the quality of their gunpowder naturally could not be guaranteed." Huang Youde said helplessly.

"That's it." Liu Yu took another powder canister.

Huang Youde glanced at it and said with a smile:

"The self-generated firearm is our beloved thing, and the gunpowder is also developed with great concentration, and the black powder of the natural and ordinary configuration is excellent." Huang Youde did not hide it and said.

"I see." Liu Yu suddenly realized.

"From this day forward, then, I don't want to see shoddy gunpowder again." Liu Yu scolded.

"Understood, sir." Huang Youde was not ambiguous, and hurriedly took Liu Yu to the gunpowder shop.

Because the production of black powder was too dangerous, Huang Youde never dared to put it in the village, but chose a flat place in the lower reaches of the river.

What surprised Liu Yu even more was that compared with the traditional wooden grinding used by craftsmen when Liu Yu came to the firearms division before, today's gunpowder workshop has also used a mechanical pharmaceutical method powered by a water wheel.

The power transmission rammer that flows water through the waterwheel grinds the gunpowder underneath the rammer.

This was an eye-opener for Liu Yu.

The evaluation of Huang Youde is a few points higher.

According to Huang Youde's decision, the optimal ratio of gunpowder fired by self-generated firearms is 7 percent 5, 1 percent, and 1 percent 5 percent of nitrate, sulfur, and charcoal.

As for artillery, Huang Youde and others also discussed on their own, after all, they are not experts, and some affairs are entrusted to these craftsmen.

After taking away the twenty self-made firearms, Liu Yu did not stop and rushed directly to Mingcheng.

He wanted to form a battalion of gods that belonged to him.

He told his uncle Liu Quan, and after thinking about it, Liu Quan transferred all the firecrackers of the two classes under his command to Liu Yu.

At the same time, all the sixty newly recruited Han soldiers were allocated to Liu Yu.

The purpose of going to Luzon was the population and the soldiers.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has gradually taken control of the western coastal areas of Luzon, the number of Han people under their control has reached more than 2,000.

And the recruited Han soldiers also had 500 people.

With Xiao Wu's departure, Huang Liangji became the commander of Mingcheng.

Under his leadership, the city defenses of Ming City were also repeatedly reinforced, and some small artillery pieces dismantled from the fleet were also installed on the city walls.

It seems that everything is moving for the better.

Looking at the 90 people allocated to him, Liu Yu was not ambiguous, and took them directly to the beach.

The military system adopted by the Ming Dynasty is the same as the Ming Zheng town association class system,

Liu Yu plans to gradually form the Shenji Battalion, and adopts the battalion association class system.

He divided the twenty veterans who had participated in the bloody battle into two associations, and each association transferred another 30 people.

Use the self-generated firebolt separately from arquebuses such as the Lumi gun.

The First Association used self-generated firearms, while the Second Association used arquebuses such as Lumi guns.

Although the number of people is somewhat small, its firepower is fierce.

It has more than 50 pieces of various types of firearms.

"Hold the arquebus, stand on the front foot, kneel on the back foot, and raise the gun," one soldier said to a group of gun-wielding gunners.

"Hold the hand in the left hand, the knee of the arm joint, the back tail tightly clamp the armpit, close the left eye, look at the door behind with the right eye, shine at the star in front, close your breath, aim at the enemy, and then pinch the machine."

"Put!"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

A barrage of gunfire rang out on the beach, startling a flock of seabirds to flee for their lives.

"When the thief is ten steps away, and he is not as good as the star, he will lean the tail on his ribs, hold his hand in front of him, and pinch the machine."

"Put!"

"Bang, bang........."

Experienced veterans who have participated in wars,

For different distances, there are differences between holding the gun and shooting.

Although the charge was difficult and cumbersome, with the help of the veteran's hands-on teaching, the sixty recruits also knew a little.

At least in the past, soldiers who only knew that they used to use hoes to do farm work would also take and release guns.

This is also the advantage of firecrackers,

For gun owners, there aren't too many requirements.

Unlike archers, you can't practice it for three or five years.

It only takes a few months to train a firecracker, and even if you practice formation coordination, it will only take a few months.
