Game of Thrones: The Strongest Dragon Mother

Chapter 436 Wildfire General Tyrion

The sky is bright and the sun has not yet risen. Astapor is at the coolest time of the day, only about 15 degrees Celsius.

Astapor Peninsula, 5 kilometers west of the city, is a brick factory near the sea.

Encouraged by the Dragon Queen, Pogba, the rib man, pushed out a cart for workers to transport mud bricks from the factory building.

There is a thick layer of withered, yellow and dry rice straw piled on the cart. In the straw, there are eight jars the size of pineapples, four brown clay pots, and four transparent glass pots.

Of the four glass ones, two were half filled with green liquid, while the other two were full without even a single bubble.

Wildfire!

Pogba slowly walked out of the factory building with a cart and came to the red brick steps where the mud bricks were drying.

Well, the red brick firing process is more cumbersome.

The viscous mud must be dug first, then coal ash must be added to the mud, and the mud should be pressed into the mold to be cut into mud bricks, which cannot be sent into the cave immediately.

The mud bricks must be dried in the shade in a ventilated open space, and should not be exposed to the sun. A layer of waterproof tarpaulin must be covered on the mud bricks, and then a layer of sun-proof grass curtains should be covered on the tarpaulin.

Mud bricks cannot be placed on the ground casually, and red bricks must be used to build a palm-width step above the ground to prevent the bottom bricks from being soaked by water when it rains.

Therefore, outside the brick and tile factory, there are rows of red brick steps one meter wide and hundreds of meters long.

After the mud bricks are dry and hard, they will be transported into the kiln, stacked together, sprinkled with a layer of coal, closed the kiln door, and ignited the brick kiln from the coal charging port above.

At this time, some of the mud bricks have been transported away, leaving a long row of red brick steps outside the workshop.

Well, not all of them were vacated, and there were seven "single rooms" separated by [-]-meter-wide mud-brick walls.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Pogba took the dignified expression of a bomb disposal expert on the stage, and moved lightly, but quickly moved the jar out of the cart and placed it on the red brick steps.

Perhaps because of the frequent practice of the road protection stunt "walking the fire", Pogba is very fast. In just half a minute, he placed eight jars on the separated steps.

But this is not over yet, the expression on Pogba's face is more serious, as if it is the critical moment of "cutting the red line or the blue line".

He took out a 30-centimeter-high bronze triangular bracket from the cart, and a net bag was attached to the bracket.

At the entrance of the factory building, under the eaves, Master Wood looked at the sky, and saw a red sun emerging from the east. He was so anxious that he couldn't help shouting: "Hurry up, the sun is coming out!"

Pogba also looked up to the east, and a layer of cold sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

The three-pointer moved faster, but also more cautiously.

He first put the jar in the net bag, and then gently hung the net bag under the tripod.

In this way, there are four tripods in total, four jars, two glass and two clay pots are hung.

Then, he also connected a long rope to the jar and led the rope to the mud brick wall two meters away.

Well, the steps of the rows of dry mud bricks are two meters apart, which is convenient for carts to enter and exit.

On the steps next to the jar, there is still a 1.3-meter-high mud brick wall that has not been removed.

However, the flammable tar felt and straw curtains on the mud bricks were removed and remained on the side.

Four fire mages with brown ointment on their faces, plate armor, and iron helmets stood behind the mud brick wall, and took the rope from Master Pogba with an expression of death.

"Huh—" Pogba let out a long breath, and the serious expression on his face became relaxed.

"Your Majesty, it's done!" He ran to the eaves and reported to the Dragon Queen on the grand master's chair with a smile.

"Then let's get started!"

With a wave of Dani's hand, the fire mage hiding behind the mud brick wall began to pull the rope rhythmically. On the red brick steps separated by a mud path, four jars hanging under the tripod shook slightly.

There were people standing on both sides of the queen's seat. In addition to fifty fire mages, there were also a dozen scholars. Even the white knight, old Aemon, Laresa, Tyrion, young Aegon, Clinton and others were also eagerly watching.

The red sun gradually rises, the red morning glow turns into a golden morning light, and the temperature rises slowly.

Tyrion's nose was sweating, and he said anxiously: "Is it a bit too much? A jar can hold four or five catties of wildfire!"

"What's so much? This small jar is already the smallest equivalent of the Dragon Bomber's 'kerosene bomb'.

You haven't seen the giant bomb I used when I took Dragonstone Island, it's about the size of a water tank, and it can even be used as a bathtub for you. "Dani said casually.

"Wildfire is not kerosene, it is dozens of times stronger than kerosene." Tyrion emphasized.

"If it's not stronger than kerosene, why do I|why bother with it? If you reduce the wildfire equivalent and let the wildfire can burn the same as the kerosene can, I might as well use kerosene directly, at least it's safer."

Tyrion was speechless.

At this moment, the little devil changed into a T-shirt with a gold frame with a black dragon embroidered on its chest.

In recent days, although the Dragon Queen did not participate in Cleon's trial, she was not idle either.

Formed the "Royal Dragon Mage Corps", built wildfire refining bases in Astapor and Meereen; went to Meereen, Kaiyuan, and Astapor, and participated in several "Agricultural Production Great Leaps"; reformed Centaur tactics, change the breed of cattle and horses; optimize and adjust the government agencies in Slave Bay

She is very busy and has no time to communicate with her eldest nephew.

While optimizing the powers of government personnel, Dani also reformed the titles of officials: the establishment of a seven-rank official title system, and the uniform clothing of government personnel.

The black dragon pattern on the little devil's T-shirt at this time is actually a patch.

Just like the "clothes and beasts" of ancient Chinese officials, the official uniforms of civil officials use birds as patterns to show the virtuousness of civil officials;

I have to admit that compared with the dastardly-dressed Datianchaohui, the political conferences in western countries with casual clothes are more than a dozen grades lower. They look like uncles and aunts gathering in a mahjong parlor on the street.

Even, the king didn't even have an exclusive "dragon robe".

One day in the future, Dani, who will become the queen of the world, will collect a gold coin, a copper pot, and an iron sword from various city-states, melt them down and build a throne.

She hoped that when she sat on the throne, instead of a messy vegetable market, there would be solemn, well-dressed, and orderly array of civil and military ministers.

Therefore, she first unified the officials' clothes.

The seventh-rank officials are red dragons, the sixth-rank officials are golden dragons, the fifth-rank officials are green dragons, the fourth-rank officials are white dragons, the third-rank officials are black dragons, and the second-rank officials are dark red three-headed dragons. Emblem), a first-rank official is a five-color dragon connected end to end.

Originally, little green and little white were indistinguishable, but following Dani on a trip to Westeros, there were thrills and rewards.

Xiaobai became a magic dragon.

In this way, Xiaolu became the third child.

Xiao Jin's fourth child and Xiao Hong's fifth child are not in dispute.

Of course, the Dragon Queen did not forbid folks to wear costumes with dragon patterns, but they were not allowed to completely imitate government officials—at least, they could not add gold frames embroidered with seven-pointed stars on the edges of dragon patterns.

The little devil wears a T-shirt embroidered with a black dragon, which means that he has become a subordinate of the Dragon Queen.

Uh, he also introduced himself to the queen that day: he has professional experience in the hand of the king, and Slave Bay is currently short of a prime minister, why not just leave?

Then he was ridiculed by the dragon queen for a while, and he had a miserable life.

Although the application for the Hand of the King failed, the Dragon Queen also took pity on his talent: the little devil used wildfire wantonly, turned the tables against the wind in the Battle of Blackwater Bay, and defeated the No.2 general of the Seven Kingdoms, Stannis, by an absolute disadvantage.

It can be said that Tyrion is the only one in the world today who has used wildfire on a large scale in war and won.

After the giant dragon became extinct, Targaryen also funded the Alchemy Guild to create a giant iron dragon that sprayed wildfire, and planned to use the iron dragon to deal with the Dornish people.

As a result, the iron dragon with wildfire on the way blew itself up.

Therefore, in the field of wildfire, Tyrion is really a rare talent in the world.

Emperor Dani knew how to use people well, and specially set up an official position for him - "General Wildfire", responsible for supervising the refining, storage and transportation of wildfire.

Today, Wildfire General Tyrion accompanied the Dragon Queen to test the stability of Wildfire.

"Ah, look, the wildfire in the bottle is boiling!" Suddenly, little Aegon pointed at the half bottle of water shaking in the distance, and shouted in horror.

"Watch out, wildfire's going to explode!" Tyrion yelled to the fire mage behind the mudbrick wall, pupils constricted.

"Google"

In the sunlight, green bubbles emerged from the glass bottle being pulled and shaken by the rope. Visible to the naked eye, the bubbles changed from the size of rice grains to the size of broad beans, and then rapidly expanded to the size of eggs.

"BOOOOM!"

Hearing the sound, it seemed like a grenade had been detonated; looking at the fire, under the bright sunlight, a green flame four or five meters high rose up in vain, and there were green flames everywhere on the nearby ground and brick walls.

The effect was like a sudden explosion of hundreds of catties of oil barrels.

The coquettish green flame was obviously extremely hot, setting off a billowing heat wave, but in the eyes of everyone, it couldn't make them feel warm, only felt a chill in their hearts.

"This is Demon Flame!" Little Aegon turned pale.

"Targaryen is still afraid of fire?" Dany gave him a sideways look and said calmly.

Little Aegon was startled, stood up straight, held his head high, and said firmly, "I'm not afraid!"

Looking at the panic in his eyes, and looking at the deep excitement hidden in Tyrion's eyes, Dany looked strange.

"Targaryen is not afraid of fire, but he should treat wildfire rationally." Old Aemon said fairly.

His eyes were very complicated. When he saw the wildfire, he couldn't help but think of his big brother who drank the wildfire, the "devil" Ailion.

"What's the temperature?" Dany asked as she looked at the armored fire mage running back.

Well, the shock wave from the wildfire bottle explosion was so strong that the thick mud brick two meters away shook a few times, but it did not collapse.

The fire mage pulling the rope finished his task and ran back.

"25 degrees Celsius!" The fire mage was full of fear, "Your Majesty, it's too scary. It exploded at only 25 degrees Celsius. The highest temperature in Astapor is 45 degrees Celsius!"

"45 degrees is the ground temperature, and the highest temperature is only about 32 degrees." A scholar said.

"Remember, violent shaking, direct sunlight, 25 degrees is the critical point." Dany ordered.

Immediately, a scholar took a pen and began to write "swish" on the document.

Thermometers are not difficult to make.

As early as the Ming Dynasty, Galileo invented the first thermometer.

It is very simple, a glass tube with a glass ball connected to the bottom is still open, and the error is relatively large.

Not long after the first thermometer was invented, an accurate thermometer capable of measuring human body temperature was invented.

Simply put, inventing the thermometer required a "flash" of thinking, not technology.

As long as the glass tube can be forged, technology is enough.
