The Mausoleum of Qin Shihuang was born, and my immortal identity was exposed

Chapter 149 Gunpowder (please recommend tickets, thank you!!!)
"To be honest, there is really no good way." Jiang Sheng sighed softly: "To build this kind of firearm, the problem of steel must be solved first."

"With your current smelting level, it is too difficult to produce qualified steel."

Da Qin is now like a child who has not yet learned to walk, and Da Tang is walking wobbly at best.

But if you want to develop these modern firearms, it is tantamount to letting them fly, and the result is to fall on their backs.

Hearing Jiang Sheng's words, Ying Zheng and Li Shimin frowned.

But they also knew that what Jiang Sheng said was naturally reasonable.

No matter how envious the power of the Desert Eagle is, he can only put it down first.

Of course, the inability to manufacture modern firearms does not mean that they cannot manufacture firearms.

You know, as early as the Song Dynasty, there were prototypes of firearms.

At that time, bamboo tubes were still used, one end was sealed, filled with gunpowder, and a small eye was left in the gunpowder-filled part to draw out the fuze, and after being ignited, the open end was used to burn the enemy.

Later, Yue Mo felt that the power was not enough, and stuffed small iron beads in the front of the gunpowder. This was the sudden fire gun of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Look, people can make guns out of bamboo!That's just average power.

In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, copper pipes or iron pipes were used instead of bamboo tubes, which were called fire guns.

In addition, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, various hot weapons such as rockets, fireballs, fire thorns, thunderbolt cannons, and thunderbolts have emerged in an endless stream.

Modern firearms cannot be made, and it is okay to get some of these things.

At least in Daqin, there must be a place to stand.

Although the sudden fire gun is not as lethal as the Great Qin Crossbow on the battlefield, but it is also a sharp weapon to study the thunder and the like to attack the city.

So at the moment, Jiang Sheng said:
"However, there is something that you can send people to study. With this thing, it is very useful."

A group of people were whetted by this sentence, and asked Jiang Sheng to tell them.

Jiang Sheng smiled mysteriously, and said softly, "Gunpowder!"

Ying Zheng wondered, "Gunpowder?"

"What is this?"

"The gunpowder is what makes this gun so powerful." Jiang Sheng pointed to the Desert Eagle in Ying Zheng's hand and explained, "This gun itself has no lethality at all."

"Its function is nothing more than firing the bullet so that the bullet can be fired."

"And the reason why this bullet can be fired is that the gunpowder inside exploded."

The composition of a bullet is nothing more than a bullet, a shell case, a charge, and a primer.

This structure has remained largely unchanged since the nineteenth century.

The firing pin fires the primer, which then ignites the gunpowder in the case.

After the gunpowder burns, the pressure inside the cartridge case suddenly increases.

When the pressure rises to a certain level, the bullet will break away from the shell, squeeze into the rifle, and start to start.

Under the action of high temperature and high pressure gas, the warhead moves forward rapidly.

This series of reactions are all completed in an instant, from chemical energy to kinetic energy, producing huge lethality.

Naturally, Jiang Sheng would not tell Ying Zheng and Li Shimin about these energy transformations, but as long as they know that all of this comes from gunpowder, that's enough.

Sure enough, the people in front of them suddenly became very interested.

"Hiss, I thought it was the gun itself that possessed supernatural power, but it turned out that the gunpowder was at work?"

"So, the gun is not the key, but the gunpowder."

"But what if there is no gunpowder?"

"Old Zhao!" Jiang Sheng asked Ying Zheng, "Do you remember how the first Manchester City was broken?"

Yingzheng subconsciously remembered the description in the newspaper, thunder and fire strike together!

But he knew that all this was caused by those flour.

"Explosion?" Ying Zheng hesitated.

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Yes, it was an explosion!"

Among the people present, Fusu and Li Shimin had witnessed Jiang Sheng's dust explosion experiment and knew the power of the explosion.

And the rest of Daqin also knew what happened in Touman City.

A city was blown up alive, and the city wall was directly blown down.

Thinking about it now, I still feel a little scared.

On the contrary, Changsun Wuji and Yu Chigong didn't quite know what happened here.

The two couldn't help asking curiously: "What is the explosion?"

Since Wang Ben and Yu Chigong said goodbye last time, they felt a kind of sympathy for this future general.

Immediately, he spoke to the two in detail.

Jiang Sheng didn't interrupt him either, and listened to Wang Ben's bragging with a smile on his face.

Wang Ben said it with a straight face, as if he was in the scene, which stunned Changsun Wuji and Yu Chigong.

"Is there such a thing? How can white noodles have such power?"

"The method of the immortal master is really amazing!"

"Hahaha, then we will have another superior way to attack the city in the future!"

The ignorant appearance of the two of them naturally attracted the disgust of everyone.

Especially Li Shimin, the people on Yingzheng's side are very quiet, and he was very embarrassed by the two things he brought with him.

But he forgot that he lost his composure even more than these two that day.

"Okay, okay." Jiang Sheng waved his hand, "Flour is food, don't waste it."

"Let me tell you this, the principle of explosions all lead to the same goal, which is to release a large amount of energy in a very short period of time."

"Hey, you still don't understand, just one sentence, the explosive power of gunpowder is much greater than that of flour!"

As Jiang Sheng said, Ying Zheng and the others didn't understand a word of what he said about energy.

But they all understood the last sentence.

"What the immortal master said is true?" Fusu asked immediately.

That day, he had personally witnessed the power of a flour explosion. A small bag of flour could create such a large flame.

The immortal master also said that the power of gunpowder is much stronger than that of flour, isn't that true?

The rest of the people also stared at Jiang Sheng, waiting for his next words.

Jiang Sheng nodded, and said politely: "How can the firefly compete with the bright moon?"

The conditions for the flour to explode are harsh, and the power is just that.

Not to mention TNT, even black powder can rub it on the ground.

"Hiss!" Li Shimin gasped, "I still think this flour is a treasure, so there are such gods as gunpowder!"

Ying Zheng looked eagerly: "Master Immortal, please teach me how to make this gunpowder!"

Jiang Sheng chuckled and said, "This gunpowder actually appeared in your time."

"The immortal master was joking, how can we have the virtue to get involved in such a god?"

"Yes, Master Immortal, since what you said is so miraculous, how could we have never heard of it?"

Everyone is puzzled, they are all in high positions, if there is a fetish like gunpowder, it will definitely reach their ears.

"I didn't lie to you, this is an invention of the ancient Chinese." Jiang Sheng shook his head: "Speaking of its origin, you must be familiar with it."

Jiang Sheng let out a breath slowly, and said word by word: "Alchemy."
