Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 533 The Invention of Gunpowder
Chapter 548 The Invention of Gunpowder
Daqin won two counties in a row, which suddenly increased the country's land area by a lot.

For Meng Tian, ​​Wang Ben, Li Xin and others who have made great contributions, Ying Zheng received another round of rewards.

Although these people have reached the point where they can't be sealed, it doesn't affect them.

After all, as a great emperor, he could not enshrine his subjects, but he could enshrine his sons and family members. This simple method is still very understandable.

The six parts have been successfully put on the right track, and everything is moving forward.

Fuyu, King Jizi and other Korean kings who had just surrendered all arrived in Xianyang. Yingzheng invited these foreign leaders and kings, as well as civil and military officials, to watch the new weapons made by the foundry of the Ministry of Industry outside Xianyang.

The entire foundry is operating in an orderly manner under the coordination of these four people, providing Daqin with farm tools, iron cavalry, excellent armor and weapons, brocades, cloth, and so on.Regardless of the military or the people's livelihood, most of the daily supplies of Daqin except food are formed from the output of Shangfang.

This does not include the casting of gold, silver and copper coins that have now become the mainstream currency of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Daqin Foundry has now become an important pillar related to the people's livelihood in the world.

According to common sense, every new weapon developed by the foundry must be reported to the Ministry of War for approval, but this time the whole process is extremely confidential, and few people except Ying Zheng know about it.

"All ready?" Ying Zheng asked, looking at Zheng Guo in front of him.

"Return to Your Majesty, it's ready!" Zheng Guo replied respectfully with a flash of excitement in his eyes when he heard Ying Zheng's question.

"Lead the way ahead!" Ying Zheng didn't hide the joy on his face at all. He looked back at the officials who were still confused and said with a smile: "My dear friends, how about going with me to have a look?"

"I will obey your orders!"

Although he was puzzled, it was clear that the answer to the mystery was about to be revealed.

Turn around the hill.The scenery in front of him suddenly changed.

The originally sparse mountain body seems to be squeezed suddenly here, forming a strange scene of a line of sky.In the middle is a gravel path no more than one foot wide, but on both sides of the path are extremely steep vertical cliffs.It is true that one man is in charge of the other.

After passing a line of sky that was no more than a hundred feet long, the space ahead suddenly opened up.What appeared in front of us was a huge intermountain basin.Surrounded by mountains.A huge sunken flat land is formed in the middle.

There are many houses, and you can't see the edge at a glance.With the sound of running water, a natural waterfall falls from the mountain ridge to the west, forming a lake with a radius of about [-] mile in the west of the basin.At this moment, there are more than ten boats parked in the middle of the lake.

Entering the valley, everyone and others immediately found more guards patrolling.As for the wooden houses in the valley, dozens of them are gathered together, and then separated by fences, forming four huge settlements.

Zheng Guo then flipped his hand and a command flag appeared, and waved it.

Seeing the flag chairs, more than a dozen boats that had been staying in the lake started to gallop towards the shore.But there is one building that never moves.

"My dear friends, today, you will see an invention that changes my Great Qin and the world. From now on, my Great Qin's invincible teacher will have another invincible weapon for attacking cities and plundering land. With it, this The whole world will tremble under my feet!"

Ying Zheng pointed to the solitary boat in the lake and turned his head to the bewildered Feng Quji and the others.

"call out!"

A rocket shot out from the shore with the sound of piercing through the air, and galloped straight to the building boat standing in the center of Xuan.

The one who shoots the arrow is a guard.

However, at the same time when his arrow left his hand, he quickly put away the strong bow in his hand, quickly turned around and ran towards the east far away from Xuan.

The rocket drew a scorching trace in the air, and accurately shot at the small flag on the top of the boat in the lake.

The small flag that was shot by the rocket ignited instantly without any accident, and burned out after a while.The building ship was still intact, and nothing happened.

The many courtiers and alien leaders who only had a single-lens telescope could clearly see that a small fire wire on the flagpole was burning with sparks flying everywhere.

Although the burning speed was not very fast, everyone seemed to hear a "sizzling" sound from the splashing sparks.

Can such a small spark ignite the whole building?
Thin sparks soon ignited to the base of the flagpole.

"boom!"

Without warning, a loud noise like the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder resounded throughout the basin.

This loud noise was like the roar of a god, making the whole earth tremble!

Of course, the people holding the binoculars can be said to see the most clearly, and also the most intuitive.

Through the monocular, Wei Liao and others could clearly see that when the little spark burned to the bottom of the flagpole, it burst out with incomparable light and brightness.stung their eyes.

In the orange-red fire with thick black smoke, the solid and small ship was instantly torn into countless pieces by an inexplicable force and scattered away.The originally calm lake seemed to be stirred by a giant beast. In the lake near the boat, a giant wolf several feet high rose up in the light of the fire, and then fell heavily from the air, releasing countless tiny crystal water drops.

The earth trembled, the mountains trembled.Even the sky was trembling, as if the earth would split open at any time, the mountains would collapse at any time, and the sky would fall down.

Many people were shaken by the loud noise, and their legs went limp and they fell to the ground.

Because this is no longer done by human beings, but by the power of gods.

Now the power of this god seems to have been mastered by His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor.Who else in this world can pose a threat to Daqin?

Everyone stared blankly at the spot where a deep pit was sunken, which seemed to expose even the black mud at the bottom of the lake, and watched the gradually calming lake water swarming in to fill the vacancy.

Roaring, blazing, shattering, today's scene will forever be engraved in their hearts.

The building boats that originally stayed on the lake have now been broken into countless small pieces, and scattered on the lake in Lixu with a little smoke.

"Hahahahaha!"

Ying Zheng burst out laughing after a short period of absence.

Although Ying Gang had told him about the power of gunpowder before, he was still full of surprise and shock when he saw it in person.

Through the efforts of Xu Fu and other members of the School of Chemistry, Qin Guo finally purified the gunpowder. Although it was not pure enough and would produce thick smoke when it burned, it was indeed real gunpowder.

From the very beginning, I studied in the Taiyuan Academy, but because the Taiyuan Academy is too close to Xianyang City, if you want to experiment with the power of the explosion, the loud noise will inevitably make Xianyang City and even Guanzhong panic.After all, there are many families living near Shangfang.

More importantly, it is not conducive to secrecy.

It was changed here.

For gunpowder, especially black powder, many people in later generations know its basic composition, but how to mix and match the final ratio and find the various materials for black powder are the key points.

Study materials, study proportions, and study how to achieve stable and full combustion and exert its power.In more than a year, more than half of the hundreds of death row inmates were burned, blinded, maimed or even killed by gunpowder during the experiment.

They are experimenting with China's artifacts with their lives.

Fortunately, as of today, all the efforts and sacrifices are worth it.
