After I was reborn, I became a plug-in for the country

Fei Yanggu felt his heart was too tired. After receiving the decree, he didn't know what to say for a while.

It's really that his situation is too chaotic, so that no matter who is replaced, he will be so angry that the veins on his forehead will show.

The whole story still has to start with the see-saw negotiations with Junggar.

Since Mr. Soetuso was dispatched to the military camp as a peace envoy, Feyangu gave him the highest treatment and the least tasks for him.Suo'etu also knew in his heart that he was just a non-staff member, so he would never interfere with the affairs of the military camp.

But that's internal, he can still maintain a certain level of advance and retreat.Externally, that's not the case at all.

Suo'etu, as an important court minister who has always been very important, has always looked down on Junggar, who is a bloody drinker, so when negotiating with Junggar, he can't help being a bit arrogant, and his attitude is also a little arrogant.

It was precisely because of this arrogance that he was severely beaten by the Junggar envoy during the peace talks between the two parties.

You may still have a little impression of this beating envoy. He was the Gerdan who once represented Junggar and traveled all the way to the capital to ask Kangxi for the aftermath expenses.

However, because of the withdrawal of the Russian army, he was suspected by his master, and the situation has not been so good recently.

The antecedents plus the consequences, the perfect collision of humanity and interests, and the condescending attitude towards Mr. Shangsuo, one can imagine how cruel Gerdan was and how miserable Suo Etu was beaten.In short, Master Suo was carried back on a stretcher in the end.

Because Suo'etu went to the peace talks on behalf of the Qing Dynasty, hitting him was actually hitting the court in the face.So everyone in the barracks took a deep breath and wanted to find a chance to avenge him.

Not only the Qing army, but Junggar also held their breath.

Junggar originally thought that they had an advantage in winning the game, and relied on this advantage to blackmail a large sum of money.They are not greedy, just enough to cover the whole family's living expenses for the whole next year.It would be even better if the imperial court was more cowardly and allowed them to blackmail a few more pieces of land and increase the scope for the sheep in the clan to graze.

The future is bright and the imagination is beautiful.But reality has to be funny.The Junggar people did not expect that the Qing army was very negative about the peace talks.The specific performance is that if you want to talk about it, I will talk about it, but whether to cooperate or not is two different things.

You can hit me if you want, but what I'm talking about is you stick your head out and let me hit you.

Junggar was surprised to find that the envoys of the Qing army quickly changed their faces like their baby who hadn't grown up yet.

The peace talks between the two parties that were agreed at the beginning of April turned out to be so lingering, and the time was dragged from May to August.

It wasn't until the end of August that the two parties really sat down at the same table "calmly" for the first time.Of course, the consequence of this peace of mind is that the conversation will definitely collapse again.

Suo'etu was beaten, so he was naturally angry, but this was the effect he wanted.

Yes, from the very beginning, the shrewd Lord Suo had such an arrogant attitude just to get beaten.

It is precisely because of Master Suo's "sacrificing himself for others" that Junggar's original winning advantage has dissipated at least half.The two countries are at war and have not killed the envoy. What is the matter if you beat up the envoy who came to the peace talks?

As a result, the peace talks could not be concluded, and the two sides continued to stalemate so painlessly, which can be regarded as achieving the goal of "can be delayed and never take the initiative" required by Kangxi.

The Qing army could drag it, but Junggar couldn't afford it.Seeing that winter is coming again, if they can't get part of the compensation supplies from the Qing army before winter, then the old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe will probably have to live through this winter very hard.

For these old, weak, sick and disabled, Junggar soldiers began to harass and rob the border line like flies every now and then, or occasionally went deep into the enemy camp, trying to lure Feiyangu to send people to pursue them.

Fei Yanggu was really annoyed by their operations. It is normal for the enemy to advance and retreat, but when I am tired of the enemy, it is really disgusting.

In this desperate situation, the emperor ordered him to send people to mine.You see, when a general becomes a free miner's foreman, who can feel happy about this change.

It's just so unhappy, so I'm going to bite the bullet.Fei Yanggu could only sigh, while trying his best to arrange manpower to search for tin mines around Yumen.In order to prevent Junggar from finding out the specific purpose, he also ordered the soldiers to pretend to be patrolling the border.

Yinfeng couldn't imagine how painful Fei Yanggu was.Even if he thought about it, he couldn't control it.Because he still has a big errand of his own now.

Since discussing the temperature of the blast furnace with Dai Zi that day, Yinfeng is now concentrating on how to make a thermometer.

Yinfeng had seen the thermometer as early as when he first started studying chemistry.Not only has he seen ordinary ones, but he has also seen all kinds of other thermometers flashed by the system.Civil and industrial.Even when he was studying biology, the system showed him the one for animals.

So when Dai Zi said that temperature measurement was difficult, Yinreng's first thought was to make an industrial thermometer.

But this industrial thermometer needs a machine, so Yinfeng can only choose to make a simple ordinary thermometer first.

Such a thermometer might be able to be made by the Imperial Household Department. It is nothing more than a combination of high-temperature-resistant glass tubes and mercury, and some tricks to seal them together.

Fearing that Huaiqing's message was not in place, Yinreng personally went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

When Ling Pu, the head of the House of Internal Affairs, heard that the prince was coming, he threw away his half-smoked tobacco, and hurriedly came over to greet him: "Prince, why did you come here in person?"

Yinfeng didn't have time to talk to him, so he just ordered someone to bring over the glass craftsman.

Ling Pu, with a smile on his face, hurriedly asked someone to pass on the craftsman.When the craftsmen arrived, Yinreng didn't even give them time to greet them, and said straightforwardly that he wanted to make a thick double-glazed pipe.

The craftsmen looked at each other.They have been making chemical equipment for Yinfeng for so long, and they know about Guanzi.It's not that they don't know how to do it, but they are all wondering why the master has such a strange request.

Even though they are just craftsmen serving their masters, their status is far from enough to be able to place glass in their homes as decorations, but in their eyes, it is not glass, it is "glaze".

"Glass", that is, the thinner it is, the better-looking it is, and the thinner it is, the more it can show aesthetics and status.

The craftsmen couldn't believe that when the master was making those pipes, his taste was still normal. How could it be the other way around after only two years?

Seeing them hesitate to agree, Yinreng felt unhappy.He was not happy, and his tone of voice was suffocating: "Can't do it?"

Ling Pu's long-term professional habits told him that he had to say something at this time.So he threatened the craftsmen in a pretentious manner: "You can't make what the prince wants, be careful with your heads!"

Since Yinreng's thinking was corrected by the system, now he hates others putting on airs in front of him (in simple terms, it's a double standard).After hearing Ling Pu's words, he threw a sharp glance at him.

Helplessly, Eunuch Ling Pu was busy scaring the craftsmen, and did not receive the signal at all.

The craftsmen were not very afraid of Yinfeng, but a little afraid of Lingpu.After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one, so his few scares are still very effective.A group of craftsmen immediately nodded their heads like pecking rice: "If you can make it, all the young princes can do it."

They said they could do it, so Yinfeng felt relieved.So before he left, he kindly avenged the craftsmen, and threatened the uncompromising head of the House of Internal Affairs with the same vicious tone: "Use the name of Gu to scare people again, be careful of your head!"

Hearing these words, Ling Pu shuddered at least three times.

In any case, the glass tube is there, and the mercury is next.

Yinreng went back to Yuqing Palace, looked through the deposits in his laboratory and then told Huaiqing: "Go, get some cinnabar for Gu."

He only had some saltpeter powder left over from the last experiment, and he had never thought of other ideas before, so he didn't bring other chemical materials on hand.

Huaiqing originally wanted to ask the master, which one do you want to do, but after thinking about the expressions of the craftsmen just now, he swallowed this question back to his stomach.

He ran to the hospital in a hurry.

Cinnabar can be used as medicine, so there are usually spares in imperial hospitals.Eunuch Huaiqing even blackmailed and blackmailed, and mercilessly took away most of the hospital's inventory.

Fortunately, there are as many as half a sack.

The spare medicine was taken away, and the head of the Supreme Hospital felt that this was unusual, and it was worth it for him to report to the higher authorities to explain the situation.Of course, the implication of reporting the situation is, Your Majesty, in the future, can you look at the prince and tell him not to go to the Tai Hospital to make trouble?

The cinnabar is so in short supply in the hospital, the stock was taken away at once, and it is very troublesome for them to buy it and return it to approve the note and go through the procedure.

But most fathers who dote on their sons have always been unreasonable. After listening to the complaints from the head of the hospital, Kangxi said without thinking: "If the prince must be of great use, let him go."

In half a month, his son was going to play with fire for the court, and now he wanted a piece of cinnabar.

The head of the hospital's lips trembled, and he didn't say anything else.

In a negotiation, if two of the three parties are satisfied, it is a very successful negotiation.

Yinreng looked at the loot brought back by Huaiqing, guessed the dosage, and thought it was enough for the time being.He asked Huaiqing to carry the things to his laboratory, then put on the equipment and prepared to start extracting mercury from cinnabar.

Mercury is mercury.This can be achieved by distillation.

Yinfeng put on the protective suit and the special mask, and began to operate carefully.

The process of waiting for solidification was very long, with repeated movements and nervous tension, coupled with protective equipment, he was covered in sweat.

Yinfeng was staring at the distiller of the liquid in his mobile phone. To pass the time, he still remembered the chemical formula taught to him by the system: "C

C2+2H2O>C2H2↑+C

c2(OH)2"

With his back on his back, he couldn't help thinking more and more astray, and his mind couldn't stop divergent thinking.This formula should be able to configure acetylene.Acetylene can be used as a combustion gas. If you want to burn paper or something, this gas may speed up the speed.

Yinfeng began to chant along the acetylene again: "Acetylene, acetylene, acetylene..."

Because his consciousness is relatively scattered, he changed his tone while reciting, and began to pronounce "ethanol"

"Ethanol, ethanol..." Yinreng's cheeks were itchy with sweat running down, and he didn't dare to take off the mask, so he scratched his face through the mask, and continued to murmur: "What will happen if you add mercury to ethanol?"

From the very beginning, the child was tortured by the system to memorize the periodic table of chemical elements. After a long time of torture, he developed the habit of repeating a chemical formula in his mouth to deepen his impression.

He occasionally denied himself: "No, no, these two didn't respond, it should be..."

After talking about this, Yinfeng paused.If he wasn't wearing a mask, you should have seen his face getting weirder and weirder.

"There is no reaction to ethanol and mercury, but it will be different if you add nitric acid." Yinfeng's eyes lit up, "Yeah, why did Gu just remember now, and he can still make that thing by the way."

What is that thing he said?It's a grenade.

This thing, like the firecracker, is too advanced to be able to make it.But when the system showed him the instructions, it used a grenade with a wooden handle.The grenade with a wooden handle, you must have heard of it, is a special product of a special period in a certain rabbit country in later generations.

The method is simple, and the power is not small.

Yinfeng wanted to applaud his discovery.That's right, while he and Dai Zi are making firecrackers together, the production of this thing can also be put on the agenda!

The biggest difficulty in making wooden handle grenades is the mine *.As for this mine, the raw material is mercury nitrate.

For Yinfeng, who has done many experiments, it is actually not difficult to make *mercury nitrate.

Nitric acid is first distilled with saltpeter, and then mercury and ethanol are added. As long as the quantity is controlled, it is easy to make nitric acid.

Thinking of being able to make grenades, Yinreng's heart beat like thunder, and he was very happy at once.

Just wait, make it alone, and blow up your bastards in the future (the bastards here refer to other Britain and the like).
