I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Because of the upcoming Chinese New Year, the Central Plains, which has been in chaos for many years, has also stopped fighting at this time.

Even Jiujiang and other places that were still in a stalemate before have all died down at this time and entered a temporary rest and confrontation.

Suzhou, on the 24th, Xiaonian, Wu Changqing chose to have fun with the people on this day, and brought his family to the Xu River to set off fireworks with the people.

Firecrackers have been around for a long time, and fireworks have only gradually appeared since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. The fireworks in this period were very simple, they just exploded on the spot and would not shoot into the sky. And after the explosion, there is a flash of light and a little smoke, which is nothing to look at.

Mainly because no one knew why fireworks flashed, and what to do to enhance the effect of this flash, and no one thought of shooting them into the sky.

But these are all pediatrics to Wu Changqing, and he doesn't even need to light up the technology. He knows that as long as some magnesium or aluminum is added to the gunpowder, it can emit a strong brilliance.

In order to celebrate the New Year, Wu Changqing arranged for craftsmen to make a large number of fireworks.

One is to play for the wife and sister, and the other is to have fun with the people, open the eyes of the people, and by the way enhance the people's sense of pride, superiority and identity.

When ordinary people see that their country or their hometown is more prosperous than other places, they will feel a sense of pride in their hearts, and they will more identify with the current rule.

This sense of identity may not play a role at critical times, but it is still very beneficial for maintaining rule.

If Wu Changqing wanted to rebel, he naturally couldn't do it overnight. He first had to subtly enhance his prestige and reduce the influence of Daming. If you don't prepare in advance and rebel at that time, I'm afraid the people will not agree.

Although it is difficult for the rebellion of the people to cause any major chaos, the impact will always be there.

Therefore, Wu Changqing is now so vigorously promoting the establishment of the People's Daily, and at the same time reducing the burden on the people as much as possible, in order to win the hearts and minds of the people.

As soon as night fell, a large number of people had already gathered by the river. The news that Wu Changqing wants to have fun with the people has long been publicized through the people's newspaper, and many people have already known about it.

"I heard that Wu Guogong is going to set off a new type of fireworks this time. It is said that it is very beautiful."

"How beautiful fireworks can be, isn't it just a little light."

"Hmph, what do you know, Wu Guogong is good at firearms, how can you imagine the fireworks he made?"

Several people chatted.

"Do you want to light a fire?"

Wu Changqing asked Wu Yu, watching other people's fireworks and lighting fireworks by himself are two different experiences.

Wu Yu wanted to go, but the old lady glared at her and she didn't dare to go.

In the words of the old lady, girls should be quiet and elegant, dignified and generous, not crazy, otherwise they will not be able to marry in the future, and it will be shameful to marry.

Seeing that Wu Yu didn't dare to come, Wu Changqing lit a firework himself.

"Beep."

The fireworks made a sharp sound, rushed up to a height of more than ten meters, and then exploded. The magnesium strips that spread out to the surroundings immediately burned, very bright, like a blooming flower.

"Wow, these are the fireworks of the grandfather of the country."

"beautiful."

"Ah, I want to have these fireworks too."

It was the first time that the people saw such big and bright fireworks, and they could go up to the sky, and they were all stunned.

And those young children have already started screaming in various ways. Of course they also want this kind of fun stuff. This kind of fireworks is much better than firecrackers.

Some young ladies who seldom go out, seeing this kind of beauty at this time, are even more intoxicated by it, and they can't wait to write a poem. However, after thinking hard, most people found the fact that they were ignorant of their talents.

Wu Changqing lit the first shot himself, and then Wu Zheng and some soldiers started to ignite. They lit ten shots at the same time according to the plan.

Ten fireworks in full bloom are much more spectacular than a single one. The whole night is illuminated, and the whole sky is like a picture scroll.

"It's a pity that this kind of beauty lasts too short."

"Time is dark, fireworks are easy to cool, and old dreams are warm."

"Such a beautiful scenery, you should write a poem."

Several readers are also admiring the fireworks, and seeing this beautiful scene, several of them are also very poetic.

"If it weren't for the fact that the north was still occupied by the Manchu and Qing Tatars, this scene would be like a prosperous world."

A scholar said with emotion.

"Brother Cui, rest assured, with Wu Guogong's bravery, it is only a matter of time before the North will be recovered."

Another scholar laughed.

The current Suzhou people are very confident in Wu Changqing, because Wu Changqing always wins battles, and the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment, and business is prosperous.

This is enough to show that Wu Changqing is a capable minister.

After ten bursts, the next is twenty bursts.

These twenty are not ignited at the same time, but are ignited continuously according to a certain frequency, about one every three seconds.

This rhythmic and regular ignition method can make the effect of fireworks bloom more rhythmic and beautiful.

This kind of bursting method made the sky never stop blooming, one after another, causing a burst of exclamations from the people.

After twenty bursts, the climax came, and one hundred soldiers were ready at the same time. As the whistle of the head of the hundred households sounded, one hundred people set fire to the fire at the same time.

Suddenly, after a loud bang, the sky exploded at the same time.

Hundreds of fireworks were set off.

This kind of momentum is extremely huge, giving people a very shocking feeling.

Even well-informed modern people will feel shocked when they see such a scene, let alone those ancient people who have no knowledge. The first time they see such a grand event, they will all be unforgettable.

While unforgettable about this grand occasion, they will not forget that Wu Changqing brought all this. Wu Changqing will gradually be equated with the word "magic".

"It's so beautiful, I've never heard that fireworks can be so beautiful."

Chen Yuyan was already fascinated, and at the same time intoxicated in this grand occasion.

She felt that she was the happiest woman in the world, because Wu Changqing said that these fireworks were specially made for her to relieve her boredom.

If the husband is like this, what can the husband ask for?

Wu Yu is extremely proud that she has a powerful brother who loves her, because Wu Changqing also told her that this was specially made for her to see and play with.

In the People's Daily, Wu Changqing said that all this was actually for the sake of enjoying the people, and it was specially shown to the people.

After the fireworks were set off, Wu Changqing and others returned to the Guogong Mansion, while the people continued to celebrate on the street.

Different from the usual celebrations, this year they have one more topic, that is fireworks.

Such a magical and beautiful thing, everyone is in addition to being amazed or amazed. And those who didn't go to see the scene for some reason can only leave a big regret after hearing other people's descriptions.
