Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 768: For the country and the people
[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
Fang Jifan always felt that the name Fang Zhengqing was not well earned.
There is no way to express my love for the Ming Dynasty.
How good it is to be patriotic.
In this way, every time people call their son's name, they think of themselves who are loyal to the king, patriotic, loyal to the liver, and serve the country and the people.
Thinking about it, I was a little excited.
Xiao Fang bulged his eyes, staring desperately at his father.
Fang Jifan then pinched his little face, feeling more and more that this kid was born in the same mold as himself. I can't help feeling...
Not long after, Xiaobian was hungry and screamed when he was hungry. The wet nurse on the side hurriedly took the baby and went to the inner room to breastfeed.
Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Xiurong with a smile just now: "Today Your Majesty asked me to go to Datong to defend against the Tatars. The Tatars are so numerous that they want to go south to hunt grass valleys, so we have to guard against them."
Zhu Xiurong frowned: "Isn't that very dangerous?"
"Not at all." Fang Jifan said with a smile: "I need to clean up the Feiqiu battalion and army horses first, and I'm not in a hurry to start. Don't worry, the person who can kill my son-in-law has not yet been born. I'd rather What he is good at is dealing with poor ghosts."
"Poor ghost..."
Fang Jifan said: "Aren't they just poor ghosts? This group of damned poor ghosts don't even have iron pots. They scream every year when they are hungry. When they are hungry, they want to go south to look for food. My husband, I have a kind heart, and I want to teach this desert three thousand things." In the yellow sand and grasslands, there is not a single poor person to be seen.”
Zhu Xiurong opened his eyes wide: "Wouldn't it mean that a lot of food will be wasted and a lot of gold and silver will be given to them?"
Fang Jifan couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhu Xiurong, Your Royal Highness...you really don't know the world.
………
A large number of skilled craftsmen selected from Wang Gong Factory entered Xishan Institute of Technology to study.
Zhang Weiyu, as a professor of the engineering college, led these craftsmen to manufacture the latest artillery.
In fact, artillery is not difficult, as long as the opportunity to do it is eliminated, the craftsmen are allowed to concentrate on casting, not to shoddy, and the quality of the refined steel is better, it is almost not a problem.
The problem is the shells.
The difficulty of shells is too high, not only requires high precision, but also the ratio of gunpowder is also a huge problem.
For this reason, the back mountain is full of rumbling explosions almost every day.
Adjust the ratio by different lethality.
Out of Fang Jifan's strong humanitarian spirit and sense of social responsibility, the matter of adding arsenic and poison to the shells was rejected again and again.
It seems that these craftsmen of Wang Gong Factory are surprisingly interested in poisons.
As if without adding a little arsenic or something, life would not be perfect.
Everyone had no choice but to respond to Fang Jifan's request, obediently adding iron bamboo, even iron filings, adding all kinds of weird things to it, and even... Some people think that feces should be added, like this black sheep, Fang Jifan severely After repairing it, do we still need the environment?
Most of these craftsmen who have been selected have the inheritance made by their ancestors.
Helpless, in Wang Gong Factory, they have almost no right to speak. They said that they wanted to build a cannon. Originally, they allocated a thousand taels of silver, but in the end they only got a hundred taels of silver.
And the ideas above are all wild and unconstrained, and they don't have the power to make decisions.
Instead, they came to the engineering college, provided delicious food and drink, and promised that after studying in the engineering college in the future, their future would naturally be indispensable. Being looked down upon by others, but in Xishan, life is good and there is meat to eat.
So everyone's brains were wide open, and they tinkered with all kinds of weird things.
Even for the flying team, under Fang Jifan's guidance, a brand new thing was born.
Here in the back mountain, a flying ball has been vacated. Fang Jifan led the craftsmen and the staff of the flying ball battalion to hold up the binoculars and look up.
The flying ball slowly ascended to the shooting range. On the shooting range, there were scarecrows erected one by one. Immediately, the people on the flying ball began to bring out a large package. More than ten catties, all of which are iron beads and iron filings. Of course, gunpowder is also indispensable.
If the power of the gunpowder is high, the airtightness must be ensured. Therefore, the outside is almost covered with several layers of cowhide, except for the lead wire, everything is wrapped airtightly. Then, the person on the flying ball ignites the lead wire, and the wrapped Sparks bloomed from the lead wire, and this lead wire was obviously special. In order to prevent moisture and wind, the lead wire was first soaked in kerosene, then fished out and dried in the shade.
Among the gunpowder, there was a small package inside, and the small package was even more tightly sealed.
These days, after the Xishan people ate, a large number of remaining pork bones and beef bones were all collected.
These bones were dried in the sun, ground into powder, and then burned into ashes, then mixed with silicon powder and carbon powder, then put into a glass bottle, heated, and finally obtained... is relatively primitive white phosphorus .
This white phosphorus needs to be refined with extreme care. It must be bold and careful, and a person with ingenuity must be in a closed environment with full protection. After refining, the white phosphorus must be properly preserved. Every step, It is extremely difficult.
Even if it takes so much effort, it can only be refined to a hundred catties.
...
This white phosphorous powder is now carefully added to the explosive bag, using the power of gunpowder to
The amount of it is exposed to the air, and then the white phosphorus will quickly become natural, but only God knows how effective it will be.
The explosive package was thrown into the flying ball immediately. According to calculations, the fuse burned until the explosive package fell into the shooting range before it exploded.
There was a bang.
The back mountain seemed to tremble.
Of course... In fact, the power of black powder is limited, and the so-called trembling of the earth is just Fang Jifan's psychological effect.
The explosive package exploded immediately, and countless iron filings and iron pillars quickly pierced through the cowhide bag and sputtered out. After that, the white phosphorus was released immediately. When the flames came out, a ball of flames and thick smoke rose up. After being impacted by the gunpowder, the scarecrows on the shooting range were immediately riddled with holes. Then, in the air, a large amount of powder dispersed with the shock waves, like will-o'-the-wisps , Floating around, a large number of scarecrows suddenly began to emit black smoke, as if they were ignited by the will-o'-the-wisp. In the end, 30% of the scarecrows in the entire shooting range as large as a football field burst into flames.
Everyone rushed forward, wanting to go to the shooting range to observe.
Fang Jifan shouted: "Don't get excited, everyone, don't get excited, just watch from afar and go later."
After waiting for half an hour to confirm that the white phosphorus was fully burned, Fang Jifan cautiously arrived near the shooting range. He deliberately slowed down and waited until the swarm of flying ball battalions and craftsmen entered the shooting range to count casualties.
Fang Jifan was very satisfied with the lethality. Seeing the mess in the shooting range, Fang Jifan heaved a sigh of relief, the money was not in vain.
After Zhang Weiyu inspected it, he discussed something in a low voice with a group of craftsmen, and then approached Fang Jifan excitedly: "Ninety-seven scarecrows have been destroyed in total, and this is the result of not enough scarecrows. The damage can be greater."
Fang Jifan nodded in satisfaction: "Be careful and careful when manufacturing. If it causes an accident, it will be over."
Zhang Weiyu nodded hurriedly, with an unharmonious face, with a happy expression, and raised his eyebrows: "The artisans just discussed it, and they said that if they add a little arsenic, the effect will be even better."
When Fang Jifan heard this, he was immediately furious. He was angry, and he knew arsenic, arsenic every day... Fang Jifan raised his hand, and slapped Zhang Weiyu on the face.
Fortunately, Fang Jifan didn't strike hard, with a slap, Zhang Weiyu subconsciously covered his cheeks, but he didn't feel any pain in his face.
Fang Jifan said angrily: "My Ming Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and our Fang Jifan is a man of morality. You who develop firearms should know that killing the enemy is second, and the most important thing is to attack the heart. Use arsenic to kill the enemy." , This is a shameful thing. Even the Tartars, they have no humanity, kill our soldiers and civilians, and plunder our women at will, but can we do such unconscionable things? I will let you know today , we will never be the first to use arsenic, this is the bottom line of our life."
Zhang Weiyu hurriedly shrugged and shook his head: "The craftsmen... just said, try it, whether the arsenic will work or not, I don't know yet..."
"You are not allowed to try!" Fang Jifan was upright, with a holy light on his face: "You are shameless, and I, Fang Jifan, are more shameless. You have no shame, and I, Fang Jifan, are even more shameless. Among you are thinking of poisoning, and I, Fang Jifan, are upright, I am aboveboard, I... am a moral person!"
Zhang Weiyu stuck out his tongue, not daring to speak nonsense anymore.
"Work hard and make more white phosphorus. These days, some pigs, cattle, and sheep are killed. Let everyone eat them openly. After eating, ask Wang Gong Factory for reimbursement. Tell them that it is used to make firearms. Eat it." It’s not the point, the point is to take the bones of cattle, sheep, and pigs, which are necessary for making firearms, and the war is imminent, in order to defend the country, they don’t give out the money, who will give it?”
"Eat cows too?"
"Eat." Fang Jifan looked at the guilty Zhang Weiyu: "If you can't finish eating up and down the West Mountain, bring a few more pots of cooked beef to the Princess Mansion, and call everyone to open their bellies."
Zhang Weiyu was overjoyed, and couldn't help touching her belly: "Beef is not easy to digest, and my stomach is still swollen now."
Fang Jifan clenched his fists: "No matter how hard it is, we must persevere."
"Oh." Zhang Weiyu scratched his head.
He felt that his brain couldn't keep up, what was going on in this world, his belt was loosened round and round, and sooner or later he would be stretched to death.
But... thinking about it, it's actually quite exciting.
……………………
The first chapter has been delivered, and I will go to Beijing to receive an award tomorrow, and I will also go to Lu Xun Academy to study for a month. Of course, this is not the point, the point is the tiger... The update will not be interrupted, and it still explodes every day, but the tiger needs a monthly pass. .
