"Could it be that you have a way to resist Zhao Jun's gunpowder attack?" Sun Ce asked.

The reason why there is no confidence, Pang Tong is right, is because of Zhao Jun's gunpowder.

They don't know how it's made, but they now at least know that something that explodes is called gunpowder.

It's not a clay pot fire pot, it's just gunpowder in a clay pot.

"Wu Hou knows, there is a warlock alchemy, and the Dan furnace explodes?" Pang Tong said.

Pang Tong did not experience the battle outside Xiangyang City, but it was not far from Xiangyang, and Pang Tong also heard the explosion.

Although he was still not sure how Zhao Hui made it, from Liu Bei Cao Cao's mouth, Pang Tong immediately thought of the pictures of those warlocks' alchemy furnaces.

It's all the same explosion, and the Dan furnace exploded, and Zhao Hui's clay pot exploded, which also had similarities.

"You said that gunpowder was obtained by the warlock alchemy?" Sun Ce asked.

"If Wu Hou doesn't believe it, he can find a warlock and ask, they may not understand gunpowder, but they must know that the Dan furnace has exploded. Just give me a month, and I'll be able to make gunpowder. Pang Tong said.

This is not an exaggeration by Pang Tong, when he came to Yangzhou, he had already asked Liu Bei to snarn those warlocks.

When the time comes, from the experience of those warlocks in the explosive furnace, Pang Tong can find something consistent from it, and with only a few experiments, he will be able to discover the secrets of the explosive furnace and thus know how to develop gunpowder.

Therefore, Liu Bei and Cao Cao, who fled to Jiangxia, did not give up even though they only had 10,000 soldiers and horses in their hands now.

Pang Tong said that it would take a month to study gunpowder, and they now needed Sun Ce very much to stop Zhao Hui and help delay it for a month.

By the next month, when both sides have gunpowder, Zhao's advantage will not be so great.

At the beginning, it took Shen Kui more than half a year to get out the gunpowder.

But this is only black powder after all, the process is not very high, Pang Tong only needs to figure out the raw materials, in a good grasp of the proportion, may not be able to reach the power of Zhao Jun's current clay pot, but as long as it is not very bad, it is also a great threat to Zhao Jun, and at the same time it can improve the morale of Cao, Liu and Sun.

It doesn't even need to be very powerful, as long as the sound of the explosion can catch up with Zhao Jun's gunpowder.

Sun Ce hated warlocks very much, and the warlocks in Yangzhou were very low-key, but they only made their own alchemy, but they didn't dare to come out and say that their elixir could make people immortal.

However, it was relatively easy for him to find a few warlocks.

Although I don't believe what Pang Tong said, within a month, you can make the same gunpowder as Zhao Jun.

But Sun Ce still found a few warlocks and questioned them separately.

As a result, there are really a few experiences with fryers, which are similar to the explosion of Zhao Jun's clay pots.

Even those who have no experience in fryers have seen or heard from their masters or friends.

"Taifu and Prime Minister have already invited more than a dozen warlocks in Jiangxia, and after I go back this time, I will be able to study the method of making gunpowder from the materials they provide." Pang Tong said with confidence.

"What you said is true?" Sun Ce asked again.

"If there is no hope, Taifu and Prime Minister are defeated in Xiangyang, why don't you give up?" Pang Tong said.

"Because, they know that if they don't give up, there is hope."

"If you don't give up, there is hope." Sun Ce read.

This sentence, like a seed, was planted in his heart, quickly took root and sprouted, thrived, and suddenly became a big tree.

I didn't want to fight because I couldn't see hope.

He was originally an overlord figure, and he dared to fight, otherwise it would be impossible to break away from Yuan and grow rapidly and rule Yangzhou.

"Okay, I can give you a month." Sun Ce changed his mind again.

This time, the willingness to let Zhou Yu send troops to Jingzhou was stronger than the last time.

The last time, when Zhou Yu was asked to send troops, it was more about the brotherhood between the two.

And this time he promised Pang Tong, that is, Sun Ce himself, and really rekindled hope.

Zhou Yu, who brought Pang Tong to see Sun Ce, has not spoken since he came in.

For what Pang Tong said, he didn't think it was very clever, but he really ignored the relationship between gunpowder and alchemy.

After listening to the words of those warlocks, there was no need for Pang Tong, Zhou Yu thought that with a little time, he could also study gunpowder.

The heart that originally wanted to go into seclusion was also ignited again.

He and Sun Ce were still young, if it weren't for Sun Ce's previous loss of confidence, Zhou Yu would definitely not want to go into hiding.

"Sure enough, it is worthy of being a phoenix, and it is worthy of being a talented person who knows that he can win the world."

Zhou Yu was not jealous in his heart, but was glad that he had brought Pang Tong to see Sun Ce.

Pang Tong himself didn't expect that he could rekindle Sun Ce's fighting spirit.

He asked Zhou Yu to bring him to see Sun Ce this time, and it was best to be able to convince Sun Ce, and secondly, his goal was to hope that Sun Ce could let him leave Yangzhou and return to Jiangxia.

Now, both goals have been achieved, and the result of seeing Sun Ce this time is very perfect.

After Pang Tong left, Sun Ce said, "Gong Jin, do you have a way to make gunpowder?" ”

After all, Pang Tong is Liu Bei's person, and he makes gunpowder, and Sun Ce will not rest assured.

This kind of killing weapon is best mastered by yourself.

"Don't worry, give me these warlocks, and within a month, I can make them." Zhou Yu is full of confidence.

He didn't think he would lose to Pang Tong.

Although he really didn't think of the pill before, it was only because he hadn't touched it.

He didn't know that the Warlock Alchemy would have a situation of a fried furnace.

Pang Tong was freed, and he immediately returned to Jiangxia by boat.

Sun Ce gave him a month, and he had to hurry.

Moreover, although Sun Ce agreed, it is still unknown whether they can hold out for a month in the face of Zhao Hui's army.

Now, what they can rely on is a Yangtze River natural insurance.

Zhao Hui has already led the army and set off from Xiangyang.

However, because the army led by Zhao Hui now is almost all landlubbers, and almost none of them have ever taken a warship, the army still takes the land route, which is much slower than the waterway.

Pang Tong returned to Jiangxia and immediately began to study.

The warlocks that Liu Bei found had already listed all the materials placed in the Dan furnace when they exploded the furnace before.

Pang Tong picked out the repetitive materials, and then put more than a dozen Dan furnaces in one go.

Let those warlocks use these repetitive materials to combine and refine the elixir separately.

Originally, these warlocks refining the elixir took three or five days, or even seven or forty-nine days, or even nine hundred and eighty-one days.

But the materials used were all used to fry the furnace before, and when these warlocks were refining, he was also worried, but under the supervision of Pang Tong Liu Bei, they didn't dare to be lazy.
