Chapter 50: The Arrival of Thermal Weapons
The news came that Sun Ce was attacked by a raider.
The arrow hit Sun Ce in the face, although he was not dead yet, I am afraid that he would not live long.
Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh, the historical trajectory still exists. Although it was a few months in advance, it still came.
And who is really behind the scenes, I'm afraid can only be a historical mystery.
Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Liu Biao, the Jiangdong family, and the ostensible Xu Gong disciples are all possible.
It's just that the possibility of Xu Gongmenke is the lowest.
In this era, the doorman kills the candidate for revenge for the master, and he is drunk when he thinks about it.
Now Cao Cao wants to go north, but if he doesn't mess up the south, he can't go north with peace of mind.
If Sun Ce died, Jiangdong would not be able to go north for at least a year or two.
Liu Biao and Sun Ce have been fighting, before Huang Zu was defeated, Huang Zu was left to escape, and it was also possible to send someone to kill Sun Ce.
Sun Quan's position of power cannot be ruled out either. Although this is less likely, who can guarantee it 100%. Killing brothers and fathers for the sake of rights is simply countless in history.
Or maybe the Jiangdong family wants to change the master, and it is normal to kill Sun Ce.
Because Lu Bu also knew that Sun Ce was also learning from him and began to reuse the children of the Han family.
But how can this not infringe on the interests of the family, because Sun Ce cannot give more benefits to the families like Lu Bu.
Moreover, although Lu Bu used the cold door, he did not reuse it.
Except for Ye Xiang, who is a county order, the rest are petty officials.
Because Lu Bu's plan is in the future, fighting with the family now is simply looking for death.
Lu Bu used the Hanmen to give the children of the Hanmen experience. After he expands his territory in the future, all these poor disciples will be released.
In this way, it is possible to reduce the conflict of interest with the local family as much as possible.
After sighing, Lu Bu immediately sent an envoy to Jiangdong. At the same time, there is also Huatuo.
If Hua Tuo goes in time, maybe he can save Sun Ce's life.
If Sun Ce could not escape his fate, then Lu Bu also hoped that all kinds of cooperation with Jiangdong could continue.
"Sun Ce, I hope you can also fight against fate!" Lu Bu sighed secretly.
On the second day, Lu Bu finally got a very pleasant surprise.
Saltpeter mine, found.
Although Lu Bu explained the approximate location of the area, it still took more than half a year to find the minerals.
How Lu Bu didn't rush to the military factory.
When he saw the saltpeter in front of him, Lu Bu couldn't help but look up and laugh.
"The order goes down and lists saltpeter as a top military secret. The mining area immediately implemented military management, and anyone who leaked any secrets was killed! ”
"No!" Although everyone didn't know why Lu Bu attached so much importance to it, the order he gave must be carried out.
How Lu Bu was not happy, came, the era of hot weapons that he had been waiting for had finally come.
As a military fan, Lu Bu is quite familiar with the formulas of black powder, smokeless gunpowder, TNT, and other explosives.
TNT certainly won't be able to be made for a while, but black powder isn't simple.
Saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal, respectively, are configured in proportion to 75.8%, 10.6%, and 13.6%, which is the black powder that is coaxing.
It's just that although the recipe is there, it's not simple.
First, both saltpeter and sulfur are purified and then ground into powder. The next step is to remove the water, and then the three are stirred and mixed in proportion.
This is an epoch-making product, and Lu Bu had to personally guide and direct everyone to develop black powder on the spot.
Because although he has theory, he also has no practice.
Zuo Ci, as the first chemist under Lu Bu, of course also came. The current Zuo Ci is amazing, although he is still only a junior high school chemistry level, but he is definitely the top in this world.
If it weren't for Lu Bu to stop it, this guy would have even developed a chemical fertilizer.
Because Lu Bu does not plan to develop chemical fertilizers, the impact on the environment is too great.
Of course, it's a long way off.
All Lu Bu thinks about now is to be able to make black powder, and then develop artillery and explosives packs to complete the first stage of the goal.
Lu Bu stared at the iron pot that everyone was stirring up almost intently.
In order to verify the characteristics, Lu Bu of course had to do it little by little.
Suddenly!
I saw a trace of green smoke coming out of the black gunpowder that everyone was stirring.
"Lie down!" Lu Bu instantly fell to the ground and drank out hurriedly.
However, although Lu Bu had done the ideological work in advance, everyone had no sense of experience in this area at all, and they didn't react at all for a while.
"Boom!"
There was a loud bang, and the entire iron pot was blown over by huge fireworks.
The three people on the side were also blown away one after another, and were swept to the ground by a huge wave of air.
After a long time, the stunned people got up.
If you hadn't worn heavy armor protective clothing in advance, you would have been seriously injured if you didn't die.
It was only then that everyone finally understood how terrifying this thing was.
Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh, fortunately, it was in the open air, and the iron pot was not sealed. Otherwise, it's strange if you don't blow up a big hole.
No way, although Lu Bu knew the formula, he didn't have the experience and machinery to do so.
These things, that's absolutely a military secret.
In this way, Lu Bu had to explain the characteristics and precautions of gunpowder to everyone.
Including the physical principles of gunpowder explosion, they are also explained in detail. Although many people still don't know a little about it, they can be considered to understand it somewhat.
Gunpowder is really dangerous, even Lu Bu can't help but be a little afraid.
Therefore, after all kinds of explanations, Lu Bu left this dangerous place.
The so-called gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, this is the principle.
Similarly, Lu Bu also set aside a separate area for the munitions area. The person who developed gunpowder was also the highest military manager.
Even family members are strictly monitored and protected.
After having gunpowder, Lu Bu also had a clear stage goal.
The first stage, naturally, was explosives packs and artillery.
Because these two things are relatively simple to develop, they use the principle of explosion.
The second stage, of course, is the musket. Lu Bu also has a specific goal, which is AK47.
AK47 has reliable action, good serviceability, solid and durable, low failure rate, reliable performance, simple structure, easy decomposition and durability.
It won't break, won't jam, won't overheat. In addition to these advantages, there is also a low material consumption and high production efficiency.
In other words, Lu Bu can mass-produce hundreds of thousands of AK47s.
Because for the AK47 of the "King of Guns", Lu Bu has a considerable understanding.
At that time, with such a powerful weapon, it is entirely possible for him to dominate the world in his lifetime.
Lu Bu is already a middle-aged uncle, although he has the technique of collecting yin and replenishing yang, who knows how long he can live.
Therefore, Lu Bu didn't want to wait, he wanted to hurry.
After having gunpowder, Lu Bu's plan was immediately accelerated.
And the third stage, of course, is fighter jets and missiles.
It is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country. But with this kind of awesome weapon, whoever dares to oppose it will reward him with a shot.
Lu Bu was very excited, and he was excited for three days and three nights.
Three days later, another happy event came.
