The solid shells slammed into the crowd with shocking bloodstains!

Wherever the shells passed, the Mughal people died and wounded.

Compared with the equipment of the Mughals, the South China Army carried a 24-pound marching cannon, which was not only powerful in lethality, but also had a long range and was far more powerful than the 12-pound marching cannon of the Mughals.

The Mughals didn't want to be equipped with larger artillery, but unfortunately their military industry couldn't keep up, and they fell in the wind when they confronted the artillery.

What's more terrifying is the flying thunder cannon, a weapon that the Mughal did not equip. Although the bombs dropped were black powder bombs, they were not bad at all. They were the kind of materials that could explode and polish stones.

It is concussive at close range, and at long distances, iron nails and steel **** are used to kill the enemy. The loud sound of the explosion has the effect of intimidating the enemy and boosting the morale of the army.

Azar Khan gritted his teeth with hatred and almost broke his teeth.

The technology of flying thunder cannons is not difficult, but if you want to build multiple flying thunder cannons and multi-purpose flying thunder cannons, then you can't afford it, and you can't afford it!

The emphasized words are said three times: "In ancient times, metal was money!"

Copper cannons are converted into copper coins. The quality of pig-iron cannons is very poor, and the world’s only the Southern China Empire can make steel cannons. Because the Southern China Empire’s steel production is the largest in the world, it belongs to the category of one country winning foreign countries. Great China is mighty!

The money used to make gun metal is smashing, and what's worse is that the thunder cannon throws money. The scary thing is that this money can turn smoke.

Black gunpowder is valuable. Compared with ordinary artillery, they use double black gunpowder, which is really hard to use!

In countries and regions outside the two Chinas, due to the backward productivity, black powder is relatively expensive. It is not because the army can be firearmed to achieve what you want!

China invented black gunpowder, and now China has the ability to produce black gunpowder in large quantities, turning black gunpowder into the price of cabbage, and playing their true role. This is really a pleasant thing!

The ingredients of black powder are sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal. Charcoal is the most easily available, but in some countries, charcoal is not easy to find!

For example, in the Mughal Empire, due to its large population, in many places, trees were cut down for fuel (think our Loess Plateau). At that time, there was no afforestation operation. After being cut down, there were no trees to make charcoal!

Either it is cut down, or it cannot be cut down for religious reasons. For example, Ah San likes to use sun-dried cow dung as fuel for many years, but he is reluctant to cut trees. Natural charcoal is not easy to get.

The South China Empire had many trees. Not only that, the Indochina Peninsula and Burma are all forest areas, which can make charcoal and thus supply sufficient charcoal.

The best source of sulfur is the volcano, which is naturally produced and has first-rate quality!

Sicily in Europe made a fortune. There is Mount Etna between Messina and Catania on Sicily. This volcano is the highest active volcano in Europe. The Turner Volcano is located at the intersection of the Asia-Europe plate and the African plate. It has been active very frequently. Basically, it has a little movement every year. It erupts and flows lava from time to time, which brings inconvenience and anxiety to human beings. It also brings fertile ash and sulfur. !

Therefore, Sicily produces sulfur and has wealth to make!

European white skin then used sulfur to make black powder, which supported the use of firearms.

After the South China Empire captured Sicily, the sulphur produced on the island was immediately controlled and no longer sold to Baipi at all.

The South China Empire is also the largest source of sulfur. First of all, Taiwan is a place with many earthquakes and volcanoes. Even extinct volcanoes have no eruptive activity, but there are sulfur pores and are rich in sulfur.

It is not for nothing that Yan Changwu used a musket when he started.

After obtaining Southeast Asia, it will be the nest of volcanoes. There are more than 100 active volcanoes. How much sulfur will there be?

Although there is a lot of sulfur, mining is quite difficult. Mining workers are called porters of purgatory on earth!

Ijen Volcano, an active volcano located in East Java, the top of the mountain is a heavenly quiet green crater lake, but the bottom of the valley is a hell-like sulphur gathering place, where thick smoke billows day and night, and blue flames erupt from time to time The rocks and the ground were covered with yellow sulfur powder, the unsolidified sulfur liquid was tumbling, and the yellow sulfur gas surged and pierced into the nasal cavity, making it suffocating.

It is in such a hell-like environment that the sulfur workers have to risk their lives by knocking down the cooled sulfur with iron rods to load baskets, picking them from the bottom of the valley to the top of the mountain, and then from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. They work every day from the early hours of the morning. For more than ten hours a day, they are immersed in the strong pungent sulfur fumes, which is extremely harmful to health. The only protection is a mask!

The sulphur production in the South China Empire belonged to a special business industry. The emperor cherished his subjects and allowed the importation of foreign labor. The subjects of his own country's household registration book were not allowed to engage in this work.

In the beginning, slaves were used, but it was not easy to manage. The production environment was too bad. As long as you worked as slaves for three days, you would just go the other way. Anyway, it would be dead!

Then the domestic employees from the Eighth Elementary School in China are willing to pay wages, but the ruling Cabinet Prime Minister Chen Zhongji thinks it is inappropriate. After all, they are the people of the Chinese cultural circle. Many people who die will lose face in the country~www. wuxiaspot.com~It was Ah San who eventually took over the mining work. Yes, it was Ah San. The Asan untouchables from Yishui were hired by an outsourcing company to mine sulfur in the volcanic sulfur mines of the South China Empire and conquer the great cause of the empire. In the middle, Asan used their lives to provide ammunition for the empire!

Every round of ammunition contains the blood of Asan untouchables, but livestock have no human rights!

In the 17th century, there were 10 million people and 90 million livestock living in the Indian subcontinent. Where can livestock have any human rights?

If you are in your hometown, the untouchables are in the tragic state of not having enough food and no money, but in the volcanic sulfur mines of the South China Empire, you can at least eat and have money to take, so the untouchables are flocking!

It's really tragic to say that you have given Asan untouchables work in this world of purgatory, untouchables also thank you, you can imagine what kind of life they live in India!

The establishment of official positions in the South China Empire is reasonable. For example, under the Ministry of Industry, there is a safety supervision department who is responsible for safety production. There was a young official named Tian Kexiu in the department who visited the Yizhen Volcano sulfur mining area. The production environment there He was shocked by the harshness!

However, through an interpreter, he told the untouchables that for the sake of their health, as long as they can go home after three years of work, the untouchables knelt down and interceded, saying that they would die!

As for the largest amount and the most cumbersome production process, the most difficult source is saltpeter. Natural saltpeter mines are rare, and there are very few nitrate soils that can be nitrated. The output is so large that China singles out the world, and our Greater China is powerful!

Now the army of the South China Empire is using firepower to attack wantonly, "bullying" the Mughal people who are short of gunpowder, and fighting them back steadily.

It's really better than people, maddening people. The Mughal imitated the Chinese to make a firearmed army, but they don't have so much gunpowder, so I can't afford it!
