Vol 6 Chapter 1122: Military industry

She was right. Among the nine women, she was the only one who suffered the most, at the front and rear double doors.

Liu Xu smiled, let go of Zhen Mi, walked slowly to Fan Sui's side, and took it into his arms. A wicked smile appeared from the corners of his mouth, and said: "Madam, the mate is to your body. I like it tight!"

For Fan Sui, Liu Xu always had the purpose of venting. There was no gentleness at all. He liked her mature body and wanted to be brutal to her when he looked at her.

Fan Suibai gave Liu Xu a glance, and said, "Knowing that the grandfather likes it, and they don't blame you, I just hope that my grandfather treats me well and don't leave my concubine."

"Hehe, how could Xianggong leave Madam Sui'er? It's too late for Xianggong to like it!" Liu Xu laughed.

Surrounded by nine beauty, there is no way to be a **** in this day.

...

Early the next morning, Liu Xu recruited Tao Qian's officials and told him about the development of black powder, and asked Tao Qian to build a military factory. He ordered people to collect a large amount of saltpeter and sulfur. A large number of excellent craftsmen even recruited alchemists from the private sector, making them a special kind of official.

Liu Xu personally spoke, Tao Qian naturally spared no effort, the military factory was quickly built, manpower and material resources were put in place one after another, and the development officially began.

If the gunpowder is successfully developed, artillery will definitely be developed afterwards. It is estimated that it will be difficult to succeed without three to five years.

Fortunately, there is enough time for Liu Xu to need these things now.

At the same time, the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao finally started.

In June 199, Yuan Shao selected 300,000 elite soldiers and 10,000 horses in an attempt to attack Xudu south, and the prelude to the battle of Guandu was opened.

After more than a year of confrontation, the battle of Guandu ended with Cao Cao's overall victory.

Cao "Cao" made a surprising victory with about 150,000 troops and defeated Yuan Jun 300,000.

With the unification of the north, Cao Cao's power immediately stabilized, and, like Xuzhou, he was temporarily dormant and recuperated.

In Yizhou, after Liu Yan died, his son Liu Zhang succeeded to the throne and served as Yizhou pastoralist.

Liu Zhang was cowardly and suspicious. Zhang Lu was arrogant in Hanzhong and refused to listen to Liu Zhang's orders. So Liu Zhang killed Zhang Lu's mother and brother, and both sides became enemies. Liu Zhang sent Pang Xi to attack Zhang Lu and was defeated.

There was a state shepherd who could not even win against his subordinates. The news of Liu Zhang's defeat came out. Yizhou was in great chaos. The various forces refused to submit to Liu Zhang's jurisdiction and rebelled. There were also Liu Family and Cao Cao. Looking around, the form is dangerous.

Under internal and external forces, Liu Zhang listened to the words of his subordinates Zhang Song and Fazheng and welcomed Liu Bei into Yizhou, and wanted to use Liu Bei's strength to resist Zhang Lu.

Now Liu Zhang led the wolf into the room. Liu Bei took the rest of his troops into Yizhou and attacked Liu Zhang backhand. Fazheng was forced to respond to Liu Bei. Liu Zhang had to surrender and was finally exiled.

Liu Bei got Yizhou and immediately rectified his internal affairs, let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei lead his troops to repel Zhang Lu, so that Yizhou temporarily settled down.

In this way, the world of Kyushu is roughly divided by three forces, Xuzhou is the strongest, Cao Cao is second, and Liu Bei is the worst.

After one-third of the world, everyone is vigorously developing production, recruiting more troops, and expanding military strength.

...

The Xuzhou secret military factory is located in the depths of the Qinling Mountains. It is heavily guarded and barriers are set up at all levels. Without Liu Xu's order, even a mosquito would have to be castrated in it.

After nearly two years of hard work, the development of the Black Fire "Pill" finally achieved some results.

The test site was placed in a low hilly area outside the Qinling Mountains. Liu Xu, Tao Qian, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Zhang Liao and others accompanied them. Standing on the hill, they arranged urns of different sizes on the hill. Together, accept the Lord’s inspection.

Liu Xu grabbed a handful of black "color" powder from the urn and twisted it. He always felt that it was far different from the modern "powder". I don't know whether it is the wrong composition, or it is not up to later generations during the production process. Fine standards.

"ignition!"

Liu Xu gave an order, and a blood wolf captain lit a core of fire with a torch dozens of feet away.

Suddenly, after hearing the sound of "chi", the gunpowder in the urn was burned and the cork was pushed up high, but the urn did not burst. Obviously, the seal was not good. After the heat and pressure inside expanded, directly The cork was urged out, and there was no explosion of the container.

"No, seal the cork tightly and order!"

After the second urn was ignited, there was a "touch", and the urn was cracked. Although it was cracked, the urn pieces were only scattered on the ground, and it did not explode as expected.

"There is too little gunpowder, and it's a little messy and impure, and it's not powerful enough."

Liu Xu frowned and pointed out the shortcomings of the original gunpowder.

Tao Qian said to the side: "This is the first batch of trial production recently. The two rows were developed in two later stages and can be tested one by one."

Liu Xu also ordered the guards to light the second batch of trial-produced gun "powder", this time the sound was much louder, the urn was blown up and the fragments flew out, and the ground on which it was placed was also blown out of a small pit.

The surrounding counsellors, blood wolf soldiers, and ordinary soldiers were all surprised to see this scene. They did not expect that an urn filled with this powder would burst. If it were placed in the enemy formation, it is estimated that all the soldiers in the surrounding area would be within a few meters. He was injured by the flying urn film.

"It looks a bit, but the power is far from enough. Try the last batch."

Liu Xu nodded slightly, so-so like igniting a "medicine", but it was far from the application battlefield.

Captain Blood Wolf lit the last batch of gunpowder urns in the distance. This time, with the explosion of the "boom", smoke billowed, and a large dirt pit appeared on the spot.

The urn film "shot" more than ten feet away in four "shots", with violent vigor, and several wooden stakes "plugged" nearby were blown off.

Liu Xu was overjoyed and said: "This batch of gunpowder has probably taken shape. As long as it is improved, it will definitely become a military weapon on the battlefield."

...

Before the war, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were recuperating, and Liu Jiajun was no exception. Tao Qian was in charge of Guo Jia and managed military affairs, and everything was in order.

The broken halberd and the sand and iron have not been sold.

Dongfeng is not with Zhou Lang, Tongquechun locks Er Qiao deeply.

Xiaobawang and Zhou Lang have now become their own subordinates, and naturally there is no chance to possess Er Qiao.

Coming to the Three Kingdoms, if you say that you have no idea about Er Qiao, then you have come in vain.

This pair of famous Chinese sisters is a beauty that even Comrade Cao coveted. How could the hungry ghost in Liu Xu's "lust" be let go.
