Chapter 21 Composite grenade

(The third update is here, and tomorrow is Monday. Brothers, you can keep the red tickets for me tomorrow! Ha ha!)

"General... These... These are the gadgets made for the children and soldiers in their spare time. They didn't report to the general, and asked the general to punish them!" Gao Cheng saw Xiao Tianjian staring at the semi-finished product of the pile of fast-made firecrackers on the table, and was immediately shocked. Seeing that Xiao Tianjian's face was unpredictable, he thought that Xiao Tianjian was angry when he wasted gunpowaste and doing these useless things, so he quickly knelt down and pleaded guilty to Xiao Tianjian!

Xiao Tianjian put down the cannon in his hand and immediately told Gao Cheng, "Don't say this! Forgive you for your innocence! The soldiers have something they want to learn. Just don't do it for them in the future! Gao Cheng, you put down this Shi Lei thing first! Tietou, go to the blacksmith to get some small iron pills that weigh one yuan. Don't have too many, just do it! If not, iron scum will be done! Gao Cheng, wrap me in a few paper shells, and the gunpowder hole in it should be as big as possible. Do it now!"

Gao Cheng was a little confused by Xiao Tianjian's inexplicable instructions, and he didn't understand what kind of paper shell Xiao Tianjian wanted, so he asked Xiao Tianjian what kind of paper shell he wanted.

Xiao Tianjian explained to Gao Cheng for a long time. Only then did Gao Cheng understand what Xiao Tianjian wanted, so he did not dare to neglect to find the paper and began to wrap it.

For him, who has been making firecrackers with his father since he was a child, Xiao Tianjian wanted this thing was too simple. Before long, he wrapped out two or three paper shells larger than his fists and sealed the bottom. There was a hole in the middle, waiting to fill the gunpowder, and Gao Cheng secretly thought about this. Isn't it just a large firecracker? However, if this is filled with gunpowder, it can hold at least four taels of gunpowder, which is more than the gunpowder filled in the stone mine. This is also too much! If this rings, I'm afraid even people will be killed!' The iron head didn't take too long. He grabbed two blacksmiths and got a handful of broken iron slag. Xiao Tianjian immediately asked Gao Cheng to fill these iron slag and gunpowder into the wrapped paper shell, pounded them with a wooden stick, sealed the mouth, and pressed a long lead.

After finishing it, Xiao Tianjian took the large paper thunder in his hand and weighed it. Although it was still heavy, the weight was much lighter than the stone thunder. It was estimated that the weight was only about one catty, with four taels of gunpowder in it, and most of the rest of the weight was on those iron particles. It is easy to throw to a distance of 30 steps with your hands. With the arm strength that Xiao Tianjian has cultivated after continuous exercise every day, it is not a problem to throw more than 50 steps.

Then Xiao Tianjian immediately took them to the back mountain, called several carpenters, and set up a few wooden boards more than one person in the open space to serve as targets.

Put a wrapped large paper thunder in the middle. Gao Cheng was ordered to ignite the medicine twist, turned around and ran away, hiding far away from Xiao Tianjian and Tietou.

There was only a bang, and the ground shook a little. Even if the large paper thunder exploded into pieces, Xiao Tianjian immediately rushed over and looked at the human-sized boards standing up with his buttocks.

"Haha! It's so useful! Come and have a look at these boards! Hey hey! If the enemy doesn't wear armor, there is no problem with injuring them! Even if you wear leather armor, you can blow them up!" After looking at a few boards, Xiao Tianjian immediately laughed. Although the power of this paper thunder is far less than that level compared with the grenades of later generations, it is already valuable to achieve this step in terms of the power of black gunpowder.

The iron head and Gao Cheng's fart ran over and lay on the board. Sure enough, iron particles were left on several boards. The small iron balls were deeply embedded in the board. Unexpectedly, some iron balls simply penetrated the board. If it flew to people, it would be sure that people could be blown to pieces. Compared with the explosive power of stone mines, it is not small at all, and the distribution of shrapnel is much more uniform.

"God, it's better to use this than stone!" Gao Cheng said to Xiao Tianjian with his tongue.

Xiao Tianjian nodded and smiled, and took the two of them back a distance. After more than 30 steps, Xiao Tianjian took a paper thunder and came close to the fire fold to ignite the lead. The lead burned on the paper thunder in his hand, and a green smoke came out. After Xiao Tianjian stepped forward with his left foot, he was excited. The force raised his arm and threw the paper thunder out to the place where the board stood in the distance.

He only heard another roar, and Xiao Tianjian immediately ran over to watch the effect.

This time, due to the landing point, there were no iron particles on the two boards, but most of the boards were still hit by iron particles and deeply embedded in the boards.

It's done! There is absolutely no problem to replace the stone with this, haha! The explosive power is still a little small. Continue to improve it, and it will be better to use!" Xiao Tianjian shook his head and touched these boards that were blown up with small holes, as if he were touching the woman's delicate skin. His proud smile almost flowed to his chin.

The iron head looked at the boards and smiled, but at the same time it was a little frightened. This thing is really powerful. If you throw it into the crowd, I'm afraid it will explode on the spot, which is really unpreventable.

Gao Cheng is also very happy. These days, since he was included in Xing Tianjian's army, he originally wanted to enter the new barracks to receive training. In the future, as long as he is more careful, he will be included in the soldiers sooner or later. In this way, he can follow Xing Tianjun to fight and kill, and he can also report Xiao Tianjian to him. My brother's life-saving kindness.

But Xiao Tianjian didn't agree to his request at all, but let him stay in the cottage and do this stone thunder all day long. If it hadn't been for the battle of the Stone Buddha Temple, he probably wouldn't even know what the battlefield was like. However, it was obvious that Xiao Tianjian was not satisfied with the kind of stone thunder made by him and several masons, and he always thought that these stone thunder was too heavy. This made Gao Cheng very depressed. Sometimes he also wondered how to satisfy Xiao Tianjian, so several masons were forced by him, and their craftsmanship improved a lot. The wall of the carved stone thunder was getting thinner and thinner, but it still could not meet Xiao Tianjian's requirements.

Now after seeing that Xiao Tianjian finally found a solution, he was certainly happy, so he nodded repeatedly and said, "General, don't worry, the little one knows what to do. In the future, I will not do the stone thunder and specially change it to these paper thunders!" This thing is much simpler than stone thunder. If there are skilled people to help me, gunpowder is enough, and I can make a few every day!

In addition, the small thing the general wants should be to let the brothers in the army light it and throw it out to hurt people. The small thing also knows something, which is very similar to what the general wants!

In the early years, I heard of a kind of thing called porcelain thistris. It is the size of a fist made of clay. The shell is like thistthis, and there is a hollow thing in the middle. It is filled with gunpowder, seal the mouth, and put the lead. After igniting it, it can also hurt people. It is said that this thing was equipped in the Qi family army in the early years. It is used to deal with Japanese pirates. The specific effect is not clear about the small one, but the small one also wants to burn some of this thing at the beginning, but no one can do it, so it's all!

The idea that the general came up with today is not bad. You can make such a powerful guy with paper. It's simpler than stone thunder and porcelain thistrel. If you fall to the hard ground, you don't have to worry about being broken. Then you don't have to burn any porcelain thisrus in the future!"

Xiao Tianjian was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard of porcelain terrestis. According to what Gao Cheng said, the grenade was much earlier than the era invented in his memory. Originally, he wanted to come up with a new weapon to equip Xing Tian's military, but he didn't expect that the ancients had invented this thing long ago. Xi, it is not a good way to use the burned porcelain as the shell to fill the shell with gunpowder and throw it out to kill the enemy. As long as the shell does not break when it lands, once it explodes, the porcelain pieces can't be underestimated for the lethality of the enemy!

So he nodded and said, "Okay! In the future, there will be no need to do stone thunder for the time being. At present, the stone mine shell that has been carved by the mason has been used up. There is no need to make more stone thunder. As for porcelain thistle, it is also a good thing, but we don't have this condition at present, so we will specialize in making this kind of paper thunder for the time being! However, you have to find a way to prevent moisture. Don't get damp after a period of time. When you use it, it won't be noisy. With the lead, you should also find a way to prevent moisture and not delay the use!

As for gunpowder, you have to think of a way. In the future, we can't just count on capture. After stabilizing our mind, we have to configure our own gunpowder. You have been doing this since you were a child, and you should also know what to do! I'll help you figure out about sulfur. I'm afraid we have to find a way to solve it by ourselves! But these are all things in the future. Don't worry about it now!

Well, it's getting late. It's time for us to go back to the stockade for dinner! Let's go!"

At this time, Gao Cheng and Tietou looked at the sky and it was basically dark, so several people packed up their things and strode back to the stockade.
