Guo Jia, the ghost of the strongest military division

Chapter 99
Bet, bet!
Cai Yu straightened her chest.

The only thing that can be used in the military is charcoal, which can be used to burn the enemy, but the effect of charcoal on fire is not as good as kerosene.

She really couldn't figure out what role these three ordinary things could play?
very good!

Guo Jia smiled and said, "Girl, what will you do if you lose?"

For some reason, he liked to tease this sister-in-law very much.

"as you like!"

Cai Yu also went all out.

Anyway, this guy has almost taken advantage of his own advantage.

If he can really repel Zhang Niujiao's [-] troops, it's okay to let her follow Guo Jia.

As for Tai Shanyang's family, from the very beginning, she had no intention of marrying there.

Anyway, with Guo Jia around, let him handle it.

"Have character, I like it!"

Guo Jia gave a thumbs up.

In other words, this is what he admires most about this sister-in-law.

Can afford to let go.

It is a material for great things.

"What if you lose?"

Cai Yu asked back.

"How can I lose?"

Guo Jia smiled slightly.

Sulfur saltpetre charcoal is the raw material for making black powder.

As an agent of later generations, he is proficient in the manufacture of all kinds of explosives, and is even better at assembling explosives with ordinary things.

In this era, it is very easy to use the knowledge you know to make black powder.

However, given the chemical technology of this era, the purity of the required materials is limited.It is difficult to make some fine gunpowder, but it is not a problem to make some rough black powder.

Although it is just some crude black powder, it is still very advanced in this era of cold weapons.

"Girl, you'd better hope that I win, otherwise, if I lose, Zhongshan will be finished, and your sisters will be finished too. It's fine if it falls into the hands of a person who loves women and jade, but if it falls into the hands of those vicious yellow scarf thieves... "

Cai Yu couldn't help shivering.

If Guo Jia really loses, the sisters are really doomed.

Still hope he wins.

But after thinking about it again, the girl fell into this guy's trap again.

This bet is not fair at all.

"Guo Jia, you bastard, you lied to me again!"

Cai Yu couldn't help reaching out and twisting the guy's arm a few times.

Ahhhhh!
Guo Jia couldn't help but screamed a few times, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Master Prefect!"

Seeing Guo Jia walking in with a woman, they all stopped.

"Don't be too polite!"

Guo Jiaqiang endured the pain, waved his hands, and continued: "Everyone, continue!"

When everyone heard what Guo Jia said, they picked up the work in their hands and continued to work.

These craftsmen are another harvest of Guo Jia's journey to the south.

Every time he went to a place, Guo Jia sent people to recruit craftsmen who could fire, mine and cast, and promised a lot of money.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, the status of craftsmen was low, and most of them couldn't fill their stomachs. After hearing the call from the prefect of Zhongshan with a lot of money, how could they not come?
After coming and going, Guo Jia recruited more than 100 craftsmen.

After solving Liu Bei, Guo Jia immediately transformed the backyard of the prefect's mansion into a workshop and settled these craftsmen here.

This is precious wealth, and Guo Jia will rely on them to fight for hegemony in the future.

"My lord, Second Miss Cai!"

A young man greeted him, it was Zhao Yun's brother Zhao Shan.

Zhao Shan did not have the skills of his younger brother Zhao Yun, nor did he have many books, but he was very serious in his work, and Guo Jia also gave full play to his talents, and let him take charge of the workshop.

Seeing Zhao Shan come out, Cai Yu let Guo Jia go.

"How has it been going during this time?"

Guo Jia asked in a low voice.

Zhao Shan took out a bamboo slip and said in a loud voice: "This month, I received five thousand catties of saltpeter and five thousand catties of sulfur and realgar from foreign merchants. My own workshop burned five thousand catties of charcoal."

In fact, Guo Jia began to collect materials such as saltpeter and sulfur as early as when he promoted border trade.

After all, black powder is easier to manufacture than other explosives.

Saltpeter and sulfur are very common minerals. As long as you pay, many merchants will come to your door.Charcoal can also be fired by yourself.

The only technical bottlenecks are the two steps of purification and frying.

As for storage, Guo Jia did not think about producing high-purity chemical raw materials with the productivity of this era.

For him, that's about as good as it gets.

very good!

Guo Jia nodded.

Zhao Shan seemed to have remembered something, turned around and took out a clay pot, and placed it in front of Guo Jia.

"This is something purified and fried by several masters according to the wishes of the Lord Fujun. The Lord Fujun has to take a look at it."

Guo Jia picked up some powder, sniffed it, and nodded in satisfaction.

It seems that the craftsmen of this era are still very good.

Although the methods provided by Guo Jia are all simple methods, these craftsmen still make good purity and the grinding is very fine.

Black powder has initially taken shape.

Not bad!

Guo Jia was determined.

"How much raw material can be produced in a day?"

Zhao Shan pondered for a while.

"It's about one hundred catties, but if you work overtime, you can have two hundred catties."

too slow!
Guo Jia thought for a while, then said: "Pass down the official's order, recruit skilled craftsmen in the city, separate the production steps, and increase the intensity of production. In addition, the final mixing and proportioning step must be completed by a trustworthy person, pay attention to safety !"

The Zhao Yun brothers have always been loyal to Guo Jia, and Guo Jia also assured him of entrusting this core technology to him.

What is this?
Cai Yu looked at the jar of dark powder in surprise, and asked a little pungently.

"Girl!"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "This is a good thing, whether you can beat Zhang Niujiao or not depends on it."

"That's it?"

Cai Yu showed disbelief.

Seeing his sister-in-law's disbelief, Guo Jia smiled and said, "Well, let's see its power with our own eyes."

He said that he took a certain amount of black powder, put it in a smaller jar, and pounded it tightly with a wooden stick.

Guo Jia took a piece of oil and soaked the grass rope, mixed a little gunpowder, and inserted it into the jar.

A simple version of mine is made.

The two rode to the suburbs.

Guo Jia kept his men away, buried the landmines in the mound with his own hands, and left the fuze out.

"Girl, cover your ears!"

Guo Jia turned around and gave instructions.

why?
Cai Yu was puzzled.

"Cover your ears if you cover your ears."

Guo Jia said impatiently.

Although Cai Yu was a little upset, she still obediently covered her ears.

Only then did Guo Jia ignite the fuze with confidence, and then quickly ran back with Cai Yu.

He had already found cover.

The two covered their ears, and there was no movement for a long time.

"Guo Jia, what the hell are you doing?"

Cai Yu was a little upset.

Guo Jia was also a little stunned. It stands to reason that the fuze should have burned out at this moment. Why didn't it explode?
After a while, Cai Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and walked out of the bunker slowly.

"I want to go back!"

She was already somewhat disappointed with Guo Jia.

At this moment, Guo Jia saw a large amount of black smoke suddenly rising from the direction where the mine was buried.

Be careful girl!

Guo Jia hurriedly threw Cai Yu to the ground.

After a loud noise, a strong shock wave struck.
