Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 393 Gunpowder Success

Chapter 393 Gunpowder Success
"Hehehe, it's the first time I've revealed my whereabouts!" Fusu disdainfully handed over the piece of paper with the information written on it to Han Tan.

For what was written above, Fusu obviously had already expected it.

Feng's secret connection with the powerful men in Shandong has already been found out by Han Tan.

Rebellions have always been based on cooperation from the inside and the outside, and the tyrants in Shandong and the nobles and grandchildren hidden among the people are probably the external forces Feng wants to rely on.

"How about Lantian Camp?"

Han Tan cupped his hands and said: "The [-] elite from the north have secretly marched into the Lantian Camp, led by General Menghe himself."

Fusu nodded his head lightly. Obviously, with the [-] Qin army, Fusu was already relieved for the most part.

Lantian is only forty or fifty miles away from Xianyang. If there is any change in Xianyang, the Lantian camp will respond, and the vanguard cavalry will be able to enter Xianyang within an hour to participate in suppressing the rebellion.

Historically, the Lantian camp was the place where the Qin army was stationed. However, after Yingzheng succeeded to the throne, he used troops again and again. Even after the unification of the six countries, he did not stop. Use troops against the Hu people in the north.

Therefore, the Lantian camp was also vacant, but now it is being used by Fusu.

"Continue to investigate." Fusu ordered.

Looking at the situation in front of him, it seems that the time has gradually matured, Fusu weighed it in his heart, and said: "Call the Shaofu order."

Zhang Han had already returned from the imperial mausoleum, and as the Minister of the Shaofu, he selected qualified candidates from among the prisoners to form an army of prisoners, so Zhang Han did not need to do it himself.

The affairs of the Sangong and Jiuqing are cumbersome, and the reason why Fusu told Zhang Han about this matter is just to hope that Zhang Han can pay attention to it and not delay his plan.

After a while, Zhang Han came in front of Fusu. Fusu dismissed everyone around him and asked, "How is the training of the Habayashi Army?"

Although Fusu has never seen each other since the establishment of this Habayashi Army, but Fusu cares about this army no less than anyone else.

"The training of the Habayashi Army has been completed, Your Majesty can rest assured." Zhang Han immediately assured him.

Seeing Zhang Han like this, Fusu also feels at ease, Zhang Han's work has always been reassuring.

"The Habayashi Army will be summoned at noon tomorrow, and I have something to say."

"promise."

But at this time, a person hurriedly ran over, looked at Zhang Han at the side, and hesitated to speak.

Fusu waved his hand, indicating that he doesn't need to pay attention, and the man said: "Your Majesty, the gunpowder has been successfully developed!"

Hearing this, Fu Su's mind was lifted, while Zhang Han's expression was puzzled.

It's no wonder that since the development of gunpowder, it has been classified as a highly confidential level. On the outskirts of that courtyard, a group of heavily armed soldiers guards there, and there are also lethal weapons such as bows and crossbows.

As long as there are idlers approaching, they can shoot and kill themselves.To enter, one needs a warrant personally approved by Fusu.

Including Zhang Han, the commander of the Shaofu, they couldn't figure out what Fusu was doing in that courtyard.Even if Zhang Han is someone close to Fusu, let alone others.

Seeing that Zhang Han was puzzled, Fu Su smiled slightly and said, "Young Mansion Order, please follow me."

When the two came to the courtyard, Fusu gave a glance, and the other person immediately understood, and immediately went down to make preparations.

Fusu stood with his hands behind his back and stared at the front. Speaking of which, in order to develop gunpowder, he had failed countless times before and after. He could only try and make mistakes again and again, constantly changing the types of raw materials, and adjusting the ratio between raw materials.

At the beginning, when the raw materials were gathered together, there was no explosion effect at all, only a spark ignited.

Later, with the deepening of the experiment, some effects were produced.For example, before that, they reported to Fusu a kind of gunpowder, which has no lethality, but it can generate huge propulsion when stored in a small space.

This can also be regarded as a windfall!
Fusu also took a mask from an eunuch and covered his face. Sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal will produce a lot of pungent smell after burning, so Fusu naturally made preparations early.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready, do you want to continue?" At this time, a person came to Fusu to ask for instructions.

Fu Su nodded and said, "Go ahead."

Following Fusu's order, one person stood three or four feet away from the gunpowder in the field.

The gunpowder was packed in an earthen jar, with a lead wire left beside it, and beside the earthen jar, there was a dummy.

When the flames usurped into the gunpowder, a loud noise echoed in the courtyard. The earthen pot had already shattered into countless pieces, and the dummy also fell down in response.

Looking at this scene, Fusu's gaze remained normal, obviously everything was within his expectations.

Looking at the situation in the arena, Fusu also knew that it was extremely rare to be able to do so in this era.However, there is still a gap between this and later generations.

This also means that there is still room for improvement in the development of gunpowder. However, according to the current situation, it will be a matter of time before it is applied to the military.

Zhang Han looked at the scene in front of him, his eyeballs almost fell out, he was really shocked by the loud noise just now, the sound was louder than thunder.

"It's really the power of ghosts and gods!" Looking at the results of the explosion in the field, Zhang Han gasped and said with emotion.

For Fusu, Zhang Han also respected Fusu even more in his heart. Since Fusu was still a son, he had been giving him constant surprises. Now, although Fusu has succeeded to the throne, such surprises seem to have not stopped.

Zhang Han even thought about what kind of scene it would be if this thing could be used in the military. It must be a sharp weapon to kill the enemy.

It's no wonder His Majesty attaches great importance to this item, and the prevention work has never been more important.

Seeing that Zhang Han couldn't recover from the explosion just now, Fu Su said, "This matter must be kept secret by the Shaofu decree, and a word must not be leaked."

"Promise." Zhang Han also knew the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly agreed.

At this time, someone has already collected the first data on the scene from the place of the explosion regardless of the danger. This is the first time after the explosion. If you go deep into it at this time, the data you get back is naturally extremely valuable. It can point out the direction for the improvement of the next test.

Of course, this kind of suggestion came from Fusu, and Fusu was also quite emotional when he looked at the data recorded on the white paper in his hand.

In the world before BC, gunpowder was first developed, and it is not known whether it was a blessing or a curse.

However, the advent of gunpowder means that Daqin can speed up in many aspects, not to mention, just digging roads can greatly speed up the process.
