Section 280 Urgent News

(Thanks to book friend Li Xiaotaozi for his 1000 rewards)

During the Dragon Lock Pass, Tianhao carefully checked the muskets left by the whites in the south. The barrel was very long and the workmanship was very good, but the range and lethality were far less than the products on Jeju Island. The whites' genetic memory obviously lacked the rifle part. When they shot, they used a strip of gunpowder to pound gunpowder in the barrel, and used this most primitive method to ensure power.

"According to your instructions, I will rotate the soldiers in the territory every two thousand. Half of the bulls and pigs will be trained on Jeju Island."

The current gunpowder production is very high, and sufficient sulfur ensures the supply of raw materials. When Tianhao left Panshi City, Quchi issued an order to strengthen the training of soldiers, especially musket shooting.

The rigorous training of the flexor on Jeju Island is cruel. Hydraulic machinery has doubled the efficiency of barrel manufacturing. The powerful logistics supply ensures that the trainees have a firing volume of at least 100 bullets a day, sometimes even 150. Despite the large amount of gun wear, the Jeju Island Ordnance Warehouse is still stocked with 7,000 brand new flintlock rifles.

This is a necessary stock set by Tianhao before leaving. The plan is clear and can only wait for the gun, not the gun. Everyone in the entire Panshi Leader Team must receive training, and the personal hit rate must reach 50%. Three shots and two shots are excellent. Depending on the specific situation, they can be promoted to the team officer or the shooting instructor.

Artillery training was conducted at the same time.

The artillery currently produced in Jeju Island is classified by caliber. Because it cannot solve the explosion technology, existing artillery can only fire internship shells. Tianhao does not blindly pursue caliber, and 150 mm is enough to apply. This is a heavy artillery. Depending on the specific use, it is filled with round and chain shells. The finished artillery products are given priority to the Navy, and Zhengjiang is responsible for it. Of course, Tianhao has not yet announced the word "navy". In addition to daily patrols, most of the sailors of the fleet receive artillery training in Jeju Island. If the plan goes well, no less than three thousand gunners will be generated from these people by the latest spring next year.

The 100 mm caliber cannon is installed on a wooden gun mount with pulleys at the bottom, which can be carried out on relatively smooth roads. This light artillery is simple and convenient. Depending on the situation, it uses solid projectiles and shotguns respectively. As long as the quantity and supply of gunpowder is ensured, it is enough to cause devastating damage to the existing barbarian buildings.

The 70mm handheld cannon is more like an enlarged version of Lei Mingden of the Civilized Age. The overall design concept uses a shotgun version. It is mainly iron sand and steel balls. When used, it is pounded into gunpowder and used the trigger to wiping the spindle sparks to shoot. The sprayed gun bullets can sweep into the fan-shaped surface of fifty to seventy meters in front of it. However, its disadvantages are also obvious that there is no replacement ammunition and cannot be fired again in a short time. There is no need to use queue shooting for this close-range weapon. Tianhao developed it only for use in specific occasions. They are only distributed to special troops, with two loads per person, and after use, they are handed over to logistics personnel for processing, or they can be reloaded directly from auxiliary personnel.

The development and manufacturing of grenades have been officially put on the agenda.

Nitrgiller is very powerful, and the kinetic energy released by the explosion is far greater than that of black gunpowder. This thing is very dangerous because it is a liquid, and it will explode there when it flows. Tianhao used the same method as Nobel in the civilization era, adsorbing nitrgiller with porous diatomaceous earth to make it into solid explosives. The small trigger detonation device is very simple, and with the prefabricated internal meshed metal shell, although the pull rope fuse looks primitive, it surpasses the normal understanding of weapons by the northern barbarians.

The development of landmines is carried out at the same time. This thing is simpler than a grenade and is not difficult to make.

Research on pointed cone warheads is more difficult for curved teeth, but in Tianhao's opinion, he is one of the most suitable researchers. The spores separated from his body contain genetic memory, which is an extremely subtle existence. Scattered fragmentary memory can often work at the right time. Words like "a flash of inspiration" are suitable for such occasions. This is how small detonating devices are produced. Qutine himself also feels very confused that he can create molds of such devices and draw drawings. However, the gods are on it, Qutine vowed that he has never seen anything like that and does not understand the principle.

The relevant content is supplemented the day after tomorrow. This is different from the scientists' research experiments. The spores cause the entire research and development process of the flexural teeth to be transferred, and the finished product will be first discussed, and then the process will be discussed.

Jeju Island is now a large-scale barracks.

Up to 20,000 members of the Panshi City Team were trained here. The classification of artillery and infantry was clear, and the former needed to receive deeper mathematical training. Thanks to the large number of priests and Tianhao's schools in the entire territory, the overall age of artillery was younger than that of infantry, which met Tianhao's requirements. After all, the role played by the middle-aged men in the infantry array is more obvious, and artillery needs calculations and more precise training.

The guards left behind in various places are mainly crossbow soldiers, and tall, powerful pig warriors with high figures and powerful kids are also equipped with long swords and heavy armor. According to the plan formulated by Tianhao, the normal rotation period is two years. In other words, at this time of the latest year, all weapons and equipment from Panshi Leader will be completely replaced, and advanced flintlock rifles and artillery will be replaced with cold weapons.

The existence of Jeju Island cannot be a secret forever. Compared with the entire northern barbarians, the rock collar of a few hundred thousand people is too small. The principle of leverage can indeed pry the earth, but Tianhao is very clear that the pole in his hand is not that long and not hard enough. It is barely feasible to pry all tribes, but he must suffer heavy casualties. Moreover, there are as many as billions of white people in the south of the mainland who are eyeing it... Instead of fighting in the internal battle and wasting resources in vain, it is better to strengthen yourself first and disclose everything to the Niu King and the Great Master at the appropriate time.

As long as there is sulfur, even if the cattle war technology lags behind the whites, they will not lose too much.

The next topic is the product.

The curved teeth brought two exquisite white porcelain plates, one filled with blocky brown sugar and the other filled with fine sand-like white sugar.

Sugarcane and beet planting has begun to take shape, especially the former, which has a considerable planting area on Jeju Island.

Tianhao asked everyone present to taste some.

"This is the most wonderful thing I have ever eaten." Tian Kuang narrowed his eyes slightly, his face full of emotion.

"...so sweet." Xu Kun's evaluation was very pertinent.

"It's delicious, very clean, and has no residue." Zhilin focuses on the taste.

The refining process of white sugar is not complicated, and the method of carbon adsorption is simpler than imagined. Looking at these subordinates who commented on sugar cubes and sugar, Tianhao couldn't help but think of the legend of making money in the civilized era... It was too luxurious to drink one bowl and pour one bowl.

"This thing can be sold at a high price." Tianfeng's attention quickly shifted to the porcelain plate containing sugar. He took the plate from Xu Kun, raised it with both hands, carefully observed the bottom of the plate, and then put it down. His fingertips rubbed back and forth on the smooth round plate wall, making a surprised voice: "It's so beautiful, I've never seen such a good pottery."

Tianhao corrected the mistake in his words: "This is not pottery, but porcelain."

"Voice?" Tianfeng was confused and his thinking could not keep up with his younger brother. For a long time, he had become accustomed to it.

"An existence more advanced than pottery." Tianhao smiled, without any secrets: "It will become one of the most valuable commodities of the Rock Corner."

Yuan Kai interrupted with a smile: "There is also wine, our wine is very good."

The cultivation area of ​​apple trees and grapes is expanding every year. In addition to the sea rice brought from Jia 43, there are almost no idle plots in the current Panshiling, and they are all used in different planting projects.

Tianhao put away the smile on his face and became formal and serious: "Tell me about potatoes! How do you feel about this new crop from the south?"

The "Viol" sent Elizabeth to the south and brought back more than half a ton of potatoes.

Judging from the data we have learned, this potato and the potatoes that the Lion tribe keeps secrets are considered brothers. They have strong environmental adaptability and do not have high requirements for soil and moisture, but there are huge differences in yield.

The potato production of white people in the south is several times higher than that of Lion potatoes, and the taste is better.

Tianhao knew that the world had changed due to the asteroid impact, and the radiation concentrations in different regions caused species to mutate. The north of Loonglong Pass was once a death zone full of radiation dust. As time passed, the deadly radiation gradually disappeared. Although some plots still spread, they were compressed into a narrow range.

The difference between potatoes between the north and the south is caused by this. Tianhao is not sure whether southern potatoes can grow in the north. However, Elizabeth and the crew of Obsidian gave him confidence that if the radiation concentration in the north of the mainland exceeds the normal tolerance limit of the human body, even if they do not die, they will suffer from severe radiation diseases. They cannot say anything about the plan to secretly implant spies among white people.

Tianfeng stood up again, he hesitated a little: "I divided the potatoes transported by the "Big Viper Snake" into two parts. For confidentiality, I did not plant them around Panshi City. Most of them were handed over to the leaders of the newly established villages below, and some were given to Quchi."

Tianhao nodded slightly: "Tell me the result, that's the point."

"...The effect is very good." Tianfeng hesitated a little, his expression was complicated, and he was a little confused: "This is the most terrifying crop I have ever seen. Acre yield... acre yield..."

There was silence in the venue, including Tianhao, and most people stared at him with confusion and inquiring eyes.

Tianfeng took a deep breath: "The yield per mu is more than 3,000 kilograms."

A scream of exclamation immediately sounded around him, and Tianhao was suddenly moved: "Three thousand? Is this number accurate?"

Tianfeng replied seriously: "From planting to weighing, all the work is arranged by me. Because it is of great importance, I dare not pretend to be someone else."

Qu Chi nodded beside him and added: "The potato yield on Jeju Island is not that high, but it is about 2,300 kilograms. To be honest, I was frightened, and I have never seen such things before. No wonder the Lion tribe hides corn and potatoes so tightly. This is indeed a good thing! We will never have to go hungry again in the future."

Tianhao's smile was a little strange: "You guys haven't eaten this thing, right?"

Qu Chi's answer was natural, and he respectfully said: "This is a treasure that you have tried every means to get back after all your efforts. Without your order, no one of us dared to move."

Tianhao was a little amused and cried, but he was more moved: "Then let someone cook a pot and everyone tastes the taste."

Poisoning does not exist. When Zhengjiang and Shuoqi transported the potatoes back, they had already eaten some at sea. They were very healthy and had no problems with their health.

This is the benefit of power. If you look or move, the people below will never dare to disobey it.

The atmosphere at the venue became warmer, people were smiling, their hearts were filled with happiness and their longing for a better future.

At this time, the gate was pushed open a crack from outside. The burly guard commander, the burly guard, walked quickly with a serious expression, and looked at Tianhao with serious expression. After being allowed by the young lord, he immediately trotted to the side of the main position on the platform, bent down, leaned close to Tianhao's ear, and said at a volume that only two people could hear: "Sir, someone from Leijiao City is coming, I said I want to see you."

"Leijiao City?" Tianhao was a little surprised. He had just separated from Liao Qiu when he came back from Lock Dragon Pass. He had not even had ten days before and after. Did something happen?

"Who wants to see me?" Tianhao asked seriously after thinking for a while.

"Commander Liao Qiu." Although the sound of the broken teeth was low, it was very clear: "He came in a hurry, with only one person around him, and even the horse ran to death."

Tianhao immediately stood up from the chair, looked cold and hurried out of the conference room.

Not far from the reception room, when Tianhao walked through the city square to the building, he saw the guards dragging a group of dead horses from the direction of the city gate. It was a strong chestnut horse with a lot of foam remaining in the mouth and nose. It had already become stiff, and his legs and feet were folded on the cart and motionless.

Walking into the reception room, Liao Qiu sat next to the table naked. He looked tired, with an empty bowl and a large teapot on the table.

Seeing Tianhao walking in from the door, Liao Qiu quickly stood up, stumbled and ran to the front, grabbed his hand tightly, and said in a hurry and panic: "...Hurry...Send troops immediately and follow me."

Tianhao raised his hand and pressed his shoulder and whispered to comfort him: "Don't panic, what's wrong?"

"Wu Yuan captured the king." A ferocious look on Liao Qiu's face, and the scars that ran across the corners of his mouth made him look like a fierce face: "He is in Chiti City. He is planning to rebel. I sent someone to dispatch troops from Heikao City and also controlled the army of Chiti City. But he is very cunning and has been hiding in the city lord's mansion and refuses to show up."

"He threatened me with the life of the king, threatening me to stop moving. As long as I ordered an attack, he would kill the king immediately." Liao Qiu nodded repeatedly, lifted Wu Yuan, and his eyes were full of hatred.
