The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 616: Black powder leaked

"What happened?" a navy lieutenant asked a sailor. This sailor was a survivor who was rescued after being sunk by the destroyer.

"I don't know. I don't know anything." The sailor turned pale. Said while shaking his head.

The lieutenant frowned. The matter was far more serious than he imagined Shangwen.

"Relax. Look into my eyes. Relax." The lieutenant patted his shoulder and said.

"Sergeant. Bring me a cup of hot water." The lieutenant ordered.

"Okay, sir." The sergeant left. The military doctor on the side wiped the wounds of the sailors. A wooden thorn was inserted into the wound. This was blown in after the explosion. From the depth, you can see what happened at that time. Burn the wound. The lieutenant looked at everything in front of him unbelievably.

The initial report revealed a general fact after treating the wounded soldiers. At that time, a small ship of the Chu army approached the Qin destroyer Zuo Xuan at a rapid speed. Then the crew dived. Then there was a huge explosion. A big hole was exploded in the whole ship. Then came a series of explosions.

explosion? Why is there an explosion. The chief officer of the Qin naval base did not understand why the explosion occurred. Could it be the black powder exported by Qin State? The navy chief analyzed that.

The fact is that after a long period of configuration, Chu finally figured out the secret formula of black powder. The reason why the secret recipe can be figured out is because Qin has figured it out from the raw materials imported.

Qin had imported a large amount of sulphur and sulphur when he used black powder. These two products are basically defensive weapons. Mainly used for city defense. For Qin, which has always been aggressively offensive, it is not necessary at all. This is very strange.

Afterwards, Qin State, which began to export gunpowder weapons on a large scale, allowed Chu State to temporarily focus on changing weapons. However, Qin's export of gunpowder is really outrageous. The price of the gun can be very cheap. But the price of gunpowder is surprisingly expensive. A bucket of black powder costs as much as a gold. And the army had to use it after the change. This extortion-style trading led Chu people to study the main ingredients of black powder on their own.

Qin imported more and more things. Various non-ferrous metal mines. There is also fire glass. sulfur. Judging from the smoke after burning. There are basically two substances. Sulfur and fire nitrate. Because the irritation of sulfur cannot be concealed. Then it is to configure Huo Ni. The two basically smell like ignition powder. But there is one thing missing. That's why the color of black powder is black. And this kind of Chu State's own configuration is white.

Chu's meticulous work provides a humble message. Qin State once burned charcoal regardless of winter and summer. This is strange. Charcoal is only needed in winter. Why do you need it in summer. In this way. It exposes the third substance, charcoal.

This is the case of tentativeness. Black powder was developed by the State of Chu. The amount of black powder exported by Qin State began to decrease. But still maintain a certain amount. Although Qin Guo made tricks when making black powder. But the ratio is higher than that of the black powder that Chu has just developed. Especially the fire glass. Basically reached 60%. The black powder of Chu State has been burning at about 50%. The power gap between the two is obvious.

No matter how big the power gap is, it cannot explain the fact that Chu State already possesses black powder. After mastering the black powder technology, Chu Jun immediately launched a series of experiments. For example, this is the case of the attack on the destroyer of the State of Qin.

Chu State installed about ten stones of black powder on a small boat. Fast sails were added to the boat. This operator is a sailor with excellent water quality. They lit black powder as they approached the target location. Then dive to escape. The remaining time period is just close.

This kind of boat is equipped with ten stone black gunpowder. This is equivalent to a small torpedo. Powerful. For the destroyer, if it hits directly. Can directly break the destroyer in half. Judging from the survivors on the spot. It should have exploded early before sinking the Qin Navy’s destroyer directly. However, the explosion triggered a second explosion of the Qin destroyer. The ammunition inside the destroyer was detonated one after another. A series of explosions directly led to the sinking of the ship.

But there is one thing I don't understand. What purpose did Chu's naval forces openly attack Qin's naval ships? This may lead to the outbreak of two wars. Is it possible that Chu's naval forces are prepared to win this surface war.

There is also the Qin State Navy who has the same idea. They think the other side is at war. Qin's navy will directly fire on Chu's navy.

The sinking of the destroyer was reported by both parties at the same time. The two countries, the sea and the armed forces, can proceed to the next step as long as they make further moves above. Whether the situation has expanded or just silenced. It depends on the attitude of the two parties.

And in the Western Regions. The war is ready to start. The Qin Air Force continuously dispatched airships for photo reconnaissance. The appearance of the airship greatly increased the morale of the encircled Qin army. They chanted the slogan Long live Qin Jun.

The Western Region coalition forces were panicked for a while. Morale fell sharply. This reconnaissance requires a hundred miles deep behind the opponent. Then look for a suitable landing place in the photo.

The Allied Forces of the Western Regions were very helpless against Qin's airship. Their bows and arrows cannot shoot down the airships high above them. Can only send cavalry to follow. Even so, what about the airships in the sky?

Qin Jun’s reconnaissance airship not only needs to take pictures of the ground. It is also necessary to measure the weather conditions. The plan can't keep up with the changes. Airborne assault operations require good weather. Airborne if there is no good weather. Undoubtedly, the airborne troops were sent to death.

The weather forecast is also intensively collecting various meteorological data. The airborne troops have assembled and are ready to attack. The final offensive moment is coming.

The airship has been assembled. The airborne troops will conduct operations in accordance with the original plan. Temporary maps will show the worst plans that can be encountered in airborne operations. And they need to study it before attacking.

"At the beginning of the battle. A company will airborne on our left. We will form the first defensive line with the company. Defend against possible attacks from all quarters." An airborne major introduced to the two Qin Army airborne units they would be The first troops to land.

"What's the matter?" The major saw an ensign raise his hand.

"How do we know that we are just airborne within the originally planned area. Sir." The second lieutenant suggested.

"Your question is very good. What I want to say is. Someone will give us directions." The major said firmly.

"Okay!" said the ensign. In fact, this time Qin State dispatched the first special assault force. They will penetrate from the front of the enemy. Go to the enemy's rear to pick up the airborne assault troops. Guiding landmarks is also one of their tasks.
