Wang Fu stood in front of a bronze mirror that was tall on one side. The bronze mirror was polished very smoothly. The figure in the mirror had neat hair, a yellow robe, and a slightly fat and tender face. He looked only less than thirty. If he hadn't had a beard, he would have been younger. Although his belly, which was originally like a ball, was still bulging, was a world of difference compared to before.

These days, Wang Fu is running and riding a horse. After months of hard training, his body has become much normal. Although he is still fat, he will not feel like a ball. He walks with a tremendous feeling, which makes Wang Fu quite proud. His roommate was also a fat man in college. He shouted to lose weight every day, but the result is that he loses weight. It seems that his perseverance is at least much stronger than his roommate.

But he didn't think that if someone would be caught and killed because of obesity, he would be caught and killed. Everyone could lose weight quickly. After deciding not to escape, Wang Fu got up early and ran no longer hard. If he hadn't been interested in riding a horse, the fat that had just been lost might have rebounded back.

"Come, bring me casual clothes."

"I obey the order!" A woman's clear voice came from outside the door. After a while, two palace maids, who were only sixteen or seventeen years old and had a beautiful and elegant face, came up with a gorgeous dress made of silk. A woman on the left whispered: "Master, the clothes are here."

Wang Fu stretched out his hand: "Change my clothes."

"Yes!" The two palace maids responded, took off Wang Fu's robe outside, and changed into the gorgeous clothes in their hands. The young man who was so noble and full of majesty in the mirror suddenly turned into an ordinary child of a wealthy businessman.

Apart from being a little uncomfortable at the beginning, Wang Fu was used to having someone to help with everything. He changed Wang Fu's clothes. Two palace maids stood beside him with their hands hanging down, a hint of blush appeared on their pretty faces. Looking at the emperor's figure, a look of conspicuous look appeared in their eyes.

The palace maid on the left is Liu, and the two names are Ziluo; the palace maid on the right is Ye, and the two names are Wuxiang, Liu, and Ye, both have only recently chosen Wang Fu's side. Since he wants someone to serve, Wang Fu naturally does not use an eunuch, and the palace maids have to choose the best. Although the two cannot be said to be one of thousands, they are also selected from thousands of palace maids. They are the best choice, at least they are much more beautiful than the school belle that Wang Fu has seen before.

Facing two cute people, it is definitely fake if Wang Fu said he was not moved, but he didn't want to act too impatiently and suppress others with power. He had no experience in dating women before, so he didn't know how to start. Although the two women were with him for more than ten days, Wang Fu never took action.

The two women were chosen to serve the emperor and were prepared to serve the bed. The emperor regarded it as nothing, which made the two of them resentful. They were both from small families, and how could they resist the temptation of wealth and prosperity in one step? The emperor became younger and younger. Even if he was a little fat, it was a common problem for wealthy families, not to mention that the emperor was even more respected.

Unfortunately, although the figures of the two people were reflected in the bronze mirror, Wang Fu could not see the changes in the faces and eyes of the two women. The bronze mirror is a bronze mirror. No matter how good it is to polish it, it is better to compare with glass mirrors. There are glass mirrors among the people. These mirrors are transported by Europeans from thousands of miles away. Glass mirrors are originally a luxury in Europe, and transported to the Ming Dynasty is even more expensive. It is not a wealthy businessman. A small mirror is worth a thousand gold. Although Wang Fu is now a lot of money, he will not use the money in this regard.

After changing his clothes, Wang Fu didn't bother to look at the two girls and came out of the hall. A group of guards outside the palace were ready to go. Tian Cheng brought the emperor a tall horse full of pure white. Wang Fu stepped on his left foot and skillfully rode his horse on the back. With a "drive." Wang Fu was riding his horse, and the guards hurriedly followed him.

The place where Wang Fu was going to be was the Military Weapon Bureau. From the first time he arrived at the Military Weapon Bureau, Wang Fu had to run to the Military Weapon Bureau almost every once in a while to prevent any deviations from the Military Weapon Bureau. With Wang Fu's guidance, and with many craftsmen with superb skills in the Military Weapon Bureau, the assembly line production quickly became pretty.

Wang Fu became more skilled in riding skills. After about half an hour, the group of people who were sweating profusely arrived at the door of the Military Weapon Bureau. The people from the Military Weapon Bureau were used to the sudden visit of the emperor. When they saw the emperor coming, they sent people to inform Song Yingxing, Chen Rui, Dai Zhongquan and others to come to greet him.

"I am here to pay homage to my emperor, long live the emperor! Long live! Long live!"

"Dear friends, please come up." Wang Fu looked at everyone with a smile. As the Military Weapon Bureau progressed smoothly, Wang Fu's mood was getting better and better. At present, the Military Weapon Bureau's flintlock rifle has reached the level of 100 per day, and with the proficiency of the craftsmen, it is expected to double by next month. In just one year, all 50,000 guards can be replaced with flintlock rifles.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Yingxing and others quickly stood up.

"How is Chen Aiqing, landmines and grenades made?"

These two things have not withdrawn from war even in the 21st century. Landmines are called weapons for the poor, and grenades are the best weapons to make up for the power of melee muskets. After the successful production of the assembly line, Wang Fu ordered Chen Rui and the craftsmen to study and improve these two weapons.

Landmines and grenades can be traced back to the Song Dynasty. It is no secret in the Ming Dynasty. The varieties of mines are already very rich. In 1413, Jiao Yu wrote a "Fire Dragon Sutra" that recorded a method of making a pressed mine. Jiao Yu named it the bomb. The "Fire Dragon Sutra" records that the bomb was cast with pig iron, empty-handed, putting medicine and pestle in a solid, entering a small bamboo tube, passing through the fire line inside, and using a long line to penetrate the fire trough. The enemy must go through dozens of times and buried it in the pit. The medicine trough was connected to the steel wheel and covered by the soil, so that the thief did not know. He stepped on the engine and shook up, and the iron block was like flying, and the flames soared into the sky.

The "Wu Beizhi" compiled and announced in the first year of Tianqi records the shapes and characteristics of more than 10 landmines and draws the structure of landmines. The materials are diverse, including stone, pottery, and iron.

The same is true for grenades. In "The General Law of Wu Jing", there are already loads of thunder fireballs, quinoa fireballs, poisonous powder fireballs, smoke balls, fireballs, etc., which can be thrown by hand. In the early Ming Dynasty, the Ming army was equipped with an explosive iron firearm, which was named Zhentian Thunder. Zhentian Thunder casts shells with pig iron, shaped like jars, bowls, etc., with gunpowder inside, leaving small holes for placing leads. After ignition, the gunpowder burns in the closed iron shell, producing high-pressure gas, causing the iron shell to explode and injure people. In addition to its power, it is almost the same as the grenades hundreds of years later.

These two weapons were originally powerful weapons to deal with cavalry, but strangely they were not used on a large scale on the battlefield in Liaodong. Wang Fu once thought that the Ming Dynasty did not have such weapons. As soon as it was proposed, several old craftsmen immediately found the physical objects in the warehouse of the Military Weapon Bureau. The variety made Wang Fu dazzled.

Just by testing the power, Wang Fu was disappointed. The mine was buried underground. When the horse stepped on it, it made a loud bang and the soil flew. It seemed to be amazing. In fact, it could only hurt the horse's legs at most, and it had no effect on the horse's knights. There were many ways to hurt the horse's legs. The cheapest way was to dig a trap and insert bamboo sticks. You could also use local materials, so why should you carry the land mine?

As for the thunderbolt fireball, quinoa fireball, and thunder, there is also a problem of power. In addition, these weapons need to be ignited before they can be thrown out. The speed is too slow. When the cavalry rushed over, even if the firearm was taken out, it may not be too late to ignite, or it may not be too late to throw it out after ignition.

At first, these two weapons were smoke and loud noises after the explosion, and there was also shock and shock to the horses. After the horses were familiar with this sound, these two weapons became useless, and they were finally able to exert any power on the battlefield in Liaodong.

Now that Wang Fu wants to exert the role of these two weapons, he must improve the two weapons. Landmines only need to increase their power. Grenades not only need to increase their power, but also need to abandon the previous ignition method and change it to the pull-line detonation of later generations.

If you want to increase the power of a weapon, one is to increase the charge amount, and the other is to improve the performance of gunpowder. The increase in charge amount of weapons seems too bulky. Only by working hard to change the performance of gunpowder, it is basically impossible to make gunpowder with greater power in the future in a short time.

Wang Fu is not an expert in explosives. He only knows the names of some explosives in later generations, and roughly knows some raw materials. For example, ** can be obtained by using concentrated sulfuric acid, concentrated nitric acid, and glycerol. It is just too dangerous. He knows nothing about the intermediate process and can only make people experiment slowly.

At present, the power of black gunpowder has not been fully exerted. At this time, ** is the long-lasting mononitrogen disulfide and three carbons, namely one pound (16 taels) of nitrate, two taels of sulfur, and three taels of carbons. In fact, the standard formula in later generations is fifteen tael sulfide and three carbons. If you change it slightly, the power can also be increased a lot.

When he heard the emperor ask about these two items, Chen Rui smiled: "Emperor, I have already made a wooden grenade."

"Hurry, show it to me." Wang Fu said impatiently.

"Your Majesty, the grenade is too dangerous, it's a bit unsuitable here." Chen Rui said in embarrassment.

"Yes, yes, then go to the school ground." Wang Fu said suddenly.

Because the Military Weapons Bureau wanted to test various weapons, the schoolyard was essential. As soon as Wang Fu and his party arrived at the schoolyard, the grenades had been sent over. When they heard that these wooden handles and iron shells were somewhat similar to the loofah, they would explode. The guards became nervous and asked people to put the things down from a distance.

Wang Fu smiled and said, "No need to do this, give me one."

A guard sent a grenade to Wang Fu in fear. Wang Fu nodded in sight. The appearance of this grenade was exactly like that of later generations, and it also saved the trouble of igniting fuses. What we need to see now is its power.

"Chen Aiqing, please find someone to try it."
