Developing hand grenades

  Shang Wen himself repeatedly tested his lighter and was basically satisfied. After pulling it 100 times, there were three times when it didn't ignite. This ratio is considered very high in the future. But for now, it's already quite good.

  What needs to be done now is how to make the hand grenade's sealing and manufacturing process better.

  With this intention, Shang Wen directly took the lighter in his hand and returned to his own tent, without seeing anyone around him.

  Meng Hu saw Shang Wen like this, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "This is the way of a gentleman." The people around him also couldn't help but laugh. However, everyone was still gathered around the forged swords.

  "General." This is the stirrup and horseshoe that Mr. made me forge. An ironworker respectfully pointed to a row of small iron tools beside the furnace.

  Meng Cong followed the blacksmith's direction and saw a row of ring-shaped objects, but he didn't know how to use them. So he asked: "Sir, do you have any other instructions?"

  "The master has already instructed me. Just install according to this diagram." The blacksmith held up a piece of sheepskin with both hands.

  Meng Zhuang took over the sheepskin and looked at it for a moment. He didn't understand either. Then he handed it over to the blacksmith to prepare.

  Time flies. Night has fallen.

  After dinner, Meng Huo came again to the armory.

  This time Meng Huo saw a special horse, with stirrups and horseshoes installed.

  Meng Wu rode over and mounted the horse. His feet stepped on the two stirrups, his legs not holding onto the horse's sides. He felt a surge of power throughout his body, without worrying about anything else. Meng Wu rode the horse around in circles twice, then loudly said: "Good, good! With such a fine warhorse, we needn't fear Li Mu's border army. The brave warriors of Qin can use their swords and spears to pierce through the Zhao people!"

  The people around all showed a happy expression. Meng Huo's subordinates were all eager to try, rubbing their fists and wiping their palms.

  Meng Huo dismounted his horse and let his subordinates ride on the warhorse to try it out.

  Looking at the war horses running quickly. Not a single shake under his command. Riding very steadily. Meng Huo was extremely delighted in his heart.

  Returned to the crowd below to prepare for an exchange of ideas. Suddenly, a loud "boom" sound. Although much smaller than the previous explosive package, it was still startling in the quiet night.

  Meng Hu's subordinates thought that Shang Wen had a new weapon again. This time it must be something like the Thunder God.

  The people in the Blue Field camp had never seen anything like it before and thought it was thunder. But it didn't sound quite right either.

  Meng Cong looked at everyone and said: "Let's go, let's take a look together at what good things Mr. has researched."

  The crowd began walking in the direction of where the sound came from.

  The sound of drums was heard continuously on the road, and some disturbance began in the camp.

  Soon, two miles outside the main camp, only Meng Tian and Shang Wen were seen lying on the ground. Shang Wen's face was serious, but a hint of excitement could be seen in his eyes. Meng Tian, on the other hand, seemed somewhat excited. The soldiers beside them kept throwing out wooden handles with black cylindrical objects attached to them.

  After throwing it out, a huge sound rang out. Meng Tian saw his father arrive and ordered the soldiers below to stop throwing projectiles.

  "Sir, what is this? Is it a bomb?"

  Shang Wenli immediately picked up the topic and replied.

  "Marshal Meng, this is a hand grenade. It can be thrown directly to kill the enemy, you see. Underneath the wooden handle there is a string. You pull it and throw it."

  It will explode. The black thing on top is iron. Inside, there is black gunpowder. This iron cap can be blasted into seven or eight pieces. These exploded iron fragments can

  Fly out and kill the enemy.

  Meng Huo pointed with his finger at the hand grenade and said: "It's this one."

  "Hand grenade." Meng Tian's timely supplement.

  "Hand grenade. It's so easy to injure the enemy." Meng Huo asked with some skepticism.

  "Let's give it a try." Shang Wen said seriously.

  "I'm here." The crowd looked back at the sound and immediately knelt on the ground. In unison, they said: "Your humble servant (grass citizen) pays respects to Your Majesty". Shang Wen

  Also unclearly knelt down, but didn't know how to address oneself, and just muddled through.

  "Get up, everyone."

  "This is a hand grenade." A robust man with a full beard and dressed in finery said. Shang Wen was carefully sizing up this robust man. Meng Tian

  He elbowed Shang Wen slightly. Shang Wen came back to himself and said, "Yes."

  It seems that this person is indeed Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng. It seems that the history books exaggerated a bit. This man is in his thirties, but has a somewhat overbearing temperament.

  The voice was chilling. Shang Wen said in his heart.

  "Is this thing used like that?" Suddenly, the King of Qin pulled the fuse. Everyone panicked at once. Meng Wu and Meng Tian were even more frightened.

  At a loss for what to do, while Zhao Gao beside him was unable to shout out loud, stretching out his hand wanting to pull back the Qin Emperor.

  King Qin Ying Zheng casually threw it with one hand. This time, it was about 40 to 50 meters away. As soon as the grenade landed, it exploded with a loud "boom".

  。

  "Good, good, good!" King Qin exclaimed three goods. The crowd finally felt at ease. Especially Meng Wu and Meng Tian finally let out a breath. Shang Wen this...

  At that time, looking at everything. In his heart, he couldn't help but agree, Qin Shi Huang was indeed Qin Shi Huang, and he was really bold. As soon as he came to power, he dared to do so. Not surprised at all.

  Color. Not simple, huh.

  The King of Qin turned his head and asked: "Is there any more? I want to throw a few more."

  "Reporting to Your Majesty, this is the last one." Meng Tian said with his hands clasped together in a fist.

  "What a pity. I have not had enough fun yet." The King of Qin said with his back to the crowd.

  The king of Qin was so frightened by this sentence that everyone present did not dare to take it lightly. It turned out that the other party had been playing with firecrackers all along.

  The King of Qin turned around and stared at Shang Wen. Shang Wen felt a bit hairy being stared at by the King of Qin, feeling uncomfortable all over his body. This is what it means to be domineering, Shang Wen thought to himself.

  "You are that weapon expert, Qin Shangwen. Mr. Qin." King Qin said.

  "Yes," Shang Wen replied.

  "Our humble self was on the way here when we heard the sound of hand grenades, which startled our horse. Our humble self thought it was thunder in the sky. But the stars are all up there. Where did the thunder come from? It turns out that the gentleman had invited the Thunder God." The King of Qin said with a smile.

  A joke, relieved the solemn atmosphere of Qin Wang's arrival. Shang Wen secretly admired him. What a great talent and strategist this Qin Shi Huang is! His methods are high. A joke that relieves the atmosphere around him, and he doesn't forget to praise me either. Not bad, being able to get praised by Qin Shi Huang. I am also the number one person of modern times.

  "Your Majesty is joking. This is just a small trick."

  Shang Wen hastily replied.

  The King of Qin continued to wave his hand and said: "I don't think so. I think this is a sharp weapon for my great Qin. With this, we will speed up our pace to unify the world!" The King of Qin continued: "This time our army suffered heavy losses, but I got a great talent. I am very happy about that."

  The King of Qin said this. Meng Wu and Meng Tian's faces showed joy. Then Meng Wu stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Qin still has some inventions that have not been demonstrated, these things are very useful for our army to deal with Li Mu's border army next step, and our Great Qin can also build a truly meaningful cavalry."

  "Oh, no, hurry and take me there." The King of Qin said urgently.

  "This way, Your Majesty."
