The emergence of gunpowder has been around for a long time. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, people had already made gunpowder in the hands of alchemists.

However, at the beginning of gunpowder, it was a medicine to treat various diseases such as stomach pain, scabies, and unknown swelling and pain.

The term gunpowder first appeared in the "Martial Jing Zongyao" compiled by Zeng Gongshun during the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song Dynasty. The term gunpowder appeared for the first time, and the formula of three types of military gunpowder was publicly recorded.

Unfortunately, this did not attract the attention of most people.

Chen Gui's method was to burn gunpowder by Emperor Renzong of Song called the method of sulphur in the fire.

The method is to burn two taels of sulfur, two taels of saltpeter, and three soap horns together. After the soap horn is burned, add three pieces of charcoal, fry and make it, and it is officially released.

In fact, the invention of gunpowder began in the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Jin Dynasty, gunpowder had already been used on a large scale. By the prosperous Tang Dynasty, gunpowder had been mastered by almost most alchemists.

And an industrial chain has been formed among the people, and the fireworks in Bianjing are extremely dazzling.

However, these three gunpowder formulas were not officially taken seriously until the Jin Dynasty invented the iron cannon.

It turns out that gunpowder can still be played like this.

Taoist alchemy led to the invention of gunpowder. Of course, Taoist alchemy masters refining alchemy for immortality. Therefore, the military use of this gunpowder has never been paid attention to.

Taoism has a wide influence on folk sacrifices, talismans and social customs.

Zhao Huan once saw a saying that people often hate monks, nuns, Muslims, and Jesuits, but not Taoists. Those who understand this principle understand most of China.

Therefore, gunpowder has been moving forward with China's progress and has not stopped.

What are the main gunpowder used in the Song Dynasty?

It is used in acrobatics in the military circus, as well as the fireworks acrobatics in the puppet show - the medicine-fast puppet. This is the main purpose of gunpowder.

Acrobatic programs such as "Holding Gong", "Hard Ghost", and "Dumb Art Drama" all use the newly emerging gunpowder products "fire war" and "spout fire" to create a mysterious atmosphere.

The Song people also used gunpowder to perform illusions, such as spraying fireworks, clouds and mist to escape people, transform objects, etc., to achieve magical and confusing effects.

The great change of living people occurred in the Song Dynasty, but unfortunately, gunpowder has been overwhelmed in military use.

The old gunpowder has been further modified based on the fire-sulphur method and further improved the formula.

No technology can be achieved overnight, even Newton needs to stand on the shoulders of giants.

And because of this, Zhao Huan cannot use the tnt production method and use it directly.

After all, if you don’t go to class, don’t you still have to take the make-up exam?

Of course, as far as high-level mathematics is concerned, if you go to class and listen carefully, you may not need to take a make-up exam.

Just like high-level numbers, making gunpowder has a great relationship with personal qualifications.

Therefore, Zhao Huan had to find someone and find the foundation of the gunpowder in the Song Dynasty in order to further enhance the power of the gunpowder.

Only by building a house on the foundation can the house be built higher.

"You are exploring your own gunpowder?" Zhao Huan asked with the gunpowder in his hand.

This kind of gunpowder obviously cannot be used as fire medicine for muskets, but it is obviously not enough to make explosive packs of gunpowder.

"The official family, the original Guangbei attacking city, had seven thousand crossbows, gunpowder arrows, ten thousand bows, 3,000 thorns, and 20,000 skin artillery. Then the Supreme Emperor issued an order to supervise the construction of the army, and stopped the gunpowder work." Li Gang said in a low voice, reminding the official family of gunpowder production.

Zhao Huan did not blame Song Huizong Zhao Ji for his decision, because if it were Zhao Huan, he would have stopped this unreliable gunpowder.

The terrestrial cannon is not a cannon. Like the explosive pack that Zhao Huan was preparing to make, it is a gunpowder pack containing barbed iron sheets. [Note 1]

But all of this depends on the quality of gunpowder. For example, more than half of the gunpowder in front of him are silent. Isn’t it a joke to go to the battlefield?

Relying on the Jin people as mentally retarded as the bandits? Frightened by the sounds and firelights of gunpowder?

"I'm looking for it. When the young master left last time, I wrote a note that he had improved gunpowder. Where did it come from? Here!" Zhao Huan searched in his wide sleeves for a long time and took out a note.

In fact, he is just changing the manufacturing process and process of black gunpowder.

The remaining ones how to kill the enemy more effectively are the issues that Liu Yi, Su Xie and Chen Gui should consider.

Of course, looking at the information about the thorn cannon, Zhao Huan also believed that the Song people would not disappoint themselves, they just lacked high-quality gunpowder.

"I have considered this? It's true that the young insurance company is a young insurance company!" Li Gang said with a frown.

Zhao Huan had a smile on his face. Of course, this was not written by Master Zhong, but was exchanged from the system's Achievement Points Mall.

Of course, it is not as simple as memorizing formulas like 100,000 sulfhydryl 3 charcoal. You can say it, how to do it?

How to deal with it and to what extent? All require strict regulations!

"A Preliminary Exploration of Brown Gunpowder" is a note taken by Zhao Huan. He handed it to Chen Gui. The method was not long and was even almost the same as Chen Gui's operation, but the specific process was standardized.

In fact, this is originally named "Hexagonal Seven-hole Maroon Gunpowder Forming Technology 1".

Chen Gui took it and looked at it, and the surprise in his eyes became heavier and he said, "Officials, wait for a moment, and I will come."

Compared with the old rough work, rough materials and rough tools, Zhao Huan gave more techniques such as nitride, sulfonation, milling, pressing, granulation, and drying.

Zhao Huan did not wait for a moment, but followed Chen Gui into the gunpowder.

Liu Chai was pre-treated.

After removing the slurry and de-stitching, fumigation for a whole day, and after taking it out, the sintered scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled scrambled

Chen Gui took out the stone mill, put the prepared Liu Chai into the stone mill, and grind it into powder.

Start to process saltpeter and sulfur. After drying and mixing, start mixing the ingredients. After precisely weighing the saltpeter, 10 taels of sulfur, and 15 taels of charcoal, and grinding them again.

It is the formula of 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 2, 2.

"Official family, do you need to add water here?" Chen Gui suddenly stopped and looked at "A Preliminary Exploration" and asked.

Washing gunpowder? Can it still be like this? Chen Gui looked at this step and had some questions.

Zhao Huan nodded and gave Chen Gui a positive answer. He wrote it in the letter. If you want to figure out what happened, you have to rely on Chen Gui to understand it yourself.

Chen Gui started to mix medicine and water continuously, wash the mixture in water, and the dark brown medicine in his hand turned into particles.

After that, Chen Gui did not stop, but took out the sieve, adjusted the size of the holes in the sieve, and removed the powder.

"Graphite powder! Help me get fifty taels of graphite powder!" Chen Gui shouted loudly, and someone soon took the graphite over, and the graphite powder was about to be polished.

When the medicine was pressed, the medicine finally turned into a medicine cake about one inch thick, one inch wide, and one tael, two cents heavy.

At this time, Chen Gui did not stop, but took out the weighing and started weighing. Any medicine cake that did not meet the requirements would be discarded. The weight was wrong, which proved that the material was incorrect.

In the end, Chen Gui got 50 yuan of medicine cakes. He carefully held the medicine cakes and put them in the baking pharmacy, and said with a bright look: "Official family, it will definitely work this time!"

"Chen Shaoqing, the proportions of saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal can be constantly changed, and other categories of gunpowder can be obtained. If you try more, you will find new discoveries." Zhao Huan said with a smile.

This is just a preliminary investigation. The gunpowder made is just a bomb for the terrestrial cannon. Each medicine cake will have iron slices inserted. When it is detonated, the iron slices will be everywhere. The scene should not be too beautiful.

Zhao Huan looked at the musket in the corner and said, "Zhong Shaobao once said that 80 taels of salt, 4 taels of sulfur, and 16 taels of charcoal can get gunpowder, and the color and chestnut taste bitter. Chen Shaoqing can try it."
