If he could keep all the experimental data in his mind, such a super powerful brain would be a good idea. If Chen Zilong really had such ability, Liu Mingyu would have accepted it.

"Is it really done?"

Liu Mingyu looked at Chen Zilong and was slightly surprised. He raised a variety of people with rice.

Chen Zilong said excitedly: "It's done, it's done!"

"Hurry, take me to see!"

Liu Mingyu followed Chen Zilong and ran away.

The original site of the Liaodong Guns and Cannon Bureau was the former Jinzhou Acropolis. A whole acropolis could accommodate 30,000 to 40,000 people, which was larger than the Quanjia Fort in Quanjiazhuang Town.

Unfortunately, it is still not enough. The Guns and Cannon Bureau has been repeatedly expanded outward, and the original Jinzhou City has become the production factory of the Guns and Cannon Bureau's artillery, rocket launcher and musket.

As for the Guns and Cannon Bureau Gunpowder Research Institute, it is about one kilometer away from the original Jinzhou City Wall and is adjacent to the Mechanical Research Institute.

Although he lives with a neighbor from the Institute of Mechanical Research, it is actually different. Liu Mingyu was also afraid that they would cause some accidents during the research and bomb the entire Guns and Cannon Bureau arsenal.

The middle between the Mechanical Research Institute and the Gunpowder Research Institute is not a wall, but an artificial lake. Jinzhou is developing too quickly, and the business of using civil engineering kilns to burn bricks is very prosperous. This artificial lake occupies 1,400 acres, and all the soil inside is burned into bricks.

The building of the Gunpowder Research Institute is the fastest, and it is even more like a solid fortress than the Duke of Yingguo Mansion. It is a frame structure built with steel and cement to avoid collapse in explosions.

In a clean and tidy research center...

Yes, it is clean and tidy. Although Chen Zilong was extremely sloppy, the workplace was surprisingly clean and tidy. On the huge workbench, there were a large number of glassware, a variety of strange utensils, including alcohol lamps, beakers made of transparent glass, thin necks, bottles, magnifying glasses, copper tubes, iron tubes, and lead tubes. Some bottles contained alcohol, gunpowder, acid, alkali, salt, nitrate, sulfur, charcoal, flour, etc., a lot of things that could not be called, which made Liu Ming's eyelids twitch. I really wanted to ask, is it really okay to stack so many chemical raw materials together?

More than a dozen people were chattering around a fist-sized thing, needless to say, these guys are also explosives, and they have a similar smell to this pair of live treasures.

Seeing Liu Mingyu come in, Chen Zilong was furious and his saliva was almost sprayed on Liu Mingyu: "Sir, I have made the new gunpowder you want!"

"Where?"

Chen Zilong said: "It's it! We spent a lot of effort... and finally made it... we... we were doing it nonsense. We wanted to create a strong acid that could erode the city walls, but no matter how we improve it, the effect was never satisfactory! We made this thing!"

"So we tried to mix green alum oil, nitric acid, and glycerin together to see if we could make a stronger acid, and it turned out to produce a liquid that would explode!"

Liu Mingyu jumped up suddenly: "What? What do you mix together?"

"Green alum oil, nitrogen and glycerin!"

"How do you mix and process it?"

"I don't remember."

Liu Mingyu wanted to strangle Chen Zilong and the others to death: "You...how did you live until now!"

Chen Zilong didn't know how to explain it, so he swung it casually, and a small bottle flew out of the corridor on the second floor, drew an arc, and landed on the playground. Everyone saw it clearly, and Chen Zilong screamed: "It's going to explode!"

"boom!!!"

The bottle fell to the ground and shattered, and a ball of orange-red fire ball swelled out of it and rose into the air. The loud noise was like muffled thunder, shaking the glass window...

He finally made the world's first liquid explosive!

Liu Mingyu was a little excited, and he asked with a smile: "How did you get it?"

Chen Zilong said seriously: "According to the instructions of the adults, we make glue and fire cotton separately, and then mix them in proportion... It's not difficult, but the fire cotton and rubber are a bit dangerous, and they will explode if you are not careful. After putting the dry fire cotton into the rubber, as the adults said, the fire cotton melted in the rubber, and the rubber was also sucked dry by the fire cotton, and in the end it was only this one left!"

Liu Ming was beaten by this sloppy ghost and gave him a thumbs up: "No, you're doing a good job!"

Chen Zilong's face became painful: "You are polite, this is what we should do, but... is this new fire cotton glue really as powerful as you said?"

"Of course! Otherwise, why would I do it? Let me tell you, this thing is not only several times more powerful than black gunpowder, but also very safe, unlike the fire cotton that explodes at any time..."

"Safety is certain, but it seems to be safe..."

"What's the meaning?"

"We used it for an experiment yesterday, put a fuse on it and then detonated it. The fuse was burned, and it didn't react at all. Such a large piece of fire cotton glue was put down from three floors. Nothing happened. If it was black gunpowder or fire cotton, it would have exploded long ago. I still put it in the fire, and a can of alcohol was burned, but it had not exploded yet!"

After hearing this, Liu Mingyu was completely convinced: "You guys have a genital!"

Fire cotton glue is actually also yellow explosives, also called tnts, which is the safest one in the world. If you say that in a movie or TV series, you will hit a pistol or rifle and detonate the tnt, it will definitely mean that the director does not understand military affairs. Bullets can detonate black gunpowder, and there is absolutely no problem.

It can also detonate the fire cotton. As for gasoline, there is no problem, but this kind of tnt will definitely not be hit and exploded by bullets. As one of the strong explosives, tnt is actually the most stable and safest explosive.

This requires detonating with a detonator.

Chen Zilong had a headache. He wanted to create a powerful explosive that could better kill Jiannu and replace Huomian, because Huomian's explosion was greater than black gunpowder and had outstanding shortcomings.

Black gunpowder, as long as it avoids open flames and static electricity, is basically safe, but fire cotton cannot do it. It can explode with violent shaking, let alone open flames.

Of course, this insecurity is sometimes very effective.

For example, the flintlock rifle is the most troublesome problem because the fire silence rate is too high, but the problem is that the fire cotton replaced the black gunpowder, and the fire silence rate is miraculously improved. Now the flintlock rifle of the Liu family army is no longer three of the ten guns. Even if one hundred guns are fired, three of them may not be left alone.

This can basically meet the needs of the battlefield.

Liu Mingyu smiled and said, "Give me a copper tube and stuff it into the fire cotton, which is connected to this fire cotton glue!"

These craftsmen have extremely strong hands-on ability. In just a short while, they made a copper tube and stuffed it into the copper tube, which was used as a fuse and began to ignite it.

As the fire cotton burns slowly in the copper tube, when the fire cotton burns out.

Boom.

A ball of orange-red fire burst out, smoke rolled up, the ground shook violently as if it was shaking. The guys hiding in the distance to watch the fun softened their feet and turned into rolling gourds, and their ears were buzzing like they were slapped hard in the face!

Many stones were thrown up and fell like hail. Whoever hit was unlucky, but everyone had no reaction to it. Each of them turned pale, which obviously scared the loud explosion!

Not only them, but also the entire research institute was scared, and they could be seen frantically after hundreds of steps away!

Don’t blame them. Most people have never heard such a terrifying loud noise in their lives. It is normal to be scared to the point of being invisible. As the smoke filled the gunpowder, Chen Zilong jumped three feet high, danced with his hands and feet, and shouted like crazy: "I understand, I understand, hahaha, I finally understand!"

A basin of cold water was immediately handed over Chen Zilong's head. Liu Mingyu said lightly: "Although using fire cotton can detonate fire cotton glue, the problem is that it is unrealistic to use fire cotton as a fuse. It is too dangerous. It may have exploded before the shells fly out of the barrel. We can't always pick up a long fire cotton as a fuse on each shell, right?"

Chen Zilong nodded and said, "What should I do?"

"The next thing you have to do is to find a way to create a relatively safe, stable fuse that will explode when subjected to a violent collision or when encountering an open flame!"

Liu Mingyu looked at the researchers and said, "This is very important. Without it, no matter how much hot cotton glue we make, it will be useless!"

Chen Zilong widened his eyes: "How can I do this!"

Liu Mingyu shrugged and said, "I don't know, I'll see you... Come on, I'll be optimistic about you!"

Liu Mingyu knew it, but he didn't say it.

...

Western Liaoning.

Zu Dashou has been very depressed in the past few years. Chongzhen's distrust of him posed a huge blow to his prestige. In fact, this is not a big deal. As long as the Ming Dynasty still had to rely on him and rely on his army to defend the strategic location of western Liaoning, he could only turn a blind eye to his surrender. It is not easy for everyone these days, so they can't worry about so many.

The problem is that with the rise of the Liu family army and the Tianxiong army, the Ming Dynasty's dependence on Zu and his people on Guanning army was rapidly decreasing. Especially after the Battle of Guangning, despite the strong protests of the Guanning army, the Dongjiang army's military salary was increased to 300,000 taels, and the two powerful generals and the 6,000 iron hooves under their command were transferred to the pass for the Tianxiong army to drive.

This was unimaginable in the past. There has always been only the Liaoxi generals who gave the Ming court a look. When was it the Ming court's turn to yell at them?

Zu Dashou clearly felt that the Ming court's trust in him and tolerance for the Guanning Army was rapidly decreasing, but he had no choice.

The generals of the Guanning Army were indignant and threatened to create a mutiny to give the Ming court a little color.

They were very good at this, but they were stopped by Zu Dashou.

Zu Dashou realized that the balance of power between the Ming Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty was quietly changing with the unstoppable rise of the two new armies. As the Dongjiang Army regained control of North Korea, the Tianxiong Army attacked Gao Yingxiang, and this rise and fall became more and more obvious.

Gone are the good days when Guanning Army's family dominates. At this critical moment, offending the Ming court to death will not be of any benefit to Guanning Army.

If a warlord group wants to survive, it is absolutely not enough to fight alone.

You have to know how to look at the style of the world, plan and then move.

For example, Liu Mingyu, Liu Mingyu is very good at fighting, and Lu Xiangsheng is also very good at fighting.

Lu Xiangsheng and Liu Mingyu took two completely different ways. Liu Mingyu and Chongzhen became a family, while Lu Xiangsheng adhered to the duties of a minister.

In Chongzhen's mind, Liu Mingyu was his own person, while Lu Xiangsheng had some estrangement.

Lu Xiangsheng killed Gao Yingxiang in one fell swoop and captured 340,000 troops under Gao Yingxiang. These people were really not arranged by Lu Xiangsheng?

In fact, it is not necessarily true that if Chongzhen authorized Lu Xiangsheng, why could he not be able to resettle him? You should know that when the Tianxiong Army was in the army, the Mongols did not dare to look for him at all, and they would go as far as they could.

If the Great Wall Pass cannot be resettled, you can immigrate outside the Pass and use military farming to easily digest these people. The problem is that these 240,000 people are Li Zicheng's hungry soldiers.

However, hungry soldiers are also soldiers.
