What Jiangxia alone can buy is not even a fraction.

At this moment, Guan Lin was touching this earthen jar of similar size with his hand, feeling the touch inside.

But the more I touch it, I can't help but feel a little disappointed.

——"Compared with the earthen jars of later generations, it is too soft...but as an incendiary bomb...ah no, it is a projectile, it should be enough."

Just as Guan Lin thought, the earthen pots during the Three Kingdoms period were all gray pottery with low fire intensity and soft texture, which was significantly different from the practical hard pottery of the previous generation...

Of course, even if it is gray pottery... it is still possible to store some objects, powders, etc.

etc…

Guan Lin suddenly realized something. These neat pottery pots that were extremely difficult to collect all appeared...

But what about that stuff?

Where is Jiang Gan?

Guan Lin pondered.

——"Didn't Jiang Gan lead a team of migrant workers up the mountain to dig out the "fire sickle"?"

——"Why is it that it's been almost a month and there's no news?"

——"What about people? Are they working hard but not doing their best?"

Indeed, after Guan Lin arrived in Anlu City, in addition to non-stop preparations for the battle, he also did one thing, three things to be precise.

Each of the original Jiang Gan, Wang Can, and Ruan Yu arranged something.

Wang Can’s job is to write a “little book”!

Ruan Yu's thing is to arrange a "little show"!

Jiang Qian, this figure who has been blackmailed for thousands of years by the textbook "Jiang Qian Stealing Books" for thousands of years, Guan Lin thought about it. He was the head of Anlu County, so he was relatively familiar with this place. In addition, it was recorded in ancient books and documents.

Somewhat capable...

Therefore... Guan Lin specially entrusted him with important tasks.

As for this important task!

Anlu City, as the "great sense of filial piety" for later generations, is very familiar to Guan Lin.

In addition to knowing that this is the "hometown of Chinese filial piety culture" and that there are "four great monsters" here, Guan Lin also knows that Xiaogan is also the "Glazed Capital", "Salt Sea", "Phosphorus Mountain"...containing rich geological resources

mineral.

Of course, we are now in a wartime state...

To refine the ointment and salt...there seems to be no time.

Similarly, although ointment and salt are important, they pale in comparison to "phosphorus".

Mention Lin…

What Guan Lin immediately thought of was the white phosphorus bomb in later wars, which burned skin and corroded bones, and was known as the "fire of hell". It was the most terrifying and lethal weapon in war.

certainly…

It is too difficult for Guan Lin to make missiles, so he can use the ignition point of white phosphorus, supplemented by oil.

All it takes is a fire...it can burn tens of thousands of enemy troops to death overnight!

This is much simpler than making artillery.

This is also the prototype of the "Incendiary Bomb" in Guan Lin's mind...

Compared with Qin Nu's slow molding, this "incendiary bomb" only requires a sufficient amount of white phosphorus to be realized.

Therefore, what Guan Lin sent Jiang Qian to do was to search for white phosphorus... No, the name of white phosphorus during this period was - flint, fire sickle!

You know, flint and fire sickle are extremely precious fuels in this era.

As long as there are sufficient reserves of fire stones and fire sickles, Cao Cao would not fail to set off fire arrows when borrowing arrows from a straw boat.

As for... Anlu County, which is known as "Phosphorus Mountain", Guan Lin does not remember the specific distribution of white phosphorus so clearly. He only has some impressions that in later generations... it was in Sifang Mountain, Xiaowu Township.

Coincidentally, in this era... there is really a Sifang Mountain near Anlu City.

Guan Lin simply asked Jiang Qian to go to Sifang Mountain to search and dig out the flint and fire sickle!

But it has been almost a month, and Guan Lin heard that Jiang Qian was not lazy either. He took these people out in the morning and came back in the evening, but... there was a hairy flint.

Guan Lin already felt a bit unreasonable and inhumane.

Zhang Xingcai was very curious and was looking at these pots with great interest at the moment, "Brother Yun Qi? What are you doing with so many pots? Can this help you burn the food and grass in Jiming Mountain?"

"If someone is a little more reliable, he will be burned if he doesn't protect everything..." Guan Lin opened his mouth helplessly.

"Someone?" Zhang Xingcai was curious and quickly asked, "Who is it?"

Guan Lin did not answer directly, but instead ordered the soldiers and warriors on the side, "Uncle Shi, if Jiang Gan still finds nothing tonight, he will have to work hard to dig down the Sifang Mountain!"

"I don't have anything else, but I still have some strength..." Shiwu patted his chest, "Leave it to me, Master Yun Qi, just rest assured!"

Seeing Shi Wu's serious look, Guan Lin felt only two words - reliable!

As soon as I finished speaking...

"Report——" A soldier rushed in and quickly reported: "Mr. Jiang Qian asked the prefect to go to the east city gate... He said that he found what the prefect asked him to find and brought it back!"

"Found it?" Guan Lin was startled...

His eyes swept across the clay pots in front of him again. If the clay pots now are docile quails, then with white phosphorus, these clay pots are ferocious tigers, and they have to be the ones with wings. kind!

"If we can really use incendiary bombs these days, then let's give Cao Cao another fire——"

With this in mind... Guan Lin's impatience is ready to come out.

"Lead the way from the front——"

…

…

——The deer roars, eating the apples of the wild. I have a guest, who plays the harp and the sheng.

The harp and harp play in harmony, and the music played is "Deer Ming" from the "Xiao Ya" chapter in the Book of Songs.

This piece of music plays a Confucian flavor with a strong Jiaozhou flavor, which makes people think that Xie, the governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou, is also a master of Confucianism.

"Have friends come from afar--"

As Sima Yi, holding a staff in one hand and a book in the other, walked into the main hall of the government office in Guangxin City, the officials opened their mouths to welcome him.

Sima Yi bowed and saluted, "I, Sima Yi, are marching to the Wei Kingdom. On the orders of Duke Wei, I pay my respects to General Anyuan and Marquis Longdu Ting!"

Shi Xie smiled and said: "Thirteen years before Jian'an, Wei Gong sent envoys to Jiaozhou many times. I have been yearning for Wei Gong's grace for a long time. But in the thirteenth year of Jian'an, a fire in Chibi wiped out Wei Gong's desire to go south. It is a pity that I can't open up the main road between the Central Plains and Jiaozhou!"

This cannot be said to be a mockery, but it pointed out the scars of Cao Wei. Sima Yi said calmly: "Wei Gong knows that the general's heart is sincere to the Han Dynasty, and Xu Du is the orthodox Han Dynasty, so Wei Gong sent his ministers to deliver the emperor's canonization imperial decree.

The emperor conferred the title of General of Hussars on the general, led him to be the governor of the state, and sealed him as the marquis of the south, so as to fight against the rebellion together. Please ask the general to prepare the incense case to receive the order!"

Shi Xie was startled. Unexpectedly, Sima Yi brought the imperial edict from the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. He was hesitating how to answer. Liu Xi, who was standing in the first place, handed over his hand and said, "I Liu Xi, a native of Beihai County, fled to Jiaozhou. I dare to ask, this imperial edict."

, was it written by the Emperor? Or by Duke Wei?"

Sima Yi smiled and said, "Since it is an imperial edict, it is naturally written by the emperor."

Liu Xi sneered, "Everyone in the world knows that Wei Gong coerced the emperor to order the princes. Although Jiaozhou is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, this saying is still quite popular. Could it be that... the emperor was imprisoned in Xudu by Wei Gong? This

It’s okay if my lord doesn’t accept the imperial edict!”

Sima Yi was still smiling, "In the past, the emperor was exiled, the heroes stood idle, and the Han Dynasty was almost destroyed. It was Wei Gong who welcomed the emperor to respect him and built a palace to honor him. However, Wei Gong personally risked his own life, attacked the rebels, and appeased the princes. Today's Central Plains... is not Wei.

Lord, where did the emperor come from? Not the emperor? Why the world? And how did he come to confer the title of governor of the seven counties of Jiaozhou? Where did the current General Anyuan and Marquis Longduting come from? Mr. Liu mentioned the word "imprisonment", which is shocking. I don't know the reason for the suffering of the emperor.

Where was Mr. Liu at that time? Oh, by the way, Mr. Liu was avoiding trouble in Jiaozhou... In that case, why did Mr. Liu use his own disloyalty to trap Wei Gong for his own disloyalty?"

It was the first time that Zhang Chunhua heard her husband talk in front of so many people, and she couldn't help but smile.

Liu Xi said anxiously and angrily: "I'm only talking about today's affairs. Who can tell you about your courage in the past?"

Sima Yi laughed: "General Anyuan has grown from a prefect of Jiaozhi to the governor of seven counties in Jiaozhou. Hundreds of scholars from the Central Plains have gone to seek refuge. The names I can name include Yuan Hui, Xu Jing, and Liu

Ba, Cheng Bing, Xue Zong...and Mr. Liu! Isn't it because these people took refuge in General Shixie because of General Shixie's loyalty to the emperor? Isn't it because General Shixie has been canonized by the imperial court repeatedly because of his loyalty to the emperor? Now that the imperial edict has been issued,

What's wrong with begging for thieves for the Han Dynasty?"

Liu Xi still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Shi Xie, "You want me to beg a thief? I don't know who the thief is?"

Sima Yi said calmly, "Guan Yu! Sun Quan!"

"Hahaha…"

This time Liu Xi laughed loudly again, "Guan Yu is the Shouting Marquis of the Han Dynasty personally appointed by the Emperor, and Sun Quan is Jiangdong under the Three Generations Foundation. He is also the general who suppresses the captives and the prefect of Kuaiji... How can there be any reason for Jiaozhou to attack the Han officials?

?”

"Those who follow the emperor's orders are loyal, and those who disobey the emperor's orders are traitors. General Shixie and Mr. Liu know better than me who is loyal and who is traitorous. What's more, Jiaozhou is a remote place. I can't bear to let Jiaozhou get involved in the battlefield, but it is

I heard that Lu Xun and his people were framed by Wu Hou and almost lost their heads. Instead of aimlessly attacking Soochow in the north and being threatened by Sun Quan and the Lu family, why not come with me back to Jingzhou and attack Jingzhou from the bottom of the cauldron! Wei Gong wants to open up a way to the Central Plains.
