As Zhu Biao's words fell, a roar resounded throughout the world.
At the same time as the explosion sounded, countless shrapnel flew in all directions.
Those shrapnel hit the armor on the target, sending up bursts of sparks in the thick smoke.
The shock wave caused by the explosion caused Zhu Yuanzhang and others who were more than ten feet away to feel the slight tremor of the ground.
When the smoke cleared, the guards carefully approached the target.
He began to carefully examine the damage caused to those targets after the grenade exploded.
While the guards were checking, Zhu Biao also slowly put down the telescope in his hand.
"The power of this looks good, and the range of damage is also very large. If this thing is really carried by light cavalry, even if it is not used to attack the battle formation from the front, but is simply used for flank harassment, it can still cause huge casualties to the enemy. ah!"
"No, if when being chased by the enemy, it may be more effective if a group of people retreat while using this object to intercept them! Especially for cavalry horses. People can wear protective gear, but war horses do not have protective gear. "
Although Zhu Biao studied Confucianism and Taoism, as the son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the immediate emperor, how could he know nothing about the art of war?
Through the telescope given by Chu Ze, Zhu Biao witnessed almost the entire moment when the grenade exploded.
Although he couldn't see the flying shrapnel clearly because of its speed.
But he could clearly see the deep pits on those wooden targets.
This grenade is very lethal.
Whether worn by cavalry or used when defending a city.
Their effects should be very strong.
While Zhu Biao was still sighing at the power of grenades, he didn't notice at all that his father had already come to his side.
Moreover, he stared straight at the telescope held in Zhu Biao's hand.
His eyes were full of curiosity.
"Biao'er, what is this thing in your hand? The bamboo tube you use to make a fire?"
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's voice suddenly ringing in his ears, Zhu Biaoren was frightened.
After coming back to his senses, Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel a hint of complaint on his face.
"Father... why didn't you say hello first when you came here? I almost scared my son to death!"
Facing his son's complaints, Zhu Yuanzhang stood directly on the spot.
Wasn't he saying hello just now?
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was a little unresponsive for a while, Zhu Biao realized what he had just said...
After reacting, Zhu Biao quickly saluted Zhu Yuanzhang.
He said with a somewhat fearful tone.
"Father, please forgive me. I was too lost in thought just now. I didn't react for a moment and bumped into my father."
"Oh my god, why are you apologizing? It's just a little thing. We didn't say hello in advance just now. I don't blame you or you. Weren't you scared?"
Although Zhu Biao suddenly complained like this, he was a little stunned.
But after hearing Zhu Biao's apology, Lao Zhu didn't care whose fault it was, he just agreed.
After reaching out to help Zhu Biao, who was bowing and apologizing, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell on the telescope in his son's hand again.
Just now everyone thought that the grenade in this second experiment would probably not explode.
Zhu Biao took the lead in reminding everyone.
It was as if he could see the whole thing.
This naturally attracted Zhu Yuanzhang's attention.
While the guards went to check the damage and safety of the target.
He also stopped by to take a look.
Anyway, it’s just a two-step process.
"Father, this is the telescope that Chu Ze just gave to my son. This thing is mysterious. It looks like just a bamboo tube, but if it is placed in front of you, you can directly see places dozens of feet away."
"I was leaning on this thing just now and saw the fuse of the grenade being burned away bit by bit."
"Please ask Father to take a look!"
After looking at his father's eyes full of curiosity, but not knowing how to speak.
Only then did Zhu Biao realize that his father wanted to see the telescope in his hand.
After he understood it, he handed over the telescope in his hand very sensibly.
"Hey, this is what Chu Ze gave you. How could your father want it?"
After listening to Zhu Biao's introduction just now, Lao Zhu said it was impossible not to want to take a look.
With a cylinder, you can see things dozens of feet away by looking at it.
And the meaning of Zhu Biao's words should be very clear.
He, Lao Zhu, has never seen such a magical and fun rare thing.
But, after all, it is my son’s thing, so why would he be embarrassed to ask for it when he is my father?
As for bringing it over and taking a look?
Hahaha.
"It doesn't matter, Father, I will just ask Chu Ze for one later."
"Hahaha, then let's be respectful rather than obey!"
Hearing what Zhu Biao said, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately laughed, and couldn't wait to take the telescope from Zhu Biao's hand.
Then he returned to his position happily, imitating Zhu Biao's behavior just now, squinting and looking east and west with a telescope.
A look of surprise flashed across his face from time to time.
"Good guy, you are very generous. I spent several hours just polishing the lenses, and you just gave them away?"
Chu Ze, who witnessed the whole process from the sidelines, complained and handed the telescope in his hand to Zhu Biao again after he sat down.
And Zhu Biao didn't mean to refuse, he directly reached out and took it.
And he didn't forget to tease Chu Ze.
"How many hours have you spent polishing the lenses? Are you sure you didn't ask the guards or maids to polish them on your behalf?"
"Ahem... I'm not the one who participated mentally!"
Chu Ze said, and took out a smaller telescope from his sleeve.
When he saw his move, Zhu Biao was immediately speechless.
This guy made it clear that he did it on purpose.
He had prepared a lot in advance, but he refused to give it to his father. He had to let his father find out and then come to him for it.
Chu Ze probably thought from the beginning that his father would be too embarrassed to ask Chu Ze directly for it, so he had no choice but to go to Zhu Biao.
"You guys are so narrow-minded."
After Zhu Biao made a joke with Chu Ze with a smile, he was about to raise the telescope again to check the situation at the test site.
When he tilted his head, he happened to see Zhu Di sitting next to them looking at him eagerly.
"Brother."
"Okay, okay, here you go..."
Facing his brother's pitiful eyes, Zhu Biao twitched the corner of his mouth, and finally gave away the telescope he had just received.
Chu Ze, who was on the side, could not help but snicker as he looked at Zhu Biao who was finally empty-handed.
"Don't look at me! It's just three. You gave it away yourself. Don't say I didn't give it to you."
"."
When he noticed that Zhu Biao was looking at the last telescope in his hand, Chu Ze put it away without leaving any trace.
Then he directly and seriously rejected Zhu Biao's request that he had not yet made.
However, while they were talking, they discovered that Chu Ze's future father-in-law, Lan Yu, had already arrived.
"My dear nephew, can you borrow that cylinder from your father-in-law to take a look at? My father-in-law definitely doesn't want it from you, so just take a look."
When Lan Yu left with satisfaction.
Chu Ze, who was also empty-handed, could only helplessly spread his hands when faced with Zhu Biao's gloating look.
"It's all your fault for showing off when you have nothing to do. Now, we don't have anything to do anymore."
"Hahaha"
Although the telescopes in their hands were taken away, in fact, for Zhu Biao and Chu Ze, these were only secondary.
Chu Ze can recreate it himself, so this thing is not unusual.
Zhu Biao knew that Chu Ze could come up with this thing.
Therefore, sooner or later he will still have it.
Now...
Just let his father and brother play with it first, since he had already experienced it just now.
After a while of fun, the guards who went to inspect the experimental site also moved all the targets that had been exposed to the brilliance.
At the same time, the third experiment is also being prepared.
Looking at the scarred targets, Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel a little more confused.
Why are the gunpowder brought from the Shenji Camp used, and the shell of the grenade is also made from the craftsmanship of the Shenji Camp.
Why didn't the previous grenade explode?
Chu Ze just changed the shape of the gunpowder and didn't add anything new.
Why is there such a big difference before and after the two experiments?
"How is it? Are you confused now? Why do the same things have different results?"
At this time, Chu Ze seemed to have the ability to read minds. Looking at Zhu Biao's frown, he directly expressed the confusion in the other person's heart.
"It's true. Why don't you explain it? Of course, try to use it in a way that I can understand."
After getting along with each other for this period of time, Zhu Biao also realized something.
Many vocabulary words of later generations seem to be very professional.
At least, it touches the blind spots they can understand.
"The general principle is that the combustion of gunpowder actually relies mainly on air. That is, the air we inhale into our stomachs when we breathe. It is invisible, but it is real."
"The reason why grenades filled with powdered gunpowder did not explode is mainly because the powdered gunpowder particles are too small and leave insufficient gaps between each other. After filling the grenades, there is a lack of air, which affects the combustion of the gunpowder. speed."
"The reason why the grenade explodes is because the moment the gunpowder burns, it releases a large amount of energy and gas, which is equivalent to directly bursting the shell."
"After the granular gunpowder is filled, there is more air inside the grenade, so it will burn faster and be more powerful."
As soon as Chu Ze finished speaking, another roar spread out from the testing ground in the distance.
However, this time, both the sound and the trembling sensation on the ground were almost twice as loud as the previous one.
The sudden roar made Chu Ze and others feel their ears ringing.
"As for this time, with the same materials and the same amount of gunpowder, why is the power so amazing? It's mainly because of the addition of sugar."
"When sugar and nitrate in gunpowder meet, a large amount of gas will be released, which will further accelerate the burning speed of gunpowder and the power of the explosion."
"This is one of the things we will learn in future generations."
"We call him Chemistry!"
After the roar passed, Chu Ze looked at Zhu Biao who was already a little stunned. Before he could ask, Chu Ze gave an explanation first.
The late night chapter is ready. Isn’t it too much for the author to ask for a monthly pass?
