Long Chen understood the shock of the empress. It was the first time they saw black gunpowder, and it was granulated black gunpowder. It was indeed very powerful.
But what Long Chen wanted was the effect of TNT, so it felt different.
Ten kilograms of black powder, but the final power did not reach ten meters, so Long Chen was naturally a little disappointed.
The empress complained: "Long Chengen, how big do you want it to be?"
Long Chen was stunned for a moment, and said seriously: "Wei Chen wants the biggest one, the bigger the better! This way...it's also good for the Holy One."
The empress sighed: "This is already very powerful. If used on the battlefield..."
The empress realized that she was teased by Long Chen in public!
Di Waner and Gongsun Linglong were still immersed in the terrifying power of black gunpowder and did not react.
The empress stared at Long Chen and gave her a death stare. Long Chen hurriedly said: "Wei Chen can think of ways to increase its power, and we will definitely create better weapons for the Holy One."
Gongsun Linglong grabbed Long Chen's clothes and said loudly: "You have to tell me how to do it safely. If such a terrifying thing explodes here, will I still be alive?"
Long Chen took Gongsun Linglong's hand away and comforted him: "I will tell you what to pay attention to. Follow what I say, it will be absolutely safe."
In front of hundreds of people, the empress couldn't help but endure it.
"Linglong, you follow Long Chengen's instructions and you can't make any mistakes."
"Also, this matter is top secret and must not be spread outside!"
"The bed crossbow and the divine arm bow were learned by Nanliang and Xixia. This thing must not be passed on to other people."
After seeing the power of black gunpowder, the empress would never allow Nanliang and Xixia to learn this thing.
"By the way, what is this thing called?"
After talking about it for so long, I still don’t know what this thing is called.
Long Chen replied: "It's called gunpowder. The poison that burns instantly when exposed to fire. When made into a weapon, it's called thunder."
The empress nodded and said: "Okay, gunpowder and thunderbolts must not be spread to outsiders!"
The empress said again, this thing is too powerful and must be kept secret.
"In addition, with such a powerful weapon, we need to form an army specifically for use. This army will become the strongest in my Zhou Dynasty! The strongest in the world!"
The empress immediately thought of the military value of gunpowder and formed such an army. The military power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty could surpass that of the Southern Liang Dynasty.
Long Chen bowed: "Wei Chen already has a plan. In fact, Hongtianlei is just a type of gunpowder weapon, and there are other weapons being manufactured."
Flintlocks and cannons are also being built in full swing, but they are not ready yet.
The empress asked in surprise: "What else? How many do you plan to do?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Wei Chen plans to form a new army of thirty thousand, with weapons including thunderbolts, flintlock guns and artillery!"
The empress couldn't understand it, but she could guess that they must be very powerful.
"Okay, you can make your own plan and I will support you."
The empress said to Gongsun Linglong: "Linglong, gather everyone together, I have something to say."
Linglong Pavilion was very important in the Great Zhou Dynasty and produced many weapons, but the Empress had never been here.
This time we are here, the empress wants to meet you all.
Gongsun Linglong immediately summoned more than 500 female workers of Linglong Pavilion.
More than five hundred female workers stood in the field, and the empress climbed onto the temporary high platform.
Almost none of these female workers had ever seen the Empress.
"Everyone, Linglong Pavilion has created many magical weapons for the Great Zhou Dynasty, which are an important part of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I went to Linglong Pavilion today and saw everyone's hardships. I would like to thank you all here."
The empress bowed her hands in a salute. Gongsun Linglong was startled and hurriedly returned the salute with her female workers.
"The work in Linglong Pavilion is very hard. I hereby announce that everyone will be promoted to the first rank and their salary will be doubled."
The empress is not a person who talks empty words. Seeing the hard work of employees, she directly promotes them and increases their salary.
Everyone was happy and worshiped together: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Gongsun Linglong bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there are some people here who were deported as slaves because of their parents' crimes. I have the courage to ask Your Majesty to have mercy on them and restore them to their status as husbands."
Some people volunteered to work in Linglong Pavilion, and many officials had their homes confiscated for committing crimes and their daughters were imprisoned here to work.
These women whose homes were confiscated became official slaves.
The empress nodded and said: "Okay, as long as you do well, it will be considered merit. If you accumulate enough, you can be exempted from slavery. You will report the list to me when the time comes."
Gongsun Linglong bowed and said: "Wei minister accepts the decree!"
The slave woman in the audience was moved to tears.
If the empress hadn't spoken out, they would have died here of old age for the rest of their lives.
"I hope everyone will continue to work hard. Every weapon you create will play a role on the battlefield, allowing the officers and soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty to bleed less and kill more enemies!"
"Please, everyone!"
The Empress bows again!
Gongsun Linglong and everyone returned the gift.
"Okay, let's get busy!"
The empress came down from the stage, and everyone went back to work.
"I'm going back first. You work hard here, especially gunpowder and Hongtianlei. Do what Long Chengen said and don't make any mistakes."
The empress saw the power of gunpowder and was worried that something might happen to Linglong Pavilion.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Wei Chen is very careful in his work."
Usually Gongsun Linglong is carefree, but when he got here he immediately became very meticulous.
"Okay, I'm going back first and will come see you later."
The empress arranged Gongsun Linglong's clothes.
"What about you? Come back with me?"
The empress turned her head and looked at Long Chen with cold eyes.
Long Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately said: "Wei Chen also needs to discuss with Linglong the matters of gunpowder purification and safe production."
The empress wanted Long Chen to go with her, but Long Chen would definitely not want to.
Just now Long Chen was mean-mouthed and teased the empress in public. If we go back together now, there will definitely be no good results.
"Okay, then you can stay here and report to me next time."
The empress is not in a hurry, leaving it to the queen to settle the accounts.
Long Chen chuckled and said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."
The empress snorted softly, led Di Waner out of the testing ground, boarded the carriage, and left Linglong Pavilion to return to the palace.
Gongsun Linglong noticed it and asked: "Why do you feel that the saint doesn't like you? What have you done?"
Long Chen coughed twice and said: "Nonsense, I made a thunderbolt, why is the Holy One unhappy?"
"Come on, let me tell you what you need to pay attention to. You can't be careless about this."
Gongsun Linglong was sweating profusely and complained: "You didn't tell me clearly that such horrible things are piled up there. If they explode, the entire Linglong Pavilion will be destroyed."
Long Chen frowned and scolded: "Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about? Don't say anything unlucky!"
When people talk about explosions in military factories, it sounds like bad luck.
Gongsun Linglong laughed and said: "I thought you were fearless, but you still have taboos."
Long Chen saw that Gongsun Linglong was too hot and asked, "Should I take off your clothes? Isn't it hot?"
After hearing this, Gongsun Linglong deliberately stood directly opposite Long Chen, then slowly untied her dress, and said coquettishly: "Dazhuguo, do I look good? Are you excited? Come and take it off for me..."
Long Chen was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you okay?"
Outside the door, the female officer walked in: "Sir... you continue..."
When the female officer saw Gongsun Linglong taking off her clothes and twisting her waist in front of Long Chen, she turned around and left in embarrassment.
Gongsun Linglong just wanted to tease Long Chen and had no other intentions. He didn't expect that his subordinates would see him.
"Ha ha..."
Long Chen laughed until his stomach hurt.
Gongsun Linglong's face turned green with embarrassment.
"Damn eunuch, stop laughing and come to work with me!"
Gongsun Linglong put on her clothes and dragged Long Chen to the workshop.
When they arrived at the workshop, Long Chen carefully explained to the female workers the things they should pay attention to, especially not to catch fire, not even sparks.
There were a lot of things to say, and Gongsun Linglong was afraid, so Long Chen kept talking until late at night before coming out of Linglong Pavilion.
