"This... what is this? Are there large fireworks? Are you not afraid of explosions?" Fu Qing held the roll of paper in his hand and flipped it back and forth.

"Sir, be careful, don't break the wax seal. There is a yellow phosphorus coating on the nozzle, just wipe it..."

"This is called a burning rod, and we also call it a lighting rod. They are all disposable items, new things... the outer skin is like a thick paper roll and it is like a large firecracker. If it is burned, it will be thrown away..."

"Depending on the task, the flames emitted are different in color, including white, red, orange, etc...."

"But this thing is not a firework. It seems to be something made by those chemists. We can't name the stuff stuffed inside!"

The principle of combustion rod is extremely simple. This is actually the industrial product born after the emergence of the chemical industry!

The paper rolls contain flammable chemicals, such as potassium nitrate, potassium perchlorate and other strange chemicals. Chemistry is an emerging industry that has had a profound impact on mankind after the Second Industrial Revolution.

Europeans are also feeling the stones across the river, but Chinese researchers can already use the simple blueprint of the head of state for a limited time.

Xiao Letian is not a chemistry genius. He has a very shallow understanding of the chemical industry, and the tips he gave to these researchers are naturally extremely simple.

But scientific research is sometimes very interesting, without reminding too much, sometimes you can peek into many secrets with just a crack in the door!

In addition, the Chinese people are booming and the people are in full swing, so scientific researchers are really trying to study day and night.

Many laboratories have created magical breakthroughs in chemical research!

The combustion rod is just a final comparison of the combustion tests of various chemicals, which ensures that the temperature is lower and the brightness is higher than that of the fireworks.

In a word from the soldiers, Fu Qing also heard the clouds and mountains and mists, but the so-called simplicity was what scientists in the laboratory said. For these people in the 19th century, this thing was already very magical.

Fu Qing touched the lighting stick with love and couldn't help but say, "Good thing, it's really a good thing..."

Military people from ancient times to the present have had a headache about night wars. Late-night lighting has been extremely difficult since ancient times. Many classic night attack cases have very strong luck.

Any safe general who is unwilling to fight at night will not be willing to gamble because night war is too dangerous!

It took Fu Qing a while to put down the burning rod, but it was not for the railway soldiers, but it was preciously inserted into his armed belt.

"I really didn't expect that this railway has only been built for a few years, and you can develop supporting tactics. I hope you can teach my soldiers..."

"To be honest, the court allowed me to form a post office army. The main task of this army is to protect railways and telegraph lines. Their combat situation is the same as yours..."

"I hope you don't feel stingy and can give me advice!"

Shimazu Dairo thought for a while, "The tactics are not complicated, what is complicated is the equipment... the output of burning rods is not high, I'm afraid it won't be able to divide you much, and military dogs need time to train..."

"In fact, for the adult army, other tactics are more suitable..."

"Ah? There are new tactics?" Fu Qing didn't expect that the railway troop was established so shortly, and the tactical development was not the same.

"Yes, sir... In fact, for road protection, the most appropriate way is to continuously build Yonggu bunkers. If you build a small bunker on Wuli Road, two or three people can garrison..."

"Build a bigger one on the ten miles road, and no more than ten soldiers are stationed... This is a war period. If in peacetime, one or two people on duty in these fortresses will be enough!"

"The bunker tactic is just one. In fact, the most suitable thing is to protect the road with armed trains..." Zhao Yidao added, "At this moment, the Chinese people set up a locomotive manufacturing factory in Kaiping, and have begun to design and produce steam locomotives!"

"And the renovation of the old locomotive has already begun... General Luo Huo ordered the engineers to arm the existing train!"

"Add armor, lights in multiple places... the most important thing is the cannon. With cannons, there will be control of the battlefield!"

"You're out in a hurry this time. The artillery is on the third train. If you are transported with this train, how could you suffer such a big loss?"

"When encountering an enemy attack, fire a few cannons first. These are bandits and rebels, all of which are a group of mobs. When the cannons are fired, the birds and beasts will scatter!"

"Look at the rebels we killed just now. Many of them actually drink talisman water. I believe that they are invulnerable to swords and guns. Such people don't need nonsense. Cannons are the most reasonable!"

The army slowly moved forward, and a group of people were studying new tactics. Everyone was convinced. The Chinese people were powerful, not just the power of equipment and weapons.

Instead, people's thinking and brains have always been active. They really study methods and really think about the business!

Fu Qing's mouth was getting more and more sore. He knew very well that this was the real prosperity of the times. Just like when the Qing Dynasty just entered the pass, the Eight Banners' children were never cowardly in the battles!

From entering the pass to pacifying the Three Feudals, and pacifying the Mongolian Junggar tribe, gradually securing the country. At that time, the Eight Banners' children were full of vitality and had a lively mind, dared to fight and kill, and were not rigid.

The tens of millions of Qing Dynasty were built up little by little at that time!

Just as Fu Qing was distracted, he suddenly woke him up from the front army. It turned out that Doro's vanguard had been harassed by the rebels again.

The railway vanguard immediately stopped resting. They just fed the military dog ​​some jerky and clear water. After a short rest, they immediately entered the battle again.

With the addition of railway soldiers, this battle was easy to fight. Rounding waves of rebels rushed up and died. In front of these elusive battlefield ghosts, the night-skinned invisibility cloak did not work at all.

Even once again, Shimazu Dairo's team had already reached a distance of less than 400 meters. If another wave of bandits had not exposed their figure, the military dog ​​would have found the Treasure.

Na Duobao, who was hiding in the woods, looked at the dozen rebels in front of him in horror. His crotch had already been soaked, and he crawled on the ground and kept retreating, backing!

"We must have the life to enjoy the glory and wealth! We have been dragging Fuqing for an hour, which is worthy of Ronglu and the others!"

"Fuck, grandpa, I won't serve you anymore. Whoever I love... I will remove my direct line first!"

At a critical moment, Na Duobao actually left the battlefield with Prince Gong's direct descendants, leaving only a group of bandits struggling like blind flies.

It was already eleven o'clock in the evening. Fuqing was more than 40 minutes away from Zhuozhou Camp, and people's eyes showed the light of hope!
