Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 199 Bombs are more powerful, alcohol can be disinfected

Li Shimin was laughing heartily, his voice shaking the whole house.

At this moment, Xiao Yulian took light steps, bowed slightly, and said softly, "Your Majesty, I have another plan."

"If a soldier is injured on the battlefield, alcohol can be used to disinfect the wound. This will prevent the wound from becoming infected and ensure that the soldier recovers quickly, returning to the battlefield and continuing to fight for Your Majesty and defend the country."

Li Shimin was slightly startled, his eyes full of curiosity. He stopped laughing and looked at Xiaoyu, asking with interest, "Oh, really? This alcohol actually has such a magical effect that it can prevent wounds from getting infected?"

"I have never heard of such a wonderful method before. Please explain it in detail so that I can understand the ins and outs of it."

As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly, waiting intently for Xiaoyu to continue.

Xiaoyu responded respectfully, "Your Majesty, this alcohol has antiseptic properties. Its ingredients can destroy the structure of bacteria, making it difficult for harmful microorganisms in the wound to survive and reproduce."

"When alcohol is applied to a wound, it quickly penetrates and eliminates bacteria that could cause infection, thereby reducing the risk of suppuration and ulceration, allowing the wound to heal in a cleaner environment."

"Therefore, using alcohol to disinfect wounds is an effective way to reduce infection among soldiers and improve the combat effectiveness of the army."

Li Shimin frowned, obviously still wondering what those "bacteria" were, and looked a little confused for a moment.

At this time, Yuyu said crisply, "Your Majesty, don't worry about whether it's bacteria or not. This method is effective. Just listen to my mother. It's right. Don't worry about those things we don't understand. As long as the injured soldiers can recover quickly and continue to win the battle, that's all that matters."

Yu Yu put her hands behind her back, tilted her head, and had a playful yet determined look on her face.

Li Shimin was stunned at first, but then he burst into laughter. His laugh was hearty and full of joy. He said, "Hahaha, that's good. Although I still don't quite understand what those bacteria are, since you say they are useful, then they must be correct."

"I will now issue the order. If any soldiers in the army are injured in the future, they can use this alcohol to disinfect their wounds. I hope that the injured soldiers will suffer less pain and recover quickly so that they can continue to make great contributions to the Tang Dynasty."

After saying this, the smile was still on his face, and his eyes were full of hope that this method would work.

Yuyu's eyes sparkled, and with a hint of pride, he said, "Your Majesty, there's one more thing. This gunpowder is incredible! If we use it to make bombs, it will be incredibly powerful. It will definitely work wonders on the battlefield, and it will terrify the enemy."

Li Shimin's smile froze instantly, his expression becoming serious. He fixed his gaze on Yuyu and said sternly, "Yuyu, using gunpowder to make bombs is no joke. Gunpowder is powerful, but if it's misused, it will bring immeasurable disaster to the Tang Dynasty. We must be extremely cautious with such matters and never spread them casually."

Xiaoyu looked anxious and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, Your Majesty. Compared to a grenade, this bomb has a larger charge and a wider explosion range, and the impact and destructive power it produces are both more powerful."

"Once deployed on the battlefield, it can inflict a heavier blow to the enemy's camps and fortifications, significantly changing the course of the battle and increasing the chances of victory for the Tang army."

Li Hao bowed slightly and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, after the fuse of this bomb is lit, it must be thrown towards the enemy as quickly and decisively as a grenade."

"Because it contains a large amount of gunpowder, once it explodes, it will instantly explode with astonishing force. If there is even a slight delay, everyone nearby will be harmed. Therefore, the operator must remember to throw it immediately after lighting it. This is to ensure their own safety and to maximize its power against the enemy."

Li Shimin nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of caution. He said calmly, "Yes, I understand. Since this bomb is more powerful, it must be used with greater caution."

"I will instruct the army to select the most calm and clever soldiers to operate this powerful device. We must ensure the full effectiveness of this device and the safety of our Tang soldiers. We must not allow its power to harm our own people."

After saying this, his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about how to properly arrange for the use of this bomb on the battlefield.

Xiaoyu bowed slightly and said softly, "Your Majesty, precisely because the bomb is so powerful, its manufacture and transportation are of paramount importance and cannot afford any mistakes."

“The manufacturing site must be away from camps and crowded areas, and experienced and skilled craftsmen must strictly control every process to ensure the bombs are of stable quality and safe.”

"During transportation, the most stable and safe route should be chosen, with reliable soldiers carefully escorting them. Appropriate protective measures and emergency response measures should also be prepared to prevent any unforeseen circumstances."

Li Shimin listened to Xiaoyu's words with a serious expression and nodded slowly, knowing the pros and cons of the matter.

Yuyu then spoke crisply, "Your Majesty, there must be no open flames around the bomb being made. Even the slightest spark could cause a catastrophe and instantly turn the manufacturing area into a purgatory, so the surrounding environment must be strictly controlled."

The emperor nodded: "I understand."

Li Hao then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. We must find someone loyal and trustworthy to produce and manage it. Only in this way can we protect the secrets, ensure the production is orderly, and ensure that this bomb can be used smoothly by the Tang Dynasty without causing any harm."

The emperor nodded three times and fell into deep thought, wondering who should be selected to take on this important task.

Yuyu's lively eyes blinked, and she suggested crisply, "Your Majesty, I think we should let General Cheng, General Li Jing, and the military advisor take charge of this matter."

"General Cheng is fearless and prudent, General Li Jing is resourceful and experienced, and the military advisor is far-sighted and skilled in strategic planning. With their combined efforts, the production and management of this bomb will be foolproof. We will surely create a powerful weapon for the Tang Dynasty to defeat the enemy and strike fear into the hearts of the Korean bandits."

Li Shimin's eyes were filled with approval as he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, that's them. General Cheng and the others are all my trusted subordinates, familiar with all things military, and each of them is loyal and capable."

Yu Yu skipped to the backyard of the tavern, where it was quiet and peaceful.

She found a stone table to sit down, took out a pen and paper from her pocket, and thought about the bomb incident: "System..."

[I don't know why the host called the system]

Yuyu put down the pen and paper in her hand, raised her head, her eyes filled with anticipation and eagerness, and shouted crisply into the void: "System, it's like this, you must quickly give me the method to make bombs, don't delay."
