Chapter 36: Eliminating Hatred
```
The flat stone was a decoy, concealing the most advanced timing system in this world, along with several chemical substances including white phosphorus.
The timing system was driven by a spring and constituted by multiple sets of gears, which would trigger a small explosion by fusing potassium chlorate and phosphorus when a set time was reached.
The explosive power of potassium chlorate and phosphorus was not substantial, but it was enough to ignite a large amount of white phosphorus mixture combined with multiple chemical substances.
The white phosphorus mixture inside the flat stone was made according to the proportions used in military white phosphorus grenades, and if Li Shiming hadn’t been worried about the power being too great, he would have prepared to use the white phosphorus grenades he made directly.
Due to the excessive power of white phosphorus grenades, he had used a large server, the IBM z15, for calculations and determined the amount of white phosphorus mixture needed to destroy a carriage.
Upon seeing Prince Shun’s carriage, he calculated the time it would take for Prince Shun’s convoy to arrive. As long as Prince Shun’s team didn’t change its speed, the timing could be accurate to about a second.
Inside Prince Shun’s carriage, Prince Shun and a few close officials were chatting when they suddenly felt a commotion from outside.
Then, Prince Shun saw the entire carriage engulfed in a strange white flame, which in an instant pierced through the bottom of the carriage and the four sides, made of thick wood and ox-hide.
This carriage was specially made, with thick, high-density wood and treated ox-hide capable of stopping armor-piercing arrows shot from strong bows.
But in the face of the white phosphorus mixture, it couldn’t even withstand a single breath before being burned through.
The white flames latched onto everyone in the carriage, and in the face of the white flames, status was irrelevant—they all faced death.
