Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 553

Chapter 571 Thunderbolt

Although Yingzheng has raised his butcher knife against the countries in the Western Regions, he is waiting for an opportunity.

But the superficial work still needs to be done.

On the second day, Ying Gang directly announced that all the envoys from the countries in the Western Regions and the ministers of the DPRK and China gathered in the secret mountain of the foundry.

Because of the secrecy, Ying Gang did not reveal half of it before the envoy arrived.

After all the envoys got out of the car and saw the desolation in front of them, they were full of doubts.

The timid even thought that Ying Zheng was going to kill and execute them secretly.

Ying Gang asked his subordinates to forcibly pull them out, and told them the reason, and they felt relieved when they saw that it wasn't murder.

Because they had learned the lesson from last time, all the courtiers of the state of Qin learned how to put cotton in their ears this time.

All the envoys looked at the scene in front of them inexplicably, but the next moment they really regretted it to death.

"Crench!"

A black round object with a long spark behind it left the huge trebuchet with a deep sound of breaking through the air, and fell in a parabola towards the open space on the side of the valley.

"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and the thing that looked like a black iron ball was not a stone bullet, but it was not a stone bullet, and the iron bullet was not an iron bullet, and it hit the ground heavily. It is not moving.

What is this scenario?
Dale and other generals all looked at each other in blank dismay.

If it wasn't for Ying Gang standing in front, they would all be paralyzed on the ground right now.

Take us out to blow the northwest wind, just to see how you can't throw the sparking iron lumps out with a trebuchet?

Xu Fu secretly glanced at Ying Gang who was standing in front of him, seeing that Ying Gang didn't show any annoyance on his face, he was slightly relieved.

Today the prince brought a group of envoys from the Western Regions to watch the power of gunpowder.

Originally, he planned to blow up the ship as last time, but Ying Gang vetoed it, and asked Xu Fu to use the "Booming Thunder" trebuchet that the Ordnance Department was researching.

The Ordnance Department is an institution established by Ying Gang in Shangfang after the research of gunpowder. The task of this institution is very simple, which is to specialize in the research of various weapons for the Qin army, especially gunpowder weapons.

In the Ordnance Division, there are a group of alchemists who studied gunpowder and were lucky enough to survive and were rewarded by the Yingzheng Grand Prize, and now they are completely full, and they are called chemists in a different form, as well as the most skilled craftsmen of the Mohist School and the entire Shangfang.

The crown prince came here in person today. Xu Fu was worried that something might happen to the "Thunderbolt" type trebuchet that had not yet been successfully developed. It is a serious crime for people to have nothing to do, or to frighten the prince.

After all, in everyone's mind, Ying Gang, the dean of Taiyuan Academy, was a greater threat to them than Ying Zheng.

You know, the Ordnance Division tried to shoot the "Thunderbolt" several times before, because the fuse was too short and burned too fast, so that the iron bullet exploded on the trebuchet before it was thrown out.

These iron bombs filled with gunpowder are different from stone bombs. On the one hand, the explosive movement is huge and the sparks are splashing in all directions. just die.

Since the "Booming Thunder" has only been studied for a short time, Xu Fu and others have not yet fully grasped the burning time of the lead wire and the area covered by the iron sheet after it exploded, so they had to take the safest measures.

However, Xu Fu didn't expect that the lead wire was so long that the iron bullet fell to the ground and rolled in a circle. There was still a long part of the lead wire that hadn't burned out, let alone exploded.

"Messengers, don't worry. It can be seen that everything related to gunpowder is covered with the blood of my Daqin craftsmen. Without them, I am afraid that my Daqin would never be able to master such a heaven-defying weapon. Let's do it again!"

Ying Zheng turned his head and glanced at Xu Fu, who was constantly wiping cold sweat, as well as the craftsmen and alchemists of the ordnance institute, and glanced around at the envoys from the Western Regions with expressions of disapproval, said indifferently.

Xu Fu quickly responded and asked people to make preparations.

"boom!"

Another iron ball flew out quickly, and the ground trembled suddenly.Before everyone could speak, the iron ball, which was still still just now, suddenly heard a terrifying explosion.Amidst the flames, the empty space that was originally empty has been shrouded in turbulent dust.

Many people were shaken by the loud noise, and their legs went limp and they fell to the ground.

Because this is no longer done by human beings, but by the power of gods.

Now the power of this god seems to have been mastered by His Majesty the Great Qin Emperor.Who else in this world can pose a threat to Daqin?

Everyone looked blankly at the place where a huge deep pit exploded.

Roaring, blazing, shattering, today's scene will forever be engraved in their hearts.

Dale looked at the scene in front of him with a look of surprise in his eyes.

"May I ask Your Highness, what is this thing?"

Although Dale seemed to be calm, in fact, his slightly trembling legs had completely betrayed him.

"This object is called Thunderbolt, and it is used to attack the city and throw it out."

Dell's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

Throwing, this thing actually wants to be thrown.

The sudden movement just now made him see clearly that if such a terrifying thing fell on the city of their country, the damage caused in that instant would be absolutely unimaginable.

Dell swallowed his saliva, calmed down and asked again: "Dare to ask Your Highness, are there many things?"

Ying Gang didn't speak but looked down at Xu Fu beside him.

The latter quickly explained: "I, Daqin, can produce fifty pieces of this thing every day. If it is mass-produced, it is estimated that it can achieve more than 150 pieces."

Dale didn't understand the language of Qin State, so he asked for a long time before he knew the exact number of 150 pieces.

And the many Western Regions nearby also hurriedly asked about the specific situation. After they all knew the power of this magical weapon, their faces were no longer the surprise they used to be, but a kind of deep fear.

Half of them came here to understand Qin's plans for the future.

They have seen the magnificence of Qin State, and their yearning for this land is stronger than before.

Originally, they planned to go back and find ways to mobilize troops to invade Qin, even if they had to fight those terrifying troops in Bijia City, they would not hesitate.

But after reading it today, he knew that he was really wrong.

A country with such weapons can they defeat?

Such stone bullets fell on their own city, no matter how strong their soldiers are, so what?

In the end, don't they all turn into a pool of loess?
Suddenly, many people's thoughts changed at this moment.

But today's performance did not come to an end.
