Who on earth could improve the weapons of the Zhou Dynasty to such a powerful level.

The weapons of Great Qin are the pride of many countries, and many countries purchase weapons from Great Qin in large quantities every year.

The price is high, and it is a huge expense to the national treasury every year.

In the event of war, the Zhou Dynasty would also purchase from the Qin Kingdom.

The weapons they made were extremely sharp and harder than other countries.

Now, their weapons are easily cut off by their own country's weapons. This is undoubtedly exciting news.

This will not only save the treasury expenditure, but if it is produced in large quantities, it can also be sold externally. By then, the treasury of the Great Zhou Dynasty will be even more abundant.

In the event of war, these weapons are life-saving weapons, which can greatly reduce the casualties of soldiers.

It can improve the chances of winning the war!

No matter which point, it was a great achievement for the Zhou Dynasty.

The ministers, no longer caring about etiquette, began to whisper to each other, telling each other their guesses.

They all denied it again and felt it was incorrect.

The emperor even speculated whether King Jin had invited experts from somewhere.

The guess was fruitless, and everyone looked at King Jin expectantly, hoping that he could announce the answer.

King Jin, who looked enigmatic, looked at Wei Ling'er as if he was asking for something.

Everyone thought that this expert must be related to Princess Jin.

But he immediately denied that he had never heard of an expert visiting the Duke's Mansion recently.

Listening to everyone's discussion, Wei Ling'er still had a calm look on his face.

When Prince Jin looked at her, he smiled sweetly.

In an instant, everyone felt that everything had lost its color, and only Princess Jin's bright smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, stunning the time.

After getting her approval, King Jin said: "The guesses of all the ministers are wrong. This person is none other than my wife. She provided the forging method. I am only responsible for letting the master forge it."

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent, so quiet that you could hear the heavy breathing of the people next to you.

Everyone looked stunned. It was obvious that they were quite frightened. Yes, they were frightened!

They would never have thought that such a capable person was actually a woman! And she is a woman who has just reached her hair.

Everyone thought King Jin was joking!

Wei Tingshan himself didn't believe that Ling'er had such ability!

The prince even felt that King Jin was looking for fun with them. How could Wei Ling'er, a girl from a boudoir, be so capable.

After a long time, the emperor said with a look of disbelief: "Brother, this matter is related to the country. Don't joke!"

The officials also echoed: "Prince Jin, this matter is not a trivial matter, don't make me happy!"

King Jin smiled for a while, did he seem like someone who would joke about such a big thing?

"Brother, you are really my wife! My brother dare not joke about this!" King Jin said sincerely.

Everyone still looked suspicious.

King Jin had no choice but to look at Wei Ling'er.

Wei Ling'er smiled, knowing that if she didn't explain today, no one would believe her.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly said: "Your Majesty, the method of forging weapons is indeed the work of this concubine!"

"I know how to forge other weapons. You can draw the drawings now and ask the emperor to take a look at it!"

When the emperor heard Wei Ling'er personally admit it, he somewhat believed it.

Princess Jin’s proposal is feasible!

He immediately ordered: "Pass the pen, ink, paper and inkstone!"

Eunuch De immediately went to do it himself.

Soon, pens, ink, paper and inkstones were ready, and the eunuchs even moved a table and chairs into the palace.

Eunuch De personally studied the ink for Wei Ling'er, and Wei Ling'er smiled.

Then he sat down calmly, grabbed a pen, dipped some ink, and then wrote on the bright yellow paper in a leisurely manner.

Wei Ling'er not only drew the patterns on the drawings, but also carefully wrote down the manufacturing methods.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a drawing was completed. Eunuch De waited for the ink to dry slightly before picking up the drawing and hurriedly walked towards the emperor.

Wei Linger continued to draw the second picture.

The emperor took the weapon drawing from Eunuch De's hand. It was a design drawing for a crossbow. He was shocked to see the familiar but slightly different style on it.

This looks like an improved version! I just don’t know how effective it will be when actually produced.

"Liu Aiqing, take a look at this drawing!" The emperor said excitedly to Liu Xin, Minister of War, his tone full of excitement.

Eunuch De immediately took the drawing, walked to Liu Shangshu, and handed it over respectfully.

Liu Shangshu knew that King Jin had come to the forging camp of the Ministry of War a few days ago, but King Jin blocked the news and locked the doors of the forging camp.

He also sent someone to tell him that he must guard the military forging camp and not let the news leak out.

Later he learned that they had made a weapon that could cut iron as well as clay, and he verified it himself.

He was very curious about how King Jin obtained these forging blueprints.

Since King Jin left after the weapon was successfully forged, he never had a chance to ask.

Today, he planned to report the matter to the emperor after the banquet was over.

Unexpectedly, at the banquet, the emperor himself asked about this matter.

When Wei Ling'er admitted the matter, he didn't believe it either.

But at this moment, he took the drawing drawn by Wei Ling'er and looked at it carefully. He was extremely excited. At this moment, he was absolutely sure that Wei Ling'er was the one who provided the weapon forging method.

"Your Majesty, this method is very exquisite, and I can confirm that the range of the crossbow made by this method will definitely be more than twice as far as the original one!"

When everyone heard this, they all had expressions of being struck by lightning. If the distance was more than double, wouldn't it be possible to shoot directly to 400-500 meters away?

Now their crossbows only have a range of over 200 meters, not less than 300 meters.

This is undoubtedly a huge military revolution!

Everyone looked at Wei Ling'er in shock, wanting to see the drawing in Liu Shangshu's hand even more.

But they knew that this was a military secret and they were not qualified to watch it.

King Jin seemed to be ignored by the emperor.

At this time, Wei Linger, who was leisurely, completed two more drawings.

Seeing this, Eunuch De came over with the drawings and respectfully handed them over to the emperor for review.

The emperor took the drawings and couldn't wait to look at them.

Of these two drawings, one is a bed crossbow and the other is a thunderball.

The emperor frowned slightly, what is this thunderball? I saw a round ball with a tail painted on it.

The emperor looked at the ingredients: sulfur and saltpeter.

Isn’t that an ingredient of gunpowder? Is this something similar to gunpowder?

Wei Ling'er marked on it: The lethality is huge and it needs to be projected at least 100 meters away from him.

The more the emperor looked at it, the more he couldn't believe it. After this thing was created, would the Zhou Dynasty be invincible?
