Soon, Zhu Long and Chang Le arrived at the Munitions Factory.
As soon as they entered the Munitions Factory, they saw an unbelievable scene!
Four rows of super cannons were neatly placed in the open space in front of them. There were 25 cannons in each row, so there were exactly 100 cannons in total.
Each super cannon had a serial number on it.
From number 1 to 100, they were arranged according to numbers and were easy to identify.
Chang Le had never seen such a cannon before. He stared at it with his bright eyes for a while and asked curiously,""Wangye, what are these long things? It looks so big."
Zhu Long took Chang Le's hand and walked to the front of the super cannon. He touched the cannon barrel and said,""This is a very powerful weapon. If it's loaded with cannonballs, it can hit five kilometers away. With this weapon, those Manchurians with long braids will never dare to attack us again.”
The little loli climbed up to the end of the cannon and looked around curiously. When she heard Zhu Long's words, she waved her little fists in the air and said happily,"Hehe, wangye is the best! They could even develop such a powerful weapon. When those people with long braids came, he would definitely teach them a lesson.”
Zhu Long shook his head. This little girl was only seven years old. How could she know what it meant to marry a wife? He smiled awkwardly and said,"Hehe, we are nobles and have to abide by etiquette. You will know these things when you grow up.”
The little loli had a strong thirst for knowledge. Seeing that she was about to continue asking questions, Zhu Long immediately changed the topic. He pointed at the crossbow on the empty space behind him and said,"Come, let's go over there to see the repeating crossbows.”
Because there were a total of five thousand Han soldiers in the city, five thousand repeating crossbows were made. Each repeating crossbow was equipped with thirty arrows, ensuring that everyone could get one.
The two of them walked to the crossbow. Changle looked at it carefully and said,""It looks like a bow and arrow, but it looks more complicated than a bow and arrow.”
Zhu Long picked up a crossbow and felt that it was quite heavy. He held it in his hand and looked at it carefully. He nodded and said,"Of course, the cannons and crossbows were designed by this king.”
Chang Le stroked the crossbow on the ground. Hearing Zhu Long's words, he still said in a lovestruck manner,""Hehe, Your Highness is the best!"
At this moment, the craftsman who was leading the workers to make the repeating crossbow walked over and introduced it to Zhu Long,""Your Highness, this subordinate has tested this repeating crossbow. It can shoot ten arrows at a time, and with the maximum pulling force, it can indeed reach a distance of one kilometer.”
"Can you really shoot fifteen arrows in a row? I really didn't expect this!"
The most repeating crossbows currently used could shoot ten arrows in a row. He had never heard of a repeating crossbow that could shoot more than ten arrows in a row.
Shooting fifteen arrows in a row could save the archer more time and cause more damage to the enemy. It was killing two birds with one stone!
"Amazing! However, he had never tested it on the spot, so he did not know how its actual combat ability was.”
Zhu Long could not help but sigh.
At this moment, a soldier guarding the city wall ran in in panic and reported to Zhu Longhui,""Reporting to your highness, something bad has happened. Five kilometers away from the city, a large number of troops have been found stationed! Because they were too far away, we couldn't see who they were. However, we saw their flag clearly. They should be Manchu!”
"Oh? Are you finally here?" Hearing this news, he was not surprised at all. In fact, he had been waiting for the Manchu barbarian army. He asked,"How many people do you think there are?"
The soldier thought for a moment and said," There are many more than the cavalry of the Meng Kingdom, about five times their number. In short, they seem to have come prepared. They brought ladders to attack the city and weapons to ram the city gate. The size of the army is very large!”
Zhu Long pondered for a moment and could roughly guess the size of the Manchu army.
50,000 people was indeed a lot!
This was because there were only about 200,000 Manchurians in the entire Qing Dynasty.
There were so many places in the north, and the Manchu army still had to guard them. In reality, the number of Manchu soldiers that could be mobilized was estimated to be at most 100,000.
Just to beat him up, so many people had been mobilized. It seemed that Dorgon was indeed very afraid of him growing up. He had to get rid of him as soon as possible!
"Hehe, you really think highly of this king. You actually mobilized so many people? Looks like Dorgon is determined to get rid of this king!”
"However, all of this is just wishful thinking!”
"Now, This King has invincible defense walls and super cannons. No matter how many barbarians come, they are just cannon fodder!”
"What a good person! Since Dorgon insists on giving his head away, then this king can only accept it. Otherwise, how embarrassing would it be for the regent!”
Various thoughts flashed through Zhu Long's mind. He had been looking forward to this day for a long time!
If he killed all 50,000 of them, Dorgon would be furious!
Because there were already very few people!
With so many dead, how could they attack the resistance forces in the south?
"Haha, this is the result I want!”
Li Hu's face lit up. He knew that Zhu Long was about to attack the entire army. He quickly nodded and said,"This subordinate will obey!"
"Let's go to the city wall and use the super cannon to greet the guests from afar!”
Zhu Long held the hand of the little loli from Chang Le and walked towards the city wall with a smile on his face.
