An hour later, Ying Zhan and Lu Bu arrived at a forest.
The quaking thunders this time were not like the big firecrackers in the arms factory, but real explosives.
Ying Zhan used a few clay pots, added black gunpowder and various types of iron sand, and completed it after a few times of casting. Hence, during the production process, Ying Zhan purposely left the fuse longer.
The two of them placed the quaking thunders (earthenware explosives) between a few big trees. Then, they pulled out the fuse and lit it with a lighter.
"Tsk…"
With a sizzling sound, the fuse immediately emitted green smoke and quickly burned.
The two of them then walked a few hundred feet away and looked at the situation from afar!
"Boom!"
After a few breaths, the earthen jar of explosives exploded. Its sound was earth-shattering, just like its name: Thunderbolt!
As the quaking thunder exploded, a large tree fell!
As for the center of the explosion, after the thick smoke dispersed, it was already a mess. The place where the quaking thunder was placed had directly exploded into a huge pit with a diameter of three meters!
Lu Bu stared at the scene in front of him with his mouth agape, his heart pounding wildly!
However, Ying Zhan was not surprised. This power should only be considered ordinary. It was far from being as powerful as those explosives that could split mountains and rocks in his previous life because they lacked detonators!
However, to be able to achieve such power, it should be more than enough to intimidate the rebel soldiers on the battlefield!
"My lord, this…the power of the quaking thunders has really opened Lu Bu's eyes!”Lu Bu sighed after calming down.
"Hehe, this is only the most primitive quaking thunder. If it is improved, then its power will be ten times greater than today's!”Ying Zhan said with a smile.
"What?"
Lu Bu's eyes widened in disbelief.""Doesn't that mean that on the battlefield, a few quaking thunders would be enough to defeat the enemy?!”
"That's right. That's why when you go back, you have to speed up the production of quaking thunders and build a thunder army. At that time, they would be able to get twice the results with half the effort!”
As Ying Zhan spoke, the scene of the enemy being blasted apart by the quaking thunders appeared in his mind. For a moment, he actually had an inexplicable sense of anticipation!
"Lu Bu will not disappoint the lord's expectations!”
At the same time, the people in Xingyang City were shocked by the sudden thunderbolt!
Just as they were looking around, they saw a cloud of thick smoke rising from somewhere outside the city…
The next day, a strange military camp suddenly appeared outside Xingyang City, and from time to time, such thunderbolts came out of the blue.
In the following days, people gradually became accustomed to such sounds.
These days, the black gunpowder produced by the Military Fire was constantly transported to the Lei Army Training Camp outside the city.
In the Lei Jun Training Camp, over a thousand quaking thunders were produced in just ten days!
Of course, they would make quaking thunders in the morning and practice throwing quaking thunders in the afternoon. As a result, they did not have a lot of quaking thunders in stock.
As for the land within a few miles of the training camp, it was pitiful. It was all charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with deep pits everywhere!
In order to reduce the consumption of the quaking thunders, Lu Bu thought of another method. He would use something similar in size and weight to throw the quaking thunders!
As Lu Bu increased the intensity of his training, the 5,000 soldiers gradually mastered the throwing technique and the burning time of the fuse.
During this period of time, other than occasionally checking the recruit training camp and the Lei Jun training camp, Ying Zhan had been getting close to Yu Xin almost every day.
Today, Ying Zhan was just as usual, thinking of doing something with Yu Xin during the day, when Jia Xu hurriedly came over to ruin his plans.
"My lord, according to the secret agents, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu have already joined forces in Xuecheng. Other rebel soldiers have also gathered in Xuecheng to celebrate the King of Chu's ambition to ascend the throne!”
After seeing Ying Zhan come out with an unhappy expression, Jia Xu immediately reported to Ying Zhan.
Hearing this, Ying Zhan immediately took it seriously and asked,"Wenhe, what do you think about this?”
"We can't let Xiong Xin sit firmly in the position of King Chu. Otherwise, as time goes on, the people in the old Chu Country will turn to the rebel army. Their strength will grow and become equal to Great Qin!”Jia Xu said with a solemn expression.
"It seems that sending troops to Xuecheng is imminent!”
Ying Zhan pondered for a moment and said," That's good too. The recruits have been training with Lei Jun for more than a month. It's time to take them out for a walk!"”
"Lord, in Jia Xu's opinion, we should split our troops into two groups. One group will go south to eliminate the remaining forces of Chen Sheng and recover Dang County!”
Jia Xu lightly waved his feather fan and said,"The other group will go north to Xuecheng and encircle the rebel soldiers who are supporting King Deng of Chu there!"”
"Do you think Lin Feng can go south to quell the rebellion?”Ying Zhan asked.
"Lin Feng is a talent and should be able to hold his own. In Jia Xu's opinion, it would be best to let General Yuan Ba go with him.”Jia Xu said.
"Alright, since that's the case, Wen He will go and prepare to send troops first. In addition, gather all the generals to the military yamen to discuss sending troops!”
"Here!"
Finished talking, Jia Xu hurriedly left again!
