Within the Qin Imperial Palace.
At this time, Ying Zheng was also busy
After receiving Ji Han's guidance, he excitedly returned to the Imperial Palace with the wooden chest and had two ballistae delivered.
This ballista was also a Dao ballista!
This was a large crossbow that could be moved at any time and was installed on a wooden cart. Every time it was used, several strong men had to turn the capstan and place three arrows as thick as a child's arm before it could be used.
Its power was quite terrifying!
Not only could it shoot hundreds of steps away.
Moreover, they had the power of 10,000 catties, and they could even pierce deep into sturdy city walls. They were Great Qin's most powerful bows.
"Imperial Father, what do you mean by this?"
"That's right, Your Majesty. Why did you order these ballistae here?”
"Could it be that Your Majesty wants to test whether the crossbowmen of the General's Mansion are lazy?”
"No, no, no. His Majesty must have obtained something good from the immortal master. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a big fuss!”
Fu Su, Li Xin, and many other officials who came over were confused, but they also became excited.
Now, everyone had become smarter, and knew that Ying Zheng would go to the Immortal Land once every few days, and every time he went, he would get a lot of good things.
Therefore, everyone was too lazy to guess and simply watched from the side.
"Wang Qing, let's begin!" Ying Zheng ordered.
"Wei!"
Wang Ben replied and took out his lighter!
Oh right, this lighter was just stolen from Ji Han's desk!
Regardless of whether our Marquis Tongwu has money or not, and regardless of whether he is doing well or not, he likes to take lighters.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wang Ben lit up a cigar and started smoking. Then, he tied the three grenades to the arrows that were already drawn!
"What are you looking at, a bunch of country bumpkins!"
"This is a grenade bestowed by the immortal master. When tied to our ballistae, it will become a ballista, and it will be very powerful.”
Wang Ben shouted as he took a torch from a soldier.
His pretentious appearance immediately made the officials unhappy. Their fiery personalities almost went up to beat him up.
However, everyone's attention was quickly drawn to the ballistae!
Wang Ben quickly ignited the fuse of three wooden grenades.
Chi chi chi!
After the fuse was ignited, it quickly burned!
Wang Ben was so scared that he shivered and yelled hysterically,"Hurry up! Shoot it out, quick!"
"Whoosh!"
The soldiers controlling the ballistae immediately cut off the ropes, and three ballistae carrying wooden grenades shot out like lightning, accurately striking a wall three hundred paces away.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three earth-shattering explosions instantly sounded!
All the officials and soldiers were stunned.
The three crossbow bolts that had pierced deep into the city wall had already been blown into pieces. As the flames soared into the sky, large amounts of stone fragments flew everywhere.
The terrifying explosion actually blasted three deep pits into the city wall.
The area around the explosion site was in a mess, and it looked abnormally terrifying.
"Heavens, what, what is this? Could it be divine lightning descending from the sky?"
"Could this be the immortal technique of the immortal master? Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"That's right. We congratulate Your Majesty!"
Many of the civil officials were excited, but they also sighed in ecstasy!
"What do you know?" Wang Ben sneered. This is the power of technology. The Celestial Master said that in the future, Great Qin's people can also create such good things themselves.”
After that, Wang Ben lit up a few wooden grenades with his torch and threw them at the enemies!
Rumble!
There was another huge explosion in the distance!
Now everyone understood. This was not immortal lightning, but a grenade that could explode.
"Good stuff, really good stuff!”
"We can make it ourselves in the future? Isn't this too unbelievable?"
"Hahaha, with such a divine item in hand, who else can our Great Qin army fight against?”
The officials were excited, and the generals were so excited that their eyes lit up.
Li Xin immediately knelt on one knee and shouted,""Your Majesty, this item will be of great use to our Northern Expedition Army. Your Majesty, please give me a hundred thousand or eighty thousand pieces. I will definitely suppress this Man City completely!”
"Li Xin kid, what does this have to do with you?”Tu Sui was so angry that he shouted,"Most of your men are cavalrymen. How can you carry this thing around?" It should be given to my army!"
"Why not? If we can't bring ballistae, can't we smash them with our own hands?”Li Xin stubbornly argued,"Didn't you hear Marquis Tong Wu say that this treasure is called a grenade?" This was clearly done with his hands!"
"Shameless brat, fight me if you have the ability!”
"I'll fight you then. Do you think I'm afraid of you?”
The two valiant generals immediately prepared to fight one-on-one.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng waved his hand and said," Alright, quiet down. I've only brought back a dozen or so of these items. But, I'll be able to get thirty thousand of them in seven days, which will be perfect for the Xiongnu. Every one of you will have a chance!"”
"Tu Sui, immediately lead 50,000 infantry and set off first. Seven days later, Li Xin will lead 10,000 cavalry and set off. When they arrive at Shanggu County, they will meet up with Meng Tian and then crush the Xiongnu with lightning speed!”
"Wei!"
Li Xin and Tu Sui knelt on one knee in excitement!
"Fusu, transfer grain from the granaries to Xianyang. The more the better, quickly!”Ying Zheng continued to order.
"Father!" "What do you mean?" Fu Su was shocked. Shouldn't the provisions be transferred to the north when the war is going on in the north?”
"These provisions are used to exchange for firearms, understand?”Ying Zheng explained patiently, and Fu Su immediately understood.
"Yes, sir! I'll do it immediately!" Fu Su immediately agreed.
"Wang Ben, pick another thousand soldiers from the army and prepare to form the Musket Corps!”" Seven days later, when Chongzhen hands over the goods, we will have to start training," Ying Zheng ordered solemnly." Do you understand?”
"Wei!"
Wang Ben agreed excitedly.
Others might not understand what was going on, but he knew it clearly.
Ying Zheng was preparing to start the era of firearms in Great Qin!
