Happy peasant girl

Chapter 494 Making Weapons (3)
However, he still didn't want to see Lin Qingxi get angry, so he said timidly: "Mother, I'm sorry!"

"Princess, don't blame Zhengzheng little master. The subordinates know that you have a heart, but Qixuan country bullies the few, and is determined to occupy the Chu country. If the Chu country is subjugated, then more people will die. We are also doing this to protect ourselves and the people of Chu." Vice General Sun suddenly knelt down in front of Lin Qingxi, he hoped that Lin Qingxi would reveal the powerful weapon against the enemy, so that they would not have to sacrifice their lives in vain .

Several other lieutenants also knelt in front of Linqingxi. The original emperor of the Wu Kingdom also knew about this gunpowder technique. It is said that the formula finally fell into the hands of the people of Qixuan Kingdom.

It is rumored that King Wei's people have also experimented with gunpowder, but the power is not particularly strong, but they just heard that he overturned a big tent with just a little gunpowder, so there is enough gunpowder If so, wouldn't it be possible to kill many people at once?

With such a powerful weapon, they can defeat a hundred with one enemy, and no matter how many people come from Qixuan Kingdom, they will not be afraid anymore, and Zhengzheng said that Linqingxi also knows a kind of trebuchet that can throw gunpowder Throw it farther.

Then this powerful gunpowder will not harm one's own people, but only harm their enemies. Isn't this a great thing!
However, in the eyes of Deputy General Sun and the others, Lin Qingxi is a woman after all, and a kind-hearted woman. Although she is from Chu, she is not as calm and excited as those who have been in the battlefield for a long time. There are many worries, and now I want to dispel her worries.

"An'an, I won't force you. Even if there is no trebuchet, we will definitely win." Yan Yun said earlier that he didn't want Linqingxi's hands to be stained with blood, and he could do such a thing. up.

"Let me think about it!" Lin Qingxi still hesitated. Some people in the Qixuan army on the opposite side really deserve to die, but most of them are innocent, but each is their own master. She also understands that the price of victory is Blood stained.

At night, after putting the three children to sleep, Lin Qingxi walked out of the big tent, and Yan Yun, who had been dealing with military affairs until late at night, also happened to walk out of his own tent. Guardian, they walked hand in hand in the barracks.

The night is as cold as water, and there are piles of bonfires burning outside the tents. It will soon be late autumn, and frost has already begun to fall in the western Xinjiang, and the temperature has dropped below zero.

Fortunately, the cotton coats prepared by Lin Qingxi had already been delivered, so these soldiers did not freeze into popsicles.

They cuddled together in twos and threes, some had frostbite on their faces, but their young-looking faces were covered with untimely wind and frost.

Only halfway there, Lin Qingxi turned around and walked back. She had been here for a while, but she hadn't had a good look at these Chu soldiers yet.

Originally, they were supposed to start a family and start a business, or stay at home with their parents, wives and children, but in this battle, they may never go back.

After returning to the dormitory, Lin Qingxi and Yan Yun sat silently at each other, and Yan Yun knew that what Lin Qingxi needed most now was to get over the hurdle in his heart.

"Yun, why did you become King Lin of the Chu Kingdom? You are not from the Zhengji Continent, so you can completely avoid this dispute." Lin Qingxi has been wanting to ask Yun Yun this question for a long time, but she just brought it up now. Come out, perhaps under such circumstances, she needs Yan Yun to help her make a decision together.

"I said before that you are my wife, and you are from Chu, so I am also from Chu. This King Lin was asked by Chu Huai for me when your master Lu Zhiming decided to leave the capital. Do you think, Why did your master do this?" Let alone a prince of the Chu Kingdom, even in this world, Yan Yun is not interested, and everything he does is only for one person, that is Linqingxi.

Lin Qingxi looked at Yan Yun in surprise, she didn't expect that it would be Lu Zhiming who promoted Yan Yun to become Lin King of Chu State, now Lu Zhiming is helping Chu Xuan, but Lin Qingxi can guess if he doesn't ask him face to face Out of Lu Zhiming's intention.

Lu Zhiming, who is the most loyal and patriotic, must have seen that Yan Yun has enough talents. If he has a part in defending Chu, then the hope of Chu's continued preservation will be even greater.

I am from the state of Chu, and I have my own family members on the territory of the state of Chu, so I will not leave the state of Chu, and Yan Yun is willing to take on responsibilities that he should not have borne for himself.

Then what is she thinking about so much, as long as she thinks about making Chu State win at all costs, then all the problems will be gone.

The next day, Deputy General Sun and several deputy generals waited outside the tent early. After a night of deliberation, they didn't know what Linqingxi's decision was. If she didn't tell them, they would have nothing to do.

When Yan Yun let a few people enter the military tent, they saw a table set up in the middle of the big tent, Yan Yun was standing at the main seat, Lin Qingxi was standing beside him, and there was a picture on the table.

These lieutenants are the people Yan Yun trusts the most, so Yan Yun let them all in, "This is the trebuchet I was telling you about yesterday. The team followed Zhengzheng to make gunpowder."

Deputy General Sun and the others hurriedly came forward when they heard the word "rock-throwing machine", but they didn't understand the blueprint, "My lord, the general will take people to make gunpowder right now, but this rock-throwing machine looks like It’s very simple, but does it really have that much effect?”

Knowing that some people would doubt it, Lin Qingxi said to them simply: "Don't look at the appearance of this stone trebuchet, which is very powerful. It only needs one point to throw a big heavy object. Wait until the stone trebuchet is done." After it’s done, you’ll see the effect.”

A few days later, the first trebuchet machine was ready. This kind of simple wooden trebuchet machine was made by using the principle of leverage. Yan Yun had someone try it with a stone first, and it flew hundreds of meters at once. , so shocked that everyone's jaws were about to drop to the ground.

"This...that's amazing!" Vice-General Sun and the soldiers in charge of the test all cheered. With this trebuchet, they can easily fight against Qixuan Kingdom.

Yan Yun thought that if the stone was turned into gunpowder, it would be more powerful, and the chances of Chu winning this war would be even greater.

After the stone throwing machine and gunpowder were successfully developed, they were quickly put into the second war launched by Qixuan Kingdom against the western border of Chu State. This time Wuxie used 100 million yuan to deal with the 30 Chu troops stationed in Tinghe. The main purpose is to snatch back Zhengzheng, the Holy Son.

Wu Xie never expected that the four elders of the Spirit Tribe would dispatch four elders to rescue Zhengzheng, and his witch power was greatly reduced, so he was no match for the four elders of the Spirit Race. Rely on the 500 million army in his hands.

But Wu Xie never expected that the gunpowder he was proud of was also experimented with by Chu State, and it was used to deal with his 100 million army. What made him even more unexpected was that Chu State also developed a new kind of gunpowder. Weapons, like a country boy playing with a slingshot, turned his warships into fireboats on the Ting River, and many soldiers were burned alive.
