Next chapter
After three days, Yi Xingchen, who had been waiting a little anxiously, weighed that the time was almost up, so he took three guards and went to the Alchemy Research Institute, waiting for the acceptance of the manufacturing results of the suspension motorcycle.
Although Yi Xingchen was a little anxious, his expectations were finally not disappointed. When Yi Xingchen arrived at the Alchemy Research Institute with the guards, he finally saw a hovering motorcycle exuding metal charm as he wished!
The combination of the manufacturing process of Blue Mercury and the skills of the alchemists of the otherworldly Xinghua Kingdom, coupled with the use of magical materials, is naturally not ordinary.
Yi Xingchen didn't alarm anyone, and in fact, he didn't mean to do so, because even he himself had been attracted all the attention by the levitating motorcycle in the middle of the levitation room.
But from the appearance, this suspension motorcycle, is not very special, if it is not for the addition of the suspension function, and the removal of two wheels, it is actually the same as the general motorcycle, the shape is not very different.
At this time, in the real yàn room, there was a group of alchemists who were still busy, they gathered around the hovering motorcycle, continuing their work at hand, Yi Xingchen didn't pay attention to what they were doing, and they didn't notice Yi Xingchen's arrival. Everyone present, including Yi Xingchen, seemed to be fascinated by the brand-new production in front of them.
It wasn't until Chekov turned his head and accidentally saw Yi Xingchen that he quickly put down what he was doing, walked over quickly, and saluted Yi Xingchen respectfully.
Yi Xingchen waved his hand to signal that Chekov didn't need to be polite, and then asked, "This is our hoverbike?"
Speaking of this, Chekov suddenly showed an extremely proud smile on his face, and replied: "Yes, this is our final result, please review it." ”
It is not difficult to see that Chekov attaches great importance and pride to the invention of the hovercraft, and this pride from the heart, even if he is not ordered by Yi Xingchen to be in charge of this project, does not affect his satisfaction with this collection of the latest technology products that can come from his own hands. You must know that as far as the eye can see, there is no possibility of any similar scientific and technological products on the entire Firmament Continent.
Yi Xingchen nodded with satisfaction, and looked up at the hovering motorcycle in mid-air again, and visually, this hovering motorcycle seemed to be ready for use. So, Yi Xingchen then asked, "Have you done any tests?"
"Yes, basically, except for the test drive, the main functional aspects of the test have been completed. Chekov replied.
Along with all the materials for researching the production of suò levitators, Yi Xingchen handed over to Chekov several test manuals. This is also what Yi Xingchen got from Blue Mercury, and asked Chekov to test the performance of the hovering motorcycle in accordance with the requirements of the test manual after developing the hovering motorcycle. These test manuals are the automobile test manual, the motorcycle test manual, and the aircraft test manual...... Yi Xingchen needed Chekov to complete all these tests to ensure that all the suspended motorcycles produced could be tested before they could be put into practical use.
Hearing what Chekov said, Yi Xingchen nodded, it seemed that the progress was very smooth, and as soon as the interest came, Yi Xingchen immediately said: "Very good!
Unexpectedly, just as Yi Xingchen was about to roll up his sleeves and go on the field, he was immediately stopped, it turned out to be Chekov, and he resolutely opposed Yi Xingchen personally coming to take charge of the test drive.
This made Yi Xingchen puzzled, and his interest in test driving was interrupted, which made him even more unhappy, and he asked dissatisfied: "Why?"
"There is danger. Chekov's face was resolute, as if there was still a little bit of implication to stop His Majesty's adventure no matter what. It was his serious and stern look that made Yi Xingchen stunned for a moment, and then he came back to his senses. Indeed, no matter how keen he is on the success of new products, he is still the emperor of a country after all, and he should not care about his own safety. What's more, although he is the emperor, if he insists on going his own way and insists on testing, the Imperial Cabinet may appear to stop him. In fact, before the Imperial Cabinet came out to stop this, the alchemists present also persuaded Yi Xingchen to give up the test drive in person when Chekov had just exited to stop it. The reason is that although the hovercraft has been successfully developed and passed a number of tests, as long as it does not complete all the tests in one day, the safety of this product cannot be 100% guaranteed, and naturally, it is impossible for His Majesty the Noble King to complete the tests.
Yi Xingchen also suddenly felt like he had been poured cold water, he realized his impulse, and seeing that everyone was resolutely opposed, he did not continue to insist on his opinion. Indeed, the hovercraft is not exactly the alchemy product of the alchemists, but only developed according to the design of Blue Mercury, which affects the confidence of the alchemists in a certain way, and they have some doubts about whether their imitation of Blue Mercury's technological products has extremely high security. Thrusters, in particular, were not sure of the safety of their products.
This kind of worry is not unfounded, after all, Yi Xingchen himself can't be sure whether the alchemist of the Xinghua Empire in another world will be able to complete this important task, after all, the scientific and technological level of the two worlds is very different, so Yi Xingchen obeyed their request.
Since you can't test drive yourself, watch others test drive.
After the alchemists completed the preparatory stage, several workers who had ridden motorcycles recruited by the Alchemy Research Institute in the Xinghua City Industrial Zone were arranged for a test drive.
After these workers in charge of the test took turns to test drive, the test of the test drive was completed, and the whole test process went very smoothly, and there were no unexpected things!
At this point, it can be said that this latest production of the hovering motorcycle has been tested and can be put into use!
Yi Xingchen, who witnessed the whole process, was of course extremely satisfied and excited about this result! At this moment, Yi Xingchen couldn't wait to drive the hoverbike again and have a good experience. However, Chekov and the others actually raised objections. The reason is that they believe that the hovering motorcycle is only the main part of the real yàn, and has not yet completed all the real yàn, and more support is needed to complete the development, so it is best to wait until the next hovering motorcycle appears, and also passes all the same kind of tests, and the current one can be really put into use.
Although this statement is different from Yi Xingchen's expectation, Yi Xingchen is not angry, anyway, according to the current situation, he can already be sure that the plan of the levitation motorcycle is feasible.
Another world, the Western Regions.
Lou Lan Country, Lou Lan Army Village.
At this time, Zhao Bai was very surprised, he never thought that Lou Lan people would take the initiative to give up their military village. This is not at all in line with the image of Lou Lan as a regional power.
Although Zhao Bai was very sure, the 5,000 people of Loulan Army Village were indeed easily destroyed. But it shouldn't scare Lou Languo, and he didn't dare to resist at all. Jin He in the Loulan military village actually led more than 5,000 people to withdraw from the military village and throw the military village to Zhao Bai and them.
"Investigate what's going on?" Zhao Bai commanded, as a leader, Zhao Bai liked the feeling of having things in his hands. Looking at the empty military village, Zhao Bai was not interested in settling in, he was worried that there were traps.
Before the results of the investigation appeared, Zhao Bai continued to lead the Xinghua army to destroy the economy of Lou Lan in Lou Lan Country.
Therefore, Zhao Bai led the Xinghua Expeditionary Force and set up cards everywhere to intercept the caravans.
Zhao Bai and the others thought simply, and directly drove the caravan north. Yes, Zhao Bai simply solicited customers directly to Anhua City. Any caravan that wants to be restocked, wants to resupply or monopolize goods, needs to go to Anhua City. If they refuse to go to the caravan in Anhua City, Zhao Bai and they will make a cameo appearance as a bandit.
Lou Lan Country, Lou Lan City.
King Lou Lan looked at Jin He with an angry face, and said: "You are really too rubbish, don't you know anything about command? Hiding in the military village, you can still lose about 5,000 people." ”
Jin He defended: "The enemy is too strong! The weapons in their hands came from the air and exploded directly among us, killing many soldiers at once, and they were completely unable to defend against it. ”
"You're making excuses for your actions!" another courtier, criticizing Jin He.
"I don't have to lie, and I'm willing to surrender my military power!" Jin He said.
When Lou Lanwang heard this, he was taken aback. He was strict with Jin He at the beginning, and scolded him, and his main goal was to beat Jin He. In fact, there are not many people who can fight in Lou Lan Country. Jin He's appearance has always been good, and Lou Lan Wang doesn't want to change his handsomeness.
"Resignation, put it aside for the time being. I need you to analyze where the enemy is coming from and what is the purpose of their arrival?" asked Lou Lan Wang.
"The origin of the enemy is still a mystery and needs to be excavated. They obviously don't want us to compensate for anything, but to make us submit. Jin He said helplessly.
King Lou Lan was a little unhappy, he didn't want to give in.
Jin He thought for a while and said, "We are starting to recruit soldiers, and we need more soldiers to deal with the upcoming big war." ”
Jin He is very anxious, and he is not optimistic about Lou Lanjun at all.
"Your Majesty the King, I am willing to lead the army to destroy the enemy!" There was a general, a general named Mingyu, who took the initiative to ask Ying, wanting to go out to find the Xinghua Expeditionary Force and destroy the Expeditionary Force.
"No!" Jin He subconsciously objected.
"Why?" asked Lou Lanwang.
"Before finding the enemy's flaws, the blue army of Chenjian Yìlou must not act rashly!" Jin He said.
"Qi Yu Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Jin He is afraid of war! Lou Blue Cavalry, strong and powerful, has been rampant in the Western Regions. In the Western Regions, there is no country that dares to face our Blue Cavalry without being afraid. Mingyu, who wanted to lead the army before, said.
King Lou Lan hesitated, Jin He was not only the general of Lou Lan Kingdom, he was also a relative of King Lou Lan.
However, after all, King Lou Lan had never been to the war and did not know the situation.
King Lou Lan stepped down from Jin He's position and ordered him to take charge of Lou Lan City's safety. And, order the generals, lead the Lou Lan army out of the city, look for opportunities, and destroy the enemy.
In addition to this, King Lou Lan also sent envoys to visit the surrounding countries and ask them to form an alliance with Lou Lan Kingdom. At the very least, these countries can't help the enemies of Lou Lan Country.
Of course, King Lou Lan also doubted that the enemy was an army formed by the surrounding countries to fight against Lou Languo.
Mingyu led a cavalry army of 6,000 people out of Loulan City, and searched nearby for several days, but did not find the enemy. He was worried that if he was too far away from Lou Lan City, the enemy army would take advantage of it.
Because of Mingyu's conservative strategy, the Xinghua army set up a checkpoint on the border of Loulan Country and blocked many caravans from entering Loulan City. Under the persuasion of the Xinghua army, most of the small caravans chose to go to Anhua City. Even some big caravans were forced to leave Lou Lan City and go to Anhua City. Or take Guò Anhua City and head to the East.
On the border of Loulan Country, a caravan of 1,000 people is slowly entering the territory of Loulan Country.
More than 500 cavalrymen of the Xinghua Expeditionary Force spotted them and immediately surrounded them.
"No way!"
The entire caravan was taken aback, and the caravan began martial law.
"Who are you, and why are you blocking our way?" the caravan steward apparently regarded the Xinghua Army as bandits.
"We are the army of Anhua City, and we are at war with Lou Lan Kingdom. If you enter Lou Blue City, we will see us as enemies. ”
The Xinghua army told the location of Anhua City, but the caravan steward was a little uneasy, and they were reluctant to take a detour.
When the caravan steward heard this, he insisted on going to Lou Lan City.
The Xinghua Army repeatedly warned and opened fire.
After a while, the caravan's escort, swept by the Xinghua army, suffered too many losses and could not stand it anymore, so they surrendered.
"We are willing to change direction and go to Anhua City. ”
When the Xinghua army saw that the caravan had yielded, they spared them.
Actually, Zhao Bai was not worried at all, if he hated the caravan, they would resent Anhua City. Zhao Bai was very confident that when the caravans in the Western Regions benefited from Anhua City, they would accept the status of Anhua City. No one wants to fight against money!
With the blockade of the Xinghua Army, fewer and fewer foreign caravans entered Lou Lan City. There are more and more foreign caravans in Anhua City, and Lou Lan City is becoming more and more deserted.
Ming Yu of Loulan Country led 6,000 cavalry to expand the search area, and finally found the Xinghua Expeditionary Force camp in a place not far from Loulan Army Village.
"General, we have found the enemy!" Mingyu's army soldiers, reporting to him, they have discovered the Xinghua army.
"According to the original plan, inform the king that his majesty will send troops to encircle and suppress the enemy army. Mingyu ordered the herald to send the news back to the city in order to cooperate with the encirclement and suppression.
When Zhao Bai saw the enemy army arriving, he sent a message to inform the soldiers of the team that was going out and came back to assemble.
"Preliminary estimates put the number of enemy troops at around a thousand. "An experienced petty officer, reporting his findings to Mingyu.
"Jin He told us that the enemy army was about 3,000 people or more. Sure enough, he was exaggerating the numbers. Mingyu said dissatisfied. He was sure that six thousand cavalry would be enough to wipe out the temporary camp of the Xinghua army.
Whether General Jin He's words are true or false, the junior officer doesn't know, he won't speak for the people his general hates, and stands silently to listen to orders
