207 Gaining momentum (2)
At the moment when the iron fireball hit the mountain, a corner of the mountain was directly cut off, and countless large stones rolled down, and even where they were standing, it seemed that the ground trembled a few times, which showed its great power, and everyone was stunned.
"Wow, good guy, that's great, why is it so fierce." Alam was amazed and couldn't believe it.
"This fire, fire or something is so good, use it to attack Danyang City, and it can be razed to the ground in an instant." General Kutulu praised.
Tuoba Yan was also taken aback, and looked at the black smoke mountain in the distance in shock, this power, even the stone mountain can be shattered, if you attack people, won't you be crushed into powder?
Qin Luo opened his mouth, almost bursting into tears, he didn't expect that the current Chu State would be able to invent such a powerful weapon. But why, General Feng, they still don't use it?
"Why didn't you Chu use artillery?" Tuoba Yan raised the question in Qin Luo's heart.
The craftsman explained: "The artillery sent over this time is the latest. The previous ones, which were prone to squibs, did not send them out, and injured themselves. When our old emperor heard about it, he was afraid that something would happen, so he didn't let * continue to make it. β
"Your little emperor, now agree with your development*?" Tuoba asked.
"Yes, the national capital is about to be destroyed, what if you don't do it again." The craftsman muttered, and suddenly remembered that this was Xiang Qiang Khan, who killed people without blinking, and hurriedly changed his words, "Hehehe, today's saint is enlightened, and only then can he continue to work." β
Indeed, the old emperor of Da Chu looked forward and backward, which led to the disaster of Da Chu almost destroying the country.
When Qin Luo translated, he naturally helped them cover up the previous sentence. Tuoba said coldly, "But the last time you fought with us, it was useless. I sent us a batch to see how effective the actual combat was, even if he was killed by a squib, he was Xiang Qiang's person. β
Qin Luo was embarrassed, he had already guessed Da Chu's thoughts, the rulers were too cautious, I was afraid that for a while, they would not use artillery in war.
The craftsman was not angry when he heard this, but admitted very honestly: "Yes, out of ten cannons, there may be two or three squibs. And some artillery sometimes works, sometimes it doesn't. God can't guarantee that there will be a spirit on the battlefield. We can only rely on luck, and if the spirit is not spiritual, it depends on the will of God. β
General Kutulu hesitated a little when he heard this, and he asked, "Khan, do we still want more?" β
"Yes, why not." Tuoba waved his hand domineeringly and said to the craftsman, "I want twenty doors first, when can you give them?" β
"Oops, twenty, that's a lot." The craftsman said, "* Ten guns will be given, two guns have already been delivered, and the rest will be delivered in a while." β
"Ten doors, just ten doors." Tuoba Yan thought to himself, as for the ancient city wall of Danyang City, which is unknown for hundreds of years, I am afraid that it will collapse if the artillery is fired casually.
After the artillery display was completed, Qin Luo sent a few craftsmen down to rest, and then discussed with Jimmy about arranging for them to stay in Xiangqiang for a long time. These craftsmen have only taught them how to use artillery, as well as firearms such as arrows, but they have not yet figured it out.
Qin Luo led several craftsmen to live in a large tent, and Jimmy called a few female slaves to take care of the guests' daily life during this time. The leading craftsman waved his hand again and again, "We are just rough workers, and we can't afford to be so hospitable by the Khan." β
Qin Luo said with a smile: "Although Xiang Qiang is vulgar, there are still rules for entertaining guests. Dare to ask the eldest brother, what do you call it? β
The leading craftsman said: "Big brother doesn't dare to be, my surname is Zou, and everyone calls me Lao Zou." β
Qin Luo arched his hand and said, "Craftsman Zou, thank you for leading everyone and taking the risk to send this batch of weapons, for Qingyun, these firearms are too important." β
"Hahaha, your lordship is polite." Craftsman Zou glanced at Qin Luo a few times, "My lord, your Chu dialect is really good, are you from Chu?" β
Qin Luo is now serving Xiang Qiang, and he has been exposed to the sun all year round, and his skin is darker than before, except that he looks more delicate, which is very similar to Xiang Qiang.
Qin Luo said calmly: "In Xia Qin Luo, he is indeed from the Chu State. β
Some of the people present knew about Qin Luo's treason, and some had never heard of Qin Luo's name. Craftsman Zou belonged to the kind of people who had never heard of it, and he wondered: "Then why are you in Xiangqiang?" β
"In the year the country broke, he was unfortunately captured." Qin Luo said lightly, "The Khan appreciated me, so he let me stay by his side." β
"Huh." Someone present laughed, "Whether it was Khan's appreciation or Mao Sui's self-recommendation, who knows?" β
Craftsman Zou glared at the person who spoke, and Qin Luo's face did not change at all, he had already heard too many gossip in the Chu State.
Craftsman Zou haha: "We are all rough people, and we don't understand the major affairs between countries. Lord Qin, forgive me. β
"It doesn't matter." Qin Luo smiled, "I think that Craftsman Zou is a reasonable person." Now that Xiang Qiang and Chu are living in harmony, we also abandon our previous suspicions and do our errands. β
Qin Luo said this to the hearts of everyone present, they were originally the lowest craftsmen in the industry, and they suddenly ordered them to send artillery to the grassland, and asked them to teach Xiang Qiang how to use artillery. Although the Zou craftsmen were confused, they did not dare to disobey the orders of the official.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Craftsman Zou hurriedly agreed. No matter what he does, he just wants to complete the task as soon as possible and return to Chu as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Tuoba Yan asked Alep to select fifty soldiers from the army who were strong in learning ability and easy to learn, and secretly trained them to use firearms, and in the future in the siege battle, these people would be the backbone of the success or failure of the entire battle, and even the survival of the Qingyun Tribe.
Alam took the order and left, and Tuoba Yan summoned Tuoba Ling alone. Tuoba Ling had long known that they had gone to see the artillery, and after entering the account, he asked directly: "How are the firearms in the Central Plains?" β
"It's unexpected, it's chilling." Tuoba Yan still had sweat on his back, "If they are used against us, the consequences will be unimaginable." β
Tuoba Ling had been studying the culture of the Central Plains, and now he was even more in awe, and he pondered: "Can we steal the artillery technology, so that we Xiang Qiang can also have our own artillery." β
"Is this possible?" Tuoba Yan hesitated.
"*It's easy to make, just know how much material you use." Tuoba Ling said, "You can call those craftsmen and ask them." β
"Even if we get the cheats of *, we won't be able to make such a powerful artillery." Tuoba Yan remembered the black and swarthy barrel of artillery, and their blacksmith may not be able to forge it.
"There's nothing you can't make." Tuoba Ling didn't believe in evil, he said confidently, "Khan, let me go to entertain the original craftsmen in the middle of the year, first set up a clichΓ©, and if I can't get it, I have to torture to extract a confession." β
Naturally, Tuoba wanted to make such a powerful weapon, so he nodded in agreement.
