After this explosion, Chen Chen finally figured out the performance of the cannon produced at this stage.

You can only fight once, and then wait for the cooling to continue fighting, which is really a bit of a waste, and the shortcomings are too great, but fortunately, the productivity of Dongshui is greatly improved than before, so with the support of finance, dozens of cannons have been produced in one go, ready to make up for the shortcomings of quality with quantity.

"Lord, look at it, it's all according to your will." The body was almost nourished, and Chen Chen, accompanied by officials, personally watched the latest production of cannons.

Chen Chen nodded with satisfaction: "Well, I will continue to produce cannons and increase productivity recently." ”

After another inspection, Chen Chen was about to leave the factory, and as soon as he walked to the door, a spherical macaroni lump attracted his attention.

"Who made this thing?" Chen Chen picked up that thing, and the more he looked at it, the more he couldn't put it down, because he thought of another weapon - a mine.

Since the production and use of cannons are extremely luxurious, then mines are much simpler, and mines are also considered lethal weapons, if a large number of mines are created and buried in the path of the enemy cavalry, then they can also kill the enemy, and even change the tide of battle.

Although mines play a small role in modern warfare, because the lethality is too small, and at the same time there are sappers to clear mines, but here it is different, after all, the cavalry formation is dense, and it is not difficult to solve a dozen people with a mine.

"Lord Wang, it was made by the grass people to play with the dolls, and the prince atoned for his sins." A middle-aged craftsman was quickly approached, and when he saw the thing in Chen Chen's hand, he quickly knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Chen Chen shook his head, and hurriedly helped the master up and smiled slightly: "No, master, you have done a good job, this king appreciates it very much, you hurry up and make more models like this, the more the better, do you know?" Well done, this king is rewarded. ”

The master was stunned, why does the prince also like children's toys?

The official hurriedly pushed the craftsman: "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you go to work soon, didn't you hear what the prince said? ”

"Yes, my lord, my lord." The master said yes and left quickly.

Chen Chen nodded with satisfaction, left the factory with the people, and ran to the barracks.

As soon as they entered the barracks, they saw that Commander Wei and Chen Cheng were explaining some precautions to the soldiers on how to use the cannon, so Chen Chen did not disturb them, and sat alone in the big account of the Chinese army and looked at the map in his hand.

The map showed a map of the surroundings of Shengzhou, and Chen Chen carefully chose the place where the battle would start. This time the war must have been done with real swords and guns, and the enemy facing it was the Four-Nation Alliance, so the location must be occupied.

Just when Chen Chen was worried about the formation, a soldier reported: "Lord Wang, General Yang Cheng has returned from Lushui Island, does Lord Wang want to see him?" ”

"Huh? Finally came, let him in. When the news of the four countries was released, Chen Chen had already sent someone to transfer Yang Cheng, but he didn't expect to come back at this time.

Yang Cheng quickly walked in and saw Chen Chen kneeling on one knee: "The last general will knock on the prince Chitose." ”

Chen Chen nodded and asked, "Get up, General Yang, how is Lushui Island, why did you rush over at this time?" ”

Yang Cheng replied solemnly: "Lord Wang, the last general was ordered to go to Green Water Island, but it turned out that Green Water Island was occupied, and then it was recaptured through war. After the last general led his people to land on the island, he found a hole in a place, and sent people down to explore but there was no movement, and the soldiers disappeared. ”

Listening to General Yang's description, Chen Chen's pupils shrank: "What did you say?" An unknown pothole, the soldier went down and there was no movement? ”

"Yes, lord." Yang Cheng nodded solemnly, and a few fears flashed across his face.

Listening to Yang Cheng's description, Chen Chen couldn't sit still all of a sudden, the unknown pothole, there was no movement after the person went down.

Suppressing the curiosity and shock in his heart, Chen Chen waved his hand: "Okay, it's okay, the king of that pit will personally explore it when the time comes, now is not the time to discuss the pit, now the four countries are about to attack, this time you came back just in time, when the time comes, lead the army to fight the enemy together, now you go to Commander Wei and Chen Cheng to learn about the information." ”

Yang Cheng agreed and quickly left the Chinese army.

"There are potholes on Dongshui Island?" I don't know why, Chen Chen couldn't help but think of the first traverser, the Xinglong High Priest.

The high priest made his fortune in Xinglong, and the main location of Xinglong was concentrated on the Dongshui Peninsula and the islands, so does this pit have anything to do with the high priest?

Thinking of this, Chen Chen hurriedly took out his notebook and began to flip through them one by one from beginning to end.

"The word hole has the meaning of pit, cave, and it should be that." Chen Chen made a slight judgment and looked at the small English text carefully:

I was exploring the gold mine on Green Water Island in the hope of solving the financial crisis, and during the exploration I found a place, I thought it was a gold mine and ordered someone to dig it, but in the process of digging, the soil suddenly loosened, and a hole suddenly appeared, and several soldiers who were digging the soil fell directly.

I never thought that this was the result, I sent people to fall down with a rope, but I didn't think that the cave was so deep, it seemed to be a man-made hole, or a natural hole, and none of the soldiers who went down came up alive, and I never let people go down again.

Twenty-six years of prosperity

After reading this text, Chen Chen was also taken aback, obviously the high priest didn't know what this cave was for, it seemed that he was the only one who would go to Green Water Island in the future to do more research.

Shaking his head and shaking off the doubts in his heart, Chen Chen immediately summoned the generals and began to discuss the strategy of facing the enemy this time.

The drum sounded three times, and all the officers gathered in the army's big account, and Chen Chen sat firmly in the Chinese army and watched everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone has seen that this time our enemy is the Four-Power Alliance composed of Nanzhao, Western Chu, Western Qi and Chen, and this war will come sooner or later, so don't have any psychological baggage or complaints. If a country and nation are strong, it will inevitably be hindered by external forces, and Chen Guo and other countries are the forces that hinder our strength and progress in Dongshui, and if we want to be strong, we must cross them, do you understand? Soldiers, put away your slackness and give this king a definite answer. ”

Everyone listened carefully to Chen Chen's words, and the sense of pride and belonging in their hearts was ignited, and they all shouted in unison: "Lord Wang, we understand that we will do our best to kill the enemy, defend Dongshui, and realize the strength of Dongshui." ”

Chen Chen stood up from the chair violently, holding the high priest's notebook in his left hand, and holding the token of the Chinese army in his right hand and cheering loudly: "Soldiers, everyone knows that we are all from all over the world, some of us here are from the Chen State, and some of us are from Nanzhao or Qi Chu, but now we live together in the sacred land of Dongshui, we have the responsibility to guard it and protect it, and tell this king, do you have the confidence to protect our homeland." ”

Everyone hurriedly stood up and shouted: "Lord Wang, we have the confidence to participate in the battle and defend the country. ”

Chen Chen saw that the atmosphere was sensational enough, so he also stopped building momentum and began to assign combat tasks to prepare to lead the army to the battlefield in advance and deploy troops.
