Yin Guoding looked at Ma Xianglin, who was eager to try, and had the intention to refuse, but he was embarrassed.

"General Ma, the number of grenades brought this time is not large, and you can only throw one."

"Good, good!" Ma Xianglin nodded again and again in agreement, rubbed his hands excitedly, took a grenade, and looked left and right.

"What's in there? How can it be so powerful? ”

"Brother Ma, don't you want to ask." Mu Tianbo said.

"Curious, curious." Ma Xianglin nodded curtly, and then opened the grenade with the help of Yin Guoding and threw it out.

After Ma Xianglin finished throwing it, he ran to Qin Liangyu with satisfaction.

"Mother, would you like to give it a try?"

"I'll forget it." Qin Liangyu shook his head with a smile and looked at Yin Guoding. "Yin Qianhu, how many grenades did you bring this time?"

"There are not many of them, only two thousand."

"Two thousand? It's enough. ”

After several people said this, they returned to the place where the materials were stacked again, and Qin Liangyu opened his mouth and asked:

"What's in the other boxes?"

"Haha! General Qin, don't look at this grenade is very powerful, other things are even more amazing. Yin Guoding smiled, and then opened a box.

"It's a flintlock pistol! You don't need an arquebus to shoot! A thousand in total! There are also matching bullets. ”

"This is a new type of mine! The power is also huge, and the various types add up to a total of 1,000 pieces. ”

"It's medicine! There are hemostasis and anti-inflammatory, a total of ten boxes. ”

"It's canned, it's fish, it's pork, it's chicken, and here's... Well? It is also made of pork. Yin Guoding coughed dryly, and quickly put down the can in his hand.

My mother, why is there still beef?

"But we came in a hurry, and we only brought a hundred boxes, and nine hundred boxes were with the grain caravan. Including this compressed biscuit too. These two things are easy to carry and delicious to eat. Soldiers can eat it when they are on special missions. ”

Yin Guoding explained the quantity and function of each item in detail, and Qin Liangyu was attracted by his words with emotion.

"Yin Qianhu, there is still food transported?"

"Yes, General Qin. His Majesty has allocated 500,000 stone of grain, but the transportation speed is slow, and it is still on the way, and it is estimated that it will take some time. ”

"500,000 stones?"

"That's right! Your Majesty said, let go of eating. Not enough to speak! ”

Yin Guoding's words brought a great shock to several people.

Is the imperial court so rich?

"Yin Qianhu, do the soldiers of Mu Wangfu have a share of these materials?" Mu Tianbo suddenly thought of such a question.

"Grandpa, Your Majesty said that these supplies are all for General Qin. As for how to distribute it, it depends on General Qin's intentions. Yin Guoding said a clean sentence.

Mu Tianbo listened, and set his eyes on Qin Liangyu, with that pitiful expression, Ma Xianglin on the side almost couldn't help laughing.

"Grandpa, whether it is the soldiers of Mu Wangfu or my soldiers, they are all serving Your Majesty. These foods and medicines will certainly be used on them. But these weapons must be approved by His Majesty, and I dare not make decisions on my own. ”

"That's nature." Mu Tianbo nodded, indicating understanding.

Seeing this, Qin Liangyu didn't say anything anymore. An order was given to Ma Xianglin.

"Xianglin, you go and gather 200 pitchers with strong arms to practice throwing grenades."

Now that there is a grenade as a big killer, there is naturally no need to continue the siege, and the sooner the battle is over, the sooner the rebellion can be quelled, which is a good thing for both the people and the soldiers.

"Mother, there are only so many grenades in this hand, I'm afraid it won't be practiced many times before they are gone."

"That's right, then replace it with a stone that weighs about the same weight as a grenade."

"Yes. Mother! ”

Ma Xianglin's actions were very fast, and he soon dispatched 200 white-pole soldiers with strong arms and good at archery.

"General, what are you doing when you pull us out and give one stone to each person?" A leader held a stone in his hand and asked Ma Xianglin suspiciously.

"Throwing stones." Ma Xianglin said with a mysterious smile.

"Throwing stones?"

Everyone was stunned, marching to fight and throwing stones. What kind of play is this?

"Do you see the row of trees in front of you? All you have to do is throw the stone in your hand to the treetops and hit the plank tied to it. ”

Ma Xianglin casually threw the stone out and made a demonstration, but sure enough, he didn't hit.

"Who's going to try it first?"

"I'll come first, I have a lot of strength." The leader who had just been questioned volunteered to stand up, and in his opinion, there was nothing difficult about throwing a stone. He threw the stone in his hand towards the treetops with all his might, but with so much force that the stone went straight over the treetops without even touching a leaf.

"General, let me try again." The leader smiled awkwardly and asked for another face-saving attempt.

Ma Xianglin spread his hands, with a light expression.

The leader once again picked up a stone and threw it at the plank, this time with less strength, but he didn't even reach the height of the plank.

He didn't believe in evil, and tried several more times, but the result was either high or low, and he didn't hit once.

Ma Xianglin shook his head.

If this is a grenade, it is better to throw it into the city wall if it has more strength. If it is smashed on the city wall and hung below, it is enough for the besieging soldiers to drink a pot.

Thinking of this, Ma Xianglin's face was solemn, and he shouted:

"Listen, everybody! Let you throw stones for the purpose of throwing stones! Don't take it seriously one by one. I'll be here with you for the next two days! If there is one who dares not to train seriously, it will be dealt with by military law! Did you hear that!? ”

"I heard you!" The discipline of the white pole soldiers was excellent, and when he saw Ma Xianglin's serious face, he immediately became serious.

For the next two days, in addition to eating and sleeping, they were all in contact with each other by a wooded area outside the city to throw stones. As time went on, their throws became more and more accurate. Although it can't be called a hundred shots, it is really enough. After all, the walls are too wide to plank!

In the afternoon of the next day, Ma Xianglin finally took out the grenade after seeing that everyone was very skilled.

"Next! Keep your eyes wide and don't let go of any of my movements. Because it will be your net worth and life, and if something goes wrong, you will have to be disabled if you don't die! Do you understand? ”

"Got it!"

The two hundred future throwers replied neatly, and Ma Xianglin nodded in satisfaction.

"This one is called a grenade! It is a weapon that can explode when thrown, and it is made on the basis of the Heaven-Shaking Thunder. But it is extremely powerful, and when you use it, first open the metal cover underneath, and then pull the rope out. When using it, just pull it hard and throw it at the target! ”

"Fain is boom!" Ma Xianglin threw the grenade out.

And down all of them lay down.

Rumble!

The grenade made a loud explosion.

"I think everybody has figured it out. This thing is very simple to operate, just throw it on the city wall during the siege. But if you don't throw it correctly, you throw the grenade next to your companion, and think about the consequences. Okay, get in line. Come one by one. You can only practice twice per person! ”

Under the guidance of Ma Xianglin, 200 throwers threw two grenades, and by the time they had all gone through, it was already dark.

Ma Xianglin reported the practice to Qin Liangyu, and Qin Liangyu nodded.

"The order goes down early tomorrow morning. Besiege! Take down the stone screen! ”

"Yes, Mother!"

Ma Xianglin's mood was agitated, and after holding back for so many days, he will finally be able to capture this Shiping City tomorrow.

Inside the city, Pu Mingsheng and others were standing at the head of the city on the south side and looking out.

"Qin Liangyu, what are they doing? It's been a rumbling afternoon. Fireworks? ”

"You think, you set off fireworks when you fight? Besides, you set off fireworks during the day? ”

"What's going on?"

"Who knows. Regardless of them, eat and go. Since he couldn't see the reason, Sha Yuan turned around and walked down the city wall.

It's been almost ten days, and I guess the reinforcements are almost on the way.

Early the next morning.

Pu Ming, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the soldiers.

"Sir! The soldiers outside the city are gathering, looking at the posture and wanting to attack the city! ”

"What? Are they crazy? ”

Pu Mingsheng immediately got up from the bed and put on his clothes in a panic.

When he came to the city wall, he saw that the other party was sorting out the formation.

"Lao Pu, what's going on?"

"I don't know. Could it be that you have nothing to eat and want to make a last stand? ”

"It's unlikely, didn't you go into the mountains to hunt the day before yesterday?"

"That's not clear. In any case, let the people below guard their respective areas of responsibility, especially the city wall on the south side, Qin Liangyu will definitely attack from the south! ”

Under the orders of Sha Yuan and others, they reached the city walls, and the soldiers quickly assembled and waited for them.

The offensive has begun!
