After transporting a box of bombs to the grassland, the Jinyi guard quickly brought in some cattle and sheep wrapped in armor and took them as test subjects.

At this time, Lu Chen took out a two- or three-kilogram iron ball bomb from the box and glanced at the ignition rope at the tail of the iron ball.

Today's bombs do not have a primer and need to be manually ignited, and this kind of bomb is very susceptible to moisture, and once it gets wet, it is likely to be unusable.

However, this is the first batch of bombs, and it will be used as soon as it is ready, and he believes that in the future it will be possible to make a primer bomb.

At this time, Wu Yuan reminded on the side: "Lord Wang, the craftsmen said that this is a bomb made of the simplest gunpowder, and the power may not meet your psychological expectations. ”

The gunpowder blueprint given to Lu Chen by the system is not only one, but there is a large stack, and there are more than ten types of gunpowder.

Several of these gunpowders are unconfigurable under current conditions.

Although the craftsmen of Dayu City are more brainy than those craftsmen of Daxia, they do not have modern chemical knowledge after all, and there are some things that they can't understand at all, even if the drawings are given to them, they can't understand them for a while.

Hearing Wu Yuan say the simplest gunpowder, Lu Chen instantly guessed in his heart that these bombs were probably filled with black powder.

Black powder is black powder, and it's not that it can't be used.

Lu Chen said at this time: "It's okay, I will use it." ”

At this time, Wu Yuan immediately took out a fire fold and handed it to Lu Chen's hand, Lu Chen did not hesitate at all, directly lit the fire rope of the bomb, and then threw the bomb into the war simulation scene arranged in the distance.

After all, it was a bomb with an arquebus, and the bomb did not explode immediately, but after a while, it exploded with a "boom".

Hearing this deafening sound, and then seeing the blood-soaked cattle and sheep that were blown up in the distance, Xiao Pengtian was so frightened that his body trembled, and his mind suddenly appeared in the scene of the barbarian soldiers in the Wanning River Valley being blown up by grenades.

After the bomb exploded, a large amount of white smoke was produced.

Seeing that there was so much white smoke, Lu Chen knew that the power was not very good.

He then stepped forward to check.

And the crowd hastened to follow.

After waiting for the corpses of those cattle and sheep, Lu Chen found that after the bomb exploded just now, the fragments that flew out of the explosion directly penetrated those armors.

However, there were not too many craters left on the ground, and a grenade of the same weight could definitely leave a large crater in the ground, and the three-kilogram bomb he recognized just now only blew up a small pit on the ground, and the area was not very large.

Of course, they didn't use this weapon to blow up the crater, as long as the fragments inside flew out after the explosion, there was no problem in effectively killing and injuring the enemy.

As for whether the bombed pit is large or not, there is no need to think about it.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen said: "Well, the power is good, when the army of the King of Beixian arrives, we will test the power of this first batch of bombs." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Pengtian not only began to sympathize with Beixian Wanglai.

It's not good to provoke anyone, come to provoke the king of the north, isn't this looking for death.

The key is that their Heavenly Wolf King tribe only planted a heel in Beijun not long ago, but as a result, the Beixian King did not learn his lesson, and even went south to attack Beijun in winter.

Xiao Pengtian seemed to have seen the final outcome of King Beixian at this time.

He couldn't help but sigh a little, it seems that another grassland tribe is about to disappear, and it is estimated that the entire northern land will belong to the king of the north in the future.

At this time, a brocade guard soldier came to Lu Chen, holding a bamboo tube for transmitting a message and handed it to Lu Chen, "Lord Wang, the information of the capital." ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately took the bamboo tube in the hands of the Jinyi Guard, then took out the information from it, and then looked at it seriously.

After reading the information from the capital, Lu Chen snorted, fortunately their reaction was relatively fast, those families really wanted to send him to the front line to fight Dawu, and then give him all the heavy cavalry in Beijun.

If it weren't for the King of Beixian going south, he might really not be able to make excuses.

At this time, the Jinyi guard soldier who sent the information said: "Lord Wang, the 20,000 troops sent by the imperial court have now arrived in Beijun, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Tianguang City in less than ten days. ”

Lu Chen said in surprise: "So fast? ”

The soldier replied, "When my subordinates set out with them in the capital, they only brought some supplies, and the 20,000 soldiers were cavalry. ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen fell silent, it was obvious that the imperial court did not plan to send troops to help Beijun resist the attack of the King of Beixian, after all, he still had 50,000 heavy cavalry in his hands, and it was normal for them not to want to send troops.

But then again, the imperial court was able to transport some supplies over, which can be regarded as a little help, anyway, Beijun is also poor, there is a shortage of everything, and mosquito meat is also meat.

At this time, Xiao Pengtian reminded on the side: "Lord Wang, if you let the imperial army come to Tianguang City, won't these weapons be exposed at that time?" ”

According to Xiao Pengtian's understanding, at present, in the entire Great Xia, it seems that only the Northern King has this terrifying killing weapon in his hands, and it is obvious that the Northern King also has his own careful thoughts, and it is impossible for him to hand over these weapons to the Great Xia Imperial Court.

Hearing Xiao Pengtian's reminder, Lu Chen thought about it.

The army of the imperial court was indeed a nuisance.

It will take at least a month before the army of the King of Beixian arrives in Beijun, and if there is any danger on the way, such as a severe snowstorm, the army of the King of Beixian will be able to reach Beijun even later.

If the imperial army had come to Tianguang City before the war, wouldn't the soldiers of Beijun use these bombs against the army of King Beixian when the time comes, wouldn't it have exposed the secrets of Beijun?

Lu Chen actually thought at first that the imperial court would use the outbreak of war with Dawu as an excuse, and then refused to send troops to support Beijun, but he didn't expect that the imperial court finally symbolically sent 20,000 cavalry over.

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen said to the Jinyi guard soldier who delivered the letter in front of him: "Go to Yancheng immediately, tell Qin Yushan and Li Rui, find a way to leave the 20,000 troops of the imperial court in Yancheng, and let the imperial army guard the second line, and don't use it in Tianguang City." ”

Lin Xiuming, the son of Zuo Xiang, sent by the imperial court this time, Lin Xiuming is a smart man, after Lin Xiuming came to Beijun last time, he was more honest and had been controlling the 70,000 soldiers of the imperial court, preventing them from running around.

It can be seen that Lin Xiuming obviously doesn't want to have a conflict with him, the king of the north.

Lu Chen believed that when Lin Xiuming heard that he asked him to stay in Yancheng, he should understand what his purpose was, and Lin Xiuming would most likely stay in Yancheng obediently in order not to conflict with him.

Their war with the King of Beixian was not inferior to the 20,000 light cavalry of the imperial court.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, the messenger immediately said, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”

"Okay, you hurry up and go back to Yancheng."

"The subordinates retired." The soldier's voice fell, and he turned and left quickly.

At this time, Lu Chen was about to turn around and leave, when Wu Yuan opened his mouth and said, "Lord Wang, these weapons don't have names yet, why don't you give them a name?" ”

Hearing Wu Yuan's proposal, Lu Chen thought for a moment, and then said: "Our enemies often mistakenly think that we can summon heavenly thunder, so in the future, these bombs will be collectively called the Heavenly Thunder." ”

"Okay, that's all for today's test, pull these thunderbolts to the armory, pay attention to moisture."

The power of this batch of bombs made Lu Chen feel very satisfied, he felt that there was no need to test too much, and then he only needed to wait for the arrival of the Beixian King, he believed that the Beixian King would definitely be moved to tears because of the surprise he prepared.
