- This valley looks a bit inconspicuous from the outside, but the further you go in, the larger the space becomes.
Especially the east and west sides, it feels like it must be at least seven or eight miles wide.
After entering the valley, the first thing you see is a huge chimney.
The chimney is still emitting black smoke, and hundreds of craftsmen are still working nervously there. It is not clear what they are busy with.
Under the leadership of Hu Yancang, they arrived at a simple shed. Under the simple wooden shed, three behemoths were covered with red cloth.
¡°Have these things been tested before?¡±
Princess Yana¡¯s curiosity did not last long, Liu Deng stepped forward and pulled off a piece of red cloth.
A huge, iron pipe-like thing appeared in front of him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we have tried it more than a dozen times before, and so far there has been no damage. These craftsmen from the palace do have some tricks up their sleeves!"
These craftsmen in the palace have been practicing this craft for generations.
After they joined, it was indeed an eye-opener for Hu Yancang and the others.
"Then let's give it a try! Let them prepare a target!"
Liu Deng suddenly became energetic.
"No!"
The two of them responded and immediately went down to prepare.
This was originally a testing ground, so preparations were made very quickly.
In a short time, soldiers immediately took out dozens of cattle and sheep from the nearby cave. After tying them to wooden stakes, they began to work nervously on them.
"Your Majesty, in order to test the power of this thing, this is the armor we specially prepared for those cattle and sheep. Its strength is comparable to the plate armor worn by our soldiers!"
Looking at Liu Deng¡¯s confused eyes, Hu Yancang said quickly.
"You are well prepared, just do what you prepared!"
Liu Deng is deeply impressed by the fact that professional matters should be left to professionals.
"Your Majesty, just take a look!"
Their previous experiments should have given them enough confidence, so at this time Hu Yancang is very confident and calm.
After the soldiers over there were ready, Hu Yancang pulled Liu Deng back to a safe area.
Princess Yana looked at these Han people very curiously, really not understanding what they were doing.
It¡¯s just that, after all, she has been practicing archery since she was a child, so her eyesight is naturally much better than Liu Deng¡¯s.
She had discovered before that the soldiers were all carrying iron protective gear, but she didn't expect that they actually put these things on the bodies of cattle and sheep.
But if you estimate the distance, from the position of the iron pipe to the position of the cattle and sheep, the distance is already far more than two thousand steps.
Can they really hit that far?
"let's start!"
After everything was ready, Liu Deng waved his hand and said.
"No!"
As Hu Yancang spoke, he immediately waved the flag in his hand.
After receiving the order, the two craftsmen charged and loaded the bomb very skillfully, lit the fuse with a torch, and ran back without their lives.
"Cover your ears and open your mouth, if you don't want to be deaf for the rest of your life!"
Looking at Princess Yana standing next to him with a confused look on her face, Liu Deng covered his ears and said.
Princess Yana originally wanted to refute him, but in the middle of her words, after seeing everyone acting like this, she immediately followed suit.
"Boom¡ª¡ª"
She had just covered her ears when she heard a sound like thunder.
This sound was already loud, and since they were in a valley at the moment, it seemed even more ridiculously strong.
"bingo!"
Looking at the flag message coming back from the distance, Hu Yancang said excitedly.
¡°Go over and have a look!¡±
Liu Deng also regained his energy.
"No!"
Someone immediately brought in several horses, and without exception, the ears of these horses were all blocked.
Liu Deng didn¡¯t make a fuss, after all, this was not the first time this happened.
Princess Yana's body was shaking violently. She could hardly believe her eyes. She walked more than 2,500 steps??
The weapons of the Han people can actually attack more than two thousand steps!
There were three such weapons in that simple little shed alone.
With the strong national power of the Han people, if they cast it with all their strength, how would the Huns fight?
Even the most powerful eagle shooter of the Huns can only attack to a distance of less than 150 steps, more than 2,000 steps!
If the number of such weapons reaches a certain number, the Han people can completely wipe out the Huns on their way to attack.
Thinking of the feud between the two clans, how can Princess Yana remain calm at this moment
Of course Liu Deng knew what he was thinking, and this was one of the reasons why he brought her here today.
Only by letting her see the gap, and only by making them feel afraid, can Liu Deng's next plan proceed smoothly.
With a distance of 2,500 steps, Princess Yana didn¡¯t even know how she got there.
But when she arrived, her body felt cold for a while, and she also saw it when the Han people were loading.
"It's just a projectile the size of a human head, but it can actually kill dozens of cattle and sheep wearing armor from 2,500 steps away."
This terrifying attack power really makes Princess Yana terrified.
You must know that in the Xiongnu, most people wore scale armor or leather armor.
And most of those scales were passed down from ancestors who didn¡¯t know how many years ago. How strong is the defensive power of that thing? Is there anyone who knows better than her, a Hun princess
"My King, what do you think?"
Hu Yancang said excitedly.
"Very good! Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. Please accept Liu Deng's respect!"
I just put forward an idea at the beginning, but I didn¡¯t expect that less than a year later, they had actually turned this idea into a reality!
"The king is serious! If it weren't for the king, we people wouldn't know where to strike!"
Hu Yancang was also in tears. Countless people had been researching it for nearly a year and spent millions of dollars. Without Liu Deng¡¯s bottom-line support, how could anyone in the world have let them go through such trouble?
"Okay, let's not flatter each other here! I'm very satisfied with this thing, now let's talk about the cost!"
The power is already powerful enough, the only remaining problem is whether it can be equipped or not.
After all, one or two artillery pieces alone will not make much difference at all.
Only when it is equipped on a large scale can it play its due role! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
