Chapter 876 Anxious Si Qin
Chapter 876 Anxious Siqin
"The total number of troops under Baize and Burigude's command on the other side is less than three thousand, right?"
"And you, with four thousand prairie cavalry."
"Now you tell me that you lost nearly two thousand troops and allowed Bai Ze and the others to escape?!"
"If I only gave you three thousand troops, would you have to die there?!"
As he spoke, Si Qin's entire mood went out of control for a moment.
This is the first time that I have lost my composure in front of my subordinates.
It is enough to see how much pressure and anxiety he has accumulated during this period.
Bazaar, who was kneeling below, began to sweat continuously on his forehead. He didn't dare to dawdle, so he quickly explained...
"Your Majesty, forgive me. There is a reason for this defeat. The opponent used an attack method and weapons that we have never seen before. The weapons were incredibly powerful. We were unprepared at the time and had no idea how to deal with them."
While talking, Bazar waved quickly.
He signaled to the attendants on the side and quickly presented the weapon he had retrieved in front of the king.
When Siqin saw Bazar, he even picked up the opponent's weapon.
The irritable mood has also eased a bit.
Then, his eyes quickly fell on the weapon presented by the attendant.
It was a weapon that looked like a spear.
But the difference is that the entire gun head and the gun barrel are integrated, and both ends are sharp.
At the same time, it is completely made of an extremely tough metal.
But it was obviously made of pure metal, but what surprised him was that when he held it in his hand, the weight was much lighter than he expected.
This is obviously the person who made this weapon thought carefully, so it was specially adjusted to a moderate weight that will neither make the soldier feel too light nor too heavy.
Moreover, there are deep grooves carved near the gun head.
This weapon should have been easily pulled off by Bazar from some corpse when he was retreating.
Although it was cleaned before being presented.
But Siqin could still see the dried and blackened blood in the groove.
You can still vaguely smell the lingering smell of blood.
"This metal is not bronze..."
Gently touching the sharp tip of the gun.
Si Qin could clearly feel that the texture of this weapon was completely different from bronze.
As his thoughts whirled, he pulled out the bronze sword placed next to his throne.
Without hesitation, he struck directly at the bloodletting gun with his sword.
At that time, I only heard a muffled sound of "dang".
Si Qin's hands holding the sword were numb from the force of the shock.
But only a shallow white mark was left on the surface of the bloodletting gun.
The facts before him made him take a deep breath.
Then he seemed to remember something, and his whole face became uncertain for a while.
This discovery undoubtedly had a huge impact on Siqin.
At the same time, he also quickly thought of the previous Wanjie civilization that traded a large number of bronze weapons to the Hanar tribe.
He had always been wondering before.
No matter how powerful the civilization of the world is, it is impossible to trade such a large number of weapons to the Hanar tribe at will.
Now it seems that those weapons are not important to them at all.
Because in their place, bronze weapons have been eliminated and they already have better metals!
His heart felt heavy for a while. When he finally thought that he was at least close to the civilizations of all worlds in terms of weapons and equipment, he found that the other party had quietly left him behind.
This feeling is really bad.
At this moment, he couldn't get angry at the fact that Bazar had defeated nearly two thousand steppe cavalry and retreated in defeat.
"How did the other party attack with this weapon?"
Si Qin quickly asked the questions in his mind.
After hearing this, Bazar quickly replied...
"Report to the king, it's a throw."
While speaking, Bazar also made a little gesture.
Immediately, as he recalled the scene at that time, a trace of obvious lingering fear flashed across his face.
"The lethality of this weapon is simply astonishing. It can easily penetrate a soldier's body while wearing leather armor."
"And there are many weapons like this on the opposite side."
"Hundreds or even thousands of them are thrown at us at the same time. We have no way to resist them!"
When Siqin heard this, the muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.
Based on Bazar's description, he could almost imagine the horrifying scene.
After a long moment of silence, Si Qin let out a long, heavy breath.
Then he waved his hand with a tired look on his face.
Bazaar, who was kneeling below, felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly withdrew respectfully.
After that, Siqin gave the bloodletting gun to his domestic craftsmen and asked them to study it carefully to see if they could make a similar weapon out of bronze.
The craftsmen gave him the answer a week later.
That just can't be done.
Because after smelting, they discovered that this weapon they had never seen before had a very special structure.
That is, the inside of this weapon is hollow!
This is the biggest reason why his weapon is surprisingly light despite being made of pure metal!
This makes it impossible for them to start.
How did you do it?
What methods did the other party's craftsmen use to make this weapon hollow?
They don't have this technology at all.
Of course, they could also choose to cast it solid, but in that case, the cost and weight would increase significantly.
At the same time, in order to confirm the effect and power of this weapon.
Beforehand, they stabbed a captured rebel soldier with a bloodletting gun.
After the gun tip penetrated the rebel soldier's body, it didn't take long for blood to flow out from the surrounding grooves.
The rebel soldier soon died of excessive blood loss.
But this situation makes the craftsmen feel that they cannot understand it at all.
What is the reason?
Is it just because of those grooves?
With such doubts, they tried to make a similar weapon and also carved a few grooves into it.
However, it did not achieve the effect of the previous bloodletting gun at all.
This puzzled them.
How could they have imagined it?
The structure of this bloodletting gun is far from simple as it seems.
Although the structural design drawing was drawn by Luo Ji based on the principles of weapons.
But during the production process, some of Xuan Ye’s whims were also added.
The two designs were combined into one, and after many experiments and recasting, the current effect was achieved.
The key to that design is that it is in a place where it is impossible for them to see it at first glance.
Picking up a blood-letting gun and going back, do you want to learn their weapons-forging technology from the civilizations of all realms?
How can it be that easy?
