Hearing the changes downstairs, Zhang Yu also breathed a sigh of relief and put away the dagger.
The hotel manager didn't stay on the second floor for too long. He stood in the corridor for a while and then went downstairs.
Zhang Yu made a gesture to the soldiers to indicate that the plan would continue. The soldiers raised their rocket launchers and aimed at the counterfeit banknote workshop two hundred meters away.
The traitors in the workshop were still busy making counterfeit money. The five rooms were very brightly lit by lanterns and candles, and they had no idea that a disaster was coming.
Zhang Yu lowered his voice and said, "We're all aiming! What the Duke lacks most is gunpowder. The cost of one rocket is more than thirty taels. If one misses, a year's salary will be wasted."
Fifteen soldiers holding rocket launchers heard Zhang Yu's words and aimed at the yard in the distance. The rocket launchers each aimed at the roofs of five houses according to the previously assigned targets.
Zhang Yu waved his hand suddenly and shouted in a low voice: "Light the fire!"
Five soldiers holding small torches walked behind the rocket launcher and lit the fuses of fifteen rocket launchers in order.
The fifteen rocket launchers had previously built the fuse lengths according to the ignition sequence, so although the ignition crews lit the rockets one after another, the fifteen rockets were triggered at the same time.
The fuse quickly ignited the propellant of the rocket, and the nitrocellulose burned violently, spurting out a huge flame from the tail of the rocket launcher. The roofs of the two inns were instantly illuminated by the rocket's tail flame, which was so bright that it made people feel uncomfortable.
His eyes turned white.
Fifteen rockets made a "boom" sound and rushed out of the rocket launcher almost at the same time. The rockets dragged a long tail flame and flew faster and faster, faster than arrows. They looked like fifteen lightning bolts.
, rushed towards the house 200 meters away.
However, because it used smokeless gunpowder nitrocellulose, the rocket did not leave a smoke trail in the air and plunged into the roofs of five counterfeit banknote workshops.
How could those bungalow roofs paved with black tiles withstand the impact of a high-speed rocket? A big hole was punched out by the sharp head of the rocket upon impact. Broken tiles shot out, sawdust flew, and the rocket pierced five people through the broken roof.
inside a house.
Three rockets were smashed into each house. The huge rockets pierced the roof and penetrated the brick walls of the room, frightening the criminals who were printing counterfeit money into chaos.
Although the traitors did not know what these rockets were, looking at the destructive momentum of this weapon piercing the roof and breaking into the house, they also knew that this was by no means an easy thing to deal with.
The manager of the banknote printing workshop took one look at the rocket stuck in the brick wall, and his face turned pale with fear. He yelled "Get out of here!", pulled a boy who was blocking him, and blocked the way to the door to escape.
Cleared out. The five houses in the counterfeit banknote workshop are not big, only a dozen square meters. As long as he takes a few steps forward, the manager can escape outside.
But escaping was actually a fantasy, because the rocket exploded immediately. No matter how hard the manager struggled, he had no chance of survival.
The rockets flew very fast and the time they flew in the air was very short, so the delay fuse of the war department only reserved a buffer time of two seconds. It took only two blinks for the three rockets to be fired into the room.
It exploded.
The 11 kilograms of nitrocellulose in the combat department exploded suddenly, destroying the steel shell of the combat department that bound them, and sending shock waves into the small room.
In the deafening explosion, 66 kilograms of nitrocellulose exploded in each room at the same time. There were 330 kilograms of nitrocellulose in five square meters. The effect was devastating. The five small bungalows seemed to have been blown apart.
The balloon was blown to pieces without any suspense. The printing machine in the room was blown to pieces in an instant. The traitor who printed the money was also blown into coke and turned into pieces in the first place.
The manager who tried to escape died instantly without any body parts.
The tiled roofs and walls of the five houses were blown away, turning into five huge fireballs. The five fireballs collided together in the sky above the counterfeit money workshop and hurtled upward into the night sky.
The first courtyard disguised as a dye workshop was hit by the shock wave, and half of the two houses connected to the backyard were destroyed.
Even the houses around the counterfeit banknote workshop were affected. The shock wave hit the roof of the nearby yard and blew away all the tiles of many nearby houses.
Zhang Yu stood on the roof of the inn and felt that the flames of the explosion lit up half of Anqing Prefecture.
The flames emitted by the explosion turned into black smoke, rising upwards and turning into a black cloud. It slowly ascended over the blazing fire field. When the shock wave of the explosion dissipated, the counterfeit banknote workshop had turned into a sea of fire.
Although he had test-fired several rockets, Zhang Yu had never seen fifteen rockets explode at the same time, and was shocked by the power of the intensive bombing. He looked at the rocket that had turned into a sheet of flames and
The counterfeit money workshop in ruins waved to stop the rocket launchers who were preparing for the second bombing.
Obviously, a bombing of fifteen rockets had completely destroyed the counterfeit money workshop. Further bombing would be a waste of ammunition.
The soldiers put away the rockets and waited for Zhang Yu's order.
The entire city of Anqing Prefecture was shocked by this violent explosion. Zhang Yu saw panicked people pouring out of the streets and alleys in the distance. People didn't know what was happening and looked around in the streets in confusion.
However, the people nearby were frightened by the deafening explosion. They stayed at home and did not dare to show their faces, for fear of encountering misfortune as soon as they stepped out of the house.
The government officials, archers and patrol inspectors responsible for city security are all cunning. They heard the loud noise in the city and knew that it was definitely not a trivial matter. If they went out and bumped into the strongman, they might be "handled" by the strongman.
".So even though the whole city was shaken, the security personnel in the Yamen never came out.
Even the innkeeper under Zhang Yu's feet was frightened. I don't know if he noticed the roar of the rocket launcher, but in short, he made up his mind to remain silent and determined not to go upstairs and provoke the terrifying strongman on the roof.
Zhang Yu looked at the situation around him and nodded.
The plan went smoothly. The power of the Grand Duke's rocket launcher was so amazing that the task was easier than imagined. With just one bombing, all the people and machines in the counterfeit banknote workshop were wiped out.
"retreat!"
Twenty soldiers jumped from the roof of the inn to the roof of a nearby residential building, jumped off the roof along the rope, and disappeared into the panic-stricken Anqing Prefecture.
####
The sky was getting brighter, and Ruan Dacheng, who had not slept all night, looked at the door of the main house and couldn't help but tremble.
Ever since he heard the loud explosion last night, Ruan Dacheng had been fidgeting with fright. After the explosion subsided for a quarter of an hour, and the servant he sent out reported that the counterfeit banknote workshop had been blown into ruins, Ruan Dacheng collapsed directly.
On the bed.
Li Zhi came to take revenge on himself.
Ruan Dacheng really couldn't believe that Li Zhi had such a method and couldn't even hide in the house.
