After listening to the soldiers' words, Chai Yan and the others rushed to the Chinese army's tent.
As soon as they entered the camp, Ahudala came over happily and said happily: "Taoist Priest, I found the transparent crystal stone needed to make a telescope!"
With that said, Ahudala pulled Chaiyan to a wooden box.
When I opened the wooden box and took a look, it was indeed full of crystal stones.
Chai Yan looked at Ahudala in great surprise and said: "Second Prince, I have to say that your work efficiency is also extremely high. In only half a day from yesterday to today, not only did you find all the ingredients for the poison smoke ball,
, I even found such a hard-to-find transparent crystal stone, and I found so many, I admire it, I really admire it!”
Ahudala immediately smiled, shook his head and said humbly: "Taoist Master, it was actually luck this time. After buying the medicinal materials, I returned home, and when I asked my wife, I found that she actually knew where to find them. Then I rushed over immediately, who
I know there was some unpleasantness in the middle...but in the end I still snatched the box of crystal stones, so I felt like a villain for once."
"Robbing?" Chai Yan expressed curiosity.
When Chaiyan asked, Ahudala told everything that happened in the Treasure Pavilion last night.
After finishing speaking, Ahudala immediately said: "Don't worry, Taoist Master, I will definitely apologize to the original buyers of these crystal stones properly when I get back. I will compensate them as much as they deserve. I will never deny my debt."
When Chai Yan heard what Ahudala had already said, he nodded and made no further comments.
Jimo Qiao gave a thumbs up and said: "Second Prince, you did a great job in this matter and made a prompt decision!"
"Miss Mo Yu, please stop making fun of me." Ahhudala smiled and waved her hands.
Next, Chai Yan took out the crystal stone from the box and began to look at it piece by piece.
What surprised Chai Yan was that the transparency of this box of crystal stones was very good and the size was sufficient, making them the best choice for making eyepieces and objective lenses.
"Second Prince, this batch of crystal stones is very good. To be conservative, we must have seven or eight telescopes." Chai Yan nodded and said.
Ahudala was very happy and said impatiently: "Taoist Priest, if possible, let's send the crystal stone to the craftsman and start polishing it quickly."
Ahudala can't wait to see the new telescope come out.
"No problem." Chai Yan agreed readily, and then turned around and said: "Cheng Jiu, Yu Tie, you should send this box of crystal stones to the craftsmen immediately, and tell them to start polishing and making them immediately as they did last time."
"Yes." Cheng Jiu nodded in agreement, and he and Yu Tie carried the box out of the camp.
As soon as the two men left carrying the box, Fan Xingwang entered the camp with two soldiers.
After seeing Ahudala, it was natural for both parties to exchange some polite words.
During the chat, everyone learned that Ahudala had set off from Haoyue City before dawn. They hurriedly hurried along and arrived at the camp without even having breakfast.
Hearing this, Fan Xingwang hurriedly ordered people to prepare food and let the second prince starve, which he could not do.
After a while, the soldiers brought hot meals.
Ahhudala was really hungry now, so he ate big gulps without caring about his image.
During the meal, Chai Yan happened to tell Ahudala and Fan Xingwang the idea of making poison smoke balls. After hearing this, they both looked forward to it, hoping that the poison smoke balls could be successfully tested as soon as possible.
Suddenly, Chai Yan proposed: "Second Prince, the current reserve of kerosene in the camp is not sufficient. It can only be said to be just enough. After you return, can you please think of ways to get more kerosene?"
ah?"
"I understand, leave the kerosene matter to me. I will try my best to get it."
Ahudala knew in his heart that this was actually quite difficult, but he still agreed first.
Later, Ahudala asked about the movements of the Pitz people. Fan Xingwang told him that since the Pitz people lost more than 200 people on the mountain on the first day, there had been no major movements in the past two days, and it was still just continuous
of hoarding earth and rocks.
Just as he was talking about the situation of the Pitz people, suddenly there was a rapid sound of horns outside the tent.
Fan Xingwang was suddenly startled and stood up quickly: "No, the Piz people are moving!"
Ahudala also became nervous instantly and stood up without even thinking about eating.
The next moment, Fan Xingwang rushed out of the camp with long strides, followed closely by Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao, and Ahudala and his entourage walked at the end, and the group rushed to Pass Fangcheng.
After boarding the pass, everyone immediately looked to the north and discovered that there were many siege vehicles gathering in front of the Pitz camp.
Fan Xingwang looked solemn and whispered in a deep voice: "It's finally here!"
Jimo Qiao had never seen those strange siege vehicles before, but he didn't want to show his cowardice, so he secretly pulled Chai Yan aside and asked in a low voice: "What are those vehicles for?"
Chai Yan took a look and asked, "What are you asking about?"
Jimo Qiao pointed his hand and said, "That's the one with a big wooden board installed in front of the car. What's that called? What is it used for?"
Chai Yan said: "Oh, that's called a wooden mantle car. It's a siege car that serves as a cover. When the defenders shoot arrows or throw things to attack them, the big wooden board can play a very good protective role."
Jimo Qiao understood immediately, nodded and pointed to another place: "What about that one? It has wheels underneath and a small house-like car on top. What is that one?"
Chai Yan said patiently: "That car is called Fenyun. It has four wheels but no bottom. Except for the lack of cover at the back, the other side panels are very strong, and they are also covered with cowhide and other things.
Improve the ability to defend against arrows. In this way, the soldiers can hide in the cart, and then push the cart together to quickly approach the city. Generally speaking, a cart can hide about ten people, or even more
."
After hearing this, Jimo Qiao immediately felt that this kind of car was very powerful, and he immediately started counting: "One, two, three, four..."
After counting for a while, Jimo Qiao became dazzled, so he said anxiously: "What should I do? The enemy has come with so many wooden chariots and anemone chariots. If they all rush over to fill up the mountains with earth, the speed will be extremely high."
!”
Chai Yan nodded solemnly and said, "Having said that, the Qingyuan Pass is a natural barrier that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If the Pitz people want to break through, the damage will be huge."
Just as Jimo Qiao was about to speak, he suddenly heard Ahudala's somewhat excited voice.
"General Fan, stop talking. I won't go down. I want to be with the soldiers and beat the Pitz national dog hard!"
Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao turned around and saw that it was Fan Xingwang and his soldiers who were persuading Ahudala to leave. Otherwise, if the war started and accidentally injured the second prince, Fan Xingwang would not be able to bear the consequences and walk away!
But Ahudala had a very stubborn temper. No matter how Fan Xingwang and others tried to persuade him, he was unwilling to leave Fangcheng and was determined to join the battle.
Chai Yan did not want Ahudala to affect Fan Xingwang's armament dispatch work, so he went up decisively and said: "General Fan, you can concentrate on commanding military affairs. Leave the second prince to us, and nothing will happen."
Fan Xingwang hesitated for a moment, then nodded immediately and said: "Well, the second prince will ask the Taoist priest and Miss Mo Yu to take care of it... Second prince, you should also be more careful and pay attention to safety."
After saying that, Fan Xingwang led his soldiers and ran towards the front of the trail, and he continued to give orders in a loud, deep, majestic and powerful voice.
Chai Yan frowned, stared at Ahudala very seriously, and said: "Second prince, you must follow me closely in a while, and you must not run around! Do you understand?"
Ahhudala's eyes were full of excitement and excitement, and he agreed very forcefully: "Understood!"
