"As for mass production, of course."
"Okay!" Shang Xin was surprised.
What does mass production mean? He didn't know it before, but after seeing the tragedy of the rebel army, he knew it all too well.
With just a hundred rounds, the 30,000 thief army can be blasted without any resistance, causing countless casualties. If there were more, the 150,000 thief army, no, there are not that many now.
That doesn't mean you're not afraid of them at all.
No wonder! No wonder Li Zhao showed no fear when facing an army of thieves a hundred times his own. It turned out that he still had such a trump card.
He was originally nervous when he came to Chang'an Township, but after seeing a series of terrifying weapons, he felt relieved.
First there are underground explosives, then there are random machine gun fires, then there are corrosive liquids, and finally there are bombing anti-aircraft guns, each of which can kill people.
Everything is frightening. If you have these things, why be afraid of not being able to defend Xianyang City, and why be afraid of these thieves.
"General Li" Shang Xin suddenly bowed his head and was very respectful, "I hope you can produce these things and defend Xianyang City. Shang Xin will definitely say credit for you in front of His Majesty."
Li Zhaoqian laughed.
Shang Xin said that he would also do this, but he was most worried about whether Qin Shihuang would be wary of these weapons. Once he was wary, his end would not be good.
However, with the words of the famous people around Qin Shihuang, he felt a lot more relieved.
"Don't worry, I've already prepared. Now I'm waiting for the bandit army to besiege Xianyang City. When the time comes, hehe!"
Li Zhao sneered.
In the era of cold weapons, it is difficult to fight against hot weapons with just those weapons. Even if they have fire guns.
"Okay, the bandit army has come to kill them, get ready to watch the show!"
Yes, anti-aircraft guns are sharp, but they are only suitable for bombing. When the rebels discover its weaknesses, they will definitely have preventive measures, and the natural casualty rate will be reduced.
At this moment, they only killed tens of thousands of people. More than ten thousand people were rushing this way. They had no choice but to retreat and had no choice but to come this way.
However, it played into Li Zhao's hands.
If the bandit army retreats, he cannot completely destroy it, but if they attack, it is another matter.
When the rebels marched to the east, he cautiously arranged defenses. These were only for the raids of the rebels. Of course, if they left, they would not be needed, but they dared to take advantage of Chang'an Township. Death date.
Shang Xin's eyes shined.
He was aware of Li Zhao's arrangement. It could be said that in the past, a single weapon was used to kill thieves, but here, everything was done, and all the weapons were used together, which is very exciting.
"withdraw!"
Everyone in Chang'an Township picked up their anti-aircraft guns and immediately retreated, disappearing into the dense forest.
Cao Yang refused to give up.
Most of the 50,000 people died in one fell swoop. I knew that even if I set foot in Xianyang, it would have no effect. In fact, Duke Xiang's order to him was to lead 50,000 troops to pretend to attack the city at the south gate to attract the attention of the Xianyang defenders.
In other words, his mission was very simple and safe. He only needed to surround it. However, the safest place would lead to the worst encounter. This was something he could not have imagined.
But things have happened, losses have been caused, and he can no longer undo everything. Only by destroying Chang'an Township can he have some relief.
After all, Xiang Gong would not let him go if he was so injured.
Chang'an Township was the cause of all this, and he couldn't let Chang'an Township go, even if he died.
"Come on, they will die no matter what, kill them all, and avenge your brothers."
Cao Yang raised his sword high and shouted fiercely.
When everyone saw the people from Chang'an Township retreating, they thought they were afraid, so they rushed forward one by one desperately.
When the military advisor saw this scene, his heart lifted.
Although there are few people in Chang'an Township, they have terrifying weapons. Now they are retreating. It is impossible that there is no trick here. He is afraid that there will be underground explosions and liquid corrosion.
Then he shouted loudly:
"Everyone, stop, stop, and retreat quickly, the front is dangerous."
After finishing speaking, he immediately caught up with Cao Yang and sternly persuaded:
"General, don't pursue me, for fear of fraud!"
Cao Yang, who was extremely angry, heard what he said. Shouting like this would shake the morale of the army. How could he tolerate it? Without saying a word, he swung his long sword and stabbed the general and division under the sword. He also did not forget to give the military division a stern wink. .
"Don't try to tempt our troops. It's obvious that Chang'an Township's weapons have been exhausted. It's a good time to kill them."
"kill!"
Swinging his sword straight up, he was the first to rush forward.
The military advisor covered his body with blood gushing out, looked forward in despair, and said sadly, "Thieves will always be thieves, and the rebel army will be destroyed!"
After speaking, he fell down and ruined Chang'an Township.
"kill!"
"Their weapons have been exhausted and the time to kill is right."
"Firegun fired."
More than 10,000 people raised their firecrackers, fired them regardless of what was in front of them, and then rushed into the dense forest.
The place is full of thorns, overgrown weeds, and low-hanging trees. It is difficult to see what is in front of them, but they are so angry that they have so much to worry about. Now their eyes only want to kill all Chang'an Township and avenge their dead brothers.
At the same time, there is also an idea that by killing the people of Chang'an, maybe they can have an explanation in front of Duke Xiang, otherwise they will only die, no matter what.
Killing is the right way.
When everyone rushed into the dense forest, what the rebels didn't know was that behind them, the Chang'an villagers came out from a very secret place. They looked at the dense forest where the tree tops were constantly shaking, and they all showed their fierceness.
Wu Feng clenched his fist and smashed it on the ground. He swept one leg and exposed the pull cord inside under the falling leaves.
Others also performed the same action, and suddenly, dozens of pull strings appeared in everyone's hands.
Li Zhao looked at it and asked, "Are these the mines left?"
"Yes, there are only a few dozen left."
Li Zhaoli was stunned, "Dozens, that's enough. Did you put all the sulfuric acid all over the dense forest?"
"Yes, I'm afraid these people have already entered the sulfuric acid area and are just waiting to be corroded!" Wu Quan raised his excited fist and rushed back and forth a few times, showing his excitement.
"Yeah!" Li Zhao was very satisfied with Wu Quan's arrangement.
There were not many mines produced, and they were almost used up in the north, but there was a lot of sulfuric acid, and only half of them were consumed in the west, so he asked Wu Quan to bury half next to the mines and put the other half everywhere.
At this moment, the rebels rushed inside. As long as they carry out the next bombing, you can imagine their fate.
"How many anti-aircraft shells are left, and how many machine gun bullets are left?"
"Half of the bullets and half of the shells have been consumed, but it's enough to kill these people." Wu Quan responded.
"Very good!" A cold look appeared on Li Zhao's face, "Then let's get started!"
"Back off the machine guns. If there are any fish that slip through the net later, shoot them immediately. No one will be spared. The anti-aircraft guns will come forward and blast them so hard that even mom can't recognize them."
"Yes!" Everyone could no longer hold back. As soon as they heard the order, the anti-aircraft guns were moved forward, and the people holding machine guns immediately retreated and were ready to shoot.
"emission!"
The small flag in Li Zhao's hand was struck down fiercely. Immediately, all the anti-aircraft gunners went into battle. The shells were put into the barrel one after another, and shot into the air with a "whoosh" sound. After a few breaths, a roar rang out in the dense forest. Continuous roars and bursts of screams echoed through the dense forest, which was very sad.
"Explode the mines and let them all go to the sky!"
Wu Fist pulled the pull cord fiercely, and a louder explosion came out, accompanied by several screams. Others also pulled. Suddenly, the entire dense forest was filled with smoke, and there were booms. Many trees fell down, and their leaves turned into leaves. Piles of ashes and broken branches, one can imagine the fate of the thieves.
Half an hour later, there was no movement in the dense forest, and the remaining tree tops no longer shook. Only the smell of artillery fire filled the entire space.
"Stop, don't waste any more shells."
After a round of bombing, the anti-aircraft artillery shells were reduced by 70%. There were not many left in hand, and there were still 100,000 rebel troops whose whereabouts were unknown. We couldn't waste it at this moment, and we needed to be on guard.
Looking at the dense forest again, it has been reduced to ruins. It is really difficult to say whether there are still alive rebels inside.
"Wu Quan, immediately disperse everyone and surround the entire dense forest. If there are any remaining people, capture them and interrogate the whereabouts of other bandits. At the same time, do not let anyone escape."
"Also, you are not allowed to enter the dense forest at the moment. Once I get some clothes, I can wear them to enter and search every area."
The dense forest is sprinkled with sulfuric acid, which is difficult to clean for a while. If you go in now, it will definitely be corroded, but if you wear special protective clothing, you can enter.
Anti-sulfuric acid clothing is usually made of chemical fiber material. There is no such clothing at the moment, but he can buy it in the system.
After 50,000 people were killed, Chang'an Township was at peace, but he could not guarantee whether there would be any survivors. If there were, it would inevitably pose an unnecessary threat to the people of Chang'an Township, so they must be eliminated.
Soon, he purchased protective clothing from the system and asked Wu Quan to lead dozens of guard members to search inside. An hour later, Wu Quan came out to report.
The bandit army is dead and there is no one alive inside.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were no survivors, Chang'an Township was considered safe.
"But" Wu Quan added, "the general was not found."
Although the rebel army is an insurrectionary army, there are still distinctions. The biggest difference is the clothing. Generally, the soldiers' clothing is lighter in color, and the leader's name is more distinct. The most conspicuous one is the general, who can be seen at a glance.
But just now Wu Quan searched based on clothing and couldn't find the most conspicuous clothing.
"General?" Li Zhao frowned.
Someone nearby said: "Maybe it's dead. The sulfuric acid corrosion is too sharp, so it must have been corroded. Or maybe it was blown to pieces, and the natural clothing was reduced to ashes."
Many people nodded. This statement was very possible. Such a horrific bombing would have shattered every ant to pieces, not to mention a single person.
Li Zhao nodded, but didn't care.
With the three major terrors activated together, it would be difficult to survive. Of course, it wouldn't matter if the general escaped. He was just one person and posed no threat to Chang'an Township.
At most, the weapons here are exposed and the impact effect is not good, but so what, in front of absolute weapons, everything is vain.
"Okay, the bandit army has been wiped out. This is everyone's credit. Butler, I will kill hundreds of golden birds today to reward everyone."
"But don't let your guard down yet. There are only 50,000 thieves attacking Chang'an Township, and there are still 100,000 troops whose whereabouts are unknown. Butler, please transfer your property immediately."
Because I believed too much in the power of weapons, I did not transfer the family property. However, after today's battle, I spent almost all my resources to destroy only 50,000 troops. If the 100,000 troops come again, Chang'an Township will have no choice but to flee. Transferring the family property has this It's necessary.
"Yes, Master!"
The steward immediately led hundreds of people away.
"Wu Quan, you lead the guards to guard everywhere. If you find the bandit army, fight if you can. If you can't fight, retreat immediately. Don't show off your strength."
Wu Quan was in the mood to kill the enemy and wished that more thieves would come to kill him, but the young master said so and reluctantly agreed.
"yes!"
Li Zhao gave him an angry look, then looked at Shang Xin and said, "Father, there are still 100,000 bandit troops missing. We must rush back to Xianyang immediately and act according to the opportunity."
"Of course, of course, we will leave right away. His Majesty must have been waiting for a long time, and he is bound to get angry. But General Li wiped out 50,000 thieves in one fell swoop. His credit is the highest. No matter how angry your Majesty is, he will turn into happiness."
"This old slave will report the truth about today's annihilation of thieves to His Majesty. General Li, just wait to be rewarded!"
Shang Xin patted Li Zhao on the shoulder, smiling broadly.
Being able to witness the process of exterminating thieves today is something he will never forget. This is not the main thing. The main thing is that he participated in such a turn of events during Xianyang's crisis, and it was through his mouth that he could imagine how his status would be improved.
Perhaps starting from today, his future will skyrocket like the dead Zhao Gao.
"Thank you!" Li Zhao handed over his hand, but did not forget to add, "I hope my father-in-law will conceal it for me about the weapons."
"This." Shang Xin was a little embarrassed and really didn't know how to respond.
These people in Chang'an Township killed 50,000 enemies without losing a single person. How could this be concealed? Unless Your Majesty didn't ask, what could he say? Could it be that just a few hundred people holding farm tools killed the thieves? military?
Your Majesty is not a fool.
And such a big thing will definitely not be airtight. Once it comes out, you can't hide it even if you want to. Telling lies is asking for death.
"Shang Xin will adapt to changes."
That was all he could say.
Li Zhao also knew that Shang Xin was in trouble, so he could only say: "Excuse me, father-in-law, please keep it secret for a while. When I capture the rebel army, I will tell you the truth."
This is also a step up for Shang Xin.
Shang Xin smiled, showed an 'ok' expression to Li Zhao, and left.
I had planned to take a wrong path before, but now that the rebel army has been wiped out, there is no need for it.
Li Zhao didn't want to stay. The whereabouts of his 100,000 troops were unknown. He had to return to the city immediately to take precautions and send out scouts to investigate. It was necessary to know ourselves and our enemies.
Just as he was about to leave, suddenly there was the sound of rapid horse hooves outside, and then a soldier wearing armor came on horseback, looking very anxious.
"General, it's not good. The scouts have discovered the traces of the bandit army and are heading towards the east gate."
"East Gate?" Li Zhao was startled.
The east gate is the gate with the weakest defense in Xianyang. This is not deliberately so. In fact, the east gate faces endless mountains with countless cliffs and natural chasms. It is very difficult for ordinary people to pass through, let alone an army. .
But the thief army actually appeared in that direction, which was really unexpected.
"how many people?"
"One hundred thousand!"
"One hundred thousand?" Li Zhao frowned.
The easiest way to reach Xianyang is the road through Chang'an Township, but the bandit army only dispatched 50,000 troops, and most of them came through the natural chasm. There were many dangers to face, and generally speaking, the gains outweighed the losses.
But why do they still do this?
Li Zhao couldn't think it through at all, but this was not the time to think about this. He had to rush back to Xianyang as soon as possible to rearrange the arrangements.
"Walk!"
Li Zhao found a horse and rode away with his guards.
