The weapons depot of the Suppressing Song Army contains tens of millions of bullets and artillery shells. It is the most valuable asset of the Suppressing Song Army, so the defense is naturally extremely tight.
Not only are there one post at five steps and one sentry at ten steps, there are also open sentinels, hidden sentries, and mobile sentries. The sentries were all armed with live ammunition, as well as crooked machine guns and small-caliber artillery.
Unless there is a warrant from the military commander, anyone who dares to approach will be immediately beaten to a sieve by powerful firepower, so it can be said that it is difficult for even gods to enter.
But this still doesn't trouble Xiang Nan.
He was originally a master of martial arts. In the years since he traveled back in time, he has been practicing martial arts diligently, and he has perfected the Nine Yang Divine Skill, Nine Yin Manual, Small Wuxiang Skill, Sunflower Book, Taixuan Jing, etc.
Therefore, his speed can be said to be astonishingly fast. Even experts may not be able to see his movements clearly, let alone these ordinary soldiers.
After Xiang Nan found the arsenal, he immediately sneaked into it under the moonlight.
Not only does he have good light skills and fast speed, but he can also clearly perceive the positions of the open whistles, hidden whistles, and mobile whistles.
In addition, he has inherited the secret agent skills from James Bond, and his secret infiltration technology is also top-notch, so he can sneak in from the blind spots of the sentries.
Although there were many soldiers guarding him, no one found Xiang Nan.
After approaching the arsenal, Xiang Nan immediately used his bone-shrinking technique and drilled in through a ventilation hole that was not much larger than a dog hole.
Once inside, Xiang Nan immediately placed delayed ignition devices around him.
The ignition device he used was homemade, composed of white phosphorus, incense, kerosene, etc. After the incense stick is lit, it burns slowly, and after a certain period of time, it will ignite the white phosphorus.
After the white phosphorus burns, it ignites kerosene, which then ignites the bullet. At that time, as long as one explosion occurs, the entire arsenal will not be saved.
For the sake of safety, Xiang Nan placed more than ten ignition devices in every corner, so it was guaranteed to be foolproof.
…
After finishing his work, Xiang Nan returned the same way.
Then, he found a corner and waited quietly.
About five minutes later, a rumbling explosion was heard, which was earth-shaking and deafening. The earth was shaking, and then flames soared into the sky, reaching a height of more than 100 meters.
Under the firelight, the dull faces of thousands of soldiers suppressing Song were reflected.
Then I heard the crackling and booming explosions, which was a thousand or ten thousand times more lively than setting off firecrackers during the New Year.
The huge explosion woke up the sleeping people in the city.
At first, they didn't know what was going on and thought it was a war in the county town. So everyone was trembling with fear.
Later, they learned that the sound of gunfire was caused by the explosion of the Zhensong Army's arsenal, and they all couldn't help but cheered heartily.
These days, the Zhensong Army is doing a lot of good things in the city.
Beating, smashing, looting, burning, raping and plundering, it can be said that they committed all kinds of evil, and the people dared to be angry but dare not speak out.
Now that its arsenal has been bombed, the people are naturally happy to watch the excitement.
…
As soon as the arsenal was blown up, the city of Chang'an was immediately under martial law, with soldiers guarding everywhere to investigate the real culprit who blew up the arsenal.
However, this still did not trouble Xiang Nan. He had already sneaked out of the city early and then returned to the original place safely.
Then, at night, Xiang Nan heard a knock on the back door.
He walked over and opened the door, and saw Lu Zhaopeng standing outside.
Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked around and found no one following him. Then he nodded to Lu Zhaopeng, "It's you, come in~"
Lu Zhaopeng entered the house, looked at Xiang Nan and said, "The arsenal of the Zhensong Army was really bombed."
"Yeah, it's a good thing, it should be retribution." Xiang Nan laughed when he heard it.
Lu Zhaopeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "It's retribution. As soon as the arsenal was exploded, the Zhensong Army's offensive against Xi'an City stopped immediately."
After the Zhensong Army's arsenal was blown up, they only had a million rounds of surviving ammunition at most.
Because at the time of the war, bullets were a good thing and would not be given to soldiers all at once. Instead, bullets are fired only before each charge, and only a dozen rounds are fired at a time, all of which are used sparingly.
In modern warfare, the scene of shooting continuously with a gun was simply unimaginable at the time.
"Okay, now the people in the city can breathe a sigh of relief." Xiang Nan nodded.
"It's just that the arsenal was bombed, which only weakened the Zhensong Army, but it was not enough to make them retreat." Lu Zhaopeng added, "Moreover, I believe that Blind Liu will exploit the people even more cruelly in order to make up for the arsenal being destroyed. Exploded into a deficit."
Xiang Nan nodded.
Blind Liu is a typical reactionary warlord. His purpose in fighting is to seize territory, power, money, and women for his own selfish gain.
He will not understand the suffering of the people. In his eyes, the people were no different than animals. He won't pity them, but will just keep squeezing them.
This time the arsenal was bombed, Blind Liu suffered heavy losses, and he must find a way to make up for the losses. And the common people naturally became the best targets for him to wield his sword.
"So the villagers should be organized and let them have the courage to resist, just like the Jiao Nong Uprising back then." Xiang Nan said.
When Lu Zhaopeng heard this, he nodded immediately. He thought so too.
A common person is like a bug, and can only be oppressed by warlords, government officials, local tyrants, and bullies. But a group of common people are like dragons and can overthrow even the emperor, let alone reactionary warlords.
"I picked these up. Take a look and take them if they are useful." Xiang Nan said, dragging out several large boxes from under the bed.
Lu Zhaopeng was stunned, and when he opened it, his eyes lit up.
I saw that these boxes were full of arms, including long guns, short guns, machine guns, bullets, grenades, and even a mortar and dozens of mortar shells.
"This...this...this..." He felt excited when he saw it.
Now they are short of weapons and therefore cannot be effectively armed. Now that they have these weapons, their strength has undoubtedly been greatly enhanced, and they can do a lot of things.
"Thank you, I will hurry up and transport it away." Lu Zhaopeng said happily.
"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded.
After he entered the arsenal yesterday and saw so many weapons, he wanted to blow them all up in one go.
But then I thought about it, it was a pity that they all exploded, so I still stole some. Prepare to give it to Lu Zhaopeng.
Because he knew that the living environment of Lu Zhaopeng and others had always been relatively poor, lacking weapons, funds, medicinal materials, talents... in short, everything.
Giving them this batch of arms should be of considerable use. It is impossible to arm 100,000 people, arming a company is enough.
Two days later, Lu Zhaopeng came to visit again late at night, and then transported all the large boxes away.
"Hei Wa, thank you." He said to Xiang Nan.
"You're welcome. These things will only rust in my hands. They should be given to those who need them most." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Zhao Peng, make good use of them and fight more bad guys."
When Lu Zhaopeng heard this, he nodded.
