Female-to-male: I live on farming

Chapter 184: The Brave General's Cannon

At this time, the Qin army had already formed its battle array and was ready for battle.

The two armies confronted each other and challenged each other.

Jinyang narrowed his narrow eyes, revealing a dangerous glow, and waved his hand, saying, "Light the fire."

The flag bearer beside him waved the flag to signal.

Qin Zheng saw the soldiers beside him who had been prepared holding torches to light the exposed lines on a certain part of the black iron tube, and then immediately stepped back a few steps after lighting it.

Not long after, a loud noise was heard in my ears, and the next second, a deafening explosion was heard in the distance.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Qin Zheng clearly saw a huge black ball rushing out of the black iron pipe, whistling past his head with thick smoke.

I saw black balls drawing an arc in the air and falling down, hitting the middle of the Qin army lined up in front. The moment they fell, a deafening explosion sounded.

The black ball fell to the ground and exploded with great force. The flying shrapnel instantly hit the people around it. Every time the iron ball exploded, large numbers of people fell down.

"My arm. What the hell is this?"

"Don't panic! Manage the formation!"

The Qin army stared in amazement at the iron balls falling from the sky. Each explosion would take away several lives, accompanied by screams and chaos.

Their formation was too dense, which resulted in the iron ball's lethality being maximized. Once the black ball exploded, the crowd almost fell down in droves.

For a while, screams and explosions were heard one after another in the Qin army's camp, and shattered bodies were everywhere.

The air was filled with black smoke and broken arms and legs. It was no exaggeration to say that it was hell on earth.

The Qin army had been preparing for this battle for a long time, and had accumulated strength and was determined to bring Jiaozhou back to Qin territory. After winning successive victories since the start of the war, they had become arrogant and looked down on the Yan army. But at this moment, fear finally appeared on their faces, and they were in a panic, and their formation was in disarray.

Not only the Qin army, which was covered in dust and dirt at this time, was shocked, even the Black Armor Army itself was shocked, not to mention the Zhenbei Army.

Most of the Black Armor Army didn't know the power of this item, and those who knew it were asked to keep it a secret. Therefore, most of the army only knew that this item was very important, and the eldest princess specifically ordered to protect its safety.

Qin Zheng was dumbfounded at this time. In his opinion, the Qin barbarians, who were extremely powerful and mighty, were beaten badly by this creature before they even started fighting.

The soldiers in front were still loading the black balls in an orderly manner, and several iron barrels were firing black balls continuously. He had never seen such a scene before, without even a single soldier being deployed, but this thing alone could have such a great killing power.

With this item in hand, the princess will have no worries about not achieving her goal.

If...if the Zhenbei Army also had this thing, why would they be afraid of the invasion of the Qin Army, and why would they worry about the instability of the northern border?

Thinking of this, Qin Zheng hesitated and stepped forward and asked, "Brother, what on earth is this?"

"The princess named it the Brave General Cannon." The soldier in charge of loading the ammunition said without turning his head.

Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng could not help but look up at the eldest princess sitting on the tall horse. He himself did not realize that there was something indescribable in his eyes at this moment.

……

The name of this thing was actually given by Qin Ke. The eldest princess doesn’t care what it is called, she only cares about its power.

When Qin Ke first heard that the Qin army was invading the northern border of Dayan, he hesitated for a long time, but finally exchanged the design drawings of the cannon in the system mall.

He did not want to create such a large-scale destructive firearm at first, because it would change the entire world pattern and historical trend. The use of firearms in the era of cold weapons may lead to an uncontrollable war and bring great disaster to mankind.

But foreign enemies invaded with great force.

He even went to ask his wife for her opinion. His wife said that whether a weapon is beneficial or harmful does not depend on the weapon itself, but on the person who uses it.

Firearms are beneficial in the hands of the right people, but harmful in the hands of ambitious people.

He personally supervised the construction when Xiao Anyi set out to conquer Yizhou, and the steps were kept strictly confidential. Only he and the eldest princess had seen the complete drawings.

Because the barrel is made of pure iron, it is very heavy, weighing about 4000 to 7000 kilograms, is nine feet six inches long, and is moved and transported on four wheels. It can fire 20-kilogram shells.

He had limited time, and he only had time to make these eight cannons before leaving for Yizhou, but he felt that these eight cannons were enough to deal with the situation ahead.

I remember when he made it and tested the power of the weapon in front of the princess for the first time, he was shocked and silent for a long time.

Before leaving, she looked at him deeply. Qin Ke couldn't tell what was in that look.

But he estimated that once he made this thing, he would never be out of the sight of the princess again. Now that she had seen its power, she could see that whoever possessed this thing would be able to conquer the world.

Even though she had been planning and preparing for many years and had the ability to fight for the world, if this thing fell into the hands of others, her advantages would be gone and she would be defeated.

That meant that Qin Ke must not fall into the hands of others. Fortunately, she now knew that Qin Ke was absolutely loyal to her and would never betray her.

Now that the cannon was actually used on the battlefield and its lethality was witnessed, Jin Yang's lips curled up slightly. He waited until all the shells they brought were fired before he raised his hand and said in a deep voice: "Attack!"

The Black Armor Army, which was ready to go, immediately rushed forward, but Li Nanqiao did not act rashly, but stood firmly behind the eldest princess to protect her.

The main duty of Fengyuwei is to protect Her Royal Highness the Princess, not to charge into battle and kill the enemy. Even if military merit is within reach, she must abide by her duty.

However, Jinyang Zeng was also a man who had fought on the battlefield. How could he just stand there and watch them kill the enemy? The next second, he raised his spear, pulled the reins, rode his horse forward and rushed forward to kill the enemy.

Li Nanqiao and the Fengyu Guards followed closely behind her, with their horses' hooves flying and heads falling to the ground wherever they passed.

The Qin army had already suffered heavy casualties from the iron balls they launched, with men and horses falling to the ground. Only half of the 100,000-strong army was left, and those who survived were in a panic.

Faced with the charge of the Black Armor Army at this time, they had no fighting spirit at all. They didn't even have time to pick up their weapons before they were killed by the rushing Black Armor Army.

The battlefield was one-sided, and the Zhenbei Army behind could not wait to join the battlefield.

After all, it has been so long since we have been able to gain the upper hand on the battlefield against the Qin army.
