From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 816 New Army Lesson 1

Long Chen spoke impassionedly on the stage, and Gongsun Linglong's blood boiled when he heard it.

But the female soldiers below looked at each other in dismay, and everyone showed expressions of disbelief, and even thought they had heard it wrong.

"We become the most elite army?"

"Isn't the most elite Long Family Army?"

"Wu Wang said that there is a new type of weapon, but what is it?"

"Linglong Pavilion specializes in forging magical weapons. There may be powerful weapons."

"No matter how powerful the weapons are, we can't become the most elite army."

"King Wu said we can worship generals and become marquises?"

"Just listen to it, don't take it seriously."

Gongsun Linglong was embarrassed by the appearance of the female soldiers below.

Long Chen spoke so well, but they looked like this.

Gongsun Linglong looked at Long Chen.

I thought Long Chen would feel frustrated, but found that Long Chen had a natural expression.

The reactions of these female soldiers were within Long Chen's expectation.

They were all impromptu selections, some of whom had never served in the army.

It is hard to believe that they should be trained into the most elite army.

"I know, you are doubting what I said!"

"I also know that many of you have never been a soldier, never fought a war!"

"But it doesn't matter, I will let you know why I dare say you will become the most elite army!"

After finishing speaking, Long Chen turned his head and said to Gongsun Linglong: "Let the people from the testing ground bring some flintlock guns and explosives over."

Gongsun Linglong immediately understood Long Chen's intentions, and immediately went back to find someone to carry things.

Long Chen stood on the platform, waiting for Gongsun Linglong to bring something over.

The discussions below continued, Long Chen didn't mind.

Doubt and disbelief are normal.

They have never seen muskets, nor artillery, let alone the power of gunpowder.

Long Chen listened to the discussions in the audience, but didn't pay attention at first.

But slowly...

"Wu Wang is so handsome."

"You still need to say, the Holy One bestowed the marriage."

"Ah? When did the Holy Majesty bestow the marriage, and with whom?"

"Princess, fourth princess, you don't even know this."

"When I entered here, the Holy Majesty hadn't conferred marriage yet."

"Isn't King Wu...the eunuch?"

"He's recovered, he's a man now."

"Wow, King Wu is a man?"

Long Chen thought to himself: Sure enough, gossip is a woman's nature.

Long Chen didn't care, and let them gossip about himself and Emperor Luoxi.

After a while, Gongsun Linglong arrived with the archers from the test range.

He brought with him ten flintlock guns and two jars of gunpowder.

"My lord, something has arrived."

Gongsun Linglong walked over, her address at this time was very serious, there was no playfulness, and Long Chen didn't talk to her flirtatiously.

On the school field, the general is not majestic and unable to command the troops.

Long Chen shouted to the female soldiers under the stage: "All spread out, leave an open space in the middle!"

The three of Hu Qiaotong immediately commanded the array to disperse, leaving an open space of more than 30 meters in the middle.

Long Chen directed the tester to carefully move the two jars of explosives to the middle and put them away.

Then I found armor and wooden figures and placed them around, just like I showed the empress last time.

When everything was ready, the tester ran over and said, "Everything is ready!"

Long Chen nodded, and said to the female soldiers in the audience: "This is the new weapon invented by this king, Huolei!"

"This king will show you the power of this new weapon!"

Long Chen glanced at the tester, who immediately trotted over, lit the incense of the explosives, and then ran back quickly.

Gongsun Linglong ordered the army to retreat another 20 meters.

With a distance of 50 meters, everyone quietly looked at the thing in the middle.

They were very curious about what Long Chen was going to show them.

Time passed little by little, and everyone was waiting.

boom!

Suddenly there was a loud noise, the incense burnt out, the jar exploded, and the surrounding armor and wooden figures were blown up.

The female soldier screamed in fright at the sudden loud noise.

"What is this, so loud?"

"The armor was actually shattered and flew up."

"This power is more terrifying than the bed crossbow."

"The bed crossbow is only powerful in penetrating power, this thing blew up the armor."

"What exactly is this?"

"King Wu said just now, it's Huolei."

"What is Fire Thunder?"

"how could I know."

When the female soldiers were discussing a lot, Long Chen spoke again and said: "What you saw just now is the Huolei I was talking about!"

"General Gongsun, let them demonstrate the flintlock."

Gongsun Linglong immediately asked the shooters to set up the target, and then stood side by side, raising their flintlock guns to aim.

A short flintlock gun that looked like a fire stick was aimed at a distant target.

The female soldier looked at the flintlock gun with great interest, and began to discuss again:

"What is this? A crossbow?"

"No, I didn't see the bowstrings and crossbow arrows."

"What's that? It's like a blow dart."

"It's not blowing arrows. Blowing arrows must be blown with the mouth to blow the arrow away."

The shooter was ready and aimed at the target.

Gongsun Linglong gave the order: "Shoot!"

clap clap...

There was a crackling gunshot, and a puff of smoke from the flintlock made it look more like a poker.

The sound of gunfire covered up the sound of the iron bullet hitting the target. Everyone didn't notice the change of the target, and they were all attracted by the flintlock.

"This thing looks like fun."

"It's a bit like firecrackers, but what's the use?"

Firecrackers are the explosions made when bamboo is burned, and it sounds a bit like it.

"I didn't see the crossbow shot, what's going on?"

"I don't know, I didn't see it either."

Hearing their discussion, Gongsun Linglong pointed to the target in the distance and said, "This is called a flintlock gun. What it shoots are not crossbow arrows, but iron bullets. The target has been hit and penetrated."

"Hu Qiaotong, the three of you bring the target over and show it to everyone!"

The three of Hu Qiaotong immediately ran over and brought the target over.

Only then did everyone realize that the target had really been penetrated.

"It was really penetrated, I didn't see anything just now."

"This weapon is too terrifying, killing people invisible."

"Yeah, I don't know what happened when I was shot."

"Will this kind of thing be our weapon in the future?"

Seeing everyone's envious expressions, Long Chen stood on the general platform and said to everyone: "This is called a flintlock, and it will be the weapon of the Musketeers in the future."

"Flintlock guns also use gunpowder. Instead of crossbow bolts, they shoot iron bullets, which can penetrate armor and kill people invisible!"

"Thunderbolts and flintlock guns, these terrifying new things will be your new weapons in the future."

When they got here, everyone finally believed what Long Chen said.

With such a weapon that they have never seen before, it is really no problem to become the strongest army.

"So that's why we came here!"

Everyone felt suddenly enlightened, no wonder they had to be so mysterious and closed up for training.

Long Chen said to everyone: "This is your first lesson, which is to know the weapons you will use!"

"Then next, according to your respective teams, the coach of Linglong Pavilion will explain the knowledge of flintlock guns and gunpowder to you."

The expert who tested the musket in Linglong Pavilion is now the coach of the new army.

Long Chen has only one person, it is impossible to train the whole army.

Gongsun Linglong immediately asked Hu Qiaotong to divide the team, and then divide the testers according to the number of people, and the training of the new army officially began.
