Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 385

Chapter 385 Five Hundred Fiery Gods

A caravan of ordinary colors slowly walked through the dense old woods with mountains and rivers. It was rather mysterious. This place was already dozens of miles away from Lanzhou City and even from the nearest herdsmen’s settlement.

After two days of dull traveling, Wu Meiniang’s interest in traveling was almost wiped out. After noon, the summer was heavy, and the carriage was still bumpy. Wu Meiniang hid in Qin Mubai’s arms and fell asleep in a daze.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped. Qin Mubai patted Wu Meiniang in his arms and said, “Here we are. Get up!”

“Where are you?”

“You’ll know when you get out of the car.”

After getting off the car, Wu Meiniang’s first reaction was horror!

Although she was young, Wu Meiniang, who had experienced the storms of the business world for many years, rarely made such an expression.

It wasn’t just Wu Meiniang, even Qin Mubai was amazed by the scene in front of him!

After returning to Iron Valley more than a year later, this place seemed to have changed!

Ten miles away, it was still an extension of the primeval forest, the boundless grasslands, and the Gobi Desert. Here, however, there were a lot of traffic on the platform. Everywhere he looked, it was like a paradise, and there were quite a few unfamiliar “steel beasts”!

“This … is this the Outer Realm?” Wu Meiniang said in shock.

“Iron Valley.” The corners of Qin Mubai’s mouth twitched slightly as he said, “Apart from the people in the Iron Valley and my trusted guards, you are the first imitation guest to come here.”

“Iron Valley? What is it for?” Wu Meiniang asked in shock, and then said, “Could it be … that I made those cannons for you?”

“Absolutely right.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Who would have thought? In just two to three years, I have transformed an ordinary mine into this state. Now, there are nearly a thousand people living here. He was originally going to be the director of the Left Correctional Department and directly command the Iron Valley. His rank is already at the third rank of the rank. The Marquis is is not much inferior to a prime minister.”

Just as he was speaking, a huge iron box door that was more than 40 feet tall slowly rose up in the midst of a loud rumbling sound. Immediately after, two groups of about 200 foot soldiers rushed out from the left and right. They were dressed in colorful robes and red armor, and they were majestic and majestic.

Wu Meiniang noticed that apart from the highest-ranking weapons and armors of the Tang army, each of the soldiers had a long toy with an iron pipe and wooden support on their shoulders, which was very eye-catching. So she asked, “Muming, what are these soldiers carrying on their shoulders?”

Qin Mubai laughed heartily.

At this time, the two groups of armored guards quickly mounted a horse. It was the Iron Valley’s Valley Master, Tu Youhai.

“This lowly position is Tu Youhai. Welcome, Young General! … Young General Xu has arrived again after a few years. This lowly position is too far away. Death! Death!” After many days, Tu Youhai had gained quite a bit of weight. He thought that he was still living quite well in the Iron Valley.

Behind Qin Mubai, the Hundred Cavalry confidant guard smiled and said, “Mr. Tu, it’s time for you to change your address to ‘Young Admiral’ or ‘Chief Admiral’.”

“Oh?” Tu Youhai’s face instantly revealed joy. “Young Marshal has been promoted again since we last saw each other? It’s truly a joyous occasion to congratulate him!”

“Haha!” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “It’s only the latest matter. I haven’t had time to inform you. Judging from the situation, I haven’t cared about the Iron Valley for more than a year. You’ve really managed it well. Even the firearm is officially equipped.”

“Everything depends on Major Marshal’s guidance. We only draw the ladle according to the pattern. Naturally, it will be easy!” Tu Youhai smiled and said, “These 180 firerope gunmen have been trained for more than a month. They can use them freely and skillfully. They can be put to use.”

“Fire God? Fire God Ravaged? Fire God Spear?” Wu Meiniang asked in surprise, “What is this?”

“Fire God? That’s interesting, haha! You’ll know later.” Qin Mubai took Wu Meiniang’s hand and smiled, “Mr. Tu, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Wu Meiniang.”

“So it’s the young marshal’s wife. Disrespectful, disrespectful!” Tu Youhai immediately respected Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang’s expression did not change, but her heart was filled with joy.

There was no woman who did not want her man to introduce her to others like this, and Wu Meiniang was no exception.

“Alright, I haven’t been here for more than a year. It’s time for me to go into the valley and take a look. Let me first take a look at your latest research, the Fiery God Spear!”

“Yes!”

Tu Youhai promised, and the cavalry heard the order and galloped into the valley. Very quickly, they arrived at the huge stone field.

The big boss of the Iron Valley’s backstage had officially arrived, and the entire valley was in a tight formation.

When Qin Mubai and Wu Meiniang sat down, dozens of cannons of different sizes and sizes were listed in front of them. The cavalry also formed a fish scale formation and prepared to conduct military exercises.

Wu Meiniang looked at the situation in front of her and was secretly speechless. She had long heard of Qin Mubai using 200 gunners to recover Da Feichuan and the existence of the red cannon. However, when she personally saw the objects in front of her that could not appear in her imagination, her heart was shocked as if she had personally seen a deity in the Heavenly Court Palace.

The musketeers began to perform.

Wu Meiniang widened her eyes, fearing that she would miss a single piece of information. She saw that a hundred steps in front of these gunmen, there were no ordinary arrow targets, but huge stones. The line of gunmen stepped forward and lit the lead at the butt of the rifle. A series of sounds and smoke came out. All the barrels of the rifle were aimed at the front, and the soldiers aimed at the rifle butt.

Immediately after, a series of explosions rang out, and smoke erupted. After the gunmen finished firing, they immediately retreated, followed by a row that followed them smoothly and immediately launched.

The huge pile of rocks in front of him emitted a fierce collision sound, causing debris to fly everywhere.

Apparently, the firearm had indeed been successfully developed, and these archers were quite well-trained. In Qin Mubai’s memories, the firearm was the ancestor of modern firearms. A well-trained musketeer could fire two or three times in a minute. These people in front of him had practically reached their limits.

Actually, to Qin Mubai, the scene in front of him was a bit primitive and funny, but this thing should have appeared in Europe hundreds of years later. In a few hundred years, the descendants of the European and American powers had broken through the gate of the Qing Dynasty and started to trample on China.

“More than a thousand years of time travel, more than a thousand years of technology … This is the right way to ascend!” Qin Mubai raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled. “Right now, I have no soldiers, no food, no money, no power. If I don’t use technology to make up for it, wouldn’t I be waiting for death?” Firerope Gun, you appeared in time! Although I really want you to equip the M16 to accompany me in conquering the Western Regions, that is simply too unrealistic. Firerope Spear was already the peak of perfection for the Great Tang. As for how to develop and improve in the future, it is not something I, Qin, can control by myself. I am only responsible for kicking the wheel of history, how it rolls is its business! A madman who fears nothing but chaos? Perhaps! How many people could do such a thing? Haha! ”

“Mubai … I feel that this thing in front of me is perhaps even more vicious than the red cannon!” Wu Meiniang looked at Qin Mubai with that shocked gaze and said, “Because it … can carry on its shoulders and walk with others. If there were a thousand musketeers in such a formation, no matter how ferocious the Hu scimitar cavalry were, they wouldn’t be able to get close!”-Look, those hard boulders were smashed into pieces! If their flesh and blood were hit, they would definitely die instantly! ”

Qin Mubai gently nodded his head as he looked ahead. Suddenly, he stood up and shouted, “Coated with sea! I want three thousand firerope guns!”

“Ah, three thousand?!” Tu Youhai was stunned! –Don’t say three thousand, just one or two hundred spears in front of him. This made the people in the Iron Valley busy day and night for nearly a year before they could finish the blood retting.

“Yes, three thousand!” Qin Mubai said unquestionably, and said word by word, “Speak, how long will it take?”

“At least … three years!”

“No, I’ll give you at most three months!”

Tu Youhai was dumbfounded, cold sweat dripping down his face-wasn’t this killing him? Even if he wanted to die, he wouldn’t be able to rush out! Don’t underestimate this seemingly simple firearm. A mere barrel is enough to grind people! In fact, it was even harder to make such a gun than to forge a cannon!

“Young Admiral, this lowly one dares to say that even if the entire Iron Valley were to work desperately, they would only be able to produce 300 firearms in three months!”

“Alright, three hundred is three hundred.” Qin Mubai suddenly agreed and immediately said, “But within three years, I want three thousand!”

“Yes!” Tu Youhai almost gritted his teeth and agreed!

This was probably the first time since he followed Qin Mubai, “reluctantly.” However, he understood Qin Mubai’s character. If it weren’t for his insistence, Qin Mubai would never have made things difficult for his subordinates. At this moment, he could only barely endure it and fight to the death. Even though he was now a third-grade cultivator, he was still a disciple of Qin Mubai.

He understood the principle of raising leisure for a thousand days in one dynasty.

“Three months later, I want five hundred Fire Gods.” Qin Mubai’s sword-brows furrowed as he looked into the sky, as if he was talking to himself, as if he was speaking to Wu Meiniang and Tu Youhai. He said, “Come down to the mortal world together, follow me … step through hell and conquer heaven!”

“Break through hell, conquer heaven” Wu Meiniang took a deep breath and whispered, “Mubai, I know why you brought me here.”

Qin Mubai smiled and turned around, “Tell me?”

“I know what to do.” Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly and whispered, “I want to start making money desperately. It’s best if I’m rich. Because not only do you need to raise horses and prepare grain, you also need to worship the Fire God!”

Qin Mubai smiled and didn’t say anything. The two of them looked at each other, their hearts withered.

“Mubai, you’re like an iron bullet fired by the Fire God” Wu Meiniang suddenly sighed with emotion.

“What do you mean?” Qin Mubai couldn’t help but ask with a smile.

“Spirit, sharpness, determination to move forward is irresistible.” Wu Meiniang said, “This is also what Meiniang loves about you. If a man loses his spirit and sharpness, he is like a tiger without its claws in a cage. Success or failure is determined by heaven, but spirit and sharpness are not judged by success or failure. If it is just tenderness and gentleness, I will definitely choose Zheng Anshun. I like the wild and unrestrained side of you!”

‘”For example?” Qin Mubai almost felt his beast blood boil again.

“You’re not serious … and you don’t care about occasions?”
