Chapter 356 They are descendants of the Xiao clan
“It’s actually possible to shoot so many arrows at once!”
"Swish, swish, swish! In the blink of an eye, all the arrows were shot out, like a rain of arrows!"
"One person can have such an effect. Wouldn't it be even more exciting if a group of people used this super-rapid crossbow together... the shocking scene is exciting just thinking about it."
The ministers present were very excited. Shangguan Zhenhua ran to the target first and carefully checked the arrows.
"Every arrow hits the target!"
"Such a long distance, such a powerful shooting force, good, good, great!"
"It's really a magical weapon!"
Shangguan Zhenhua was full of praise.
General Mo, who tried the super-rapid crossbow, was also pleasantly surprised. He walked towards the extra-large bed crossbow and wanted to test its power.
Shangguan Zhenhua rushed to the bed crossbow first and said, "Let me try it. Let me try it. Leave it to me."
General Mo failed to snatch the weapon from Shangguan Zhenhua, and the right to use the bed crossbow fell into Shangguan Zhenhua's hands.
After seeing the power of the super-rapid crossbow, everyone became more curious about the power of the bed crossbow, and they were all nervous and expectant.
Shangguan Zhenhua randomly found a direction and shot out the huge crossbow arrow.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh 1
Four sounds of breaking through the air were heard, and the crossbow fired arrows continuously, cutting through the air and shooting towards four big trees a thousand meters away.
After a while, four soldiers came running from a thousand meters away, shouting: "Hit, hit!"
The arrow not only hit the tree, but also pierced through it with great force, leaving a smoking hole in the tree that required five people to hug.
After hearing the soldiers' words, all the ministers were excited again. Emperor Yuanwu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling and wanted to go and take a look in person.
All the ministers followed and looked at the big tree.
Only after seeing the holes in the four big trees with their own eyes did everyone deeply feel the power of the extra-large crossbow.
"Strong! Too strong! It can have such an effect at such a long distance. It is much stronger than the crossbow made by the Han tribe!"
The bed crossbow made by the Han people has a maximum shooting distance of 500 meters, and its power and range are not as good as the extra-large bed crossbow.
You are truly worthy of being the descendants of the ancient Xiao clan. This time you are the number one family in the world specializing in mechanical engineering, and this is the number one family in the world specializing in weapon forging!
The last weapon is the black ball.
This black ball looked ordinary, and the people present had no idea how powerful it could be.
"The black ball is a little dangerous when used. Be careful, otherwise you might hurt your own people." Xiao Wenhai held a black ball and pointed to a small hill not far away and said, "Let's use that hill for the experiment! Everyone, step back and be careful not to get hurt by mistake!"
After everyone retreated to a safe distance, Xiao Wenhai took out a fire starter, lit the fuse, and threw the black ball hard onto the hillside.
A few seconds later, there was a loud bang and the ground shook a few times.
Emperor Yuanwu and his ministers were shocked and subconsciously covered their ears. They saw smoke and flying gravel on the other side of the hill. When the smoke cleared, a pit appeared on the hillside.
Emperor Yuanwu and his ministers hurried up to check, and when they saw the tragic scene on the hillside, they all gasped.
"What a terrifying power! If it landed on a person, it would blow the person into pieces!"
"It's like thunder from heaven!"
"That loud noise just now, wasn't it thunder?"
"This thing shouldn't be called a black ball, it should be called a thunder and fire ball!"
"With this thunder and fire ball, my Yuan Dynasty army is invincible!"
The trial results of the three new weapons made Emperor Yuanwu extremely excited and shocked. He tightly grasped Xiao Jingxuan's arms and said, "King Pingshan, I want to reward you. You have made great contributions!"
"With these three magical weapons, our dynasty no longer needs to fear anyone. If Beiyi and Fuso dare to attack us again, we will make sure they never return!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty, for obtaining three magical weapons!" All the ministers knelt down to congratulate, their faces filled with excitement that they could not hide.
"Pass on my order. No one is allowed to tell anyone about what happened today. If anyone dares to reveal even a word to the outside world and disclose the secrets of our dynasty, all nine generations of the clan will be executed!"
"We will never leak a single word to anyone!" Shangguan Zhenhua and General Mo were the first to kneel down and kowtow.
The rest of the ministers, guards and generals also knelt down and promised to keep silent about what happened today.
Xiao Wenhai and a dozen others were assigned to the sword-making workshop and officially became royal craftsmen.
Those tribesmen who are still in Qingquan Village will not come to the capital for the time being. They will establish their own team of craftsmen in the Xiao clan.
There are some Han craftsmen in the sword-making workshop. The craftsmen are also divided into levels, including apprentices, juniors, intermediates and seniors. The Han craftsmen are all senior craftsmen. They not only make weapons for the royal family, but also bring their own apprentices. After these apprentices become masters, they are royal craftsmen on the surface, but in fact they believe in the Han people.
Seeing that twelve new craftsmen had come to the sword-making workshop and were assigned to the positions of senior craftsmen right after their arrival, the craftsmen in the sword-making workshop were shocked and angry.
"How could this random person become a senior craftsman right after arriving? I have worked in the sword-making workshop for three years and I was still just a junior craftsman!" A brave man said it out loud.
The owner of the sword-making workshop is a confidant carefully cultivated by Emperor Yuanwu. Although his skill in forging weapons is ordinary, his management ability is strong. The Han craftsmen cannot cover the sky with one hand in the sword-making workshop.
The master of the workshop glanced at the junior craftsman and sneered, "Are you a tiny ant worthy of being compared with the masters of the Xiao clan?"
The Han craftsmen were stunned when they heard this. One craftsman stepped forward and asked, "Master, are the Xiao masters you are talking about these twelve?"
The master glanced at him and said, "Yes, it is them. As the craftsmen of the sword forging workshop, you cannot be unaware of the Xiao clan."
All the craftsmen present were surprised and looked at Xiao Wenhai and the other twelve.
Xiao Wenhai clasped his fists and said to them, "This is our first meeting. I haven't introduced myself to you all yet. I'm Xiao Wenhai, the 26th generation descendant of the Xiao clan."
"Xiao Yonghe is the 27th generation descendant of the Xiao clan."
"I am Xiao Yongbin, the first of the Xiao clan..."
"..."
The craftsmen were all stunned.
The Xiao clan had disappeared for so many years, and various countries had searched for them for years but found nothing. But now they suddenly appeared before them, becoming craftsmen of the Yuan Dynasty royal family.
These descendants of the Xiao clan all look very young. What abilities can they have?
It’s incredible!
The people in the sword forge were full of suspicion, but the descendants of the Xiao clan were found by the emperor and were arranged by the emperor himself. No matter how suspicious they were, they did not dare to speak out loud at the moment and could only discuss it in private.
After Xiao Wenhai and the twelve others introduced themselves, the workshop owner picked out hundreds of craftsmen and asked Xiao Wenhai and the others to lead them.
Among these one hundred craftsmen, not a single one was of the Korean ethnic group.
Their ranks varied, and they were very dissatisfied with being assigned to work under newcomers like Xiao Wenhai.
But they did not dare to disobey the abbot's orders.
When the descendants of the Xiao clan appeared in the sword-making workshop, they were brought back to the Han clan by the craftsmen of the Han clan.
