Zhao Rui laughed wildly. Although 50,000 people was not many, the victory continued.
The fact that a fleet of thirty ships can successfully arrive here proves that the waterway from Luo City to here has been completely dredged. The next step will be a fleet of fifty, eighty, or even hundreds of ships!
As long as this war can continue, this waterway can flow unobstructed, and it can also give back to the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to a great extent, making their lives more prosperous.
At the same time, business communication between the north and the south can become more frequent!
Zhao Rui didn't hesitate at all and immediately let the 50,000 troops enter between the barriers.
Of course, it is clear that these people came from afar and must be too exhausted to join the battle within the time required.
However, many simple resting places were built on top of this barrier, where they could rest and recuperate directly.
Not long after, the Mauryan army came to the city again. This time the number was twice as many as last time, and the leader was an army wearing heavy armor.
Everyone in this army is tall and exudes a fierce aura. They should be elites who have been fighting all year round.
Although there are only 50,000 people in total, they exude an aura as if there are 700,000 to 800,000 people standing there.
Zhao Rui's face was full of disdain. In his opinion, these guys were just looking for death.
The fleet that came this time not only transported soldiers and supplies, but also a large amount of weapons and equipment, mainly long-range crossbows, artillery and arrows.
Soldiers don't even need to go out to fight, they can cause damage to the enemy on a large scale.
This cannon and arrow is a newly developed weapon by Dashang's top craftsmen.
It is to slightly modify the gunpowder used to make fireworks and firecrackers, and then combine it with crossbow arrows.
As long as the fuse is lit, the arrow can fly thousands of steps.
This thing is much more powerful than an ordinary crossbow!
The most powerful weapon that Dashang can produce now is the machine crossbow. The production of this thing is extremely complicated and the materials required are also quite demanding.
However, its range and power are quite powerful. The farthest range can reach three thousand steps, and the arrows used are more than ten times thicker than ordinary crossbow arrows.
Not only can it penetrate the enemy's heavy armor within three thousand steps, it can even cut the enemy into two pieces.
Nowadays, there are hundreds of similar machine tools and crossbows on this barrier.
Now they have cannons and arrows made of gunpowder, which greatly enhances their defense capabilities.
The power of this kind of artillery arrows is second only to the machine crossbow, and it can shoot thousands of arrows at one time.
Bai Hua was very excited when he saw these things. When he was in Luo City, he was very concerned about the research and development of new weapons and often went to Tianji Pavilion to inquire.
I didn't expect that it would be successfully developed so quickly and sent to the front line.
But Zhao Rui was not as excited as him, but looked at the weapon in front of him thoughtfully.
"Your Highness, now that we have such good weapons and the city's defense has been greatly enhanced, why do you look unhappy?"
Zhao Rui coughed twice: "It's not that I'm unhappy, but I thought of an extremely powerful weapon!"
Bai Hua suddenly became interested: "Is it more powerful than these crossbow arrows?"
