The next day, in the wee hours of the morning.
"Wei Emperor!"
The Ministers had woken up early in the morning and gathered at the city gates to welcome the triumphant return of the Cao Army. All of them bowed at Cao Cao's feet.
Bai Feng was no exception. He bowed to Cao Cao.
"Hahahahaha!"
When Cao Cao saw Bai Feng, he laughed heartily.
"You did not disappoint me!"
"Everything was under your control. We took down Hanzhong and Bashu effortlessly!"
"In the past, I wouldn't even dare to think about this!"
Cao Cao's actions immediately attracted many envious gazes from Bai Feng.
After all, Cao Cao had ignored everyone when he came back and went straight to Bai Feng. He even praised him.
However, Bai Feng could not be bothered with these people.
They could think whatever they wanted. It would not affect him anyway.
The most they could do was think of ways to badmouth him behind his back.
Although the power of rumors was terrifying, he still had to see what kind of rumors they were.
Bai Feng did not think that he had done anything wrong to Dawei.
Moreover, everything depended on strength.
Once the food was ready, with grenades and firearms, these people would definitely shut up.
"Sir, didn't you say that you have a surprise for me?"
After dismissing the Ministers, Cao Cao grabbed Bai Feng's hand and walked down the street with a smile.
He asked as he walked.
"Wei Emperor, don't worry. I've already prepared a gift for you."
"It's right in front."
Bai Feng smiled faintly.
Cao Cao smiled.
"Excellent, excellent!"
"Let me see what kind of surprise it is!"
With that, Cao Cao put his hands behind his back and walked with Bai Feng to the military factory.
"Hmm? When was this built? "
Cao Cao could not help but be confused.
What was going on?
He had only left Xu Chang for a month, so how did such a huge building appear out of nowhere?
Previously, this military factory was indeed rather simple and crude.
However, as the number of craftsmen increased, the requirements for the environment also increased.
After all, in order to create such an intricate object, it couldn't be too simple.
Therefore, Bai Feng hired a lot of workers to renovate the place.
Although the entire military factory was located in an inconspicuous place in Xuchang, it was able to attract everyone's attention.
Cao Cao was no exception. He was stunned by the huge building.
Although Bai Feng had told him about it before, he had never seen such a big thing.
Meanwhile, Cao Chun, Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan hurriedly followed behind as they were deeply afraid of falling behind.
After all, they were responsible for Cao Cao's safety.
Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, Xun Yu, and Xun You followed closely behind.
When Ma Jun saw this, he immediately recognized Cao Cao and bowed.
"Greetings, Your Highness Wei Emperor."
Cao Cao was taken aback.
"This person is …"
Bai Feng smiled.
"This is my right-hand man, Ma Jun. He's a master craftsman."
Cao Cao had naturally never heard of Ma Jun's name.
However, to be called a master by Bai Feng, he had to be a talent.
Therefore, Cao Cao was even more eager to see what he would see next.
The equipment, environment, and busy craftsmen here made Cao Cao even more curious.
"Let's show His Highness the grenade first."
Bai Feng said with a faint smile.
Ma Jun hurriedly accepted the order and led his right-hand man to the factory's testing ground with a basket of grenades.
"What is this?"
Cao Cao had never seen a grenade before. It looked just like a metal ball.
Cao Cao couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Sir, is this the gift you're going to give me?"
"It doesn't look special at all."
Bai Feng smiled faintly.
"Wei Emperor, please wait a moment. I'll demonstrate it immediately."
When they heard Bai Feng's words, Cao Cao and the others walked up to the stage doubtfully and waited for Ma Jun to demonstrate.
Cao Chun and Cao Ren didn't know what Bai Feng was going to do.
It was just a small metal ball. What could it do?
Then, Ma Jun threw the grenade in his hand.
Everyone was even more puzzled when they saw this confusing behavior.
But right after that, they were shocked.
"Boom!"
A loud sound filled their ears.
"Heavenly Thunder, it's Heavenly Thunder!?"
Cao Chun suddenly shouted. He was about to draw his saber when he stood in front of Cao Cao.
"Protect the Prime Minister!"
Cao Cao was also shocked.
"This …"
"What's going on?!"
When the smoke dissipated, everyone was dumbfounded.
Where were all the sandbags just now? Why were they all gone?
It wasn't until they saw the sandbags that they realized what had happened.
The previously bulging sandbag was now full of holes, and the sand had already flowed out in an instant!
Not only that, there was a huge crater in the test site where the explosion had occurred.
The crater was dark around it, as if it had been struck by lightning.
"Wei Emperor, this is a grenade. It was directly ignited and thrown around the enemy."
Bai Feng explained calmly.
Cao Cao couldn't help but gasp.
"Grenade?!"
"How can there be such a terrifying thing?"
"If this thing was thrown into the enemy and caused such a huge explosion, wouldn't they end up like the sandbags?"
Bai Feng said calmly.
"Not only that, the sandbags are much thicker than the people wearing armor."
"If there were a crowd, this grenade could easily kill hundreds of people."
Hearing Bai Feng's words, the generals and civil officials were dumbfounded.
What?!
Such a small metal ball could easily kill hundreds of people?
Even the top generals in the world didn't have such strength!
Killing hundreds of people in an instant?
If they had heard this before, they wouldn't have believed it.
。
However, the truth was right in front of them.
Such a huge crater and the sandbags were deflated, and the impact was so far away.
Even the walls, which were so far away, were embedded with steel balls.
This …
This wasn't impossible!
"Divine artifact, it really is a divine artifact!"
Cao Chun exclaimed excitedly.
As someone who had been on the battlefield for a long time, how could he not know what would happen if such a heaven-defying item was thrown into the battlefield?
If such an explosion were to happen, not to mention a hundred people, as long as it was quoted, it would not be a problem for two to three hundred people!
"Is … is there only one of this divine artifact? Isn't it too wasteful?! "
Cao Cao asked anxiously.
Ma Jun cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry.
"Don't worry, King Wei. Under Milord's leadership, we have already produced close to 300 pills."
"There will be more in the future. As long as there is no shortage of iron ore and gunpowder, we can keep producing!"
Keep producing? Such a powerful weapon?
Everyone was shocked. Xun Yu and Xun You almost couldn't stand still.
They finally knew what Bai Feng had been doing all this time!
