Arhan knew that success or failure depended on this move. No matter how eloquent he was, even if his words could move Ju Wentai's heart, with Ju Wentai's nature, if someone persuaded him, Ju Wentai would definitely change his mind and be unable to make up his mind.
Therefore, he needed a weapon to deter him.
With the deterrence of grenades and other weapons, Ju Wentai would not have any other thoughts.
Arhan said, "My lord, this weapon is extremely powerful, like a thunderclap. Once it's tested in the palace, it will probably cause a commotion in the entire city. At that time, there will be an uproar in the court and it will cause unnecessary trouble. "It's best to test it in the beast forest west of the imperial city, so as not to cause any commotion."
The beast forest was a gathering place for many ornamental animals.
It was quite a distance away from the palace.
Moreover, in the forest, the impact would not be too great.
Ju Wentai thought about it carefully, and without any hesitation, he immediately chose to agree. He walked out of the palace with Alhan, and then together with Banda and Xu Yang, Alhan went straight to the Beast Forest to the west of the palace.
Not long after, about a quarter of an hour, the group entered the forest.
Ju Wentai stopped and said, "Imperial Preceptor, there is no one around the beast forest now, you can test it."
Around them were Ju Wentai's soldiers.
Ju Wentai was not afraid.
He was not worried about what Ju Wentai would think.
Arhan took out a grenade first and pointed at it. "My lord, this is a grenade, please take a look."
When he was in Yiwu County, Arhan had learned how to operate a grenade, so he was not unfamiliar with it. He unscrewed the bottom cover of the grenade and pulled the fuse hard. The grenade ignited, and Arhan threw it out like lightning.
He knew how powerful this weapon was.
If it exploded in his hands, it would be terrible.
Arhan hurriedly said, "My lord, cover your ears."
Ju Wentai did not care. He did not think there was anything to be afraid of. Moreover, Arhan had said that it was like a thunderclap. Even if the heavenly lightning struck, it would not have much effect.
Seeing this, Arhan shook his head and sneered.
"Bang!"
The grenade fell to the ground.
"Boom!!"
The next moment, an explosion sounded.
The explosion was deafening. The soil on the ground splashed, and even the ground seemed to shake. Although the pit on the ground was not big, the explosion and the splashing soil stunned Ju Wentai.
Ju Wentai's butt slumped onto the ground.
His face was filled with shock.
His brain was buzzing.
Ju Wentai's heart was thumping non-stop. He looked at the location of the explosion and was incomparably shocked. He did not expect the explosion to be so powerful.
It was not an exaggeration to say that it was like a thunderclap.
In fact, he was even more powerful.
The soldiers at the side were also scared half to death. Each of them had a look of horror on their faces. Even Banda and Xu Yang, Arkham's two trusted aides, were the same.
They were all dumbfounded.
Arhan helped Yuwen Tai up and said, "Your Majesty, this is only one of them. Now that you are mentally prepared, I will experiment with the second weapon, the landmine. This weapon is not as powerful as a grenade, but it has a wide range of uses. "
Ju Wentai said, "Come, come, give it a try."
At this moment, although Ju Wentai was afraid, he was also curious.
What else was there?
Arkham went up and buried the mine, and let the soldiers drive the animals forward, and stepped on it with the animals. In particular, a cow was driven over and stepped on it, causing an explosion.
In an instant, the cow was sent flying and fell to the ground. It was already dead.
A large crater appeared on the ground.
As for the mud that flew everywhere, they were all used to it. It was an extremely normal situation.
Ju Wentai had some tolerance, so he was not affected for the time being. Even so, Ju Wentai's heart was still filled with terror.
Although Ju Wentai had a weak personality and was hesitant in doing things, he was actually very smart. He thought carefully, and suddenly, his expression changed. The reason was simple. Once Du Qi buried this weapon in the path of the army, it would block the army's path.
As long as there was a landmine, no one would dare to move forward.
Because once they stepped on it, they would definitely die. This kind of weapon, like the grenade from before, could be of great use. In Ju Wentai's mind, he even imagined his own soldiers fighting against Du Qi's army. After a wave of grenade bombardment, countless soldiers under his command were killed or injured.
Gulp!
Ju Wentai swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He recovered slightly and looked at Arkham with a solemn expression. "What's next?"
Arkham said, "It's gunpowder, also known as gunpowder packs or explosive packs."
Compared to grenades and landmines, gunpowder packs were bigger, but the fuse was also longer. Arkham had people dig a hole and put the gunpowder packs in it. Then, he pulled out the fuse.
After all, Arkham was old. The fuse he pulled out was six feet long.
This length allowed Arkham to retreat calmly after igniting it. Arkham came to Ju Wentai's side and said, "Your Majesty, retreat. You have to retreat another thirty steps."
He retreated directly!
Ju Wentai did not dare to be brave and immediately retreated. After retreating thirty steps, he saw Arkham covering his ears. He followed suit and covered his ears.
"Bang! Bang! "
The fuse burned quickly, and the distance between it and the gunpowder packs was getting closer.
Boom!
The sound of an explosion rang out.
Under the red light of the fire, soil flew and hit the surrounding ground. When the smoke and dust dissipated, a large pit of several feet appeared in Ju Wentai's sight.
This time, the amount of gunpowder was much larger.
The power of the explosion was also stronger.
At this time, Ju Wentai's expression changed again and again. Because he never thought that the power of the explosion would be so great. Compared to the explosion of landmines and grenades, the explosion of gunpowder was simply earth-shattering.
Not only did the ground tremble, but the firepower was also unparalleled. Just imagine, if it exploded in a crowd, there would be countless deaths and injuries. At this moment, Ju Wentai's heart sank to the bottom. There was no longer any hope.
Too strong!
Not only was Du Qi's economic strength stronger, but his military strength was also not weak.
Now that Du Qi had such a weapon, it was simply invincible. If Gaochang State wanted to become enemies with Du Qi, it would be courting death. There was no way to stop him.
When Arkham saw Ju Wentai's expression, he sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I have seen Du Qi's weapon and was intimidated by him. Who would be able to resist a person who possessed such a divine weapon? Moreover, Du Qi's strength is not weak. With such a weapon, Gaochang State will not be able to resist him. If you resist, you will only be courting death. "
"Sigh …"
When Ju Wentai heard this, he could not help but sigh. He no longer had any thoughts of resistance. Previously, he was still unwilling, but now, he no longer had such thoughts.
Going against Du Qi was courting death.
He did not want to die and his race to be exterminated.
