Chapter 487
Everyone is looking forward to the second horse racing, but not everyone is looking forward to watching horse racing. Some people want to see Su Cheng's gun even more.
For example, the Tubo official Lu Dongzan.
He had seen the artillery of the Tang Dynasty, and his range and power left a deep memory. He was shocked whenever he thought of him.
He and Zamp also felt pressured because of the artillery, because the artillery would make the Tang Dynasty's military strength higher.
When he came to the Tang Dynasty again, he heard another news that shocked him.
Su Cheng, the Duke of Ankang County, actually built a new firearm called musket. It is said that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and a number of important officials praised it, believing it to be a national weapon that surpassed artillery!
After hearing this news, Lu Dongzan could not believe it. He had witnessed the power of the cannon with his own eyes. How powerful is the musket, which was actually considered by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to surpass the cannon?
After repeated inquiries, he had to believe that it was not a secret that the strength of the musket was in the court.
The only thing he was curious about was what the musket looks like? What is its power? What is its range? Are there any disadvantages?
However, it is difficult for him to find out too specific information, and it is even more impossible to see a musket.
But he never expected that he would see muskets on the racetrack.
I heard that Su Cheng once killed the Japanese samurai with a short musket, and it must be this musket.
Lu Dongzan looked at the musket in Su Cheng's hand greedily, trying to explore the secret of the musket, but he couldn't see anything at all.
Because Su Cheng's musket was launched towards the sky, he could not even see the power range or other.
Not only Lu Dongzan, other envoys also paid great attention to the muskets in Su Cheng's hand.
Bang!
The muskets sounded, and amid the shocking shouts, twenty horses neighed out. This round of competition was even more intense than the previous round.
But one person was a little absent-minded about the horse racing. Princess Zhenzhu drove the horse to Su Cheng's side, and her eyes kept looking at the musket in Su Cheng's hand.
When Su Cheng first fired, Princess Zhenzhu was attracted by the musket.
What is this? Princess Zhenzhu was full of curiosity.
But when she thought of her sending a war letter to Su Cheng, she felt embarrassed to come forward and ask, but in the end she was curious and defeated everything.
"Mr. Ankang County, what is this in your hand?" Princess Zhenzhu asked curiously.
Su Cheng turned his head and glanced at Princess Zhenzhu and said with a smile: "Guess!"
Seeing Su Cheng who turned his head and stared at the horse racing, Princess Zhenzhu wanted to hit his smiling face with a fist.
It's so annoying!
If she knew what this was, would she come over and ask?
Seeing the knights crossing the finish line, Su Cheng turned his head and asked with a smile: "How is it? What about my Tang Dynasty men? The princes with noble identities should appear soon. Are you looking forward to it?"
A bright smile appeared on Princess Zhenzhu's face and said with a crisp voice: "Guess?"
Su Cheng looked black on his forehead, and he raised the musket in his hand helplessly and explained: "This is a musket!"
Princess Zhenzhu suddenly said, "Is this a musket?"
Su Cheng nodded and said, "Well, the special short musket is easy to carry."
Princess Zhenzhu looked eager to try: "Can I give it a try?"
Su Cheng said angrily: "Of course not!"
What a joke, the emperor is still on the stage! Although the emperor is a bit far away from here, if Princess Zhenzhu fired a shot in the direction of the emperor, no one can bear the blame!
Not to mention the emperor, there are so many people around here. What if Princess Zhenzhu gets out of fire with a musket?
Princess Zhenzhu pouted a little when she heard this, and Su Cheng smiled and said, "But I can touch you!"
This little princess is quite arrogant.
While speaking, Su Cheng handed the short musket in his hand to Princess Zhenzhu.
Although I can't test the gun, it's good to be able to touch it. Princess Zhenzhu was immediately happy again when she heard it, and her pair of willow-leaf eyebrows were curled up.
Playing with the musket in his hand, Princess Zhenzhu snorted: "Nothing special is there!"
After playing for a few moments, Princess Zhenzhu returned the musket to Su Cheng very disgusted. This surprised Su Cheng a little. He thought Princess Zhenzhu wanted to find out the secret of the musket.
Handing the musket to the guard next to him to fill it, Su Cheng asked with a smile: "Princess Zhenzhu, what do you think of my Tang Dynasty man's riding skills?"
Princess Zhenzhu nodded and said, "It's not bad too!"
Su Cheng smiled and said, "Our princes of the Tang Dynasty have better riding skills, are you looking forward to it?"
"What are you looking forward to?" Princess Zhenzhu said casually without caring.
"These princes are noble, elegant, and both civil and military, proficient in riding and shooting. Cough, don't you look forward to it?" Su Cheng asked.
"What does horse racing have to do with honor or not? I am quite looking forward to that white-hoofed black horse, and your red rabbit horse. By the way, Su Cheng, let's make a bet?" Princess Zhenzhu said with great enthusiasm.
Su Cheng said curiously: "Betting? What bet?"
Princess Zhenzhu smiled brightly and said, "If I beat you in the horse racing, then you can take me to a hot air balloon, is that okay?"
It turned out that what she was thinking about was sitting on a hot air balloon, and there was no problem with this. Su Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, but what if you lose?"
"I won't lose!" Princess Zhenzhu was full of confidence and stroked Xiaohua's horse's head and said, "Is it Xiaohua, how could we lose?"
Su Cheng was speechless: "I still think I will win!"
Princess Zhenzhu thought, "Then, if I lose, then I will lose this to you!"
While speaking, Princess Zhenzhu took out a gem the size of a dove egg from her arms, shining brightly in the sun, which showed that it was priceless.
"This is my favorite gem, it's priceless, is my sincerity enough?" Princess Zhenzhu was afraid that Su Cheng would not be happy.
In fact, Su Cheng didn't care about any gems or not, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, then let's bet once!"
Bang!
Princess Zhenzhu waved her whip in the air excitedly and said excitedly: "That's great!"
Su Cheng was speechless, why did it seem like you had won?
Su Cheng kindly reminded: "Don't be happy too early. First of all, you have to win them before you have the chance to race horses with me. Then you have to win me. Do you understand?"
Princess Zhenzhu shook her braid and said softly: "It's a piece of cake! I'll come to the next round of the game!"
As he was speaking, Li Chongyiyue came immediately and shouted: "I'll come this round!"
Cheng Chumo and others also discussed it, and they also wanted to get apart, both brothers should not compete with each other, and it would not be too late to divide the difference in the finals, and Li Chongyi was sent to take the lead.
"You are going to participate in this round? Coincidentally, Princess Zhenzhu also participated in this round of horse racing!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
