"Ready to fire..." came the command.
Five gunners held torches and pressed them against the fuse.
The booming sound of cannons filled the air.
The sound of the cannon was deafening.
The entire earth was shaking.
Five shells whistled out of the barrel and flew into the distance.
Soon, the five shells hit the distant rocks, shattering them into pieces and sending stone fragments flying everywhere.
When Murong Chui saw this, he couldn't stop smiling.
"Good, good, good... With this powerful army, even if Jiang Tian comes, he'll have to kneel down before me."
The generals following behind Murong Chui were overjoyed when they saw this.
"Congratulations, Commander! Congratulations, Commander!"
"General, with this musketeer to our aid, how can we not fear the destruction of Jiang Tian's army?"
"General, I'm just hoping Jiang Tian's troops will come and die right now."
"Jiang Tian, that scoundrel, has gone too far. He should be taught a lesson."
Otherwise, this bastard wouldn't know that Lord Horse has three eyes.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Murong Chui glanced at Sheffield, then dismounted and walked up to the musketeers and artillerymen.
Sheffield quickly dismounted and stood beside Murong Chui.
"Let me fire a couple of shots from these muskets," Murong Chui said, showing great interest in the powerful firearms.
"Let's pretend to be prisoners and let Commander Murong see the power of our muskets!" Sheffield said excitedly.
A musketeer with a pouch of ammunition and a pouch of gunpowder hanging from his waist.
After cleaning the musket, he loaded it with gunpowder and bullets.
The musketeer presented the musket to Murong Chui.
He also taught Murong Chui in detail how to shoot.
Murong Chui was a military commander with extensive combat experience.
Murong Chui's archery skills were unparalleled; this guy could hit the bullseye every time he was out of the blue.
With a good foundation in archery, shooting targets with a musket becomes extremely easy.
Murong Chui aimed at the distant target and quickly pulled the trigger.
With a bang, the bullet flew out and accurately hit the target 30 meters away.
"Excellent, excellent, this is truly a fine weapon." Murong Chui praised the musket highly.
"Give me a chance to use that cannon too."
In the following time, Murong Chui fired ten cannonballs in succession.
Each shell can accurately hit a target more than 500 meters away.
"How much are these muskets and cannons?"
Sheffield looked hesitant.
“I told you, there’s nothing in this world that’s not for sale if the price is reasonable enough. Name your price, and I’ll take a look.”
Sheffield hesitated for a long time before holding up one finger: "A musket costs one thousand taels of silver, and a cannon costs ten thousand taels of silver."
This price is far below Murong Chui's expected target.
Murong Chui laughed heartily: "Equip me with 10,000 muskets and 100 cannons."
I can give you this money anytime, anywhere.
In addition, equip me with 100,000 muskets and 2,000 cannons within a year.
I will give you everything I have left within this year, not a single penny less.
Sherveld gave a thumbs up: "General Murong is indeed straightforward."
"Sheffield hopes we can work well together. As long as you continue to work with me, I guarantee you'll get your share of the money."
Sheffield was essentially just a businessman.
Whether it's selling arms or participating in wars, all he cares about is money.
"General Murong, I love doing business with you. I can give you 1,000 muskets right now."
As for the rest, you'll have to pay me half of the deposit first.
"Once the deposit is received, I can make arrangements right now."
Murong Chui smiled.
This amount of money meant nothing to him.
"When will you musketeers be able to fight me?"
"Like I said before, as long as the money is there, it's ready anytime."
Murong Chui waved to the wolf guards beside him, and soon, more than a dozen wolf guards stepped forward.
"With these musketeers, can you rescue the young master?" Murong Chui asked directly, getting straight to the point.
"Absolutely no problem."
"Dong San... Didn't I prepare ten million taels of silver? Take half of it and let these musketeers hold onto it, so they can go to the capital with you."
"You wolf guards will follow these musketeers. If you can fight, then fight. Don't waste words with them, understand?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Murong Chui glanced at Sheffield: "I urgently need 1,000 men from your 10,000-strong musketeer unit to go on a mission with my men."
Sheffield stretched out his hands and shrugged: "No problem at all, as long as you pay me."
"I hope you won't let me down."
"I have full confidence in my musketeers; no one in the world can rival them."
…………
Early the next morning.
A thousand-strong musketeer team, led by more than 50 wolf guards, headed straight for the capital.
Watching the departing figures of these thousand musketeers.
Murong Chui was overjoyed.
"General, there's no need to worry anymore. With these Russians taking action, Jiang Tian is no match for us."
If he dares not release the young master, I'll kill that beast.
Murong Chui nodded excitedly.
In his view, with a thousand musketeers from the Rakshasa Kingdom on the field, Jiang Tian would definitely be no match for him.
Murong Chui sat in his study, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand.
