"The repeating firearm is on the vehicle."
"If you want to see it, go up to the car."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu rushed into the chariot without hesitation.
Once inside the vehicle, Xiang Yu smelled a pungent odor of gunpowder, and the ground was littered with spent bullet casings.
Many people were using shovels to shovel away bullet casings.
Xiang Yu and his men were also equipped with firearms, so they knew what these bullet casings were.
The bullet casings on the ground were piled up like a mountain. So many bullet casings were fired in such a short time.
This greatly shocked both Xiang Yu and Long Ju.
"Good stuff, really good stuff." Xiang Yu walked up to the repeating musket and reached out to touch it.
Instantly, Xiang Yu felt a pain coming from his fingertips.
Immediately afterwards, a burnt smell filled the air.
"General, this weapon is extremely powerful. After firing thousands of bullets in succession, the barrel will become scorching hot."
"The gun barrel was red-hot just now."
"The barrel's color has returned to normal, but it's still very hot." After saying this, the soldier picked up a piece of paper and placed it on the barrel.
Soon, smoke began to rise from the paper.
Two or three seconds later, the paper burst into flames.
"Why didn't you say so sooner?" Xiang Yu put his scalded finger into his mouth.
"We never expected that General Xiang would actually touch the gun barrel with his hand. General, learn from your mistakes."
"General, please excuse me for a moment. We need to clean up quickly and reload our ammunition to prevent any enemy attacks."
Xiang Yu looked at the gun barrels assembled together.
He couldn't help but reach out and touch it again.
But before his hand even touched the barrel, he quickly pulled it back.
The pain he had just experienced was unforgettable.
"This gun is so hot, how did you fire it?" Long Qi asked, scratching his head.
"After loading the bullets, turn the handle next to it. Our gun is amazing. It can fire one or two thousand bullets."
Xiang Yu and Long Ju's worldviews were shattered.
In the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, several thousand bullets can be fired.
This one thing alone is worth more than a thousand people.
Xiang Yu grabbed a handful of spent bullet casings.
He held the bullet casing up to his eyes and examined it.
The bullet casings were much larger than those used by their cavalry.
The thicker and larger the bullet casing, the more gunpowder it contains.
The more gunpowder inside, the more powerful the bullet.
"No, I need to discuss this with my lord."
"We need to equip ourselves with some weapons, no matter what. Even if we can't have one for each person, one for ten people would be good enough." Xiang Yu threw the spent bullet casings on the ground, making a clinking sound.
He quickly jumped out of the car and headed straight for Jiang Tian's tent.
"My lord, I have something I'd like to discuss with you," Xiang Yu shouted from outside the tent.
"Get out..." Jiang Tian was just about to fall asleep when he was suddenly awakened.
"Alright..." Xiang Yu scratched his head, realizing he had made a fool of himself.
He wanted to say something more, but when he thought of Jiang Tian, he couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Xiang Yu retreated several dozen meters before finally letting out a sigh of relief: "My lord, he's a bit fierce today. I wonder who angered him."
"Of course, our lord must have been very tired from the journey. He covered a distance that would have taken three or four days, but he covered it in a day and a half. Even if we rode horses for a day and a half straight, our bodies would be shaken to pieces."
"Let's go back and come back tomorrow at noon."
Xiang Yu mounted his horse and galloped forward.
…………
An Ottoman military camp.
The sound of artillery fire woke everyone in the military camp.
In the Ottoman Empire's military camps, all the cannons had essentially been turned into scrap metal.
Even if these cannons were usable, there was no way to use them.
All the gunpowder was burned.
But they had never heard such a dense barrage of artillery fire before.
Jiang Tian's 100-plus vehicles can fire several thousand shells per minute.
Jiang did not use all the cannons and guns on the more than 100 vehicles today.
Jiang Tian only used more than 20 vehicles, yet he had already utterly annihilated the enemy.
In addition, the machine guns on Jiang Tian's vehicle shocked the Ottoman Empire when they heard about them.
They had never heard such a dense barrage of gunfire before.
This charge.
Not only was Hamid riddled with bullets.
Even his 40,000 cavalrymen were all killed.
Suleiman got out of bed.
This guy was so sleepy just now, but now he's wide awake.
"Where did those gunshots and cannon shots come from?"
Am I dreaming?
Suleiman asked the guard beside him.
"I have never heard such a dense barrage of gunfire and artillery fire."
All the guards shook their heads.
"General, just now General Hamid led tens of thousands of men out of the camp," a guard pointed to a distant hillside, "and then less than an hour later, we heard gunfire."
"Who told them to take the initiative?"
"What right does that bastard Hamid have to mobilize the army without permission?"
"Bring me my binoculars!" Suleiman stormed out of the tent in a fit of rage.
He took the binoculars and looked up at the distant hillside.
On the distant hillside, Xiang Yu's more than 100 bonfires were still burning.
From the more than 100 bonfires that Xiang Yu had, they could basically determine that Xiang Yu's number of men was around one or two thousand.
"That bastard Hamid didn't take me seriously. Now look what happened, he got beaten up."
As Suleiman spoke, he spun around in place.
"General, should we provide support?"
Suleiman shook his head.
"Support what?"
"Just stay here and behave yourself."
"When Hamid comes back, I'm going to teach him a lesson."
However, the sounds on the hillside gradually subsided.
It was late at night.
Even the slightest noise can travel very far.
However, everyone strained their ears to listen to the distance, but there was no sound at all from the hillside.
"General, should we send out scout cavalry to take a look?"
Suleiman nodded: "Send out scout cavalry now. We must find out their every move, no matter what."
"I wonder if something happened to that bastard Hamid."
A dozen or so scout cavalrymen charged toward the distant hillside.
Daylight slowly broke.
When these scout cavalrymen arrived on the battlefield, they were all shocked.
The battlefield was riddled with craters of all sizes.
There are hundreds of these craters, large and small.
The bodies of the Ottoman soldiers lay there haphazardly, almost all of them torn to pieces.
The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and the pungent stench of blood.
There was no living person at the scene.
