Qinhai City.
A port city located in the south of Daqin. This city has always been a large trading port for them. It can be said to be very rich. This city is also the first pass of their Daqin.
When the Misi Kingdom was powerful, it would often reach Qinhai City through the sea and attack Daqin, but now the situation is completely reversed.
This city seems to have stood for a long time, and it is also where their Qin army is stationed.
This time, King Mashanda personally led the army to Qinhai City to garrison. His soldiers looked brave and powerful.
Anyway, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty all believed that they would be able to win the battle by following the king, and there would be absolutely no problems. They had this confidence and self-confidence.
However, Ma Shanda was also very nervous, mainly worried about whether there was any problem with the teacher.
After arriving in Qinhai City, his teacher Arito quickly demonstrated the weapons he urged the craftsmen to make, which were siege weapons built using the principle of leverage.
This weapon is actually a huge catapult that can be used not only to attack cities but also on ships.
"When the enemy army arrives, we will use catapults to hurl huge stones directly out, which will be able to suppress their ships and attack their soldiers."
Ma Shanda looked at it with admiration, but he was still a little worried.
"Teacher, will this really work? It's just a few stones. Isn't there a sword?"
"Or no firearms?"
Aristo explained with a smile, "Teacher has definitely thought about this more than you have. Teacher has already considered the naval battle for you. Moreover, it will be very difficult for them to break through our port and successfully land on the beach. We must stop them in the cradle."
"Look at this."
Arido pointed to something wrapped in cloth next to him. After opening it, he could see that it was actually a relatively large mirror. The mirror was smooth and bright, and seemed to be no different from an ordinary mirror.
Only sunlight shines on this mirror, making it sparkle.
"Teacher, why did you prepare this mirror? Will the mirror be of great use when we fight?"
Aristo explained confidently, "Of course it works! These mirrors are very useful."
"Don't look at this mirror just to illuminate our own faces, it is actually a very powerful weapon of destruction."
"Didn't you say you needed a fire attack? This is a fire attack. We prepare a lot of mirrors and rotate them. Then, we can focus the light from these mirrors in one place, and combustion will occur quickly."
"When the enemy ships approach, we will use mirrors to reflect sunlight so that it falls on the same spot. Then, before the enemy ships get close, they will notice that our ship is on fire."
"Then their fleet will collapse on its own!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Shanda looked very surprised. He had never imagined that an ordinary mirror, when used in large quantities, could become a weapon with such destructive power. Could this be true? He felt it was incredible.
"Teacher, are you telling the truth?"
"This is incredible. Just a few mirrors can cause huge damage to the enemy. This is amazing."
"It means we can use the mirror and unleash the power of the Sun God, right?"
Aristo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "What Sun God? It's clearly the light of the sun. Don't you know that the sun's rays are very hot? It's just using this principle."
"This is all my research, but you just don't know it. I haven't been idle all these years. Now that you have become king and have to fight wars, I will naturally not let you down."
Arido was very confident that the result of his research could definitely deal a fatal blow to the enemy, and the enemy would not be able to react at all because they had no idea about this principle.
I'm probably the only smart person in the entire continent who knows this, and everyone else seems to be uncivilized.
His confidence is indeed justified. After all, his knowledge is quite impressive, and most people would only understand it as relying on divine power.
…
Soon, the Mississippi fleet led by Lu Yun appeared on the horizon near the beach of Qinhai City.
The fleet appeared on the sea in a mighty manner, like a huge dark cloud.
The fleet has about dozens of ships, and they must be all built of wood. The ships are not that luxurious. It is impossible to build ships directly with iron, so they are afraid of fire.
Of course, the ship that Lu Yun was riding on was a ship of their Great Qin, so it was made of iron and there was no need to worry at all.
As they appeared on the sea level, they saw the city and the beach not far ahead!
Is this the most important trading city of the Great Qin, Qinhai City?
On the side, Zhao Yueyao asked in a low voice.
"Do you plan to bring the ship directly to the shore and attack them, or engage them on the sea surface?"
Lu Yun shook his head, "It's still unclear at the moment. The enemy must have received the news, and that King Mashan has also led the army in person.
We'll see if he wants to attack first. If not, we'll land quickly and fight on land."
"After all, on land, our combat capabilities are still very strong. If we were on the ocean, the uncertainties would be too great, so we must reach shore as soon as possible."
"good."
Just as their fleet was charging forward and speeding up, they suddenly saw a lot of lights gathering near their ships to form a large circle.
And the light reflected by countless mirrors is concentrated at one point.
Because they had more mirrors, nearly half of the ships were targeted by a circular beam of light, like a laser.
At this time, the soldiers on the ships in their fleet had never seen such a scene, so they were all very confused.
What's going on? How can there be so many lights gathered together? What can these things do? These beams of light look a little strange to me.
No matter how knowledgeable Lu Yun was, if he guessed correctly, this was the light reflected by the mirror. By gathering this light in one place, it could cause a devastating blow to the ship and cause it to burn.
Once the ships are burning, it will be difficult to extinguish the fire. The more severe the burning is, the more useless their fleet will be and the soldiers will lose their combat capability in an instant.
"Ah! No way, this is possible. Who came up with this idea?"
