"Well, okay."
So Samishvara I said, "Then please ask the envoy to sell us some firearms. We will spend more money to buy more firearms than the Chola Kingdom has bought."
He had heard of the power of the firearm. After one shot, the other side of the river roared and exploded.
So naturally, we hope for more.
But Tan Wenxue shook his head and said, "Your Highness, the Chola King spent a lot of money and hoped that we would not sell the artillery to you. We agreed to his request."
Sumitra I was shocked and said, "How can you do this? You said you came here for peace and only sold them firearms. But if they use your firearms to attack us, what should we do?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness."
Zhang Youwei immediately smiled and said, "It's just that the cannons are not for sale, but we have better firearms."
"Better firearms?"
"Yes, we also have grenades, muskets, and rocket launchers. Their power will not disappoint Your Highness."
"That's great."
Sumitra I said happily, "Then could you demonstrate it for me?"
"certainly."
Everyone nodded repeatedly.
It is even more like the Chola Dynasty now.
The Song army demonstrated the power of muskets, grenades and other weapons to Sāmīśvara I.
Strictly speaking, the combat effectiveness of artillery and these equipment is not actually equal.
After all, even if the artillery was eliminated by the Song army, there would be no problem in firing two or three kilometers.
Once the war breaks out, hand grenades with a range of fifty meters are no match for black powder flintlock rifles within a range of four or five hundred meters.
However, the Chola Dynasty bought a relatively small number of artillery pieces. They could sell more grenades and muskets to the Chalukya Dynasty. Even if the two sides fought, relying on grenades and muskets to defend the city would be enough.
Anyway, it has always been the Chola Empire that attacked and the Chalukya Empire that defended. What the Chalukya Empire lacked the least on the border line were forts and cities, and even artillery could not penetrate the city walls.
After witnessing the power of the Song army's firearms, Sumishivala I no longer hesitated and immediately placed an order to purchase a large number of guns and other firearms.
Including mines, rocket launchers, muskets, and grenades. With this batch of weapons, if the Chola Empire is not well prepared and uses up its artillery and ammunition too early, it is possible that the Chalukya Empire will be able to push back the Chola Empire! :dingdiange
