Chapter 373 Escape



"You have entered my Seleucid territory without permission, and you are holding weapons and wearing armor. I think you have ulterior motives." Antiochus III said lightly.

"Why waste so much time talking to them, Your Majesty? Just give the order and I'll chop this guy to death." Wang Jian became angry.

Although I have known for a long time that these people have bad intentions, I didn't expect that they could not help but take action.

It just so happens that I haven't done anything for a while, so I'm going to let loose and do something today.

Ying Zheng glanced at the people who were surrounding him. Not far away, there were many archers pointing their bows and arrows at them.

Ying Zheng's lips curled up slightly, "Since they want to play, then play with them properly."

Antiochus III had given the order, and these men were already attacking them.

Ying Zheng drew the sword from his waist, swung the sword, and directly cut off the arrow attacking him.

With Ying Zheng's order, the dozen or so people he brought were like wolves entering a flock of sheep. Every time they swung the sword in their hands, they could take one person away.

The banquet was filled with the smell of blood. Antiochus III was protected by others. At this time, he was a little confused. These people were too fierce. There were tens of thousands of them, and they were cooperating with archers, but he could do nothing to them.

Even the tall and strong man was coming towards him to kill him. Antiochus III took his weapon and quickly asked more people to protect him.

Ying Zheng hadn't taken action for some time, but his strength was not affected at all. The arrows were cut off before they got close to him, and he didn't even need the defensive bracelet on his wrist.

He swung his sword happily. He hadn't felt so happy since he defeated the Huns and other tribes.

The troops arranged by Antiochus III were all Seleucus' elite troops. These people were quite strong and could barely withstand a few moves from him.

The strength of these foreigners frightened Antiochus III, and even the princes and ministers were frightened at this time.

"Go and mobilize the army. We must not let them live. Hurry!" Antiochus III ordered loudly.

On the other side, Gan Luo heard what Antiochus III said and his eyes narrowed slightly. "Your Majesty, they have gone to mobilize the army. If we continue, we will suffer losses here. Let's leave first."

"Come on, teacher, give some of the gifts we brought to them." Ying Zheng did not hesitate and led his men to fight their way out.

Wang Jian understood what he meant, took out a bamboo tube from his waist, lit it, and threw it towards the crowded area in one go.

boom!!

The huge explosions were heard, and the people from Daqin were already used to it.

As Wang Jian threw the detonator out, the soldiers who followed also threw the detonator out, relying on the explosion to kill their way out.

When they arrived outside the palace, guards were already waiting there, escorting Ying Zheng and the others to the boat.

"King, they ran away. Should we chase them?" a prince and minister asked hurriedly. They were really scared by the power of the detonator explosion of these people.

Antiochus III had a gloomy expression on his face, which was all covered in ashes from the explosion. If it weren't for his guards protecting him, he would have been blown to death.

I don’t know how the thing in the bamboo tube was made, but it’s incredibly powerful.

If Seleucus had these things, it would be completely possible for him to conquer the surrounding small countries, even the Ptolemaic and Mauryan empires.

"Let them go." Nearly ten thousand people had died, and Antiochus III's face looked very ugly. These people had dozens of large ships, so many soldiers, and the ships were so big that there was no guarantee that there were no more detonators or even more lethal weapons inside.

In order to stop the loss in time, forget it.

The most urgent task is to let the craftsmen study the powerful and lethal weapons. As a king with expansionist ambitions, he knows the value of these things better than anyone else.

Antiochus III had no intention of rushing for a doctor to treat his injuries. Instead, he ordered people to gather skilled craftsmen and then discuss the matter of the detonator with the princes and ministers.

If Seleucus could not possess such weapons, although the Qin Dynasty was far away, it would be entirely possible to use such weapons to clear the way and attack them.

After all, if the Qin fleet could reach Seleucus, the army should be able to come as well.

He didn't want to wait for death. Only if Seleucus also had such weapons would they have the qualifications to resist.

The princes and ministers were also very interested in detonators. They had never imagined that there were such weapons. Although Seleucus suffered a great loss this time, it also refreshed their cognition.

They also want such weapons and want to become more powerful.

The current past is an ambitious king, and following him will definitely give you the opportunity to make achievements.

With this detonator, the losses in the army can also be reduced.

A group of people were discussing heatedly, and at this time the Qin Dynasty's large ship had already entered the river.

Ying Zheng sat on the deck, looking at the Seleucid people around him with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

The population of Seleucus is quite large. When will the Qin Dynasty be able to reach here?

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng began to feel depressed again.

"They didn't even chase us." Wang Jian said regretfully.

"Isn't it better if they don't chase us? Do you still want to fight?" Gan Luo said speechlessly. This is the territory of the Seleucids. Even if they have a lot of gunpowder, it is not endless.

Fighting to the death at this moment is definitely not a wise choice.

"Of course we want to fight, but I don't know if we can conquer such a country with so few people." Wang Jian said, touching his chin, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
