Chapter 344: Disbelief
Shen Hechuan completely lost his patience.
"rule?"
"Tell me, what are the rules?"
"Since I am standing here, my words are the rules!"
"These weapons were designed by Gu Jingchun herself. How many people in the military camp know how to use them now?"
"Can you?"
"Let me ask you, if she doesn't play, who will you let play?"
"Are you playing?"
"I dare not?"
Situ Qinghe immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
However, in her heart, she did not agree with Shen Hechuan's words.
In his opinion, it was just a weapon. What could it do? No one in the military camp knew how to use it.
Your Majesty actually went to such lengths to defend a woman by lying, which is truly unbecoming of a monarch.
Besides, last time in the court, although Gu Jingchun presented weapons, he convinced Li Yunba.
However, civil officials like Situ Qinghe did not understand the twists and turns involved.
Moreover, even if he believed that Gu Jingchun had certain abilities, this was not enough to prove that she could participate in this competition.
Therefore, Situ Qinghe was full of dissatisfaction in his heart, but when he thought of his daughter who was dragged away and saw Chen Hechuan's expression, he finally did not say anything.
Similarly, the ministers present also began to be dissatisfied with Emperor Rongcheng.
Just as Situ Qinghe and Situ Mingji said, His Majesty actually disregarded the dignity of our Dacheng just to give a woman a reason to enter the palace in the future.
Suddenly they couldn't stop sighing.
Alas, God is really jealous of our success!
Is our wise and mighty Majesty going to be destroyed by this woman?
At this moment, Chen Hechuan's attention was entirely focused on Gu Jingchun.
After Situ Qinghe left, he immediately looked at Gu Jingchun, fearing that she was tired, and immediately ordered the competition to begin.
"when--"
With the sound of a gong, the competition officially began.
The man from Da Qi was seen holding a long sword and dancing with it fiercely on the ring, causing everyone present to cheer.
Afterwards, he took out a crossbow and aimed at the bull's eye.
In an instant, the crossbow arrow hit the bull's eye with such great power that it knocked the target down.
This made the ministers of Dacheng subconsciously take a step back in shock.
After all, it was the first time they saw the weapons of Da Qi and they were shocked for a moment.
Before they could finish being surprised, the man pushed out a huge weapon. When the red cloth on it was lifted, it turned out to be a huge catapult.
This is nothing, after all, the Great Qi also had catapults, but because they were too heavy, they were not used very often.
However, the catapult of the Great Qi was much smaller than the average catapult.
Therefore, the ministers could not help but speak.
"Such a small trebuchet probably doesn't have much power."
As soon as he finished speaking, the catapult made a slight sound and then shot into the distance.
There was a loud "bang" and the stones above fell in the distance.
The distance and force shocked everyone present.
Situ Qinghe's face was full of disbelief.
"It's over, it's over!"
"This... How come the weapons of Da Qi are so powerful..."
"They are just that powerful. Our Majesty actually let a woman take the stage. Now, our Dacheng will be completely disgraced."
Luo Kejin doesn't think so.
Although, he is a little unsure now.
However, he believed that Gu Jingchun, who almost became his daughter-in-law, was not a brainless person and would not compete for no reason.
So, he patted Situ Qinghe on the shoulder.
"Don't be impatient, let's take a look first. I think the crossbow that Miss Gu presented last time is much more powerful than the one from Da Qi."
Situ Qinghe snorted coldly.
"I think your brain is broken. What kind of help do you think a woman, no matter how powerful she is, can provide on the battlefield?"
"The crossbow she designed is indeed decent, but do you think it can compare to the catapult of Da Qi?"
Before Situ Qinghe could finish his words, he was interrupted by Luo Kejin.
"It's started, it's started, stop talking."
As they spoke, they both stretched their heads and looked into the distance.
Gu Jingchun took out a spear and stood there.
No one reacted to this.
Until Li Yunba stepped forward and entered the ring with a spear.
Gu Erli ignored Da Qi's repeated requests and directly drew out Da Qi's spear and followed him onto the stage.
The two stood facing each other.
It was also at this time that everyone discovered that Dacheng's spear was shorter, and in addition to the tip of the spear, there was also a hook on it.
Not only can you attack others, but you can also use the hook to instantly hook other people's weapons.
And because it is a little shorter than Da Qi's gun, it is more flexible. After a few rounds, Da Qi's gun is obviously slightly inferior.
This made all the officials in Dacheng breathe a sigh of relief.
Chen Hechuan stood up immediately and couldn't help but applaud when he saw this scene.
Mo Junxing glanced at him, but no expression could be seen on his face.
The ministers behind Da Qi did not want their most proud weapons to be surpassed by others, and they felt a little dissatisfied.
He couldn't help but snort coldly.
"snort!"
"This spear was clearly modified based on ours. How is this any different from cheating?"
"Even if their spears can outperform ours, they will still lose to our crossbows and catapults in the end."
As soon as they finished speaking, Gu Jingchun took out a crossbow and aimed at the target without saying a word.
"Shuashuashua——"
Three crossbow arrows were shot out at the same time, causing the people who had just spoken to open their mouths wide and be speechless for a long time!
"Did I see it right? There are actually three crossbow arrows. They are so advanced that they can actually design a crossbow that can shoot three arrows at the same time!"
“This… How is this possible!?”
Mo Junxing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw this, and his gaze fell on Gu Jingchun, and the admiration in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
He knew that there must be something in Gu Jingchun's hand.
She really won't let him down.
Not far away, Gu Jingchun watched the target fall with satisfaction.
He curled his lips, put down the crossbow, and exuded confidence from head to toe.
She put away the crossbow, turned around and looked around, and finally her eyes fell on Shen Hechuan who was in the middle of the crowd.
At this time, Chen Hechuan had already stood up, and the eunuch shadow behind him was struggling to hold an umbrella with him.
Gu Jingchun smiled at him.
Chen Hechuan immediately nodded, his eyes full of encouragement.
Only then did Gu Jingchun turn around and nodded slightly at Li Yunba.
Li Yunba was already eager to try and ready to go.
Seeing Gu Jingchun nod, he immediately pushed the huge thing forward.
"What's that big thing?"
Everyone couldn't help but start talking.
Li Yunba then shouted, "Auntie, just watch."
