Daqin Engineering Corps

Wang Jian couldn't help being shocked when he heard this:

"Warship with wheels? Black armor?"

"And the destruction of the boat by shooting the pole... What are these things?"

Wang Jian just rushed back from the Northland, so he doesn't know much about these things.

Ying Zheng explained:

"The chariot and warship widow have seen it once in Daliang."

"At that time, I only thought that it was just taking advantage of the speed and bow, but I never thought that this thing is so amazing."

"Pairing the pole with the black armor that is good for water combat is suitable for distance."

"Shen Bing once again saved Daqin from fire and water!"

Li Si thought for a while and said:

"My lord, if this thing is so powerful, why don't I make a lot of it?"

"Wouldn't it be of great benefit to attack Chu along the river then?"

Ying Zheng nodded:

"The widow is exactly what it means."

"But at this time, Shen Bing is fighting against the city."

"It won't be too late to make a decision after the battle to lead the city is over and call him to ask for clarification."

The battle to lead the city was actually settled after three days.

The reason why it took three days was because the Qin army felt that there was no need to attack, but the Chu army still had a glimmer of hope.

The reason why the Qin army didn't need to attack was because Qiancheng was already dead, and it would be sooner or later to surrender. There was no need to waste troops for this, even if it was a single soldier.

The Chu army had a glimmer of hope, because they thought that Xiang Yan would organize troops to rescue.

However, as time passed day by day, there was no movement from Caozhou's side, and the defense line in his heart gradually collapsed.

The main thing is that there is not much food.

When the Chu army occupied Qiancheng, they mainly transported timber.

Wood can be used to build arrow towers and city walls and must be transported first.

As for food and water... Caozhou is almost across a river from Qiancheng, relying on the strength of the water army, they thought they could be transported at any time, so they didn't store much.

Who would have thought that as soon as the Qin army came, they would defeat the navy and seal off the city, and then the only food they had was exhausted the next day, and they began to be hungry on the third day.

The soldiers of the Chu Army looked at the group of Qin Shuijun in black armor and terrifying masks around them, watching them carelessly guarding, eating, and even chatting and laughing comfortably.

Then they knew there was no hope.

I don't know who took the lead, but one by one the Chu soldiers put down their weapons and chose to surrender early in the morning of the third day.

Chapter 185 Immortal

If Qiancheng surrendered, the surrounding small forts would not be able to hold on, so Qiancheng was quickly recovered by the Qin army.

Just as Shen Bing reconfigured his troops, a messenger stepped forward to report:

"Captain, the general invites you to Handan."

"And order you to bring ten wheel warships!"

Shen Bing responded, and ordered ten warships on wheels.

Shen Bing knew why Wang Jian was doing this.

The Black Armored Army had already gained a reputation in this battle, so of course they wanted to observe the Black Armored Army's tactics and their warships.

Shen Bing was right in thinking. When Shen Bing arrived in Handan, the first thing he did was to command the chariot warships to conduct a wave of exercises.

They even have the target ship ready.

Shen Bing was also polite, and ordered the chariot warship to drive up and slapped it fiercely with the stick. After a few hits, the target boat was smashed and sank into the river...

This naturally attracted cheers from the shore.

In fact, it wasn't just applause, Wang Jian and the other generals didn't know what it was like watching this scene.

This pole is actually very simple. It is a huge stone tied to a log and stood on the boat.

But why only Shen Bing thought of it but they couldn't?

At the beginning, Shen Bing said that only Wang Jian and his subordinates went ashore and found that the horse merchants were there.

Ma Shang stepped forward to greet Shen Bing with a smile, cupped his hands and said:

"The captain is polite."

"I haven't seen you for a few days. I don't want the captain to make a contribution to Daqin again."

"This battle wiped out more than [-] Chu troops and recaptured Qiancheng. It is really a great contribution!"

Shen Bing hurriedly returned the gift:

"A trifle is nothing to worry about."

"Shen Bing won by luck."

The horse merchant laughed loudly:

"The captain is too modest!"

It was Wang Jian who came up after that. He and Shen Bing were polite, and then introduced to Shen Bing a person who looked like a civil servant next to him:

"This is Prime Minister Li Si."

Shen Bing was taken aback...it was Li Si in front of him?A generation of famous Li Si?

Thinking about the action but not daring to hesitate a bit, he hurried forward to salute:

"Shen Bing, Lieutenant of the Heijia Military Academy, pay my respects to the prime minister."

Li Si politely helped Shen Bing up, and said:

"You don't need to be polite, Captain."

"This chariot and warship is amazing. It's no wonder that the captain was able to defeat the Chu army. I really admire it."

Shen Bing hurriedly said some polite words.

The banks of the Yellow River were still some distance away from Handan, and Wang Jian had already dismounted his carriage and carried everyone back to the camp.

The carriage can be shared by two people, Li Si and Wang Jian are in the same carriage, Wang Jian originally arranged for Shen Bing to ride alone in a carriage, but he didn't want the horse merchant to ride with Shen Bing.

Of course, Shen Bing would not refuse, secretly thinking that this foodie probably wanted to ask some more questions about how to eat.

As soon as he got into the carriage, the dealer asked:

"Captain, it is said that you are from Nanzheng?"

Shen Bing replied:

"Exactly!"

The horse merchant asked again:

"I went to Nanzheng a month ago, and they don't have a way to eat hot wok."

"In addition, there are scallion pancakes, dumplings, etc., and no one has heard of them."

"But the captain said that this is the way of eating in your hometown..."

Shen Bing let out an "oh", he slipped his mouth when he was eating the hot wok before, but he didn't expect this horse merchant to remember it in his heart, not only remembered it in his mind, but also went to check it out.

This is all right, I missed the tell.

After thinking about it, Shen Bing replied:

"The hairpin doesn't know something, this hometown is not that hometown."

"Shen Bing doesn't know what to say."

"It's just... there is an expert who taught Shen Bing how to do these things, can Zan Niao understand?"

Shen Bing also said that the horse merchant would definitely not understand and would continue to ask the end. He was thinking about what to do next, but unexpectedly, the horse merchant nodded repeatedly and replied:

"understand."

Shen Bing was a little puzzled:

"Do you really understand?"

The horse dealer answered in the affirmative:

"I really understand."

Now that he understands Shen Bing, he doesn't bother to explain anymore, anyway, he's just a horse merchant, so what if he doubts, even if he doesn't understand? !

How could Shen Bing have thought that if the guy in front of him doubted and didn't understand, he could do anything, and it was even difficult to do it!

But Ying Zheng really understood.

It's just that Ying Zheng's so-called "understand" is completely different from Shen Bing's "understand".

Yingzheng's "understanding" is because he thought Shen Bing's words were "secrets must not be revealed".

However, it cannot be said, but it can be understood:

Since Shen Bing was sent by a fairy, the "other hometown" in Shen Bing's words must be a fairyland.

And the expert who taught Shen Bing must be a "fairy".

In addition, Shen Bing can still invent so many strange things... Do you still think about it?

How can the words of the gods be discussed by mortals at will?

Thinking about it again, isn't the dish made by Shen Bing the method of the gods?

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng asked again:

"Captain, it is said that you made a braised fish last time?"

Shen Bing gave a "huh" and looked at Ma Shang suspiciously, Ma Shang was not around when he was making braised fish.

Ying Zheng said "Oh" and explained:

"I want to inquire about the news from many sources when I sell a horse."

"When I went to Daliang a few days ago, I happened to hear that you made braised fish..."

Shen Bing thought it was right.

At that time, the stewed fish caused a lot of trouble in the military camp. It was the first time they knew that they could still cook in this way, and the dishes were sweet and sour. Wouldn't it spread to the whole Daliang immediately?

In fact, not to mention Daliang, it is said that Handan has also started this practice.

Ying Zheng went on to say:

"I burned it a few times according to the method they said, although it was delicious, I always felt that something was missing."

"I don't know the captain..."

Shen Bing responded on the spot:

"Let me make another tail to taste with the hairpin!"

Ying Zheng is overjoyed:

"So it's a deal, Captain, don't make excuses."

Shen Bing was a little complacent in his heart, he didn't expect that there would be people who would admire his craftsmanship.

However, how could he have thought that Ying Zheng actually came here at the hand of a god like him...

In less than one stick of incense, the crowd stopped in front of Commander Wang Jian's tent.

Wang Jian took the seat, and the rest of the people sat on both sides, and their own servants served drinks.

After everyone toasted each other with a few glasses of wine, Wang Jian said to Shen Bing:
