Chapter 734: Chapter 734: A Dark Willow and Bright Flowers Reveal Another Secret Room

Not long after entering through the Stone Gate, Li Wenli saw a turn, and past that turn was a large, semi-open room.

Compared to the outside, this place was bustling with noise.

Li Wenli slowly walked in and saw thirty or forty people sitting in different corners of the room, hammering and assembling various things.

There were semi-finished Siege carts, as well as semi-finished "Anti-Aircraft Guns" and so on.

It seemed that all these people were top-notch craftsmen, though it was unknown when they had been arranged to come here.

These craftsmen were burning the midnight oil, working day and night, with faces as pale as those craftsmen outside who had not seen sunlight for years.

Thinking of the deadline of the winter solstice mentioned by the Components Workshop... It was just preparing to enter autumn now, and there were still a few months until the winter solstice.

Could it be that Yuwen Jun was planning to initiate warfare by the winter solstice?

Considering this possibility, Li Wenli slightly squinted his eyes.

Li Wenli had not had any contact with the Eldest Prince, but judging by Yuwen Luanfei’s style, he was no match for Yuwen Jun.

Moreover, considering all the covert forces encountered during this period, it was feared that both Yuwen Luanfei and the Eldest Prince would ultimately be cannon fodder.

As Li Wenli was pondering this, the craftsman noticed the Cloak People.

The Cloak People often came to inspect, and everyone was used to it, so seeing Li Wenli, they just bowed and paid respects.

Li Wenli naturally walked over to the group of craftsmen; no one recognized anyone else, and everyone was harmoniously merry.

However, that was not entirely true—although they had never seen the faces of the Cloak People, they could distinguish the Great Chief, the Second Seat, and the Third Chief by their figures.

Speaking of which, it had been a while since the Third Chief had come, while the other two continued to visit as always.

The people did not know that the absence of the Third Chief, Eunuch Zou, was because he had been reincarnated.

While the Great Chief and the Second Seat still came because... they had not yet reincarnated.

Li Wenli specially wandered around these blueprints for a long time and finally understood: here were not only Siege carts and repeating crossbow carts but even rotating shooting machines.

All were super weapons with power not inferior to modern arms.

Take the rotating shooting machine, for instance: it was a device that could reach a 180-degree shooting range underground for bows and arrows, capable of firing a thousand crossbow bolts at a time. Soldiers only needed to keep snapping crossbows onto the conveyor belt, and the rotating shooting machine would continue firing until there were no more arrows;

then it would stop attacking. Such equipment is highly suitable for defending city gates, where the rate of arrow hits is unusually high.

However, as powerful as it is, it is not easy to manufacture, and so far, no finished rotating shooting machine has been seen.

As for the repeating crossbow cart, those are similar to the artillery seen earlier in the Stilted Building.

The only difference between it and the cannon is that it launches arrows while the cannon fires explosives.

Though the power of the arrows is less than that of bombs, their sheer number more than makes up for it.

This repeating crossbow cart, much like the rotating shooting machine, can fire automatically once switched on; the only difference is that the rotating shooting machine covers a 180-degree range, whereas the direction of the repeating crossbow cart must be controlled manually.

However, since the rotating shooting machine is mounted on wheels, it can achieve a certain degree of mobility on the battlefield.

In the age of cold weapons, one could say that its emergence could scatter even the mightiest of armies.

As Lame Man Uncle said, the Affairs of His Majesty are undoubtedly the most terrifying of imperial tactics; possessing it means the world could be conquered at any moment.

But these plans were from over a thousand years ago, and they were not authentic disciples of the Mohist, thus making their imitation work particularly arduous.

At that moment, seeing the Chief coming over, everyone saw him as a savior and immediately started discussing with him.
