To the First Emperor of Qin: The state has decreed this!

"The distance is enough!"

Zhang Fan's eyes widened, and he suddenly drew the Ding Qin Sword from his waist, roaring:

"Light it! Throw it at me!"

"promise!!!"

The 1,500 Qin soldiers on the city wall roared in unison.

Without any hesitation, they quickly lit the fuse with their torches or tinderboxes.

The fuse instantly emitted blinding sparks and white smoke.

Followed by.

At the same time, 1,500 soldiers exerted their strength, hurling their smoking grenades at the densest crowd below the city wall!

……

Below the city wall.

The Japanese pirate army, roaring and charging upwards, suddenly saw a dark object falling from the sky.

"Thud!"

"Rolling around..."

A thunderbolt struck right at the feet of a Japanese pirate leader, rolling twice on the ground.

The fuse was hissing as it burned.

The Japanese pirate leader was stunned for a moment!

He subconsciously bent down and picked up the grenade, examining it from all angles.

"What?! What is this?"

"Did the Qin people even run out of rolling logs and stones?"

"They actually threw down such a small iron rock?"

The surrounding Japanese pirates also stopped in their tracks, staring blankly at the grenades.

Ji Dan, who was overseeing the battle from the rear, saw this scene by the light of the fire, and his brows furrowed into a deep knot.

"What on earth are these Qin people up to?"

Ji Dan muttered to herself:

"This young master is well-versed in military strategy; I have never seen a city defended without boulders, rolling logs, and molten gold!"

"Instead, they're throwing down such small stones!"

"With that little weight, it wouldn't even cause a bump if it hit you. What on earth is going on today?"

"Have the Qin people run out of ideas?!"

however.

Ji Dan's sarcasm hadn't even fully blossomed at the corners of her mouth.

next second!

The fuse burned out!

"Bang!"

The first sound exploded suddenly!

Followed by.

Thousands of hand grenades triggered a chain reaction of explosions in a densely packed crowd of 20,000!

It instantly tore the entire night sky apart!

Flames shot into the sky, illuminating the night as if it were daytime!

"what!"

The shockwave from the explosion, carrying sharp metal fragments, swept wildly in all directions!

The Japanese pirate leader, who was still examining the grenade closely, didn't even have time to scream.

His entire upper body instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist!

The ladders erected on the city wall were blown to pieces, and the Japanese pirates on the ladders fell with screams.

It was just one round of simultaneous pitching!

Within a hundred paces of the city wall, huge vacuum zones were instantly blasted out!

In that instant, thousands of Japanese pirates were annihilated!

"Baka! It's divine punishment! The Qin people have summoned divine punishment!"

"The gods have descended! Divine punishment! The gods are angry!!!"

The remaining Japanese pirates were all terrified.

They dropped their weapons, covered their bleeding ears, screamed and scurried away like madmen, no longer having the courage to attack the city.

……

The rear camp.

Ji Dan's warhorse was startled and threw him violently to the ground.

But he forgot even the pain, staring intently at the battlefield ahead.

His eyes bulged out, as if he had seen a ghost, and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably!

"What...what kind of weapon is this?"

"How could this happen?"

"How could that tiny iron ball unleash such terrifying power?"

Ji Dan felt her mind go blank, and all that remained in her heart was endless fear!

Meanwhile, the Japanese king Hikonaka and King Ito were completely terrified!

Yanna Ke's legs went weak, and she knelt directly on the muddy snow.

"Devil...the devil is in the city!"

"They can use sorcery!"

King Ito was utterly terrified and screamed in agony:

"Retreat! Retreat now!"

"The Qin people are blessed by the gods!"

"Invincible! Run!!!"

……

At this moment.

A deathly silence fell over the city walls.

Fifteen hundred elite Qin soldiers stood frozen on the city wall.

A cold wind blew by, carrying with it the smoke and fumes from the city walls.

Everyone swallowed hard, staring in disbelief at the mountain of severed limbs below.

"Clang!"

It's unclear whose long spear was held properly, but it fell to the ground.

"My goodness..."

A captain gasped and looked at his rough hands.

He glanced at the grenade next to him, his tongue practically tied in knots as he spoke:

"This...this is something I threw down?"

"That inconspicuous lump of iron actually blasted more than a dozen barbarians to pieces in one go?"

"My God! That's terrifying!"

"We just... each of us threw one down, which is equivalent to wiping out thousands of enemy soldiers instantly?"

"By divine grace! This isn't just a hidden weapon! It's absolutely incredible!"

The soldiers went wild, bursting into cheers.

Zhang Fan secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and his lips twitched violently twice.

The Mohists are a bunch of lunatics...

That's not a grenade.

This amount of propellant is almost as powerful as a small mortar!

But on the surface, Zhang Fan put his hands behind his back, smiled slightly, and said calmly:

"It's just a little trick, nothing to brag about."

"Soldiers, there are still over ten thousand enemy survivors below..."

The smile on Zhang Fan's lips appeared particularly kind in the firelight:

"Today, let's open their eyes!"

"Keep the fire going! Throw it!!!"

……

outside the city.

Ji Dan climbed out of the mud and looked at the scene before her, feeling a chill run down her spine.

The 20,000-strong army had suffered more than half casualties after being bombarded by two rounds of thunderbolts from the Qin army.

The ground was littered with corpses and wounded soldiers, and the siege formation had completely collapsed.

"It's over...it's all over..."

Ji Dan's face turned pale, and she muttered to herself.

Just then, he noticed two pairs of eyes fixed on him.

Ji Dan shivered and turned her head away.

King Yannako and King Ito of the Slave Kingdom were seen drawing their swords from their waists.

The two men were deathly pale, staring intently at him!

The two kings were filled with remorse at this moment.

If I hadn't listened to the advice of these remnants of the Yan state, how could I have provoked the Qin people?

How could so many soldiers have been lost?

If we continue the assault, the remaining men will likely all die beneath the city walls.

To quell their anger, they now wished they could just kill Ji Dan.

Sensing the murderous intent of the two men, Ji Dan broke out in a cold sweat.

At the critical moment of life and death, he hurriedly shouted:

"Your Majesties, wait! We still have a chance to turn the tide!"

Yanna Ke gritted her teeth and said:

"Turning defeat into victory? Are we to use our lives to fill the Qin army's heavenly thunder?"

"It's not a siege!"

Ji Dan pointed to the west and said quickly:

"This Qin army landed from the west; they must have come by boat!"

"With so many weapons, they must have quite a few ships!"

"The main force of the Qin army is all inside the city, and their warships must be poorly defended! As long as we turn west and capture those ships!"

"If we capture the ship, we can cut off their retreat and even seize their weapons!"

"At that point, the initiative will be back in our hands!"
