Sky Curtain: With a vermilion mirror, Jing travels through the modern world, shaking all dynasties.

In the present, Zhu Jingjing, under the guidance of Lin Xiaoyu and Jiang Chuan, controls the drone to land.

"Xiaoyu, the drone is so much fun!" After having a great time playing with it, the little princess's previous hostility towards Lin Xiaoyu vanished completely. "Since this thing can't be used to carry people, it must have some other use, right?"

"Don't underestimate these small drones, they have a lot of uses!" Lin Xiaoyu liked this naive little girl very much and patiently explained, "For example, they can be used for aerial photography, they are very convenient for large-scale pesticide spraying, and they can also be used to deliver takeout. Their practicality is by no means low."

After saying that, she glanced at Jiang Chuan and said, "And it can also be used as a weapon. I'm not familiar with the military industry, so let your brother explain it to you."

Lin Xiaoyu wasn't unfamiliar with the situation, but she didn't want Zhu Jingjing to be exposed to the cruelty of war too early. Whether or not to tell her was up to Jiang Chuan, her older brother, to decide.

"Really? It doesn't seem to have much killing power. Can it really be used as a weapon?" Zhu Jingjing tilted her head and carefully observed the drone, unable to see how it could kill enemies on the battlefield.

"Jingjing, don't underestimate its capabilities on the battlefield. The emergence of drones has even changed the nature of warfare." Jiang Chuan stepped forward and said, "Although it doesn't have a large payload, it's more than enough to carry some small bombs or grenades. In addition, it's inexpensive and quick to produce, making it a nightmare for the enemy."

"Bombs, grenades?" Zhu Jingjing looked puzzled as she encountered terms she had never heard before.

Jiang Chuan was afraid that her identity as a transmigrator would be exposed, so he quickly leaned down and whispered in her ear: "It's similar to the cannons of your Ming Dynasty. It's a weapon of mass destruction. The drones that carry these weapons are like cannons flying in the sky."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Jingjing suddenly realized what was going on.

Although she had never witnessed the destructive power of artillery firsthand, she had heard that even the strongest city gates and walls could hardly withstand repeated bombardments from artillery, let alone the fragile human body.

If artillery could fly in the air, wouldn't it be invincible on the battlefield?

The Qin Dynasty, Xianyang Palace.

Ying Zheng was filled with doubt. For the Qin Dynasty, which had never even seen firearms before, it was utterly incomprehensible what kind of destructive power cannons possess. "What are cannons? How can they be more intimidating than my iron cavalry charging?"

Li Si stepped forward and said, "It sounds similar to rolling logs and boulders. If we could truly use rolling logs and boulders to strike the enemy in any terrain, it would undoubtedly give us an absolute advantage in war!"

Ying Zheng nodded.

As Sun Tzu's Art of War states: "The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans; next is to disrupt their alliances; next is to attack their army; and the worst is to besiege their cities."

If every war could be turned into a defensive siege, then unifying the six kingdoms would be much easier!

The Great Ming Dynasty, Fengtian Hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared intently at the drone in the sky. He knew all too well the power of artillery. If the artillery were given wings, even just one would be enough to terrify the enemy!

"Father, I believe our Great Ming must immediately research drone technology!" Zhu Biao advised. "If we possess such a technology, our Great Ming will surely be able to conquer the world and establish its rule over all directions!"

Zhu Yuanzhang also had this idea, but he also knew that it was a pipe dream for the Ming Dynasty to develop drones with its current technology.

"Biao'er, having ambition is a good thing, but you should do everything within your capabilities." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said, "Such divine power is beyond the control of our Great Ming. Do not waste resources and manpower on unrealistic things."

Zhu Biao nodded emphatically. To the die-hard fans of Yu Shan Jing Lun, the latest chapter of "The Sky Curtain: Traveling Through Modern Times with Zhu Jingjing, Shaking All Dynasties" has been released! "Father's words are absolutely right; your son will certainly remember them."

modern.

"Jingjing, it's getting late, we should go home." Jiang Chuan took Zhu Jingjing's hand and said, "Jingjing, say goodbye to your sister Xiaoyu."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoyu quickly said, "Jiang Chuan, wait a minute, don't forget the lecture at Peking University tomorrow!"

Jiang Chuan was taken aback, only then remembering that there was such a thing. If Lin Xiaoyu hadn't reminded him, he would have completely forgotten about it.

He nodded and said, "I understand. See you at the university tomorrow!"

After saying goodbye to Lin Xiaoyu, Jiang Chuan took Zhu Jingjing home.

"Brother, what kind of place is Yenching University? Is it fun?"

Judging from Zhu Jingjing's expectant look, the little princess probably wants to go along too.

Jiang Chuan said, "It's similar to your Imperial Academy, isn't it? If you're interested, you can come with me tomorrow."

Zhu Jingjing waved her hands repeatedly: "Then let's skip it! What's so fun about a place for reading and writing? It's so boring."

Jiang Chuan shook her head slightly; it seemed she had a deep misunderstanding of modern universities.

University is indeed a place for studying, but there are also many fun things to do there. I should take her to see them. "Jingjing, don't worry, university is anything but boring! You'll come with me tomorrow, and I'll show you around."

Zhu Jingjing nodded with some skepticism, "I'm fine with going with you, but we need to agree on this beforehand: if I get bored, you have to buy me cotton candy on the way back!"

"No problem!" Jiang Chuan agreed, saying, "Putting everything else aside, the delicious food at the university is far superior to anything cotton candy can offer!"

Jiang Chuan couldn't explain it clearly in a moment, so he simply didn't answer. Anyway, she would understand after he went to see it tomorrow.

The next day, when Zhu Jingjing got up, Jiang Chuan had already prepared breakfast.

"Brother, why are you up so early today?" Zhu Jingjing rubbed her eyes and yawned as she spoke. "Are you too excited to sleep because you're going to that university?"

Jiang Chuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Do you think I'm like you? I'm going to be a lecturer for the students today, how can I not prepare properly!"

As a military industry genius in China, Jiang Chuan is often invited to give lectures at various universities.

"Brother, your clothes are so strange." Zhu Jingjing looked Jiang Chuan up and down curiously. He was dressed completely differently today. "Why is there a strap around your neck? It looks like a noose!"

Jiang Chuan raised his hand and tapped her hard on the head. "You brat, how can you talk like that! This is called a tie. Although I don't really like it, you have to wear one for important occasions."

Zhu Jingjing looked at him with sympathy and said, "I understand. When attending ceremonies like the Heaven Worship Ceremony, I also have to wear a ceremonial crown and a wedding robe, which is such a hassle!"

Jiang Chuan smiled wryly. Compared to the cumbersome attire of ancient times, suits and ties were indeed much more convenient.

"Jingjing, stop standing there, hurry up and go wash up." Jiang Chuan tidied his appearance in front of the mirror, urging him, "We'll go out after you finish breakfast."

Zhu Jingjing pouted and said, "If you're in such a hurry, then wake me up earlier! You keep looking in the mirror, but I need to get ready too!"
