Chapter 220 Not peaceful Jiangxia
Translated by Gamerendlessfantasytranslationscoate After being defeated at Wan Cheng, he did not kno to face Zhou Yu That is why he is now investigating the reason for his defeat at a place with one of his biggest navy
“Yes, Brother!” Standing beside him was another heroic youth He looks sientler feeling If Sun Ce was the blade of a sword, this e was concealed
This person is Sun Quan! Sun Zhonge and in the e exaistrate for 2 years The Qiantang County under his governance was flourishi+ng Just the taxes alone were double the a areas Sun Ce even co but when it co, he is inferior
When he was at the Qiantang, Sun Quan has already appreciated talented people and find ways to further develop their talent He set up a sroup that was filled with talented people In this group was Lu Su, Bu Zhi, Zhuge Jin, Yan Jun, Lu Meng, Ling Cao, and Ding Feng This group of talented people was the key to Sun Quan’s power in Jiangdong
Sun Quan looked at his brother with a complicated expresiion His brother is too remarkable At 20 years old he already beca Sun Ce was also si that started from scratch All of the accomplishments since the death of his father was done by his elder brother It could be said that since the death of their father Sun Jiang, It was his brother who carried the burden of the whole fa environment
If Sun Quan was incompetent, then there would be no problem as there was Sun Ce Sun Quan entire life would be filled with glory and wealth The probleood and was not inferior to his brother There are so who thinks that Sun Quan was the one that should rule Jiangdong as his brother would only go out to fight The systeh If it wasn’t because of Zhou Yu, there would have been a lot of coentle and courteous to others, fair and not i was the difference in how Sun Quan and Sun Ce treated the nobles Sun Ce was a military commander and was similar to Lu Bu If he had the chance, he would le the nobles as well
For exa, the noble’s children were sent to the walls to fight so that they would get killed by the Lu Bu’s Ar troops Unfortunately, his plan failed and there were survivors aht now but the would soon realize it This is because Sun Ce has also killed the re cronies in the camp This was just murder! As Sun Quan treated the nobles kinder, he is probably more suited for politics In the eyes of the nobility, Sun Quan was like a good friend to the noble fa Sun Quan has never removed anyone’s power and even return some power to some of the nobles The nobles would definitely feel closer to Sun Quan
“Brother, why do you need hed in his heart Noas his brother is here, Sun Quan would forever stand behind his brother Sun Quan shook his head helplessly
“What power! How does it fire rapidly?” Sun Ce kept asking questions He could not be bla Army suffered heavy losses because of this weapon He almost died as well Now this weapon was in his hands Sun Ce could barely believe it
Sun Quan was truly Sun Quan The ballista that was constructed by Sun Quan was different fro He added wheels to the ballista Now the ied around The ballista would not only be used on shi+ps but also equipped on the cities with gates Sun Quan immediately commanded his soldiers to showcase the power of the ballista They brought out arrow targets for Sun Ce to see
“100 steps!” Sun Quan shouted to the soldiers The soldiers nodded and quickly began the preparations They placed the target 100 steps away The target had a shi+eld and was also wearing ar was prepared, one of the soldiers raised the flag to say that they are ready to shoot
“Shoot!” Sun Quan ordered The ballista fired A gigantic arro like a et Sun Quan also knew that if he wanted the shot to be accurate, it is better to get a person as a professional marksman
Whoosh The sound of the air was torn froiant arrow The speed of the arroas faster than norives the impression that it is heavier
Booiant shi+eld was a standard weapon Although it was not as strong as the shi+elds used by Liu Mang and the Urban Ariant shi+eld was meant to defend the soldiers fro behind the shi+elds That shows the strength of the shi+elds
That shi+eld now had a large hole in the middle of the shi+eld The metal of the shi+eld was mercilessly torn open by the arrow as it continued to its next target with slightly less speed The second target was a general’s suit of ar officers and were made of iron Even then, it still could not stop the arrow Although the arroas slightly bent after penetration It has still completed its job Besides that, behind the armor was a thick plank that was about as thick as the floors of warshi+ps To show the power of the ballistae properly, it was slightly thicker by coating the wooden plank with metal This was the final result!
The thick plank that was coated with iron was also torn open and an unfortunate soldier as behind the target was pierced by the arrow and lost his life
The casualty did not even make Sun Ce and his brother blink In fact, Sun Ce’s eyes lit up “This is it! This is that power! No! This is even more fearso Xu Huang Xu has innate talent and Sun Ce could feel that Huang Xu’s shot was more accurate However, this ballista was h shi+elds, armors and thick planks If it was this ballista on the day of the battle, Sun Ceis dead and even his Overlord Spear was cracked
“200 steps! 300 steps!” Sun Quan did not reply his brother but continued to coet Froh everything if it was 300 steps away or less At 350 steps, it only ed to pierce up to half of the thick plank At 400 steps, it could break open theof the plank and so on The experiment continued until 600 to 700 steps where only the shi+eld could be destroyed This made it useful for battles on the shi+ps at 700 steps away It would be a nighte all of these quickly!” Sun Ce only had such an idea now and co the ballistae At first, he did not knohat this was But now Sun Ce finally understood why Jiang Qin and Lu Su lost With this weapon, even he would not tze River However, this weapon was now in his hands!
4,000 craftsold! Sun Ce was distressed at first but now that he has seen the power of this weapon, the 4,000 craftsold was xian! I will use the ballista given tothat you have sed!
“Oh right! Didn’t Liu Biao also dispatch a ht of it This is because the Jiangdong Arht until this scenario and even sent ers to obtain the blueprint for the ballista, Sun Ce did not believe that Liu Biao would not do anything
