"Instant destruction?"

Ma Jun's face stiffened. He had been in the invention world for so long, and this was the first time he had ever heard of such a request.

People usually ask for something to be durable and sturdy so it can last longer. But here you're asking for something that's easy to break. This is the first time I've ever encountered something like this.

This isn't my major!

Ma Jun glanced at his lord and said awkwardly, "I'll design it when I get back. It shouldn't be a big problem. We just need to destroy a few key parts so they don't have a sample, then the enemy won't be able to copy it."

"Alright, then I'll leave this to you, Deheng. I'll leave it to you." Lin Yi nodded and smiled.

With Ma Jun's abilities, he is more than capable of solving this problem.

After all, this thing is not so easy to imitate. Even if the enemy gets hold of Ma Jun Divine Crossbow Ma Jun Divine Crossbow, unless they have sufficient ability, they simply cannot imitate it.

If it were so easy to replicate, the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow would have been everywhere back then, and it wouldn't have been lost to time.

The Zhuge Repeating Crossbow has been lost, let alone the enhanced version, the Ma Jun Divine Crossbow. Unless the opponent is a genius, they cannot replicate it. In addition to the skill involved, there are also limitations in craftsmanship and materials, so it is not so easy.

Since this problem can be solved, then the Divine Machine Battalion can be established.

Before he knew it, Hu Che'er had already appeared outside the main hall. Lin Yi glanced at Wang Yue and told him to bring her in.

" Hu Che'er greets his lord!" Upon seeing Lin Yi, Hu Che'er immediately knelt on one knee to express his loyalty.

What a hero!

Upon seeing this man, everyone couldn't help but sigh inwardly. He was indeed a Great Han; no wonder the lord had appointed him to lead the Divine Machine Battalion.

This man is eight feet tall!

And those muscles! It's a shame they're not carrying Ma Jun Divine Crossbow.

"Yes, no need for formalities!"

Lin Yi waved his hand and said in a deep voice, " Hu Che'er, I intend to have you build my own exclusive weapon, the Divine Machine Battalion. Are you confident that you can do it?"

These words filled everyone with envy. This was the treatment of a lord's personal guard, a true confidant. Hu Che'er was so lucky.

"Rest assured, my lord, Hu Che'er is your spear. Even if you order me to kill Li Anlan, I won't blink an eye." Hu Che'er, naturally discerning, was overjoyed and patted his chest to assure him.

Lin Yi nodded slightly. This kid was quite clever; no wonder he managed to fool Dian Wei.

He laughed and said, "I'll give you three thousand elite troops. As for the rest, you can choose them yourself. Or you can ask Wang Yue; he'll help you!"

Wang Yue's Net has a thousand Flying Bear Army, all of whom are incredibly strong and powerful. If they were to form a four-man team, their combat strength would probably increase more than fivefold.

"Thank you, my lord!" Hu Che'er was overjoyed. With these people, he could train the Divine Machine Battalion, which would become his lord's sharpest weapon, the kind that was indestructible.

kindness!

After arranging the Divine Machine Battalion and Ma Jun Divine Crossbow, everyone couldn't help but look at their lord. Now they had witnessed his talent firsthand; he truly lived up to his reputation.

What about such a joyous occasion?

Xun Yu smiled and said, "My lord, what great news are you talking about? Could it be that the war in the Western Regions has come to a conclusion?"

"Haha, Wenruo guessed right!"

Lin Yi didn't mince words, handing the letter to Xun Yu and saying with a smile, "This battle was swift and decisive. The Western Regions are probably terrified by how easily the Jushi and Shachi kingdoms were defeated!"

Although this battle was a trial run, it was also a demonstration of Xiliang's strength, and winning it so decisively was definitely a cause for celebration.

"Did you really win?"

Chen Qun and the others' eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but lean in to take a look. This was the first victory since the establishment of Xiliang, and its significance was far-reaching!

The key issue is that they won too quickly; it's only been a few days!

"Awesome, my lord!"

The generals, including Gongsun Zan, were extremely excited. After reading the description in the letter, they were filled with excitement, as if they were on the battlefield themselves.

Light cavalry tore through the enemy lines and slaughtered 20,000 allied troops.

Yan Gang bypassed the Jushi Kingdom and launched a surprise attack on the homeland of the Shachi Kingdom. Within an hour, he had breached the Shachi Kingdom and was at the royal palace!

The strategist devised a brilliant plan, and the Jushi Kingdom was utterly defeated, with the enemy fleeing in terror!

After reading these accounts, Chen Qun couldn't help but exclaim, "This battle was truly spectacular! It makes me want to go to the battlefield and fight!"

"Haha, it has to be my White Horse Volunteers!"

Upon hearing his words, Gongsun Zan couldn't help but burst into laughter, a smug look on his face. " The White Horse Volunteers didn't even require my personal command. Their light cavalry broke through the blockade of 20,000 troops from the Jushi Kingdom and Shachi Kingdom, and then launched a surprise attack on the Shachi Kingdom. That's the White Horse Volunteers!"

"Hmph, what White Horse Volunteers the final decisive battle, it will still be our Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors!"

Qu Yi glanced at him, his face full of dissatisfaction, and said, "What do you mean by 'prestige'? Our Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors braved the enemy's rain of arrows and stormed into the royal city. That's the prestige of our Vanguard Dare-to-Die Warriors."

"The Jushi Kingdom usually acts arrogantly and domineeringly. They must be terrified by our Divine Arm Crossbow and crossbows. What a pitiful child!"

The two men were smug; although they hadn't been on the battlefield themselves, their men had.

Cool!

Showing off!

Chen Dao glanced at the two men, his lips twitching slightly, and simply ignored them; these two were too arrogant.

Gan Ning couldn't hold back any longer and said sourly, "Hmph, if they were on the water, I, Gan Xingba, would have beaten them all to a pulp by myself. Why would I need the two of you!"

Everyone else is fighting a war, and I'm the only one fishing. It's a bit frustrating.

It's only 50,000 men. Adding the 20,000 allied troops cobbled together earlier, it's only about 70,000. Most of them are probably not even qualified. If they can't win, they might as well die.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Gan Ning's dissatisfaction, Qu Yi couldn't help but laugh heartily and comforted him, "Brother Xingba, don't be angry. We still have to brave a rain of arrows to attack the city, while you only need to go to the island and plant your flag. You should be secretly happy!"

"Holy crap! You said all I do is plant flags? I challenge you to a one-on-one duel!"

These words infuriated Gan Xingba. How dare you be so arrogant, you Blackie! Planting your flag isn't so easy, you know. There are plenty of storms ahead.

Hahaha!

Seeing Gan Ning's defenses crumble, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh heartily, comforting him, " Xingba, don't worry, there's no shortage of enemies on the water. I've received word that the aristocratic families and the Great Ning royal family are all heading out to sea. You're in for a lot of trouble!"

The ocean is a treasure trove; how could it lack enemies? It will only attract more and more enemies.

"Thank you, my lord. I will train the navy well and wait for them to fight me!"

Although Gan Ning was somewhat annoyed, since his lord had spoken, he naturally couldn't continue to be arrogant, or he would suffer the consequences later.
