Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 371 After draining the national treasury, they bombed the palace.

That's right. Chu Chen thought to himself, since he was already here, and Zhou Shixun had said he could do whatever he wanted, why not prepare a surprise for him?

Moreover, before Zhou Shixun arrived, he frantically hinted to himself that he would deal with Luo Duo in the same way he dealt with Japan.

The meaning is quite clear: they bombed the palace.

After returning to the underground warehouse, Chu Chen went straight to the first floor.

At the gate of the fortress, a dozen or so hand grenades were tied with thin thread.

Then they went down to the second basement level, where they also strapped grenades to the stone door leading from the first to the second floor.

Walking into the passage, with one stone spaced about ten meters apart, Chu Chen sat down to rest as he walked all the way to the exit.

After recovering his strength a bit, Chu Chen went to the small door outside.

Immediately afterwards, he knocked twice on the door, and the two soldiers guarding the door exchanged puzzled glances.

He opened the door and went down the steps: "Oh, why is the light off?"

"Who knows, who came to add oil to the lamp last night?"

The two were chatting in Rodo's language when, unbeknownst to them, Chu Chen was moving incredibly fast in the darkness.

Before the two soldiers could react, they were reduced to two cold corpses.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Chen went up the steps, rushed out of the small door, closed the door behind him, and then leaped onto the roof of the building.

This place was originally intended as an exit by the King of Rhodo to guard against emergencies, so no heavy troops were stationed here.

Only one small team was arranged, about twenty people.

But no one has ever come out of this thing since it was built, and all they do every day is add oil to the lamps in this passage.

Moreover, there was a stone gate blocking the way, and they could not find the exit no matter how far they walked each day; it was a dead end.

Although they were puzzled as to why they had been assigned to guard this place, they simply obeyed military orders and received their pay.

Who cares what you use it for? Besides, it's such an easy job, everyone's happy to have some free time.

Therefore, their vigilance was greatly relaxed.

To make the job easier for everyone, the team leader assigned only two people to be on duty each half-day.

If any unusual situation occurs, strike the gong next to you.

Unexpectedly, the two were very curious and went down to investigate after hearing the sound.

Chu Chen took care of it all at once.

After Chu Chen flew onto the roof, he took a quick look around and understood what was going on.

This is just an ordinary building in Rhodes, probably intentionally designed by the king of Rhodes.

At this moment, he was already some distance away from the palace.

Since that's the case, let's go all the way, cause some trouble, and then go back to Great Xia.

After saying that, Chu Chen moved with incredible speed and headed towards the palace.

On a small hill outside the palace, Chu Chen stopped and observed that no one was around.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Chen produced a pile of rocket launchers and rockets.

Meanwhile, inside the council hall of Rhodo, the king of Rhodo was looking at the messengers below.

"How are the preparations for attacking Great Xia going?"

"Reporting to the King, the troops have been assembled and are ready to attack in half a month, as the Great Xia envoy mentioned."

"No, we'll move the time forward by five days, catching Great Xia off guard."

"Keep the Xia envoy for now; he might be useful in a critical moment. Xia's horses are no match for our snow-crossing horses, and they can't cross the difficult pass of the snow-capped mountains with a large number of soldiers."

"This attack is mainly aimed at weakening the power of the Great Xia. They have just recovered from natural disasters and their national strength is declining. Haha, then we'll slowly wear them down."

King Rhodes sat in his seat, speaking eloquently about his plans.

"My lord, if we fight a protracted war, what will become of my provisions, Rhodo?"

"It's alright. The latest batch of supplies is already on its way to the border. You can focus on fighting the enemy."

“We will set off immediately and deliver the king’s orders.”

After saying that, the group headed out of the palace.

King Rhodo was overjoyed after arranging everything.

"Officials, the Great Xia is currently weak. We should unite as one and strive to enter the Great Xia by this time next year and enslave its people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of sycophantic voices erupted from below.

Along with the sound, a strange object trailing a long plume of smoke also sped in from outside.

"Eh, which beloved official prepared this surprise...?"

Before King Rhodo could utter the word "joy," the rocket slammed into a pillar in the main hall, followed by a deafening explosion that blew half of the pillar away.

The crowd paused for a moment, then swarmed towards King Rhodo.

"Protect the King! Enemy attack!"

"Quickly, quickly, protect the king!"

Meanwhile, on the hilltop outside, Chu Chen watched the rocket hurtling away and said, "Haha, this thing is not bad, it works quite well, but its power is a bit weak."

After launching more than ten rockets, Chu Chen immediately thought of the coast guard ships in space.

I thought to myself, this thing can't move on land, but it can be used as a naval gun.

With a thought from Chu Chen, a huge coast guard ship came to rest on the mountaintop.

Chu Chen flew aboard the ship and soon activated the ship's cannons.

Immediately afterwards, the terrifying rate of fire of the 75mm naval guns unleashed a barrage of shells toward the entire Rhodo Palace.

Inside the Rhodo Palace, explosions, shouts of battle, and cries of agony suddenly filled the entire sky.

"Your Majesty, hurry, get into the tunnel!"

While King Rhodes was still somewhat dazed from the bombing, a general pulled him towards the back of the throne.

He took the lead and kicked open the door to the secret passage.

But just as King Rhodo was about to enter the passage, a sudden explosion came from inside, and the soldier who rushed in first was blown to pieces.

At this moment, King Rhodo was considering retreating. Seeing the explosions ahead, he stopped in his tracks, thinking to himself, "Why are there explosions everywhere? Have I offended the gods?"

But the officials behind did not see this scene. They only saw the soldier say "Tunnel" and then pull the king toward the throne.

So they all flocked there.

As soon as King Rhodo stopped, he noticed a tremendous force pushing him from behind.

Turning his head, he saw that the officials behind him were all heading this way, forcefully pushing him into the tunnel.

"Don't push, don't push, the situation inside is unclear, don't..."

King Rhodo cried out to those behind him, but his voice was quickly drowned out by the fleeing people outside.

Immediately afterwards, two loud bangs echoed in the passage, causing him to lose consciousness instantly.

And the people behind them continued to push them forward.

King Rhodes lay on the ground, and the passage was now completely dark; no one could see anyone else.

King Rhodo never dreamed that he would not be killed by the enemy on the battlefield, but would die in front of a group of cowardly officials.

The soldiers guarding the fortress were bombarded by a barrage of artillery fire and had nowhere to go.

The bolder ones simply opened the fortress door.

Immediately afterwards, the commander and his soldiers rushed into the fortress.
