My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World Chapter 200: Blueprints

Xue Ruhong nodded and replied, "Yes. They are afraid of being dismissed, so they work more diligently and never ask questions. In that regard, they outperform the others."

"However, for security reasons, we can’t assign them to any confidential projects. They can only work at the lowest level."

After a mont of thought, Feng Xiyan asked, "Do you need more workers at the smithy, General Tan?"

Tan Pengtai shook his head. "We have enough workers for now. But we do need more skilled blacksmiths to forge special weapons and armor."

Before Feng Xiyan could respond, the bronze mirror was suddenly enveloped in a dim golden light.

The mont Feng Xiyan and the generals saw this, they walked to the altar and clasped their fists.

"Xiyan greets Fairy Bai."

"This subordinate greets Fairy Bai."

Sitting behind her desk in the study, Bai Hanyun was startled by the sudden greetings. She patted her chest and muttered, "After not seeing them for two days, they really do look healthier and energetic."

After calming down, she said, "Good morning, Feng Xiyan and generals."

It has been two days since they last talked. Hearing her voice, Feng Xiyan smiled. "Good morning, Fairy Bai. It’s been two days since we last spoke. How have you been?"

"I’m doing fine," Bai Hanyun replied, then added, "Feng Xiyan, I found a suitable weapon for you to use."

After saying that, Bai Hanyun sent the blueprint over to him. A second later, three pieces of paper appeared on the altar.

While Feng Xiyan and the generals examined the blueprints, Bai Hanyun explained, "This weapon is called Qin Nu, the king of cold weapons."

"It has high accuracy, can shoot heavier and larger arrows, and maintains precision up to 800 ters. It’s equipped with a trigger, making it easier to control. Based on the information I have gathered so far, this Qin Nu can pierce bronze armor with no problem."

"It’s excellent for defending against close-range attacks, but it also performs well at long range due to its extended shooting distance."

"Although the Qin Nu is nothing compared to modern hot weapons, you can manufacture them yourselves, so there shouldn’t be any issue with weapon or arrow shortages."

After explaining the Qin Nu, Bai Hanyun continued, "The second weapon is called Mo Dao, or Zhan Ma Dao. It’s a two-handed sword with a long body, specifically designed to deal with cavalry."

"It’s a heavy weapon, potentially up to three ters long and weighing around twenty jins, suitable for use by barrier troops, archers, and crossbown in close combat."

"The na Zhan Ma Dao cos from its primary function, cutting down horses on the battlefield."

While listening to Bai Hanyun’s explanation, Feng Xiyan and the generals grew excited. If they could forge the Qin Nu and Mo Dao, their offensive and defensive strength would be doubled.

Looking at the third blueprint, Feng Xiyan asked, "Fairy Bai, what about the third blueprint? Why does it only show a tube and so powder?"

Bai Hanyun grinned. "That’s the best one of the three. The third weapon is gunpowder."

When Feng Xiyan and the generals heard this, they exchanged confused looks.

Seeing their expressions, Bai Hanyun realized they didn’t know what gunpowder was.

’Ah, so they don’t know about gunpowder. That’s good. If Feng Xiyan and his generals don’t know, then the enemy likely doesn’t either. This could be the Feng Army’s hidden trump card.’

With this thought, Bai Hanyun said, "Feng Xiyan, the powders shown are sulfur, charcoal powder, and saltpeter. The ratio is 75% saltpeter, 15% charcoal powder, and 10% sulfur. When mixing them, make sure there is no fire or water nearby."

"Although its explosive damage is limited, it should be sufficient for battlefield use."

After listening to Bai Hanyun’s explanation, Feng Xiyan and the generals were montarily stunned.

Seeing them staring blankly at the blueprints, Bai Hanyun asked, "Feng Xiyan, do you understand the instructions? If not, you can ask now."

When she said that, Feng Xiyan snapped back to his senses.

Carefully placing the three blueprints on the altar, he clasped his fists and said sincerely, "Xiyan thanks Fairy Bai for these gifts. With these three heavenly weapons, the Feng Army will be able to protect the nation and its people from enemies’ invasion."

Bai Hanyun smiled and replied, "You are my friend. This is the least I can do."

Just then, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Hua Yuyu, she answered the call.

"Brother Hua, do you need sothing?"

A second later, Hua Yuyu’s voice ca through the speaker, "Miss Bai, the kerosene has arrived at your warehouse. Would you like to check the goods?"

Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up at his words and quickly replied, "Give five minutes."

"Alright."

After ending the call, Bai Hanyun looked at the surface of the antique mirror and said, "Feng Xiyan, I bought so kerosene for you. It just arrived, so I need to pick it up. I will contact you again later."

Without waiting for Feng Xiyan’s response, she tapped the mirror’s fra twice and ended the connection.

Seeing the dim golden light vanish from the bronze mirror, Feng Xiyan sighed in disappointnt. Looking at the three blueprints on the altar, he thought, ’I hope we can speak longer next ti.’

Unaware of his thoughts, Tan Pengtai exclaid excitedly, "Great General, this is incredible! If we can forge the Qin Nu and Mo Dao, we won’t need to fear the Yuezhi Tribe or any other nomadic clans again!"

Nodding in agreent, Zhan Qi added, "That thing called gunpowder sounds amazing too! If it is as strong as Fairy Bai said, we can use gunpowder and crush the enemy!"

Taking the three blueprints from the altar, Feng Xiyan handed the Qin Nu and Mo Dao blueprints to Tan Pengtai and said, "General Tan, select trustworthy, skilled blacksmiths and form a new team to forge these weapons."

Tan Pengtai accepted the blueprints, clasped his fists, and responded, "This subordinate accepts the order!"
