Chapter 514: Air Force Sprays Sulfuric Acid

"Outrageous! Simply outrageous!"

"Has this land of Yongliang truly become the private garden of this Prefect Liu!"

Dong Feng was pushed to the side by the Liangzhou Army, his anger flaring up to the heavens.

He was a dignified Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works; wherever he went, he was surrounded by sycophants. Yet, in front of this Prefect Liu, the man wouldn't even spare him a glance!

Scoundrel!

Insulting his superiors!

Dong Feng was so angry he felt like he might vomit blood.

"My Lord, My Lord..."

"Calm your anger, My Lord, please calm your anger..."

Dong Feng was so dizzy with rage that he gritted his teeth, a cold, sinister glint flashing in his eyes: "I will make him pay the price, pay the price!"

Someone beside him said: "My Lord, this Prefect Liu looks very arrogant, who knows what will happen! Hmph, does he really think this Blockage of the Ship is so easy to solve? Let us stay here and watch him make a fool of himself for now!"

"Furthermore..."

"Before long, he will enter the capital! When that time comes, will the Emperor be able to tolerate him?"

Hearing this, Dong Feng slowly nodded, the murderous intent in his eyes fully revealed: "No matter what, as long as he arrives in Jinghua, he will not be able to leave alive!"

As he spoke.

This group of people from the Ministry of Works also began to watch the spectacle from the sidelines.

Three days?

Three days to clear the ship blockage, are you joking?

Just at this moment.

Someone exclaimed: "Quick, look, what is that!"

"Is that the bird-men of their Liangzhou?"

"Gliders?"

At this first glance, Dong Feng became even more unhappy!

Gliders!

When this thing first became popular in Longyan, the Minister of the Ministry of Works had summoned him.

Could it be replicated!

Could it be replicated?

Since when did my Ministry of Works become an agency for copying others!

But what made him even more devastated was.

The Ministry of Works spent a huge sum of money to buy back a glider, studied it for a long time, and, well, they simply failed to replicate it!

A slap in the face!

This was a real, solid slap in the face!

Therefore, his hatred for this Prefect Liu could be imagined.

He couldn't help but sneer: "Does this Prefect Liu intend to use that Quelehuoduo of his to burn these stones to nothing?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a group of people burst into laughter.

Burning stones?

This maneuver was indeed a bit baffling.

They were baffled.

The hundreds of thousands of people present were also baffled.

Because just a moment ago, the Liangzhou Army had mobilized, and no one was allowed within at least a mile of the three ships that had overturned with the Cement!

All ships blocked here were cleared out!

Some people wanted to resist, but were forcibly removed.

The people blocked here were all wealthy merchants with backers behind them; at first, they didn't care about these things, but soon, they were taught how to behave by the cold and ruthless Liangzhou Army. If you don't comply, get beaten!

The people at the scene, cursing and bruised, were cleared out to a distance of one mile away.

Therefore.

At this moment, when they saw these bird-men blotting out the sky, they were still baffled.

The formation looked quite grand, but what is the use of that? For two months, all kinds of equipment from the Ministry of Works had been used, and they still hadn't managed to pry open these three big stones. You think a group of bird-men can do it?

These people.

Were also waiting to see this Prefect Liu make a fool of himself.

They scoffed and mocked incessantly.

This is not a military exercise; this is about actually solving a problem!

You're putting on such a flashy show, what is the use of that?

Everyone was waiting to see this Prefect Liu make a fool of himself.

The person running the betting pool saw their business become even more booming.

Looking at it this way, this Blockage of the Ship was about to become the Waterloo of this Prefect Liu since his debut!

Buy!

Bet on his failure!

The scene was almost entirely betting against Liu Zheng.

Beside the Prince of Yong, one of his sons also secretly said: "Father, shall we go and place some bets too?"

The Prince of Yong could neither laugh nor cry: "Get out!"

This time, the Air Force unit had one thousand men in total. As each person flew into the air, they held a small bucket in their hand; the bucket was not large, for if it were too big, the Glider likely wouldn't be able to fly, and if it were too small, the capacity would be insufficient, rendering it meaningless.

Vast and mighty.

Regardless of whether others were optimistic or not, this group of "birdmen" flying in the sky still made many people's eyes light up with envy.

Humans, actually able to fly in the sky—this group of people began all sorts of discussions, pointing and gesturing.

Seeing the first batch of the Air Force unit had already arrived directly above the three sunken ships.

"Pour!"

Jiang Xuan shouted loudly.

"Pour!"

The first batch of the Liangzhou Army opened the buckets in their hands, and the Sulfuric Acid inside poured out in an instant, appearing like a torrential downpour in the air. In reality, this operation was highly difficult; it required these Liangzhou Army soldiers to all fly at the same horizontal level, otherwise, the splashing Sulfuric Acid could easily cause great damage to the Gliders. No one dared to say what would happen if that occurred.

However.

This was also the best Method Liu Zheng could think of.

The three sunken ships were already on the verge of sinking to the riverbed; at this time, having people walk up to pour Sulfuric Acid posed uncontrollable risks. He did not want his brothers in the Liangzhou Army to lose their lives because of these three large rocks.

He could only think of a way to pour the Sulfuric Acid from the air.

However, the drawbacks of operating in the air were also very obvious: the Sulfuric Acid was prone to dispersing and could not be concentrated in one spot.

Furthermore, it was easily diluted by the Jiangshui, which greatly affected the corrosive effect of the Sulfuric Acid.

Therefore.

Liu Zheng demanded that these Liangzhou Air Force soldiers fly as low as possible, even lower!

Bang, bang, bang!

Bucket after bucket of Sulfuric Acid, following this "torrential downpour," landed on the tilted sunken ships and on the protruding Cement boulders.

The first wave.

Ended just like that.

People watched, dumbfounded.

Huh?

That's it?

Many people could not help but burst into uproarious laughter.

They had thought this Prefect Liu intended to burn down the sunken ships and the Cement blocks.

As it turned out, you came to water them?

"Hahahaha!"

"Oh my, you're killing me!"

"What is this Prefect Liu doing?"

"Is he trying to raise these Cement blocks?"

"Pfft..."

Everyone was laughing, almost without exception.

Dong Feng, watching from over there, was also laughing uncontrollably.

That's it?

With just this, he dared to mock him, saying that his resting was actually a form of cooperation?

Fine!

I will stay right here and wait for you, Prefect Liu, to come and beg me!

The second round of the Air Force spraying had already begun.

Another wave of Gliders, another wave of Sulfuric Acid.

Another identical operation.

Another precise spraying onto the sunken ships and the Cement blocks.

And then...

Another round of uproarious laughter from the entire crowd.

There was no reaction!

These sunken ships and Cement blocks showed absolutely no reaction!

Is this Prefect Liu here to put on a show today?

Then, the third wave, the fourth wave...

In the end, even the Prince of Yong was sweating profusely, but his trust in Liu Zheng kept him from speaking up to ask what was going on, and what exactly this Prefect Liu was trying to do...

Until the sky began to darken.

Liu Zheng then said calmly: "That's enough, withdraw the troops!"

"Huh?"

A group of people were completely bewildered.
