Bai Wei was not in a hurry, looking at Chen Yeye with a smile.

She knew he would agree.

Sure enough, Chen Yeye agreed.

He even helped her write down in detail the method for manufacturing Landmines.

Explosives, white sugar, and a container can make a land mine.

He also said that this method was invented by a famous patriot surnamed Wang during the War of Resistance; at that time, he taught the militia and guerrillas to make land mines, making the Japanese invaders howl in misery!

Thirty thousand infantry defeating one hundred thousand Barbarians is an impossible thing in ancient times.

But as long as modern weapons are added, it can be done!

……

Late at night.

An Archaeology Team truck quietly drove into the village and delivered five hundred catties of Explosives to Bai Wei's Farm.

Professor Ye gave repeated instructions.

"You can't tell anyone about this! And these Explosives, I can only give them to you once; don't let it happen again."

Manufacturing Landmines on a large scale in modern times would get one invited by the police, but there are no restrictions in ancient times.

Chen Yeye made ten Landmines.

He also drew the method of making Landmines and the ratio of Gunpowder on paper and handed it to her.

Bai Wei transmitted the paper over, and also transmitted several catties of Explosives and tools to Xiao Moting, instructing him to find craftsmen to research and develop them according to the diagrams.

She told him this was the best weapon for dealing with cavalry.

She did not dare to send too many Explosives.

For one, the Explosives were too precious and could only be used this one time.

For another, she was also afraid that an ancient craftsman might have a shaky hand and blow up Xiao Moting's main camp.

In addition, she also transmitted ten Anti-Explosion Suits over for the craftsmen to wear.

Making Landmines is extremely dangerous; if they were the slightest bit careless, the craftsmen would be blown to death.

After transmitting the supplies, Bai Wei walked out of the Farm.

She arrived at a wild shooting range.

The owner was squatting on the ground, tinkering with a Bow and Arrow without even raising his head.

Bai Wei asked, "Boss, do you have Qing Bows? I want to buy a batch!"

This was a location she found online, seeing that they sold Qing Bows here.

The information said that the Qing Bow was improved by the Qing army and was the pinnacle of Huaxia bows, known as the "King of Bow and Arrow," equivalent to a short spear thrower.

It was powerful, not inferior even when fighting against a Fire Musket, and could break through the Barbarians' Rattan Armor!

Upon hearing that she was there to buy equipment, the owner turned his head.

"Yes, I have Qing Bows here."

"Can you demonstrate one?"

"Sure thing!"

The owner took a Qing Bow down from the wall and took out an arrow.

The huge Qing Bow was 1.6 meters long in total, and the arrow was also over a meter long, thicker than a finger and incomparably sharp.

When Bai Wei saw it, she was immediately amazed in her heart.

No wonder the internet said the Qing Bow was the ancient version of an "anti-tank rifle," an armor-piercing weapon!

The bows of Daliang were all made of tree branches, their power not even one-tenth of this; in front of it, they were nothing.

"Bang!"

The owner shot an arrow, and the arrow easily pierced through the target!

Bai Wei was extremely excited watching this and immediately took out her phone.

"I want ten thousand Qing Bows! I need arrows too."

The owner had another equipment shop in the city and said there were only two thousand bows in the Warehouse; if she took them all, he would give her the wholesale price of 1,800 yuan each. But the arrows were special Tungsten Steel Arrows, and the price of one arrow was 300 yuan.

300 yuan for one arrow!

Bai Wei clicked her tongue in surprise; sure enough, war is just burning money.

"Boss, can this arrow pierce Rattan Armor?"

"It can even pierce a Steel Plate! But if you use it to pierce armor, you can only use it once, because tungsten steel is brittle and the arrow tip breaks easily."

Bai Wei nodded; it was worthy of being the ancient version of an anti-tank rifle, truly overbearing!

The disadvantages were also obvious: it was a disposable item and burned money!

Sure enough, war is just burning money; whoever has less money gets beaten!

But it didn't matter!

She was not short on money at all and could afford to burn it!

If the money ran out, she would just have Xiao Moting transmit a few more antiques over to sell!

Bai Wei finished negotiating the business with the equipment shop and was about to leave when she saw a Long Blade hanging on the wall of the shooting range.

"This is an Improved Zhanma Dao," the owner introduced. "The blade is 1.8 meters long, and the edge is the sharpest Mo Dao from ancient times. It is my collection, not for sale..."

"I'll pay ten times the price."

Owner: I take back what I just said.

Ten minutes later, Bai Wei returned to the Farm with the items she had bought.

Because she was afraid of the villagers gossiping, she bypassed the village entrance and snuck in through the remote back door of the Farm.

Bai Wei teleported the horse-chopping saber over.

At this time, the rice, Dried Noodles, chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and other logistical supplies for battle she had ordered also arrived, but Bai Wei had expended some energy and rested for a while.

It seems that teleporting items really does involve space-time separation.

But she would do everything in her power to let Xiao Moting win this battle!

Bai Wei teleported the Flying Fish Suit over again and wrote a line on the wooden board of the wardrobe.

"The battle robe and the horse-chopping saber are both for you."

"Prince of Northern Suppression, hurry and put them on to see if they fit—∩▽∩"

……

"Prince of Northern Suppression, hurry and put them on to see if they fit—∩▽∩"

Xiao Moting had already changed into the Flying Fish Suit, his jet-black long hair tied up, holding the horse-chopping saber, looking sharp and handsome.

This battle robe was too exquisite; he had never worn such fine clothing.

Xiao Moting was a little unaccustomed to it, his handsome, heroic face slightly flushed, and the tips of his ears were even burning hot.

He did not know what he would look like wearing it.

Several subordinates were circling the Qing Bow and arrows, constantly exclaiming in admiration, drool flowing from their mouths.

"Hiss, this divine bow is truly mighty and imposing!"

"Shennü Daren said that these arrows are specially made and can pierce through the Rattan Armor of the Barbarian cavalry!"

"Really? As expected of weapons created by the Goddess, they are simply too amazing!"

As the few men looked up and saw Xiao Moting walking over with the Long Blade, they all opened their mouths wide in unison.

The twenty-two-year-old young Prince of Northern Suppression, having changed into his new battle robe, looked like a completely different person; he was simply youthful, handsome, and extraordinarily beautiful!

On the ground sat a cardboard box with the words "Landmine, dangerous item, do not touch" written in large red letters; it was filled with ten heavy clay pots, and they dared not move them.

Xiao Dabao ran over, saw the cardboard box, his eyes lit up immediately, and he shouted while swallowing his saliva.

"Hehehe, Shennü Daren has sent canned food again..."

Before the others could react, he had already picked up a Landmine and bit down on it.

When the others looked up and saw, they were so scared they ran straight outside.
