Chapter 488 Bet

Everyone is looking forward to the second horse race, but not everyone is looking forward to watching the horse race, some people want to see Su Cheng's gun even more.

For example, Lu Dongzan, the envoy of Tubo.

He had seen Datang's artillery, and the range and power left a deep memory on him, and he was shocked every time he thought of it.

It was also because of the artillery that both he and Zanpu felt pressured, because the artillery would bring Datang's military strength to a higher level.

When he came to Datang again on a mission, he heard another piece of news that shocked him.

Su Cheng, Duke of Ankang County, actually made a new firearm, called the musket. It is said that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and all the important ministers praised it greatly, thinking that it was the most important weapon of the country that surpassed the artillery!

After Lu Dongzan heard the news, he couldn't believe it. He had witnessed the power of the artillery, but how powerful the artillery was even considered by the Emperor Datang to surpass the artillery?

After repeated inquiries, he had no choice but to believe it, because the strength of muskets was no secret in the court.

The only thing he was curious about was what kind of musket?How powerful is it?What is the range?Are there any disadvantages?

However, it was difficult for him to inquire about too specific information, and it was even more impossible for him to see muskets.

But he never expected that he would see muskets on the racetrack.

I heard that Su Cheng once killed a Japanese warrior with a short musket, so it must be this musket.

Lu Dongzan greedily looked at the musket in Su Cheng's hand, wanting to explore the secret of the musket, but he couldn't see anything at all.

Because Su Cheng's musket was fired upwards, he couldn't even see the power and range.

Not only Lu Dongzan, but other envoys were also very concerned about the musket in Su Cheng's hand.

Bang!

There was the sound of musket guns, and amidst the shouts that shook the sky, twenty horses neighed and rushed out. This round of competition was actually more intense than the previous round.

But one person was a little absent-minded about horse racing. Princess Zhenzhu drove her horse to Su Cheng's side, keeping her eyes on the musket in Su Cheng's hand.

When Su Cheng fired the gun for the first time, Princess Zhenzhu was attracted by the musket.

What is this?Princess Zhenzhu was full of curiosity.

But when she thought that she had written a war letter to Su Cheng, she was a little embarrassed to go up to ask, but in the end, curiosity prevailed over everything.

"Mr. Ankang, what is this in your hand?" Princess Zhenzhu asked curiously.

Su Cheng turned his head and glanced at Princess Zhenzhu and said with a smile, "Guess!"

Seeing Su Cheng who turned his head and stared at the horse race again, Princess Zhenzhu really wanted to punch his smiling face with a fist.

What a nuisance!

If she knew what it was, would she come over and ask?

Seeing that the knights had crossed the finish line, Su Cheng turned his head and asked with a smile: "How is it? How about my son from Tang Dynasty? The distinguished princes will be on the stage soon, do you expect it?"

A bright smile appeared on Princess Zhenzhu's face, and she said crisply, "Guess?"

There was a black line on Su Cheng's forehead, and he raised the musket in his hand helplessly and explained, "This is a musket!"

Princess Zhenzhu suddenly said: "Is this a musket?"

Su Cheng nodded and said, "Well, the special short musket is easy to carry."

Princess Zhenzhu looked eager to try: "Can I have a try?"

Su Cheng said angrily, "Of course not!"

What a joke, the emperor is still on stage!Although the emperor is a bit far away, if Princess Zhenzhu shoots in the direction of the emperor, no one will be able to bear the responsibility!

Not to mention the emperor, there are so many people around here, what if Princess Zhenzhu went off with a musket?

Princess Zhenzhu pouted when she heard this, Su Cheng smiled and said, "But I can touch it for you!"

This little princess is quite arrogant.

While speaking, Su Cheng handed the short musket in his hand to Princess Zhenzhu.

Although you can't test the gun, it's good to be able to touch it. Princess Zhenzhu became happy again when she heard this, and her willow-leaf eyebrows curved with a smile.

Playing with the musket in her hand, Princess Zhenzhu snorted coquettishly, "It's nothing special!"

After playing with it for a few times, Princess Zhenzhu returned the musket to Su Cheng in disgust. This surprised Su Cheng, who thought Princess Zhenzhu wanted to find out the secret of the musket.

Handing the musket to the guard next to him, Su Cheng asked with a smile, "Princess Zhenzhu, what do you think of my Tang man's riding skills?"

Princess Zhenzhu nodded and said, "It's not bad either!"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "The princes of our Tang Dynasty are better at riding, look forward to it?"

"What is there to look forward to?" Princess Zhenzhu said casually.

"These princes are distinguished, personable, civil and military, proficient in riding and archery, cough, don't you feel very much looking forward to it?" Su Cheng asked.

"What does horse racing have to do with dignity or not? I'm looking forward to that white-hoofed crow, and your red rabbit horse. By the way, Su Cheng, let's make a bet?" Princess Zhenzhu said happily .

Su Cheng asked curiously, "Bet? What bet?"

Princess Zhenzhu said with a bright smile, "If I beat you in the horse race, then you can take me to a hot air balloon ride, okay?"

It turned out that what she was thinking about was riding in a hot air balloon, which is not a problem, Su Cheng said with a smile: "Yes, but what if you lose?"

"I won't lose!" Princess Zhenzhu was full of confidence, stroking Xiaohua's horse's head and said: "Isn't it Xiaohua, how could we lose?"

Su Cheng was speechless: "I still think I will win!"

Princess Zhenzhu thought: "Then, if I lose, then I will lose this to you!"

While talking, Princess Zhenzhu took out a gemstone the size of a pigeon egg from her arms, shining brightly in the sun, which shows that it is priceless.

"This is my favorite gem. It is priceless. Is my sincerity enough?" Princess Zhenzhu was afraid that Su Cheng would not like it.

In fact, Su Cheng didn't care about gems or not, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, let's gamble once!"

Snapped!

Princess Zhenzhu excitedly waved her whip in the air, and said excitedly, "That's great!"

Su Cheng is speechless, why does it seem like you have already won?

Su Cheng kindly reminded: "Don't be too happy, first you have to beat them before you have a chance to race horses with me, and then you have to beat me, do you understand?"

Princess Zhenzhu flicked her braid and said softly, "It's a piece of cake! I'll come to the next round!"

Just as he was talking, Li Chongyi immediately came forward and said loudly, "I'll do it this time!"

Over there, Cheng Chumo and the others also discussed, they also have to stagger, they are all brothers so as not to compete with each other, it will not be too late to compete in the finals, and Li Chongyi was sent to lead the battle.

"Are you going to participate in this round? Coincidentally, Princess Zhenzhu will also participate in this round of horse racing!" Su Cheng laughed.
