She Live Streams Modern Life to Ancient People After Failing to Conquer the Emperor

Chapter 56: What’s so surprising about drones



Chapter 56

Gu Sang's words hit the ancients like a thunderbolt, causing their blood to freeze and their breath to halt!

A single cannon could destroy half a city wall - what a frightening concept!

And these flying vehicles equipped with weapons could become powerful tools on the battlefield?

And they could move so nimbly without any pilot?

Gu Sang: "I'll be training here for a while longer. You'll probably see some other weapons."

"Actually, these aren't even the most powerful. We have aircraft carriers at sea, fighter jets and drones in the air, and missiles on land - a comprehensive defense system across land, sea, and air."

"But you won't be seeing the aircraft carriers - they're patrolling the seas."

"As for smaller missiles, I heard there's an experimental test in a few days. You should be able to see those."

Upon hearing Gu Sang's reply, the warriors were brimming with eagerness.

Earlier, when the battlefield was being livestreamed, Gu Sang had a brief chat with the instructor, never expecting to be so fortunate as to catch the small missile detonation test in just a few days.

While the warriors were exhilarated, Pei Changying was fuming!

He said through gritted teeth: "If you don't share these weapons with me, is it because you're afraid that once I have them, the nation under my rule would surpass your future world?"

"I've thought about this a lot recently. If you come back to admit your mistake and teach me these things, the position of empress..."

No, that wouldn't work.

This was absolutely the kind of tyrannical emperor persona found only in novels!

Gu Sang could barely control his laughter: "Haha, Pei Changying!"

"Do you know how many bullets these weapons fire per minute?"

"With your nation's financial and material resources, even if I gave you an unmanned aerial vehicle and machine gun for free, you wouldn't be able to produce a single bullet!"

"Were you about to offer me the position of empress to get me to share the manufacturing methods for these weapons? Delusional! Let's end the livestream here. I'm not going to waste my breath arguing with a beast like you."

Gu Sang mercilessly shut off the livestream screen, leaving only the split screen showing the Elder Princess's side.

The others, including Pei Changying, didn't need to see what came next!

In the Lingnan Region.

The Elder Princess Pei Weiqi had already brought the sturdy troops she had recruited and positioned them to watch the livestream.

A few tables were set up nearby, with a group of scholars seated and eagerly awaiting Gu Sang's next move.

The camera panned.

Gu Sang could be seen approaching an instructor he had arranged to meet with, respectfully inquiring: "Instructor."

"I wanted to ask you a few questions."

"If I were a highly respected princess in ancient times, and the emperor was depraved and tyrannical, how would I quickly recruit and train new soldiers?"

The instructor's serious expression showed a hint of surprise.

Listening to Gu Sang's hypothetical scenario, he guessed: "Is this for a TV show you'll be filming in the future?"

"This plot is quite interesting - a princess wanting to become empress. The difficulty is no small feat!"

Seeing the instructor sit down and pat the chair beside him, Gu Sang politely took a seat and continued asking: "If we applied modern thinking to ancient warfare, even without these modern weapons, there would still be a chance of winning, right?"

The instructor was silent for a few seconds before seriously answering: "Yeah, there would be a chance."

"There's a saying, 'He who wins the hearts of the people wins the empire.'"

"And another saying, 'The people regard food as heaven itself.'"

"Since the emperor is depraved, there must be many displaced commoners. Organizing the commoners would be a formidable force. Don't underestimate the power of the peasants - peasant uprisings have occurred since ancient times..."

"What do the commoners lack most in ancient times? Food!"

"They'll follow whoever can feed them."

"And..."

"You'll also need strict rules and regulations. Without them, these peasants will just be a disorganized rabble. So scholars and high-ranking generals become all the more important."

How difficult it is for a woman to become emperor!

But!

In the face of stubborn ideologies and the struggle for survival against hunger, what outweighs what?

As long as the people's food, shelter, and transportation needs are met, a woman will gain the people's trust!

The Elder Princess Pei Weiqi, standing beneath the livestream, listened intently.

The more she heard, the faster her heart raced!

For a full hour, the instructor spoke about recruitment, training new soldiers, various battle formations and configurations, and the training of high-ranking generals.

The scholars watching the livestream were all stunned.

Previously, they had mistakenly thought the people of the future relied solely on weapons after seeing the training livestreams.

But they never expected that a single instructor would possess so much knowledge. In ancient times, such a person would undoubtedly be a brilliant general or minister!

Seeing how eager Gu Sang was to learn, the instructor smiled: "There are so few actors as dedicated as you these days."

"I have a new recruit training manual on my computer, written from my years of experience. If you're interested, I can send you a copy now."

Gu Sang's face lit up with delight as he stood up and bowed: "Really?"

"I need it very much. Thank you, instructor!"

After gratefully receiving the file, Gu Sang quickly returned to his dorm room.

Once he confirmed no one was in the room, Gu Sang closed the door and made some minor modifications to the wording so the ancient people could better understand the modern terminology.

After the edits, he said: "System, you mentioned before that once I accumulate 10,000 merit points, I can unlock information transmission. Please help me send this new recruit training manual to Pei Weiqi."

"Transmitting the file requires deducting 100 merit points. Proceed?"

A small sacrifice for a greater gain - he would earn it all back eventually.

Gu Sang reluctantly agreed: "Send it."

"Merit points deducted. File delivered."

On the screen, a paper document fluttered down in front of the Elder Princess.

The Elder Princess reached out and glanced at it, her usually calm face flickering with excitement and gratitude: "Gu Sang, is this from you?"

"Such a special paper, so thin and smooth. The person who can make this is truly remarkable."

Gu Sang nodded: "I can't transmit modern weapons or objects to you, but thankfully paper documents can be transmitted."

"This is enough! With this, we'll be one step closer to our goal!"

Seeing the burning ambition in the Elder Princess's eyes, Gu Sang revealed the same smile.

He reminded her once more: "Of course! You've already reached the Lingnan Region, right?"

"Search for crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes as soon as possible. I'm worried that Pei Changying may come to his senses one day and send people to look for them. You must monopolize crops like sweet potatoes before he reacts."

"Also, gather some craftsmen here in the next few days. I will inquire about weapon manufacturing at that time."

"Although your material conditions cannot produce modern, precise weapons, you should be able to make crude cannons, firearms, and the like......"
