Chapter 50: The Power of the Dynamite Pack

Li Shimin and the civil and military officials in the Xuanzheng Hall came to the outside of the hall together.

In order to make the ministers clearly understand the huge power of gunpowder, this experiment was not used as a cannon battle like the previous two times, but a special explosive bag made by Wang Dazhui.

Wang Dazhui believed that the power of the explosives package would definitely surprise the civil and military officials present.

The venue for the experiment is the school field where the Yulin guards train and assemble on weekdays, and the surrounding area is open, which is very suitable for Wang Dazhui's requirements.

In the center of the school field, there is a dynamite bag made by Wang Da Hammer, which looks like a package for those who don't understand, but this package is a bit special, that is, it has a long lead.

There were five or six scarecrows dressed in armor like soldiers around the explosives bag, and Wang Dazhui wanted to test how lethal his dynamite bag was to Datang's armor. In this way, the great power of explosives can be judged more intuitively.

Seeing that the emperor and all the adults had come to the school, the commander of the school, Yulinwei, immediately stepped forward to report: "Weichen has seen Your Majesty, and everything that Manager Guo has prepared has been prepared. ”

"Now that you're ready, let's start experimenting!" Li Shimin glanced at Wang Dazhui and said.

Seeing that the emperor was looking at him, Wang Dazhui took the initiative to walk up to the people and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, you have all seen that what we are testing is a weapon made of gunpowder that I just talked aboutβ€”an explosive bag. Let's use a scarecrow in soldier armor to verify whether what I said is true. ”

After saying that, Wang Dazhui told Li Shimin and the ministers to retreat to a safe distance, and then personally took a torch and lit the fuse of the explosive package.

As soon as the lead was ignited, sparks shot out, making a loud sound, for safety, Wang Da Hammer made the lead relatively long, from igniting the lead to detonating the explosive package, Wang Da Hammer estimated that it should be about a minute.

This time is enough for Wang Sledgehammer to retreat to a safe distance after lighting the fuse.

Everything went well, after Wang Dazhui lit the fuse, he immediately turned around and left, and as soon as he retreated to Li Shimin's side, the explosive package was completely detonated.

Listening to a loud "boom", the props used for the test were instantly blown into the sky, turning into pieces of pieces, and the straw inside was burned to ashes by the high temperature generated by the explosion of the explosive packet.

The test was very successful, and the loud sound of the explosive bag and the extraordinary destructive power were vividly displayed.

At the moment when the explosives package exploded, the entire school field felt shaken, and Li Shimin and the ministers covered their ears and grew their mouths, completely stunned by the scene in front of them.

A few ministers who were less timid were so frightened by the loud noise just now that they sat on the ground.

Because the explosives pack was relatively primitive, it produced a huge amount of smoke, and a pungent smell of sulfur choked everyone's cough.

The smoke cleared, and I saw a small dirt pit on the test site just now, and the prepared props were basically blown to pieces.

"This ...... This is a weapon made of gunpowder? Looking at the scene in front of him, Wen Chen was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.

However, the generals were particularly excited when they saw this scene, as if they had seen the scene of the enemy being crushed and flesh flying in front of them, and it was really pleasant for such a weapon to be used to destroy the enemy.

I believe that if the explosives package is used well, then there is nothing in this world that can stop the army of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how strong the generals and soldiers are, they are not enough in front of such a killing weapon.

At that time, it was not the Buddha who blocked and killed the Buddha, and the demon blocked and killed the demon, and it was estimated that the strong city wall would not be able to withstand the explosion of a few explosive packs.

"Ahem...... it's really scary!" A timid minister got up from the ground, clutched his chest and said with palpitations.

The colleague who sat on the ground with him was frightened and agreed: "Yes, it's terrible! ”

Wei Zheng's mouth was wide, and his eyes were as wide as bull's eyes, and he couldn't believe everything just now, he rubbed his eyes vigorously and found that everything was true.

Cheng Yanjin, Yu Chigong, Qin Shubao, Xu Maogong and others were full of excitement, and when the smoke dissipated, they immediately stepped forward to check the test props, and were shocked to find that their armor was like an ordinary cloth in the explosion, and it turned into debris and ashes in an instant.

The soldiers on the school field were also stunned, looking at the middle of the field in a daze, unable to speak for a long time, and after a while, they woke up from the shock.

Seeing this scene, Wang Dazhui stretched out his arm and waved it vigorously: "My Emperor Shengming, the Tang Dynasty is mighty, invincible, invincible!" ”

The soldiers immediately subconsciously followed Wang Dazhui and shouted in unison: "My Emperor Shengming, the Tang Dynasty is mighty, invincible, invincible!" ”

As soon as the slogan was shouted, Li Shimin smiled when he heard it, and the more he looked at Wang Dazhui, the more he liked it, this little guy was so smart that he knew how to use this opportunity to boost morale.

If it weren't for the fact that Wang Dazhui was just a child now, Li Shimin really couldn't imagine what earth-shattering things he could do.

After the test was over, everyone returned to the Xuanzheng Hall again.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that everyone has witnessed the power of weapons made of gunpowder, I believe that as long as you are not blind or deaf, you should understand what such a weapon means to a country." Li Shimin said excitedly.

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, and then look at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and finally fixed his eyes on Wang Dazhu's body.

At this moment, they have completely regarded Wang Dazhui as a child anymore, this is simply a terrifying demon, fortunately he is a citizen of our Tang Dynasty, if he is a Turkic or other country, it is unimaginable, it is definitely a nightmare.

"Back to the emperor, this gunpowder is really a good thing, with it, no one in our Datang will dare to offend, even to expand the territory and set foot on the barbarians." Qin Shubao's words were excited, and his face turned crimson, as if he had taken a stimulant.

Wei Chigong also came out and said: "The last general echoed Marshal Qin's statement. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Xu Maogong also said.

One by one, the generals came forward to express their thirst for gunpowder.

On Wen Chen's side, everyone's faces looked a little heavy, obviously they thought of a more long-term and profound than the generals.

Gunpowder is a double-edged sword, and once such a terrifying weapon of destruction is used in practice, the consequences are incalculable.

They began to think about how to control gunpowder, not to make it uncontrollable, and to limit and use it more reasonably.

Wang Dazhui also understands that gunpowder must be strictly controlled and firmly in the hands of the state, and only by strictly managing it will it not be used to do something harmful to Datang Society.
