Zhao Xin sat up straight and looked ahead intently. There, a clay pot filled with gunpowder had been placed into a pre-dug pit and then filled completely, and a fuse a foot long, soaked in salted water, extended from the pot.

With Liu Yongnian's order, the soldiers of the forbidden army holding torches lit the fuse.

The arquebus immediately burst into flames and continued forward.

Because it has been soaked in nitrate water, the fuse burns steadily and slowly.

This gave the surrounding soldiers enough time to retreat.

And Zhao Xin began the countdown.

"Ten...... Nine...... Eight...... Seven...... Six...... Five...... Four...... Three...... Two...... One...... Zero ......"

When he counted down to zero, the whole person immediately curled up and ducked behind the wall.

At this moment, the fuse in the school yard ahead, in the earthen pit, had already burned into the clay pot.

The fire immediately ignited the black powder contained in the clay pot.

The gunpowder was tightly wrapped in oiled paper.

The moment it was ignited, the core temperature inside the pot immediately climbed to 1,000 degrees Celsius, and the high temperature caused the nitric acid to decompose, producing countless amounts of oxygen, which caused the sulfur and charcoal to burn, releasing more gases.

At 0.001 second, black powder at high temperatures released various gases equivalent to 10,000 times their volume.

So, the explosion happened.

Rumble!

Like thunder, moving in the nine abysses, and like a thunderbolt ringing in the ground.

Everyone heard the loud bang.

Even the buildings on the ground shook a little because of the loud noise!

Some people whose minds and courage were not strong enough even knelt down on the spot in fright by this loud noise.

Even a brave general like Liu Yongnian was so frightened that he immediately pulled out his sword and blocked in front of Zhao Xin.

Of course, he didn't do useless work.

Because, with the explosion, the soil in the pit, the gas that was blown up, rushed into the air, and then quickly fell.

Countless dust, flying all over the sky, like rain, fell on Liu Yongnian's body.

And Zhao Xin saw the opportunity quickly, and his body was spotless.

At this time, people finally reacted, and their eyes trembled and looked at the school field in front of them.

There, there was already a thick smoke, a pungent smell of sulfur, filling the air.

The pit on the ground has been completely blasted open, and the pit has expanded several times more than before!

Someone tried to get closer, but saw a steaming, hot and frightening pit of dirt.

All around the pit were blown up, and even the solid surface of the original vicinity also appeared with undulating folds and cracks.

"This is a spell that only the gods have......" Seeing this situation, someone said tremblingly.

As a result, Zhao Xin's aura has another layer.

The gaze of awe, fear, and adoration lingered on him.

Zhao Xin felt all this, and his heart was also very excited, but on the surface, he still pretended to be calm, beckoned Liu Yongnian to his side, and then took off the piece of paper stuffed in his ear, and asked: "Liu Qing, how much is the crockpot in Fangcai?" ”

"Back to the Duke of the Kingdom, the charge is five catties!"

"Five pounds?" Zhao Xin smashed his mouth: "Too much!" ”

Five catties is 3,480 grams of black powder with extremely high purity!

Zhao Xin made a simple calculation, and knew that this power was indeed a bit excessive.

Because that's about the same as the power of a 400-500 gram TNT explosion.

The kinetic energy released is enough to move a one-kilogram object 100 kilometers.

"Load it up and give it a try...... he commanded.

"No!" Liu Yongnian received the order tremblingly, and then took the same trembling forbidden soldiers, tremblingly holding a clay pot, and poured out the black powder filled in it and wrapped in oiled paper.

Then, weigh with a trembling scale.

………………………………

In the political hall, today should have been the second minister Li Di, who had just entered Beijing, sitting in the hall to know the seal.

However, he was too old, so the official family specially allowed him to recuperate at home, and his work was handled by Lu Yijian.

Therefore, in fact, the Great Song Dynasty is still a one-man system.

Even more powerful than in the past, Lu Yijian's power is greater.

Because, he can now know the seal for at least five days a month, and these five days, the political hall is his final say.

At other times, he can also rely on the position of prime minister to dominate the entire political hall.

This made Lu Yijian's power even higher.

Now, there is a faint status of the prime minister of Taizong, Han Wang Zhao Pu, and the prime minister of Zhenzong, Li Xin.

Zhengfu, it's almost up to him.

Moreover, his beloved son Lu Gongshu has already entered the Spring Fang and has become the assistant minister of the emperor's heir.

The present and future of the Lu family are very good.

Lu Yijian was full of ambition and was in a good mood.

He was holding a pen, brewing thoughts, and was about to write a poem.

Suddenly......

Rumble!

The loud sound, like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, frightened him so much that he didn't even hold the pen steady.

"Spring Fang!" Lu Yijian dropped the pen and followed the sound, he knew that the voice came from Chunfang.

So, he was so frightened that he hurried out of the house, immediately summoned the ruling and main officials in the ministry, and hurriedly rushed towards Chunfang.

At the door, Lu Yijian met the ministers of the privy palace who also followed the sound and hurried.

But they haven't had time to say hello yet.

Another roar rang out.

Although the sound was much quieter than before, it still made their hearts difficult to maintain, and they almost fainted.

………………………………

Yanhe Temple.

Zhao Zhen was reading a poem that had just been sent from Dinghai.

This is his number one licking dog, and the famous Liu Yongliu Sanbian is a poem that eulogizes his literary and martial arts achievements in the past few months.

This poem, blowing Zhao Zhen, is almost the eternal emperor of Yao Shunyu alive and the resurrection of the five emperors.

What Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty are not worthy of lifting shoes for him.

Although it looks fake, Zhao Zhen is still very happy.

After all, in the past few months, his life as an official has indeed been very cool.

Along the border, the West Thief no longer lost the arrogance behind the Sanchuan Pass, and was surrounded by Fan Zhongyan, Xia Zhu, and Han Qi to mix three fights.

The Uighurs and Tibetans also cooperated with the Great Song Dynasty and cut off contacts and trade with the Western thieves.

Even the Liao people seemed to be unhappy with the western thieves and intended to join the siege.

It's just that the Liao people are more hypocritical, and they want the Great Song Dynasty to spend on the military.

If this had been last year, Zhao Zhen might have agreed.

Can ...... now

Don't say that you have to pay for the Liao people to participate in the war, Zhao Zhen can't wait for the Liao people not to come!

So that he can do this great work and surpass his father!

In terms of civil affairs, the situation is also very good!

The pox method was successfully promoted from Kaifeng Mansion to Jingdong Road and Hedong Road, which not only made a lot of money for pox, but also ruthlessly scraped the hearts of the people.

His rule is now as secure as a mountain, and he is no longer afraid of any challenge.

The official family who is in a good mood is of course in a better mood when he sees the hymn written by the number one licking dog.

"Liu Yong is a person, but he also knows ......" he thought: "I might as well give him grace and promote him to ......"

"It's not okay to transfer to Beijing......"

Liu Yong now only has a name, and this name is too deeply entangled with lace news, and he rashly transferred to Beijing, Zhao Zhen knows that this will set a bad example, and I am afraid that in the future, the talents of the Great Song Dynasty will be blatantly drunk and lying on the flowers.

The impact on the social climate is too bad.

So......

He picked up his pen and wrote on a piece of paper: Dinghai Xiaofeng Yanyong, the judge of the small state in the vicinity.

The judge is the last threshold before selecting a person to transfer to Beijing, that is, the ceiling.

In this way, not only will the licking dog be rewarded, but it will not cause any bad effects, and you can also quickly receive the hymns written by the licking dog at close range.

was about to call someone to send this order to Liunequan so that Fu Bi could carry it out.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the direction of Daqing Palace.

Like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, when the official heard the sound, he was so frightened that he threw the pen aside, and hurriedly called people: "Zhang Weiji!" Zhang Weiji! ”
