Chapter 54: Listening to Thunder in the Silence

Seeing that the thunder that had been ignited did not move, Yu Wenwen began to worry that the fuse was not strong, he felt that if he turned off the fire halfway and made a dud, it would be embarrassing, his father-in-law was embarrassed, and his son-in-law was also embarrassed, of course, it didn't matter if he was thick-skinned, but it was a little too much for the old prime minister to come to the stage.

Wei Chi specially summoned his nephews and henchmen to form a luxurious lineup to watch the performance, if the performance was smashed, the scene would be a little ugly.

Thinking of this, Yu Wenwen couldn't help but glance at his father-in-law again, his face was calm, his heart was a little calm, and he listened attentively, only to feel that the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter, thinking that if it could be detonated normally, he secretly said that it was not good in his heart.

'The darkness before dawn, it was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers, but it also reflected the brilliance of the morning sun. ’

Thinking of this, Yuwen Wen couldn't be ashamed, and silently covered his ears.

'Listening to thunder in a silent place, what is the face, or the ears are important!' ’

Wei Chi Xuan, who was full of anticipation, waited for an unknown amount of time and didn't hear any movement outside, and was about to say something to Wei Chi Shun when suddenly a loud bang came, like countless big bells ringing in his ears.

He felt only a ringing in his ears, and then he couldn't hear anything, and the surroundings became quiet, silent. And the ground shook visibly, as if thousands of horses were running by, and the ground shook as if it was about to crack.

Wei Chidun's heart seemed to have been hit by something, and he almost stopped moving, and then he fluttered and beat non-stop.

A wave of slightly hot air rushed from behind the wall, blowing him with dust, so that his eyes were almost unable to open, and something wet was on his face, and he raised his hand to wipe it down and looked at it carefully, but it was some bloody minced meat, Wei Chi was shocked in his heart, touched his face and head, and found that there was nothing missing.

Looking around, he found that everyone around him was stunned, and Sipilo, who was standing beside him, stared at the direction of the sky behind the wall, and Wei Chi Dun followed his gaze, but saw a puff of black smoke rising in the direction of the carriage behind the earthen wall.

The black smoke looked like a mushroom in the field, and it looked very strange.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his father's pale face and covering his chest, which seemed to be a little inappropriate, and his brother Wei Chishun was holding his father, Wei Chi Shun was shocked and stepped forward to ask, but he didn't expect to hear his own voice.

"What's going on, what's going on!!" Wei Chidun shouted, but his ears still couldn't hear anything, and a sense of fear welled up in his heart: Could it be that I am deaf?

How so? What if I'm really deaf!!

If you are deaf and can't hear sounds, you can't hear what others say, so how can you go into battle and command your soldiers?

He suddenly looked around helplessly, but saw that Wei Chiqin and the others were also covering their ears, and looked at their father, but saw that their faces had recovered their blood, and shook off Wei Chi Shun's hand and ripped off the earmuffs.

Wei Chidun saw that his father was talking to him with his mouth open, but he saw that his mouth was open and closed, but he couldn't hear any sound, so he pointed to his ear in a hurry, indicating that he couldn't hear the sound.

The smell of dust everywhere made Wei Chi Shun feel a little choked, and he saw his brother Wei Chi Shun step forward, patted his shoulder, and then smiled and waved his hand, signaling not to panic, and his heart was a little calm.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a long-lost voice in my ears, there was a cough, there was a sound of talking, Wei Chi found that his hearing was recovering, and his heart was very happy, and when he saw his father walking around the earthen wall and towards the field, he also hurriedly pulled his legs to follow.

After walking out of the earthen wall, the lieutenant Chi Dian looked into the field, and then froze, in front of him was a gray cloud, and the ground was a mess: the wall that used to be next to the carriage had become a ruined wall, and the cattle, sheep and horses tied to the stakes had turned into bloody wreckage.

He and the rest of the people walked forward quickly, and the carriage was nowhere to be found, and the place where it stopped was as if it had been smashed by a sledgehammer, and a shallow pit appeared on the ground, and everyone could not help but be stunned when they saw this scene.

On the remaining wooden stakes around the shallow pit, not to mention the sheep that were originally tied up, and the cattle and horses weighing hundreds of pounds have now been torn apart.

Most of the stakes on which the armor hung were broken, and many of them were damaged, some of the leather ropes were broken, and the armor leaves were scattered to the ground, and the shields that stood up were all broken, and most of them, except for a few, were broken into a few pieces.

The neighing of the horses kept coming, and Wei Chidun looked back, but saw more than a dozen war horses tied to the edge of the field, jumping incessantly trying to break free from the reins, all of them seemed to be in a state of loss of control, and he was frightened.

"The power of the thunder is so strong..."He muttered to himself, seeing the scene in front of him for a while, he couldn't come back to his senses for a while, Wei Chi Dan led the troops to fight for many years, but the power of the thunder was beyond the scope of his cognition.

He couldn't see how the thunder destroyed the living creatures at the scene, but the feeling of the earth shaking, and the feeling of temporary deafness in his ears, but really, the short-term fear after losing his hearing was really unforgettable.

Wei Chiqin, Wei Chijing and others nodded silently when they heard this, and they personally experienced the power of the thunder on the spot, which is unforgettable for life.

If these cattle, horses, and sheep are replaced by soldiers in armor, within more than ten steps around this thunderstorm, the soldiers are afraid that they will either die or be disabled, and the soldiers who are farther away will not be much better.

If it is a battle, the originally dense military formation can bite out a gap alive, and the loud sound of thunder is enough to make the war horses lose control, and they were caught off guard, one by one, they lost their hearing, and it took a while to recover.

Yu Wenwen, who had escaped a catastrophe, walked to Prime Minister Wei Chi Yuan's side, looked at the mess, and then turned to the other party and said: "Prime Minister, two years ago, at the mouth of the two rivers in Jingzhou, Shannan, our army dispatched more than ten carriages full of thunder at the same time. ā€

"More than 10 cars!! No wonder!! ā€

Everyone gasped when they heard this, a carriage equipped with thunder was not small, and at the same time, more than a dozen carriages attacked together, no wonder the rebel army formation would be instantly destroyed.

Seeing the power of this thunder, the soldiers asked themselves if they were attacked by the other party on the battlefield with this trick, and it would be strange if the soldiers did not collapse.

Even if it is only a short period of loss of control, the consequences are quite serious, as long as the opponent takes the opportunity to storm and the front end of their own army formation collapses, and then it will lead to a series of routs.

"This thunder... The power is so huge, why is it rare to use Yuwen Xingtai later? Wei Chijing asked, his question also woke up others, Yuwen Wen sighed when he heard this, and saw that everyone's eyes were focused on him, and then opened his mouth to answer the question:

"There are a lot of materials needed to make thunderstorms, several of which are not very easy to collect, and they are rare in Shannan, so it is not easy to make, and they can't do much in a year, so they will not be used easily unless they are forced to do so."

This is half-true, firstly, it is quite difficult to collect sulfur in the Shannan realm, and secondly, Yuwenwen deliberately shows weakness, giving the other party the wrong impression that "Shannan can't do too much thunder".

"No wonder, no wonder I haven't seen Shannan use it again..."Everyone nodded when they heard this, if such a powerful weapon can be made casually, then how can the battle be fought in the future.

field, boom; Siege, boom; Defending the city, or rumbling, in the face of such terrible ordnance, personal bravery is useless.

"San Lang, is it really difficult to collect the materials to make the thunderbolt?" Wei Chi asked him, he had personally experienced the power of the thunder, and his heart almost couldn't stand it, it can be seen that with such a huge power, he was overjoyed and only felt that there was hope for defeating the enemy, but when he heard that the materials were not easy to collect, he became concerned.

"Father, there are indeed a few materials that are quite rare, but the territory under the rule of the imperial court is vast, which is not comparable to Shannan Prefecture, and it is laborious to collect but it will not be too difficult." Wei Chishun replied, except for Shannan, he is the only one who has mastered the secret recipe of thunder, and he only dared to report to his father after this matter was confirmed and confirmed.

"Good, good, good!" Wei Chi said three "good" words in a row, "What is needed, the imperial court will give priority to it, how many people are needed, all of them are fine!" ā€

"Father, there is this thing, and the day of Yang Rebellion's conferment is not far off!!" Wei Chidun said excitedly, it sounded like the production of the thunderbolt was a bit troublesome, and it might cost a lot of money to solve, but he felt that it was very cost-effective.

The place in Shannan is poor in material, so the thunder can't be used, but the imperial court has a lot of resources, as long as there is a prescription, then follow the prescription, and make a large number of thunder at all costs, and the war will be much smoother.

"Uncle (Prime Minister), please transfer the thunder to the nephew's (last general) army!!"

Wei Chiqin, Wei Chijing and Xi Piluo all said impatiently, the power of the thunder is huge, it seems that it can not only fight in the field, but also attack the city, if there is enough thunder, it is not a problem to break through the city wall.

Field battles can also disturb horses, but it seems that they can also disturb their own horses, so their own horses have to be adapted to avoid losing both, but they all see the hope of defeating the enemy.

Looking at the scene of everyone's excitement, Yuwen Wen didn't say a word, to be honest, he hoped that Sui Guo would finish as soon as possible, so he didn't worry too much about handing over the secret recipe of the thunder, but

There are still some doubts about whether the thunder can help the imperial court and destroy the Sui State like a withering and decaying state.

With the help of this thing, it is no problem to gain an advantage on the battlefield, but it is difficult to say how far it can be advantaged, when the two Song Dynasty had primary gunpowder weapons, and later there was a thunderstorm, the same can not beat the Liao army, the same can not beat the Jin army.

On the other hand, if the Sui State really perishes soon, another war will start later, and there will be no buffer period for the Yuwen clan at all.

The war may have been a civil fight, and then the two sides compromised with each other and ended in a milder ending, but it could have been a bloody fight, and only one side would survive in the end.

Yu Wenwen looked at the men of the Wei Chi family in front of him, and thought about his father and brother, and secretly encouraged in his heart: "You have to be hard to strike iron, and I can't wait!" (To be continued.) )
