Chapter 118 Trouble with Gunpowder

It's scary!

The Wenchen of the Great Song Dynasty is very terrifying!

They do the most important thing in their lives who can complete the goal, and they can dedicate their lives at any time in order to achieve the goal, as long as the history can be famous, the flesh is really just a broken sack for them. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the early days of the empire, the goal of the ministers was to rule the country and level the world.

In the later stage, they found that the goal of governing the country and leveling the world was a bit difficult, so they converted the goal into the most terrifying infighting.

These past few years have been the time to dominate people's hearts with the great wish of establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a life for the people, continuing to learn for the saints, and opening peace for all generations.

The scholars and doctors all took these four sentences as the ultimate goal of their lives, tied their heads to the waistbands of their trousers, and launched this war to recover the river.

Huo Xian was telling the truth, if it was possible, he would really load himself on a trebuchet and throw it on the mouth of Yeongawa.

doesn't care about his own life, so naturally he doesn't care about other people's lives, such as Yang Huaiyu's.

may be destined in the dark, Yang Huaiyu fell from the city just when the iron egg was about to ignite the gunpowder.

To be precise, he was kicked down from the city, and at the same time, the Song army who had just rushed to the city was kicked down.

Qingtang's iron-armored foot soldiers went to the city, and Yang Huaiyu couldn't kill an enemy with more than a dozen knives, so he naturally had to choose to leave the city.

Fortunately, there was a thick layer of dead corpses under the city, and although they fell on it, they were rescued by loyal soldiers.

Yang Huaiyu had not completely left the battlefield, and the gunpowder bag placed in the trebuchet had already begun to smoke.

With the roar of the soldiers, countless gunpowder packets flew up to the city with gunsmoke.

When the first round of explosions began, Huo Xian's mouth could no longer be closed, because the flying rubble and human stumps had already enveloped the city tightly.

The stumps of the rocks were all splashed out of the billowing smoke, and the rolling smoke was like a man-eating beast wreaking havoc on the city of Yanchuan.

The dark red flames flickered, along with the well-groomed battlements of the wall......

Huo Xian looked at Tie Dan in surprise, gritted his teeth and said, "This is not human!" You have stolen the power of God! ”

Tie Dan looked at the one in front of him that had burned to the roots, and said, "This is just the beginning, Hami not only has the power of the gods, but also the power of the demon gods. ”

As soon as the words fell, the earth suddenly trembled, and a muffled sound that was suppressed to the extreme came, Huo Xian could barely stand on his feet, and he could barely stand firm by holding on to the battle flag next to him.

After the rumble, the earth stopped trembling, and the city of Yeoncheon in the distance was shrouded in dust.

Tie Dan didn't need to look there to know what the consequences were, gently greeted the warriors from Hami, and left the battlefield quietly while Huo Xian had not woken up from the shock.

As long as Brother Yuan helped Yang Huaiyu take Yanchuankou by himself, he didn't say that he would stay forever to help these people.

Hami still has countless things to do, how can he put manpower and material resources in Qingtang?

Leaving the Song people with the idea that the Hami people are invincible will be beneficial to the cooperation between the two sides in the future.

Fist-sized gravel splashed out of the smoke, Yang Huaiyu and the lucky Song Jun held a huge shield together, letting the stones clank on the shield, hiding their heads and tails and not daring to confront Tianwei.

The war horses left on the battlefield had disappeared, Yang Huaiyu's ears were buzzing, and Yu Hou opposite him was shouting with his mouth wide open, but he couldn't hear a word......

The cold wind in the spring finally blew away the dust in the valley, and Huo Xian knelt on the ground with a puff, raised his arms and roared miserably: "Oh my God! ”

Yang Huaiyu, who couldn't hear the sound, turned his head ignorantly, his eyes were about to burst out of his sockets, and he tried hard to support himself so that he didn't bend his knees.

The unattainable wall is gone......

There are only rubble and half-truncated wall ruins everywhere, not only that, but the urn city behind the city wall is full of dead corpses of Qingtang people, they are lying on the ground very quietly, only one or two frightened war horses have blood in their eyes, and their ears are bleeding together, and they want to stand up, but they still fall to the ground after all......

Iron Egg rode his horse across the wasteland, and in two hours they had already run eighty miles.

Seeing that the three war horses were already exhausted, they dismounted and rested for a while, and in just two hours, the potential of the three war horses was exhausted in the rapid gallop.

Counting that everyone here has been busy all day, and running for another eighty miles is already the limit.

The sun has already set, and if you rush again, there will inevitably be casualties.

After tying the belly pockets of the war horses and feeding them some water and plants, everyone barely ate some dry food, and one by one they fell asleep in thick sheepskin jackets.

After sleeping until dawn, Tie Dan rubbed his lower back, got up with the help of the samurai, and climbed back onto the horse.

Brother Yuan said that after this thing is done, he must use the shortest time to cross over from the Western Xia Kingdom and return to Hami.

Because of the mercenary matter, Tie Dan and more than forty warriors still have no problem going to the Western Xia border.

"Brother Jiu'er, we helped them blow up the city wall, this is a great achievement, why do you want to run?"

Tie Dan took a bite of the naan and said, "Yes, you have made a meritorious service, what if people want to know the secret recipe of gunpowder?" Do you know or do I know? ”

The warrior beside Tie Dan shouted: "In addition to the king, the people who know the secret recipe of gunpowder are the eldest brother (Li Qiao), the fourth brother (iron fire), and the fifth brother (molten iron), we know a fart." ”

Tie Dan smiled: "Yes, we don't know, but the Song people here think we know, if people ask, we say we don't know, do you think they will treat us?" ”

The samurai paused for a moment, then whipped his horse's ass and said, "Let's run faster and go back early to settle down." ”

Yang Huaiyu and Huo Xian sat on the cold stone, looking up at the cliffs on both sides of the Yanchuan Pass, and after a long time, Huo Xian said to Yang Huaiyu: "You and Tie Xinyuan intersected in Tokyo, did you ever know about this thing?" ”

Yang Huaiyu shook his head and said, "You already asked yesterday, and you don't know anything about this thing. ”

Huo Xian sighed and said: "I knew that Tie Xinyuan's learning was quite miscellaneous, You Shan miscellaneous, the purification of glass, and fierce fire oil were all from his hands, could it be said that the improvement of gunpowder was also from his hands?" ”

Yang Huaiyu smiled bitterly: "It shouldn't be strange......

Huo Xian stood up from the stone with shaking hands and sighed: "From yesterday to now, the old man has never closed his eyes for a moment, as long as he closes his eyes, it seems to see the mushroom cloud rising and the stump rubble flying around."

Until now, the old man still thinks that this is the power of gods and demons. ”

Yang Huaiyu said with a smile: "No matter what, this force is helping us, now that Yanchuankou has won a big victory, the heart of Fuzun should be put down." ”

Huo Xian didn't have much joy on his face, patted the boulder blackened by gunpowder beside him and said, "How fierce the big ghost is, how difficult it is to get down to Yanchuankou, this is all expected by the old man."

As long as we are willing to sacrifice enough, we can still take it.

But...... Gunpowder...... Alas, this is not a human power. ”

Yang Huaiyu said with a smile: "This thing is in the hands of the horse, and Ouyang Xiu is supervising them on the side, Mr. is too worried." ”

Huo Xian pointed to the group of Qingtang people who were escorted over: "How strong these barbarians are, the old man is not worried, the most they can do is nothing more than to disturb the border pass of my Great Song Dynasty, these people can't enter Tokyo City, and even if they do, they won't be able to last long."

However, our horse master is not a barbarian, on the contrary, he is still a Song man who rarely has the name of a prodigy, and he has read poetry and books after growing up.

I'm more worried about him than a barbarian. ”

Yang Huaiyu Huo Ran got up and said, "This is impossible!" ”

Huo Xian looked at Yang Huaiyu's eyes and said: "Since Li Yuanhao's sudden rise to strength, in the past fifty years in this world, no one can be called a hero. ”

Yang Huaiyu smiled bitterly: "Hami is three thousand miles away from my Great Song Dynasty, isn't it a little unfounded for Mr. to say these words?" ”

"If there is no such improved gunpowder, the old man is naturally worried, and now, you have also seen the power of gunpowder with your own eyes, Huai Yuxian nephew, do you still think that the old man is worrying about the sky?"

Yang Huaiyu shook his head and said, "Tie Xinyuan won't do this. ”

Huo Xian pointed in the direction of Hami and said, "The messenger who pursued the source of the iron heart is still missing for more than eighty miles, doesn't this still explain the problem?" ”

Yang Huaiyu frowned and said, "What does this mean?" ”

"What does it mean? It shows that the Hami people are guarding against us! ”

"That doesn't mean ......"

"Wake up, Huaiyu, the occupation of Hehuang is important to my Great Song, but it is even more important to Hami.

Once we occupy Hehuang, we can spy on the Hexi Corridor, and once we take Hehuang, the next place that must be taken is the Hexi Corridor.

The purpose was to open up the connection between the Great Song Dynasty and Hami, so as to form a complete encirclement of the Western Xia.

Now it seems that this matter needs to be discussed a lot, and if there is a hungry wolf, if there is another tiger, the disaster will be even more tragic. ”

Yang Huaiyu scratched his head and said, "What you're worried about is just Hami's gunpowder, if we also have gunpowder, wouldn't it matter?" ”

Huo Xian laughed and said, "Everyone has run away, do you think King Hami will hand over Hami's lifeline to me Da Song?" We are worried about the future movements of Hami, do you think Tie Xinyuan is not worried about the movements of the Great Song Dynasty?

This is a major event that the hearts of the people want to turn their backs on, and no king will easily give up his greatest reliance, even if Tie Xinyuan is my Great Song Dynasty's concubine! (To be continued.) )
