Drilling wood for fire is the most primitive method of collecting fire for human beings, and later there were fire tools such as flint and flint and fire folding.

It can be said that before the Song Dynasty, the scientific and technological level of the Han people was world-leading.

It cannot be said that it is sad that the West has been able to carry forward the advanced technology of the Han people after introducing it, and at the same time, it must be admitted that the wisdom of the Westerners, especially in the manufacture and use of firearms, has left their ancestors behind a whole era.

To get back to the point, because Nurhachi came too suddenly, Andes and Piero have not yet succeeded in smelting wrought iron, not because their technology is not good, but because there are too many limiting factors, the most important point is the shortage of materials.

However, these two guys were not idle, in order to prove that the two of them were not eating for nothing, after Ye Xun put forward the theory of friction and fire, these two people actually improved the detonation device of the mine.

Since firearms have been used in warfare on a large scale, landmines are no longer high-tech, but at this time, mines obviously cannot be compared with later triggers, and someone must use a fuse to ignite them.

Through the ideas provided by Ye Xun, these two foreign devils changed the open flame fuse to friction fire and detonated it, which is not counted, once these fuses are ignited, they are not only detonated by mines, but also chemical weapons that have always been regarded as military secrets by Ye Xun.

What Huang Taiji and the others smelled just now was the smell of the drug that had smoked them before, and the fuse was lit by the flagpole that read "Nurhachi died here".

The underside of the flagpole is made of fine iron, so that when someone pulls it out forcefully, it will cause sparks due to friction.

"Father Khan, the eunuch is plotting again, everyone immediately cover their mouths and noses and don't inhale poisonous gas"

The possibility that Ye Xun would use chemical weapons was also expected by Nurhachi and his subordinates, so before Huang Taiji finished shouting, including Nurhachi, he had already consciously covered his mouth and nose.

This time, Nurhachi can be said to be well-prepared, and the cloth used to cover his mouth and nose has been washed with potion in advance, and he has asked the shaman to cast a spell, which is absolutely foolproof.

But Ye Xun's methods obviously don't stop there, the masks of the Jurchen army have not yet been worn, and the mines under their feet have finally been threatened.

"Boom, boom"

The earth-shattering explosions exploded one after another in the Jurchen army, and the first to bear the brunt was the Jurchen elite at the forefront.

Jurchen warfare has always been like this, with the Jurchen soldiers opening the way to attack the fortifications, and the servant army following behind to take advantage of the fire.

In the rumbling explosion, the forward battalion, including Nurhachi, was quickly enveloped in thick smoke, and it was impossible to see the casualties, anyway, Nurhachi's banner was invisible.

In fact, in the confrontation with the Ming army, the Jurchen army was no stranger to the weapon of landmines, they just didn't expect Ye Xun to bury mines so far and so much.

The explosion continued, but the Jurchen army in front of him was already in chaos, and at this time, Eyidu, who had already rushed to the earthen fort, was also stunned by the explosion behind him, looking at the chaotic scene behind him, he couldn't believe it for a while, when did the Ming army have such a powerful weapon?

Without the support of the rear, what is the use of being brave and brave?

Just when Eyidu hesitated to withdraw, a horse suddenly flew out of the billowing smoke, and immediately the knight was so smoked that he couldn't see his original appearance.

I saw that the knight suddenly pulled out a scimitar in the gallop and made a chopping motion at the forehead.

"It's Huang Taiji!"

This action and the scimitar are all known to him, and he is also a veteran of the battlefield, so he knows that he can't mess up at this time, otherwise he will definitely give Ye Xun a chance.

Thinking of this, he turned his horse's head and prepared to command his subordinates to respond to the enemy, but this seemingly short time was undoubtedly fatal on the battlefield.

With the sound of explosions here, Eyidu's attacking team stopped and turned around to look.

Behind the earthen wall on the other side of the earthen fort, countless human heads suddenly appeared, and then there was a crisp sound of bangs.

"Buzz!"

It was as if after a loud roar, the sky darkened, followed by countless screams.

Looking at the elite of the Zhenghuang Banner led by Eyidu, hundreds of people fell in the blink of an eye, and even Eyidu was shot with a few arrows, and this was just the beginning.

The Han people defended it heavily, especially in Liaodong, where wars were frequent, and the soldiers and civilians in the cities and towns of the Ming Dynasty took this ability to the extreme.

After the first round of strikes, firearms such as crossbow arrows, fire systems, thunderbolts, and divine fire flying ducks began to play freely.

The explosion was accompanied by screams, and the outskirts of the earthen fort soon became a hell on earth, except that this time it was the Jurchens who died.

In fact, such a result was something that even Ye Xun himself didn't expect, he was ready for a bloody battle, but he didn't expect that his own arrangement would make the Jurchen not even pass through the first line of defense, he knew this, he would have prepared more cavalry on the periphery.

Thinking of this, Ye Xun couldn't help but be secretly angry, Jin Taiji, this waste, can't grasp such a good opportunity, you deserve to be destroyed by the old slave, if you always be a shrinking turtle in this battle, Lao Tzu will kill you first that day.

Unlike the human purgatory outside the earthen fort, the head of Tieling City was already a sea of cheers.

With Father-in-law Ye here, there is really no need to be afraid of Jiannu anymore, now that Father-in-law Ye has not yet made a move, he has already killed Jiannu, how can he not be excited?

Xu Hongru, who was standing at the head of the city watching the battle, frowned slightly, although he also hoped that Ye Xun would win, but he didn't expect Ye Xun to win so easily, combined with the recent experience of dealing with Ye Xun, Xu Hongru knew that he had to reformulate the strategy of approaching the little eunuch.

At this time, there was another change on the battlefield.

The mines eventually ran out, and the bunker fired unreservedly, and the arrows and ammunition quickly ran out.

Ye Xun waved his hand and ordered the archers to retreat.

Ye Xun knew that the actual damage to the Jurchen in the first battle would not be very great, after all, the power of the mines in this era was there, and the important thing was to hit Nurhachi's confidence, but I don't know if it killed this old guy.

The overall damage of the Jurchen army in the rear was indeed not large, but there was not much left of the elite of the Zhenghuang Banner led by Yi Yidu, because the blow was too sudden, and he was not given a chance to react at all.

Huang Taiji, who was already smoked like an African chicken, stared at the corpse of the Yellow Flag soldier in front of him, and did not recover for a long time.

How did it come to this? How did it happen?

Countless questions have always lingered in Huang Taiji's mind, but there has never been an answer.

As the smoke from the mines gradually dissipated, the outline of the Jurchen army gradually became clear.

Looking up, there were wailing Jurchen soldiers everywhere, the formation had long been scattered, and then looked at the original position of Nurhachi, but saw a group of people lying on the ground, and after a while, someone finally moved, and then they all staggered to their feet, including Nurhachi, who was covered in dust and blood.

It turned out that in the battle with the Ming army, the Jurchens also learned how to best mitigate the damage they received in the explosion, that is, lying down.

So as soon as the explosion sounded, Nurhachi was the first to throw himself from his horse to the ground, and his crotch horse was killed.

The other Jurchen executives who were not killed were all the same.

Looking at the mess everywhere, Nurhachi, who had come to his senses, couldn't help but be angry and angry, "Poof! A mouthful of blood spurted out of the ground, and the man fell backwards.

"Father Khan!"

"Great Khan! Come on, escort"

Nurhachi could see Ye Xun just now, and the situation of Nurhachi at this moment, of course, also fell into Ye Xun's eyes.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Nurhachi! Don't be afraid, I'm coming."

As soon as the sound came, Ye Xun jumped up like a big bird and rushed towards the direction where Nurhachi fell to the ground
