When Gao Ming and Liu Tao came to Chang'an City with cannons, the number of people who came out with them had reached tens of thousands, and the number was still increasing.

There is only one main reason for this result, and that is that the rugby game in the morning is over.

People have a herd mentality, and when they saw that there were many people gathered, they immediately gathered around them, intending to see what was going on.

And when they saw the swarthy cannon, they were immediately curious.

"Huh? What is that? ”

"I don't know, but it looks like it's a great thing!"

"Of course, didn't you see that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was also there?"

"Tsk...... It's really ......."

Hearing the people talking, the smile on Gao Ming's face on the horse became brighter and brighter.

"This must be an instant hit, right?"

Thinking of this, he immediately grabbed the reins of the horse and stopped, and then turned his head to look at Liu Tao.

"Ah Tao, how far are we from the Chang'an City Gate now?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Liu Tao hurriedly arched his hand towards him.

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, now we are about two hundred steps away from the Chang'an City Gate."

Datang's one step is equivalent to one and a half meters, and two hundred steps is three hundred meters, which is about twice the range of the archer, Gao Ming estimated that this distance was almost the same, and immediately nodded.

"Well, it's almost two hundred steps, turn the cannon around and put it at the gate of Chang'an!"

"Huh?"

After hearing Gao Ming's words, Liu Tao's eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of shock.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what did you just say...... Shoot at the Chang'an City Gate? ”

Chang'an, as the capital of the Tang Dynasty, belongs to the veritable "feet of the Son of Heaven", and Gao Ming, the prince of the dynasty, actually wants to fire cannons at Chang'an?

Liu Tao began to suspect that there was a fake prince in front of him.

Looking at Liu Tao's ghostly expression, Gao Ming didn't explain much to him, but directly turned over and dismounted, and then waved his hand.

"Come on, put Lao Tzu's Italian cannon...... Uh, no, drag Lao Tzu's Super Shenwei Invincible Fortress Cannon up, Lao Tzu wants to bombard the Chang'an City Gate! ”

"Yes!"

After hearing Gao Ming's words, several soldiers immediately turned around and aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the gate of Chang'an City.

Seeing this scene, Liu Tao suddenly became anxious.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, don't ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Gao Ming interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Liu Tao, you are responsible for going to the gate of Chang'an City to disperse the people, and then close the city gate so as not to cause accidental injury, this is a military order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!"

After speaking, Gao Ming ignored Liu Tao and began to fill the barrel with gunpowder.

Hearing that Gao Ming even said "beheading", Liu Tao could only grit his teeth and rode over to disperse the crowd at the gate of Chang'an City.

When Gao Ming filled the gunpowder of the cannon and corrected the angle of the cannon, Liu Tao had already dispersed the people at the city gate, and at the same time asked people to close the city gate.

Looking at this scene, Gao Ming nodded suddenly.

"Well, that's right, come on, get on the cannonballs!"

"Yes!"

At Gao Ming's command, a soldier immediately approached with a stone cannonball the size of a bowling ball and put it into the muzzle.

Seeing that the cannonball was put in, Gao Ming suddenly smiled.

"Hehe, it's time for me to play next, hand me the torch!"

"Yes!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the soldier standing next to him immediately handed him the torch, and after taking the torch, Gao Ming immediately used it to ignite the fuse at the end of the cannon.

Looking at the lead that was sparkling and also made a "hissing" sound, Gao Ming suddenly took two steps back, and then covered his ears.

The spark quickly burned to an end, and after only about a breath or two, a deafening sound suddenly rang out.

"Boom!"

As this huge voice sounded, everyone felt that the earth seemed to tremble, and some people who were less timid were directly frightened and sat down on the ground, and the originally lively crowd suddenly quieted down strangely.

At this moment, a shout suddenly rang out from the crowd.

"Oh no! God is angry! ”

As this voice sounded, the crowd immediately stirred, and soon, a large number of people knelt down and kowtowed like pounding garlic.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

"Damn, I'm just setting off a cannon, what's the matter with God?"

With that, he raised his chin at the soldiers next to him.

"Just go over and see where the shells hit? Others cleaned the barrels and inspected the cannons for damage. ”

"Yes!"

Under Gao Ming's order, the soldiers immediately began to act.

Soon, the soldier who had gone to check the location of the shells returned, and he trotted all the way to Gao Ming, and then knelt down on one knee and bowed his hand to Gao Ming.

"Returning to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the cannonball hit the city wall."

Hearing this answer, Gao Ming's face immediately collapsed.

"Nonsense, of course I know that I hit the wall, I want to know which side of the wall was hit? How far is it from the city gates? ”

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, the cannonball hit the city wall directly above the city gate, about a foot away from the city gate."

Datang's zhang is about three meters, and when he heard this answer, Gao Ming's face was a little better.

"The error of three meters is not too much, and the angle is no problem, okay, come on, put the tail of the cannon two inches higher, fill it with gunpowder, and prepare to put the second cannon!"

"Yes!"

Gao Ming didn't know that when he was happily firing the cannon, Liu Tao had already ridden straight to the palace.

As the person who personally supervised the construction of the cannon, Liu Tao was one of the few people who knew the principle of the cannon, and when he heard the deafening sound of the cannon, he knew that he was on the stall this time, and it was a big deal!

Bombarding the city gate of Chang'an, this kind of thing is a bully at best, and a rebellion at worst!

If the above is really investigated, Liu Tao doesn't know if Gao Ming has anything to do, but his result is a death!

Proper drops!

Thinking of this, Liu Tao's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he didn't know whether it was hot or scared.

"No, I don't care if I will offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now, I must report this matter to the Holy Lord, so that I can live!"

For Liu Tao at this time, any promotion to knighthood is false, and only saving his life is the main task at present.

After a stick of incense, Liu Tao finally came to the imperial study.

After seeing Li Shimin, he immediately knelt down with a "poof".

"Qiqi Sheng, the big thing is not good, the palace of the prince is bombarding the gate of Chang'an!"

As soon as Liu Tao's words fell, Li Shimin immediately gasped.

"Hiss......"
