"Turkic warriors, you are going to attack the Han people at night today. As long as you defeat the Han Chinese, you can get a big reward. At that time, you will be the heroes of our Turks. Jieli said.

The more than 10,000 Turks raised their bowls and drank the wine. They went to attack this time, that is, to get a reward. Moreover, they also believed that at night, when the moon was dark, the Han people would definitely not be able to aim at them accurately with their bows and crossbows. And once the Han people don't have bows and crossbows, they are at their mercy. They also think that the most powerful thing for the Han people is the bow and crossbow and that kind of firearms, but once it is night, these two things cannot accurately exert the combat effect, which gives their Turkic iron cavalry room to play!

"Gagged the horse's mouth, and then wrapped the horse's hooves around me so that the Han wouldn't find out." Said a Turkic general.

And the Turks immediately began to move, and they took advantage of the night, and then went out in white. They were here to prevent the snow on the snow from reflecting off them. When the Turks crept to a place three thousand meters away from Li Junxian's camp, they suddenly threw down their disguises, and then immediately mounted their horses and prepared to charge.

"Turkic warriors, charge me! Go kill the Han Chinese! The Turkic general shouted.

"Rush!" The Turks also shouted.

And at this time, those reconnaissance staff officers on top of the hot air balloon heard this, and immediately took out a cupola cannon, and then lit the fuse. It didn't take long for the cupola to rush out of the balloon and explode in the sky.

"Smack!" "Smack" "Smack!" "The cupola exploded immediately.

"Shhhh A whistle sounded immediately inside Li Junxian's camp.

Because they had trained many emergency gatherings before, these troops quickly assembled and formed a line. And everyone is ready to meet the enemy with bows and crossbows, so that they can avoid being attacked.

And the Turks, who had just rushed a kilometer away, were accelerating their charge for the second time.

"Don't be afraid, Turkic warriors! The Han people's bows and crossbows can't shoot you. It's dark now, and there's no way they're going to do anything to you. The Turkic general shouted.

After Ashinayun's translation, Li Junxian knew what this Turkic general was shouting. And Li Junxian showed a sneer in his mouth, and he immediately lit a firework, and then this firework exploded in the sky.

"Rocket battalion of the Firearms Regiment, you're ready to get to work!" Yang Wu, the head of the firearms regiment, shouted.

"Rocket battalion, prepare flares!"

"Flares ready!" "Launch!"

"Whoosh, whoosh......" There was a sound of grinding air from the rockets, and countless rockets with shiny tails rushed to the battlefield in front of the Turks.

"Why......" There were some crisp sounds, but they didn't sound like those exploding firearms, so the Turks didn't care.

"Ahh A Turkic covered his eyes. I sent out participation.

"Oh no, why is it so bright?" The Turkic general said angrily.

The general of the Turks suddenly noticed that there seemed to be huge stars in the sky, and the light emitted by these stars was very powerful and dazzling. The Turkic soldiers who were staring at the light seemed to have some injuries in their eyes.

Of course, it was not this that worried the Turkic generals the most, but it was these lights that completely illuminated the battlefield. Such a large light is almost no different from that of daytime, in this case, isn't the bow and crossbow of the Han people ready to attack their own cavalry at any time? However, whatever you are afraid of comes. The Han people's crossbows immediately began to attack.

"Soldiers, this is our secret weapon, flares, don't panic. Everyone will immediately use bows and crossbows to meet the Turks, so that we can completely destroy these Turks. The loud-voiced herald immediately conveyed Li Junxian's order. Let the soldiers attack the Turks with their bows and crossbows as quickly as possible. If you don't seize this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be wasted.

"General Li is mighty!" "General Li is mighty!" ……

The special guard soldiers all seized this opportunity to show their respect for Li Junxian. This flare is so powerful that it can illuminate the dark night as much as the day. This plan to immediately allow the Turks to sneak up on them failed, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to steal chickens and rice.

And Li Junxian looked at these situations and thought to himself: "Fortunately, I invented the flare in time." Otherwise, I'm afraid it's really miserable this time! ”

In fact, the production of flares is not difficult for Li Junxian. Depending on the flare formula, only 40 to 70 percent oxidizing accelerant is required, plus 30 to 50 percent combustible, and 2 to 10 percent adhesive, i.e. glue or resin.

As for the accelerant, Li Junxian can already use sodium nitrate to make it. The production process of sodium nitrate is not complicated, as long as you use miscanthus nitrate and lime to produce. Miscanthus is found in many saline-alkali lands, and it is not difficult to collect. And lime is even more available all over the country, and it is not unusual. Magnesium was generally used in flares for combustibles in later generations, but magnesium was not found in this era. But Li Junxian has an alternative, and that is aluminum. Originally, Li Junxian discovered the metal aluminum in Tiegao a few years ago, although the output of aluminum is not high, but it can be produced. Although aluminum cannot be used in the mass production of weapons, it can be used to make lighting agents. As for the adhesive, Li Junxian directly used fish glue to stir it, so that it became a flare.

Li Junxian used some wooden rockets to launch the flares into the sky, but those rockets did not have much gunpowder, but they could only be pushed, and the main purpose was not to explode. When they reach the sky, they light the flares, and the small parachutes on the flares are immediately opened, and the flares slowly fall. These things are not complicated, and they can be used with the knowledge of junior high school. So Li Junxian easily only made flares.

But this small flare is enough to change the course of the war. Originally, it was a difficult field battle for many people, but for Li Junxian, it was not a problem at all. Although it may also be possible for the enemy to attack their own people with the light of flares, but now Li Junxian and they need lighting even more, which has to be said to be a tragedy for those troops who are good at night fighting.

"Shoot the arrows!" The soldiers of the special guard, under the command of the commander, immediately released their arrows. (To be continued......)
