Chapter 58: Sulphur and Saltpeter
As for teaching Luo Ning the cultivation method of these people, it is not that Li Chengming is lying to them, nor is it that Li Chengming patted his head and said it.
In fact, Li Chengming had also thought about this matter for a long time, whether to spread Chakra's cultivation method in this world.
Without his teachings, the people of this world would not be able to cultivate chakra, because just the simplest information about sensing cellular energy and spiritual energy is enough to completely insulate this world from chakra.
However, Li Chengming also has his own considerations, after all, his current identity is different, he is no longer alone, but a county king, and he may even become the Ninth Five-Year Supreme in the future, so naturally it is impossible to do everything by himself, and he also needs to establish his own unique army to maintain his rule.
Just like Li Shimin, if he ascended the throne, he would set up a hundred horses, the famous Jinyiwei, East and West Factories in the Ming Dynasty, etc., these are the unique institutions set up by the emperor in order to maintain his rule.
Even the current Li Yuan, in addition to the sixteen guards outside the palace, secretly has a unique organization of the Black Armor Army, but this time because Li Shimin's conspiracy and rebellion came too fast and too fierce, Li Yuan didn't even hear the slightest rumor before, and he also believed that Li Shimin would not rebel, and when he was playing in the lake in the palace, he was directly arrested by Wei Chi Gong, who was killed in the palace.
It is precisely because of this that the Black Armor Army, which is the sharp blade under Li Yuan, can only be helpless.
After all, the masters were all caught in their hands, and for Li Yuan's safety, they didn't dare to move.
Although Li Chengming will definitely not follow in Li Yuan's footsteps with his own future cultivation, people always need to take precautions.
Of course, this is just an idea for the time being, and even if he does teach these guard chakras, he will have reservations.
Moreover, these guards are already too old, even if they cultivate Chakra, they will not be very powerful, and it is impossible to threaten him at all.
And those guards, when they heard that Li Chengming actually intended to teach them the immortal law, they were all full of excitement, and at the same time, they were even more loyal to Li Chengming in their hearts.
"Your Highness, the room is ready, you can go and rest!" After a while, Xue Wanche arranged the room and walked over to hug his fists.
"Well, good!" Li Chengming nodded lightly, and then said, "However, this king still has a few things to tell you to do." ”
"Your Highness, please!" Xue Wanche clenched his fists and said respectfully.
"First, collect the soldiers in Wannian County as much as possible; secondly, to gather as much grain, grass and horses as possible in the county; Third, collect as much sulfur and saltpeter as possible from the county. Li Chengming said.
Datang already has saltpeter and sulfur, in fact, at this time, Datang saltpeter is also known as stone, and sulfur is also called sulfur, from the Warring States period, it is a kind of medicine.
Yes, you read that right, both sulfur and saltpeter were medicines at this time, and they were later added to the Dan furnace by Taoist alchemists.
"This ......" Hearing the three things Li Chengming commanded, Xue Wanche was stunned for a moment, he knew the first and second, but the third thing, he couldn't understand, and asked Li Chengming suspiciously, "Dare to ask Your Highness, I don't know what you ...... collecting sulfur and saltpeter."
"This king is naturally useful, you don't have to ask!" Li Chengming glanced at Xue Wanche lightly.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Seeing Li Chengming's glance, Xue Wanche's heart sank, and he hurriedly lowered his head and hugged his fist.
"By the way, also, get ready, before midnight tonight, we will leave Wannian County." Li Chengming said again.
"Ah?!!!h Xue Wanche was taken aback, and didn't understand why Li Chengming had just occupied Wannian County and was leaving again.
"At this time, it is too close to Chang'an, do you think that if Li Shimin leads tens of thousands of troops to come, with the strength in our hands, do you think you can stop it?" Li Chengming glanced at Xue Wanche and said.
Xue Wanche was stunned by the question, then shook his head, hugged his fists and said, "The last general understands!" ”
"However, Your Highness, where are we going to evacuate after we leave Wannian County? The southwest of Wannian County is Chang'an County, and the southeast is close to Lantian County, but if you go further south, you will have to enter the range of Nanshan again. Xue Wanche then asked.
"Tell me, then, where should we go?" Li Chengming did not answer Xue Wanche's words, but asked Xue Wanche.
Seeing that there was no anxious look on Li Chengming's face, Xue Wanche knew that maybe Li Chengming already had the answer in his heart, so asking himself was just testing himself, and he muttered for a while, "If His Highness thinks that Li Shimin's traitor may come with a large army, then the last general thinks that if we retreat into Nanshan first, with Nanshan as a barrier, even if Li Shimin comes with an army of 100,000, we can calmly evacuate!" ”
Li Chengming bowed slightly, feeling that what Xue Wanche said made some sense.
It's a pity that he didn't have the plan to enter Nanshan again to avoid Li Shimin, and said lightly, "What you say is reasonable, but blindly escaping is not the style of this king, this king wants to turn around and drive directly to Weinan." ”
"This ......" Hearing Li Chengming's plan, Xue Wanche was slightly surprised, and didn't understand why Li Chengming suddenly wanted to turn around and drive straight to the south, you must know that Weinan is in the east of Chang'an, and they are now in the south of Chang'an, and if Li Shimin really led an army of 100,000 to attack as Li Chengming said, they entered Weinan, where it was flat, there was no natural danger in Nanshan, and with their thousands of soldiers, they couldn't resist it at all.
Xue Wanche said his worries, but Li Chengming waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, this king has his own plans!" ”
"This ...... Yes, Your Highness, then you will go down and prepare at once! Seeing Li Chengming's confident look, and thinking about the magic that Li Chengming showed before, Xue Wanche finally decided to believe Li Chengming, hugged his fists, and then went down with a solemn face to prepare to go.
"Wait!" Seeing Xue Wanche turn around and want to leave, Li Chengming was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly shouted to stop him.
Xue Wanche hurriedly walked back, hugged his fists and said, "What else does Your Highness command?" ”
"Where's the room you arranged for the king? If you don't take this king, how will this king know where the room is? Li Chengming twitched out of the corner of his eyes.
"Uh......" Hearing Li Chengming's words, Xue Wanche couldn't help but blush, thinking that he had indeed gone to arrange Li Chengming's room just now, but when Li Chengming said this, he forgot about it, patted the back of his head, and hugged his fists, "Your Highness forgives your sins, and the last general will take Your Highness over immediately, Your Highness, please!" ”
Li Chengming bowed slightly, and then walked in with Xue Wanche towards the back hall......
