I don't know what Jing Wu Jun did with the fierce fire oil, when the flying lamp really exploded, it was full of power, and it could directly penetrate the iron armor of the Shenwu Heavenly Army, shattering the soldiers' ribs, and then spit out of their mouths...... It was a dark fragment of internal organs.

The only thing that seemed out of place in the chaos was a simple carriage in the rear army, although the violent explosion made several war horses pulling the cart frightened, and they wanted to run wildly, but for some reason, the eyes of those war horses revealed a faint golden light in the next moment, which quickly subsided, and even turned a deaf ear to everything in the outside world, as if it had become a few statues.

The curtain of the carriage lifted a corner, and the slender fingers like white jade spread softly......

Then, whenever the clay vase landed about a kilometer away from the top of the carriage, it would be strangely bounced open by an invisible barrier, and the flames were still bright and bright red, but they could only surround the carriage like brilliant fireworks.

"Go to the river! go to the river!" an officer in the Shenwu Heavenly Army roared in a panic at the sound of the explosion, and some of the soldiers who were also panicked seemed to grasp some life-saving straw, and responded to each other, rushing towards the raging wadi river in waves.

Water, water can extinguish fires, this is the eternal law of heaven and earth.

Li Mo was not accustomed to using his long knife to skim off a few clay bottles that rushed towards him, and when he saw them blooming with a strange fire on the ground, his brows furrowed, and he hurriedly shouted: "You can't go to the river!

He gritted his teeth, looked at the officer in front of him, who was already about to jump into the dry river, and suddenly raised the long knife in his hand and threw it over.

The long knife turned into a cold light, and in an instant, it flew to the back of the officer's heart.

The armor of the Shenwu Heavenly Army was tightly wrapped, but in order to lighten their own weight and make it easier to escape, many sergeants took off their armor while running, and the long knife carried the strong qi and blood of Li Yu's little grandmaster, and pierced the officer's chest at once.

Li Yu grabbed the reins and shouted again: "We have no way out! Only by rushing out of this sea of fire can we have any chance!"

The moment he shouted these words, Xiang Chu had already taken the lead, leaving him with only a back.

The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and the heavy cavalry sprinted forward like a pack of tigers chasing their prey. There were still sporadic clay vases falling along the way, and the sound of those explosions and the impact of the explosions made the war horses a little crazy, but because of the cavalry's superb equestrian skills and fast movement, they quickly broke away from the core explosion area, and the casualties were far lower than those of the Shenwu Heavenly Army.

Seeing the cavalry get out of trouble, of course, the Shenwu Heavenly Army refused to lag behind, and some soldiers even threw away their shields directly, and tens of thousands of people were in a hurry, but the scene of running away was only the word "embarrassed".

Looking at the sky, the lights in the sky are also mighty.

The Qingzhou ghost rider in the front row saw that the Tang army's formation was gradually collapsed, and the building said slightly: "This thing is so powerful...... However, that guy Xiaoqian is really powerful, and the wind direction can be calculated accurately. ”

Zhang Mingqi nodded, slightly admiring in his heart. When he was in Taixuetang, he especially looked down on the fat man with a broken mouth among the poor students, his appearance was mediocre, and his knowledge of military science was not outstanding compared to others, but all the way to the army, he could use nature to distinguish the direction of the march, predict the weather in the next few days by observing the sun, moon and stars, know how to use the terrain and other means to hide the whereabouts of the army, and even, now he can accurately calculate the direction of the wind......

However, he was still a little puzzled: "General, in that case, why don't we charge with all our strength and block the Tang army within the range of the flying lights before they rush out?"

Gao Changgong saw Xiang Chu rushing out of the area of the flying lantern with the Xuanjia heavy horse, and shook his head with a smile: "How can it be so simple? You only saw the continuous flying lanterns, which seemed to be enough to burn Tang Jun on the outside and tender on the inside...... But in fact, except for the clay vases hanging in the first batch of flying lamps, the back is just a bluff. ”

"Bluff?" Zhang Mingqi was slightly stunned and his eyes widened.

Gao Changgong shrugged his shoulders and explained: "We narrowly won the battle with the Tang Army, but the disparity in the strength of the two armies is still obvious, after that battle, we have been studying the method of dealing with the Shenwu Heavenly Army and the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry, these fire thunders are the results of these years of research, the pottery bottle is filled with fierce fire oil mixed with a variety of minerals to prepare something, once it bursts, the power is enough to penetrate the iron armor, and the flames produced are difficult to extinguish." ”

"It's just ......" he turned to sigh regretfully: "Such a good thing, not only is it difficult to prepare, but the actual combat effect is also limited, although there are many fire and thunder falling from the sky, at least thirty percent of them have not been able to explode, so if you want to rely on this kind of cleverness to win the Shenwu Heavenly Army and the Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry, it is tantamount to a fool's dream." ”

"Then what is the purpose of such a big effort?" Zhang Mingqi frowned and said: "Thousands of flying lanterns, light materials have to cost a lot of money...... Not to mention those fire thunders that are difficult to refine. ”

After some ups and downs, Zhang Mingqi is no longer the eldest young master of the rich Zhang family in the past, and after many long nights, when he slept on the hard and cold board bed and tossed and turned, he began to reflect on his former extravagance and arrogance.

At that time, a piece of gold and silver that he rewarded at random in the painting boat flower building could make ordinary people's homes last for several years, and those dregs that in his eyes were only worthy of feeding pigs, could become the only hope for the victims of the destruction of the embankment and flooded the fields.

Zhang Mingqi was in a trance, and Sun Qing, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly sneered: "What is money? If you can use money to buy a victory, even if it is a snap of ten thousand gold? But if you lose, can you use the money you save to buy paper money and throw it for yourself?"

Sun Qing has always spoken with thorns, coupled with a cold and arrogant atmosphere, which makes people feel bad at all.

The building had a fiery temper and argued: "How can the common people live if you use all the money to fight the war?"

"The front line has been lost, the land has been invaded by other countries, and the people still have no way to live, and then we can only be sinners in Jingwu. ”

Gao Chang sighed and said, "You don't have to argue about this kind of thing, the Shenwu Heavenly Army is the first heavy armored infantry in the world, and with Xiang Chu as the general, it is already a waste of strength for us to force them to this point...... Head-to-head, it is difficult for Qingzhou ghost riders to bargain, and if they want to win, they naturally have to use some partial methods. As for the expenses, that's the sick seedling in the palace, and I'm only responsible for bringing you all back in good condition, and it's almost the New Year...... It's enough to be able to go home safely and have a hot meal. ”

Originally, Gao Changgong's last sentence could arouse some people's homesickness, but those who heard his first half of the sentence clearly couldn't help but have a bitter smile in their hearts.

The general really dared to say that he dared to call Prime Minister Zhuge "sick seedling" in public...... If this reaches the ears of the lord of a small country, he will be punished for a great crime of disrespect if he is a relative of the emperor and a member of the family. However, Gao Changgong should be an exception.

Since ancient times, it is common to be incompatible, born in the Jingwu court, the relationship between the two is as close as one, plus Gao Changgong and Zhuge Wanling have both passed the age of standing, but they are not married, this is really no wonder that the people around will think about it.

Gao Changgong felt the eyes of several people beside him change, but he couldn't know what they were thinking, so he could only frown suspiciously, and asked in the direction of Zhang Mingqi, "What's the matter, you haven't figured it out yet?"

Zhang Mingqi was a little surprised that Gao Changgong would pay such attention to him, but he quickly adjusted his mind and said thoughtfully: "The ghost cavalry in Qingzhou is all light horses, and the sharpness is insufficient, and the Shenwu Heavenly Army is good at defending, if we really let them form a formation to resist the enemy, supplemented by the Xuanjia heavy cavalry frontal assault, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to win." The general asked Zhao Qian to release a flying lamp and let the fire and thunder explode among them first, so they naturally did not dare to continue to form a formation in the same place. ”

Gao Changgong nodded, looked at Zhang Mingqi with satisfaction, and said, "Some have grown, it seems that these days on the border have not been in vain." ”

Zhang Mingqi was happy in his heart, but when he looked at Gao Changgong's admiring gaze, he was inexplicably a little frightened, and suddenly lowered his head and whispered: "Thank you...... General Xie praised. ”

Gao Changgong knew that Zhang Mingqi always had a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't cross, so he could only smile helplessly, but he didn't feel anxious, young people, the future is long, and he will not be as fond of drilling horns as they are old people.

But then he cursed himself self-deprecatingly, thinking to himself when did he start to become so old-fashioned? You know, he is less than forty this year, and according to his strong qi and blood cultivation, it is normal for him to live to be one hundred and fifty years old after that.

He looked back at the slightly immature faces, and he still couldn't help but feel melancholy.

He really can't go back to those young years, those good things.
