Text Chapter 932 A scene that shocked the world

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The order was passed, and not long after, a team of troops led by Zhou Cang came forward from the rear.  (Baidu Search Literature Museum)

    The Chu army's formation opened up like a wave, opening a passage, allowing the group of men and horses to reach directly in front of the formation.

    Xu Shu's eyes widened and he looked up from a distance. Like most of the Chu army soldiers, Xu Shu was also shocked.

    In the field of vision, in addition to more than a hundred elite tiger guards and Yulin, those who followed Zhou Cang were also mixed with more than ten Taoist priests. Moreover, these Taoist priests were also carrying large wooden barrels, and it was unknown what was contained in them.

    "Is this your Majesty's plan to destroy the city?" Xu Shu was shocked and confused.

    The generals were also very surprised, but they didn't know why so many Taoist priests suddenly appeared in their own army. Could it be that the emperor planned to let these Taoist priests attack the city?

    "Your Majesty, these Taoist priests" Xu Shu turned his eyes to Yan Liang.

    Yan Liang smiled slightly and pointed his riding whip forward: "Yuan Zhi, look carefully. Don't miss this scene that shocked the world."

    Yan Liang's mysterious words made Xu Shu feel more suspicious. He had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart and look eagerly in the direction of the enemy city.

    Under the gaze of tens of millions of people, Zhou Cang personally led the mixed regiment, using the cover of a large shield to avoid the rain of arrows from the Jin army, and rushed to the foot of Hukou City.

    Zhou Cang did not lead his army to attack the city, but led the group of troops to the cave dug by the Chu army.

    "Quickly, fill all the barrels in." Zhou Cang shouted, waving his sword in his hand to block the arrows he shot.

    The Taoist priests did not allow the soldiers to touch them and personally lifted the large wooden barrels into the cave. Then, a Taoist priest lit a torch and bravely got into the cave.

    After a while, the Taoist priests climbed out of the cave.  He dropped the torch and shouted nervously: "Hurry, retreat quickly."

    Seeing this, Zhou Cang immediately led his troops to retreat, while waving the red letter flag.

    At the Central Military Department, Yan Liang, who was standing on horseback and looking from afar, clearly saw Zhou Cang Xinqi. His calm mood suddenly became agitated.

    "Send an order to all the troops trapped in the city. Retreat immediately." Yan Liang raised his whip and shouted.

    Bang!  clang!  clang!

    Jin Xiang was in a hurry, and the order to retreat spread throughout the country.

    The troops who were fighting hard heard the golden sound of retreat and did not dare to stay for a moment.  The rush is like an ebbing tide, retreating from Huguan City.

    Seeing the retreat of the Chu army, the Jin troops at the top of the city thought that their hard battle had forced the enemy back. They all breathed a sigh of relief, and each of them proudly cursed and shouted at the "defeated" Chu army, showing off their force.

    "I told you before. With me, Wang Ling, the pot is as stable as Mount Tai. Yan thief, you can't do anything to me after all. Today is indeed the time when I, Wang Ling, become famous all over the world, haha~~"

    Wang Ling put his hands on his hips, looking at the retreating Chu army from a distance, and laughed wildly with pride.

    Far away.  Xu Shu looked at his troops retreating like a tide, but his heart became more and more confused.  He racked his brains and couldn't figure out what kind of medicine his emperor was selling in the gourd.

    Yan Liang had a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and his Adam's apple moved slowly, as if he was counting the time.

    Finally, he opened his mouth slightly and spit out the word "bang".

    boom!

    There was a loud sound that shook the sky, as if the whole world was about to be shattered by the first thunder when chaos first broke out.

    Thousands of Chu troops trembled at the same time, subconsciously looking towards Huguan City behind them, in the direction where the sound came from.

    The Chu army of 70,000 to 80,000 men was instantly stunned and stunned.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Amid the firelight and dust mist, the indestructible city wall of Huguan collapsed several feet wide.

    Huguan City was defeated instantly!

    "How is this possible? What happened!" Xu Shu was so shocked that he could hardly breathe. He looked at Yan Liang in astonishment and wanted to seek Yan Liang's explanation.

    Yan Liang regained his composure and said calmly: "Don't panic, Yuan Zhi, I just used a few barrels of gunpowder to blow up Huguan City."

    Gunpowder!  ?

    Xu Shu was frightened and confused. This new and unheard term made him even more confused.

    Yes, that is indeed gunpowder.

    Gunpowder is one of the four great inventions of China. As a time traveler, how could Yan Liang not know this?

    This kind of gunpowder has been around since ancient times. It was originally used by Taoist priests who made alchemy.In the process of Dan, I kept groping for it.

    This means that Taoist priests can be said to be the most primitive "chemists".

    Yan Liang then asked Zhou Cang to summon Taoist priests from several states in the two rivers, gather them together, and prepare gunpowder according to the formula given to them by Yan Liang.

    In the original history, gunpowder was only produced on a large scale in the Song Dynasty. At this time, even basic raw materials are difficult to find.

    In order to prepare enough gunpowder to blow open the Huguan city wall, Yan Liang ordered the prefects of various counties to do their best to collect and purchase these raw materials.

    It can be said that Yan Liang barely managed to scrape together a few barrels of gunpowder raw materials in just a few months with the strength of almost half the country.

    Yan Liangyuan was also worried that his newly made gunpowder might not be effective and the bombardment of the city would end in failure.

    Now it seems that he is still very lucky, and he got his wish and opened a gap in Huguan City.

    On Xu Shu¡¯s side, Monk Zhang Er was still confused. He couldn¡¯t figure out what kind of divine object this ¡°gunpowder¡± was. It could actually ignite fire and explode, exerting such huge power.

    Yan Liang did not explain much. He raised his whip and said sternly: "Attack the whole army. Let me enter Huguan and kill all the enemy invaders!"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    The rumble of war drums sounded again, and the sound of attack horns resounded through the sky.

    Tens of thousands of soldiers woke up from the shock and rushed out shouting to kill. Full of fighting spirit, they rushed towards the collapsed Huguan City from all directions.

    Yan Liang looked at the tide of his soldiers and thought to himself that this gunpowder was so powerful. If he had known that he should have discovered it earlier, wouldn't he have been even more disadvantaged?

    "No, luckily I didn't discover it earlier, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous" Yan Liang quickly rejected the idea.

    Gunpowder is no better than city-breaking cannons and repeating crossbows. The manufacture of those complex weapons requires not only detailed drawings, but also the division of labor and cooperation of many craftsmen.  Make different parts and finally assemble them successfully.

    That place, even if the enemy captures individual craftsmen, there is no way they can imitate it.

    Gunpowder is different. There are only three basic manufacturing raw materials, and the production process is nothing more than a ratio. It is easy for the enemy to obtain manufacturing information, even if they do not know the specific ratio, as long as they know the raw materials.  Try it slowly and you will be able to match it in the end.

    Back then, when Yan Liang was still weak, the invention of gunpowder would be a temporary power, but it would definitely attract the attention of other powerful princes. If these enemies were given the method to make gunpowder, they could produce it on a large scale.  I'm just afraid that the threat to myself will be greater.

    Therefore, rushing to invent gunpowder when you are still weak is equivalent to a three-year-old child with a million dollars in hand, but it will do more harm than good.

    Now things are different, Yan Liang has swept across the world, and out of the thirteen states, there is only one Bingzhou left that has not yet been conquered.  Under such a strong force, even if the enemy obtains the method of making gunpowder, what can be done.

    "You can make gunpowder with the power of just one state, how can you make it better than I can with the power of more than a dozen states?"

    At this time, gunpowder was invented.  It is the right time to conquer the fortified city and dominate the world as soon as possible.

    In Yan Liang¡¯s thoughts and emotions, he could not count the soldiers of Chu.  They have already surged through the ditch and rushed towards the gap in Huguan City.

    And at this time.  The Jin army on the top of the city was still in a state of disorientation and confusion.

    Hundreds of Jin soldiers were blown up into the sky by the powerful impact of the explosion at that moment, and were blown to pieces.

    The surviving Jin soldiers were also frightened to death by the sudden and almost terrifying explosion.

    Wang Ling, who was originally proud, was shocked to the ground in an instant. All his pride and confidence were shaken out of the sky.

    Wang Ling pushed aside the dust on his head and climbed up unsteadily. When he saw the hole in the city wall, he was frightened.

    "How is it possible? How did the Chu thieves break through my city wall? The Chu thieves didn't do anything?" The frightened Wang Ling muttered to himself incoherently.

    On the left and right, the soldiers were screaming in shock, and all of them were on the verge of mental collapse.

    Just when he was in a state of despair, the war drums rumbled again, and the soldiers of Dachu, like countless tigers, pounced on him again.

    Looking at the waves of enemies, Wang Ling was frightened again and secretly complained. Once the gap in the city wall was opened, what else could he use to block the Chu army's attack.

    While Wang Ling was still thinking about strategies to defend against the enemy, the frightened Jin soldiers on the left and right began to collapse at the sight of the wind, abandoning their helmets and armor, and fled towards the inner city with their heads in their hands.

     Wang Ling was furious, drew his sword and shouted: "Whoever dares to retreat without permission will be killed without mercy. I will stop them all!"

    The hoarse roar was quickly drowned in the Chu army's thundering shouts of killing. The frightened Jin army, whose spirits had been shattered by the explosion at that moment, could not care less about Wang Ling's threat.  , just trying to escape without his life.

    "Stop, stop, you cowards, don't run away"

    Wang Ling was so furious that he beheaded several fleeing soldiers, but he still could not stop the defeat.

    While Wang Lingshang was screaming angrily, hundreds of Chu soldiers had already poured into Huguan City from the gap, swarming up the broken city walls on the left and right.

    Veteran general Zhang Ren, carrying a sword in hand, took the lead in attacking the city wall.

    "But I saw the big knife in Zhang Ren's hand, sweeping left and right like a wheel, like the autumn wind sweeping down fallen leaves, mercilessly twisting the enemy soldiers who bumped into them into pieces.

    After killing the rebel army, Zhang Ren glanced at Wang Ling, who was shouting and angry.

    "My opportunity to make a meritorious deed has finally arrived, haha¡ª¡ª" Zhang Ren was full of energy, laughing like thunder, tearing through the rebel army with his sword, and went towards Wang Ling to kill him.

    Wang Lingzheng was furious and swung his sword to stop the collapse, and suddenly felt a fierce murderous intention, like a mountain of tai, pressing down on him.

    Turning around, he saw a veteran of the Chu army charging towards him unstoppably. The big knife in his hand was like the claws of the god of death, wantonly seeking for souls and lives.

    Seeing such a powerful enemy general, Wang Ling's face was filled with fear.
