Li Changkong saw this but turned a deaf ear.
He just smiled lightly and said, "Just watch carefully."
Seeing what Li Changkong said, the civil and military officials had no choice but to put aside their thoughts for the time being and turn to look at Li Xiang, who had already begun preparations.
Jia Pingsheng even sighed.
Sometimes, he didn't even know whether he was the prime minister or Li Changkong was the prime minister.
You know, Emperor Zhaowu had hardly discussed anything with him these days.
On the contrary, Li Changkong was a participant in every major decision made by the court.
Although he is not a prime minister, he is better than a prime minister.
This is Li Changkong’s current position!
A moment later, under the watchful eyes of civil and military officials, Li Xiang took a deep breath and finally climbed onto the detonation platform!
Feeling the eyes all around him focused on him, Li Xiang gritted his teeth, lit the fuse in front of him with long incense, and then ran away!
Stab!
The flames began to sweep forward little by little along the lead wire.
Finally touched black powder!
boom!
There was a loud roar, and I don't know if it was an illusion, but the civil and military officials on the high platform felt that the earth was shaking!
The eyes that looked at the explosion fire were full of shock!
It has such great power!
This is something they really didn't expect!
It is truly an important weapon of the country!
It can be used as a weapon against Bei Yuan!
One after another, the scarlet-robed officials were breathing rapidly. They saw hope in the flames of the explosion!
Daqian’s hope of defeating Beiyuan!
There is nothing more glorious than this!
"General Li is truly a man of heaven!" Dongfang Ming, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, said.
Although this gunpowder is said to be made by Li Xiang, anyone knows that there is no trace of Li Changkong in it!
In the whole Daqian, he is the only one who has the ability to create such a thing.
"This thing can be an important weapon for our country to be passed down from generation to generation!" Zhong Yu also stroked his beard and laughed.
Everyone was laughing, with extremely happy expressions on their faces.
Only one person is restless!
Astonishingly, it is Princess Changping!
At this moment, there was shock and helplessness on her face, but there was no smile at all.
With such a powerful weapon, did Daqian still need help from the Western Jin Dynasty?
Even if they are still needed, their 100,000 elite soldiers are not a help in times of need, but at best they are the icing on the cake.
The rewards between the two are different.
Whether Daqian still needs them or not is another matter.
"I wonder why His Majesty the Emperor Daqian summoned me to come here today to see this thing?" Princess Changping sneered and said straight to the point.
When Liu Yu heard this, he stopped pretending. He stood up, looked down at the surroundings, and said in a loud voice, "I'm calling you here today to tell you!"
"I'm so grateful. Since ancient times, there have been many generous and tragic people!"
"Back then, Emperor Taizu Gao was from a humble background, but he only relied on eight thousand Jiangdong soldiers to conquer such a huge country!"
"Looking at all the countries in the world, you are also a hero among heroes!"
"Later, there was Emperor Xiaowu, who defended the territory and opened up borders, expelling Bei Yuan outside Shanhaiguan, and became famous all over the world!"
"Later generations praised his force and said: Ten thousand enemies!"
"It makes no sense that our ancestors are so powerful, so we, the descendants, are cowardly!"
"Dagan is still Dagan, and the people of Dagan are still the people of Dagan!"
"The ancestors can drive the Beiyuan barbarians out of Shanhaiguan, so can we!"
"Even without anyone's help!"
Liu Yu is powerful and powerful.
When the civil and military officials and the onlookers heard this, they were all shocked, and some even worshiped on the spot.
After the civil and military officials were stunned for a moment, they even shouted long live in unison.
Only Princess Changping's face was ashen and extremely ugly.
She finally understood that today's scene was specially performed for her!
Such an experience not only consolidated the majesty of the royal family and gathered the scattered people's hearts, but also gave them the power to dismount in the Western Jin Dynasty.
It really kills three birds with one stone!
If nothing unexpected happens... Princess Changping looked at Li Changkong and sighed deep in her heart: "It should be your handiwork!"
"According to my decree, Li Xiang of the Marquis of Wuling Mansion has made great achievements in making black powder. He is specially approved to go out with the army to help the northern Xinjiang!"
"After the battle, I will give you another reward!"
Li Xiang, who was under the high platform, was quite confused when he heard this.
I only know how to make black powder and I don’t know how to fight. Why go to Northern Xinjiang?
However, the civil and military officials had already sensed Liu Yu's deep meaning!
The emperor was dissatisfied with Li Xiang's lack of merit, so he sent him to northern Xinjiang to practice a little, get some military exploits, and then reward him generously when he came back!
Why did such a good thing happen to Wulinghou Mansion again?
Isn't it enough to have one Li Zhufeng, one Li Changkong, and one Li Long? Now there is another Li Xiang!
The Li family is really... rising to great heights!
I'm afraid that many aristocratic families will look up to him now, right?
He is truly an emperor and a courtier!
…
It has been three days since the black powder explosion in the western suburbs!
During this period, there was not much movement in the imperial court. They were just coordinating food, grass, troops and horses, and began to set off towards northern Xinjiang one after another.
But among the people, there is constant movement!
"People of the Western Jin Dynasty, go back to the Western Jin Dynasty!"
"Yes, we Dagan can drive the Beiyuan barbarians out of Shanhaiguan without you!"
"You and Bei Yuan are the same as each other, neither of you is good!"
"Get out of here!"
"Get out of here!"
"Get out of here!"
In the post house, hearing the shouting and cursing outside the door, Caiyun had veins popping out on his forehead, clenched his fists, and was shaking with anger.
who is she? Deputy Commander of the Detachment of Women!
The iron lady who followed Princess Changping to the battlefield, killed people and drank their blood!
When have you ever been treated like this?
He said angrily: "Your Highness, let's go!"
"We come to help out of good intentions and with sincerity."
"It's just that the price has not been negotiated!"
"But what are they doing? They just leave us alone, but they actually allow the people to speak ill of each other! Is this how they treat guests?"
"It's really disgusting!"
"In that case, let's go! There's no need to stick your warm face to someone's cold ass!"
Looking at the indignant Caiyun, Princess Changping lamented and said, "Things are not that simple."
"With that kind of black gunpowder in Daqian, it's unclear whether Beiyuan can be driven out of Shanhaiguan."
"But for Beiyuan, Daqian is definitely a hard nut to crack!"
"If we can't attack for a long time, we will most likely give up!"
"But Bei Yuan's ambition to go south will never die!"
"In that case, do you think Tuoba Tian Khan should deal with Da Chu, the emperor's kingdom with strong soldiers and horses, or me, the Western Jin Dynasty?"
As soon as these words came out, Caiyun suddenly broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly said: "Then what should we do?"
"There is only one way, and that is to cooperate with Da Gan and use their black powder to defeat Bei Yuan at once. It will hurt!"
"Only in this way will the three eastern kingdoms be free from worries in a short time!"
"How we can compete with Daqian and Nanchen depends on our ability!"
