For people in the Tang Dynasty, landmines were a novelty.
Whether it's the weird shape or the legendary power, it amazed the emperor and his ministers.
At this moment, a landmine was held in Li Qinzai's hand. Yesterday, Li Qinzai knew that this thing would definitely cause a sensation, so he made a few more mines.
Li Zhi and the veteran generals were far apart, and the guards formed a human wall as if facing a formidable enemy, blocking Li Zhi and the others several feet away.
This was Li Qinzai's strong request. After all, the mine in his hand was a trigger mine. If he accidentally touched it, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the veteran generals would collectively go to heaven. The huge empire was inexplicably destroyed, and Goguryeo and Tubo next to them went crazy with joy. .
Being too far away, Li Zhi couldn't see clearly the appearance of the landmine in Li Qinzai's hand. He couldn't help but become a little anxious. He stood on tiptoe and shouted: "Jingchu, come closer, let me take a good look..."
Inexplicably, he has the temperament of looking at the oiran through the curtain when visiting a brothel. Li Zhi was obviously not as honest as he appeared when he was young.
Li Qinzai didn't dare to move. The explosion range of the mine was about two feet in radius. It would be dangerous any closer.
So Li Qinzai shook his head and walked forward with the mine in hand, while the Li family members cleared the way for him.
Li Zhi and the veterans also followed him outside the human wall. Li Zhi was a little impatient, but most of the veterans didn't take it seriously.
This group of old killers were used to seeing life and death, and they were quite disdainful of Li Qinzai and his subordinates acting as if they were facing a formidable enemy. It was just a small iron box, so what would happen if it exploded? Do you want to be so exaggerated?
Still following the same procedure as yesterday's experiment, Li Qinzai came to an uninhabited and wide area in Zhuangzi. After planting the mines, he breathed a sigh of relief, then stepped back and stood with Li Zhi inside the human wall.
Liu Asi led another sheep, and this time he was the one responsible for attracting the sheep to step on the thunder with green grass. Li Qinzai's status was noble and it was impossible for him to take risks again and again.
With everyone holding their breath, Yang'er walked slowly towards Liu Asi. The sheep's hooves happened to step on the location where the mine was buried. Then, there was a loud bang, the ground shook, the mountains shook, and gunpowder smoke filled the air.
Within a few feet's radius, the sheep died in pieces, with blood and internal organs raining down from the sky.
Li Zhi and the veteran generals suddenly changed their expressions, and the guards were so nervous that they drew their swords out of their sheaths and surrounded Li Zhi in the center with their shields.
After a long time, the smoke cleared, and Li Zhi's face was pale and his expression was obviously frightened.
Li Zhi had seen the world before. Li Qinzai had built big firecrackers before, and Li Zhi had also heard the sound. However, the sound of the mines made this time was so loud that it was definitely not comparable to the original firecrackers.
The expressions of the veterans became more solemn.
Li Zhi was shocked by the power of landmines, while the veterans valued the terrifying ability of landmines to conceal their enemies.
It is invisible, soundless, and as long as the enemy steps on it, he will enter the gate of hell.
Who in the world can avoid sniping the enemy in this way?
"How domineering!" Li Ji stroked his beard in shock and said: "If it is used on the battlefield, it only needs to be laid in advance, and the enemy will have no way to avoid it..."
As he spoke, Li Ji turned his head and couldn't help but glance at Li Qinzai.
From gunpowder to three-eyed blunderbuss to the landmines in front of you, they are all sharp weapons that can kill people. Is this grandson the reincarnation of Thunder God?
The monarchs and ministers stepped forward and stepped on the blood and internal organs on the ground. They saw that the pit where the mine exploded was about two feet in diameter. Gunpowder smoke was still emitting from the pit, and the surrounding land seemed to have been leveled.
Li Zhi took a breath again: "With such a small iron box, there is no human or animal life within a radius of two feet. It's amazing!"
Li Qinzai whispered: "Right now, landmines are just experimental products and are not perfect. If some sharp iron pieces are mixed into the mine gunpowder, the explosion may spread to a wider area, and all enemies within a radius of five feet will fall." mold……"
There was silence all around. After Li Qinzai finished speaking, he noticed something was wrong and turned around to see Li Zhi and the veterans staring at him with complicated eyes.
Li Qinzai said innocently: "Why are you all looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
After a long time, Li Zhi turned to Li Ji and sighed: "Your Majesty, your grandson is a natural killer. I should educate him more to prevent him from going astray, otherwise he will be the bane of our Tang Dynasty."
Li Qinzai: “…………”
Are you so polite?
Li Jida agreed, stroking his beard and nodding: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm keeping an eye on this little killer. If he dares to go astray, his legs will be broken."
Li Qinzai sighed sadly, don't today's monarchs and ministers speak human words? I am doing meritorious service for the Tang Dynasty, but you say that I am a killer...
Then I thought about the things I have invented in the past few years. Well, it seems that the honorific title of "Shacai" is not too much. It is somehow appropriate...
It doesn't matter, everyone present, including Li Zhi, killed a lot of people. Strictly speaking, "killing talents" is a compliment.
Among the veterans, Qibi Heli, who had not spoken for a long time, stood up and said in a deep voice: "If this thing is used in Goguryeo, it will have a magical effect in regulating the universe."
"Goguryeo is a mountainous area with narrow roads and difficult marches. Our army is pressing down on the territory. If we can promote a strategic encirclement and squeeze the enemy troops into the mountainous areas in the north, and then lay thousands of mines in the north in advance, and set up ambushes on the left and right, the enemy There is no hope of survival if the army is cut off."
Su Dingfang stood up and nodded: "Yes, if this thing is buried in advance where the enemy must pass, and our army is approaching step by step, it will be equivalent to forcing the enemy into a dead alley. There is no other way but to be beaten." No, as long as there are enough mines, even if there is no one defending, the enemy will definitely not be able to get out."
"Your Majesty, if there are enough landmines, there will be no suspense for the Tang Dynasty's eastern expedition against Goguryeo, and Goguryeo will surely perish!"
Li Zhi looked at Li Ji with joy.
Li Ji is his default coach of the Eastern Expedition, and his opinions are very important.
Li Ji stroked his beard and pondered for a long time, then said slowly: "It seems that the Pingdong strategy discussed by your Majesty and the old minister needs to be revised. The imperial court is still preparing food, grass and military equipment. This matter is not urgent. I will wait for the veteran minister to discuss with the Ministry of War and the generals before presenting it to your majesty. Ping Dongce.”
Li Zhi nodded happily: "Everything depends on Yinggong."
Li Ji smiled and said: "With mines, our Eastern Expedition of the Tang Dynasty will be like a lion fighting a rabbit, destroying the dry and decaying, and the victory of the Tang Dynasty will be determined."
As he said this, Li Ji turned to look at Li Qinzai and saw that Li Qinzai was in a daze. If he looked like this in the past, he would definitely be in trouble. But today, for some unknown reason, Li Ji felt that his grandson was so handsome even when he was in a daze.
He slapped Li Qinzai on the back of the head lovingly, causing Li Qinzai to stumble and wake up.
Li Ji said dotingly: "Go back to Chang'an if you have nothing to do. Go back to your house to see your parents, and plant flowers with me... Well, I made a mistake. There is no need to plant flowers. You can just bask in the sun with me."
Li Qinzai grinned: "My grandson likes to plant flowers..."
"Forget it, you'd better not come back. Ganjing Village is quite good, with beautiful mountains and clear waters. You can cause trouble as you like."
Li Zhi and the veterans smacked their lips together, and the heartwarming scene of grandparents and grandchildren talking about each other's love, but after two sentences of dialogue, the whole scene collapsed?
