Chapter 1122: Eight Hundred Miles Urgent

As Su Dingfang returned to Yumen Pass with the wounded soldiers of the firearms supervisor, another 800-li expedited departure from Yumen Pass to report to the court on the battle of the Tubo ambush and firearms superintendent, which was only two days away from the previous 800-li expeditious.

"Two 800-mile expedited in two days, and they are all about the firearms prison, and the sensation caused in Chang'an City must be no less than the two big explosions in the firearms prison." Su Dingfang settled the wounded soldiers and couldn't help but sigh.

But this is not over, the more exciting is still to come, Mo Jiazi actually pursued the remnants of the Tubo army in the direction of the eight hundred miles of Hanhai, whether it was successful or not, it must be the third big explosion.

Under the Yumen Pass, the officials of the Ministry of Industry looked at the soldiers of the Yumen Pass and brought back a large number of wounded soldiers, and were immediately surprised when they inquired carefully, but they did not expect that the first batch of triumphant firearms supervisors were ambushed by the Tubo cavalry, and what shocked him even more was that the firearms supervisors actually won.

"My lord, there are a lot of wounded soldiers in the firearms prison now, and I'm afraid I won't be able to leave in a short time, so I don't have to rush the construction period too much." A craftsman said cautiously.

"Fool, this time we're not only going to finish it, we're going to speed it up." A hint of anxiety appeared on the face of the Ministry of Industry official.

"Why is that?" The craftsman was puzzled on the side.

"Why?" The official of the Ministry of Industry said with a wry smile: "There is such a big thing between the firearms supervisor and the Mo family, the court will definitely be angry, if the Ministry of Industry does not know each other again, and at this time it has offended the moldy head, then wouldn't it be looking for death?" ”

When the craftsman heard this, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, but he saw it with his own eyes, two eight hundred miles were sent out one after another, His Majesty must be angry, I am afraid that at this time, no one will be able to fall into the favor.

Immediately, with the urging of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, the entire brick road project was immediately stepped up to complete the project in the shortest possible time.

At the same time, one before and one after two 800 miles expedited is rapidly heading towards Chang'an City, although only two days apart, but under the joint action of the brick road and the post station, there is a chemical reaction, in the Yumen Pass and Lanzhou section, it is enough to do 800 miles a day, two 800 miles expedited, 1,500 miles wrong.

"Lanzhou Station, eight hundred miles expedited!" The second 800-mile hurried post guard came to the Lanzhou post station and shouted.

Lanzhou Post Station was taken aback, in just two days, there were two 800-mile expeditries, and something big must have happened in the Western Regions.

The head of the post station hurriedly greeted him, carefully checked it, and saw that Su Dingfang's mark was correct, and immediately exchanged it for a new horse for the post officer, if it was an ordinary letter, most of them were handed over by people and horses, but most of the important letters such as the eight-hundred-mile rush were changed horses without changing people, after all, many things were not clear at all, and a person who was familiar with the situation was needed to describe the story in detail.

"Finally after Lanzhou, Chang'an City is not far away!" The second 800-mile expedited post man rode on the wide brick road outside Lanzhou City, and couldn't help but sigh.

If it was before, if anyone said this, it would definitely be artificially a madman, but at this moment what the post man said is not unreasonable, once Lanzhou, whether it is the size of the post station or the conditions of the brick road are much better, and you can travel day and night, full speed forward, a thousand miles a day can also be reached, this speed some time ago the messenger has created a record, caused a lot of sensation in the post station.

"I have already passed Lanzhou in two days after the departure next night, and the previous batch of 800 miles of expedited should have arrived in Chang'an City!" The postman said in his heart.

His guess was right, the first batch of 800 miles of expedited day and night had indeed arrived in Chang'an City, and the arrival time happened to be late at night.

In the Lizheng Palace, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were resting, when suddenly a sharp knock on the door sounded.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Outside the hall, Pound called anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Gonggong Pang knocked on the door late at night, there must be something urgent." Empress Changsun was awakened and called Li Shimin, who was reluctant, up.

"This old minion, if there is no valid reason, I will never spare him!" Li Shimin said indignantly.

Under the service of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin put on his clothes, walked out of the palace and frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

"Your Majesty, there is an eight-hundred-mile rush from Yumen Pass!" Pound hurriedly handed over the eight-hundred-mile urgent letter in his hand.

"Yumen Pass, eight hundred miles expedited." Li Shimin was suddenly surprised, Yumen Pass is an important border pass town, according to the past amazing, whenever the border pass comes 800 miles urgently, it must have encountered a military war, but now the Tang Dynasty 100,000 troops have just defeated Gaochang, Li Shimin does not think that anyone dares to invade Yumen Pass.

With doubts, Li Shimin opened the 800-mile urgency, and when he saw the secret letter inside, he immediately shouted angrily: "Tubo is so courageous!" ”

"What's wrong?" Empress Eldest Sun hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Li Shimin's face turned blue and said: "Five thousand Tubo cavalry ambushed the firearms supervisor outside the Yumen Pass!" ”

"Ambush firearms supervisor, what is the result?." Empress Changsun was suddenly shocked, you must know that the firearms supervisor is in charge of the most secret weapon of the Tang Dynasty, gunpowder, and it is a blockbuster in the battle of Gaochang, and the firearms supervisor is their son-in-law Moton.

Li Shimin shook his head and said: "I don't know the news now, but I have a calculating or unintentional, plus the number of the Tubo cavalry is five times that of the firearms superintendent." ……………………。 ”

Li Shimin didn't say it, but Empress Changsun already understood that I am afraid that this time the Mo family and the firearms supervisor will be more auspicious.

"Then Merton ............." Empress Changsun said in a trembling voice, once Morton has an accident, what will Princess Changle do?

Empress Changsun was weak, and Li Shimin hurriedly comforted: "The firearms supervisor has the strongest attack gunpowder, and Merton spares no effort to increase the armament of the firearms supervisor, plus this kid has always been clever, even if the enemy is not as good as the five thousand Tubo army, it should not be a big problem to save his life." ”

Empress Changsun is concerned about her daughter and worries about Merton, but Li Shimin doesn't want anything to happen to the Mo family more than anyone else, you must know that in addition to being his son-in-law, Morton also holds the secret recipe of gunpowder, and is the key figure in the new generation of hundreds of schools of thought.

Once there is an accident in the Mo family, whether Merton is captured or killed in battle, it will be an unbearable loss for Datang.

"By the way, this will be kept secret in advance, don't tell Changle yet, Su Dingfang has already gone to rescue Merton, and wait for the next news to make plans." Li Shimin took a deep breath and said.

"The concubine understands!" Empress Changsun nodded, now that Princess Changle is pregnant, if she suddenly hears the bad news of Merton, if she has a fetal gas, then I am afraid that she will not regret it.

After appeasing the eldest grandson, Li Shimin walked out of the Lizheng Palace, and suddenly his face changed: "Gather the ministers, this matter must be investigated." ”

Five thousand Tibetan cavalry quietly lurked outside the Yumen Pass, and accurately ambushed the most important firearms supervisor of the Tang Dynasty, which must have been foggy.

"Yes!" Pound replied.

Soon, a group of palace guards rode around to give orders, and the mansions of the hundred officials were lit up again.
