Chapter 809: Landmines
The person who remembered Chen Fei was very efficient, and in less than an hour, he felt the strange workshop in the western suburbs from the Taiji Palace, such a fast speed, isn't it... Speeding?
When Li Shimin came to the strange workshop, the soldiers guarding outside suddenly knelt on the ground, and thousands of soldiers greeted His Majesty in unison.
No one needed to report that Li Shimin was coming, so Chen Fei and Li Zhuo had to hurriedly put down what they were doing and ran out to meet Li Shimin.
This time, Li Shimin didn't talk nonsense in the Qi Workshop, and asked Li Zhuo to find a room to talk to Chen Fei alone.
Li Zhuo retreated with interest, but Chen Fei was like constipation, Alexander.
As soon as the future father-in-law came over, he had a serious face and wanted to talk to himself, which must be no good!
Sure enough, as soon as Li Shimin waited for Chen Fei to sit down, he opened his mouth and talked to him endlessly about the friction between the Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo, from beginning to end, including how the imperial court plotted.
Li Shimin didn't know that Chen Fei had already known about this through Li Zhi, and even Li Zhi's idea was thought of by him, so he tried to hold back his laughter and listened to Li Shimin's narration.
In the end, Li Shimin threw the question to Chen Fei: if he wants not to withdraw the army, but also to ensure the supply of food and grass for the army, the safety of the soldiers, and the consent of the ministers at the lowest cost, you can do it. Anyway, the idea must come out with one, if you don't marry your daughter, it's so domineering!
Chen Fei felt speechless for a while, such a difficult question to ask me... You really look up to me.
Chen Fei stammered, not knowing what to say, "This... Your Majesty, Your Majesty... This one... Minister..."
Li Shimin thought he had an idea, but he was embarrassed to say, "It's okay, just say if you have any ideas, I will grant it." β
Chen Fei........ Privilege your sister! I'm in a complete mess right now, and I don't have any idea at all, okay?
It can't be helped, now I have to bite the bullet. "Your Majesty, the matter of grain and grass is easy to handle, now I have a large number of sweet potato seedlings on hand, as long as I plant sweet potatoes in the north, there is absolutely no problem in supplying military supplies, this is not a burden, the only difficulty is... How do you make sure that our soldiers don't fight and conflict with each other, right? β
"Well, that's right, once the two sides are at war, this war will not stop easily. Some time ago, the people were too angry about the upcoming war in the north, and the treasury was not enough to support a large-scale war, so now try to avoid conflict. Li Shimin touched his beard and said.
"To avoid conflict... To be honest, it is indeed a bit difficult, and Goguryeo's attitude is so low now entirely because he does not want us to unite with Silla to deal with him, and it is only a matter of time before he is defeated.
But if the time drags on for a long time, the variables may come, if Goguryeo sees through our army will not easily engage them now, so as to make some small moves, small friction to force us to retreat, this... It's still possible, and it's not easy to guard against, after all, the initiative is in the other party's place, and we can only defend passively....... Defense... Defend ......" Chen Fei muttered, and a flash of light seemed to flash in his mind.
"Hey! Your Majesty, if there is a way for them not to dare to attack our army's camp, can it be regarded as a solution to the current problem? β
"Don't dare to let them attack?" Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and at the same time he wondered: "What are you going to do?" β
"This... What to do... Belch... I can't say this clearly, Your Majesty might as well come with me and show Your Majesty a good thing. β
"Something good again?" Li Shimin got up with a smile, his expression was indeed full of anticipation. "Zicheng, this strange phenology I sealed for you is really appropriate, get me some good things out in three days, hahaha!"
Chen Fei could only smile bitterly and lead the way in front.
After coming to the warehouse, Chen Fei went in alone, and after a while, he carefully hugged a small box in his hand and came out, it looked like he was not holding a box in his arms, but a large piece of good jade, and his hand was about to break as soon as he loosened his hand.
Chen Fei lightly carried the box to the open ground, and was very careful, slowly putting the box on the ground, which can be described as being cautious and cautious, cautious and cautious, making Li Shimin very curious about what he took out.
I saw Chen Fei put the box on the ground, carefully opened the box, and took a look inside... It was all dry straw and rags, which made Li Shimin feel strange and asked, "Zicheng, what's the matter with a box of straw and rags?" Is this what you call a good thing? β
Chen Fei said with a smile, "Your Majesty, don't worry, things are packed in strips of rags." As he spoke, he unwrapped the rags, revealing what he was wrapped inβa flat, vessel-like piece of porcelain.
"What is this?" Li Shimin pointed to something and said strangely.
"This, this is a very dangerous thing, Your Majesty will stand far away, and the minister will personally demonstrate it to Your Majesty later."
After Chen Fei took out the porcelain, Li Shimin found that there was still a thin thread dragging underneath, and he was curious to pull it, so frightened that Chen Fei immediately stopped it.
"Your Majesty, once this line is pulled, this porcelain in the minister's hand will explode, and the power is no less than a thunderbolt!"
"Huh? Is this a thunderbolt? Li Shimin hurriedly took a few steps back, the power of the thunderbolt fire, such a close distance, he was also a little stunned in his heart.
"No, no, although this thing has the power of thunderbolt fire, it is not thunderbolt fire, it is a new weapon that the minister pondered a few days ago, called 'landmine'."
"Landmines?" Li Shimin wondered.
"Yes! Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry, let the ministers show you how to use this thing. β
There were three mines in the box, and after Chen Fei took them out, he ordered someone to dig three small wooden stakes in the open space, and wrap the lead on the mines back and forth on the wooden stakes to make a stumbling rope style.
Then have people all exit the open space and look at it from a safe place behind a distant obstacle.
Then he ordered a horse to be picked up and dying of old age, and drove the horse to the clearing.
Although this scene is a bit cruel, it is better than testing on a living person, not to mention that this horse is also dying of old age, so it is better to let it be freed quickly.
However, the horse did not think so, and did not seem to want to be relieved sooner, and walked around the field a few times without going to the stake, and walked out of the field several times, and was finally driven back again. It's very anxious to watch.
Of course, in the end, the horse still touched the lead with a hoof, and almost at the moment when the lead was pulled out, the corresponding mine "boomed" and exploded, like a thunder on the ground, shaking the eardrums of the people present roared continuously, and there was a brief tinnitus.
Smoke billowed out, and those who didn't know thought something was happening, and the guards rushed anxiously to the front, and there was a mess near the clearing.
"I'm fine! Stand down! After sobering up a little, Li Shimin shouted at the chaotic guards and drank them back. Then he grabbed Chen Fei and sprayed him with saliva excitedly, "Boy! Say it again, what's that thing called? β
The cervical spine is wasted, and I have to go to the hospital tomorrow, hey...
