Chapter 780 - You Can't Lose a

"What the hell is this, does anyone know?"

When it was closed, the sudden sharp face felt like water, and it jumped like thunder. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the tent, a group of Turkic generals were also depressed, as if they had seen a ghost, and they also wanted to know what it was. It's a good fight, and all of a sudden, these people can't figure it out now.

"Is it thunder?" A Murwei leader said cautiously.

There was a sudden silence in the tent.

Tuli looked at that guy with the same expression as a fool, how could there be such a stupid person in the world.

He didn't come to scold the guy, and someone immediately stood up below.

"How could the Tang people master the Heavenly Thunder."

Tuli nodded, there was finally someone who wasn't so stupid.

Then the man continued, "I don't understand how they managed to master this terrible power." ”

Tuli's face turned blue all of a sudden, he underestimated the stupidity of these guys. Although it is said that the grassland people are extremely in awe of thunder and lightning, they can also know by using their brains that it is impossible for the Tang Army to master any thunder power. It is even more unlikely that the gods helped them and gave them the power of the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, this must be just a new weapon in the hands of the Tang Army.

Just like fireballs, poisonous smoke, crossbow arrows, and stone bullets, they are very powerful, and they are all just human power.

However, this new weapon is really powerful, and it interrupts the attack that was completely dominant in one fell swoop. When the thunderous explosions rose and fell with each other, even Tuli himself was scared.

"Khan, we have a thousand dead brothers."

"Thousands?"

There was another exclamation in the tent.

The officer who reported hurriedly said, "Most of the dead in today's battle were injured by the Tang army's bows and crossbows, and then the enemy's strange thunder was very loud, but the damage was not large, and there were not many who were directly killed, but because of the thunder, there were many frightened war horses, and many people were knocked down and trampled by the frightened horses・・・・・・・

"Alright, no need to say it." Tuli interrupted him with a cold snort.

The people in the tent all looked at Tuli, not knowing how to continue this matter.

"Take a break and resume tomorrow. Let's all stand down. ”

"Shisa keep."

Tuli stopped Shi Jian, who was about to turn away.

After waiting for no one else in the account, he asked Shi Jian to sit down.

"Shi Sabao is also well-informed in the Central Plains, can you know what the thunderous new weapon used by the Tang Army today is?"

Shi Jian shook his head.

Tuli was a little disappointed, "Even Shi Sabao doesn't know?" ”

"I've been in the Plains for decades, but I've never heard of such weapons in the Plains. However, what I have seen today, and I privately speculate, is probably a fire-related ordnance. In the past, I heard that there were Taoist alchemists, and there were explosions and other situations, but I didn't hear of such a big movement, but it is estimated that this is the case, and it has been improved. ”

"Is that so?"

"Actually, the Khan doesn't have to worry, as far as I can see today, although this thing is as loud as thunder and will emit sparks, it is just loud, and the real lethality is average, and it may not be as good as stone bullets and crossbow guns."

"It's impossible, today the Tang people used only a few hundred of these things to directly disintegrate our offensive that was originally attacking the city, how can it be said that it is ordinary. You don't know that all the brave Turkic warriors have been terrified. Even those chiefs are there talking nonsense about the heavens taking care of the Tang people. It's not a small thing, it's a big, amazingly big thing. ”

"Is there anything you can do about it, or I don't know how to fight it any more. As soon as the city was attacked, the Tang people threw this thing down like a stone on the gate, and my soldiers couldn't resist it at all, this thing was not very lethal directly, but it had a great impact on the hearts of the sons. ”

Shi Jian knew very well why this weapon was so powerful, he had heard Li Chao talk about such a thing as gunpowder, but he had never seen it. But since it was something made by Li Chao himself, no matter how powerful it was, it was not too much.

But he didn't want to scare Tuli all of a sudden.

"Khan, nothing is perfect, there will definitely be flaws and weaknesses. I think this thing is so loud that the horses are frightened when they hear it, and the soldiers are terrified when they hear it, but this thing must have weaknesses as well. ”

"What is the weakness?"

"I think it's the quantity."

"Volume?"

"Yes, although I don't know how this thing is made, I have heard that there are Taoist alchemy people who have also made almost explosive effects, so I estimate that its raw materials must be made of alchemy and tribute, and alchemy is not easy, its materials are scarce, and expensive. The Tang army used this material to make ordnance, and no matter how good the effect was, the output would not be high. Today they threw hundreds of them at once, and it is estimated that most of the stock has been used, and they may even have been used up, so didn't they throw them away again? ”

Thinking about it, this is indeed the truth. But having said that, he was still a little frightened when he thought of the sound of that thing coming and going today.

Seeing that he was hesitating, Shi Jian stirred on the side.

"Khan, there is not much food and grass in the army. We were frustrated under the city of Mayi, and we went to Lou Fu to shut down, and now we can't turn around and leave when we encounter a setback. If we retreat from here now, where will we go? This floor is guarded by the princess of the Tang Dynasty, a girl. In these two attacks, Khan also discovered that the guards on this pass were very weak, and their counterattacks were also very weak, if it weren't for today's explosive thing, we would definitely have entered the city. ”

"If you don't fight such a building, it will be even more difficult to fight if you have a ruthless person like Li Jing in Mayi. We don't have much food and grass, so we can't wait for the Great Khan to go south. I estimate that the Great Khan will not be able to come for a while, and we want to wait for the Great Khan to bring food and grass to help, but I am afraid that we will not be able to wait. Besides, the Khan had just been crowned as the second Turkic Khan, and at this time, the Khan, as the vanguard of the southern expedition, was defeated in Yunzhou first, losing 5,000 soldiers and horses, and then being frustrated under the city of Mayi, losing more than 1,000 soldiers and horses. If you are defeated and retreated under this building, you will still be defeated by a princess of the Tang Dynasty, but I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Khan to convince the people in the grassland in the future. ”

This statement is reasonable, and Tuli also feels very reasonable.

As soon as he came, he suffered setbacks one after another, and if he retreated, it would be too embarrassing, and there would be nowhere to retreat, after all, he only had a few days of food and grass left. Moreover, now that he is the protector of the grassland, many people are not convinced by him, the second khan.

If you lose at the hands of a woman like this, you will really be laughed at.

"But this thing is really powerful."

"Great Khan, the Central Plains has a good saying, once you will succeed, your bones will wither, how can there be immortals in war. Besides, there are more than 90,000 people under the command of the Great Khan now, and there are not many real descendants, many of them are miscellaneous tribes such as Murowei Khitan, and they themselves do not necessarily have much respect for the Great Khan. This time, we might as well use these people to take the lead, take their lives, and use their corpses to pile up this building. As long as you can take the Lou Fu Pass, what does it matter if you kill people from other tribes, even if you die 350,000 Great Khans, there is no loss. As long as you take down the stairs and trouble, then all the troubles will be solved, the problem of food and grass will be solved, and the problem of prestige will be solved, so what is the khan still hesitating about? ”

"Can you attack it?"

"Why can't you attack, didn't today's attack go very smoothly at the beginning, and it almost went up."

"yes, it's just a little bit, the Tang Army has those things that will explode."

"Don't worry about that, let's attack it, that thing is more scary, the first time everyone doesn't know what it is, of course it's scary, but as long as we solve it with the soldiers, then the second time won't be so scared. At that time, with our 90,000 people, will we not be able to take the gate guarded by a girl? ”

"!" Tuli swung his fist viciously, and if he didn't do it at this time, he had no second way to go.
