Chapter 493 is ambushed
As a storage place for finished gunpowder products, the warehouse is separated from the production area, and now the gunpowder workshop has just completed the relocation and has not yet entered the production state, and the gunpowder in the warehouse is all transported from the workshop in Tianshui.
Since the previous battle of Chang'an had emptied all the inventory of the Tianshui Workshop, the amount of gunpowder stored in the warehouse at this time was not too much, and it was only the last batch of products produced by the Gunpowder Workshop before it was relocated.
Despite this, the gunpowder stored in the warehouse was enough to turn the Chezhang ditch upside down. The action of the Wei Military Division is to try to completely destroy the gunpowder workshop of the Shu army, even if he cannot obtain the formula and process of gunpowder for the time being, at least he will destroy the production capacity of the Shu army, so that the Wei army and the Shu army can fight in the next step, so that the two sides can stand on the same starting line.
The power of gunpowder is too amazing, even the city wall of Chang'an can be razed to the ground, if the Shu army has been exclusively enjoying this weapon, then isn't any city wall enough to block the offensive of the Shu army, such a high-power weapon, so that the high-level of the Wei State is restless, destroying the gunpowder production facilities of the Shu army and imitating the production of gunpowder are the goals that the Wei State urgently needs to achieve now.
With the Red Eagle leading the way, Jinpeng and his entourage were also familiar with the road, and soon arrived at the gunpowder warehouse.
Jinpeng deliberately brought a team of elites, you must know that to engage in such an operation as a sneak attack, a smaller target is more conducive to action, although there are many sentry posts inside the workshop, they still shuttle in the meantime, and they are at ease.
Compared with the production process and the artisan accommodation area, the precautionary specifications on the warehouse side are obviously lower, but no matter how low it is, dozens of people will be arranged to take turns on duty, five steps to Meigang, ten steps and one sentry, day and night. Take precautions.
Red Eagle said to Jin Peng in a low voice: "There is a gunpowder warehouse in front, and you must kill the guards at the door of the warehouse before you can enter it." ”
Jin Peng nodded, this way was led by the Red Eagle, and it was indeed very smooth, basically without alarming the Shu army. But when you get to the door of the warehouse, it is impossible to bypass, and you must use strong means to open the door of the warehouse. If it is attacked, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Shu army, and soon a large group of men and horses will come to the rescue, so there is not enough time left for the Wei army special team, and the Wei army special team must kill the guards in the shortest possible time and enter the warehouse.
Gunpowder is flammable. As long as the Wei soldiers enter the warehouse, everything is a matter of course, just put a fire, you can easily destroy all the gunpowder in the warehouse, not only that, as long as the gunpowder can be detonated, the huge shock wave generated by the gunpowder can completely destroy the entire Chezhang Valley.
Jin Peng divided his men into two groups, one group to guard the perimeter. The other group is ready to enter the warehouse.
"Do it!" Jin Peng gave a short and cold order, and the man in black immediately launched a surprise attack on the guards of the warehouse.
The man in black moves as swift as the wind. The target was clear, and the guards reacted visibly slower by half a beat, and by the time they screamed and whistled for an attack, several of the guards had already fallen to the ground.
The guards of the warehouse were just ordinary soldiers. How can they be the opponents of these well-trained Wei agents, but in a few breaths, the gate of the warehouse has been breached by the Wei secret team, and the remnants of the Shu army's guards are powerless to resist and retreat.
Jinpeng is clear. It is not too difficult to annihilate all these warehouse guards, but there is no point, these guards have already sounded a warning whistle after being attacked, and it is speculated that a large number of people of the Shu army may arrive in a quarter of a moment at the earliest, leaving the Wei army with a very short time, and they must complete all the established plans in this moment.
Therefore, Jin Peng did not care about the Shu army guards who had fled, and led the crowd to rush into the warehouse as soon as possible.
In order to ensure ventilation and drying, the foundation of the gunpowder warehouse is higher than that of ordinary buildings, and the feet are also high, and after entering the warehouse from a long slope, you can see that the warehouse is both deep and wide, and now there are not many finished products stacked in the warehouse, which seems to be more empty and lonely.
Of course, Jin Peng didn't have much to think about whether the warehouse was built to meet the size and whether the layout was reasonable, and he was more concerned about how much gunpowder was stored in the warehouse. Seeing the few wooden boxes placed in the corner of the wall, Jin Peng was faintly disappointed, it seemed that just these gunpowders were not enough to blow up the entire Chezhanggou.
But no matter how much, it must be cleaned up for him, at least this operation is successful.
The man in black quickly pounced on the wooden boxes, which were nailed to death with large iron nails, and it was not easy for the men in black to take out their swords and try to pry open the wooden boxes, and it took them a lot of effort to finally pry open the first wooden box.
After prying it open, the men in black were collectively stunned, and there was nothing inside.
"Captain, the box is empty." The man in black immediately reported to Jin Pengyu in the back.
Jin Peng couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward, inside the wooden box, it was really empty, there was nothing.
"Tear it down again!" Jin Peng was very unwilling, in his subconscious, maybe this happened to be an empty box, not necessarily, in addition to this wooden box, there were at least dozens of such wooden boxes stacked on the scene, maybe the other wooden boxes were not empty, they were put inside and outside.
But to Jin Peng's disappointment, the man in black opened the wooden boxes one after another, and all of them were empty, let alone gunpowder, and he didn't even see a bit of gunpowder slag.
Jin Peng's face turned pale, called the red eagle, and shouted, "What's the matter? ”
Red Eagle opened his mouth and stammered, the gunpowder stored in the warehouse was completely seen by Red Eagle with his own eyes, how could it be that after a few days, the box was already empty, could it be that the gunpowder had been transported to the barracks? That's not bad! If you are supplying gunpowder to the army, you must also carry the wooden box as a package, and it is impossible to just take away the gunpowder.
"How could it be that the subordinates saw the gunpowder in the warehouse with their own eyes?" The Red Eagle Period Ai Ai is authentic.
After all, Jin Peng is an old qualified agent, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he suddenly understood.
"Not good! Ambush! Evacuate! Jin Peng's expression changed drastically, and he ordered eagerly.
The men in black immediately halted their movements and began to retreat backwards. But at this moment, shouts of killing suddenly came from all directions, and countless ambushes poured out. (To be continued.) )
