One Step to The End: 1311 Chengdu Chengdu
The month of May came quietly, and the weather gradually warmed up, but no one knew what Zhao Guanren was doing. King Ning and others waved the flag in Jiangnan to rebel. No sign of opening yet.
Only the Ministry of Housing was surprised to find that more than 10 million taels of silver were gone, which is more terrible than burning money...
But Zhao Guanren is still on the line at two o'clock every day, but his short hair has changed to medium and long hair. There are also a few more arsenals in the official building office. Hundreds of carts go in and out all day, but the arsenal in the mountains is a restricted area. No one knew what he was building.
"One chengdu is opened in nine days, and thousands of households and thousands of doors enter the picture. Fortunately, this cheng is not lost..."
Zhao Qingtian stood by the Jinma River, looking at the prosperous and huge Chengdu in the distance. Behind him were the cavalry troops who could not see the head. The Longyou Army had officially entered the Jiannan Road, but the Jiannan Road was too big. , covering the area of two later provinces.
"Master Zhao! Please give me a thorough understanding..."
Jiannan Jiedushi led a group of cronies, and asked solemnly: "You leave the old nest of the Tubos and don't attack, why did you send thousands of miles to quell the rebellion? Besides, I still have a battle in Jiannan. It's really puzzling!"
"Master Li! Please forgive Zhao for speaking out..."
Zhao Qingtian cupped his hands and said: "Jiannan has lost half of its territory, don't you know where you lost? The lack of soldiers and low morale are only second, the key is that there are a large number of demon soldiers in the Tibetan rebels, and they have already penetrated Jiannan Road, there are monsters hidden in your subordinates!"
"Ah? This is true..."
A group of officials changed their expressions in horror, but before the words could be said, a group of black armored men brought in more than a dozen corpses of monsters in carriages. , they are disguised as postmen and postmen, trying to ambush you on the boat!"
"It's time for you all the demon masters, please check carefully..."
Zhao Qingtian politely intervened to return the salute, and then said: "My lords! This is the emperor's intention to dispatch our army. The south is severely infiltrated by monsters. The power of the Magic Division is a drop in the bucket!"
"There is also a Demon Suppression Bureau in this mansion, why don't they know this official..."
Master Li hurriedly looked at the demon master, but the other party rolled his eyes and said, "Your city is about to become a monster den, we even handed you a few letters, but you still refused to See, they said that we are fooling the crowd, and you just wait to be replaced by monsters!"
"Nothing, I don't know about it at all..."
Master Li shouted in a hurry, and the demon masters turned their heads and left in disdain. Zhao Qingtian also patted Master Li's arm, said "I'm doing it for myself" and left, riding a horse and coming straight to By the ferry, a large number of civilian ships are ferrying the army.
"Dad! Big brother..."
An excited shout rang out, and a young silver-armored general rushed over and hugged Zhao Qingtian's eldest son abruptly. Zhao Qingtian also quickly stepped off his horse and said with a hearty smile: "Haha ~ four years I haven't seen you, my son is so old, how is the home?"
"Okay! The prince and minister have died for several rounds, but our family is unscathed..."
The teenager excitedly took out a few letters, handed them over and said with a smile: "Dad! This is a letter that my family asked me to send to you, and my mother also wrote one to you, but your son-in-law is also Prince Zhao, he What you want to say is about military aircraft, and you must let the child tell it to you!"
"I haven't seen my son-in-law before, but rumors are flying about him, what do you think of him..."
Zhao Qingtian took the letter and walked to the inn. The younger son happily pulled his elder brother and told a lot about Zhao Guanren, but his elder brother was surprised: "You are going to exaggerate him. Come on, could it be that he is a saint and has no flaws at all?"
"Of course there is! No one is perfect, he is cunning and scheming..."
The youngest son walks into the inn
The hall, said: "But he only treats the enemy like this, and he is good to the family. Grandfather can't fault him, and he praises my sister for being lucky, by the way! My brother-in-law asked me to bring a lot of goodies. Things, all military supplies!"
The younger son brought a box, opened it, took out two lighters, and also took out two boxes of candy, a few boxes of cans, and a glass lantern, and introduced it to the father and son as if to show off. Playing with a novel look.
"Don't underestimate these candies, these are life-saving candies, I've pulled a big boat for you..."
The younger son smiled and said, "My brother-in-law is so generous to you, two thousand maddening lanterns, one hundred thousand boxes of spontaneous fire, ten thousand first aid kits, and fifty lighters, all of which are pure gold. It is built with the logo of our Longyou Army engraved on it, and it will be sent to your confidants to use!”
"What is a dog? You mean carving..."
The eldest son picked up a pure gold kerosene lighter with the serial number of Zhao Jiajun and the Chinese character Zhao inscribed on it. He held it heavy in his hand, while his younger brother took out two cigars arrogantly and went to the father and son. Put one in each mouth and lit it with a lighter with a smile.
"I don't understand either, anyway, the government office is called that..."
The younger son suddenly took out a large grenade from the box, unscrewed the iron waterproof cover, and said with a smile: "Dad! Do you know what this is? Let me show it to you, the two of you. Cover your ears, don't be startled!"
"Isn't it just the subduing thunder, the demon subduing master has it, and it's a tasteless thing..."
The eldest son waved his hand disdainfully, but after the younger son pulled the lead, he threw it into the corner of the courtyard, and soon heard a loud "bang", and a large hole was blown out of the courtyard wall. The gravel flew everywhere, and the startled guards rushed in with their knives drawn.
"What kind of thunder are you, why are you so powerful..."
Zhao Qingtian ran out in disbelief, waved his hands to drive the guards out, and the youngest son followed, proudly saying, "This is a military thunder that is used to shake the sky, it is ten times more powerful than the demon-fighting thunder. Thousands of them were thrown into the formation, and they were all torn apart!"
"Father! A siege weapon..."
The eldest son got out of the hole to look inside and out. Zhao Qingtian also squatted beside the hole with a rare expression, and asked, "I heard that the gate tower of the imperial city was bombed, but what is the place where it is located? for?"
"No! It was gunpowder that blew up the imperial city, the medicine in the gun battle..."
The younger son waved his hand and said: "The power of gunpowder is too great, the cultists are only better than the quantity, we are explosives, you dig two holes in the city wall for the boy, only two bags of explosives the size of the basin, boy It will blow up the city gate hole for you!"
"Don't talk nonsense, marching and fighting is a big deal..."
Zhao Qingtian got up and looked at him solemnly, the youngest son scratched his head and said, "Brother-in-law said that the location is right, and one bag can blow up the city wall. I'm afraid that most of them will say two. If you don't believe me, let the artillery demonstrate it. , my brother-in-law sent you five hundred artillerymen, all of them are professional!"
"Only five hundred? Enough to eat..."
The eldest son came in angrily, but Zhao Qingtian pulled the younger son and left. The younger son hurriedly called a team of artillerymen from the boat. There was an abandoned old city wall not far away, although there were only five left. Meters are high, but they are made of bricks and stones.
"This official will give you half an hour to blow up this old city wall, and reward you..."
Zhao Qingtian stood straight in front of the city wall, all his entourage came curiously, but the artillery company commander said a little in astonishment: "Grand Marshal! It doesn't take that long, but you all have to let go later. , stand a hundred paces away!"
"A hundred steps away? Do you have a chance..."
The soldiers of the Longyou Army retreated with disdain, eating melon seeds and peeling peanuts one by one. They didn't take the artillery seriously at all, but they took out their shovels and ran to the base of the city wall. He digs, but after a few minutes he runs away.
"Boom!"
The artillerymen covered their ears
Hiding behind a tree, probably because they didn't want to lose face in front of the Longyou Army, they stuffed three explosive packs into their heads, only to hear a loud "bang", and the Longyou Army fell to the ground, Even Zhao Qingtian was shocked.
"Boom~"
A large amount of bricks and stones rose into the sky at once, stunned the military and civilians in the entire city of Chengdu, and the gravel fell like raindrops. It is not safe to stand a hundred paces away, and some people are still smashed and screamed. , but everyone present was stunned.
"No, no! Dad, did you see..."
The eldest son pushed his father dumbfounded, but Zhao Qingtian was already dumbfounded. The city wall was blasted with a large gap of more than ten meters, and even a large pit appeared on the ground. Can drive straight in.
"My God! No wonder only 500 people were dispatched, which can be worth thousands of troops..."
Zhao Qingtian got up ecstatically, and excitedly looked at the missing city wall. His personal soldiers also flocked to him, and they praised each and every one of them in amazement.
"My lord! These artillerymen are so precious..."
A lieutenant general was even more shocked: "It doesn't take a single stick of incense, and such a large city wall is gone. If you give me two teams of artillery like this, I can take down the Tubo with 20,000 people. Why don't we divide our troops, I will take the artillery back to fight Tubo!"
"Artillery! How many of those bombs do you have..."
Zhao Qingtian hurriedly turned around, and the artillery company commander came over and said in a low voice, "Sir! This is a secret, anyway, it's enough for you to bomb ten cities, and we brought ten warships. If we attack Linshui City, , you can blow up the city to surrender without getting off the ship!"
"Hurry up! Take this officer to the warship to take a good look..."
Zhao Qingtian walked to the river with great interest. The ten warships were converted from double-decker official ships. One ship was equipped with ten cast iron cannons. All of them were the simplest front-mounted guns in order to rush work, but the caliber was very rough. , also equipped with a hundred mortars.
"How far can this thing hit, can it hit five hundred steps..."
Zhao Qingtian patted the cannon curiously, and all his cronies followed, and the Datang technology tree was chopped down by them, which led to the practice of Xuanqi abroad, but no serious small cannon appeared. Pass.
"My lord! It can reach a distance of five miles. It's not a problem to go from a boat to the city. A single shot can kill an elephant and easily kill more than ten people..."
The words of the artilleryman stunned everyone again, and the lieutenant said quickly: "That's a bird, let's all go back and build iron cannons. Ten people push one door, and the number of people who come here will die!"
"Sir! This gun is more than 3,000 catties, and it will sink into the mud..."
The company commander cupped his hands and said: "This gun is only suitable for attacking and defending cities and warships, dealing with dense formations, and it is inconvenient to transport on land. It is an artifact, it can be carried by a single person, and it can be easily blasted for two miles!"
"My dear! You artillerymen are all good things, they must be expensive..."
The generals caressed the small cannon coveted, while the company commander smiled bitterly: "The cannon rings! Gold is ten thousand taels! Our ten warships plus artillery shells and artillery training costs have cost more than two million yuan. Two, just after blowing the wall, six hundred taels are gone!"
"So expensive?"
Everyone took a deep breath, but Zhao Qingtian said: "It's really expensive, but it's worth the money, go back to the city to get the medicine bag and blow it up, and the iron cavalry rushes in, it will save you death. How many people, Zhao Wang is a great talent, and it's still raining in time!"
"Your Excellency! Forward Camp is here to report..."
A general jumped up and said with a dignified expression: "The Tibetan rebels have descended to several cities, and they have reached the central area of Guizhou, but the local magician suggested that our army should be stationed, saying that there are... ... iron cannons, the factor has been placed above the threshold, no less than 60!"
"Shit! Why do they have guns too..."
