Chapter 175 The Successful Cloud Piercing Arrow

Li Shimin walked to the bookshelf and was fascinated by the green light of the sun shining through the green glass on the books.

Gaochang was the main route of the ancient Silk Road. Merchants from the Tang Dynasty wanted to go to the Western Regions, and they had to pay a lot of customs duties in Gaochang. Therefore, although Gaochang is a small country, it is very rich and strong, and it is a strong bone.

But no matter how tough you are, you will not be an opponent of gunpowder weapons!

Imagining the scene of prefecture-level thunder exploding on the land of Gaochang, Li Shimin showed a cruel smile.

Earth-level thunder, a normal person would have to exert all his strength to move it, so the Dragon Tooth Army and the Dragon Scale Army are not suitable for assembly.

The Dragon Tooth Army is particular about coming and going like the wind, and Leng Feng even specially added field survival training, just for the Dragon Tooth Army to throw away even food and grass to increase their speed when necessary.In a normal march, the army and horses are not moved, and the food and grass go first. Food and grass are the lifeblood of the army, so "burning food and grass" is a common tactic during war.

After undergoing survival training in the wild, food and grass are not so important to the Dragon Tooth Army.

However, the prefecture-level thunder can't be played by manpower. It can only be used with the catapult. And the big guy like the catapult is rarely equipped even by an army of 200, not to mention the [-] people of the Dragon Tooth Army. !
"Businessmen are also my subjects, and my subjects can only pay taxes to me!"

Li Shimin's hand touched the bookshelf unconsciously, and the wooden boards of the bookshelf made a creaking sound.

A warm hand grabbed Li Shimin's hand, and Li Shimin's hand relaxed instantly. He didn't need to turn his head to know who was behind him. After many years of husband and wife, he and the queen were about to merge into one body.

Without turning around, Li Shimin let the queen hug his waist, and said softly, "Miraculous doctor Sun wants you to walk in the palace for two hours a day to exercise, is that enough for you today?"

The queen put her head on Li Shimin's shoulder and said, "I've been walking since this morning, not to mention, I don't have any more headaches these days. Eh? What are you here? Why are you so annoying?"

Li Shimin stretched out his hand, took out a pistol from his waist, and said: "This is the hidden weapon that Leng Feng promised to give me for protection. I tried it that day, and the power is astonishing, but the sound is a bit loud, and it shakes my hands."

The queen smiled and said: "You should keep the good things that Duke Xi gave you, why are you putting them on your waist?"

Li Shimin said: "When he gave it to me, he told me how to put it away. I was used to drawing the knife before, so I put it there."

Li Shimin unfolded the robe of the dragon robe, revealing the holster sewn on his waist, and put the pistol back after checking the safety.Leng Feng said that if the insurance is turned on, it is easy to go off and shoot himself. Li Shimin, who has tried the power of a pistol, does not think that his "body of gold" can resist the shooting of a pistol.

The yellow gate outside the study informed Hejian County King Li Xiaogong to ask for an audience, the queen hurriedly retreated to the back, Li Xiaogong is Li Shimin's cousin, there must be a serious business to formally ask for an audience now.If a woman does not interfere in politics, she must retreat.

The study door opened, and Li Xiaogong walked in and knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, the base number of firearms loaded by the Dragon Scale Army has reached eight, and the autumn wind has risen, it's time to send troops."

Li Shimin nodded: "Zhang Zhongqing's Jinglei Division has indeed increased the speed of making Jinglei Arrows and Jinglei. How many prefecture-level Jinglei are you going to bring?"

Li Xiaogong said: "Three is enough, three earth-level thunders are enough to change the situation of a decisive battle, not to mention that the Dragon Scale Army still has thunder arrows and human-level thunders."

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "Take one more. West Turkic and Gaochang have a close relationship, and it's possible to send troops to support Gaochang. Although you and Li Jing are both the coaches of this time, you still have to listen to him when it comes to major issues." Opinion."

Li Xiaogong was not a self-willed person, he knew that Li Jing's military ability was superior to his own, so he nodded.

After Li Xiaogong left, Li Shimin touched the fur on his seat. Leng Feng said that Gaochang cotton can be used to make clothes, quilts and seat cushions, at least it is more comfortable than fur.

He doesn't care about the comfort of the cotton cushions, he just hopes that the people can wear cotton clothes.Liu Yuan is running around the country to reform agriculture. If there is such a magical thing as cotton, the people will be able to live comfortably.

Let the common people, he Li Shimin will be the most outstanding emperor in hundreds of years, coupled with the military weapons such as gunpowder weapons, it is only easy to expand the territory, and it is not a big problem for him to chase Qin Huang and Han Wu.

Is it a person passed on by word of mouth?Li Shimin looked at the color of his dragon robe, his eyes blurred...

Li Jing was startled when he saw Zhang Zhongqing, who was holding a quiver and his eyes were bloodshot, how desperate was this man?
Zhang Zhongqing didn't talk nonsense, put the arrow box on the table and said: "You are the biggest leader in this expedition to Gaochang, you should be the first to experiment with the Cloud Piercing Arrow, take the bow and follow me, find a secluded place ,experiment!"

Li Jing asked worriedly: "Is your body still able to hold it? Don't let us go out, but you collapsed."

Zhang Zhongqing waved his hand and said: "It's useless to talk less, when I fought with His Majesty, I used to spend seven days and nights without closing my eyes, this is nothing, let's go!"

Li Xiaogong confirmed one thing with me today, it seems that troops are about to be dispatched, and the Cloud Piercing Arrow must appear on the battlefield! "

Li Jing had no choice but to find Gong and follow Zhang Zhongqing out the door. In order to keep it secret, he didn't even call the guards.

After the two of them rode into the deep mountains, Zhang Zhongqing took out the cloud-piercing arrow from the quiver and said to Li Jing: "At present, I have made blue, red, purple, three colors, with sound and without sound. , thick smoke without flames, and flames with less smoke, tell me what you want to try."

Li Jing said: "Try the red fire with smoke first."

Zhang Zhongqing took out an arrow painted with red paint and handed it to Li Jing.

Although Li Jing's bow and arrow is not at the top level, but at least it is at an average level, shooting an arrow is still no problem.

After igniting the fuze, Zhang Zhongqing's cloud-piercing arrow didn't circle in mid-air this time, but flew high obediently, and the red fire and fire below were clearly discernible.

Li Jing nodded in satisfaction. The red fire piercing cloud arrow is very suitable as a signal arrow for attacking.

"What did you add?" Li Jing asked casually.

Zhang Zhongqing glanced at Li Jing and said, "This is the secret of Jinglei Division, do you want to inquire about it?"

Li Jing shook his head hastily, except for the emperor's subordinates, who knows who is unlucky!

Zhang Zhongqing said impatiently, "What do you want next?"

Li Jing said: "Listen to the loud one, the sound must be loud enough."
