Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

Chapter 471 It rained heavily and the gunpowder got wet

When Li Zhi was sent to Sujiazhuang, Su Yu fed him beef and milk, and learned how to ride a horse with a sword and a gun.

But Li Shimin did not learn the most important archery.

Su Yu said at the time that bows and arrows were outdated, but Li Shimin was not convinced at the time.

How did the bow and arrow become obsolete?

Fighting on the battlefield, close-range swords and guns, long-range bows and crossbows.

Now he finally understood what Su Yu meant.

The special musket in Li Zhi's hand is much more powerful than a crossbow.

After a gunshot, Quan Boyan fell off the horse and died on the spot.

Gai Suwen was behind him, carrying five golden knives, watching the soldiers charge.

Li Shimin and the generals dispersed, and the shields of the Tang infantry were removed.

Gai Suwen sensed the danger when he revealed a row of musketeers behind him.

Then gunshots rang out, and the Goguryeo cavalry fell one by one.

The Liaodong cavalry led by Wen Kesha heard the gunfire, turned around and ran away.

Only the [-] elite soldiers brought by Quan boys rushed forward.

Wen Kesha ran back and shouted: "Lord Mo Zhili, run away, this is Datang's Thunder Striker Army, we can't beat it."

Gai Suwen heard about it from deserters, but he didn't believe it.

"Wen Kesha, the truth has brought a hundred thousand elite soldiers, what are you afraid of!"

"Fleeing, the truth will kill you first."

Gai Suwen cursed.

Wen Kesha pointed behind him and said: "Look, my lord, the Thunder Army is there, and we will die if we charge."

Gai Suwen watched the elite soldiers he brought turned into a mountain of corpses and stopped in front.

Every time a shot was fired, one or two thousand cavalry fell down.

The cavalry behind was tripped and made a living target.

Within a few moments of the war, tens of thousands of cavalrymen died.

At this time, Gai Suwen knew the fear.

No wonder Gao Yanshou and Gao Bao were captured alive. Why did the Tang army have such a fearful army?

"My lord, retreat!"

Wen Kesha begged Gai Suwen.

"Where's my son? Where's my son!"

Gai Suwen roared.

He just remembered that his son Quan Boyan was the first to charge.

Gai Suwen rode a horse and marched against the defeated soldiers.

When he rushed to the front of the battle, he saw his son Quan Boyan rushing towards Li Shimin with a big knife in his hand.

"Li Shimin, take your life!"

Boy Quan went straight to Li Shimin.

At this moment, Gai Suwen saw Li Zhi holding a fire stick in his hand and aiming at Boy Quan.

Knowing the danger, Gai Suwen shouted: "Come back!"

Li Zhi shot, Quan Boyan died under the horse.

Gai Suwen was furious and drew his sword to charge.

Wen Kesha rushed over from behind and grabbed the reins of Gaisuwen's war horse.

"Lord Mo Zhili, retreat!"

Winksha begged.

Although Gai Suwen was angry, he was not crazy.

In such a situation, rushing up would be death.

"Li Shimin, I must kill

Gai Suwen cursed and fled back.

Goguryeo was defeated like a mountain, leaving behind a corpse.

Li Zhi saw Gai Suwen, and sighed, "It's a pity that Gai Suwen is gone with only one bullet."

It was more troublesome to reload the sniper rifle, and it was too late to shoot again, so I could only watch this fellow flee.

Li Shimin waved his whip and pointed, and Li Jing led his troops to hunt down Goguryeo.

Chasing all the way and killing all the way, the corpse was lying on the road for dozens of miles.

Li Jing accompanied Li Shimin to hunt down, they can't be too fast.

Because the musketeers didn't ride horses, they couldn't keep up with the speed.

The cold wind from the mountains blows down, and the dark clouds roll in the sky, which means that there will be heavy rain.

"My lord, it's going to rain."

Lao Chen caught up on horseback and spoke.

"Don't be afraid, attack Liaodong City in one go and kill Gai Suwen."

"Then we can go all the way south to attack Pingcheng, the capital of Goguryeo."

Li Shimin saw the dark clouds in the sky and knew that it was going to rain.

Old Chen said: "No, Your Majesty, the gunpowder cannot be fired if it is wetted with water, and muskets, cannons, and explosives will all be useless."

Li Shimin stopped and asked in surprise, "Can't you get wet?"

Old Chen nodded and said, "That's right, if we get wet, our Shenji Battalion will be unable to fight."

This is the most basic gunpowder knowledge, of course Lao Chen knows it.

Li Shimin only knows that gunpowder is easy to use, but he doesn't understand its performance.

There was lightning and thunder in the sky, and it began to rain heavily.

The rain was too heavy, and Li Shimin quickly became a drowned rat.

Li Jing reined in his horse and told the army to stop.

Li Shimin shouted badly: "I brought out all the gunpowder."

Old Chen was confused and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you bring out all the gunpowder?"

Gunpowder is the most critical armament. It is always kept in the room and carried according to the amount used during battle.

Moreover, this thing has always been in charge of Lao Chen.

Li Shimin unexpectedly brought them all out without anyone noticing.

Li Shimin said regretfully: "I wanted to wipe out Liaodong City and Gai Suwen in one wave, so I brought them all out."

Old Chen said in a tussock, "Let's retreat, it's raining, and the Shenji Battalion can't fight anymore."

"Without gunpowder, Liaodong City cannot be exploded."

Li Shimin had no choice but to retreat.

Back in Anshi City, the rain stopped.

Li Shimin was drenched in water, and his shoes were full of water.

Su Yu was still sleeping in the room, Li Shimin said angrily, "I'm going to settle accounts with Su Yu, the brat can't fight."

Li Jing persuaded: "Your Majesty, we drenched the gunpowder."

"At this time, if you find trouble with your son-in-law, I'm afraid you'll make yourself miserable."

Li Shimin thinks about it too, if he messed up the gunpowder, he will definitely be scolded by Su Yu.

Everyone changed their clothes and came out, but their hair was still wet.

Lao Chen took his brothers from the Shenji Camp to maintain the muskets.

It just got wet in the rain, so it can't be ruined.

Li Shimin was sitting in the main hall, and the other generals were also wearing their hair.

"It's a pity that Gai Suwen was gone, and Liaodong City was not captured."

Li Shimin yelled it was a pity.

Li Jing said: "It rained too much just now, so I didn't have time to count the number of people, but it is estimated that more than 5 people were killed, which is enough."

The main reason is that there are many kills in the Shenji camp.

Later, there were not many chases and kills.

"His Royal Highness King Jin made a great contribution this time. He shot and killed Gai Suwen's eldest son, Quan boy, which is a great achievement."

Yu Chigong said.

All the generals nodded in praise and said: "King Jin has the demeanor of the emperor during the battle at Hulaoguan."

Li Shimin was very happy to hear that.

"Back then, I fought against Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande in front of Hulao Pass."

"Our army was unfavorable in the first battle. I led the Xuanjia army to charge and fight bloody battles to turn the tide of the battle. From then on, the Central Plains were pacified."

Li Shimin remembered the battle at Hulaoguan.

At that time, the three major powers in the Central Plains, one was Li Shimin, occupying the land in Guanzhong.

One is that Wang Shichong occupies Luoyang, and Dou Jiande is in Shandong and Hebei.

At that time, Wang Shichong and Li Shimin fought against Hulao Pass.

Dou Jiande was afraid that Li Shimin was too powerful, and that Wang Shichong would die after being defeated.

So he led troops to reinforce Wang Shichong.

The battle situation at that time was very unfavorable, and it was all thanks to Li Shimin leading the Xuanjia Army to turn the battle situation around.

"At that time, the emperor personally shot and killed dozens of people with a carved bow, and the Xuanjia army took the lead bravely, one against a hundred."

Chai Shao praised.

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "That's when my old Cheng and Shubao decided to join the emperor."

It is full of memories.

Li Zhi was even more surprised.

The general of the court compared himself to Li Shimin, and it seems that he has something to do.
