Chapter 729: Burning the Khitan Royal City (1st Update)


"After returning to Chang'an, the palace will mention this matter to the father, and the father will never object, and the palace will worship the military master as a teacher."

Li Zhi said happily to Xu Maogong.

Xu Maogong didn't understand that Li Zhi didn't want to learn what to arrange troops with him.

Instead, he wants to use the name of master and apprentice to win himself over.

However, Xu Maogong did not have the slightest disgust, but had some joy in his heart.

After all, from this point of view alone, Li Zhi was more scheming than Li Chengqian back then.

At least he knew how to win over the old ministers of the court, and he didn't feel like he was high because he was the prince.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should hurry up and rest for a while, I'm afraid there will be no time to rest in the second half of the night."

Xu Maogong said to Li Zhi.

Yu Chi Gong took Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baoqing back to the pioneer camp.

When he entered the pioneer tent, he saw Li Tai sitting there leisurely drinking tea.

Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baoqing hurriedly stepped forward and said to Li Taishi: "Yu Chi Baolin Yu Chi Baoqing has seen the lord. ” "Why are you here, did you come on the orders of the marshal to escort the gunpowder bombs?"

asked Li Tai after helping the two of them up.

"The lord is right, the marshal is worried that something will go wrong on the road, so let our brothers and sisters come with our father."

Yu Chi Baolin nodded and said.

"Since you're here, let's do your father a favor tonight."

After Li Tai nodded, he said to the two brothers of Yu Chi Baolin.

"Lord, didn't you ever confess.

Until the time of life and death, our army will definitely not reach out to help" Yu Chi Baolin said to Li Tai.

"At this time and at that time, if it were just an ordinary war, we would naturally not reach out to help.

But now that this gunpowder is to be used, the king has to worry a little. ” "If you don't use it well, I'm afraid it will cause casualties to your own people.

Therefore, this matter needs to be strictly controlled by you, and there must be no mistakes.

Li Tai said to Yu Chi Baolin.

"Let your kid say, my Wei Chigong is too wasteful.

It's just these fireworks, that is, they go off.

Is there any great power that can't be done?

In my opinion, you just want to take the opportunity to make some money.

Wei Chigong said disdainfully to Li Tai.

"Father, you're wrong.

We didn't just bring fireworks, but gunpowder bombs that the Lord had painstakingly developed.

It's more powerful than you can imagine.

Yu Chi Baolin said to Yu Chi Gong.

The matter has come to this point, even if Yu Chi Baolin doesn't say it, Yu Chi Gong will know when it is night.

So naturally, there is no need to hide it.

"Uncle Wei Chi, tonight the king will let you see the power of this firework.

Then you'll know what real killing is.

Li Tai said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

Minutes and seconds passed, and the night covered the entire grassland, dotted with stars in the sky.

The whole night sky is so peaceful and pleasant.

After Yu Chi Baolin looked at the time, he said to Yu Chi Gong: "Father, it's almost time to do it." ” After Wei Chigong nodded, he picked up a bamboo tube and gently pulled the rope in his hand in the sky.

A brilliant flame exploded in the sky.

A huge order lingered in the sky for a long time.

This is a signal flare developed by Li Taixin, after all, fireworks can be bought for as long as you spend money nowadays.

If you don't improve the flares, it's easy to be confused by others using fake signals.

As Yu Chigong released the signal flare, countless lanterns and torches suddenly lit up around the Khitan Royal City.

The entire periphery of Khitan City was illuminated as if it were daylight.

At the same time, cans of fire oil were thrown directly into the Khitan King City by the stone thrower.

They didn't really have any lethal power, some smashed on the walls, some flew into the city.

In the end, the crockpot was shattered, and the fire oil was poured everywhere.

At this time, Li Tai was standing outside the vanguard army camp, watching everything that happened in the Xiongnu King City from afar.

At the same time, he said: "It's time to start, inform Sun Qiang to let the Condor Army dispatch." ” In a short time, thousands of golden eagles flew in the sky, and they flew high in the air, and in the dark of night, with the naked eye, they could not be detected at all.

They threw one by one oil canisters directly into the Khitan King City.

In this way, almost the entire Khitan royal city was covered with fire oil.

At the same time, the Khitan king Dahe also received the news.

Immediately led people to the city wall to prepare to defend the city, thinking that the Tang army was preparing to attack the city by night.

However, the Khitan king Dahe Cave Brother only found out after he went up to the city wall.

Not a single soldier crossed the moat.

Just used a stone thrower to keep throwing fire oil into the Khitan royal city.

The oil tank ejected nearly a stick of incense for a full time.

Finally threw all the oil out.

Immediately, a huge order word bloomed in the sky again.

All the soldiers immediately loaded the prepared powder bombs into the stone thrower.

After lighting the fuse with a torch, it was thrown towards the Khitan royal city.

Some of these gunpowder bombs exploded directly in the sky, and brilliant sparks bloomed in the sky.

All of a sudden, it's really dazzling and dizzying.

Of course, most of the gunpowder bombs exploded only after they were thrown directly into the city.

The sparks from the explosion of the gunpowder bomb ignited the fire oil in the city.

In an instant, the entire royal city was engulfed in flames.

The soldiers on the walls did not escape the flames.

They tried their best to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but no matter how much they slapped, it was to no avail.

In the end, there were Khitan soldiers who jumped directly from the city wall, and some fell directly under the city wall and died.

Some of them are still breathing, desperately crawling towards the moat.

I hope that I can use the water in the moat to extinguish the fire on my body.

But before they could reach the moat, they closed their eyes unwillingly.

But the fire on their bodies has not been extinguished, and it is still slowly burning their bodies.

The Khitan king Dahe Cave Brother was not calm at this time, and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the city gate and break through to the outside of the royal city.

After all, the entire royal city has now been ablaze.

Staying in the city can only be burned to ashes.

But how could the Tang army let them break out of the Khitan Royal City smoothly.

It was already full of bows and arrows waiting outside the Khitan King City, at the moment when the city gate was opened.

Tens of thousands of rockets flew towards them.

At the same time, one after another, the fiery gunpowder bombs exploded inside the soldiers who rushed out of the city gates.

Each explosion sent the surrounding soldiers flying into the air and then falling down heavily.

The four city gates were blocked by 200,000 Tang troops, and it was impossible for the panicked Khitan soldiers to break through.

This made them completely desperate, and some even directly picked up their blades and cut their own throats.

After all, it is easier to break oneself than to be burned to death by fire.

This is the method that only desperate people choose, because no matter how hard they try, there is no hope of life.

Brother Dahe, the Khitan king, was also completely desperate, he knew that he was finished, and his nation was finished.

He regretted that he did not agree to Li Zhi's conditions, and he regretted that he was not able to do his best.

But now, no matter how much he remorse, he can't change this naked fact.

So the last Khitan king, Brother Dahe, ended his life with the sword in his hand.

The Khitan king Dahe Cave brother ended his life by himself.

However, this could not stop the offensive of the Tang army.

Gunpowder bombs are still exploding.

Until the sun slowly rose, no one broke through the four gates of the Khitan King City anymore.

The entire Khitan royal city became very quiet.

The screams of pain were gone.

All that remained was the crackling sound of the burning fire. and the stench of burnt corpses.

At this time, Yu Chigong was already stupid, he never imagined that it would end like this.

He knew that oil and gunpowder bombs could ignite the Khitan royal city, but he never thought that the entire Khitan royal city would be burned together.

It stands to reason that after such a long time, Wei Chigong should have gotten used to it.

But at this time, Wei Chigong was still very shocked, after all, this was beyond his understanding of war.

At this moment, Xu Maogong walked over, gently patted Wei Chi Gong's shoulder and said, "This is the horror of His Royal Highness King Yan, only he would think of such an inhumane tactic. ” "yes, this kid is just too ruthless."

Wei Chigong said subconsciously.

But in an instant, I felt like I was talking nonsense.

But the words have already been spoken, and it is impossible to take them back.

"You don't have to look at me with such eyes, when you went to Youzhou, I had already met His Royal Highness King Yan."

Xu Maogong said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

"It seems that Li Tai's kid is right, he can't hide your bull-nosed old way at all."

Wei Chigong said to Xu Maogong with a sigh.

"Let you charge, that is definitely the existence of ten thousand enemies.

But if you give you some advice, it's a duck on the shelf.

But every time I embarrass you, you can deal with it with ease.

Isn't that enough to make me doubt you," Xu Maogong asked with a smile.

"It seems that I am really old, and I have dominated the field for a lifetime.

But I never thought that the battle could be fought like this.

Nearly a million Khitan soldiers and civilians are now gone.

But our army did not suffer the slightest casualty. ” "I'm afraid that from ancient times to the present, no one has been able to fight such a beautiful battle."

Wei Chigong looked at the Xiongnu King City and said to Xu Maogong with a sigh.

"Forget it, don't get too angry here.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still waiting for us to return to our lives.

Anyway, this time your Wei Chigong's face is exposed.

Xu Maogong said to Yu Chigong with a smile.

So Wei Chigong ordered that the whole army should not relax in the slightest. lest there be any unexpected changes in the Khitan royal city.

After arranging everything, Wei Chigong and Xu Maogong were two. went to Li Zhi's Chinese army tent.

At this time, Li Zhi had already waited outside the Chinese army's tent
