Chapter 222 The imagination of the people
"Your Majesty, please sit down!"
"Let Weichen explain slowly." Shen An tried his best to apologize.
"I won't go back, so you can explain here." Li Shimin stood still, and Li Zhi followed him.
Behind him, dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at Shen An, some frightened and some angry. If Li Shimin gave the order, they would all pounce on Shen An and eat him.
Haha, stare, stare!
Even if I stare right through you, you can't do anything to me!
After a few glances, Shen An turned to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, this is the weapon I developed."
"Do you think it's powerful?"
"It's really extraordinary." Li Shimin looked at the scorch marks all over the ground and said sincerely.
"What the hell is this?"
"It's called a bomb."
"Bomb?" Faced with the sudden and unfamiliar vocabulary, the wise Li Shimin also showed a confused expression.
What it is?
I can't understand it at all.
Shen An completely understood his doubts. If Li Shimin understood the effectiveness of this thing, he really needed a lot of explanations.
"Your Majesty, this kind of weapon uses fire to attack. The main raw materials are sulfur, saltpeter and other substances. The mixture of sulfur and saltpeter is called gunpowder, and the weapons made of gunpowder are called explosives."
"Your Majesty has also seen it. If one is released, it can achieve such attack power. If this bomb is thrown on the enemy, Your Majesty, I am not bragging, it will definitely be a fatal blow!"
"Pour a big piece of it!"
"Moreover, Your Majesty, you may think that it has a huge advantage!"
"What advantage?"
After listening to Shen An's story, Li Shimin's face was full of smiles and he became excited instantly. It's true, if this thing could be used on the battlefield, wouldn't our Tang Army be invincible and invincible!
"With the use of explosives, we can attack from a distance and better protect the safety of Tang Army soldiers."
"I wonder if Your Majesty paid attention to my bomb-dropping action just now?"
"Bomb-dropping action?"
"Is it when you threw this stick out?" Li Shimin stood in front for a long time. Seeing that nothing happened, Hu Zhi also walked up.
He shook his little head that was still full of baby fat and said jokingly.
"Your Highness is so smart, that's what he did!" Shen An's eyes lit up. Sure enough, Xiao Li Zhi is still a talent that can be made, and he can show it clearly.
The cooperation with him is truly a tacit understanding.
"I stood there and threw the bomb. According to a person's arm strength, I could throw it at least two meters away."
"The enemies in front cannot approach the Tang army at all, and will be completely wiped out. This advantage is absolutely unmatched by iron weapons!" He explained with bright eyes. Li Shimin nodded frequently, and the more he listened, the happier he became.
In front of his eyes, a magnificent picture gradually unfolded.
Turks!
Tibet!
Goguryeo!
All the old enemies can be eliminated with this treasure!
"A long-distance attack, does that mean it's like a bow and arrow?"
oh!
Shen An's mouth opened into an O shape, extremely huge!
Draw inferences from one example, great job, fox cure!
Seeing that Li Zhi was so clever and intelligent, Shen An was really comforted. In this way, all his hard work would not be in vain!
"His Royal Highness King Jin is right!"
"This thing can also be tied to a bow and arrow, and the power will be doubled!"
"Besides, bows and arrows really require some accuracy. If you don't train seriously for three to five years, your archery skills will not improve."
"The personal abilities of a warrior are also very demanding. For example, in archery, Wei Chen is extremely bad at it. I have been weak since I was a child, and even with all my strength, I couldn't draw the bow."
"But it's different with explosives. As you all saw just now, it's just that for a thin person like me, I didn't have to waste much strength to throw the explosives out."
"Besides, the attack range of this weapon is very wide. It is not like a real sword or a real gun. It can only hit one enemy with one strike. It is also very labor-intensive and requires diligent practice and mastery of martial arts."
"But this weapon is different. If one is thrown, it will affect at least three or five people. Either the limbs or the torso will be injured. Those who are hit by the bullet will definitely not be able to stand up and will completely lose their combat effectiveness."
"Uh-huh," Shimin nodded desperately, like an honest primary school student.
This result made everyone present very happy, and Shen An's next plan is about to be unveiled.
"Your Majesty, do you think Wei Chen's weapon is pretty good?"
Seeing Li Shimin's happy face, Shen An felt that he could move the topic elsewhere.
"Okay! That's great!" Li Shimin squatted down and fiddled with the explosives in the treasure box. If this thing hadn't been thrown out, it exploded and blackened the palace. He really wanted Shen An to throw it again. A few pills are enough to satisfy your cravings.
Unlike the others present, Li Shimin came from the battlefield. Thinking about the days when swords were flashing and blood raining, it makes people's hearts surge.
To be honest, Li Shimin missed those days. Although he was often afraid that his life would not last long on the battlefield, and he didn't know if he could survive until the next battle started and see the Tang Dynasty established.
But at that time, the whole person's mental state was high-spirited and enterprising. Shimin felt that a man must grow into a real hero.
This process is not easy and is full of hardships. Li Shimin has long been tempered with a steely will after a long journey.
If he had such a weapon in his hands back then, he would have established greater achievements long ago. Alas, he was really not born at a good time.
He is now forty years old. Strictly speaking, he is not too old to go to the battlefield. As a general, he can still command operations.
I really want to use this thing myself!
Wearing armor, wearing a futou, riding a horse, conquering cities and territories!
There were ripples in the heart that had been quiet for a long time. For a moment, Li Shimin actually wanted to abandon the throne and jump on his horse to whip his whip.
"OK!"
"Great!" He sighed repeatedly, feeling very comfortable in his heart. Above him, Shen An and Li Zhi looked at each other.
It seems that I still need to remind you!
"Your Majesty, what about our agreement?"
"Do you think..."
"What promise?" Li Shimin was so excited that he lost his mind for a moment and actually forgot about his promise.
Shen An was helpless: "Elixir!"
"Your Majesty, we have made an agreement. If I can make a powerful weapon that dazzles you, you will no longer take pills."
"You have to admit that we just verified it."
"Oh, you're talking about that!" A guilty expression appeared on Li Shimin's face. Haha, as expected, he wanted to back down again.
However, Shen An will never let him say it, and don't try to get away with it. If I didn't want you to be hurt, why would I bother making these things so much.
Wouldn’t it be nice if I had this time to go to Duoduo to make rock candy and sell it for money?
