In the Tang Dynasty, no matter whether they were nobles, common people, or merchants.
Further down, the poorest commoners, servants, and even slaves.
We all understand the truth that everything has value. But if anything comes into the hands of His Highness King Qin, its value will change dramatically.
Wool is originally a waste. Often in spring, the stench of burning wool is everywhere in the north.
If you have dozens of sheep at home, you can at least get a bushel of white flour in exchange for the current wool.
Wei Ting would not consider the value of Tuyuhun's gift, as long as King Qin was satisfied.
When night fell, Li Yuanxing's troops began to change their guard.
Li Yuanxing ordered people to hang a piece of white cloth on a stone wall and informed everyone that movies and paintings would be shown every night. This was a reward for everyone's hard work.
Therefore, no crowds are allowed, and everyone has a chance to see.
The film Li Yuanxing showed first was a 3D animation produced by later generations, and it was about the age of dinosaurs 170 million years ago.
There is no commentary and even the background music has been cancelled.
Because this explanation used too many modern words and quoted too many words that could not appear in the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuanxing decided to explain it himself.
Li Yuanxing did not use the word dragon, but changed all the characters for dragon into giant beasts.
"This one is fifteen feet long and weighs three hundred and fifty thousand kilograms. It is called the Anmenxi Giant Beast. It is three feet longer and weighs eighty thousand kilograms than the one we are going to dig today. The one we dug today is
, called the Great Xia Behemoth. Although this thing is big, it eats grass and trees. But in those days, even if it ate grass, not many could kill the Great Xia Behemoth."
As Li Yuanxing spoke, he picked up a leather shield.
"This is a cowhide shield. After it is made, it is only a finger thick. The skin of this giant beast of Great Xia is thicker than the walls of your homes. The meat on its body is enough to let go of all the soldiers who followed me this time.
Eat for two days."
"Your Highness, where can the giant beast of Anmen River be found?"
Li Yuanxing was easygoing. At this time, an ordinary soldier suddenly shouted and asked.
Li Yuanxing smiled and gestured to the sergeant to sit down: "I know that there may be a complete skeleton of one about ten thousand miles away from Chang'an." At this point, Li Yuanxing smiled and said: "Don't say anything, listen to me continue to speak.
!" Li Yuanxing was not allowed to speak because he was afraid that some sergeants would shout for war and fight to a place 10,000 miles away.
Next, Li Yuanxing spent about half an hour introducing the more typical dinosaurs in Asia.
Then it was replaced with a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
"This one appeared more than 50 million years later than the one we dug today. When he appeared, the giant beasts of Great Xia were already extinct. But there are still many very powerful giant beasts, but
This one is the most powerful one. This one is called the Thunder Giant Beast. Its teeth are longer than a grown man's arm, and it can crush two arms of giant trees with one bite. However, you have to find this one.
Only, you need to cross the sea of 50,000 miles, and then walk thousands of miles to find it. I hope that one day, you can find the real number one ferocious beast in ancient times on behalf of the Tang Dynasty and on behalf of my royal brother.
The skeleton of this giant beast!”
"Death for the Tang Dynasty! The Tang Dynasty will live forever!"
The sergeants shouted.
"Okay, I'll give you a reward today. No one has seen the movie Chang'an yet. Please be silent!"
Li Yuanxing screened "The Qin Empire".
Soldiers naturally like to see this the most. Li Yuanxing is also telling the Tyuhun people that the Tang Dynasty will be more powerful than the Qin Empire.
After coming down from the front desk and walking to the high platform at the back, Cui Yingying immediately came over with water in her hands.
Li Yuanxing sat down with a water cup and asked Wei Ting and Li Yuanchang softly: "I am preparing to establish my power. Do you think it is enough to let the Tuyuhun people see some blood or to make them afraid?"
Wei Ting did not answer directly, but said: "Your Highness should give up the trip to Yiwu and let King Yiwu come here to see His Highness. You should also invite King Gaochang by the way. Whether he comes or not is his business. As for Tuyuhun, next
I think it’s better not to see blood, and it’s enough to show them something to scare them.”
Li Yuanxing called Lu Mao over: "Are you going to handle this matter?"
"Your Highness..." Lu Maofeng said in his heart. He didn't explain anything. He just asked him to do it, how to do it, and to what extent. He really didn't have any confidence in his heart. But looking at Li Yuanxing's expression, he didn't dare to ask,
He could only bite the bullet and said: "The general will definitely do it well, Your Highness, don't worry!"
Many generals and soldiers cried when watching TV from the Qin Empire.
The people of Tuyuhun were still shocked by this mythical film and painting.
Li Yuanxing went to bed early. Digging out dinosaur bones could not be completed in a few days.
Early the next morning, before dawn, there was a loud roar outside. The general on duty mobilized three regiments and planned to dig out the huge skull completely in one day.
Lu Maofeng, on the other hand, summoned the generals leading the armies.
"His Highness said that we should give the Tuyuhun people a little strength to let them know how powerful our Tang Dynasty is. But the idiot Wei said that we should not see blood. You can give us an idea on this matter."
"We have artillery in the army, let them see it!" someone suggested.
Lu Maofeng shook his head: "This is not good. If we fire a cannon here and knock down that stone, it is a trivial matter for us to be injured. But it is not good to hurt the skeleton. You must know that this is placed at the gate of our Datang New Palace.
There must be no mistakes beforehand."
"Speaking of cannons, I have an idea!"
"General Gu, please speak, we are listening!" Lu Maofeng did not dare to claim to be the boss, but his tone was respectful.
The general surnamed Gu said: "A certain man was a mason before joining the army. When I was watching movies last night, a craftsman said that there is a cliff not far from here, about three miles away. If we dig below, make an opening on the top, and then use our
A fire thunderstorm can blow up half a mountain, and then a straight stone wall will appear."
"What if it's unfair?" someone asked.
"This time we brought four steam engines, set up a frame on the top of the mountain, and then hoisted the steam engines down. Hanging the polished steel wheels, we could grind out a flat stone wall. That one would be good for showing movies and paintings.
Besides, it’s not particularly high, only twelve feet above the ground and only twenty feet wide.”
After listening to this general's words, all the generals couldn't help but nodded.
Lu Maofeng also said: "When we leave, let His Highness mention the words and then let the craftsmen carve them on. It would be a good idea."
"That's it. Anyway, we can't pull it apart now with manpower. The only place that can dig out bones is that one mile."
These generals are all responsible people, and they will immediately start rectifying things.
There were many good masons in the camp, and dozens of them calculated the location, depth, and sequence of detonators.
When Li Yuanxing was preparing to have lunch, Murong Shun was frightened by more than a dozen loud noises and almost threw the bowl away. Looking at Li Yuanxing again, he didn't react at all. The sudden sound did not shock His Highness the King of Qin at all.
.
Li Yuanxing continued to eat and tell interesting stories about Chang'an City.
Murong Shun couldn't help it anymore: "Your Highness, King Qin, there was a loud noise outside, but I don't know what happened."
"They are probably blowing up the mountain. If Prince Shun is interested, you can go and have a look after dinner. I don't know why they are blowing up the mountain. I think it's just a trivial thing. Or maybe the soldiers are just having fun." Li Yuanxing
He said it easily, but he was also thinking in his heart, Lu Maofeng, what are you doing and why did you suddenly use the detonator.
Just as he was talking, there were dozens of loud noises in succession.
Murong Shun couldn't sit still anymore and complained to Li Yuanxing. He said he was taking people with him to see the fun, but in fact it was to relieve his inner doubts and nervousness.
Lu Maofeng became more and more excited.
There are more than 5,000 people working at the bottom of the mountain, which has almost hollowed out the lower half of the rocky mountain. If Li Yuanxing were here, he would definitely say that these people are really crazy. Aren't they afraid of sudden landslides or rockfalls?
?
But in fact, Li Yuanxing really underestimated the ancients.
The masons had already checked that the stone would slip, and had already made preparations to blow it up in advance.
"Get ready to explode, everyone retreat!" someone shouted from the top of the mountain.
With a whoop, more than five thousand people dispersed in all directions.
There was another continuous explosion, and everyone counted quietly.
"Seventeen rings, seventeen rings!" Many people shouted.
The general leading the team was also shouting: "Those who are responsible for dealing with bad mines. Armor piercers, go up and have a look!" If one of them didn't explode, there might be danger. A sergeant put on heavy clothes and carried a bomb on his head.
Steel hat, and then walked towards the stone wall, preparing to check one by one.
Murong Shun just came here to watch the excitement, and after greeting a general here, he asked: "I wonder what is going on here?"
"Get a flat stone wall for our King Qin to use for inscriptions. Split the mountain. This stone is good and can be split very flat. Some stones will be split layer by layer, but this one will be a whole piece. At most, there will be
It can be split in two days."
Split a mountain, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty must be talking nonsense.
"Lightning!" After the sergeant who was responsible for checking shouted, no one seemed to take it seriously. They had already retreated to a safe distance, so naturally they didn't feel scared.
After a loud noise, a large crater was blown out of the ground.
"Side, continue!" The general on the top of the mountain was commanding, and several people pushed the cart up. On the cart was a small steam engine, which was used to drill holes after it was started.
This time it was sixteen eyes, and it only took about half an hour.
Four steam engines completed the drilling of holes, and those in charge of gunpowder also completed the task of installing detonators.
The last person held up a small red flag: "Prepare to explode, everyone retreat!" The sergeant who was still clearing gravel and soil quickly stepped back hundreds of steps.
As before, there are still people counting. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!)
