Cheng Chubi's expression was as serious as if he were standing in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, facing the heroic sons and daughters with a red-hot iron.
"What does uncle mean by this? Is it possible that my nephew can still deceive you? Of course it couldn't be more true."
After Cheng Chubi said these words, Li Shimin smashed his mouth, his expression seemed a little unhappy.
And the eyes, well... it makes people feel that there are flickering cold gleams, as if he is hesitating whether he should throw the cup as a sign.
Zhou Gongjin called out five hundred swordsmen and axes to chop Liu Bei into pieces.
Cheng Chubi was completely confused. What the hell is going on with this girl? Why does she feel so frightened when she eats an ice cream?
Fortunately, Li Shimin finally showed a gentle smile.
It was as if Cheng Chubi was dazzled by the glint of swords and shadows in his eyes just now.
"I also think it's good. Well, if there are any shortcomings, please remember to mention it, so I can ask them to improve it next time."
"Okay, uncle." Cheng Chubi didn't dare to say anything. He always felt that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was in a strange mood today.
It has to be said that perhaps the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty had become accustomed to eating ice cream using the licking method, and the speed was not much slower than Cheng Chubi's biting method.
Soon, after the two of them ate the ice cream, the coolness slowly melted in their stomachs, making them feel much better.
Li Shimin wiped his mouth, stroked his long beard, and said slowly.
"Nephew Chu Bi, the two gunpowder weapons you tested at the shooting range today really shocked me."
"Their destructive power is far beyond the reach of human beings. The huge power of their explosion is enough to make all the soldiers in the world feel ashamed."
"Whether it is used to attack the enemy or to defend it, it is definitely a rare weapon for the country."
"And as you said, gunpowder can be used both in war and in people's livelihood.
However, I feel that if this thing is used for people's livelihood rashly, I'm afraid there is no telling what kind of trouble it will cause.
After all, this thing is too dangerous, so it should be used in the military first..."
Cheng Chubi listened to the lively Li Shimin talking here, and it could be seen that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was in high spirits.
This shows his inner preference for gunpowder weapons. Also, Li Shimin himself was the second founding emperor who was about to conquer the world.
One is his father Li Yuan. He can never ride on his biological father, so he can only be the other two.
But there seemed to be too many people at the shooting range before.
And he was the leader of the Tang Dynasty, so some words were really inappropriate to say in front of so many ministers.

Now, the only person standing in front of him was Cheng Chubi, a junior whom he regarded as his nephew.
Even if he expresses himself a little more, this kid definitely can't let it out indiscriminately.
When he first saw the grenades, Li Shimin had already realized the lethality of this thing, but after seeing the power of the mines.
He realized that he had underestimated this thing.
Gunpowder is completely different from other standard weapons of the Tang Dynasty. The standard weapons of the Tang Dynasty, such as a horizontal knife, can be chopped hard.
At most, it can only kill one enemy. If it is longer, it will be Mo Dao. At most, it can chop the person with the knife.
As for gunpowder weapons, as long as they explode, enemies on all sides will be hit, and the power will double as the amount of gunpowder increases.
After chattering for a long time, and finally seeming to get his emotions out, Li Shimin sat back down again.
"Xiannie Chu Bi, I watched you throw bombs today. It didn't seem difficult. However, when you were making landmines, I didn't think anything was wrong at first.
I was really worried about you afterwards, I didn’t expect the power to be so extraordinary."
Cheng Chubi nodded and explained, "My uncle is right, but not entirely right."
"Throwing a bomb may seem easy on the surface, but in fact it is quite dangerous. If you are not careful, not only will you fail to hurt the enemy, but you may also hurt yourself..."
In a chaotic situation like the battlefield, you want to completely ignite the grenade and throw it.
What is needed is long-term training to form muscle memory and be able to remain calm in times of crisis.
Even if there is an unexpected accident, such as a dropped grenade, it can still be dealt with calmly and in a timely manner.
Cheng Chubi remembered that in the seventeenth century, grenadiers had already appeared in the Western Barbarian countries.
Moreover, grenadiers are the elite of the army and must be tall, brave and fearless warriors.
And it also requires rigorous and long-term training before those grenadiers can go on the battlefield and become a strong support for their comrades.
As for pull-type mines, as long as the operating procedures are strictly followed, the risk is far less than that of grenades.
After all, landmines are laid where no enemies appear, so everything can be laid out calmly.
After hearing Cheng Chubi's explanation, Li Shimin stroked his long beard and said after a long time.
"It seems that you kid is really not talking nonsense. After listening to your explanation, it seems that it is really what happened."
Cheng Chubi chuckled and quickly put on a very loyal and courageous expression.
"Uncle, ever since my nephew was ordered to become the Ordnance Superintendent, he has been thinking about how to do a good job in the Gunpowder Department."
"I'm even more thinking about how to apply the tactics and tactics of these gunpowder weapons to war..."
Bragging, no, no, no, of course this is not bragging, but stating the facts. Cheng Chubi’s mind has been influenced by modern warfare.
I have been baptized by countless strategies and tactics, of course, mainly through the nutrition gained from film and television dramas.
But this does not prevent him from having vision and foresight beyond this era.
Li Shimin stared at this kid blankly, always feeling that he was starting to talk nonsense again, talking serious nonsense.
But there was no evidence, and what he said seemed to make sense.
For example, when the enemy starts an assault, the sword, shield and spear soldiers can stabilize the formation in the front, and the grenadiers in the rear can throw bombs calmly.
Throw it far enough to cause huge damage to the attacking enemies.
"Well...stop for a moment."
After hearing what Cheng Sanlang said, Li Shimin had a bold idea.
He raised his arm to stop this guy from continuing to chatter.
I asked Cheng Chubi in detail about his live-fire training and heard about the astonishing amount of gunpowder consumed by each person in a day.
After combining the gunpowder reserves of the Gunpowder Department reported by Li Chengguang today, Li Shimin made a decision immediately.
"In this case, I will recruit 30 more craftsmen for the Gunpowder Department and start training after winter. I believe that by early spring next year, there should be enough..."
Hearing this, Cheng Chubi immediately reacted.
It seems that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has never forgotten the small country of Gaochang, which is far away in the Western Regions.
