Liu Shi frowned, thought for a while, shook his head and said: "I think Cen Langjun doesn't understand the power of firearms, especially what kind of power the tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder stored in the warehouse mean. In short, once
The gunpowder was detonated, and no one, including the foundry, survived within a mile! Therefore, if Mr. Cen wanted to fight to the end and annihilate the enemy, then sending someone to detonate the gunpowder at the last moment would be enough to make the rebels outside give us a
Buried with him. But if you want to detonate the gunpowder and then break out, it is absolutely impossible. Unless you arrange for someone to hide in the warehouse in advance, and wait until the brigade has gone far before detonating it."
At this point, he paused and sighed: "But with all due respect, no one can complete this task. Thousands of troops are fighting on the battlefield, and there are countless people who can regard death as if they are returning home. They can be called warriors. However,
When a person hides in a secret room of a warehouse, with tens of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder around him, and if it detonates, his body will be gone, and if he thinks about it in that silence, he will never be able to die generously."
People have a herd mentality, and in certain specific circumstances, it is relatively easy for them to be enthusiastic and reckless for a while. However, it is extremely difficult to think calmly in silence, weigh the pros and cons, and still be able to regard death as home.
Xu Jingzong nodded and snorted: "What Liu Langzhong said is true. Only those with little experience can always put life and death in their mouths. They seem to be able to generously serve righteousness, but in fact they hesitate to move forward when the matter comes, which makes people laugh.
!”
He was sarcastic, and Ouyang Tong's dark face turned red, and he said angrily: "How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? Lord Xu has a low opinion of himself and others. He cherishes his own life but thinks that others cannot die generously. It is really ridiculous! You will lead the students later.
After breaking through, I hid in the warehouse and was responsible for detonating the gunpowder!"
Xu Jingzong glared angrily: "Don't get so excited right now, hide in the warehouse later, and pee your pants while watching the gunpowder detonate and shatter your body to pieces! It's okay to pee your pants, but if you wet the fuse, it will
It would be great if the gunpowder finally fell into the hands of the rebels!"
"you!"
Ouyang Tong was furious. His thin body suddenly took a step forward and glared at Xu Jingzong fiercely. Xu Jingzong was so frightened that he subconsciously took a step back...
Immediately he woke up, his face turned from embarrassment to anger, and he was ready to retort with ridicule.
Cen Changqian quickly pulled Ouyang Tong back, waving his hands and saying: "Everyone, please be patient! Why are you arguing about such a trivial matter? In fact, there is no need for anyone to stay in the warehouse and be responsible for detonating the gunpowder after the brigade leaves. The left and right are just delayed ignition.
, very easy.”
Liu Xi's eyes lit up: "Cen Langjun, do you have any good ideas?"
He believed that he absolutely did not have the courage to stay in the warehouse and be responsible for detonating the gunpowder, and he did not believe that others could do this. But if he could not detonate the gunpowder, even if he successfully broke through, the rebels would get the gunpowder.
It is a serious dereliction of duty.
If Cen Changqian can really solve this problem, then breaking out is the best option.
Cen Changqian laughed and said: "When setting off firecrackers during the New Year, I would also tie the lit incense to the fuse of the firecracker and hide it under the bed of my friends. When the incense burned out, the firecracker would be ignited, and it would explode suddenly, often
My friend was so scared that he screamed..."
"Wonderful!"
Cen Changqian said halfway, Liu Shi already clapped his hands and praised, and said overjoyed: "This delayed ignition is really a good method. We tied the gunpowder fuse to the incense in advance, and waited until we broke through, and the gunpowder was fired."
It will detonate, not only can all the gunpowder be destroyed and prevent it from falling into the hands of the rebels, but the powerful force after the gunpowder is detonated can also kill a large number of rebels. It really kills two birds with one stone!"
Xu Jingzong was also surprised and praised, stroking his beard and smiling: "Who would have thought that ordinary childish tricks can be of great use in critical moments like this? Cen Changqian is smart, wise, and full of strategies. She is better than those who only know how to show off their strength.
The idiot is too strong!"
"Mom!"
Ouyang Tong was so angry that his face turned red and his neck thickened, and he even uttered obscenities, trying to break away from Cen Changqian and rush forward to punch this sinister old man.
Cen Changqian quickly grabbed him and dissuaded him: "Don't be impatient for a moment, don't be impatient for a moment! Now we are on the verge of a desperate situation. Even if we break through, we don't know how much damage we will suffer. Will we be able to break through to Zhongnan Mountain alive?"
Why should we worry about some disputes? We should cooperate sincerely and fight side by side!"
Ouyang Tong looks thin and frail, but in fact has a bad temper, but he has always been convinced by Cen Changqian. Although he was still angry after hearing this, he calmed down and turned his head away from Xu Jingzong's proud old face...
However, after hearing Cen Changqian's words, Xu Jingzong's expression also changed. He couldn't help sighing and said worriedly: "I don't know what will happen to those people under General Xin Mao now..."
The other people were silent for a moment.
Xin Mao rushed to the Kunming Pool with all his strength, and launched his ships to bombard the rebels with artillery, killing countless enemies. If not, the Foundry Bureau would not have been able to persist until now. But after the cannonballs ran out, those ships became living targets. Once the rebels
If the army besieges it, it will be doomed and disaster will come.
Cen Changqian took a deep breath and said: "Master Xu, there is no need to worry. Classmate Xin will definitely be able to break out of the encirclement due to his good fortune and good fortune. Now is not the time to think so much. We should try to lead the classmates to break out of the encirclement and find a way out."
Liu Shi nodded and said, "That's exactly what it should be!"
At that moment, the four people discussed carefully, formulated various strategies, tried their best to solve all the defects they could think of, and then started to take action.
Ouyang Tong was responsible for going out to gather the scattered students who were relying on fortifications to resist the rebel attack, and took a few classmates to yell around, saying, "If you can't do anything, you should fight bravely and fight to the death." "Since the enemy wants the warehouse,
If the firearms are in the warehouse, then everyone will retreat to the warehouse and ignite the gunpowder, killing both the enemy and the enemy." The enemy and we were fighting fiercely in the same place, and naturally everyone could hear it clearly.

Then the academy students fought and retreated, giving up all the fortifications and concentrating them near the warehouse, which frightened the generals who were commanding the rebels.
They were wreaking havoc with artillery overhead, leaving countless casualties. The ultimate goal was to seize the firearms in the Foundry Bureau's warehouse and use them to capture the imperial city. But if these students were really cruel and died together, what would they do?
This is not only the loss of the firearms in the Foundry Bureau, but what is more serious is that once the gunpowder in the warehouse detonates, it will cause huge damage. Those who come forward to besiege will probably be buried with these students!
He immediately ordered not to push too hard, and even intended to withdraw the troops, leaving only an encircling posture and waiting to see what would happen.
This gives academy students a rare opportunity to rest and recuperate.
The students of this year are not the weak scholars who were distracted by the Four Books and Five Classics hundreds of years ago. They have been familiar with bows and horses since they were young. They are also proficient in sword and sword fighting skills. They are full of vigor and fierce fighting power. But even if
In this way, after a bloody battle in the middle of the night, there were countless casualties.
Almost all the students who were withdrawn at the moment were injured. Fortunately, thousands of craftsmen were working here in the foundry bureau, and they were injured from time to time, so they prepared a large amount of wound medicine. Liu Shi ordered General Shang to find them and let the students deal with each other.
Once the wound is broken, when the encirclement breaks out later, as long as there is still breath, it will be taken away. It is impossible to abandon it and eventually suffer the fate of being shattered into pieces.
The rebels outside were afraid that the students would actually detonate the gunpowder in the warehouse and did not dare to attack without hesitation. However, after waiting for a long time and seeing no movement from the students, they tentatively moved towards the warehouse little by little.
Cen Changqian and Liu Xi were in the warehouse, surrounded by gunpowder in wooden barrels. The incense stick was brought by Liu Xi from his room. It contains sandalwood. After burning, it can refresh the mind and calm the nerves.
The effect of quiet contemplation. Cen Changqian carefully tied one end of the incense stick to a fuse extending into the gunpowder barrel. She was sure that once the incense stick burned to the end, it would ignite the fuse, and then she picked up the fire stick and blew it.
He had been fighting hard all night. At this moment, he was lacking in physical strength and a little nervous. When he lit the incense stick, his hands shook...
"Mom! My little ancestor, can you be steady? Come on, come on, you better leave it to me!"
Liu Xi saw that the flame almost touched the fuse, and Hun'er was almost frightened. He quickly stopped Cen Changqian, took the fire stick, and lit the incense steadily.
Cen Changqian also took a breath and said with a smile: "This incense stick is rich in sandalwood, and the fragrance is light but not dissipating. It is indeed a good thing. You should light one when you have leisure time to read in the future. It will refresh your mind and enjoy it."
Liu Shi was speechless, how long has it been since then and you still expressed such emotion?
He quickly urged: "If you survive this time, why don't I give you a few boxes of incense sticks? Get out quickly, this stick of incense can burn for half an hour at most, but don't blow it up before we can break out.
