After a failure, the Huns immediately changed their strategy. The Huns claimed to be the descendants of the Wolf God, and they themselves had wolf nature, greed, cunning, insidiousness, ferocity and other wolf qualities, which were vividly displayed in the Huns. The birth of Chanyu and the Wolf King
The birth of the Chanyu is exactly the same. As long as you have the strength and means, no matter what method you use to kill the old Chanyu, the new Chanyu will naturally be yours. No one else will doubt that he will only surrender. Therefore, the king of Juntun does not have no idea about the Chanyu position.
, it’s just that Yi Zhixie is stronger now.
Luan Da aroused the ambition of the Juntun King at the right time, so he naturally had to plan a way to convince the Juntun King. The two men secretly discussed in the big tent all night, during which two soldiers who accidentally passed by the big tent were captured.
The guard of the king of Touen was hacked to death on the spot. No one knew who the king of Juntun was talking to, and no one knew what the king of Juntun and Luan Da said. When the sun rose the next day, the tent of the king of Juntun was still there.
There is only one King of Juntun.
The disastrous defeat was like a contagious disease. When King Wu Jian worked hard to bring the defeated soldiers of Zuo Camp back to the camp, the whole camp was silent. This was the second disastrous defeat the Huns suffered after the last Battle of Mayi.
Although the damage was relatively light, the intimidating feeling hung over the heads of the Huns. Just like the little trick of the Juntun King, the Huns did not know what secret method the Han used, at least no one could tell clearly.
King Wu Jian threw a dark, fist-sized thing to the ground: "It is said that this is what I found in a puddle. Do not get close to the fire source. I don't know if it will explode."
A frightened young general quickly threw the thing into the big tent, rubbing his hands with lingering fear. Ashina walked over and picked it up, looking at it over and over for a long time: "It's such a small piece, but it can be so big."
The power?"
"General Ash can give it a try."
"How to try?"
King Wu Jian shook his head: "I don't know the details. I just burn it with fire."
In less time than a cup of tea, a pile of dried cow dung more than ten feet high was piled up in the square outside the camp. Ashina gently held the black thing and stood far away, holding a handful of it.
The flames began to burn, and slowly burned until the entire cow dung pile turned into a bonfire. A large group of people stood around the camp gate, everyone was far away, and only Ashina stood at the front.
Zha Keqi huddled behind his father and looked at Asch's army and the fire in front of him warily. He knew the power of this thing, so he was even more afraid. The king of Juntun had people build a huge bunker with round shields.
, only showing his eyes to watch the movements of Asch's tribe. The fire burned bigger and bigger, and Asch's tribe stood there quietly all the time. He regretted doing this, but when he saw the Zuoying troops brought back by King Wu Jian,
I regretted it even more after that.
No one urged, everyone watched quietly. Ashina gritted his teeth, looked around, suddenly threw the things in his hands into the flames, turned around and ran back like flying. Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.
As soon as I took one leg, I heard a huge explosion behind me. The air wave carried the cow dung that had not been extinguished and flew in all directions. Some struggled to land on the tents and set the tents on fire; some fell into the crowd, causing a shock.
call.
Ashina was knocked over by the air wave and was thrown into a muddy pond for a long time, unable to get up. A piece of burning cow dung on his back burned through his clothes and burned his skin, making a sizzling sound.
He rolled over and twisted his body vigorously, finally extinguishing the flames on his back, but a large piece of skin had been burned to coke.
The King of Juntun took a breath of cold air and turned to look at King Wu Jian: "It is indeed very powerful! But I already know what this thing is made of, and I will wait for a while to let the Han people taste the power of this thing. "
"Oh? You know?"
The military camp king smiled slightly and returned to the tent with his minions.
Seeing it thirty steps away from you and seeing it thirty miles away are two completely different feelings. Seeing the thing explode with your own eyes and being blown away by the air wave in panic are also two different feelings. When the explosion sounded, someone was already lying on the ground. They kowtowed devoutly to the pile of dried cow dung, and even planned to wait for the king to return later, secretly picking up a piece of cow dung and taking it home as an offering.
Although the Huns have a strong body, they are still in the age of ignorance, and their understanding of nature is very limited. Things that cannot be explained by their simple wisdom will be classified by them as the masterpieces of the gods. Wind, like this; rain, like this; This dark thing is just one more thing.
The high priest was invited to the big tent by the king of the military camp: "High priest, what do you think that thing is made of?"
The high priest shook his head: "I can't see it. It should be given to the Han people by the gods!" In the past, the high priest would never say such things. I don't know since when, the high priest always brought out some things that were harmful to the Han people, intentionally or unintentionally. A powerful sigh. That's why Yi Zhixie disliked him more and more and sent the high priest to the front line.
"Hahaha..." The king of Juntun laughed: "You have all been deceived by the Han people. Didn't you smell something else just now?"
Asch was the closest and suffered the most damage. At this time, two priests were stripping him naked and applying medicine to his back: "Huh? There is indeed some smell, it seems like a burning smell! It's not my back. It was burnt, but smelled like charcoal."
One of the priests also frowned: "In addition to the charcoal, there seems to be a sulfur smell. It's very light and you can't smell it if you don't pay attention."
The King of Juntun nodded: "You two are right, but there is one thing missing. That thing is just three kinds of charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter smashed into an iron shell. And I also know that it takes a minute to make that thing. Saltpeter, two parts sulfur, and seven parts charcoal.”
Before the King of Juntun finished speaking, everyone looked at him, with inexplicable surprise on their faces. They didn't understand how the King of Juntun, a guy with a bad temper, who laughed and cursed without any rules, knew the secrets of the Han people. Yes, this is completely different from the style of the Juntun King!
King Wu Jian was surprised for the shortest time: "How did you know?"
"You don't need to worry about this." The king of Juntun ignored King Wu Jian and said to the high priest: "From today on, according to this recipe, you will send your people to find three things, and we will also build this Zhentian Lei, the more the better!”
Su Ren is reading the statement in the lobby. This is a brief summary of the situation of the army that Han Qing has dealt with recently. As the supreme commander of the army, he must know the situation of his army at all times. Huo Qubing has been out for two months and has not reported anything back. The news made Su Ren very worried. Looking at the pitiful report from the cavalry battalion, Su Ren frowned.
Suddenly, an explosion came from far away. Su Ren was stunned for a moment, and quickly got up and ran outside, standing on the high wall, looking for the source of the explosion sound. Lei Quilt, Liu Jian, Li Cheng, Han Qing and others also ran out. When they came out, Su Ren and Mo Yu had already stood on the wall for a long time.
"What is this sound? Why does it sound so familiar?" Lei was supported by the parapet, eyes wide open, looking for the source of the explosion.
"It sounds very far away. It should be in the direction of the Xiongnu camp." Han Qing identified it carefully.
Liu Jian quickly looked at the grassland in the distance: "Why is there only one sound? Did the Huns also create our thing? Is it possible that there is a traitor around us?" He put one hand on the hilt of the sword and looked around cautiously. He knew that.
There were not many people there, and they were all on the wall at this time. If there was a traitor, it must be among them.
"Damn it, don't let me know who it is, and I'll get skinned and cramped later!" Lei was yelled viciously.
Su Ren stopped talking to Mo Yu and smiled: "There is only one sound, which means that it was not made by the Huns themselves. It should have been picked up from Gouziling. We must have used too much that time. There was a moment
It’s not surprising that two didn’t explode.”
"That's it!" Liu Jian then put away his sword and suddenly said: "Then the Huns can do it themselves? With our thing, you can know what's inside just by cutting it open."
"Yes!" Lei Ban nodded heavily: "The Huns have discovered our secret, so we have to change some plans. We can't wait for the Huns to create that thing to use against us. That would be inappropriate! General, from now on
When the general sees this, we should take advantage of the moment and immediately send troops to catch the Huns by surprise."
"Yes, yes, yes, we should send troops!" Everyone agreed one after another.
Han Qing glanced at Su Ren: "It's too appropriate to send troops now. Let's wait and see."
Su Ren also waved his hand and said: "Don't be excited, don't be anxious. In fact, before Mr. Mo and the others set off, the general had already expected that such a day would come. The general hoped that the Huns would produce in large quantities. Only they would devote all their thoughts to this.
, then we will win 80% of this battle."
King Juntun and King Wu Jian were very concerned about the progress of the high priest's work. King Juntun wanted to urge the high priest to speed up. No matter what the cost, he must create thunder as soon as possible, and the more the better. King Wu Jian was purely
I just want to see if the recipe from King Juntun is authentic.
In order to supervise the construction of the Sky-shaking Thunder this time, the King of Juntun specially drew a place at the back of the camp. They knew the power of that thing, so they were even more worried that the high priest would accidentally blow up the entire camp.
“Bah…” A stream of black smoke rose into the sky, emitting a choking smell that quickly spread throughout the tent. The king of Juntun poked his head out from behind a big stone and looked at it for a long time. After confirming that there was no more danger, he took a step
Turning around, he came over and said, "Is this Thunder? Why does it only smoke but not explode?"
The high priest sighed: "It's always been like this. We tried it several times and it couldn't explode at all!"
The generals, junior generals, and the generals who were hiding everywhere came out one after another, looking at the King of Juntun with puzzled faces, hoping to hear the words that shocked them again from the King of Juntun. But today they miscalculated.
Okay, this time the military commander also frowned, looked at the high priest, gritted his teeth several times, and finally chose to remain silent. (To be continued)
