Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 302 The Might of Thunder!

Seeing Yue Shiyi took out the bamboo tube, Zhang Yi couldn't help but backed away.

Although each bamboo tube was carefully manufactured by Zhangjiazhuang sergeants who strictly controlled the dosage, Zhang Yi knew very well that gunpowder was not something that could be guaranteed safe with only one bamboo tube.

A slight vibration, or an accidental impact, is entirely possible to cause detonation.

Not only that, in order to pursue the power of the explosion, Wang Laowu and the others even added a lot of broken iron into it, but once an explosion occurs, people and everything within a radius of 15 meters will definitely be a disaster.

"Is this the Nine Heavens God's Punishment you're talking about?" Niu Jinda looked at Yue Yi with a cold face, and thought it was rare just now, but when he saw the real thing, the excitement that was originally there was gone in an instant. any expectations.

After receiving the bamboo tube handed over by Yue [-]th, he turned it over and over a few times, but found nothing unusual. Except for the long twist, he felt that it was something like a firecracker to scare people. .

As the old saying goes, firecrackers bid farewell to the old year, and gongs and drums welcome the new year.

According to historical records, the origin of burning firecrackers can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, which means a new year.It's just that firecrackers are often burned with some bamboo branches, and the sound produced is within the acceptable range of people.

But obviously the bamboo tubes that came here on the eleventh day of the month were much bigger. In Niu Jinda's view, since they were bigger, the sound would naturally be louder.As for the so-called Nine Heavens God's Punishment on the eleventh day of the month, it is probably the result of being too loud and being infinitely mythical.

Originally in a good mood, Niu Jinda started joking while talking, and said with a smile: "At first I thought it was some magical weapon, but it turned out to be a bigger firecracker!"

Niu Jinda obviously said these words to Yue Eleven, and obviously felt that Yue Eleven was a bit too fussy.

However, he also had to admit that in the battle, especially against the Turkic people, the huge sound after a big firecracker exploded obviously has a natural deterrent effect on flattery.

He doesn't know if these two blows can kill the enemy in the gallop of thousands of horses, but it is definitely obvious that the Turkic horses caused a commotion.

"If it was just firecrackers, do you think I would hand them over to you so carefully?" Yue Eleven said coldly.

After being familiar with the power of this kind of divine punishment, Yue Eleven definitely placed high hopes on this kind of large firecrackers.Whether it's the sound or the splash from the explosion, they are undoubtedly the same as the divine thunder in the sky.

If he could make it according to the recipe without himself, Yue Shigou thought it was really the real Jiuxiaoshenlei.

Although Yue Eleven is no longer Li Er's personal bodyguard, Niu Jinda still has no intention of underestimating him.

You know, Yue Eleven's identity is actually a signboard. Although it doesn't represent Li Er now, it represents a rather heavy personal force, and he is so careful and prudent. Is there really any mystery?
Zhang Yi was so frightened that he backed up again and again, not only him, Tang Peng also backed up a few steps after seeing Zhang Yi's expression.

"Lizi, is that thing really the legendary Nine Heavens God's Punishment?" Tang Peng pulled Zhang Yi's arm and asked in a low voice.

"That's natural!" Zhang Yi nodded, and seeing that Niu Jinda was also serious, he stepped forward and pointed to the bamboo pipe: "Since General Niu doesn't believe it, why don't we experiment and see how big it is?" How powerful is it?"

Soon, Zhang Yi's proposal was approved by everyone.

After all, things like gods and ghosts are generally just storytellers who exist on the street, or understanding of folk stories. Once such a magical thing appears in the future, it is definitely a fool not to be tempted. .

"General Niu, the last general is also very curious, why don't you let the last general try?" Xue Wanren also understood Niu Jinda's thoughts in an instant. Isn't firecrackers invented in the Han Dynasty to drive away fierce beasts?
War horses are not fierce beasts, but they are more afraid of thunder. It can even be said that all animals in the world are very afraid of thunder.It is precisely because of this fear that he believes that once this large firecracker is fired, it will undoubtedly have a huge effect on the horses and cavalry in the battlefield.

He even felt that it might not only cause disturbances to the enemy army, but would directly scare the horses and run around. Once such a situation occurs, don't talk about fighting, it is estimated that in the enemy's team, I don't know how many Turkic barbarians will Trampled to death by the horse's hooves.

Of course, this will all depend on how loud the firecrackers can be, and it won't help much if they're just a little louder than usual.

Thinking of this, Xue Wanren even waved to the brothers below, motioning for one of the veterans to bring a war horse over to test its might.

"General Xue, don't do it!" Zhang Yi hastened to stop him. Today's war horses are precious to Shuofang City. If a horse is blown to death just to test its power, it would be a loss.

While stopping Xue Wanren, Zhang Yi hurriedly cupped his hands at Niu Jinda and said, "General Niu, this thing is powerful. If you really want to test its power, I think it's better for us to go down to the fortress. How about finding an open place outside to test it? In the fortress If Zhong Wan causes casualties, even the lower officials will die!"

Niu Jinda was a little uncertain, Zhang Yi and Yue Shiyi's tense expressions made him a little scrupulous, although Zhang Yi was young, he was very mysterious, and the most important thing was that Zhang Yi had been known for his magic since he arrived in Lingnan.

The attitude of Yue Shiyi undoubtedly confirmed the authenticity of Zhang Yi's words, but he couldn't understand why a small firecracker, even if it was a little bigger, could make the two of them so nervous.

"General, why don't you send an old soldier to try it outside the fort?" Tang Peng was still far away, standing beside Zhang Yi and said, "Anyway, it's just to test the power, it doesn't matter if it's far or close. !"

Niu Jinda thought for a while, and finally nodded.The fort is not big. If the sound is really loud, the test inside the fort must be able to sound the sergeant inside. If the test is outside the fort, there will be no such worries.

Immediately Niu Jinda said to Xue Wanren: "That's fine, let's test it outside the fort! But you still have to lead one of the horses!"

Seeing Niu Jinda nod his head, Xue Wanren immediately ordered an old soldier to lead a war horse outside the fort, and he himself had already taken the large firecracker in Niu Jinda's hand, laughed at several people, and went down the steps of the fort up the tower.
