Chapter 222: Tubo's Blood and Tears (1)

Li Er looked at Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and a number of Dukes in front of him and said, "How about I sending 300,000 troops to reinforce Yuchi Jinde?"

"No!" Changsun Wuji said, "If you send 300,000 troops and the army is in a vast way, let alone whether you can arrive in time. Even if you send 300,000 troops, it will definitely cause turmoil among the people."

Fang Xuanling heard it in his ears. What he said was that sending troops was a mistake at the beginning, and now he can only wait and see what happened.

"Your Majesty!" Cheng Yaojin said, "You can draw troops from the Guard Mansion."

Cheng Yaojin means to draw from the government soldiers. The government soldiers are soldiers among the soldiers. Anyway, they have to come to fight and don’t have to take them out. Cheng Yaojin is really worried about Gu Qing.

"Your Majesty!" Changsun Wuji continued, "Even if the troops in the palace are drawn, they can only be transferred within 100,000 at most."

"What do you mean by Changsun Wuji!" Cheng Yaojin asked with a short breath, "This is not OK, that is not OK! Do you want to watch that boy Yuchi Gong and Gu Qing die in Tubo?"

"I didn't say that." Changsun Wuji remained silent.

"I didn't say it, that's what you mean in your heart." Cheng Yaojin said loudly.

"Shut up!" Li Er shouted to Cheng Yaojin.

Changsun Wuji was right. The fastest speed was to recruit only 100,000 soldiers from the palace. Fang Xuanling didn't say anything, just stood aside and had no expression on his face.

Changsun Wuji looked at Fang Xuanling and was surprised, why did Fang Xuanling speak for Gu Qing again at this time?

Li Er reluctantly dispatched a 100,000 army to Tubo. The army of 100,000 people set out from Chang'an. The one who led the troops was from the Ministry of War. This person was the side branch of the Changsun family, Changsun Kong.

After walking for half a day, Changsun Kong stopped his marching and said, "Stop on the spot! March tomorrow."

"General, we have only been marching for half a day." The soldier was puzzled.

"What? Are you or me who leads the troops?" Changsun Kong said sternly, "If I say I will station you!"

The army had to station. During the few days of marching, the army stopped and stopped. Changsun Kong had to repair it for half a day after walking a few miles. The repair time would take longer to be marching.

People in Chang'an have different hearts. The Tubo Potala Palace is in full swing. Gu Qing looked at a simple firework with incendiary bombs set off in the cannon and was ready to test the fire.

Tang Xuanzang brought Bian Ji to Gu Qing's side, "Donor Gu, I apologize to you for Bian Ji's actions that day."

"No need." Gu Qing said, saying to the soldiers beside him, "Light the line of fire and let it go!"

The soldiers ignited the fire line in response, and then stepped back step by step. Gu Qing watched the fire line burning into a box-sized pyrotechnic tube. The large fire line burned into the barrel, and then ignited more than ten small fire lines. The small fire line burned into the small grids in the box.

White smoke emerged from the back.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

With several muffled sounds, sixteen incendiary bombs shot out from the huge fireworks, and sparks with a radius of three meters were blown out ten meters away. The flames fell on the grass for a long time and could not be extinguished.

Gu Qing waved the pungent smoke with his hand, "The range is still not enough, just a little further."

"What is range?" Tang Xuanzang was puzzled, "Does Gu Donor want to use this to kill someone?"

"Monkey Xuanzang, don't always say that killing people, that's a war!" Gu Qing calculated the amount of gunpowder and the diameter of the pyrotechnic tube in his mind. Can he improve it? "Don't bother me, I'm very busy."

Tang Xuanzang stood there watching Gu Qing study the fireworks and shook his head and sighed, walking away step by step. When he was traveling west, he was still peaceful when he came to Tubo, but the second time he came was war.

Gu Qing thought about it and decided to design the diameter of the pyrotechnic tube to be smaller. If there is too much gunpowder, it will explode. He can only make the size of the incendiary bomb smaller, the number is larger, and the range can also be increased.

Outside the Potala Palace, soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were constantly experimenting with new firearms. The incendiary bombs with phosphorus were much more powerful. For Gu Qing, some of the previous incendiary bombs were just not completely burned, and gasoline was not fully ignited. After adding phosphorus, they could be fully ignited, and the detonation power of the explosives was much more powerful.

"Mr. Gu." Wang Jin stepped forward and said, "The manpower is ready. We have caught thousands of people to make new firearms."

Gu Qing thoughtfully said, "Make a grenade first, take your time! I need to improve this firework launcher."

"Yes!" Wang Jin nodded and left.

Wang Jin in the army listened to Gu Qing's words the most. According to Li Er's opinion, Gu Qing said that the largest surveillance in the entire Firearm Bureau was just used to monitor Gu Qing to ensure that the firearms did not flow out.

Cheng Chumo ate a roast lamb leg and walked to see Gu Qing modifying the pyrotechnic tube, "Gu Qing, after making the firearm, why don't you go back first."

Stop the action in his hand Gu Qing looked at Cheng Chumo.

"It's too dangerous. This must be a tough battle. You have no power to tie a chicken, it's too dangerous." Cheng Chumo said.

Gu Qing smiled and looked at the fireworks again, "Don't worry, I will run away first when the situation is not good. I want to make cannons, but cannons are OK to attack the city, but they seem very heavy when they are intersecting, and it is time-consuming and laborious to build."

Cheng Chu looked at Gu Qing thoughtfully, hoping that Gu Qing could go back safely and threw away half of the lamb leg, "Okay, if there is something wrong, I will take you out."

A few months later, Songtsen Gampo finally came to Tubo with the joint army from the Middle East.

As soon as the Great Cannibal entered the territory of Tubo, they burned, killed and looted the Tubo people. Songtsen Gampo questioned the leading prince of Daqi, "What are you doing?"

The mysterious man translated Songtsen Gampo's question to Prince Dashi.

Prince Dashi said a few words in Dashi's words, and Songtsen Gampo asked the mysterious man, "What did he say."

"He said that Dashi came from all the way, and Tubo always had to provide something to reward them." The mysterious man whispered.

Songtsen Gampo watched his Tubo people being bullied by the coalition forces in the Middle East, and said loudly, "I don't need your assistance anymore, please go back."

The mysterious man continued to translate Songtsen Gampo's words.

The prince of Dashi sneered and said a few words to the warriors beside him. Several warriors stepped forward and took down Songtsen Gampo.

"What are you doing!" Songtsen Gampo roared.

The prince's smile on his face became stronger and stronger, and he allowed the warriors of his country to plunder and kill them in Tubo.

The mysterious man said to Songtsen Gampo, "This is the difference between a strong country and a weak country. Do you really think they will help for nothing? What they really covet is your wealthy plateau."
