Since I am Yu Huanshui

Chapter 536 Entering Meng's House

One kilometer from the tent.

Under the dead tree.

Qian Wen held the self-made black powder soil bomb and looked at it lightly.

Beside Han Xin, Fan Kui also watched curiously.

The general seems to take this very seriously.

Qian Wen looked at this inconspicuous, and even ugly, earth-gray jar, feeling deeply moved.

For such a thing, how much painstaking effort he spent, wooden paddle field, paper drying field, nitrate, sulfur, charcoal, skilled craftsmen, countless lives, etc., just made such a thing.

Not to mention the cost, the ignition rate of this line of fire alone can be low, and there is still a long way to go to make the bomb in the impression.

Don't want to fire the wire, force him to explode, it is quite obedient, and it is really sensitive.

"This thing can only be used passively now.

Saving, transporting, exploding are all problems. "Qian Wen rubbed his eyebrows sadly.

Why is this technology so difficult to climb!
"General, what is this?" Han Xin beside him asked curiously.

"Just look at it." Qian Wen said, wanting to bury this low-quality land mine under a dead tree, try its power, and let Han Xin open his eyes.

But he had just taken half a step, backed away, patted Fan Kuai on the shoulder, and handed over the inferior land mine in his hand, "Come here.

Just bury it in the earth pit, and then light the line above it with fire.

Well, run back quickly when it is lit, remember to be fast. "

Patting Fan Kuai's shoulder again, Qian Wen pulled Han Xin back tens of meters and hid under a big tree.

Fan Kui held this ugly thing at a loss, what the hell is it? The Patriarch explained it very clearly, but why did he feel like he was cheated.

"Fan Kui, hurry up, remember to light it and run away, you must be fast." Qian Wen, who was hiding behind a big tree, said loudly.

Fan Kui looked at Qian Wen's side, scratched his head, buried the ugly thing in his hand in the dug hole, stepped on it, and stomped it firmly.

Seeing Fan Kuai's iron-faced look, Qian Wen touched the sweat on his forehead, what are you cheap, I don't guarantee the quality of this thing.

Huozhe ignited the fire wire left on the ground, and Fan Kui paused strangely when he saw the sparks ignited, staring at him with bull's eyes.

"Run for me~" Qian Wen roared upon seeing this.

Fan Kui was taken aback by the shock, he obeyed the order and rushed out reflexively.

Three steps.

Just after running three steps, Fan Kui heard a muffled thunder coming from behind, followed by his ears buzzing.

Then he staggered, and ran forward a few steps.

Qian Wen heard the muffled thunder and watched with wide eyes, worrying about Tie Hanhan Fan Kui, while hoping that his hard work would not disappoint him.

In fact, in the secret letter, the effect of land mines has been clearly written, I just want to see it with my own eyes, so I can rest assured.

Dust was everywhere, and the dead wood swayed and half fell with a creak, swaying there.

A crater the size of a washbasin appeared somewhere, the crater was not deep and dark, with a little smoke and a pungent smell of gunpowder smoke.

Xiao Pao passed by Fan Kui, and kicked his ass, "You're fucking disobedient, aren't you, what the hell is making you run away.

If you're missing an arm or a leg, I'm not responsible for finding a woman for you. "

Fan Kui innocently covered his buttocks, looked at his ears, they were still humming.

"General, Fan Kui is injured." Han Xin walked around Fan Kui and saw blood.

Qian Wen hurriedly turned his head to look, heaved a sigh of relief, the scratches and skin injuries from the collapsed stones.

If he lost a general like this, who would he cry to?

He kicked Fan Kui hard again, "Go back and run until I can't run with the weight on my back, don't worry at all."

Throwing aside Fan Kui who was pretending to be innocent with his eyes wide open, Qian Wen looked again at the achievement of Land Lei.

Looking at the dark crater, he rubbed his nose, except for the strong smell of gunpowder smoke and the inconvenience of transportation, the power is still acceptable.

At least surprise is a good weapon, but...

"Sigh, there is a long way to go." Qian Wen sighed.

This thing is just mining for the time being, cracking a stone. It is too cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive to actually use it in the military. It is not as good as the red-clothed cannon, which can defend a city.

When will his troops be equipped with red cannons?

"General, a sharp weapon for siege." Han Xin immediately thought of something. He didn't expect that such an ugly thing would have so much power.

"This thing is too easy to explode, and it's not easy to preserve. The battlefield changes rapidly, so it's too difficult to use." Qian Wen shook his head.

Fan Kui touched the blood on his back and looked at the big pit with lingering fear. If he had been running a few steps slower just now, he would have been lying down instead of standing.

Han Xin smiled confidently when he heard the words, "How to use something depends on the person, but I don't think the flaws can cover up the advantages."

Qian Wen knew what Han Xin meant, but the explosive was a bit too high for his expectations, and he was a little bit behind. He also knew that the land mine was missing, and it was also a sharp weapon, a trump card.

"General, what is this? It's like thunder in the sky." Fan Kui asked.

In the secret letter, he was also asked what the name of this thing should be. Qian Wen thought about it, but was too lazy to name it. "This is the product of our scientific research workshop, explosives."

Han Xin has been wandering, thinking about how to use this thing in his army, how to win with this thing on the battlefield.

A few days later, the army went north again, and confronted the cavalry of the Huns several times in the past few days.

However, Qian Wen's troops were mainly training troops, and they didn't collide with the opponent's large troops on a large scale. They just used their advantages to eat up the opponent's small troops and scattered tribes.

The Huns set traps several times, but he dodged them in advance, which made the Hun general fly into a rage.

"General, I will report from the rear. General Meng will have a joint discussion with the army in a week." Han Xin reported.

Qian Wen looked away from the map and stretched his waist, "The Huns bit us too tightly, didn't they just take some of his livestock, and use tens of thousands of people to hunt us down?
They couldn't finish it. "

Han Xin smiled, "Now the Huns hate us to the bone, and there is less looting on the frontier, and one trap after another is pointing at us.

Should we take advantage of the collegiality in the army to retreat, the soldiers are also tired from the continuous raids. "

"Is there anything to say about this collegial meeting?" Qian Wen asked.

Because of Qian Wen's repeated provocations, he invaded the territory of the Xiongnu, wiped out the tribe, and several generals fell because of him. The atmosphere on both sides became more and more tense.

"I didn't say anything, but General Meng mentioned his name. General, you must go back." Han Xin said.

Qian Wen rubbed his nose, this period of time is indeed a little too much, Meng Tian came to the frontier to repel the looting of the Huns, and then guard the frontier.

But now that he is added, Qian Wen is more or less indulgent in training his subordinates and soldiers in order to adapt to the rapid changes on the battlefield. He plundered the tribe of the Huns, which made both sides nervous.

Meng Tian praised his behavior, but it was not good for Daqin from the overall situation.

"An order from the whole army. The front army has changed to the rear army. Scouts, let me release the Falcon. Don't go home. Go home, and you will be bitten. I'm not happy." Qian Wen ordered.

Han Xin clasped his fists to accept the order, and went down to pass on the order.

Soon, the Xiongnu cavalry, who had been biting Qian Wen's troops tightly, found that the Mengjia army, who had looted their tribe and was regarded as a devil by them, had left.

The Xiongnu master in charge of the encirclement and suppression thought that Qian Wen and the others were going to use some tricks, and issued orders from the big tent again and again.

Two days, it took Qian Wen and the others two days to get rid of the hyena-like Huns cavalry.

When Qian Wen and the others returned to the Mengjia Army's garrison, the 5000 members of the entire army had been tense until they relaxed. They jumped repeatedly between the borders of the Great Qin and the borders of the Huns, especially against the Huns, a highly mobile nomadic people. Qian Wen Even in self-confidence, I dare not relax for a moment.

The troops were stationed outside the city, and Qian Wen entered the city with his personal guard battalion.

I went to find Meng Tian, ​​but he was not there. Unfortunately, Meng Tian went to inspect the army today.

He went back to his mansion in the city and had a good night's sleep. During the war, those who live in the wind and sleep in the open have to be careful when sleeping.

After a sweet dream, after waking up, I went to inspect the camp first, and saw that the soldiers did not slacken their training, so they went to the general's mansion with satisfaction.

"Little brother."

When he saw Meng Tian, ​​he was looking at the report on repairing the Great Wall that was submitted recently.

Meng Tian is not only responsible for guarding against the Huns, but also responsible for the construction and progress of the Great Wall.

"Big brother."

Now Qian Wen doesn't mention Big Brother Meng, and just calls him Big Brother, but he has never accepted the name Meng Yi.

"Well, wait for me." Meng Tian nodded with him, and continued to look down at the bamboo slips in his hand about the construction of the Great Wall.

Two quarters of an hour passed, Meng Tian raised his head again.

He stretched his waist, looked at Qian Wen and smiled, "I heard that you have killed several Hun cavalry this month?"

"Yes, Han Xin should have sorted out the marching report during this period, and it should have been submitted and reported by now." Qian Wen said solemnly.

"Well, it's here." Meng Tian picked up a parchment roll in his hand, "The loss is not small."

"Well, they are all untrained young men, slaves, it's inevitable." Qian Wen didn't sigh, and he didn't command soldiers. He had been numb and used to it after several months of fighting.

He will feel sorry for his subordinates, but he will not hold back his troops because of the loss of troops.

Meng Tian, ​​who was rich in experience, pointed out the problems that occurred during his march and the process that could be avoided, and passed on his years of experience in leading troops in battle.

Qian Wen is studying hard.

Compared with Meng Tian, ​​who has been fighting all his life, his achievements in just a few months are really a drop in the bucket, and he is hard to be proud of.

After carefully absorbing some suggestions given by Meng Tian based on their marching report, after the military talk, the two talked about family matters.

"I'm going back to Xianyang." Meng Tian said.

"Why do you want to go back to Xianyang all of a sudden?" Hearing this news, Qian Wen looked at Meng Tian with complicated and deep eyes.

He and Meng Tian came to the frontier for a purpose, and now that the plan has been preliminarily accomplished, Meng Tian's departure will do him no harm.

Without Meng Tian, ​​as a direct descendant of the Meng family on the bright side, he can slowly figure out the Meng family's army.

But from the emotional point of view during this period, Qian Wen didn't want Meng Tian to return to Xianyang. Now Xianyang has become a vortex that cannibalize people. It is really not a good time for Meng Tian to go back at this time.

"Your Majesty recalls.

I want to ask you whether to return to Xianyang with me after the collegial meeting, or stay here. "Meng Tian looked at Qian Wen.

Go back or stay?
Is there any need to think about it, it must be staying, not to mention that his [-] troops cannot be lost, and how can he stop when his plan has already started, besides, is Xianyang a place where people can stay?
The Juxian Hall was targeted by Li Si, and countless Confucian scholars from the six countries were imprisoned. At the same time, Tu An assassinated Qin Huang. Although he failed, the sick Qin Huang now looks like an assassin to everyone. , people panic, he went back to Xianyang, except for the disadvantages, there is no benefit at all, don't go back!
"I stay in the army." Qian Wen said.

Meng Tian nodded, "Alright, Xianyang is in a lot of chaos now, it's better to stay in the army."

"Brother, you have returned to Xianyang, what about my subordinates?"

One must know that his army is chartered. Now that Meng Tian is gone, can he still be so free, obeying the instructions and not listening to the announcement?
Enjoying the privilege, but not having the privilege, is really uncomfortable.

"Don't worry about that, I will accept you as a partial general before I leave, and lead this army justifiably.

When I return to Xianyang, I will report to Your Majesty your achievements in the past few months. I am asking my subordinates in the army to help you a lot. As long as there are no mistakes in the frontier, General You should still have hope in a few months.

And I'm still the general of the Meng family army, it doesn't matter if I'm here or not.

Brother, you still have a strong merchant spirit.

They all know that you are a direct descendant of the Meng family, what is the difference between you and going home.

But in this way, you can't do without the Meng family army, so you have to think about it. "Meng Tian didn't know about Qian Wen's little thoughts, shook his head, and looked at Qian Wen meaningfully.

For Qian Wen's willingness to stay in the Meng Family Army, he is very happy in his heart. In his opinion, any privileged troops are troops protecting the Great Qin, his Meng Family Army's troops, and the Meng Family will sooner or later be in charge of the Meng Family Army.

Besides, judging from the marching reports in the past few months, having this highly mobile unit is very beneficial to guard against the Huns on the frontier, and the Huns dare not be so unscrupulous when they go north again.

"Big Brother~" Qian Wen cupped his fists at Meng Yi.

Thousands of words merged into one big brother.

He still succumbs to Meng Tian's sugar-coated cannonballs, it's really delicious.

"Hahaha~" Meng Tian laughed heartily, and patted Qian Wen's shoulder heavily, "Little brother, when Xianyang calms down, elder brother will take you to the ancestral hall to meet your father and grandfather."

After such a long time, the little brother finally changed his mind, which made Meng Yi laugh heartily, "Father, I finally found my little brother!"

"Brother, it's best to be careful when you go back to Xianyang this time." Qian Wen said something in his words.

Xianyang just sent a secret letter some time ago, Qin Huang's health is almost dying, and he keeps urging the completion of the imperial mausoleum, and there is no trace of the elixir, Meng Tian's life and death are unpredictable when he returns this time.

Historically, Meng Tian died in the whirlpool.

As the top dignitary in Great Qin, Meng Tian certainly knew what Qian Wen was talking about, he laughed, "Brother, I haven't seen anything before, with His Majesty here, Great Qin cannot be messed up, and Xianyang cannot be messed up."

Qian Wen said silently, "I'm afraid Qin Huang is gone." '

A few days later, Meng Tian explained everything in the army under the joint discussion in the army, and also stood up for Qian Wen, and returned to Xianyang.

And Qian Wen, because of his identity as a direct descendant of the Meng family, and the brilliant achievements of the past few months, is more at home in the Meng family army than when Meng Tian was there.

After Meng Tian left, Qian Wen seldom led troops to harass the border of the Huns. Now he is busy with 30 Mengjia troops, wandering among the generals in the army.

Qian Wenquan let Han Xin lead his five thousand troops.

At the same time, Qian Wen sent a secret letter to hoard a large amount of explosives in Xianyang.

A few days later, an unexpected visitor came to Qian Wen's tent.

Seeing the visitor brought in by his subordinates, Qian Wen frowned, "Cui Wenzi?"

"General Qian, long time no see." The visitor, Cui Wenzi, was as usual, unrestrained, with a gourd of wine on his waist.
