Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 2: Crude Oil Breaks Huoyi

Now to attack Huo Yi, we must win it in a short time, so there is no haste for a while.

Furthermore, Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng started to attack Song Laosheng a few days ago, which is enough to show that the method of defeating Song Laosheng in history has failed.

In other words, Song Laosheng is no longer the brave and foolhardy general.

After thinking for a while, Li Zhiyun cupped his hands and said, "Aye, if you want to break through a fortified city, you must use sharp weapons."

"Zhiyun, are you planning to attack?" the heroic Li Shimin asked.

In all fairness, except for Li Xuanba, who died two years ago, the four sons under Li Yuan's knees have their own characteristics.

The eldest son, Jiancheng, was elegant and dignified, much like Li Yuan.The second son Shimin is full of heroic spirit, dashing and prudent, the fifth son Zhiyun is heroic and forthright, and he is perfect in all aspects of craftsmanship and chess.As for the fourth eldest Li Yuanji, he was so indescribable that he was abandoned by his biological mother Dou Shi as soon as he was born.

"Yes."

"It's not right." Chang Shi Peijin said: "With the sharpness of the lord's army, it is enough to take down the small Huoyi, but we will definitely suffer heavy losses. Now, Hedong Qututong has led his army here, and we can't be here. Delaying time will damage troops and horses."

Pei Ji's meaning is very clear, Huo Yi must be defeated, and they are indeed capable of forcibly breaking the city, but this will not be worth the loss.According to his intention, to lay down Huo Yi, we must use tricks, not only in a short time, but also without causing heavy losses to the army.

Of course, Li Zhiyun knew what this meant. He wanted to complain that Pei Ji had too many demands, but he didn't.As an old basic friend who has three big irons in life with Lao Li, Pei Ji's support for Li Yuan's rise is enough to establish the establishment of the Tang Dynasty in the future and his position as prime minister.

"Zhiyun naturally understands what Chang Shi said, please also listen to me in detail." Li Zhiyun's attitude was very friendly.

In the end of martial arts, Pei Ji has always been in a high position, and Li Zhiyun is very clear that he can't offend Pei Ji now.

"Please come to Wulang." Pei Ji said.

Li Zhiyun didn't talk too much nonsense, but took out a jade bottle from his sleeve.

Say good things a thousand times, it is better to do a real thing.

"Father, please see."

Immediately after, he drew out his sword, poured the black liquid from the jade bottle onto the blade of the blade, and then removed the candlestick from the side to ignite the liquid.

The flame follows the flow of the liquid and instantly attaches to the blade and burns.The pungent smell and the dazzling fire made it difficult for everyone in the tent to look away.

"This is, kerosene?" Li Shimin stared at the burning blade with wide eyes.

It is not unusual to use kerosene. It has been used in warfare at the end of the Yan Han Dynasty, but the kerosene at this time is not all-in-one.The kerosene made with vegetable oil as the main body can only cause lethality to combustibles.In other words, the things that kerosene can ignite at present are nothing but plants and trees, and they are very weak when they encounter the cold city wall.

However, the kerosene used by Li Zhiyun, so little, actually adhered to the blade and burned violently without going out.

"Yes, kerosene." Li Zhiyun replied, then inserted the blade into the ground, the kerosene fell to the ground with flames, and then everyone saw the burning flames on the ground.

Li Shimin was short of breath, and he suddenly thought of how to break the city.

Li Yuan took two steps forward and walked to Li Zhiyun, "Where did you come from?"

"Baby often communicates with people from the Western Regions, so he learned about this method of kerosene refining."

"Zhiyun, how much oil do you have?" Li Shimin asked hurriedly.

"Not much, but enough for us to take down Huo Yi." After speaking, Li Zhiyun took out the paper and handed it to Li Yuan, "This is the method of kerosene refining."

Li Yuan unceremoniously accepted the paper and patted Li Zhiyun on the shoulder with relief.

"Zhiyun, you did a great job."

Immediately following, Li Zhiyun reminded: "The power of kerosene can indeed enable us to defeat Huoyi, but Song Laosheng may not sit still. The boy thought that Song Laosheng would go out of the city to fight to the death when he saw that there was no hope of defending the city. Aye could choose to ambush his teacher. Yu Xiaodao, enticing the enemy to pursue him deeply, in this way, Song Laosheng will be defeated."

Li Shimin looked at Li Zhiyun in amazement, he suddenly felt that he had neglected this little brother.

"What Goro said, the humble position is feasible." Pei Ji said.

Li Yuan nodded and ordered: "Jiangcheng is the main force, attacking Huoyi with kerosene, forcing Song Laosheng out of the city. Shimin led the elite cavalry as a side division to cover up the southeast, and as soon as he saw Song Laosheng leaving the city, immediately annihilate him!"

"Yes!"

Li Zhiyun lowered his eyes slightly. Judging from the arrangement of Lao Li, he was obviously familiar with it. It seemed that Lao Li was not a simple person.

History is up for debate.

Song Laosheng was stationed in Huoyi and knew the burden on his shoulders. Therefore, he could not hold on to all kinds of provocations from the rebels.He knew that as long as Qu Tutong of Hedong came with his army, Li Yuan would be defeated.

However, when a huge fire broke out on the city wall, Song Laosheng panicked.

"How can the kerosene be so violent!" Song Laosheng shouted, "Quickly put out the fire!"

"General, it's useless, the water rushing up will make the flames more violent."

The soldier roared, looking at the burning arm, lying on the ground and rolling back and forth in panic. Around it, other soldiers dodged, lest the flames burn themselves.

boom!
A jar full of kerosene fell on the city head, and the flames instantly filled the air.The scorching temperature made the soldiers panic and flee.

boom!
As one after another jar was thrown by the trebuchet and smashed against the wall, the black liquid splashed, and the flames burned everything violently from point to line to surface.

Even the spears of the soldiers were burned with kerosene.

The mournful cry made the scalp tingle.

Under the attack of such fierce fire and oil, Song Laosheng planned to stick to Huo Yi's idea and disappear instantly.

In the face of such a violent kerosene, Song Laosheng was unprepared, and was almost attacked by Li Jiancheng, who was feigned to attack Huoyi.

This situation has made Song Laosheng unable to think about it.He had never heard of this kind of violent kerosene before, and if he continued to hold on to it, his soldiers would definitely be afraid because of it, resulting in poor defense and the city breaking.

Therefore, Song Laosheng chose to go out of the city to fight!

He pulled out his sword and shouted: "Open the city gate and follow the book to kill the enemy!"

At this moment, he had no choice but to make a desperate attempt to survive.

far away.

Li Zhiyun rode on the horse, slowly put down the telescopic mirror, and put it in his arms. He was not going to share this thing with others in a short time.

As soon as a horse came, Uncle Xie reported: "General, Song Laosheng has left the city!"

Li Zhiyun nodded calmly, he had already seen Huo Yi who opened the city gate from the telescopic mirror.

As a graduate of Zhongguancun College of Applied Arts and Sciences, it is reasonable to make kerosene and telescopic mirrors.

A small butterfly in the so-called North America flaps its wings, and a tornado is set off in South America.

Li Zhiyun felt that he should have lifted his wings, causing the arrogant Song Laosheng to become vigilant and trapped them here.
