Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2243 Explosion

Autumn nights are cool.

The bonfire of the Tang army camp was about to go out, and white smoke billowed not far away.

After the gopher found the place where Tang Jun stored the gunpowder, he frowned, feeling that things were a little difficult.

In other places, although the Tang army was careless, here, they sent soldiers and horses to guard them heavily.

Thinking about it, even if Tang Jun knew that they would be able to capture Jinsha City in one fell swoop tomorrow, they did not relax in the slightest in guarding the gunpowder.

Mahadori's strategy only allowed the gophers to easily enter the Tang army's barracks, but it was by no means an easy task to destroy the Tang army's gunpowder.

However, the gopher was not in a hurry, he was waiting.

He knew that these soldiers of the Tang Army had to take turns to be on duty. When they changed shifts, he might have a little time to rush in, as long as he had a little time to rush in.

As midnight approached, the soldiers on duty were already a little sleepy, many of them were yawning, and more people were counting the time to see when the shift replacement would arrive.

And they didn't have to wait long.

Soon, they saw the changing team walking towards them.

After seeing these people, the officers and men of the Tang army on duty immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Before those people came over, they had already walked towards their respective camps. From their point of view, the replacements had already arrived. Nothing can happen.

So, they can leave now.

But just as they were leaving and before the soldiers on shift approached, a black shadow suddenly rushed towards the place where the gunpowder was stored.

The black shadow was very fast, and very short, it looked like a small animal jumped into it.

After seeing this, the soldiers who were changing shifts thought they were dazzled.

"Did something run into it just now?"

"I saw it too, as if something really ran in."

"Like an animal?"

"No, it's a person, it's not good, let's go..."

Finally, someone reacted, and they hurried to the place where the gunpowder was stored, but when they ran to the place where the gunpowder was stored, a small man suddenly rushed out of it.

The little man's eyes rolled around, resembling the eyes of a mouse.

After he rushed out, he was about to run away immediately.

But at this time Tang Jun has already rushed, where is he allowed to escape?

Even if he is small in size and flexible in movement, if he wants to escape, it is by no means an easy task.

Tang Jun immediately drew his sword, blocking his retreat, and then rushed directly over.

Before the gopher had time to react, it had already been cut into several pieces by Tang Jun's big knife, dripping with blood, which was inexplicably pungent in this autumn night.

The generals of the Tang army breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the place where the gunpowder was stored suddenly exploded.

"not good……"

The explosion was very loud and powerful. The soldiers of the Tang army were some distance away from the place where the gunpowder was stored, but when the explosion happened, they felt a strong force coming and washed them away.

And after they were hit by a force, they felt some pain, but soon, the pain disappeared again, and they didn't know anything.

The explosion continued, and the entire Tang Army camp was awakened from sleep.

"What's going on, what happened?"

"Not good, not good……"

Li Ke, king of Shu, was resting, and he was awakened by the sound of the explosion, and when he heard the sound, his heart suddenly jumped.

He rushed out of the tent like crazy, and then he saw the place where the gunpowder was stored, there was a rumbling sound, and there was still a big fire.

The fire is raging.

"What's going on, what's going on here?"

Li Ke, King of Shu, asked angrily, and soon, some soldiers rushed over: "My lord, something happened. Tuyuhun sent a villain to destroy our gunpowder."

Li Ke naturally knew that the gunpowder was destroyed, and he also guessed that it was Tuyuhun who did it, but what he didn't understand was that the gunpowder was guarded by heavy soldiers, how could a Tuyuhun man be allowed to run in and tamper with it?

"What's the matter, the man who guards the powder?"

"The villain from Tuyuhun rushed in during the shift change. During the shift change, before the others came, those on duty left. It was only a short period of time. That villain rushed in at this time... ..."

The soldier told Li Ke about the situation, and Li Ke was furious after hearing it.

"Come here, give me military law to deal with those who have changed shifts."

Because of those people, their gunpowder in Tang Dynasty is gone. These people are damned. Now that the explosion is still going on, those gunpowder probably won’t exist anymore. Even if they want to rush in to rescue them now, they can’t.

This is not a fire, this is an explosion.

After Li Ke's order was issued, the soldiers on duty were killed immediately. They were wronged, but it was indeed their negligence that caused the gunpowder to be destroyed.

At this time, not only Li Ke hated them, but even the rest of the Tang army hated them. Without gunpowder, would they be able to capture Jinsha City tomorrow?
Inside Jinsha City, Tuyuhun Barracks.

Mahadoli has never rested. What he did tonight is related to the life and death of their Tuyuhun. If they win, they will be able to keep the Sands City. If the Sands City is kept, Tuyuhun will be kept.

Time is slow, and the autumn wind outside is whistling non-stop.

Mahadoli's heart was uneasy, which was simply a kind of torment for him.

He no longer knew how long he had been waiting.

And at this moment, there was a loud noise in the distance, followed by various loud noises.

"Successful?" Mahadoli stood up excitedly. This was the sound of the cannon exploding. Doesn't it mean that they succeeded if the explosion happened at this time?
Mahadori rushed out in a hurry. He came to the tower and looked in the direction of the Tang Army's barracks. Soon, he saw the Tang Army's barracks with flames rising into the sky, and it was already at this time. Still going on.

After seeing these, Mahadoli finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems to have really succeeded."

"Yes, General, we succeeded. Now that Tang's gunpowder has been destroyed, it will not be easy for them to capture Jinsha City."

"Yes, yes, Datang is nothing more than that, hehe..."

The success tonight made them disdain Datang, but Mahadori was still very cautious, saying: "Even if the Tang army has no gunpowder, their ability to attack the city is still very strong, and now Datang is against you. We must hate it to the core, tomorrow morning, they may fight to the death, let the soldiers have a good rest, tomorrow no matter what, we must defend the Sands City."

"Here!"
