After traveling through time, I took command and led the troops to conquer the mountains and rivers.

Chapter 476 Too Far From Victory

Lin Gongxun turned around and saw Li Chang and a group of soldiers eager to try.

"What are they holding?"

"Throw the thunder!"

Yu Jia was very proud.

Unlike torpedoes that require triggering mechanisms, she incorporated the wisdom of the martyrs into it and made a simple mine.

It will explode as long as it is hit by gravity.

"Throw a thunder? How do you use it?"

Lin Gongxun wanted to take one and have a look, but Yu Jia directly refused.

"General Lin, just wait and see!"

Li Chang also laughed “Hehe”.

"General Lin, today I will show you how this mine can blow the Tartars into mud!"

He took the lead and threw grenades at the Tatars who were busy attacking the city below the city wall.

With a "bang", the thunder bomb exploded on the ground, immediately hitting two Tatars.

Then the rest of the soldiers rushed to throw grenades, and bright flowers bloomed on the ground.

In fact, the power of this thunder is not very great.

At most two people can be hit at one time.

Yu Jia naturally has concerns in this regard.

As a result, after seeing the power of thunder, the Tatars fled in all directions.

Everyone was immersed in joy when Gousheng ran over in a panic.

"General, it's bad! The Tartars have blown up our military camp!"

"what?"

Yu Jia started coughing repeatedly.

"what happened?"

Not to mention how clever the Tatars were, to be able to invent such a powerful explosive.

They brought so much explosives?
The northern desert is covered with grasslands. How do they get the materials?

The materials needed for these explosives are only available in the Great Zhou and the Uighurs.

Could it be that Mu Shihe is hooking up with Mu Zhaling again?
She had no time to think and could only withdraw troops to guard the Jizhou military camp.

After the Great Zhou soldiers drove away the Tatars around the military camp, Yu Jia sat in the simple tent in silence.

"We'll build the yard next spring."

Lin Gongxun comforted her, "Build something bigger than this!"

Even Gousheng and Li Chang thought that she was sad about what happened in the courtyard.

Yu Jia shook his head, "How many soldiers were lost this time?"

Although the Tatars were driven away, their explosives caused countless casualties among the soldiers of the Great Zhou.

Gousheng didn't dare to make a sound.

Yu Jia then realized the seriousness of the matter.

She closed her eyes, and when she opened them she was already filled with murderous intent.

"Gousheng, tell me about Zheng Chuanqi."

Gousheng took the order and left the tent, and Lin Gongxun sat down next to Yu Jia.

He realized the seriousness of the matter.

Affected by the atmosphere, Li Chang was filled with murderous intent.

"Damn Tartars."

"General, you called me?"

Zheng Chuanqi came into the tent and bowed.

Yu Jia stared at him intently, thinking about the information he had seen before.

"Old Zheng, what is your relationship with Liang Shuqi?"

The panic in Zheng Chuanqi's eyes flashed away, and then returned to normal in an instant.

"General, are you asking about the former Minister of War?"

"Why should we care about him? He is a third-rank official."

Yu Jia laughed, "So I was wrong?"

"Old Zheng, Old Zheng, you said before that all your family members died at the hands of the Tartars. Is that true or did you make it up?"

Zheng Chuanqi was immediately furious, "General, how could you not believe me?"

"It's not that I don't want to believe you, it's what you did that betrayed you."

Yu Jia supported Lin Gongxun's shoulders and stood up.

"I thought you were talented but not appreciated, so I gave you a chance."

"In the end, you turned out to be the one the Emperor was spying on me."

"Oh, I think you're talking about the former crown prince's people."

Yu Jia showed an aggressive attitude and walked towards Zheng Chuanqi.

"You and Liang Shuqi are both the former crown prince's men. After the former crown prince died, you naturally followed the emperor to serve."

"No wonder the emperor suspected everyone but me." "I originally thought the emperor trusted me, but who knew he actually had spies in the Jizhou military camp."

"I'm just asking you, is it true?"

After these words, Zheng Chuanqi was speechless.

"The general is right. I am the emperor's man."

"Also convey some news to the Emperor."

He lowered his head and looked at Yu Jia seriously, "But I didn't say anything bad about the general."

"Oh? You didn't say anything bad about me."

Yu Jia signaled Li Chang to get ready.

"But you provided the secret recipe and raw materials of explosives to He Laixiu!"

With a loud "boom", Zheng Chuanqi's head seemed to be blown up.

"General, you."

What he wants to say is, how do you know.

But he couldn't say it.

He looked at his boss who was determined to promote him and felt a little guilty.

And a little annoyed.

In an instant, the man actually shed tears.

He knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

"General, it's my fault."

"I am greedy for money, I did something wrong!"

Yu Jia felt a little tired, and her body gradually softened.

Suddenly, she fell into a warm embrace.

The embrace gave her strength, and she took a deep breath and straightened herself up.

"He Laixiu bribed you with money?"

Zheng Chuanqi did not deny it.

He then told the truth.

It turned out that he was a branch of Liang Shuqi, and this branch was very distant.

Those far away can’t even have the surname Liang.

He grew up in a border area and his parents were killed by the Tartars.

Before their family was killed, they all worked for Liang Shuqi.

Or perhaps it means working for Li Yansheng.

Even so, their lives were very difficult.

He can only survive on the meager rewards from his superiors.

Recently, Zheng Chuanqi met a girl outside and began to think about having a child.

The worst of the three unfilial acts is to have no descendants. He cannot let the incense be cut off here.

But having a child requires money. How can you do it without money?

At this time He Laixiu appeared.

He promised to give Zheng Chuanqi a large sum of money, which Zheng Chuanqi had never seen in his life.

Zheng Chuanqi has been hesitating.

It was not until Yu Jia refused his experiment with large explosives weapons countless times that he finally made up his mind.

He wanted to continue completing the work he had not completed in the Jizhou military camp.

In this way, he agreed to He Laixiu's deal.

And gave the formula and raw materials of large explosives to He Laixiu.

"This large explosive is just an enlarged version of a mine, right?"

It is because of this that Yu Jia determined that Zheng Chuanqi was a traitor.

Zheng Chuanqi nodded.

Yu Jia sighed and let Lin Gongxun help her sit on the chair.

"Zheng Chuanqi, you are confused."

"We have a war to fight with the Tatars after all."

"After the battle, there will be peace and prosperity."

"Then you can apply to leave the Jizhou military camp."

"There will be some subsidies at that time."

"You're too impatient."

Zheng Chuanqi suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining.

"General, I am just a human being, an ordinary person."

"Everyone has desires. I want to start a family and live an ordinary life."

"I know we have a war to fight with the Tatars."

"But I don't have the confidence to defeat the Tatars."

"You are a general, so you are naturally thinking about victory, but victory is too far away from us soldiers!"
