Chapter 315 The Arrogant Kid

Even though Qu Tutong had made some psychological preparations, he was still shocked by the fierce burning flame of gasoline.When the flaming crossbow guns of the eight-ox crossbow hit the gasoline jars, the flames seemed to be erupting from the ground.The orange-red flame rose three feet high, followed by billowing thick smoke.A few hundred steps away, Qu Tutong still clearly felt the scorching heat wave.

"Boy, did you go to hell? Otherwise, how could such a thing exist!" Qu Tutong, who had been a general for a lifetime, of course knew what this kind of thing that could burn violently meant.The flames in front of his eyes were still burning, he just looked at them carefully.That place is full of stones, not even a straw stick.Now this thing is burning on the stone. Could it be said that this thing can ignite the stone?

"What you see is only the primary product. If you add something, the combustion will be more durable and intense. Now let's talk about the shortcomings of this thing." Yun Hao asked someone to take a jar of gasoline, scooped some out and poured it on the ground.

The strong smell of gasoline immediately permeated the air, and Qu Tutong shivered in distress.There is no reason to waste such a good thing.Just when he wanted to reprimand Yun Hao, he said "Huh".

Those things called gasoline are disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.Rubbing his eyes and looking carefully, there really wasn't a single bit of it gone.Not even a trace was left, as if there was nothing there just now.Disappeared out of thin air?Can you fly?

"You have also seen that this thing is really not easy to preserve. Before there is no suitable preservation tool, it cannot be transported for a long distance. And..., this thing is particularly prone to accidents during transportation. It's not that I won't show it to you. You can see the scene just now It’s here. If something happens during the transportation, I’m afraid the entire fleet will be scrapped.” Yun Hao spread his hands helplessly. In the age when there was no rubber, sealing was indeed a problem.It wasn't fully reflected when I was dealing with alcohol before, that's because as long as the steamed wine is passed on from Yun's family, it will enter the stomach in a few days.Even if someone hoards it, it is usually buried in the ground.

But gasoline is not enough. Could it be that you want to pull a truckload of soil and only put two jars of gasoline in it?

"If you want to go to Luoyang with this thing, you need repeated experiments before you can find the safest way. Moreover, the guards need to be specially trained. All of this will take time, so... when you go to Luoyang to fight, I'm afraid you can't use this Things." Yun Hao spread his hands helplessly, there was no other way, taking out technically immature things would be harmful.Especially in this day and age, Tang people who know nothing about technology and basic physics.

"Are you willing to donate this thing to King Qin?" Qu Tutong suddenly asked.

"It's not dedicated to King Qin, but to Datang. You and I are now a part of Datang. As long as Datang is safe and sound, we will be safe. Only with everyone can we have a small family. This boy understands."

"To be honest...you tell me not to play tricks, and you don't want to do that either." Qu Tutong squinted his eyes like an old cat.

"It's a pleasure to talk to you all the time. Although His Majesty said that the expenses of this academy can be drawn from the inner government. But the research funds are still insufficient. Please tell His Highness King Qin. If you want this thing, the price is [-] yuan. Of course, no As for asking the King of Qin to come up with so much money all at once, you can use the things in the Luoyang treasury as collateral!" Yun Hao said with a smile.

Now that Li Er is not yet the emperor, Yun Hao thinks it is appropriate to cultivate his business spirit.Yun Hao knows all about the virtues of these nobles in the Tang Dynasty.Not taking to the streets to rob is already the result of the people of Tang Dynasty praying to God and worshiping Buddha.As for forced buying and selling, it is simply commonplace.Some ideas of fair trade must be instilled in them. A court maintained by plunder will never last long.

"Luoyang treasury? You mean, King Qin will definitely be able to defeat Wang Shichong? Why are you so confident?" To be honest, Qu Tutong was not optimistic about this expedition.Luoyang City is one of the rare strong cities in the world. After being strengthened in the previous Sui Dynasty, it is no exaggeration to describe it as solid as gold.The army that Datang can dispatch for Li Shimin now has reached as many as 10.But in the face of tens of thousands of troops and horses, and Wang Shichong of Luoyang Jiancheng, [-] people are still far from enough.

"Hehe! At the end of the war, the competition must be national strength. Wen Daya is an expert in economics and history. After this period of research, he believes that the Battle of Changping was not caused by Zhao Kuo's theory. It was because, After the reform of Shang Yang, the Qin State became very rich, and although the Zhao State also experienced the reform, it only learned the Hu clothing, riding and shooting of the Hu people in the military. There is no change in civil affairs!
Lian Po's tactics are useful, at least they will not cause Zhao Jun to fail miserably.But Zhao's national strength cannot withstand the waste of Lian Po.When borrowing food from Qi State fails.I can only replace Zhao Kuo and make a quick decision.

In this case, it is understandable for Zhao Kuo to underestimate the enemy and make rash advances.Because, in the country of Zhao, there is no more military rations for hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops.Poor Zhao Kuo has been ridiculed for thousands of years because of his words on paper.But few people know the role of national power in war.

You said that Wang Shichong's military rations are enough for one year, so I suggest that King Qin imprison him for two years.Anyway, Datang has the Bashu granary, and Guanzhong was in good weather last year.There is absolutely no shortage of rations for the army. It will be better to wait until Wang Shichong starves to death, or surrender automatically.

It's better than filling it with human life. You also said that a hundred thousand troops might not be able to fill Luoyang City.You know, there are tens of thousands of people under Wang Shichong.Desperately stick to it, after killing King Qin enough.It is not impossible to go out of the city to fight back.What do you say? "

"For a city like Luoyang, siege is of course the priority. It's just that in the Central Plains, apart from Wang Shichong, there is Dou Jiande. Last year, he swallowed a lot of Liu Wuzhou's chassis, and his strength has greatly increased. If he joins the battle in Luoyang, I'm afraid...! "

"One sheep is also chased, and two sheep are also herded. Since they have come, it is not a big deal to surround one and beat the other."

"You...!" Qu Tutong pointed at Yunhao like a convulsion and trembled, and then he fumbled around for something like a stick, ready to teach this arrogant and ignorant boy a lesson.

The combined forces of Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong are probably more than double that of Tang Jun.If you add front and rear pincer attacks, this battle will not be fought at all.This little bastard also said that one sheep is also herding two sheep, and dare not lose your life when the time comes.

"Old General Qu Tu, don't be angry, as long as I fiddle with this thing, no matter how many people they come, they will be sent to death."
