Emperor of the Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin was so angry that his veins jumped, and he slowly withdrew from the battlefield while scolding Heyuan Gai Suwen.On the way back to the barracks, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel that he was very uncomfortable.

"Damn it! How dare Mo Lizhi of Koguryo be so arrogant in front of me!?"

Li Shimin is gnashing his teeth, but the worst thing is that he can only watch Yuan Gai Suwen rampant, but for the time being there is nothing to do with him!

There is nothing in the world that can make an emperor more angry than this, especially since the battle has been fought until now, almost all breakthrough reversal victories were made by Li You, who was originally an audience. On the contrary, he is dignified. Tang Tianzi seems to have no contribution! .

Chapter 880 Oil!

"Hey... Having said that, all my previous plans are in vain, so why bother with this kind of thing?"

Li Shimin thought for a long time before sighing helplessly and admitting this reality.

He wanted to show his majesty in front of Li You, but now he has completely declared a failure, so the top priority is not to hold on to this face, but to solve the problem!

So in the military tent, Li Shimin struggled for a long time before finally letting go and directly asking the question that he had been hiding in his heart.

"Yang Jie, do you have a way to break the Iron Tower Army and Xuan Dou City?"

After all, once you ask Li You for advice on this kind of question, it means that Li Shimin has lost completely, which is equivalent to saying that I can do nothing. If Li You can't give an answer, then Li Shimin will really vomit blood.

Fortunately, Li You never disappointed Li Shimin, staring at the city map of Xuan Dou City with a faint smile.

"Go back to the father and the emperor, my son really has some methods, and he has already repaired books and returned to Chang'an to carry out this method. I must be there soon! 09"

……

Chang'an, Nancheng.

Gong Shuzan was lying in the shade of a tree in the Tang Academy of Sciences, the palm fan in his hand flickered twice from time to time, obviously he was going to see Zhou Gong soon.

Suddenly hurried footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard gate, and Gong Shuzan's drowsiness was completely gone. Gong Shuzan couldn't help sitting up angrily, wanting to reprimand him after waiting for someone to come in.

"Gong Shuzi, what's the matter with you? Didn't I teach you to be polite in every word and deed? How decent are you!"

Seeing Gong Shuzi running in sweating profusely, with a hurried look, Gong Shuzan, who was disturbed by his sweet dream, shouted loudly.

"Yes, the kid knows it's wrong, it's just... It's just that His Royal Highness's urgent document is here, I dare not not deliver it immediately!" Gong Shuzi raised the envelope in his hand high.

"What did you say?!"

Gong Shuzan, who was still teaching Gong Shuzi that every word and deed should be talisman, suddenly jumped over and rushed over to take the envelope in Gong Shuzi's hand without even wearing his shoes. He couldn't wait to open it and take a look.

After Li You left Chang'an, the construction of Nancheng was not over, so Gongshuzan was extremely boring.Now that he heard Li You's letter, he didn't care about anything, just opened the letter and read it quickly.

"Prepare the carriage, call the two elders and Gongshu Changlin, we are going to Gaonu County!"

After reading the letter, Gong Shuzan changed his expression and gave a serious order to Gong Shuzi.

Gong Shuzi was a little surprised, and quickly cupped his hands and asked, "Gaonu County... it seems to be near Chang'an, right? Dare to ask the Prince what orders are you?"

"His Royal Highness ordered us to find a black flammable water in Gaonu County!"

"Water, can it burn?" Gong Shuzi looked blindly, "How is this possible? Could it be that His Royal Highness has lost his mind..."

"presumptuous!"

Gong Shuzan shouted and scolded: "What do you know? It's not like you haven't heard of His Royal Highness's past, many of his remarks may sound unbelievable to us, but in the end, facts will prove that he is right. !"

Gong Shuzi's face turned pale after being scolded, and he quickly bowed and saluted, withdrew from the courtyard, and quickly went to prepare for the carriage.

Gaonu County is about [-] miles away from Chang'an, and it takes a day to get there.The black water that can burn is naturally oil, and the reason why Li You knows that there is oil here is because he has read an ancient book that records this.

Originally, in the book "Mengxi Bi Tan" written by Shen Kuo in the Song Dynasty of the Celestial Dynasty, it was written: "There is oil in the territory of Kun and Yan... . . . This thing will be great in the world in the future, and it will be done from the beginning. It contains the most oil, and it is born in the earth indefinitely, not like the pine tree that is exhausted at times."

Before Shen Kuo, there were even more books that recorded that by a stream in Gaonu County, there was a gushing water flowing out naturally, and the spring water and oil mixed intermittently in the river and could be burned, so this is not oil but also what?

According to Li Youxin's description, Gong Shuzan and his party finally discovered the oil well by a river.

Several people couldn't help looking at each other, only to think that His Royal Highness was so miraculous, even though he was thousands of miles away, he knew exactly that there was such a place here!

"Can this water really burn?"

Gong Shuzi didn't believe that this black water could actually burn, he stained the black liquid with his feathers, and then hit it with a flint and flint, only to see a flash of fire, and the feather in his hand had turned into a flame!

Looking at Gong Shuzi's experiment, the rest of the Tang Academy of Sciences were also stunned. There is such a magical thing in the world, and I didn't know it before!

"His Royal Highness is really knowledgeable and knowledgeable!" Gongshu Changlin bowed his hands 987 to Dongfang and said sincerely.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, and hurry up to collect this thing called oil. His Royal Highness said in the letter that the battle ahead is urgent, and he urgently needs this thing to turn things around and turn defeat into victory!"

……

A few days later, Li You watched with satisfaction as the carriage from afar transported barrels of oil down, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

Now that the oil is in hand, the rest is easy!

Li You pointed at the wooden barrel in the middle of the army tent and said, "Father, all generals, this is the key thing for us to turn the tide of the war. I call it oil!"

After speaking, Li You stepped forward, opened a barrel of oil with a long knife, and asked Li Shimin and the generals to come and watch.

"Can you break through the Yuangai Suwen with just this thing?" A general stepped forward and said in surprise.

"Yes, this thing ignites when it meets fire, and the temperature is extremely high and it is difficult to be thrown out. If our army uses this thing as a guide, as long as we use fire attack, the armor of the Goryeo army that can be easily burned will not be left behind! As for this Xuan Dou City... hum, after the fire attack, it can only be a piece of scorched earth!"

Facing everyone's suspicious look, Li You's face was full of confidence! .
