Chapter 757 Shocked Again
Langya Mountain Pass.
Yunzheng had mentioned this place countless times, but this was also his first time coming to Langya Mountain Pass.
Langya Pass is at the origin of Baishui River.
It was the cold winter in Shuobei at this time, and it looked like a scene wrapped in silver.
Yunzheng led a group of people to Langya Mountain Pass to check the terrain.
Because Jia Yao was there, he didn't take out his clairvoyance and just looked at it with his naked eyes.
Looking up, the peaks look like intertwined wolf teeth.
The name Langya Mountain Pass comes from this.
Frozen rivers cut through the mountain passes and spread downstream.
The position they once focused on defending was less than a hundred feet wide.
However, the terrain around here is steep and dangerous, making it impossible to pass a horse-drawn wagon.
If you want to transport supplies in large quantities, you must open up a suitable road.
Without the aid of explosives, this would be an extremely huge project.
Of course, even with the assistance of explosives, this project is not easy.
Ten thousand field soldiers may not be able to complete the task before spring.
We need to send more manpower!
Go back and bring over 10,000 prisoners!
Looking at the Langya Mountain Pass in front of him, Jia Yao couldn't help but secretly smile bitterly: "If I had led the army, I probably wouldn't have wanted to take advantage of the Langya Mountain Pass."
"I won't make any plans here either."
Yun Zheng nodded and smiled, "However, if there is no better choice, I may take risks."
There is a fatal flaw here.
It took too long for the troops to pass through the Langya Pass, and it also took a long time to assemble.
Gaoyao was speechless.
Yes!
Better choice!
Split Wind Canyon would be a better choice, but unfortunately, Yun Zheng ambushed them in Split Wind Canyon many times.
They have all been frightened!
In this case, it is reasonable to choose Langya Mountain Pass.
The two chatted for a while, and Yun Zheng quickly determined the location where the explosives should be buried. After ordering people to bury the explosives, Yun Zheng immediately led his people to evacuate quickly.
It wasn't until he retreated far enough that Yun Zheng called Shen Kuan and gave him instructions: "Give me the order, and after three tongs and drums, light the explosives again!"
"Yes!"
When Shen Kuan sent someone back with the order, Yun Zheng ordered his people to start beating the drums.
This time he deliberately left the fuse of the explosive very long, giving the person who lit the explosive enough time to evacuate.
While waiting for the explosive to detonate, Yunzheng covered his ears and motioned for Gaoyao to cover his ears as well.
However, Ga Yao shook his head solemnly.
She wanted to feel the power of this thing again.
Seeing Jia Yao's insistence, Yun Zheng stopped trying to persuade him.
"boom……"
In their anticipation, a deafening explosion finally sounded.
"Boom...boom..."
Immediately afterwards, the second sound, the third sound...
Accompanied by the violent explosion, even though they were far enough away, they could still feel the vibration of the ground.
Fires were everywhere in the mountains, and rocks were flying.
After adding sugar, the power of the explosive explosion has indeed increased a lot.
The sound of explosions made Ga Yao's ears buzz continuously.
But even so, Ga Yao still didn't cover his ears, he just stared blankly at the scene in front of him.
The scene this time was even more shocking than last time.
It was like a scene where the sky was falling and the earth was falling.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ga Yao's heart kept trembling.
This time, she learned from Yunzheng that this thing was called explosives.
But she only knew one name.
How the explosive was made, she had no idea.
Of course, Yun Zheng would definitely not let her know.
She knew that Yun Zheng meant to shock her, but she was still shocked.
Any general with a little foresight should know the huge effect of this explosive.
With explosives, those tall city walls will no longer be an insurmountable chasm.
When attacking a city, it will no longer be necessary to use human lives to fill it.
In other words, there is no need to rely entirely on conspiracies and human lives.
If she had had explosives in her hand during the previous negotiations with Guifang, she would have definitely dared to attack Guifang's royal city directly with just that few people.
Isn’t the benefit gained from capturing Guifang King’s City greater than the benefits gained from hard-working negotiations?
She was keenly aware that explosives would become Yunzheng's weapon to sweep the world.
After a long time, the explosion stopped, but the sound in the mountains still did not stop.
The sounds of landslides and rocks rolling down continued, and there was a cloud of smoke and dust everywhere.
After a long time, Jia Yao came back to his senses with difficulty, and looked at Yunzheng with a complicated expression, "If this explosive is thrown out by a catapult, few cities can resist it, right?"
"It's not that exaggerated!"
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled, "There is no omnipotent thing in this world. In the final analysis, any war still depends on people!"
Even those advanced explosives from previous lives cannot be said to be indestructible.
The city wall can definitely play a huge role in defending the city.
Explosives can only be used as support.
Conquering cities and territories ultimately depends on people.
"That's weird!"
Yunzheng told the truth, but Jia Yao didn't believe it.
However, this is what Yunzheng wants.
Let Ga Yao slowly think about it!
She knew that Jia Yao was unwilling, but Jia Yao was a smart person.
He only hopes that Gaoyao can make the right choice, and always make the right choice!
"Send the order and ask Tian Bing to build a shack nearby first, and then enter after the situation in the mountain stabilizes!"
Yun Zheng ordered Shen Kuan again.
Although he was eager to build bridges and roads, it was impossible for Tian Bing to start work now.
If there is a landslide somewhere, hundreds of people may die.
"How long are we going to stay here?"
Ga Yao asked absentmindedly.
Yun Zheng smiled sideways, "Let's go back the day after tomorrow! I will also meet with officials from Shuofang tomorrow and then go to Shuofang..."
Now that I'm here, I definitely want to visit Shuofang along the way.
This was also the first time he returned to Shuofang after leaving Shuofang.
"Oh, all right."
Ga Yao forced a smile.
Go back early!
The person she sent back to the royal court to inquire about the situation should be back soon.
The sooner the sweet potatoes are brought back to Beihuan, the sooner she will feel at ease.
"Let's go back to Shuofang and rest first! We'll set off back to Dingbei early the day after tomorrow."
Yunzheng called to Jiayao and got on his horse.
Jiayao nodded slightly and got on his horse.
On the way to Shuofang, Jia Yao was always absent-minded.
Yun Zheng didn't know what she was thinking, and he didn't deliberately interrupt her thoughts.
By the time they hurried back to Shuofang, the sky had already darkened.
Although Yunzheng is no longer in Shuofang, he still retains his previous residence in Shuofang.
There are also several servants in the mansion who clean the mansion every day.
Until dinner time, Gayao looked distracted.
This stamina...is a bit big!
Yunzheng secretly complained and went back to his room to rest and think about tomorrow.
After thinking for a while, Yunzheng spread out a piece of paper before coming to the case.
"Dong dong..."
He had just written less than a hundred words when there was a sudden knock on the door outside.
"Your Highness, Mrs. Gayao would like to see you."
Immediately afterwards, the guard's voice sounded outside the door.
Gayao?
Did she come to talk to me this late at night?
Or... sleeping in bed?
