Chapter 43: Unexpected discovery

In the early morning, the thin mist has not yet dissipated. The smell of gunpowder and blood is everywhere in the air. Some soldiers began to scatter in twos and threes to collect their heads. The direct loss is a knife. Nothing is lost. The sharp blade will cut off the neck of the Huns. There are corpses all over the ground. The smoking tent has been reduced to ashes.

Meng Tian dragged Shang Wen to visit the battlefield. Said to treat Shangwen's vomiting. Indeed, Shangwen's vomiting symptoms were cured. Those who are vomiting are not vomiting anymore. His face was pale, without a trace of complexion. It's like a seriously ill person. Shang Wen couldn't stand it anymore.

The Huns who burned into coke were lying on the ground. At this time, he was still struggling temporarily. The dark corpse lay there. A soldier of the Qin Army quickly got it and chopped off his neck as if he had found a treasure. Reached out to grab the black head. When I scratched it, my hands were full of blood-black sticky things. The soldier felt very sick. Rub your hands on the ground. Just walked away. The veteran on the side laughed. It's like entertainment. Shang Wen looked at everything in front of him. He shook his head and walked away.

There are craters everywhere on the ground. There are still a lot of corpses. mutilation. minced meat. The soldiers of the Qin Army harvested the first level happily.

A person who looked like a lieutenant came over.

Arched his hands and clasped his fists towards Meng Tian. : "Meet General Meng."

"How is the battle?" Meng Tian said calmly.

"Report to the general. This time, our army won a big victory. Less than two hundred casualties. More than 300,000 Huns were all annihilated by our army. None of them slipped through the net." The lieutenant said happily.

"No one slipped through the net?" Meng Tian smelled it.

"No, last night my army set up three barbed wire fences around the camp to surround it. No one ran out. It's just..." the deputy said hesitantly.

"Just what?" Meng Tian asked.

"It's just that it is very difficult to clean up. It is necessary to remove the buried grenades. Also clean up the corpses of the barbed wire and the horses." The lieutenant said.

"Clean up carefully. Has the scout been dispatched?" Meng Tian then asked.

"It has been dispatched. The front scouts are here to report. I have seen the generals' team. The news of the victory of the generals has been reported to the king." The deputy said.

"Well, you go down." The lieutenant turned and left.

"Wait." Meng Tian called.

"What's the matter, General Meng." The lieutenant turned around and asked.

"The body of Shan Yu of the Huns has not been found yet." Meng Tian asked.

"Report to the general. I have sent someone to look for it as soon as possible. Shan Yu's camp has been completely destroyed. In the camp, only half of the corpse is intact. The rest is a pool of minced meat. Some are burned. Heitan. It's already unrecognizable." The lieutenant told the truth.

"Okay, go down." Meng Tian waved.

Shangwen found a place without any corpse or minced meat. Sit down carefully.

Meng Tian leaped and ran over.

"Too **** enjoyable. I have never fought such a refreshing battle. One side. The enemy is still 300,000 troops, and we have lost less than two hundred people." Meng Tian said with a fist happily.

Shang Wen tremblingly said, "That's good, that's good."

"It's okay," Meng Tian said.

"It's okay. This is too disgusting." Shang Wen took the words and said.

"Stay a little longer, it's fine." Meng Tian said.

"Okay, I can't stand it anymore. I want to go back." Shang Wen supported Meng Tian's shoulder to get up and go back.

"Xingxing, I will accompany you." Meng Tian helped Shangwen. I'm afraid of any accidents with this guy.

Did not go far. Shangwen saw a crater full of black rocks. There are also some powders. Shangwen walked over, not feeling like black and gray. It's not like gunpowder. If it is black and gray. It's just a full floor. Very sparse, not so dense.

"What's wrong." Meng Tian looked at Shang Wen.

"It's nothing, I'll go over and take a look." Shang Wen walked forward.

"You are not afraid. There is a black corpse in front. Maybe it's more disgusting than this." Meng Tian said jokingly.

Shangwen didn't hear it. Walked quickly into the crater.

Bend down and squat down. Touch it with your hand. Stretch out your hand. The tips of the fingers are black. Like coal, not gunpowder residue.

Grab a bit, put it in front of your nose, and smell it. Asked without gunpowder. It should be coal.

Looking at Shang Wen's strange behavior. Especially after hearing it, Meng Tian felt that this guy suddenly became bolder.

Shangwen dug in the crater with his hands. Some coal began to show up. Shang Wen began to smile happily. This battle is really a big deal. An open coal seam was blown up unexpectedly.

"Meng Tian, ​​Meng Tian, ​​come and take a look. Hurry up." Shang Wen called out loudly.

"What's the matter?" Meng Tian ran over quickly.

"Look." Shang Wen said, pointing to coal.

"It's nothing. That's it." Meng Tian said in a puzzled way.

"This is coal. Coal." Shang Wen jumped up happily and said. His face began to have some redness.

"With this, the temperature can be increased. Iron is produced by smelting. Where there is coal, there must be iron ore and other resources. Now I will make a fortune." Shang Wen said happily.

"Can this thing burn?" Meng Tian said.

"Yes, of course I can. With this, what I can do is bigger." Shang Wen said affirmatively.

Meng Tian didn't understand why Shangwen said this, but he felt that it definitely made sense for Shangwen to do so.

"Come on, come on. Come with a shovel." Shang Wen shouted.

"Wait, what are you doing with the shovel?" Meng Tian asked.

"I want to see how big this open-pit mine is. I can't wait anymore. Hahaha." Shang Wen said with a smile.

"Come on. Dig. Dig around to see if there is such a black, charcoal-like thing, go." Meng Tian ordered the soldiers around.

"Here," the soldier said, arching his hands.

The soldiers began to find something to dig, and they didn't know why they wanted to dig this thing. Shang Wen waited a little anxiously. I personally searched for something to dig, and saw the sword left on the ground. Pick it up and start digging. Shang Wen is a bit crazy, after all, this thing is fuel. It is something that can bring about a technological revolution. If it can be used on a large scale. The prospects are very broad. It can smelt iron, can make steel, and can be used as power for trains. Many chemical things can be extracted, and coal will always contain more or less other resources. These can all be used. If you make good use of it. Everything I want to make is inside.

Meng Tian looked at Shang Wen who was a little mad, and quickly stepped forward to help digging.

Digging for a while. Shang Wencai stopped. Looked at the coal seam exposed to the surface. Happy in my heart. Unexpectedly, an open-pit coal mine was fought out in the war.
