Li Yanqing quickly walked to the big tent of Zhong Shidao, and saw that in addition to the head coach Zhong Shidao, there was another scholar in the big tent, Dai Yunyi, the chief aide of Tong Guan, whom he had met last time.

When Mr. Zhong saw Li Yanqing coming in, he smiled bitterly and said, "It's useless to explain, this Mr. Dai must see you."

Li Yanqing saluted the coach, then smiled and asked, "What advice does Mr. Dai have?"

Dai Yunyi said with a stern face: "I came for the thunder of the sky. Taiwei Tong was very annoyed. With such sharp siege weapons, you used them alone, which caused heavy losses to the Western Front army. General Liu Fa was also killed in the battle. How do you explain it?"

Li Yanqing was somewhat sad when he heard that the famous general Liu Fa was killed, but the other party's accusations made him unable to accept them. He said coldly: "What does the failure of the Western Front have to do with us?"

"It's relevant. If you could make the thunder public earlier, we wouldn't have suffered such a terrible loss."

Li Yanqing shook his head, "The sky-shaking thunder just now is very unstable. Although he succeeded in bombing Yinzhou, the burning speed could not be controlled, which led to the two gunpowder thunder who invented the sky-shaking thunder being blown to pieces. How dare we present such a firearm to the Taiwei?"

After a while, Dai Yunyi snorted: "What Li Zongjun means is that the thunder of the sky disappeared?"

"It won't disappear, but the recipe is gone, but the two gunpowders have also made more than twenty thunders. If Taiwei Tong is not afraid of it blowing around, it would be okay to give half of it to you."

After saying that, Li Yanqing glanced at the head coach Zhong Shidao, and Zhong Shidao nodded, "I told him just now that there are still twenty-four thunderstorms, and they can be divided into twelve Taiwei Tong, but he insisted on the recipe, and I can't do anything about it."

Dai Yunyi rolled his eyelids and said, "Hmph! Without a recipe, how long can he last just by taking twelve thunders?"

Li Yanqing shook his head, "I am bluntly, the thunder of the sky is not as powerful as Mr. Dai imagined. Yinzhou City is built with soil and wood, so it can be blown up. The city tower of Shizhou City is also shown because of the decay of wood, and its power is revealed. However, Shizhou City itself is made of huge stones, and the thunder of the sky is not harmful to it at all. If Mr. Dai doesn't believe it, you can go to the scene to see it."

"I really want to see it. Li Chanjun please lead the way!"

Dai Yunyi refused to believe Li Yanqing's words, and he must see it as the truth. Li Yanqing and Zhong Shidao looked at each other, and Li Yanqing waved his hand and said, "Please!"

The three of them came to Nancheng with more than a dozen personal soldiers. They saw more than a hundred fortification soldiers installing the new city gate. The old city gate was burned out and could no longer be used. They went up the city along the corridor. The blown-up tower had been cleaned up, leaving only four bottom pillars. The ground around them was pitch black, and the traces of being burned by the fire were still there.

"Mr. Dai, please look at this pillar!"

Li Yanqing pointed to one of the bottom pillars and said, "The wood is loose and the internal decay is obvious. It has been at least a hundred years. You can imagine that the entire city tower is very decayed. The thunder cannon can blow it up, let alone thunder."

Dai Yunyi didn't say anything, and it really seemed very decay. Breaking down such a city tower did not show how powerful the thunder was. He walked to the stone foundation of the city tower and looked carefully. Li Yanqing pointed to a bluestone that had slightly exploded a corner and said, "This is the landing point of the thunder that shook the sky at that time. After the explosion, the surrounding bluestones were not shattered. Mr. Dai should be able to see it. What I said is not false."

"If it explodes inside the city wall, the effect may be different."

"It's not easy to talk about it. Last time we were just approaching the city wall by the excuse of catching corpses in the moat. There were thousands of eyes on the top of the city. How could you easily get close to the city wall? The bluestone wall is very strong. At most, one gap can be blown up. It is impossible to collapse or a big hole. Mr. Dai should not place his hope on it, and he will be disappointed."

"I don't think so!"

Dai Yunyi curled his lips and said, "This is it! Let's talk about the formula again. I will bring back twelve thunders first. If Taiwei Tong has any questions, you will explain it yourself."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to the corridor. He suddenly stopped and turned around and asked Li Yanqing in confusion: "Why is this thunder related to Li Zongjun? This should be a logistics matter!"

Li Yanqing smiled faintly, "Without the recipe, the thunder of the sky cannot be made. The existing 24 thunder of the sky are all placed in the Intelligence Department and used by the Intelligence Department, so it has something to do with me. To be honest, I can't bear to take out any of them."

"Hmph! Taiwei Tong's transfer order is to take away everything. I only took half of it. It's already very cheap. You are content!"

Li Yanqing raised his eyebrows and was about to attack, but Zhong Shidao quickly stopped him by winking. Li Yanqing snorted heavily and ignored Dai Yunyi.

A quarter of an hour later, Dai Yunyi led 300 cavalrymen to take away twelve thunders, leaving Shizhou City and heading south.

The dust was flying on the Gobi Desert west of Xiazhou, rolling yellow dust covered the sky and the sun, the earth was trembling, and a huge cavalry was running towards the east. After a moment, a black line that lasted several miles appeared. As they ran closer and closer, they gradually opened and turned into a huge black carpet.

The low horn sounds of 'Woo' echoed on the Gobi Desert together, and the team gradually slowed down from behind to forward, and finally stopped moving forward.

In the middle of the team, under a yellow Luo umbrella, the King of Xixia Li Qianshun was wearing a golden helmet and armor, wearing a golden emperor's sword, and rode a tall and majestic red rabbit horse under his crotch. His eyes were sharply looking ahead. Not far ahead, more than a dozen riders were rushing towards this side.

Li Qianshun was really worried. He had originally focused on dealing with the Western Front. After all, this was the main force of the Song army, but things went against their wishes. The Song army on the Western Front made little progress, but the Song army on the Eastern Front won consecutive battles, tearing a huge hole in the southeastern defense line of Xixia.

Li Qianshun could no longer calm down and immediately led 50,000 of the most elite heavy armored cavalry to Xiazhou.

Although the Song army has been preparing for war publicly since last year, Li Qianshun was not optimistic about the Song army's northern expedition. He knew that the Song Dynasty had many internal conflicts, the power struggle was very fierce, and the corruption of the court and the army led to a very low combat effectiveness. The performance of the Song army on the Western Front was very consistent with his inference, but Zhong Shidao's army performed very amazingly. Not only was it brave and tenacious, but it withstood the attack of tens of thousands of people with hundreds of people, but it also used a powerful firearm, which made Li Qianshun's heart full of worries.

After a moment, Xiazhou general Chaka and Jianing Military Office deputy general Ye Litong came up. They turned over and dismounted and crawled and kowtowed, "The young general greets His Majesty!"

"You two get up!"

Li Qianshun asked the two of them to get up and asked anxiously: "What's wrong with the army of Zhong Shidao now?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the army of Zhong Shidao is still guarding Shizhou and has not continued to move north."

Li Ganshun breathed a little relieved and asked again: "Have you found any clues that thunder in the sky?"

Chaka's face was full of bitterness. Where did he go to check this powerful thunder?

He had no choice but to say ashamed: "I asked as many witnesses as possible and summarized a few."

Li Ganshun was disappointed and glared at him with dissatisfaction, "Let's talk about it when you go back to the city!"

He urged the horse to lead the army to Xiazhou City, and Chaka lowered his head. He really didn't know how to explain his incompetence to the monarch.

In the palace in Xiazhou City, Li Ganshun, who was exhausted and did not care about rest, immediately ordered the guards to find Chaka.

"Tell me! What's going on with that thunder?" Li Ganshun asked after taking a sip of tea.

"Weichen has found many witnesses and roughly summarized three characteristics. One is the terrifying explosion, the sound is earth-shaking. Many people died without scars on their bodies. They were probably shocked to death: the second is that they are extremely powerful. Yinchuan City was directly blown down nearly a hundred feet, and Shizhou City Tower was also blown to pieces. Third, it is a firearm. Survivors of Yinchuan City have seen it, like a big winter melon, which should be cast in pig iron, and nothing else is left."

Li Ganshun nodded. It would be good to say so much. He said to Chaka again: "You don't have to worry about the matter of thunder and thunder. Focus on defending yourself, especially not allowing any spies from Song army to mingle into Xiazhou City. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

"Go!"

Chaka breathed a sigh of relief, he was lucky! The monarch did not ask about Tuoba Ning, so he quickly dismissed.
