    In the face of nitric acid explosives, the Turks are miserable.  The powerful nitric acid explosive can easily explode the iron sheet wrapped around it.  Countless iron nails and steel balls flew out, effortlessly breaking open the Turks' leather robes and piercing deeply into their flesh.

    Although he was mentally prepared, Li Er was still a little shocked.  He didn't expect that this miniaturized gunpowder bomb would be so powerful.  He saw with his own eyes that the Turkic soldiers were beaten into pieces by scattered shrapnel.  Just for a moment, there was not a single piece of good flesh on his body.

    Hand grenades made of nitric acid explosives no longer rely on explosives to kill people, but rely on scattered shrapnel.  In this way, the size of the grenade is greatly reduced.  A grenade weighs only a little over two kilograms. For a tough guy in the military whose muscle strength has been developed to the extreme, he can easily send this thing sixty meters away.

    When he started to hear the explosion, Jieli's heart trembled.  But he quickly calmed down, and the Tang army rarely used gunpowder in the past few days.  According to the news from Chang'an's detailed work, although gunpowder is powerful, its output seems to be very low.  Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the news from Xiaozuo seems to be true.

    But when the dense explosions came one after another, Jieli's heart fell to the bottom.  Looking at the burning city gate, Jieli's eyes shrank to the size of a needle nose.  No one can escape from such a fierce fire. The huge heat energy emitted when the fire oil burns makes the air distort.

    The fire inside the city gate cave gradually extinguished, and the Turks who were pretending to attack also withdrew.  The shrill horns kept sounding, but not a single Turk came out of the city gate.  That was a total of 6,000 people. Jie Li didn't believe that the Tang army could kill 6,000 people in such a short period of time.  Even 6,000 pigs and 6,000 sheep cannot be slaughtered in such a short period of time.

    Jie Li outside the city didn't believe it, and Li Er in the city didn't even believe what he was seeing.  But the mountains of broken corpses forced him to believe in the killing efficiency of the new weapons, which shocked everyone.  Hou Junji's jaw dropped when he looked at the densely packed corpses.  From the beginning of the killing until the corpses were everywhere, it didn't even take half an hour.  There are thousands of people down here.

    It was daybreak, and oxcarts began to drive out of the dark city gate.  It was pulling cartloads of broken corpses. The ox cart drove outside the city and dumped the corpses of the Turkic coalition forces into the open space like garbage.

    Countless pairs of eyes just watched as ox carts pulled out corpses one after another.  Within half a day, the corpses in the open space were almost as high as the city wall of Lanzhou City.  Jieli's eyes twitched. Among them were a dozen of the bravest descendants of the Ashina family.  But now, they were thrown into the pile of corpses like rag dolls.

    A dozen Tang Army cavalrymen rode on war horses, carrying huge leather bags in their hands.  They threw the skin bags on the pile of corpses and threw the torches over.

    The blue flames climbed up the pile of corpses like a snake in an instant, and then billowing black smoke steamed up.  Living people burned by the fire will scream and run away in all directions.  But when the dead were burned by the fire, Jieli was surprised to find that they would also struggle violently.  However, apart from the crackling sounds and the choking smell of burning, there were no heart-stopping howls.

    Corpses sat up one after another in the blazing fire, and then their arms stretched and contracted tremblingly.  The crows that had just gathered together screamed "croak" and "croak" and ran away.

    "Kill!" Jie Li felt blood rushing to his head. The descendants of the wolf clan had never been humiliated like this before.  Blood debts must be repaid with blood. People in the Tang Dynasty had already used so much gunpowder that there would never be such a thing again.  Fighting with real swords and guns, the brave Turkic warriors are afraid of who will come.

    Countless Turks poured out of the camp like a tide.  They all rushed to Lanzhou City like madmen, and the great Turkic King, the proudest eagle on the grassland, agreed.  The first person to enter the city can rob Lanzhou for three days.  If you don't seal the sword within three days, let them kill and plunder.

    Li Er gave the most contemptuous smile. Since the power of gunpowder bombs has been exposed, there is no need to hide it like this.  The small trebuchet newly developed by the academy was transported to the city wall, and Master Sheng Yan gave the order.  Gunpowder bombs emitted smoke and were thrown into the dense crowd.

    This is a ten-pound gunpowder bomb with an explosive power comparable to fifty pounds of black powder.  Under countless shrapnel flying, Li Er saw someone being blown up.  The blood flying out of the body is so beautiful in the sun.

    The courage he mustered up was shattered in an instant by the scorching air waves and violent explosions.  Jieli sadly discovered that the always fierce Turkic warriors had become as cowardly as rabbits.

    ??Sighed deeplyLaugh loudly.  Li Shimin sent such a tough guy to his camp with the intention of killing him.  Maybe Li Shimin didn't care about this guy's life at all.

    "Go back and tell Li Shimin that I will be waiting for him outside Lanzhou City at noon tomorrow. If he is defeated, I will cut off his head and make it into a wine glass. From now on, I will think of this King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty every time I drink." Jie Li smiled.  He waved his hand and was kicked out by Ashina Simo before Zhang Liang could reply.

    When Zhang Liang walked out of Jieli Camp, he felt a cold feeling on his back.  I thought I was dead just now, but I didn't expect to walk out so easily.  Be sure to thank Mr. Fang when you go back. The tricks he taught really work.

    Jieli has full confidence in his victory.  For a long time, the Turks have been fighting against the Tang army.  The Tang army was defending the city. Under field conditions, the Tang army, which was mainly infantry, was no match for the Turks.

    Now that Tang Jun has taken the initiative, don't blame yourself for being rude.  Jie Li immediately conveyed his order to the entire army. Tomorrow, the entire army would gather under Lanzhou City to fight to the death with the Tang people.

    The Turkic coalition forces were very excited when they heard the news, and finally no longer had to attack the abominable city wall.  Those Han people took advantage of the city wall and said that in a field battle, who could the Turks be afraid of?

    The Turks retreated five miles, leaving enough battlefield for the two armies.

    When the sun rose high above the treetops, the Tang army began to leave the city.  The first ones to leave the city were huge ox carts.  The oxcart was loaded with heavy Juma Luzhai. The Tang people only dared to let the infantry out of the city after setting up the Jumaluzhai.  Most of the Tang army were infantry, and the spears in their hands were shining brightly in the sun.  This is the most effective weapon for infantry to deal with cavalry.

    Jie Li laughed out loud when he saw Tang Jun's actions.  They all went out of the city to fight, and they wanted to put some obstacles in front.  Could it be said that with just these Ju Maluzhai, they can withstand his own 200,000 cavalry?  Of course, the Turkic coalition army now actually has less than 200,000 troops.

    ¡°These days, nearly 30,000 coalition soldiers died under Lanzhou City alone.  However, Jieli still had a huge military advantage. The Tang army opposite plus those on the city wall only numbered more than 30,000 people.  Besides, the Turks have suffered heavy losses these days. Did the Tang army suffer no casualties at all?

    There was still some time until noon, and Ashina Simo couldn't help it anymore.  He asked Jieli several times to start the attack, but Jieli refused.  In his opinion, the more Tang troops leaving the city, the better.  Don't block the Tang army in the city. It is much less laborious to destroy them in a field battle outside the city than on the city wall.

    The Tang army finally set up their formation with their backs against the Lanzhou city wall.  At this time, the midday sun shines softly on people's faces.  This is the warmest time of the day.

    "Let's start!" Looking at the sun above his head, Jieli gave the order.  The horn not far away sounded immediately, following the sound of the horn.  Tens of thousands of infantrymen rushed towards the Tang Army's military formation. Behind the Tang Army was the Lanzhou City Wall.  As long as they break through those Jumalu strongholds, the soldiers of Tang Dynasty will become lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

    "Hahaha, Li Shimin, you fool!" Jieli laughed happily. The Turks are famous for their cavalry.  But who said that cavalry cannot dismount and fight on foot.  It is a joke to use those Jumalu strongholds that block cavalry to block infantry.

    Li Er stood at the top of the city, looking at the Turkic infantry who were getting closer and closer.  He could even see the ferocious faces of the Turks, "Fire arrows!" The arrows rained down from the sky, blocking out the sun.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
