Chapter 234 Explosives
Master Qingyuan was not angry either.
"Chagatai Teqin, although I have been in the northwest for a long time, I have heard of your reputation. You are the most valiant warrior beside the Northern King. However, in this war, bravery alone cannot be considered. We also need to plan and deploy, striving to achieve the greatest benefit with the least damage.
Although we won this battle, our northern wing soldiers also suffered many casualties while the Northwest Army fought to the death. Our injured soldiers still need to recuperate, and even those who are not injured need to recuperate as well. Further ahead is Lianghe Cliff, which will be no easier than taking this city wall, so we should be cautious.
Upon hearing this, Chagatai looked at Master Qingyuan with disdain.
"Master Qingyuan, you provided important intelligence for this battle. The Northern King gives you face, and I, the special agent, also give you some face. But you should not rely on this face to think that you can become the leader of my Northern Wing Army. My Northern Wing warriors all grew up on horseback. Fighting bravely and expanding territory is the nature of our Northern Wing warriors. If Master Qingyuan is afraid of death, you can just hide in the back..."
Seeing the two arguing fiercely, the King of the North howled.
"That's enough, sit down."
Then he spoke in a deep voice.
"What you two said makes sense, especially Master Qingyuan, who is very thoughtful and considers things more thoroughly than us roughnecks. However, we don't have much food and fodder. Perhaps the Northwest Army was well prepared, and there is not much food and fodder in this tower.
Our northern wing is already short of food, so we must be as self-sufficient as possible in this battle. Therefore, continuing to attack the northwest is imperative. So, have the military doctors use the best medicine for our wounded warriors. Tell the cooks to prepare meat for the soldiers over the next two days. They will eat and drink well, and then rest for two more days. We will leave 100,000 men to garrison, and we will take 50,000 to explore the way to Lianghe Cliff."
And at this time, Lianghe Cliff.
Su Hanchu and Jun Moye stood at the bottom of the canyon and looked at the cliffs above.
Su Hanchu couldn't help but frown. It was winter, the weather was cold, and there was even a drizzle in the air. Don't you know when the Northern Wing Army will arrive? If the front line got wet, it would be too late.
Jun Moye looked at her frowning face and spoke.
"Chu Chu, is there anything that's bothering you?"
Su Hanchu took out a bag of explosives.
"Aye, this is called dynamite. It's the kind that explodes quickly once ignited, and can also blow down part of the mountain. When that happens, a large number of boulders will fall down, and the Northern Wing Army will be crippled if not killed. But the weather is not good, and the fuse that ignites the dynamite must be easy to ignite. If it gets wet with dew or rain, it will be affected."
Jun Moye reached out and took the fuse, then looked at the explosives in Su Hanchu's hand.
I have never seen these things before, but I have long been accustomed to her taking out some strange things. But when I heard him talk about the power of this thing called dynamite, I was really shocked. If this thing really has such great power, the battle would have been won.
"At first, the North Wing was very bellicose. Now that they have just won a battle, they will definitely pursue the victory and launch an attack in the next two days. We don't know whether they will attack tonight, tomorrow night, or the night after tomorrow, but they will only attack in these two days.
Winter is generally considered a dry climate, and judging by the recent conditions, there should be cold winds in the next couple of days. Of course, there might not be frost in the morning. Otherwise, why don't we use something to wrap the fire line."
Su Hanchu's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"
Then he took out a roll of plastic wrap from the space. Well, emptying a supermarket in his previous life was not a big help to him.
Then the two of them sat down on a stone and wrapped a layer of plastic wrap around the fire line so that even if there was frost in the morning, the fire line would not get wet.
Jun Moye spoke while wrapping the fire line with plastic wrap, following Su Hanchu's movements.
"Chu Chu, is this thing useful?"
Su Hanchu did not stop his hands and spoke affirmatively.
"Don't worry. Whatever I take out has never been useless. Just wait a moment. We still need to place the explosives. We need to find a crack in the cliff to put them in. It's best to find a deep crack so that there will be enough boulders falling."
Jun Moye looked up at the cliff and continued to wrap the fire line with plastic wrap.
"It's not a big deal. The question is, is the explosives you mentioned enough?"
Su Hanchu looked at him helplessly.
"It's definitely not enough. I didn't have much space before, but it's easier than preparing the boulders myself. Moreover, if the boulders or even the mountain fall, the Northern Wing Army will panic. Then we can take advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack and always be able to turn the tables."
Jun Moye looked at her, his heart filled with pride.
"My wife is still amazing."
How could this be considered impressive? Clearly, she had benefited from the organization in her past life, even having plundered the explosives from within it. But to receive praise from her husband, how could Su Hanchu not be cocky?
"This is necessary. Don't you see whose wife I am?"
Jun Moye reached out and touched her head, then continued with his work.
"Chu Chu, I know you want to fight alongside me, and I know your abilities, but I still want to remind you. The war is about to begin, and I may not be able to take care of you on the battlefield. You must protect yourself."
Su Hanchu listened and looked at him and then spoke.
"Don't worry, you already said that you know my abilities. It wouldn't be easy for the Northern Wing Army to kill me."
After the two of them wrapped up the fire line, Su Hanchu put it into the space and then took out two hidden weapons. These were the weapons he used to escape from the mission in his previous life.
He tied one of them around Jun Moye's wrist, and then tied it around himself as well.
"Aye, this hidden button here is the switch, watch carefully."
Then he placed his wrist above the cliff, pressed the hidden button, and the hidden weapon flew out with a whoosh and stuck firmly on the cliff.
"This is made of special materials. It has no problem bearing hundreds of kilograms of weight. The prerequisite is that the place where we can use it for support can also bear our weight."
He then took out a glove and gave it to Jun Moye, and put one on himself.
"The hidden weapon is too thin. If we hold it directly with our hands, our hands will definitely be injured, so we need to wear special gloves. Next, check whether the position of the leverage point is stable."
After Su Hanchu finished speaking, he grabbed the thin rope of the hidden weapon and hung it in the air. After making sure it was safe, he stepped on the cliff and began to climb up...
