Rumble!!!~~~

The sound of horse hooves roared, and the sound of footsteps shook loudly. A soldier dozens of miles long drove out from Chang'an City like a long dragon. They were wearing armor, holding spears, carrying knives, and carrying bows and arrows. They were extremely majestic.

The military formations were arranged, with infantrymen in front, light cavalry on both sides, and civilians escorting food and grass behind.

In the middle, there was the commander of the army. A black man wearing a kirin armor and a tiger helmet rode a tall black horse, holding a black gold spear. He looked around and looked like a tiger, which made people dare not look directly at him.

"Report!" At this moment, I saw dust flying in the distance, and then I saw several scouts wearing black armor and bows and arrows riding on horses and riding quickly from a distance, running to the black man, jumping off his war horse, half-kneeling and holding his fists and saying, "Report to General, ten miles ahead, Beixia and others found that there were rebels secretly spying on our army. Beixia led his army to fight with the rebels for a while, and killed more than 20 rebels."

When people around him heard this news, they were quite excited. They had already made contributions as soon as they set out. It seemed that the contributions were probably worth it this time.

Only the black man frowned slightly and looked at the scout who was kneeling in front of him in a cold voice. "How many scouts are there in total? Can anyone escape? Can you ask Li Chengming where the traitor is?"

"This..." When he heard the question from the Black Man, the scout, who was still a little happy, suddenly seemed to be poured by cold water. He looked up and looked at the Black Man carefully, then clasped his fists and said, "Go back to the general, there are about 30 rebels in total, and about seven or eight rebels who escaped. Those rebel bones are extremely hard and humble and incompetent. They did not ask where the rebels are from them. Please forgive me!"

"Bastard, you hundreds of cavalry can't even keep thirty cavalry. How dare you come back and ask for me?" Hearing the scout's words, the black man raised his eyebrows, "Come on, drag him down and beat him ten sticks to serve as a warning to others!"

"This..." Hearing the order of the black man, all the soldiers around him looked at each other and thought they had auditory hallucinations.

Especially those scouts who were half kneeling on the ground to report military merits were even more confused.

They came back to report good news, but they had made great contributions, but when they got here, they seemed to have made a mistake and were about to be marching?

"Yes, General!" Others were stunned. The guards on the side were not stunned. The two guards stood up and came directly to the scout in front and pulled him up.

"Give me your life, general, please spare me..." The scout leader was pulled down and shouted bitterly. Wherever he passed, all their soldiers looked at him. Some soldiers who knew the good feelings suddenly looked different.

At this moment, in a luxurious carriage not far behind, a fat middle-aged man with a round face walked out of the car and came to the black man and said, "Jingde, that man has made military achievements no matter how he said that, I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to do this?"

The black man was actually Yuchi Gong, the commander of the army appointed by Li Shimin, who looked at Changsun Wuji who walked beside him and said lightly, "Changsun Jianjun, the military law is like a mountain, and I am just following the law. This person is not doing well. Can't I punish him yet? Then how will I convince the public in the future?"

Seeing that he had come close, Yuchi Gong was still sitting on the horse, and his words were cold and his appearance was full of business, which made Changsun Wuji narrow his eyes and a cold light flashed through it.

Although he understood that the reason why Yuchi Gong was like this was entirely because his son Yuchi Baolin was killed by Li Chengming. Yuchi Gong was furious at this time, so he did such a rude and indiscriminate rewards and punishments.

But although I understand, Changsun Wuji is not a generous person, not to mention that he has long been unhappy with Yuchi Gong.

It was obvious that the Gong Bian not long ago was that he had been giving advice for Li Shimin. Whether it was to buy Chang He, the governor of Xuanwu Gate, or how to act, he was indispensable, not to mention that he was Li Shimin's brother-in-law. However, after the Gong Bian, Yuchi Gong relied on a brute force to be regarded as the same top-notch merit as him by Li Shimin, and he was named the crown prince's left guard. Even this time he went to the expedition, he was appointed as the commander of the army, and Changsun Wuji could only serve as a military supervisor.

Although the military supervisor represented the Crown Prince Li Shimin in terms of reputation and could control the commander of the army, Yuchi Gong obviously did not take him as the military supervisor seriously at this time.

However, Changsun Wuji did not show his dissatisfaction. After all, the army's outbreak this time is of great importance. If he had a rash conflict with Yuchi Gong, he would probably shake the morale of the army. He would still be clear about this.

"Haha, since General Yuchi knows it, I won't talk much anymore." Changsun Wuji narrowed his eyes and smiled, and then did not stay there. He turned around and walked back in the direction of the car.

Yuchi Gong looked at Changsun Wuji who was walking back coldly, without any fluctuations in his heart. Until Changsun Wuji got on the car, Yuchi Gong snorted coldly, then reached out to touch the bamboo steel whip on his waist, and countless bloodshots appeared in his eyes, which looked extremely ferocious, and murmured to himself, "My son, wait, within five days, I will definitely avenge you for my father, and send that little beast Li Chengming to accompany you!"

…………

As the night falls, the stars fall, and the light silver moonlight sprinkles on the earth, making the earth under the night fall like a layer of silver gauze.

Li Chengming walked out of the county militia camp in the carriage, and slowly headed towards Hui County under the escorts of eight East Palace guards and hundreds of light cavalry and soldiers led by Xue Wanche.

Originally, he should have gone back to rest earlier, but after returning to the camp, Li Chengming felt that the method of loading bombs in pots was not good before, so after returning to the camp, he asked Luo Ning and others to try using cloth to make black gunpowder into explosives and try several times.

After several experiments, it was found that using explosive packs is not only easier to carry, but also does not affect the power of the explosion. So Li Chengming ordered that he stop using jars and just use cloth to make explosive packs.

Regarding the production of explosives, Ye Xuan directly handed them over to Luo Ning and asked someone to lead the remaining seventeen Eastern Palace guards to prepare explosives bags.

In fact, it is not as difficult as imagined to make these explosive packs. After all, they only need to weigh and match them according to a certain proportion and then wrap them up. As for other matters about milling powder, they don’t need to pay attention to the refining.

According to Ye Xuan's estimate, the seventeen East Palace Guards and Luo Ning could probably make hundreds of explosive packs in one night, and this was due to the limitation of materials. Otherwise, they would probably be able to complete the task in one night.

A curfew has been imposed in Hui County. Except for the city wall area, the shops on the streets of Hui County have been closed tightly. Except for a little light you can see in the house, you can never see anyone again.

Li Chengming entered Huixian under the escort of a group of people. After arriving at the county government, he saw that the Huixian County Magistrate Wang Fusheng, wearing a light blue official robe, and other people in the yamen were standing respectfully outside the yamen waiting.
