Mohist Tang

When Daoist Shenxiaos body was lifted out, Mo Dun couldnt help but feel sore and heavy. It can be said that Daoist Shenxiao had such encounters, and Mo Dun has a great responsibility. If it weren’t for Mo Dun’s deception to expose Daoist Shenxiao, maybe Daoist Shenxiao is still alive in Great Tang.

“Fellow Daoist Mo can die in the evening! Fellow Daoist Mo must not be guilty. Instead of sinking in the wrong way, Daoist Shenxiao proves the Dao by his own body, and it can be regarded as death.” Yuan Tiangang seems to be able to penetrate people’s hearts. , Tao.

Mo Dun suddenly felt in his heart and said firmly: “Among the Hundred Schools of Thought, which one is not the first and only one who studies his own knowledge, and the Medical School of Thought tastes the herbs, the poisoned and dead have Therefore, Li Daoyuan compiles the Notes on Water Classics, travels north and south, and crosses the mountain jungle. There is no less life-and-death crisis. Mohist Family specializes in machinery, and there are many disabled people. Military School of Thought wrote Art of War. There are so many people who died on the battlefield. The crisis we are waiting for today is to pave the way for future generations.”

Yuan Tiangang nodded, although the big explosion suffered heavy losses, it was of real significance. The above proves that the path of Daoist School External Alchemy is the correct path, not the path of Pill Dao of illusory.

Mo Dun solemnly saluted Daoist Shenxiao’s body, “Go, Fellow Daoist, and I will follow you later.”

Everyone has a solemn expression. Although the philosophers of Hundred Schools of Thought have different ideas, their desire for learning is the same. Although Daoist Shenxiao was suddenly transformed and died, the explosion of heaven-shaking and earth-shattering proved that Daoist Shenxiao The best evidence for seeking the right way.

“General, all the remains have been found, and no one has missed it.” A soldier came to report.

Li Junxian immediately sent a sighed in relief. As long as the number of people is right, the accident can be classified as an accident, which is much simpler.

However, Li Junxian didn’t care about it, and said: “Come here, go and invite the best work from Chang’an City, one after another to verify your identity, and Daoist Yuan to cooperate.”

Yuan Tiangang joined hands and said: “General Li rest assured, Xuandu Guan will cooperate fully.”

Li Junxian is satisfied with nodded. This matter is of great importance and cannot be prevented.

“General Li, have you ever investigated the cause of the accident?” Mo Dun asked quickly.

Li Junxian nodded, said: “According to the current evidence, the first place where the fire started was Taoist Shenxiao, and it spread quickly, so that many people had no time to escape and were buried in the fire sea. The swift and fierce fire is really only seen in the next life.”

“If there were only a big fire, there would not be so many deaths, but in the big fire, it was accompanied by waves of thunder-like sounds. , Destroying houses and trees, there is such a loss.”

Li Junxian saw the scene of the fire and saw a huge circular shock wave that even the ground was raised three feet, and the whole fire was filled with a weird smell.

Mo Dun knew in his heart that the biggest formidable power of Gunpowder is not in the flame, and the huge impact generated at that moment is the root of everything that is destroyed.

“Before an order is sent from the palace, continue to block the Xuandu Temple, and no one can be allowed to leave the Xuandu Temple.” Li Junxian was instructed towards the soldiers.

“Yes!” Baiqi general led the command.

Li Junxian turned his head and said to Mo Dun and the others, “Lets go, everyone, I believe Your Majesty is already waiting.”

Everyone’s heart sank, and suddenly they took a Deep breath, seeing the formidable power of Gunpowder, both Mo Dun and Yuan Tiangang understand how important this thing is to Great Tang, and now it will be Li Shimin’s accountability to usher in.

Taiji Palace,

Li Shimin sat on Dragon Throne with a gloomy expression, listening to Li Junxian reporting the situation of the mountainside of Xuandu Temple.

On its right, two military ministers, Li Jing and Hou Junji, are in the audience. The Xuanduguan explosion has exposed Gunpowder to the world, so there is no need to hide it from the military.

When the two heard Li Junxian’s report, they couldn’t help but raised their brows, and looked at the opposite side in amazement to respect Mo Dun and Yuan Tiangang.

No one thought that the Modao family would secretly smash up such a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering weapon, which is simply a peerless weapon tailored for the Military School of Thought. .

Li Jing suddenly eyes shined. He suddenly remembered that in the Imperial Court before, Mo Dun insisted on encouraging Great Tang to attack Tuyuhun. When Li Shimin asked whether the Mohist Family had weapons to destroy the city, Mo Dun’s Mohist Family meant nothing.

Even Hou Junji also reacted and swept around Mo Dun and Yuan Tiangang in surprise. I couldn’t help but take a high look at the background of these philosophers of Hundred Schools of Thought.

“Putting it that way, not only was the refined Gunpowder destroyed, but even Daoist Shenxiao died because of it.” Li Shimin suppressed his voice, and anyone could feel Li Shimin’s suppressed anger.

The Xuanduguan explosion gave Li Shimin a thorough insight into the formidable power of Gunpowder, and at the same time he realized how heavy the loss of the explosion was. The destruction of Gunpowder is second, and the heaviest loss is the passing of Daoist Shenxiao.

Gunpowder is still under development. Daoist Shenxiao, who got the secret formula of Gunpowder, is like a madman, putting all Essence, Qi, and Spirit into the development of Gunpowder. According to Daoist Shenxiaos routine secret report, Gunpowders The development is about to reach perfection. It can be said that the value of a Daoist Shenxiao is that if ten thousand horses are placed in front of Li Shimin, he will remain unmoved.

“The minister is guilty.” Yuan Tiangang bowed to ask for the crime. In any case, this happened in the Xuandu Guan, and he was the leader of Daoist School, so the responsibility naturally fell on him. .

“Have you found out the cause of the explosion.” Li Shimin took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart a little.

Li Junxian nodded said: “Judging by the current traces, the preliminary identification is an accident, and the hundred horsemen are still conducting further investigations.”

Li Shimin’s face was a little slow. As long as its not for the leak of Gunpowders secret formula, things are not considered the worst. He is also more inclined to Baiqis judgment. When Mo Dun first showed the Gunpowder formidable power to Li Shimin, apart from Mohist Family and External Alchemy lineage In addition, there are no outsiders at all, and even the military is hiding it. Outsiders are basically impossible to know the role of Gunpowder.

“Poor Daoist is ashamed, this is the blessing of Daoist School, unable to bear such a sharp weapon, which attracted the wrath of the heavens and invited heavenly punishment.” Yuan Tiangang joined hands and asked for sin.

Now the inner core dominates the Daoist School. The inner core of Daoist School has always advocated quietness and inaction. Naturally, it doesnt like Gunpowder’s killing weapon. After the explosion of Xuandu Temple, heavenly punishment is said to be in Xuandu. The view is popular.

“Heavenly punishment, I think it is negligence!” Li Shimin coldly said that Gunpowder is flammable. Mo Dun had repeatedly reminded the External Alchemy faction to ban the fire source. If the External Alchemy faction pays attention, This accident may be avoided, but he saw with his own eyes how Mo Dun manufactured Gunpowder, they are all ordinary things, and how there would be heavenly punishment.

Hou Junji expression moved: “Daoist Yuan, Daoist School advocates quietness and inaction, and pursues Heavenly Dao. It is excusable for not being good at this kind of killing, but our Ministry of War advocates killing. Its a good idea if the military supervisor of the Ministry of Defense is responsible for manufacturing this Gunpowder.”

Military School of Thought does not believe in heavenly punishment. For them, the greater the formidable power of the weapon, the more they like it. With such a weapon in hand, Military School of Thought even dared to fight against heaven and earth.

Yuan Tiangang looked up at Hou Junji, frowned involuntarily, and then lightly said: “As long as the Military School of Thought can ensure that Gunpowder does not explode a second time, Daoist School is naturally happy to see it. “

Hou Junji immediately concluded that although the cause of the Gunpowder explosion was defined as accidental negligence, even Taoist Shenxiao, who was in charge of Gunpowder, died as a result. The cost was too great, and the fire was covered up. After all, it was impossible to know what caused the Gunpowder explosion, and he couldn’t guarantee that there would be a second accident.

Hou Junji rolled his eyes and couldn’t help but see Mo Dun who had been silent from the moment he came in. He said in his heart: “Lord Marquis Mo is involved in manufacturing Gunpowder, and he is clever and wise and famous for Chang’an. City, I wonder if there is a way to solve the hidden danger of Gunpowders explosive potential.”

As soon as Hou Junji’s voice fell, everyone suddenly looked towards Mo Dun.

Li Shimin’s eyes can’t help but show a glimmer of expectation. The formidable power of Gunpowder is already obvious to all. If the problem of Gunpowder explosion is not solved, it will be like an untamed beast, it hurts itself before it hurts others. .

Although Mo Dun knows that this is Hou Junji’s method of violent generalization, it is not a time to care at this moment, and he muttered: “After all, the Gunpowder explosion still has a fire source to ignite. To avoid recurrence The accident is to prevent all things that may cause the fire source to come into contact with Gunpowder.”

Yuan Tiangang frowns saying: “Although what Lord Marquis Mo said is reasonable, Fellow Daoist is not a reckless person. Knowing that Gunpowder is flammable, it is basically impossible to ignite the fire source in the Gunpowder workshop.”

Mo Dun shook his head: “Gunpowder is different from other things, even a tiny spark may ignite, if Let youngster think that there are too many ways to ignite Gunpowder besides our common fire folds.”

“hope to hear the details!” Yuan Tiangang asked.

“First of all, thunder and lightning can strike trees and cause fires, and it can be seen that lightning can also cause fires.” Mo Dun said.

Yuan Tiangang nodded, in the history of thunderstruck wood, forest fires are not rare.

Hou Junji suddenly sneered, and sarcastically said: “Lord Marquis Mo, don’t you really think that the explosion of the Xuanduguan Gunpowder this time was because of encountering heavenly punishment, it was a lightning strike and a fire! Chunlei is full of thunder. No one in Chang’an City has ever seen lightning.”

Yuan Tiangang’s face was immediately embarrassed.

Mo Dun shook his head and said, “Below I just talk about the possibility of fire, and if we wear mink coats in winter, we will find tiny lightning on the mink coat when we undress in the dark. If you contact Gunpowder in a mink coat, it may be a possibility of fire.”

“This is also the cause of the fire?”

Everyone can’t help but mouth opened wide, who can I thought that the clothes I was wearing could even catch fire.

“Apart from this, collisions between flints and swords will cause sparks, so Gunpowder workshops must also take strict precautions against ironware.” Mo Dun said this, everyone could not help being nodded, this problem is extremely Common, but at the time of Daoist Shenxiao, this was not prevented at all, so it seems that Daoist Shenxiao’s accident is not accidental.

“Apart from this, in Mohist Family Statistics, if the accumulation is too high for a long time, spontaneous combustion will occur. The Gunpowder workshop should avoid prolonged accumulation, and even some phosphorous fires can stay at room temperature. It can ignite spontaneously…” Mo Dun one after another listed the phenomena that can catch fire in nature.

Everyone couldnt help but stun their tongues. Who could have thought that there were so many reasons for the fire? Everyone couldnt help but look at Mo Dun with surprise, how boring the people of Mohist Family should be able to study Such unpopular knowledge.

“Of course, these phenomena will catch fire only under specific circumstances, but Gunpowder is the most flammable. Even if it is possible, it should not be prevented. Apart from this, the manufacturer Gunpowder must also be in the open. Once the land is made, it will be transferred and sealed immediately, so that even if there is an accident, it will not cause major losses.” Mo Dun solemnly said.

Everyone is nodded, and Gunpowder will take it if there is no accident. When there is an accident, heaven-shaking, earth-shattering, and heavy losses, it is natural to be foolproof.

“Everything is learned, Poor Daoist has been taught.” Yuan Tiangang exclaimed.

After Mo Dun’s analysis, everyone suddenly discovered that Taoist Shenxiao’s accident is not surprising at all, but it is probably strange that it does not happen.

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said: “Gunpowder is important. In the near term, it is related to the battle of Tuyuhun. In the long term, this is Great Tangs century-old plan. I am going to collect Gunpowder manufacture in Imperial Court. Firearms Squad was established to develop Gunpowder weapons specifically for the manufacture Gunpowder of the Ministry of War.”

“As you bid!”

Everyone said in unison.

Yuan Tiangang sighed in relief, Gunpowder is a hot potato at Daoist School, and Taoist Shenxiao has passed away, so it would be better to be transferred to the Imperial Court, and Daoist School has already contributed Gunpowder The credit for the recipe is unnecessary.

Hou Junji showed a hint of joy. The Gunpowder formidable power is huge. He has long been tempted. If the Ministry of War can control it, the Ministry of War will add a weapon out of thin air.

“Mo Dun is Firearms Squad Libation Chancellor, responsible for rebuilding the Gunpowder workshop. Before April, enough Gunpowder must be produced for the Tuyuhun battle. If a similar incident occurs again, he will definitely be punished severely.” Li Shimin looked at Mo Dun.

“As you bid!”

Mo Dun stood up and said.

For this appointment, no one was surprised. After Taoist Shenxiao passed away, only Mo Dun knew Gunpowder the most, and he had to produce enough Gunpowder before April to supply the Tuyuhun battle. This can only be achieved by leveraging the strong industrial capabilities of Mohist Family.

Li Junxian immediately looked towards Mo Dun with a green face. Ordinary persons entered the officialdom, all starting from the bottom, and Mo Dun suddenly achieved the position of Libation Chancellor. The starting point is unknown. How much higher the ordinary person.

Hou Junji sneered in his heart. It is said that Mohist Family Son will enter the Ministry of People or Ministry of Works as an official in the future. Who would have thought that Mo Duns first official was the Ministry of War, as long as Mohist Family Son entered the Ministry of War. , Is not to let him decide, maybe take the opportunity to control Mohist Family.

However, he hasn’t been happy for long, just listen, Mo Dun bowed and said: “Firearms Squad is a secret, and the Gunpowder formula is the most important thing. Although Firearms Squad belongs to the Ministry of War, please follow the example of Baiqi He is directly responsible to Your Majesty to ensure that Gunpowders formula is perfect.”

Hou Junji hearing this suddenly felt a sudden burst of heart, and looked at Mo Dun in disbelief. He did not expect Mo Dun to make such a calculation. In this way, not only can he escape the control of the Ministry of War, but also become the confidant of His Imperial Majesty.

“Quick!” Li Shimin said.

In this era, Gunpowder is comparable to the importance of nuclear bombs in later generations to the country. Mo Dun let Firearms Squad be directly responsible for Li Shimin, which can be said to be more appropriate. Li Shimin will naturally know Which is great.
