"Your Majesty, there seems to be a pack of wolves at the foot of the westernmost mountain!" Li Jing looked a little excited.
"Wolves?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others couldn't help but feel excited.
Immediately, he quickly looked towards the top of the mountain.
Sure enough, at the foot of the westernmost mountain, I didn't know when I came across a pack of gray wolves, at least fifty of them.
In the distance, there are four huge gray wolves, guarding a large black and shiny black wolf, standing on a large rock.
"So many wolves?"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were all shocked.
"Only more than fifty!"
Li Ji grinned, there were two hundred soldiers and one hundred muskets there.
Sure enough, after the wolves slowly walked up the mountain.
The musketeer battalion soldiers hiding around were also discovered by the wolves. Unable to hide, they all stood up and formed formations.
At the same time, the group of wolves also began to slowly circle around the soldiers under the command of the alpha wolf.
However, the group of wolves did not wait until they started attacking.
On the top of the hill, a group of musketry battalion soldiers took the lead in attacking.
Following a burst of gunfire, Li Xuan, Li Shimin and others saw that all the wolves fell to the ground in an instant.
Some wolves even flew far away for a while before falling to the ground and twitching a few times.
As for the wolf king in the distance and the four guard wolves, they were the first to fall to the ground.
"These guys did a great job!"
Seeing this, Li Jing, Cheng Zhijie and others couldn't help but praise him.
Li Shimin also nodded slightly, his face full of joy.
at the same time.
A large number of gunshots also crackled on several surrounding hills.
At the same time, there were also screams of wild animals in the middle.
Hearing this, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others also quickly looked towards the surrounding hills.
The surrounding mountains were filled with soldiers from musket battalions, holding muskets and chasing wild animals that were running around.
In this era, there are many wild animals in the mountains.
Especially some large wild animals, ordinary people, even more than ten people, cannot deal with them with bows and arrows.
Therefore, the bigger the wild animals are, the bolder they are.
They didn't expect that after they had been the king of this mountainous area for so long, such a group of powerful two-legged beasts would suddenly appear, and they could kill them directly with weapons that made thunderous sounds.
I can't even run.
An hour later.
In a valley, there are a bunch of wild animals piled up.
Wild wolves, tigers, black-faced men, blind bears, hares, pheasants, and even a few antelopes.
"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect to kill so many wild animals in such a short time. It seems that these brats will have a good life from now on!"
After walking around these wild animals for a while, Cheng Zhijie, Li Jing and others couldn't help but marvel.
In such a short time, there were at least 20,000 kilograms of wild animals.
"You will search around again and kill so many carnivorous beasts at once. The remaining herbivorous rabbits, antelopes, and wild deer will definitely overrun next year and eat away the entire mountain!"
Li Xuan said.
Hearing this, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others all looked confused.
Among the people, only Xue Rengui, Cheng Chusi, and Li Chongyi could understand what Li Xuan meant.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xue Rengui responded and led a group of musket battalion soldiers into the depths of the mountain forest.
When it was almost dark, a group of musketry battalion soldiers came out with antelopes, rabbits, and wild deer.
One day of military training was very enjoyable for Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and other important officials of the Tang Dynasty.
And Xue Rengui and other Thunder Army soldiers were even more enjoying themselves.
In addition to the more than 30,000 kilograms of wild animals brought back, and more than 6,000 soldiers, they can basically eat a meal of meat and vegetables every two days.
After Li Shimin and others returned, they gave an oral instruction to the Shaofu Supervisor.
Let the young master supervise the craftsmen to mine ore in the iron mines.
Pay close attention to making iron and steel.
After receiving the order, Yu Liangyin, who was in charge of mining the iron mine, was full of surprise, but the emperor had no choice but to summon his group of miners and go to the iron mine.
"Your Excellency, with this terrible weather, the soft soil on the ground can be frozen into stone, let alone the ore in the mountain. If I wait for someone like this to go into the mountain, I won't be able to dig out a hundred kilograms of ore even in one day.
!”
A group of miners put their hands in their arms and said helplessly.
"Shut up, it's not like I won't pay you, so why are you complaining?"
Yu Liangyin turned around and glared at the miners behind him, and cursed angrily.
"Your Excellency, the villain, and others are worried that the ore dug out every day is too little, and they are afraid of living up to the saint's royal favor!"
Several miners quickly apologized and laughed.
"Huh, if you can't dig out enough ore, a certain family will be punished. Why are you worrying so much?"
Yu Liangyin snorted coldly and walked forward angrily.
He is worse than anyone else.
It's a nice cold winter. How comfortable is it to stay in the Yamen?
Unexpectedly, following His Majesty's instructions, he could only lead a group of miners to get up early in the morning, brave the cold wind, and come to dig iron ore.
However, His Majesty is a wise king, how could he issue such an edict?
Let so many miners come to the mine to mine ore?
Thinking about it, Yu Liangyin suddenly saw a miner running over with a face full of surprise.
Yu Liangyin was startled, "Why did the mine explode?"
With that said, he hurried towards the iron ore.
If something happens to Iron Ore again, although this little signer will not be beheaded, he will definitely be held accountable!
After running under the iron ore, Yu Liangyin stayed where he was, with the same expression as the other miners.
His mouth was slightly open and his eyes were wide open, as if he had seen something incredible.
"How could this happen?"
Yu Liangyin muttered to himself with a confused look on his face.
"Your Majesty, it seems like it was exploded by gunpowder!"
At this time, a sharp-eyed miner looked at the ground for a long time, then slowly raised his head and said.
When they were mining ores in the past two years, they encountered large ores that were difficult to mine and used gunpowder to explode them.
Therefore, I am still somewhat familiar with the traces of gunpowder.
"Did it explode with gunpowder?"
After hearing this, Yu Liangyin quickly lowered his head and looked around. Sure enough, there were traces of gunpowder explosions everywhere. Looking at the iron ore mine in front of him that seemed to have been blown into pieces, it was still a bit unbelievable.
.
"It's just, what kind of gunpowder can blow up such a large iron mine into this shape?"
"Your Majesty, do you want to report this matter to the Young Supervisor?"
Beside, an official in green clothes hurriedly asked for instructions.
"Report it, report it quickly!"
Yu Liangyin trembled and said hurriedly.
"Yes, sir!"
The green-clothed official hurriedly bowed his hands in response and ran out quickly.
Yu Liangyin also reacted at this moment, with a face full of surprise.
"No matter what, since this iron mine has been blown up to look like this, it is a great blessing for us. We can dig out tens of thousands of kilograms of iron ore in a day!"
"Haha, sir, you are wise. These iron ores have been blown into small pieces. We only need to pick them up and carry them out!"
