I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

But now, there is no trace of the enemy in sight, but His Majesty has already issued this confusing order, which really makes these veterans who have been on the battlefield for many years rack their brains to figure out the reason.

Although their hearts were filled with doubts, none of these old ministers dared to speak out their confusion.

After all, His Majesty has always been resourceful and often comes up with unexpected tricks that amaze people.

At this critical moment, whoever raises questions first, and if it is later proved that he cannot keep up with His Majesty's foresight, he will really become a laughing stock and become the topic of conversation in the court and the army.

Therefore, they all wisely chose to remain silent, quietly watching this strange war that was about to begin. However, deep doubts could not be hidden in those pairs of eyes that had experienced many vicissitudes of life.

"Without strategy, how can our Tang army cross the Great Wall?"

I don’t know which old minister said something quietly in the crowd, which resonated with all the old ministers.

Although many people didn't speak, they couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Hard fight! Such a disadvantage!

Li Chengqian noticed their inner confusion.

After hearing what was said in the crowd, he couldn't help but smile slightly.

"How difficult is that? Isn't it just a matter of knocking down the Great Wall?"

Li Chengqian spoke.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him in amazement.

Even Li Shimin was no exception.

To tear down the Great Wall, what a big mouth!

Throughout the dynasties, everyone wanted to cross the Great Wall and destroy it, but this is the first time I've heard of it.

Li Chengqian ignored the gazes of those around him and stared at the Great Wall in front of him.

The Great Wall is extremely strong, but it is not an insurmountable obstacle in the face of the advanced weapons and powerful national strength of the Tang Dynasty.

Qin Ruzhao raised the command flag in his hand high, waved it vigorously, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Fire!"

"fire!"

"fire!"

The sound of gunfire rang out.

In an instant, torches were quickly ignited, and the winding fuse was instantly swallowed by the jumping sparks, spreading madly into the barrel.

The soldiers next to the Qianwu cannon were well-trained. They quickly covered their ears and then lay down on the ground as quickly as possible, waiting for the shocking moment to come.

This sudden scene left the experienced ministers no time to react.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening thunder was heard. In an instant, the heaven and earth shook, and the whole world was shaken by this powerful force.

The ground beneath my feet was shaking and the air was filled with a terrifying aura.

"boom!"

The sound of cannons rang out.

Thousands of cannons roared!

The sounds gathered together and made a deafening sound.

This Great Wall was built since the Qin Dynasty and has gone through countless dynasties and storms. It was once used to resist the invasion of the Huns and protect the Central Plains.

Later, Goguryeo repaired and reinforced it in an attempt to block the advance of the Central Plains dynasty. However, under the fierce bombardment of artillery fire, the Great Wall that had stood for more than 800 years was forcibly blasted open with a huge gap today.

The gap made everyone's mouth open.

Some old ministers were caught off guard and were so frightened by the deafening sound of the cannons that their legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground in an instant.

Their faces were as pale as paper, their eyes filled with terror. Even Li Shimin, who usually remained calm in the face of a mountain collapsing before him, was startled by the earth-shaking sound and trembled all over. His face showed an expression of astonishment that could not be concealed, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Everyone stared at the collapsed Great Wall in amazement, their eyes filled with shock.

Li Shimin slowly turned his head, his eyes still lingering with shock. He glanced at Wei Zheng beside him, his lips trembling slightly, and asked in a slightly dry voice, "Wei, Wei Aiqing, is this a punishment from heaven?"

In his understanding, apart from the wrath of thunder sent down from heaven, which possessed the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, he really could not imagine what kind of power could be so violent to tear a big hole in this extremely solid Great Wall. This was completely beyond his comprehension.

Wei Zheng gently closed his eyes with a calm expression.

After a moment, he slowly opened his eyes and said in a firm tone: "Your Majesty, this is not a punishment from heaven. His Majesty said that this is called science."

The sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone.

As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, before everyone could recover from this novel concept, the second round of artillery fire began in full swing.

Each shell, packed with tremendous force, slammed heavily into the already incomplete Great Wall, then exploded with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust that covered the sky.

The roar of the explosion and the smoke-filled scene announced to the world the arrival of a new era of war.
