The shock in Ning Chen's heart was unparalleled, the ghost sedan passed by and hurried towards Jialing City.
Crude oil was discovered very early in the history of China, but it was really used in modern times. One of the reasons is that these things are generally buried deep underground and are not easy to mine.
When he came to this world, he always tried to avoid the appearance of things that surpassed the times. Every era has its own specific trajectory of civilization, and he does not destroy it at will.
Things like gunpowder and oil, once they appear in a war, can upset the balance and cause more destruction.
Daxia has oil, this is something he has known for a long time. However, he is not too worried. After all, many changes in thinking are often not achieved overnight. Just like the emergence of gunpowder in China, it was only used to make firecrackers at first. Do not
Know how many years later. It is not uncommon for ordinary people to find this thing. It was discovered and recorded in ancient China and even in the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, discovery and use are two different things. It took more than a thousand years from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the application of oil.
In the war, that is, a matter of nearly one or two hundred years. To put it simply, people's thinking and understanding have limitations. Just like Wuhou who fought in the southern and northern wars in Daxia, he had almost no chance to see these things with his own eyes. Even if he heard it occasionally, he would not take it to heart, nor would he think it is used in war,
And the person who discovered crude oil cannot stand at the height of Wuhou, and it is even more impossible to think in this regard.
The ghost sedan came to Jialing City. It was a city that Beimeng raided and laid down a few days ago. In those days, he was in a coma in the underworld and didn't know the news.
Jialing City is close to a mountain, and its geographical location is not important. Logically speaking, it should not be the target of Northern Mongolia's attack.
After Ning Chen came to the city, he didn't stop there, and headed straight to several camps where the Northern Mongolian army had been stationed in the past.
The 250,000 army required a huge camp. Ning Chen checked it for nearly an hour, and finally found unusual signs.
At the camp closest to the mountain, the imprint of the wheel went into the soil an inch, apparently pulling something extremely heavy.
Ning Chen followed the mark all the way into the mountain. In the place where the wheel marks were the most, he saw huge ravines. The oil was not flowing very much. It was obvious that part of the outermost layer had been mined.
After reading it, Ning Chen already understood in his heart, there is no doubt that Fan Lingyue knew that there was crude oil here, so he would just call here instead of hitting it.
He has seen the crude oil residues in Yueyang City. It is not the same as here. It has better liquidity and has obviously undergone simple processing.
It is not surprising for Fan Lingyue to know that there is crude oil in Yueyang City, and it is not a secret, and there must be more than just crude oil in Daxia.
Send more people to check and inquire, there will always be gains.
However, as he said, discovery and use are two different things. If Lingyue discovers and uses it, it becomes a disaster for Daxia.
Although the power of crude oil is far more than that, Fan Lingyue has already used it in the war when everyone didn't take it seriously. Ning Chen felt a little powerless in his heart. If he replaced him, without the memory of future generations, he would probably never have imagined this step. In war, he had the knowledge of war, including weapons, iron armor, and catapults. Who would be in front of the tremor field that burned Yueyang City. meeting
Thinking that this unremarkable black water would have such great power.
This battle is difficult, Ning Chen sighed, after this defeat, Da Xia's morale will definitely drop to the lowest point.
The defeat is unbreakable. The scary thing is to lose again and again. Since Daxia and Beimeng played against each other, Daxia has never won and has been losing.
First Beizhangyuan was crushed, then Yanguicheng was crushed, then Taipinghou army was crushed, and then Tianmenguan was crushed. Today, Yueyang City is crushed.
This time, even the most elite Imperial Army in Daxia has been defeated. It is very likely that a thought will arise in the hearts of Daxia's soldiers and people, that Daxia may really be unable to defeat Beimeng.
Daxia really can't beat Beimeng!
This was absolutely impossible for anyone to believe before the war began. However, today, not only other people, but even the people of Daxia have begun to believe this fact.
The thousand-year invincible Daxia has really become a thing of the past. Everyone ignores the fact that in this battle of defending the city, the Daxia Imperial Army has done a good job. Except for being stunned by Beimeng's raid at first, causing heavy casualties, in the battle of defending the city one day later , even without the support of the city wall
, still showing quite strong combat effectiveness.
In the final battle, Beimeng lost nearly 60,000 soldiers, but the Daxia Imperial Army who actually died in this battle was less than half of Beimeng's.
Beimeng has an overwhelming military advantage, and breaking the city is inevitable, and no one can stop it.
It's a pity that Yueyang City is desolate, and no one will pay attention to these facts.
Fan Lingyue is a terrifying person, who is both conspiratorial and conspiratorial.
After this war, the 40,000 soldiers who defended the city were less than 10,000, and the 90,000-strong forbidden army was damaged. The destruction of Yueyang City will be a huge blow to morale.
For 60,000 Northern Mongolian soldiers, the panic of changing Yueyang City and the entire Great Xia is definitely the most worthwhile transaction.
Moreover, the most important 100,000 iron cavalry and 10,000 heavy cavalry in Northern Mongolia are still intact, this is the real nightmare of Daxia.
To put it simply, since this war, Daxia has really fallen into crisis, and the subjugation of the country is no longer a joke after dinner, but a big problem that the dynasty must face up to.
When the three most powerful people in Weiyang Palace, Tianyu Palace, Taishi Gongfu, and Daxia received the news that Yueyang City had fallen, they all fell silent.
Xia Mingri's brows have been frowning, he has already listened to Ning Chen's advice, if he can't beat it, he will try to delay it as much as possible, and do everything possible to delay the war until the autumn.
Unexpectedly, even if Da Xia fully defended, he would still lose again and again.
Can't beat it, can't hold it, the military division of Beimeng is already powerful beyond imagination.
Da Xia was completely passive, and if he continued, he would really die.
The assassination of the imperial city still occurs every few days. Once the third prince dies, no one knows how many of these people except the military advisor in Beimeng.
The dignitaries in the imperial city are in a panic every day, for fear that they will be the next to die.
The Sixth Battalion's Imperial Army was patrolling day and night, trying their best to search for the shadows of these assassins. However, the imperial city was so huge that when they entered the city with the help of the power of the third prince, it was easier to find them.
In the Weiyang Palace, the eldest grandson stood in front of the window, looking at the night outside the window, with a complicated expression, and he did not speak for a long time.
Lime stood aside, without saying a word, waiting silently.
Neither of them thought that Daxia would be defeated again, and Fan Lingyue had almost destroyed Daxia.
Just half a year ago, Daxia was still the powerful dynasty that was invincible for thousands of years. Today, who would dare to say these words.
No excuses, no excuses, just can't beat it.
"If only he was here," Lime sighed softly and said.
In this world, Ning Chen is the only one who can compete with the Northern Mongolian military division. Daxia has no shortage of smart people. However, the thinking of these two people is always far beyond everyone's. Words can describe.
The eldest grandson looked out the window and said slowly, "He has paid too much for Da Xia. If it weren't for him, Da Xia wouldn't be able to make it up to the present. The things that follow will be left to fate."
Hearing this, Lime sighed again in her heart and stopped talking.
Outside Jialing City, Ning Chen didn't stay for too long. After a brief inspection, he left in the ghost sedan chair.
Beimeng broke through the city and once again broke through an important line of defense in Daxia. Now it depends on how Duke Jingwu and the others deal with it.
He stayed in the underworld for too long, and his understanding of the war was only at the most superficial level. Many details were unclear, and he couldn't think of anything for a while.
It was getting late, and he had to go back as soon as possible.
The ghost sedan passed by and hurried across the northern part of Daxia. Before dawn, it finally rushed back to the underworld.
Ning Chen didn't know if he would have a chance to see the sun again in this life, but there was always hope for survival.
He couldn't go out during the day, but fortunately, now that he has got a piece of Mingyuan, he doesn't have to worry about the spread of the yellow spring flower's poison, and he can try to start practicing.
At first, Ning Chen didn't dare to be careless, and carefully mobilized a trace of True Qi to circulate in his body. After feeling that his body had not changed, he tried to mobilize more True Qi.
However, just when Ning Chen had mobilized his True Qi to one third, the toxicity of Huang Quanhua showed signs of spreading again, obviously reaching the limit of Mingyuan's tolerance.
Ning Chen sighed softly and had to give up temporarily.
It seems that the source of darkness in his body is not enough to support him to continue to practice.
Neither the Scroll of Life nor the Scroll of Earth could be cultivated, so Ning Chen had to try to cultivate the Scroll of Heaven obtained from the Yin Tomb.
That page of golden paper is with the ghost girl, but he has kept his mind back. Now, instead of carefully running the scroll of life and the scroll of earth, it is better to try to practice the scroll of heaven without foundation.
Like the Scroll of Earth, the moves in the Scroll of Heaven must also be cultivated in the innate realm. Among all the celestial books, except for the Scroll of Life, the rest of the celestial books are not based on the mind.
The most quintessential part is the few tricks recorded after the mental method, but unfortunately, he can't practice.
The advantages and disadvantages of several celestial books are actually very obvious. The Scroll of Life has only mental methods, and basically no moves. The only move, although it can be practiced, is difficult to practice and scares people to death. It is estimated that he will not be able to practice it for ten years.
And like the scroll of the earth and the scroll of the sky, only after the innate can know what is special.
After a while, a little blue brilliance lit up in the underworld, very faint, like a dark firefly that would go out at any time. For a whole day, Ning Chen has been cultivating the scroll of the sky, and a trace of aura gathered in his dantian, like a newborn baby, growing slowly and clearly.
