The nineteenth princess was very depressed and returned to the city lord's mansion to temporarily act as the city lord. But I sent a letter to talk to King Ming in person, but the reply I got was that King Ming was unwell and would not be accepted!

At this glance, I knew that King Ming was deliberately avoiding the nineteenth princess, which made the nineteenth princess feel very passive, facing these civil and military generals standing under the council hall, most of them were still Xia Zixiu's people, and everyone was looking at the nineteenth princess! Although he was defeated very badly, he still wanted to rescue Xia Zixiu, most of the people were brought out by the old city lord Xia Zhongkun, although he was a little disappointed in Xia Zixiu, but his loyalty was still there.

Chief Wu was a little hesitant, in his opinion, this was a good opportunity, if Xia Zixiu was really killed, then the nineteenth princess could smoothly take over Xiyuan City, and these horses would be owned by the nineteenth princess, and now the prestige of the nineteenth princess among these people has gradually been established!

"Okay, don't argue, if you can deal with King Ming's ironclad army, it won't be like this, you go down first, so you can train your soldiers and horses, and don't be passive and sluggish. The matter of the city lord, let me think about it! The nineteenth princess waved her hand very tiredly, and after a while, only Chief Wu and Wu Yue were left in the council room.

Chief Wu stretched out that there were no outsiders and said his thoughts, but the nineteenth princess shook her head: "What we can think of, can't King Ming think of it?" Besides, it will also plunge me into injustice, and then it will only be even more chaotic, and it will be even more terrible from within! ”

"Yes! It's too simple for the old man to think! When Mr. Wu heard this, he was immediately shocked, the nineteenth princess's mind was very clear, it was really gratifying, but she only saw a little benefit in front of her, so she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

"Huh! It's okay, Uncle Wu, I know you're thinking about me, but you're a little too anxious. But now it is indeed very passive, I didn't expect Zixiu to make things like this, and I didn't expect him to be captured, now I can only see what King Ming has planned! The nineteenth princess smiled reluctantly and said, for Chief Wu, although there are some disagreements these days, but Chief Wu is really his own person, and he is really thinking about himself.

……

At the same time, King Ming is feasting the ministers in his palace, and today is the princess's 40th birthday, so King Ming is feasting the ministers in his fiefdom, but it is very low-key to the outside world, and it is not too public, and now the situation is very complicated, so King Ming does not want to invite outsiders, and he will not come!

However, those palace nobles still sent people to send congratulatory gifts, except for King Wen, King Wen didn't stop contact because King Ming molested Princess Wen back then! The Seventh Princess and the Sixth Highness also sent congratulatory gifts, and the superficial form still has to go!

However, what embarrassed King Ming a little was that Xia Zeyuan, the eldest prince of Yong'an, did not say anything this time. King Ming knew a little in his heart, it was estimated that because of the death of those silver-armored guards, the eldest prince must have doubted himself. But King Ming doesn't care, anyway, there is no real evidence, and the eldest prince can only suffer a dumb loss!

The nineteenth princess is no exception, and sent a congratulatory gift, but the nineteenth princess's congratulatory gift is very coveted, it is actually twenty altars of the best burning knife, and also gave the princess's wife a hundred exquisite carved soap and a hundred toilet paper. It is the most popular among the many congratulatory gifts. The princess and lady were so happy!

King Ming is really very happy now, not only suppressed Xia Zixiu's momentum, but also captured Xia Zixiu alive, which made King Ming very relieved. In the main hall, King Ming was still talking about this matter with all the civil and military forces.

Of course, most people still advocate killing Xia Zixiu, anyway, the feud between the two families has already been settled, so it is better to eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible! However, there were also far-sighted people who opposed killing Xia Zixiu. Obviously, once Xia Zixiu is killed, the nineteenth princess will be the acting city lord, which means that the seventh princess will benefit the most. Now that the Seventh Princess is already very strong, and then she controls Xiyuan City, the southeast and southwest are all under her control, which is obviously making wedding dresses for others!

The person who led the opposition was Liu Shiyan, and he was still relatively rational in this regard. He knew in his heart that if he wanted to gain a firm foothold, he not only had to be able to pat himself on the back, but also really give advice to King Ming.

"Hahahaha! How is that Xia Zixiu now? The king would love to see him! King Ming said with a laugh, and at the same time let all the civil and military people drink a full cup!

King Ming was very lively, poured himself the best burning knife, and used a delicate wine glass. But the people of His Royal Highness can only be ordinary water wine, and of course it is also very good wine, which is sent from the Seventh Princess.

But everyone is still very depressed, you can drink it yourself, even if it is a small cup for one person, it is a thing! In fact, King Ming wanted to do this, but as soon as he weighed one person and one small cup, he almost had to divide up the ten altars of the best burning knives, and he was really reluctant in his heart. Not only is this thing enjoyable, but it's also a guarantee that he will show off his power at night!

"Back to King Wen, that Xia Zixiu is now locked up in Ma Songju's camp, and General Ma is taking care of him!" His Royal Highness immediately reported to King Ming, and when he said it, he had a little schadenfreude expression, and he dared to love Ma Songju's hobby, and the big guys almost knew it.

"Huh? Hahahaha, okay, okay, let Ma Songju entertain him well! When King Ming heard this, he was stunned at first, and then suddenly laughed. Usually he doesn't like Ma Songju very much, if it weren't for his brother-in-law, he wouldn't have reused him at all, but now he suddenly began to accept this brother-in-law a little. This is even more relieving than killing Xia Zixiu!

"Dare to ask Chitose, what are you going to do with Xia Zixiu? If you don't kill it, it's not a way to lock it up like this" Although Liu Shiyan was also very willing to see Xia Zixiu humiliated, he was more worried about what would happen later. Now the border of 20,000 ironclad army Chen soldiers in Xiyuan City is very eye-catching after all.

"Hmmm! Let him dry him for a few days, so that my nineteenth sister also knows that my king is not so easy to fool! King Ming thought about people before he said.

Everyone echoed it, and now while King Ming is happy, of course he is saying more words of praise, anyway, he has the initiative in his hand, and what he wants to do is not a matter of King Ming's words......

……

In the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, Wu Yue has already returned, this time she looks very dull, and she is not even in the mood to quarrel with Zhu Xiaobao. Just like Zhu Xiaobao said, the ideal is very plump, first very skinny! I never thought that the young talent I admired would be captured alive like this, and there is no news at all so far, the only thing that can be sure is that he must still be alive.

"Hey, hey! What do I say, embroidered pillows and a bag of grass? Yueyue, it's time for you to re-examine me, a genius with a slightly inferior image! Zhu Xiaobao said very happily.

"Humph! I don't bother to pay attention to you! Wu Yue didn't argue with her like before, but said listlessly.

"Okay, didn't you see that Yue'er was in a bad mood, and I didn't know how to comfort her!" Tong Wuxin hugged Wu Yue very intimately, and then complained to Zhu Xiaobao.

"Hey, hey! Didn't I hold back for a while, and I exposed this little bit of caution! Seriously, you describe the situation on the battlefield well, and see how powerful this ironclad army is! I don't believe it, 30,000 horses have no power to fight back? Zhu Xiaobao first laughed dryly, and then asked seriously, he had not seen this kind of large-scale battle with his own eyes. The Ironclad's methods of attack and means of attack are not at all clear.

Speaking of this, Wu Yue cheered up, and thought about what she saw in detail, and when she said it, she also had palpitations, that kind of devastating momentum was so terrible that people couldn't resist it at all.

"So powerful? How did you deal with the Ironclad before? Zhu Xiaobao listened to Wu Yue's description, and was also a little amazed, this kind of ironclad army armed to the teeth is indeed difficult to compete with.

"In the past, it was mainly on defense, and there were ways to deal with the ironclad army, digging a few trenches, and those ironclad armoured soldiers would not be able to pass, but other soldiers and those light cavalry would cooperate with the ironclad army, so they were already in a passive situation when they attacked the trench! Also, the use of catapults and heavy crossbows is also a way to deal with the ironclad army, but the effect is not very good. Because the catapult is too cumbersome and has poor accuracy, the heavy crossbow is also limited to the heavy armor of the ironclad army. "Tong Wuxin has seen big scenes, so he said it very clearly. Wu Yue also nodded frequently on the side. When it comes to fighting, Wu Yue is still very attentive.

"Oh! Then the ironclad army should be most afraid of fire attack, right? Even if those war horses are well trained, if they catch fire, I'm afraid they will have to panic, right? Zhu Xiaobao took a charcoal pencil and wrote and drew on the paper, and actually drew the shape of a tank.

"Of course! Ah, you're not trying to use your dirt bombs/bombs against the Ironclads, are you? It's useless to tell you, what about 20,000 ironclad troops, a column of 500 people, and a width of a mile! What kind of car are you drawing? Why is it so weird? Tong Wuxin suddenly thought of Zhu Xiaobao's incendiary bomb, and then shook his head and said. Now Zhu Xiaobao is afraid that there are not even a hundred soil bombs/bombs in his hands.

"Hee-hee! You're right, I just want to use incendiary bombs to deal with the Ironclad Army, this is called a tank, specifically against the Ironclad Army! Zhu Xiaobao erased the barrel from the drawing, and then drew a new one. It's a bit like a small house on the move.

"What's the use of that? It takes several horses to pull such a large chariot! Wu Yue said a little deflated.

"Well, remember the bike I built? I can have people power up the mech, so the mech can run on its own! Zhu Xiaobao raised his head and said as he thought.

"Will this work?" Wu Yue asked a little suspiciously.

"Well, if you remove the last word, that's the answer!"

"This can ......"
