Chapter 443 Clearing the Wooden Barrier with Artillery

"Since there is His Majesty's token, the last general will naturally obey his orders! Is he really the Xiao Shilang who beat our Great Qi God of War King Lanling to the point of abandoning the city and fleeing? Would he suddenly come to our Daqi for armistice peace talks? Now that the Chen army has just captured our Xuzhou, isn't it the time for morale to soar? General Qin, who was guarding the city, asked suspiciously.

As a soldier, of course, he knows the truth of pursuing the victory in one go, so he can't understand why Chen Jun, who is in a good situation, would suddenly hold an armistice and peace talks with Qi State! Normally, the Chen army captured Xuzhou and had a stronghold in Huaibei, so it would naturally continue to attack Qingzhou, and even Yanzhou in this area south of the Yellow River, although it was still a bit unrealistic for the Chen army to attack the territory of Qi north of the Yellow River, but to take the entire area south of the Yellow River, Chen Guo could still give it a try!

But now that Chen Jun suddenly stopped attacking and wanted to negotiate peace with the Qi State that had been defeated, it would really be a bit inexplicable, and as the famous killing god of Chen State, Xiao Yao dared to go to Yecheng to negotiate with Qi State single-handedly, it was even more incredible!

"This is really the famous General Xiao Yaoxiao! The reason why he personally went to Yecheng to hold armistice and peace talks with us Daqi was also because of the invitation extended to him by our Majesty! And General Xiao is also bent on the people of the two countries to return to peace as soon as possible, so he is so anxious to rush back to Yecheng with me to meet His Majesty, hoping that the two countries can stop fighting and coexist peacefully! The Messenger Leader explained.

"But this Xiao Yao killed so many of our soldiers on the battlefield, and captured many of our soldiers, and then asked them to do all kinds of hard work, living a life that is worse than death, our Qi people are eager to strip him alive, he dares to go to Yecheng now, is he really not afraid of death? Moreover, he is now the main general of the Chen army, how could Chen Guo let such an important person go to the capital of the enemy country! General Qin said puzzled.

Then looking at the murderous army behind Xiao Yao, he suddenly felt timid, and asked in a trembling voice: "Then, then this army also followed Xiao Shilang to Yecheng?" Looking at their formation, they are not like ordinary soldiers, I heard that the forward brigade under Xiao Yao's command is a unit that specializes in winning more with less, invincible, and invincible, when Xiao Yao only led a force of only 1,000 people, he captured Xuyi County, which was garrisoned by tens of thousands of people! Now that he is going to Yecheng with so many people, if he suddenly attacks and leads this army to attack Yecheng, then if we let them in, won't we lead wolves into the house, then we will be sinners of Qi country! ”

"General Qin has misunderstood! This unit is here to see off General Xiao! After all, the place where they are standing now is the territory of Xuzhou, and now it is the territory of their Chen country! General Xiao only took these guards of more than 20 people to follow us to Yecheng! That's why I just proposed to ask General Qin to send a guard to escort us back to Yecheng! The messenger leader quickly explained.

"It turns out that they are just here to see off Xiao Yao, and they scared me a lot just now, according to the combat effectiveness of the forward brigade under Xiao Shilang, although there are few people, such a force that can fight with one enemy and ten enemies, our defenders here will definitely not be able to resist! If such a thousand-strong army of them entered the territory of our Qi country, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble! General Qin said with emotion, and then saluted the messenger leader and smiled: "Since the Han envoy is going to Yecheng with Xiao Shilang, then we will remove these roadblocks blocking the road, and then let you pass!" ”

At this time, Xiao Yao walked over with a smile on his face, saluted General Qin and said, "Hello general, I have been fighting against your Qi army in Xia, the mighty general of Chen State, and now Xiao Yao, the assassin of Xuzhou!" I'm sure we've fought several times, but the first time we met! ”

Xiao Yao's arrogant self-introduction made General Qin and the messenger very uncomfortable to listen to, but Xiao Yao ignored their unhappiness and continued to smile and said: "It seems that these wooden barriers and railings are all to prevent our Chen Guo from attacking, so many, if you want to move away one by one, when do you have to move!" Why don't we help you? ”

"How to move? Do you want your Chen army to cross the border and help us remove these wooden barriers and railings on our Daqi territory? This general will not let you Chen soldiers cross the border and enter the territory of our Great Qi! General Qin said arrogantly.

"Don't worry! When I promised to come to Yecheng to hold a truce with you and talk about the end of our peace talks, our Chen army will not take the initiative to attack you, let alone step into the borders of your Qi country! So now these wooden barricades you have set up are actually useless, and now I have decided to help you solve them all at once! Please General Qin withdraw all your soldiers out of the range of these wooden barriers, otherwise I will injure you by mistake, then I will be embarrassed!" Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"A one-time solution? What do you mean? General Qin asked inexplicably.

"I mean blow them all up!" Xiao Yao said lightly.

"Blow it up? Is it your earth-shattering artillery to blow up these barricades? "As a general on the front line, General Qin is naturally familiar with the world-shattering artillery used by the forward brigade for a long time!

Xiao Yao ignored General Qin's stunned expression, but returned to the front of the soldiers of the Forward Brigade and said loudly: "All the officers and men of the Forward Brigade obey the order!" Use artillery to remove all the barricades that are blocking my way! ”

"Yes!" The soldiers let out a neat roar!

So, the soldiers of the artillery battalion pushed the bronze guns out, then adjusted the angle, aimed at the barricades of these wooden barriers, and began to load the grenades! And Xiao Yao pulled the messenger leader and General Qin aside, and then smiled at General Qin: "Today is the day when my Xiao Yao sent you to the country of Qi, these subordinates of mine will help me see me off, so naturally I want to show you the majesty of our forward brigade to your Qi army!" So the two of you were very lucky today to see the artillery shooting show of our forward brigade! You must know that the Qi troops who have seen artillery fire before are basically those Qi soldiers who were shot by artillery, and when they saw these artillery explosions, it was the last moment they lived in this world! ”

Everything was ready, Xiao Yao waved his hand, and the soldiers of the artillery battalion immediately lit the fuse of the artillery, and after the "bang" cannon sounded, then on the wooden barriers that were less than fifty meters apart, there was also a sudden explosion loud noise, "boom" Those wooden barrier railings were instantly blown to pieces, and then splashed all over the ground!

After firing five grenades in a row, the large wooden barrier railing blocking the passage in front of this Qi stronghold was all shattered by the violent explosion, and even the official road, which was very smooth just now, was now blown up into potholes, full of charred black wood and broken wood, which was unbearable to see!

And the leader of General Qin and the messenger who were so shocked by those loud noises just now that they covered their ears tightly until the smoke cleared, they were still stunned to look at the scene after the explosion, and they couldn't help but shudder in their hearts: Even such a thick wooden stake was blown to pieces, if it was a person standing on it just now, wouldn't it be even more shattered? No wonder Xiao Yao said that the Qi soldiers who saw these artillery explosions were basically dead!
