Han Xuan ordered the baggage battalion to gather all the firearms and prepare to capture the new city in one go, because the military rations of Han Xuan's army were running out after a long delay.

Han Xuan personally came to the front and commanded the troops to load the catapult with "fire and thunder" to attack.

"Ignition! Ready, put! Han Xuan waved the command flag and shouted loudly.

Countless "fire and thunder bombs" carrying sparks flew towards the city gate and city wall, and a deafening explosion sounded as a deafening explosion sounded, and the gate of the new city was blown open.

"Block! Block the gates with stones! "The new city guard, Wen Qin, was calm and commanded the defenders.

The guard Zhang Ying nodded at him, and then looked at the city, where the defenders killed hundreds of people and injured countless people by fire and thunder shells.

Zhang Ying took the sword and shouted: "Give me all the ones who are not dead, the enemy army is about to enter the city!" Quick, meet the enemy! ”

Jiang Qinzheng, the general of Han Xuan's army, was commanding a large army, pushing the cloud ladder towards the city wall. Zhang Ying hurriedly commanded the archers to be full of bows, ordered the people to send stones and rolling logs, and repelled another wave of attacks by Han Xuan's army with difficulty.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the sky, dark clouds covered the sun, and the wind and sand blew so that the soldiers could not open their eyes. At this moment, Yu Ban came out of the forest with dozens of strong men wearing face toveils and carrying truckloads of pine branch fire oil and blended into Han Xuan's army.

When the wind subsided, Yu Ban led the people to find the location of Han Xuanjun's baggage camp, where a large number of fire and thunder shells, arquebuses, and gunpowder were piled up.

Zhu Ran, who was in charge of guarding, discovered Yu Ban and the others, and hurriedly stopped them and asked, "Which general's subordinate are you?" ”

Zhu Ran saw that they were pushing a cart of fire-starting things, and immediately determined that Yu Ban and the others were spies of the enemy army, so he hurriedly called the sergeant to arrest Yu Ban and the others.

"Not good! I'll stop the enemy, and you set fire to it. Under the ban, the dozens of people pushed the cart and went straight to the firearms.

"Stop them!" Seeing this, Zhu Ran hurriedly commanded the soldiers who rushed to block these people.

Yu Ban hurriedly pulled his bow and arrow, and an arrow hit Zhu Ran's forehead, and Zhu Ran fell to the ground with a scream. Most of the people brought by Yu Ban were killed by Han Xuanjun, who rushed over, but a few people still rushed to the firearms with small carts that lit the fire.

"Boom~" Several explosions sounded from the rear army, and the shock wave swept away Ling Tong and a large number of Han Xuan sergeants who rushed over.

"What's going on!" Han Xuan turned around and looked behind him in shock.

"It was the Wei army spies who took advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the baggage camp, and all the firearms have been destroyed!" The later military cadet reported that.

Han Xuan was furious and led a large number of sergeants to the rear army. I saw that this place was already in shambles, and only Ling Tong and a Wei general were left on the field to fight in the sea of fire.

"Who are you? Dare to break into our army camp! Han Xuan shouted at the Wei general.

Yu Ban slashed at Ling Tong's chest, Ling Tong struggled to jump away, and behind him was a sea of fire, and neither of them could get out.

"Forbidden! It's you. Han Xuan was surprised.

Yu Ban swung his knife and attacked Ling Tong directly, Ling Tong was injured by the explosion before, and at this moment he was already fighting with one breath, and he was not Yu Ban's opponent at all.

Ling Tong was slashed in the left shoulder by Yu Ban, Ling Tong endured the severe pain and pressed the back of Yu Ban's knife with his hand, and stabbed the forbidden heart with a backhand. Yu Ban struggled to pull out his knife and slashed at Ling Tong's face, both of them were dying.

"Great Wei State - Long live!" Yu Ban shouted with his last breath.

"Long live the new Han!" Ling Tong laughed miserably for a while, shouted and fell to the ground.

The two were finally engulfed in flames, and Han Xuan and all the soldiers were stunned.

"Oh no, my lord! Wei led Zhuge Dan thousands of elite horsemen to kill from the left. ”

"Cao Xiu led the way to ride 30,000 to rescue the new city!"

"The city guards Wen Qin and Zhang Ying led the army to kill the ......"

"Collect the troops......" Han Xuan shouted in a low voice, although he was extremely unwilling and sad, Han Xuan still had to give the order to withdraw the troops.

After Han Xuan ordered Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to lead the army to break off, he led the army to withdraw to Jianye. When Chen Wu and Zhuge Jin attacked Huaiyin, they were also defeated by Jiang Ji and Chen Qian.

At the military aircraft department, Han Xuan clenched his fists and looked at the map in front of him. Hefei, this sad place, Han Xuan has been killed here twice, and Gu Li, Ling Tong, Zhu Ran and others have died in battle.

Chen Wu patted Han Xuan's shoulder and comforted: "Failure is not terrible, we must sum up the experience of failure, never give up, and finally succeed!" ”

Han Xuan remembered the picture of Ling Tong and Yu Ban being buried in the fire together at the end, and suddenly felt full of grief and indignation, and sighed: "Ling Tong and Yu Ban are both loyal ministers!" But each is his master, woo hoo lament! ”

"I never thought that the Wei army would reactivate the old general's forbidden ......," Zhong Xuan said regretfully.

"I didn't expect this to be the case, there were only a few dozen people in the ban, and when the wind was raging, they mixed into our rear army. This kind of courage is unmatched by Wei Ying, so he may come voluntarily in the ban. Han Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Qun calmly analyzed: "In the past, Yu Ban's Seventh Army was flooded, Yu Ban was forced to surrender to Guan Yu, and he suffered humiliation when he returned to Wei. This time, it must have taken a lot of effort to investigate the time and place. ”

"Yu Ban Jiangcai, unfortunately it can't be used by me! After this battle, I know that we must not be careless in the use of troops. In the future, the firearms camp must be strictly guarded against and must not be repeated! Han Xuan learned from the pain and instructed everyone.

"King! Wei Wen is back! The doorman suddenly entered the door to report and interrupted Han Xuan and the others.

"Who? Who do you say is back? Han Xuan couldn't believe his ears and asked again.

"It's the ocean-going fleet led by General Wei Wen who has returned!" The doorman explained.

"Hahaha~ It's finally back!" Han Xuan turned his sorrow into joy and took Chen Wu, Chen Qun, and Zhong Xuan to greet Wei Wen.

Han Xuan came to the main hall, Wei Wen came up to the hall with a wooden box, and bowed to Han Xuan: "The last general Wei Wen, on the order of the Marquis of Chu, commanded Liu Bei and deputy commander Zhuge to go overseas to find Xianshan, fortunately, not to disgrace the mission!" ”

"What! Have you found the Americas? Chen Wu was overjoyed when he heard this.

Wei Wen raised his head, his face tanned and shiny from the sun from his long voyage at sea.

Wei Wen presented the wooden box, Han Xuan and Chen Wu looked at the contents of the wooden box with happy eyes, and laughed in unison: "That's right! That's the potato! ”

"Yu Chu Hou, the last general and others according to Chu Hou's order, all the potatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, corn and other crops were found, in addition to beans, peanuts, cocoa, lima beans, cashew nuts, ......" Wei Wen said a lot of crop names that Han Xuan and Chen Wu had heard of or had not heard.

As a famous chef in Jiangnan, Chen Wu was so excited to hear the names of these crops that he couldn't wait to show his hands.

After rewarding the soldiers who went to sea for the expedition, Han Xuan, Chen Wu, Zhong Xuan, Chen Qun and others ate hot pot full of chili peppers, sticking out their tongues while listening to Wei Wen tell the anecdotes they encountered overseas.

It turned out that after Wei Wen and his team set off from Yizhou, they met the island all the way, and then drifted on the sea for several years, and finally saw the land. The local natives saw a group of strangely dressed people coming to the beach, all of whom came with stone axes and spears to surround Wei Wen and the others.

Liu Bei, Wei Wen and others saw that these natives were as yellow-skinned and black-haired as them, and almost thought that they were the descendants of the Shanyue people. At first, the two parties could not communicate because of the language barrier, but later Liu Bei and others' military physicians cured a sick aboriginal and won the trust of the natives.

After that, Liu Bei, Wei Wen, Zhuge Zhi and others began to teach the aborigines to learn Chinese, and through the exchange, Liu Bei and others were surprised to find that the customs of these aborigines had many similarities with the Han people.

For example, the legend of the tengu eating the moon, the similar flood story, the dragon culture and the feathered snake culture, the common taiji diagram and gluttonous ornamentation and cloud and thunder ornamentation, the similar sedan chair ride and bow game, the same seven-hole flute and the pentatonic scale in music, and even the folk remedies of drinking children's urine and eating tadpoles to defeat fire are also the same.
