Chapter 33: Shooting Stars

There are only a few breaths left in his life, and Yu Wenwen's head is blank, not because he was frightened, but because he was deceived, he was angry, and his brain was burned into a blank ground, and then he did not hesitate to slap his head.

Women's clothing bigwig... The man disguised as a woman was smashed to the ground with blood all over his face, and Yu Wenwen then stretched out his hand into his arms and thundered.

Thunder, in fact, is a kind of explosives are a kind of general term, this explosive is filled with black powder, there is no fixed size, with different uses of different sizes, from trebuchets used in dozens of pounds of thunder, to manpower thrown several pounds of thunderbolts.

But even if it was a thunderbolt in front of him, Yu Wenwen couldn't immediately throw it more than ten steps away, because there was not enough time, so...

Yu Wenwen pinched the burning fire twist with his thumb and forefinger, and just snuffed out the flames, and Zhang Yu, who was scared into a cold sweat, couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

To detonate the thunder, you need to light the fire twist (fuse), so if there is no fire outside, the soldier who strikes with the thunder must hold a torch or carry a fire sickle so that it can be ignited at any time.

In this way, there are restrictions on the use of thunderbolts in some cases.

For example, in a night attack, lighting a torch is too ostentatious, and using a fire sickle to fire will also expose your position, or if the cavalry wants to throw thunder to kill the enemy, you must carry a torch, which is very inconvenient.

Therefore, Yu Wenwen improved the detonation device, using the pull fuse, relying on the friction and heat of the glass fragments in the ignition tube to ignite the gunpowder column in the tube.

The thunderbolt with such an improved fuse was only equipped by the Shannan army, and the thunderbolt used by the man dressed as a man was still detonated by a 'traditional' fire twist.

So theoretically speaking, extinguishing the fire twist before it burns out can avoid the explosion of thunder, and Yuwen Wen is in a hurry to pinch the fire twist with his hands, but there is not much time left, and it must be extinguished with a pinch.

So as soon as the thumb and index finger were forced, they achieved a miracle of strength.

Surprised, surprised?

The man dressed as a woman, his nose was bleeding profusely at this time, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this situation, because he ate a head hammer, he was in a trance, looking at the thunder in his hand that had been extinguished, and he didn't know what to do next.

Zhang Yu had already thought about it, and pounced on him to restrain him, and the other guard threw away the thunder, and then lifted it up with his companions, Yuwen Wen asked menacingly: "What about people?" What about people? ”

Seeing the other party's blank expression, Yu Wenwen changed his words: "What about the Son of Heaven?" Where's the Queen!! ”

The man had a stiff mouth and puffed out his anger and said, "No... I don't know..."

"Bang", Yuwen Wen smashed his fist on the other party's face, and then turned around and ran to the palace, he figured it out, just shouted so loudly, since no one in the convoy answered, it means that Wei Chi Chifan is still in the palace and has not come out.

He can't waste time, now it's important to rush to the palace to save people, Zhang Yu saw this and led people to follow to ensure Yuwenwen's safety, but at the same time he didn't forget to observe the surrounding situation.

In the scuffle next to the convoy, their own side had a clear upper hand, and there was a commotion all around, many figures were shaking in the firelight, not rushing to the palace, but running out, Zhang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and ran forward quickly.

Several more soldiers rushed up with shields, blocked in front of Yuwenwen, and rushed into the gate of the palace first.

The situation in the palace is unknown, and it is very likely that there are enemy soldiers in ambush, and they want to ensure the safety of King Xiyang by means of the palace room, so they dare not take it lightly.

However, after the group rushed into the palace, they found that there were black holes everywhere, and only a few lanterns were docked under the eaves like fireflies, where was the chaos that Yu Wenwen imagined.

The palace is the place where the Son of Heaven stays, even at night, there must be lights, the bedroom is not lit, and there are always some lanterns outside, otherwise where is the style of the Son of Heaven?

However, at this time, there was not the slightest movement in several large houses, there were no panicked guards outside, there were no eunuchs who were neither male nor female, only a few women, who ran away crying and shouting when they saw them breaking in.

Yuwen Wen was anxious and was about to rush up to catch someone, but was hugged by Zhang Yu.

"Let go! What do you want to do! ”

"Lord Lang! You have to beware of hidden arrows, don't risk your life, let the guards arrest people! ”

After Zhang Yu desperately pulled Yuwenwen to the shield, several guards rushed out and grabbed the panicked woman.

Yu Wenwen stretched out his hand and pulled a woman, roaring and asking, "What about people?" What about the Son of Heaven? What about Queen Di? ”

"Ahh

"Say! Otherwise, the widow will kill you!! ”

"Ahh Your Majesty.... Your Majesty" The woman was constantly shaken by Yuwenwen, almost being shaken apart, and finally said the words: "Your Majesty is gone..."

"Where did you go? How long has it been gone? ”

"To the north, to Shaoling... It's been a day..."

Yuwen Wen let go of his hand when he heard this, pulled his legs and ran out, the woman said that his son, that is, the Son of Heaven, went north, walked for an hour, and now he is chasing back....

What the? Gone for a day?

Only then did he come back to his senses, remembering that the woman had said 'walked for a day' instead of 'walking for an hour', and where could he catch up with the distance of a day.

But Yu Wenwen didn't give up, he felt that this woman must be cheating, but after asking several other women, what he said was the same.

These women are palace maids, with the Son of Heaven driving south, the Son of Heaven did live in the palace, but then the prime minister contracted a cold, the original condition has improved, but the condition suddenly deteriorated two days ago, and the accompanying civil and military officials decided to invite the Son of Heaven, the Queen Mother, Queen Yi and the Prime Minister to return to the capital north.

The team set off early yesterday morning, because they were in a hurry, and many items in the palace of the Son of Heaven did not have time to be packed, so a few of them stayed to finish up, and the carriages at the gate of the palace were loaded with items today and ready to leave early tomorrow morning.

That is to say, tonight, the Son of Heaven, the Queen Mother, Queen Yi and the Prime Minister were not in the camp, and because the Son of Heaven and the Prime Minister returned to the north, the six rates of the forbidden army and the escort team also left.

Hearing this, Yu Wenwen only felt incredulous, he thought that these palace maids were lying, trying to trick him into giving up the pursuit, so he insisted on leading the soldiers to get on their horses and chase them out, but those stubborn soldiers outside the palace also said something similar after they were captured.

These soldiers were in charge of guarding the carriage tonight, and when they saw that among the enemy horsemen rushing over, someone shouted that it was the king of Xiyang, so they decided to fight hard and fight for a great fortune.

A soldier saw that the battle situation was not good, so he approved the clothes of a palace maid and got into the carriage with a thunderbolt, he originally wanted to fish in troubled waters, and when the thief approached, he used a dagger to plot and then use the thunder to get out of trouble.

As a result, in the chaos, the dagger fell, and the person became a "suicide" with a thunderbolt in his arms.

When Yu Wenwen heard this, all the strength in his body was dispersed, as the so-called hope is greater, the greater the disappointment, looking up at the night sky, he wanted to say something but couldn't say it.

The snowflakes falling in the sky fell on his face, and although there were clouds in the night sky at this time, some starlight could be seen from among the clouds.

In the starry sky between the clouds, there seemed to be a meteor streaked by, and Yu Wenwen's face had a little liquid across his face, I don't know if it was snow melted by body heat, or some other liquid.
