Yue'er thought it was incredible.

"What, the carriage overturned and fell to his death?"

"Yes, he walked to the Bazi Bridge and the carriage overturned, and the man fell into the river and drowned."

Yue'er sneered in her heart, this must have been done by the Empress Dowager Liu A, the first emperor drove the expedition in person, and he brought firearms, how to use the command of people who are not proficient in it, isn't this creating an opportunity for Li Tianqi? If Ma Sheng hadn't died, then his fate would have been worse than that of the Ran family, Queen Mother, Queen Mother, you are really calculating!

"Ma Sheng died, and the gunpowder was never destroyed after that?"

"Later, the Emperor Taishang succeeded to the throne, Lord Sikong suggested to him, saying that these things are dangerous and should be destroyed, the Emperor Taishang adopted the suggestion of Lord Sikong, and ordered the destruction of those firearms, even the design drawings were burned, but these gunpowder are dangerous to deal with, and they have been placed in the cellar of Zongzheng Mansion, speaking of which, Prince Dongping has been worried about this matter, for fear that one day Zongzheng Mansion will be blown up, Lord Lin knows that Zongzheng Mansion has these gunpowder, otherwise he would not tell General Murong, General Murong ordered people to move out and bury them along the inner city. ”

Only then did Yue'er know the ins and outs of these gunpowders.

"Great, it's the last moment! Lord Lu, according to my speculation, Wan Yan A Shilan will definitely send people to attack Zongzheng Mansion again, we are a nail in his eyes, these dozen boxes of gunpowder just blew them up to the ground, and their bones are gone! ”

At that moment, Yue'er called Liu Jun and ordered to bury the gunpowder under the courtyard wall, three in the south, east and west, and a thick layer of gravel should be laid on top to protect the fuse, so that people must not ignite it easily.

Midnight.

It's late at night.

At this time, there was a fierce battle outside the city.

Yue'er guessed correctly, it was Jiangnan's reinforcements who came.

But this team is not the army of Zhao Zhen, Wei Xing and Yu Yuanxiang, but Yu Yuanxiang's second brother Xiong Zhang.

Xiong Zhang is a lucky general, after taking Yangzhou all the way to the north, almost did not encounter any interception, when he got the news that Yu Yuanxiang was seriously injured in Xuzhou, he was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, and he didn't care about Yu Yuanxiang to let him stay still, listen to the order of the dispatch, and rushed to the capital with five thousand cavalry, he wanted to avenge his eldest brother.

Guarding outside the South Gate today is Shiro Lord Wan Yan Licheng.

Wan Yan Licheng led 10,000 horses to camp at the south gate, when he got the news, saying that there was a cavalry of 5,000 people approaching, these people lit torches, did not hide their whereabouts at all, Wan Yan Licheng jumped up in anger, he didn't know who the person was, only knew that it was not Yu Yuanxiang, because Yu Yuanxiang was now blocked outside Chenliu Town.

Without waiting for Xiong Zhang to kill, Wan Yan Licheng led the army out of the camp, but as soon as the two cavalry fought, Wan Yan Licheng immediately realized that something was wrong.

The cavalry was so clever that they extinguished their torches before they could make contact.

When the two sides collided together, Wan Yan Licheng found that the cavalry who came each had a sledgehammer, which almost finished the mace on his side.

Wan Yan Licheng's lieutenant next to him was a fierce man, he saw a black horse rushing towards him, he didn't think about it, and howled and waved his mace to meet him.

The knight on the black horse opposite was very fierce, he was different from others, he used a cooked copper stick, and as soon as the two sides fought, Wan Yan Licheng's Mou Ke Jilie was hit in the head with a stick, and ten thousand peach blossoms bloomed.

It was Xiong Zhang himself who made the shot, his brute strength was not small, and the weight of this cooked copper stick was no lighter than those long-handled sledgehammers under his hands.

Wan Yan Licheng was taken aback, he thought that except for the Yu family's army, the Dawei army was vulnerable, and he couldn't imagine that Xiong Zhang's team was no weaker than Yu Yuanxiang's team.

In fact, Xiong Zhang's 5,000 men and horses were basically the main force of the Battle of Huangzhou, they trained in Ezhou for several months, and the formation was tight, Yu Yuanxiang handed over this team to Xiong Zhang, that is, he wanted him to take Yangzhou as soon as possible, but it was the cavalry that later fought with Wan Yan, and the weapons and formations were slightly inferior to Xiong Zhang's team.

Wan Yan's team was beaten to the ground, although his cavalry was far superior to Xiong Zhang, but there was no order in the dark, only the part of being beaten, and he could only ask for help from the city in a hurry, and at this time, it was the moment when General Jiagu and Dun Shizhan attacked Zongzheng Mansion.

Wan Yan A Shilan received Wan Yan Licheng's notice, and was startled, he didn't know how many reinforcements there were from outside the city, so he immediately ordered 50,000 horses to go out of the city to meet the battle.

Although Xiong Zhang has the advantage, but his heart is also beating the drum, he still doesn't know what the capital is like, seeing the big Beijing army from the city, thinking that the capital has fallen, can't help but roar sadly, although he is muddy, but he is not a fool, the enemy army is fighting, and if you don't go, you will be surrounded, so an order was given, and the whole army retreated.

If Hu San's fireworks bomb was still there, Yue'er would have been able to send a signal just now for Xiong Zhang to see, but unfortunately he lost it in a chaotic battle, and now the new fireworks bomb has not been made.

The sky was dark, Wan Yan Licheng did not dare to pursue, he suffered a big loss, and he was resentful.

When Dun Shizhan and General Jiagu learned that the incoming enemy was only about 5,000 people, they were stunned.

"Lord Shiro, what kind of people are this?"

"How do I know, and I didn't catch a prisoner!"

At this time, someone took a banner and ran over in a panic to report: "Lord Qiqi Shilang, this team of Dawei cavalry left a big banner, it is the Yu family army!" ”

Wan Yan Licheng was taken aback.

"What, is it the Yu family?"

When he saw the words on this banner, his body trembled for a while, and the embroidered word on this flag was a Yu character.

Xiong Zhang is Yu Yuanxiang's vanguard, and he left a banner with the word Yu to tell Wan Yan that the Yu family army is still there, and they will fight to the end.

Wan Yan Licheng's subordinates trembled when they heard that it was the Yu family army who was fighting with them just now, the Yu family army was simply terrifying, they used to be rampant and invincible on the grassland, but now they were actually pressed and beaten, and the other party still came and went freely.

In fact, Zhao Zhen took Yu Yuanxiang and Wei Xing, and after defeating Caizhou, he advanced all the way to the north, but the second prince Wan Yan Congwang was a powerful character, he suffered a big loss in Caizhou, and he did not mess up like Wan Yan Licheng, he fled to Chenliu Town to stop, collected the defeated soldiers, and organized a defense here.

Chen Liuzhen is only fifty miles away from Gale City, which is stuck on the main road from south to north, if Zhao Zhen does not take Chen Liu, he will directly relieve the siege of the capital, he will suffer from the enemy, so he has to stop and think about a strategy to break the enemy.

When Wan Yan A Shilan knew that Wan Yan Congwang was retreating to Chenliu, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately allocated 30,000 horses to him, asking him to defend Chenliu no matter what, as long as he captured the capital of Daqing, he could immediately turn around and go south.

At this time, Zhao Zhen's army was close to 80,000, in addition to the 50,000 he brought from Jiangnan, Yu Yuanxiang had 30,000 cavalry under his command, these 30,000 people were not trivial, all of them were elite, especially Zhong Xiu's Western Army, they were all angry and unstoppable.

But Wan Yan Congwang suffered a loss, has become very smart, he stuck to Chenliu, just don't fight, Yu Yuanxiang and Wei Xing lured the enemy several times, he was not fooled, so 80,000 horses stuck in Chenliu, although it was close at hand, but could not come in to relieve the siege, but Xiong Zhang, he set off from Xuzhou lightly, with 5,000 cavalry, from the road to the windy city, hit and run.

At dawn, a firework bomb bursts into the air.

It's a green firework.

Brilliant and bright.

Like a dream, like a fog.

When Hu San was making this firework bomb, he was holding a broken copper kettle in his hand.

A red sun rose into the sky under the cover of clouds, and it was a new day.

The first day of August.

Just after the hour, the Spring Warm Pavilion of the Imperial Palace was cleaned, although it was cleaned, it was still a little messy, and the air was filled with a bad smell, but no one cared about it.

In the middle of the pavilion stood a screen, on which only a thin veil was hung, almost transparent, and a young man sat behind the screen.
