Huo Si was respectfully invited into the Xuanzhou Mansion, Liu Xiao looked at his old subordinates, and there was an indescribable response in his heart.

"This is a peace letter from General Qian." Liu Xiao reluctantly took the thin envelope and opened it.

As long as the truce lasts for fifteen days, put the Yang waste back?

This condition is not difficult to agree, Liu Xiao was still counting on the lion of the Xuzhou army to open his mouth, and he would report to the imperial court, so that the waste could not come back.

The reluctance on his face turned into unwillingness, what a good opportunity. Liu Xiao, whose heart was like a scimitar, gritted his teeth and agreed to the conditions.

That's it, kill the one in front of you who negotiated peace, and the Xuanzhou army can still send the next one. If the next one writes the peace conditions on the banner and swaggers through the market, he will have a feud with the queen mother.

Liu Xiao took out his deputy marshal Jin Seal and stamped it heavily on the peace book.

On the 15th, which was quite peaceful, the environment of Mengxi County Ya Prison was still rancid, but Yang Bainuo's prison meal was changed from a bad one to a not bad one, and the young man with a sallow face gradually became a little more complex.

In Sumen County, the large army that originally retreated had basically returned to Mengxi County, and Shu Bai once again came to the statue of the female general and kowtowed three times.

Master, thank you for your good plan, this Nanwei army will return to their hometown in a few days, and the apprentice can be regarded as avenging you.

Fu Guang, who was still suspected of collaborating with the enemy, was left behind in Sumen County, while Shu Bai went to the shore of the river with a small force and more than 30 boxes of secret weapons to Mengxi County.

Yang Bainuo hasn't groomed himself for more than ten days, and now he has black ash on his face, his hair is stuck together because he hasn't been washed for many days, and his white face has a short blue beard.

Qian Tianhe personally escorted him and walked out of the south gate of Mengxi County. The dim environment of the dungeon for many days made him quite sensitive to the sunlight, and the tingling sensation made him squint uncomfortably.

He walked numbly, from north to south, until the man behind him let go of his restraints, and he felt the preciousness of freedom for the first time.

Qian Tianhe turned over his horse and rode back to the city alone. Yang Bainuo was brought back to the city by the soldiers who came to meet him from the Nanwei army.

In the round bamboo tube, there is the hope of the Xuanzhou army to win in one fell swoop, which is the formula that Shu Bai found in Sumen County more than ten days ago, a brand new gunpowder formula.

The fireworks are gorgeous, and although there are occasional accidents, most of them do not hurt people's lives. In all dynasties, there has never been a shortage of such warlike people who have modified the gunpowder formula, but the lethality is not satisfactory.

If you can't kill the enemy camp with a single blow, but just set the enemy camp on fire, using firecrackers is far less convenient than using this strong liquor pine oil.

What's more, the two kinds of miscanthus and sulfur in the gunpowder ingredients are rare things, and it is extremely difficult to collect.

Ke Shubai found Xi Nuo's codex a few days ago, which recorded in detail the battle of the water seven years ago. The last page is the gunpowder formula researched by Xi Nuo back then.

Shu Bai wrote according to the codex, took the raw materials that he had collected with great difficulty, and conducted experiments in secluded streets and alleys with a dilapidated old wall in Sumen County.

The rumbling sound was accompanied by bursts of yellow ash, and the old wall fell in response, and Shu Bai felt excited.

This damn war can end early.

Knowing the latest gunpowder recipe, Shu Bai quietly tore off the last page of the codex and threw it into the burning lamp.

It was time to go to Jiangzhou again, and Shu Bai, who had asked for leave, rode to Jiangzhou.

This time, he pretended to be a merchant walking the streets.

"This time, I have something to ask you for." Qinglan listened to the man's whisper, her eyes picking up the delicate things on the stall.

"I need you to help me quickly collect miscanthus and sulfur, but it really can't work, and the firecrackers and fireworks that have already been made can also be used."

Qinglan, who knows the rules quite well, didn't ask much about the reason. "In a hurry? How long does it last? ”

"Ten days."

"The goods are transported to Yifeng County, and I will pick them up."

Qinglan took the delicate rouge box in Shu Bai's hand, paid the silver money, and continued to visit the market with Hongli.

Shu Bai, who rushed back to Sumen County from Jiangzhou, found Qian Tianhe at dusk that day.

"General, I don't know if the general has thought of the next counteroffensive plan." Qian Tianhe looked at the posterior who was saluting in front of him, and knew that he was here to offer a plan.

"I had a preliminary idea and wanted to hear different opinions."

"I have a heavy firepower weapon, and I may be able to defeat the enemy army in one fell swoop and end the battle."

Shu Bai did not tell Qian Tianhe the specific composition of this weapon, but only demonstrated it with the remaining materials from last time.

Qian Tianhe looked at this magical black powder, and his excitement was beyond words. "This is a real artifact, I don't know what the ingredients are?"

"This is what I found from Master's relics a few days ago, it is a kind of black ore in Xishan, which is very rare, but its powder ignites when it encounters fire, and it can be moved to reclaim the sea."

"Rare?"

"I searched for it according to Master's Codex yesterday and found a number of black stones in a cave in Xishan, which may be able to end the battle quickly."

Hearing that Qian Tianhe, who had turned to joy and sorrow, gave up the plan of action he had drawn up before, and he was going to borrow the living Yang Bainuo to give Shu Bai this time and again to collect ore to buy time.

Now, Yang Bainuo has been released, and the Nanwei military camp is not at peace. The black ore powder was also transported into Mengxi County.

Tonight, whether it is sunny or gloomy, it will be illuminated by the sky-high firelight.

Catapults, ladders, 30,000 good sons and daughters, Qian Tianhe went out of Mengxi County with confidence.

A rumbling sound sounded, and one after another fiery red flowers bloomed in the city of Xuanzhou.

Liu Xiao watched the round "boulder" fall, the roof of a house instantly scattered, a big hole appeared on the north wall of the city of Xuanzhou, and the soldiers defending the city on the city wall instantly became meat paste.

This was an unusual battle, the Xuanzhou army seemed to be helped by the gods, and if there was divine power, the ant-like soldiers of Nanwei were almost completely annihilated.

Liu Xiao, who spared his life, smelled the smell of death, he changed into the clothes of ordinary soldiers, and rode straight to the south gate.

The ending had already been written by the strong, and the soldiers of Nanwei fled in all directions.

They fought for the fleeing horses, even pointing their spears at their own. They forget about hierarchy and inferiority, and follow the most primitive instincts to snatch the opportunity to live.

More than 20 boxes of gunpowder were only half used, and the sky above the city of Xuanzhou had been dyed crimson by the firelight. That's the color of fire, and it's the color of blood.

Qian Tianhe continued to pursue the remnants of the Nan Wei army with more than 10,000 people, and this time, he wanted to make the Nan Hao army unable to fight again within ten years.

Shu Bai wore a silver armor today, but there was no blood on it, and this battle was far smoother than he imagined. The power of this gunpowder was far more terrifying than he imagined.

He took 20,000 soldiers into the city of Xuanzhou. The city of Xuanzhou, which had been destroyed by many fire attacks, was completely in ruins.

He looked at the scene around him, and there was a sour welling in his heart.

After this battle, Xi Shan, who has raised him for many years, will not be peaceful. There should be no shortage of greedy people who go into the mountains to search for the legendary gods.
