Chapter 369: Artillery
Xinyang City. The Seven Princes and the General Changshun of Fangqiu joined forces together, with a million meritorious troops, besieged Xinyang City, where the Great Prince was located, for half a month, and finally the city was broken, the whereabouts of the Great Prince were unknown, and his life and death were unknown, and he disappeared with his henchmen Qi Lin and Shunping King Xiao Jing, however, it was rumored that Shunping King Xiao Jing secretly defected to the Three Princes.
At this time, it was the Seven Princes who sat on the throne in Xinyang City, and Zeng Fangzhou, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also became the current prime minister, but the actual power was much greater than the Seven Princes imagined.
The Seventh Prince was reclining on the dragon chair, and a beautiful palace maid was obediently held in her arms.
He said lazily: "That Chu Jing has been back for three days, and those troops in the northwest are also being transferred back to Renjin City, I'm afraid they are going to make a move against Yuanwang City and Black Sheep City." ”
Standing below is Zeng Fangzhou, although the Seven Princes intend to reduce Zeng Fangzhou's influence, but almost all capable generals are relatively close to Zeng Fangzhou, before the letter country is not stable, the Seven Princes also understand that Zeng Fangzhou cannot move.
Zeng Fangzhou said: "Your Majesty, although Chu Jing is strong, but after all, he is only a horse, and he is still attached to His Majesty's name, and now as long as the three princes are defeated, it is enough to successfully ascend the throne and become the emperor, and he will become the lord of the country of faith." ”
"Hmm. The Seventh Prince pushed the palace maid away, and after sitting up, he said seriously, "Yes, I also have this idea, so I let the northwest army move, however, Fang Qiu Guo is also a big problem, if it is just the previous agreement, I will not feel distressed, but I am afraid that they have other intentions, I think, let Fang Qiu Guo and Chu Jing compete, no matter what situation ends up in the end, it will be good for me." ”
"The three princes of the north......" Zeng Fangzhou asked.
The Seventh Prince sighed, "Without the third brother, I will have to face the world directly, who knows if they will suddenly send troops, you must know that it was a war provoked by our faith country that day, and I don't want to be retaliated against." ”
The current situation of Xinguo seems to be missing the two competitors of the eldest prince and the second prince, but at the border of the Chen soldiers of the Tianxia Kingdom, Fangqiu Kingdom is directly involved, and the situation is even less optimistic.
After Zeng Fangzhou retreated, he really wanted to discuss with Chang Shun about the Red Lotus Envoy Chu Jing, but the Seven Princes had many eyes and ears, and it was absolutely impossible to openly go to see the general of Fang Qiu Kingdom.
At this time, General Fang Qiu was stationed outside Xinyang City, mainly to avoid misunderstanding among the Seven Princes, and on the other hand, he had just finished the most difficult battle and rested on the spot for half a month.
"Report!" The soldier quickly ran into the camp tent, knelt on the ground, and said loudly, "There is an urgent message from Yuanwang City and Heiyang City, General Gu and General Sun have been captured, and the two cities have been lost!"
"What?" General Chang Shun suddenly stood up from his seat and exclaimed, "How can this be, can't you defend even a day? ”
After reading the complete information, General Chang Shun scolded in a low voice: "I have long known that the Seven Princes did not have a good heart to send Yuanwang City and Black Sheep City in vain!"
Chu Jing is not in Renjin City, this is the key to Chang Shun's willingness to take over the two cities of Yuanwang and Heiyang, and now Chu Jing suddenly appeared, and with the momentum of thunder, without any reaction at all, he connected the two cities.
Chang Shun was not thinking about the identity of Chu Jing Red Lotus's envoy, but about Gu Shikai's life, which was a 'companion', as well as the wishes of the soldiers of Fang Qiu Kingdom.
If this problem is not handled well, the morale of the army will be scattered, and it will be difficult for the soldiers to take it
。
"No, even if it's just for show, it's going to have to be a fight. Chang Shun had made up his mind, and immediately sent someone to ask the Seven Princes to fight, and naturally he was allowed.
And on the other side.
Chu Jing successfully captured Yuanwang City and Black Sheep City, and also captured two enemy generals, and part of the army in the northwest will arrive soon, and then it will be the time when the flames of war are ignited.
"Lord, the enemy general surnamed Gu said he wanted to see you. Deng Chanyu came in and said.
"See me?" Chu Jing guessed what conditions he was going to make, or surrender or something, and directly refused, "No, you just interrogate casually." ”
"Yes. Deng Chanyu stepped back.
Chu Jing unfolded a map of the country of faith, and now the power of the country of faith has changed greatly, except for the almost closed northwest, other places may be burned by war.
The forces of the Three Princes centered on Fengluo City, the Seven Princes and the forces of Fangqiu Kingdom centered on Xinyang City have been stationed in the Broken Mountain, facing off against the Three Princes across the desert, and it is these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses that make it impossible for the Three Princes to participate in the battle between the Great Prince and the Seven Princes in Xinyang City.
Now the southern part of the Kingdom of Xin is in a state of emptiness because its troops have been drained by the Seven Princes, but Chu Jing is not ready to make a move against those cities.
Chu Jing left the room and walked out.
"Chu Jing, why do you have time to come to us?" Xu Qian and Bai Lan were with Lian, looking at Chu Jing with some doubts, they had just won the battle and captured a lot of people, and they thought that Chu Jing would be very busy.
Chu Jing looked at Lian and said what he had done, "I want to ask you to build a batch of artillery." ”
The power of artillery is vividly demonstrated in the Sea Tiger Island against pirates, and in the face of ordinary people, it is an absolute weapon of mass destruction.
"This ......" Lian hesitated a little, "Isn't it too cruel to use artillery against those soldiers who don't even know martial arts?"
Xu Qian also said: "Yes, forget it, as long as you let the Shenlong projectile cannon shoot at the sky, they will definitely surrender obediently." ”
"Yes, a soldier who surrenders without a fight is just superior. Bai Lan said something he heard from Chu Jing.
Chu Jing shook his head, if Chu Jing's strength was really strong enough to defeat those who made the rules, then he could naturally do this, but no, even the world country would not send masters at will, of course, the masters would also fight in front of the battle, but any strong man who slaughtered ordinary soldiers would be sanctioned, and no strong man was willing to take this risk.
"You don't understand war, it's like a game, you have to play it within the rules, otherwise you will get additional punishment, as long as you treat soldiers as numbers, not people, then it will be better. ”
If Sophia was here, she would definitely be able to understand Chu Jing, but unfortunately she was taking a hot bath in the bathroom right now.
Lian finally agreed, in fact, there are still half of the cannons on the Blood Bones, although they are moored in the port of Tiannanfu, but if the Shenlong catapult cannons are allowed to go, one day is enough to go back and forth, and the craftsmen in the city can also imitate it at that time.
The reason why I came to let Lian make artillery is because of her successful experience on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is to maintain relationships.
Chu Jing began to arrange for people to collect various materials, in addition to the materials of gunpowder, but also to refine the materials of the Blood God Knife.
In addition to Yu Yuan's immortal body that is not in the Five Elements, it is the most powerful Blood Transformation Divine Knife, but it is a pity that Yu Yuan passed on the things that make his life to his disciple Yu Hua, and now Chu Jing's ability to inherit Yu Yuan is not available for the Blood Transformation Divine Knife.
It is not difficult to refine the Blood Transformation Divine Knife, but the difficulty is that it is an accessory to cultivation, and it is necessary to seal the knife into the furnace when cultivating, and there are three divine pills used to detoxify the sword and refine it.
And what Chu Jing lacks is time.
However, the Blood Transformation Divine Knife is like a flash of lightning, if it is hit by a knife mark, it will die at any time, even if the training time is short, the power drop is still a first-class artifact.
A day later, the Northwest sent 80,000 soldiers to come, as well as many generals, including Tanya, who had been sent from Renjin City, Ranji, a soldier from the Dark Realm, Cyno, a sorcerer from the Dark Realm, and Grimm, a strategist from the Dark Realm.
Of course, Murong Yixue and the others also came to Renjin City with them.
Chu Jing also returned to Renjin City, leaving only a small number of soldiers to garrison Yuanwang City and Black Sheep City, these two cities are no longer of much significance, before it was to express an attitude, but now the attitude is over, Chu Jing did not have the interest of building a high wall and accumulating grain, and slowly developing, so if he loses it, he will lose it, and then take it back.
It is worth mentioning that under Zhang Jiao's brainwashing offensive, the surrendered Fangqiu army, those Fangqiu people joined the Taiping Taoism one after another and became a member of the Yellow Turban Army under Zhang Jiao.
Chu Jing saw Murong Yixue.
Murong Yixue is still as noble as a fairy in the moon, and I don't know if Chu Jing preconceived to imprint the first impression in reality, or if it is really Xi Shi in the eyes of a lover.
"Chu ...... Pingxi Gong, I have completed the northwest patrol, and now I can hand over the task. "Murong Yixue is still cold and arrogant, and there has been no change because of Chu Jing's strength and power.
Chu Jing smiled and took the patrol token he had issued, and said, "Murong...... God Hunt, now that Xinyang City has been breached by the Seven Princes, and the six gates no longer exist, what are your plans?"
Murong Yixue frowned slightly, and said coldly: "The six gates will not be destroyed so easily, don't forget that there is still a prophet, as for the seventh prince, he colluded with Fang Qiu Guo and is not worthy of being a prince, I will probably go to the third prince first, help the third prince become the emperor of Xinguo, and re-establish the six gates." ”
"Hmm. Chu Jing nodded, Murong Yixue's thoughts he had long expected that there was an unpredictable prophet' forgetfulness machine in the six doors, and it was really difficult to say what the current situation was in the six gates.
"Fengluo City, where the three princes are located, is far away, and there is an army of the seven princes in the middle, so it is better for Murong Shenzhu to stay in Renjin City first, and Qin Yingran is also a royal bloodline, which is also a choice that can be loyal. ”
"Hmph!" Murong Yixue snorted coldly, "Aren't you from the Seventh Prince's group? I will never be in the company of a thief who destroyed the six doors." ”
"No, no, don't talk about it for the Seventh Prince, you should also know, I just fought a big battle with the army of Fangqiu Kingdom, and I also captured two enemy generals, at this point, our enemy is the same. ”
After some persuasion, Murong Yixue stayed, still her previous team, Mikoto Misaka, Deathbell, Condor Girl, etc., as the elite troops of the battlefield, it can be said that Chu Jing gave her a lot of authority.
In fact, Chu Jing just wanted to keep Murong Yixue by her side, and for the current Chu Jing, the combat power of her and her team was no longer very useful.
