The three captured assassins were eventually killed at the gunpoint of a little maid. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing the three corpses being dragged down by the guards like dead dogs, Mi Xu's face turned pale, he supported the old lady who had passed out in a coma, and stammered to Shangguan Xiu: "National ...... His Royal Highness, the little girl ......"

Shangguan Xiu yawned and said, "Let's discuss this matter another day, I'm tired." ”

"His Royal Highness Guogong......" Mi Xu was about to speak, Xiao Jue stepped forward and said expressionlessly: "Your Highness needs to rest now, Master Mi will come to visit another day, please go back!"

Mi Xu is not a fool, he can naturally see that Shangguan Xiu has no intention of releasing people at all, and even the detention of Xinyue and the Mi family caravan by the Pingguan defenders this time may be due to Shangguan Xiu's instructions, but what is the specific purpose of Shangguan Xiu's doing this, and what benefits he wants to get from the Mi family, he can't guess for a while.

He thought that if he provided such a big and luxurious house for Shangguan Xiu to live in, Shangguan Xiu would give him some face, but in fact, it was not the case at all, Shangguan Xiu refused to give him any face.

Mi Xu's face also sank, and he said, "Your Royal Highness, this mansion ......"

As soon as he started talking, Shangguan Xiu answered: "The feng shui of this house is really bad, I have only been staying for a few days, but in just a few days, there are as many as twenty-eight assassins entering the house to assassinate, tomorrow, Master Mi will take this house back, your Mi family's house, I dare not live anymore!"

Mi Xu's face changed, and he said in surprise: "Your Highness, this ......"

"Tomorrow, I'll stay somewhere else. Absolutely, send off!"

"Master Mi, please!" Xiao Jue waved his hand at Mi Xu. Mi Xu wanted to say something, but outside the pavilion, several guards walked in with knives and stood around Mi Xu, and the spirit knives they were carrying were still dripping with blood, the blood of the assassins.

Mi Xu's heart was shocked, he didn't dare to stay any longer, he glanced at Shangguan Xiu again, didn't say anything, and walked out with the old lady in his arms.

Seeing Mi Xu leave, Shangguan Xiu raised his hand slightly, Wu Yufei walked up to him, bent down, and said, "Follow up and see if Mi Xu went to the palace of Huang Zihao." ”

"Yes! Brother Xiu!" Wu Yufei agreed, his body was empty, and he disappeared.

Shangguan Xiu felt ridiculous when he thought about it, the people of Ningnan really hated themselves, these days, there were no less than 100 assassins who were executed by him, but the assassins who wanted to kill themselves were still one after another, and there was an endless stream, and the place where he stayed was simply regarded as a vegetable market.

"How many people have you killed this time?" With a cold voice, the holy woman walked in from outside the pavilion. Shangguan Xiu turned his head to look at her and said, "Wanjing, you disappeared all day. ”

"Hmm. The saint walked to the stone table and sat down with dignified and graceful movements.

"You little girl is too incompetent, be careful of being targeted by the people of Ningnan and see the flaws. Shangguan Xiu reminded with a smile.

"I'm going to be random. The saint said with peace of mind.

Shangguan Xiu sighed secretly, since he taught her to change randomly, the saint's courage seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, which was not necessarily a good thing for her.

He changed his words and said, "There are only three or four assassins today, and the number of assassins is not too many, which is much better than the previous two days. It seems that the people of Ningnan are not all afraid of death. ”

"Now, many people in the rivers and lakes are gathering to Tianjing. The holy woman lifted the teapot, poured herself a cup of tea, and continued: "These people from the rivers and lakes include people from Ningnan and people from the country of wind. Their goal seems to be the same, and there is only one, which is ......"

"That's me. Shangguan Xiu answered, he looked up and smiled, and said: "In the country of wind, that is my territory, no matter how much the people in the rivers and lakes hate me, they can't toss much wind and waves, but Ningnan is different, I am in Ningnan, just like duckweed in the water, without a foundation, the opportunity to kill me is naturally easy to find, and I can find a lot." ”

The holy woman held the teacup in both hands, took a slow sip of tea, and said, "If I were you, I would finish the affairs here as soon as possible, and I would not stay for a moment." ”

"So, there is only one Shangguan Xiu!" Shangguan Xiu said with a smile, seeing the holy woman roll her eyes, he restrained his smile and said, "I can't leave for the time being, Ningnan's affairs need to wait a few more days." ”

Shangguan Xiuyi was waiting for the response made by the eldest Sun Bohao, and secondly, he was also waiting for the Ningnan Imperial Court to discuss with him the plan to jointly send troops to Shah.

The holy woman no longer persuaded her, what she should say, she had already said it, and she had done it as a reminder, as for whether Shangguan Xiu listened or not, it was his business.

She put down the teacup and said softly: "Be careful yourself, for you, the current Tianjing is the real Longtan Tiger's Den." ”

Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and corrected: "For us!" He deliberately accentuated the word "us" and reminded the holy woman, don't want to stay out of the matter, now we are tied together, grasshoppers tied to a rope.

"Profiteers. The holy woman stood up and walked out of the pavilion with a flutter.

The next day, the Ningnan Imperial Court invited Shangguanxiu to the military field of the school in the suburbs to watch the drills of the Ningnan Army.

This colonel's military yard is located in the west of Tianjing, with a radius of at least dozens of miles, and the First and Second Army Corps of the Central Army of Ningnan are stationed nearby.

In the stands of the school's military field, Huang Ziyuan, Huang Zihao and the ministers of Ningnan were all present. Shangguan Xiu's seat was set up next to the two princes.

After Shangguanxiu arrived, the ministers present stood up one after another and bowed their hands. Shangguan Xiu smiled and returned the salute one by one. Everyone exchanged a few words of greeting and sat down one after another.

Zhang Jiuwei, who was sitting on the right hand side of Shangguan Xiu, said: "Your Royal Highness, this time it is my country's second army that participated in the exercise, my country's second army corps, which has a long history, has been established for four hundred years, and was formerly known as the Dangkou Army......

Zhang Jiuwei gushed about the history of the Second Army. Shangguan Xiu looked at the empty school military field below the stands, smiling, and didn't know if he was listening or not.

Amid the sound of drums, a cavalry team took the lead in entering the school military yard. This is a lightly armed cavalry, looking at the scale, there is enough to have a corps. The knights on horseback had no armor and wore simple and capable two-section military uniforms, with riding boots on their feet.

Their weapons were not strange spears, but all firearms, with long and narrow swords under their ribs, and a cartridge made of a belt crossed on their chest, and there were many small compartments on the sac, each of which contained a paper shell.

The equipment and dress of this cavalry regiment are very similar to the gendarmerie established by Shangguanxiu, and of course, this is also the trend of the development of the arms in the firearms age.

Firearms are powerful, steel armor, leather armor, and leather armor can no longer play a good protective role, but will cause a huge burden to the soldiers.

In this case, lightweight military uniforms gradually became the mainstream trend, and steel armor and leather armor were gradually eliminated.

The cavalry phalanx was lined up, and the knights on horseback walked proudly in front of the stands with their reins held and their chests held high.

Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes and looked closely, the sword used by the Ningnan Army was almost exactly the same as the sword in service in the Feng Army, it was no longer a plug-in type, but a buckle type, and the fire gun could still be fired after the sword was installed.

Obviously, this is an imitation of the Ningnan people who took the Fengjun sword as a sample. In this regard, Shangguan Xiu has nothing to say, at present, the speed of weapon replacement is extremely fast, no matter which country, as long as it develops a new type of weapon, it will be used by other countries for research as soon as possible, once it is thought that the improvement effect is good, it will be imitated on a large scale.

Ningnan copied Fengguo, Fengguo also copied Ningnan's, the two sides are half a catty, no one has to laugh at anyone's heart.

After the passing of the cavalry phalanx, the artillery battalion followed.

Ningnan's artillery technology has been quite mature, one of the most important for Shangguan Xiu is the giant cannon developed by Ningnan, the muzzle of the giant cannon is the size of a basin, the cannon body is more than five meters long, and the base below is equipped with sixteen wheels, which are pulled by twenty horses.

Just looking at the size of this giant cannon, it is daunting enough. Shangguan Xiu doesn't know much about what technologies are needed to make such a huge artillery, but such a huge cannon, unprecedented, must be Ningnan's secret weapon, and now the people of Ningnan take it out to show it in front of themselves, no need to ask, this is showing off to themselves, and doing force deterrence.

Shangguan Xiu was pondering in his heart, and Xin Jiyao, who was sitting behind him, leaned forward and said, "Lord Shangguan, this is the latest artillery piece developed by my country, called the Sky Shaking Cannon, Lord Shangguan would like to see its power?"

Subconsciously looked back at Xin Jiyao, who was triumphant, Shangguan Xiu smiled, laughing angrily, he said slowly: "It's okay, I also want to see how powerful this stupid and stupid big thing can be!"

The corners of Xin Jiyao's mouth were hooked, and she smiled weirdly. She raised her hand, called a soldier, and explained: "Lord Shangguan wants to see the power of the sky-shattering cannon, you go and inform General Meng." ”

The general Meng she said, named Meng Feiyun, is the commander of the Second Army in Ningnan, a famous general in Ningnan, known for his courage and good fighting, and good at fighting evil battles.

Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes, how could the Ningnan Imperial Court invite him to watch the drills, but let himself come to see the military parade, to show himself the strength of Ningnan.

However, it is indeed surprising that the people of Ningnan can make such a huge artillery, and based on this alone, Ningnan's research and manufacturing capabilities have surpassed the forge.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Xiu's heart sank a little.

Soon, Xin Jiyao's order reached Meng Feiyun, and under Meng Feiyun's order, the soldiers of the Second Legion pulled the giant cannon to the other end of the school military field.

Due to the large area of the school military field, sitting in the stands and looking at the location of the giant cannon, only a small black dot can be seen. Shangguan Xiu frowned, turned his head sideways and said, "General Xin, how can I see the power of the artillery clearly at such a distance?"

Xin Jiyao smiled confidently and said happily: "Is it far? Wait a minute, Lord Shangguan will know that such a distance is not too far." ”

Before Shangguan Xiu could figure out what she meant, the soldiers on the other side of the school military field had already led the horses pulling the cannons to a distance, and the sixteen wheels of the giant cannon were reinforced by more than a hundred soldiers and fixed on the ground.

Then, with a command, the fuse of the cannon was ignited, and suddenly, a loud bang was heard in the ear chakra, and a flash of fire appeared, and billowing smoke came out of the cannon cannon.

After about ten seconds, I heard an earth-shattering loud noise five miles away.

It was so far away, but sitting in the stands, I could still clearly feel the violent tremor of the ground, and five miles away, thick smoke billowed into the sky, and the ground had turned into a sea of fire.

Seeing this, Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei's faces changed greatly, even Shangguan Xiu couldn't help frowning, and his eyes showed surprise.
