Chapter 158: Return to Beijing

Capital.

An urgent report from the Wasteland reached Emperor Qianwu's desk.

After reading the content of the emergency report, Emperor Qianwu frowned.

"Chen Jiande just received Nangong Changming's request for help, and a thousand evil beasts attacked the city, this is too coincidental, right? There must be something strange in it! ”

Gao Dali bowed and said: "The old slave also feels that there is something wrong with this matter, and the old slave will immediately send someone from Dongchang to investigate this matter!" ”

Emperor Qianwu nodded, rubbing his eyebrows and having a headache.

The Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the bold words of the king's death were said, which also made him determined to fight the barbarians.

But when the war really began, it was very tricky for him.

No matter how good the idea is, there will always be various problems when it is implemented, and these days he is deploying troops and arranging things to feed the war with war.

The fierce reaction of the barbarians also surprised him, and now that the war has begun, there is no way out, and there is no way out, but to fight to the death.

Sighing, Emperor Qianwu paid attention to the urgent report again, and said with a smile: "This Xiao Jiu can really surprise me again and again, the urgent report said that Xiao Jiu secretly shot and didn't know what he used to repel the evil beasts outside the wasteland, saying that there was a dense thunder sound, and he didn't bring artillery when he left, it seems that he was hiding something good!" ”

Hearing this, Gao Dali's heart tightened.

Could it be that Your Majesty is suspicious again?

He raised his eyelids and observed Emperor Qianwu's expression, pondered his words and said: "What should be used is gunpowder, the same thing as the original fried carp mountain in Shangzhou, this majesty knows, I believe that the Nine Emperors did not deliberately conceal it." ”

After speaking, Gao Dali carefully observed Emperor Qianwu's expression.

Emperor Qianwu glanced at Gao Dali and scolded with a smile: "Dog minion, what are you thinking?" Xiao Jiu, that bastard thing, can't wait to live in Baishi City for the rest of his life, and even say that the emperor dog is not a bastard, how can I be suspicious of him? ”

Since Li Changfeng came to the capital, he has been bent on making money, and has never dealt with the Chinese military officials of the DPRK to form a party for personal gain, what can he think?

Even if he was engaged in the artillery battalion and musket battalion, he still rushed to urge Li Changfeng to move, and he went every once in a while, and he didn't care at all, and he had to spur him from time to time.

Emperor Qianwu even hoped that Li Changfeng could covet the position of unification, perform well like other princes, make meritorious contributions, and make a career.

As for Li Changfeng's treatment of things that can also make thunder sounds, Emperor Qianwu naturally thinks that it must have something to do with gunpowder, but the technology is not mature enough, so the former did not tell himself.

Otherwise, with Li Changfeng's greedy nature, why don't you hurry up and negotiate with him to sell it to Daqian to make money?

Seeing Emperor Qianwu say this, Gao Dali breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wise!" ”

Emperor Qianwu didn't continue the topic, sighed and said: "Without Xiao Jiu, this kid is talking to me all day long, I'm really a little uncomfortable, speaking of which, that kid has been away from the capital for some days, I don't know how things are handled." ”

Gao Dali smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why should you be in a hurry, Your Highness will definitely return to Beijing immediately after dealing with the affairs over there." ”

Emperor Qianwu smiled coldly and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? When that stinky boy was in the capital, he thought about going back to Baishi City all day long, and he was afraid that he might not want to come back after the matter was dealt with, and he could delay it for a day. ”

Gao Dali laughed dryly: "It's not impossible. ”

"Humph!" Emperor Qianwu snorted coldly and said, "Spread my will, let that stinky boy return to Beijing as soon as he finishes dealing with the affairs of the spies in Baishi City!" ”

Now that the Great Cadres and the barbarians have started a war, although there are bold words, the battlefield is familiar with all changes, and no one can say whether the strategy of using war to support war can be accomplished.

Therefore, it is the most important thing at the moment for the artillery battalion to form a combat force that can change the tide of battle.

And to accomplish this, there is no one else who can do it except Li Changfeng.

Therefore, Emperor Qianwu always looked forward to Li Changfeng returning to Beijing as soon as possible.

Gao vigorously bowed and said, "The old slave obeys the order!" ”

Gao Dali was about to draft the decree, but was stopped by Emperor Qianwu: "Let people keep an eye on the Beijing Research Institute, even a fly can't fly in, to ensure that the secrets inside are foolproof." Also, Xiao Jiu's industry is also closely watched, if anyone dares to secretly make a bad move, they will clean it up to me, lest that stinky boy come back and complain about me! ”

……

Just two days after the holy decree was issued, and before the time reached Baishi City, another urgent report from Baishi City arrived on Emperor Qianwu's desk.

When Emperor Qianwu saw at least 10,000 evil beasts gathering to attack the city, he couldn't help but be startled, and sat up from the dragon chair with a sigh of surprise.

"So many evil beasts?!"

"This is too abnormal!"

"How can White Rock City resist it?!"

Emperor Qianwu conquered the world, what wind and waves have not been seen, his mind and bearing are very people's reach, has always been Mount Tai collapsed in front of the color does not change.

It was the first time Gao Dali saw it like a gaffe, and he couldn't help but show a look of surprise and asked, "Your Majesty, how many evil beasts are there?" ”

"According to the report, there are at least 10,000 heads!"

"What!?"

Gao Dali exclaimed, his face turned pale instantly, and he hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, is Your Highness okay?!" ”

He had seen how tall and majestic the walls of White Rock City were, and he knew that White Rock City was garrisoned by artillery, but it was ten thousand evil beasts!

Such a terrifying number of evil beasts, not to mention the White Rock City, even the capital may not be able to withstand it, and the corpses alone are enough to pave a slope that rushes to the top of the city wall.

If the city is really broken, can Li Changfeng still live?

Emperor Qianwu glanced at Gao Dali, swallowed hard, and said in disbelief: "Changfeng is fine, not even a single evil beast has attacked the city wall, the casualties are almost negligible, a total of 4,842 have been killed, plus those who have been blown into pieces and cannot be counted, it is conservatively estimated that 5,000 evil beasts have been killed!" ”

Gao Dali's body shook, and the whole person fell into a sluggish state, shaking his head and muttering, "How is it possible!" How is this possible, that's ten thousand evil beasts! More than half of the dead and wounded, is this something that people can do? Could it be that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is really a god descending from the heavens?! ”

Emperor Qianwu was also incredulous.

However, there are two urgent reports.

One was sent by the master of Ouchi, and the other was sent by the Imperial Forest Army.

Although the two urgent reports are expressed in different ways, there is no difference in their main contents, which is enough to prove the authenticity of this urgent report.

Emperor Qianwu believed that no one would dare to deceive him, whether it was a master of the Great Inner or the Imperial Forest Army, so many people had seen it, and it was too simple to think of the investigation and verification.

But it's also unbelievable!

Emperor Qianwu took a deep breath, forcibly calmed himself down, and looked at it carefully again from beginning to end, and gradually showed a sudden look on his face.

According to the newspaper, the walls were ablaze and the sound of thunder rang all night.

When they clearly felt the evil beast approaching the city wall, the sound of thunder that was somewhat different from the previous one after another sounded, and a large number of evil beasts roared sadly.

After dawn, when they walked out of White Rock City to collect the corpse of the evil beast, they found a large number of arm-thick steel arrows stuck in the corpse of the evil beast.

They concluded that it was fired by a ballista, and said that such a powerful ballista was something they had never heard of before.

Moreover, they also found that there were steel balls, iron nails and other things in the corpse of the evil beast, and they didn't know how they appeared inside.

Through these details, Emperor Qianwu probably understood how Li Changfeng resisted the beast tide, and suddenly the whole person became a little excited.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

Emperor Qianwu shouted three times in a row, and immediately said to Gao Dali: "Make another holy decree, let Xiao Jiu return to Beijing immediately, there must be no mistake!" ”

Such a brilliant record!

Although he had seen the power of artillery before, he had no idea how to use this strategic-level weapon in actual combat.

And Li Changfeng's repulsion of more than 10,000 beasts this time is undoubtedly an extremely successful actual battle, which has very important reference significance.

If an artillery battalion is built according to this idea, then the combat effectiveness will be very amazing, what is the point of a mere barbarian?

Moreover, Emperor Qianwu wanted to get his hands on another secret weapon made of explosives and Li Changfeng's terrifying ballista.

Although Gao Dali did not see the specific content of the emergency report, he also understood what Li Changfeng's brilliant record represented, and he was very excited.

"Your Majesty, the old slave will pass the decree!"

……

White Rock City.

Li Changfeng had already received the first holy decree from Emperor Qianwu.

Now he didn't want to go back, so he said that the matter of the spy had not been investigated clearly and prevaricated.

The eunuch had no choice but to put down the decree and return to Beijing to resume his life.

It didn't take long for the men of the Survey Corps to return.

To Li Changfeng's disappointment, the survey corps did not find any clues.

Li Changfeng was also helpless in this regard, so he could only convince himself that this matter involved a transcendent existence such as a barbarian god.

At this time, the second decree came.

The wording of the holy decree this time was much harsher and more urgent than last time, and Li Changfeng knew that he would no longer have a way to continue to stay in White Rock City.

Before leaving, Li Changfeng went to the backyard pond to meet the old monster and told him to take care of the scientific research institute.

The old monster was noncommittal about this, but asked that Wang Tiezhu be left behind, and he should teach him carefully.

Li Changfeng thought for a while and agreed, telling Wang Tiezhu not to forget to learn the barbarian language, and then sent some thunder cavalry to garrison the oil field, and then set off towards the capital under the escort of the Imperial Forest Army and the Ouchi guards.

Although the successive beast tides in Huangfu and Baishi City were sent to Emperor Qianwu in the form of secret reports, it was impossible to hide such a big thing, and it soon became known to everyone.

Li Changfeng repelled the evil beasts in the Wasteland, after all, there were only a thousand in number, and it was not too big to be acceptable.

But in White Rock City, it was really a bit terrifying to repel more than 10,000 beast tides, and everyone who heard the news was shocked.

After Li Chengye heard the news, a huge wave rolled up in his heart, and the whole person was stunned on the spot, and it took a lot before he came back to his senses.

He immediately sent someone to invite his uncle Murong Changkong over, and Murong Changkong also had a look of shock on his face that could not be concealed.
