After Zhang Hao heard Hu Yinglan's words, he was stunned for a while. Then he slowly reacted, "Blow up ......the Jiuyang Sect?" Sister Hu, although I haven't seen the mountain gate of the Jiuyang Sect with my own eyes, let's not talk about how big the mountain gate of the Jiuyang Sect is for the time being.

Let's talk about the Great Elder of the Nine Yang Sect, who is said to be a master of the Transformation Period.

If we blow up the Jiuyang Sect, I'm afraid that the Zhang family won't survive the next day!"

Hu Yinglan looked at Zhang Hao and didn't speak, but her eyes were very firm: I'm not joking with you.

But Zhang Hao also looked at Hu Yinglan and didn't speak. Blowing up the Jiuyang Sect? This is unrealistic. This is not something that can be decided by patting the head, Jiuyang Sect is not Xinglin Hall, this is an existence that is older than the country of Qixia, but it is not a soft persimmon.

After staring at each other for a long time, Hu Yinglan snorted coldly again: "Coward." ”

Zhang Hao shook his head: "It's not a coward, but out of a rational consideration." Inside the Jiuyang Sect, and even around it, it must be the Longtan Tiger's Den!

In my opinion, it is time to isolate the Nine Yang Sect and besiege the Nine Yang Sect.

Although the Nine Yang Sect is powerful, it also has to communicate with the outside world. If we besiege and not attack, the Jiuyang Sect will gradually decline. If the Nine Yang Sect takes the initiative to attack, we will destroy them on the periphery, without the Jiuyang Sect having an advantage.

When the living force of the Nine Yang Sect is almost wiped out, it will be time for us to attack.

In fact, the most important thing is that we need time now. The Zhang family needs time to develop, and the country of Qixia also needs time to breathe. ”

Hu Yinglan looked at Zhang Hao again for a long time, and then snorted coldly, "Sounds very reasonable." Well, how about you and I go and see the regent?"

Zhang Hao thought about it and nodded. "It's good that I just have a lot to do with the princess...... Ahem, the regent discusses. It just so happened that there were three people on my side who were introduced to the Regent. ”

"What person?" Hu Yinglan was very vigilant. Now that the princess has just become regent, the country of Qixia is in chaos, and she can't afford to toss more.

Zhang Hao smiled: "Don't worry, it must be a useful person." Are you still worried that I will be bad for the regent?"

Hu Yinglan looked at Zhang Hao for a while, suddenly thought of something, and immediately smiled mysteriously. "Well, you can bring someone over. But let me say it first, you must not bring anyone near the regent. And if something goes wrong, you're the only one who asks!"

"Of course, of course. ”

Zhang Hao agreed, and turned around and took Xu Jie, Yan Qing, Zheng You and Hu Yinglan to the imperial capital together.

Before leaving, Zhang Hao looked back at his door, and suddenly sighed with some emotion - in fact, I just want to develop quietly, practice by the way, and have an immortality, but I can't always be quiet.

Hu Yinglan took out the talisman seal of the Wind Escape Technique, and a clear wind swept Zhang Hao and the others away quickly; every time he advanced a distance, Hu Yinglan replenished the talisman seal of the Wind Escape Technique, and the flight speed was as fast as lightning.

It was only ten minutes before Zhang Hao saw Ninghe County flashing by, and then he walked all the way to see the flowers, but he also enjoyed the joy of the harvest on the vast farmland. Before you know it, it's autumn harvest time.

After more than two hours of galloping, a magnificent city appeared in front of Zhang Hao. The three big characters of "Guangling City" are hung high at the city gate, and there are three small characters below: West City Gate.

Compared with the Yunhaiguan that Zhang Hao saw, the capital of the country of Jinyang, and the Jingshan City of the country of Jinyang, it was still slightly insufficient. But the heavy blue-black color brought heaviness and domineering to Guangling City.

This is a wall built of black rock, almost fifteen zhang high, that is, about fifty meters. Such a majestic city wall is like a green dragon, stretching across the field of vision, much higher than the surrounding hills.

The walls are full of traces of time, and are crawling with mottled mosses, roses, creepers, and other vines. But these plants can only climb to a height of twenty or thirty meters.

On the surface of the city wall, there was a faint wave of formation, and a hazy light almost enveloped the entire city.

"In front of you is the imperial capital and Guangling City. Hu Yinglan pointed ahead, quite proud - soil buns, shocked.

I didn't want Zheng You to see it, but he was a little disappointed and said, "This city is not big...... Woohoo......"

Xu Jie covered Zheng You's mouth and sneered: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my friend will talk nonsense, don't mind." ”

A few black lines appeared on Hu Yinglan's head, and he no longer introduced Guangling City, and walked forward with everyone. After entering the imperial capital, they walked about six or seven miles forward along the bluestone paved road, and everyone stopped under a magnificent city wall again.

Compared to the outer city, the inner city is much shorter, but the formation on the city wall is more dense, and the ripples of the formation faintly shimmer with a metallic luster. The soldiers who were already patrolling the gates of the city walls were at least in the foundation building period.

"Here, they're all Praetorian Guards. Hu Yinglan explained coldly and took the lead to walk forward. Immediately, someone came out to check Hu Yinglan's identity.

It took a lot of effort for Zhang Hao to finally enter the inner city. The last time he went to the Kingdom of Jinyang, Zhang Hao couldn't enter the inner city, that is, the palace. This time, Zhang Hao finally saw the appearance of this world's imperial palace.

Behind the city walls, there are rows of rugged and magnificent buildings. There is no imaginary luxury, more simplicity, but there is a faint domineering in the simplicity.

All the buildings are angular and unyielding, with little softness in sight. The foundation is a blue and black rock, and although the pillars of the gate are vermilion, most of the carvings on them are in the form of fierce tigers and dragons.

On the upturned eaves, there is a roaring kiss, and the legendary nine sons of the dragon are shaped with a bit of a wolf howling moon.

The roof of the palace building is not a golden glazed tile, but a thick, almost blue-black deep-sea color.

All around were black-armored guards, and their weapons were either long or spear, and the blades of the weapons were shining with cold light.

Being in such a palace, Zhang Hao's heart suddenly rose with an indescribable fighting spirit. Faintly Zhang Hao understood why the princess was such a strong character.

But Zhang Hao is also very curious, how did such an environment create a person like the prince?

Zhang Hao, the coup d'état in the palace, doesn't know for the time being, but at least he knows: the former crown prince is a mud that can't support the wall......! Pretty good!

Zhang Hao observed as he walked, but he was more and more amazed.

Rough and atmospheric, heavy and domineering, but there is a sense of war in the simplicity. It's less like a royal palace and more like a general's palace. Thinking of the environment of the country of Qixia, Zhang Hao had to nod in admiration.

After a series of chaos, under the sudden attack of the country of Jinyang, the country of Qixia still held on and maintained enough combat effectiveness, which is not accidental.

A country that can abandon luxury and enjoyment, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and always be ready for anything, is difficult to defeat easily.

Zhang Hao felt that he had come to the right place today, and seeing such a palace suddenly made Zhang Hao have an indescribable confidence in his heart: the country of Qixia will inevitably defeat the country of Jinyang!

Hu Yinglan did not take Zhang Hao to the main hall, at this time, the super meeting had already ended, and it was almost noon. A female guard came over to explain to Hu Yinglan, and Hu Yinglan took Zhang Hao and others to the east side of the palace.

After walking for a while, I came to a beautiful scenery of the imperial garden, on the rockery in the center of the imperial garden, there is a simple and fresh pavilion, and a domineering figure is sitting in the pavilion.

Zhang Hao's eyes widened in shock. The figure in the pavilion is Princess Liu Xinyu. But at this time, she was dressed in a black gown, and she was discussing something with the prime minister and other key officials standing on both sides.

The black gown is very heavy, and the faint gold wire outlines a looming phoenix, and the luxury reveals a domineering spirit that cannot be described in words. Liu Xinyu's temperament, under this phoenix pattern, has undergone an indescribable sublimation.

Seeing Liu Xinyu like this, a strange thought suddenly rose in Zhang Hao's heart: This dress fits very well! It seems that Liu Xinyu was born to wear such clothes.

Hu Yinglan asked Zhang Hao and the others to wait at the gate of the Imperial Garden, and she walked over to report in small steps. Liu Xinyu looked up at Zhang Hao and the others, nodded, and Hu Yinglan walked back in small steps and invited Zhang Hao and the four of them to come over.

Walking through the path covered with flower petals, passing by the rough stone bridge without any carving, startling a few birds, firmly stepping on the rockery and walking into the pavilion, Zhang Hao once again saw Liu Xinyu up close.

Zhang Hao took Xu Jie and the three of them to meet the regent together.

Liu Xinyu slowly raised her head and swept away, Liu Xinyu's face at this time had an indescribable indifference, and finally her eyes stared at Zhang Hao for a while, with a faint smile on her face, and slowly spoke: "This time Xingchang County is a big victory, thank you very much for the Zhang family's contribution." I am also very grateful to the Zhang family for their support to the country in the past few months.

I heard that this victory in Xingchang County was due to the contribution of artillery. I wonder if you can explain the artillery?"

Several officials around him also looked at Zhang Hao curiously.

Zhang Hao was prepared, and immediately took out two kinds of gunpowder from the storage ring and took out a small iron pipe for a live demonstration. As for the shells...... Just use firecrackers.

In the end, Liu Xinyu personally took two firecrackers and held them in the palm of his hand to test, one was made of ordinary black powder, and the other was made of high-grade explosives after spiritualization.

The ordinary firecracker exploded in Liu Xinyu's hand, Liu Xinyu shook his head slightly and opened his palm.

This is the first time Zhang Hao has seen Liu Xinyu's palm, which is not as tender as an ordinary girl, and there are faint, dark yellow cocoons on her palm. It's very faint though.

As for the traces of the gunpowder explosion, only a faint off-white trace remained.

Then Liu Xinyu lit a firecracker made of high-grade explosives, but when he heard a boom, two flames erupted from Liu Xinyu's fist. Bounced open the palm, and a wound appeared in the palm. She didn't even protect her palm with True Yuan.

Zhang Hao was terrified - such a woman made countless men ashamed!

Liu Xinyu took the gauze towel and wiped her palm, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad." This is only two grams of explosives, and it is still a paper shell, if a few kilograms of explosives, plus a shell made of steel, it is enough to bring lethality to the Jindan period.

Zhang Hao, how many artillery pieces and shells can the Zhang family mobilize in 10 days? Counting Xingchang County. ”

Zhang Hao was puzzled, why did he ask this? But after thinking about it, he still gave the answer: "It is estimated that there can be 25 to 30 artillery pieces, and the number of shells can reach about 2,000." ”

Liu Xinyu asked again: "If you don't make cannonballs, but firecrackers like this, just make a big one, made into one hundred or two catties, you don't need to think about what precise production, how much can you make in ten days?"

"This?" Zhang Hao looked stunned, isn't this a bomb, but after thinking about it, he still said: "This kind of has almost no technical content, and it should be able to make more than a thousand in ten days." ”

Liu Xinyu nodded. He took out a little gunpowder and observed it for a while, and said, "This gunpowder should be easy to imitate, right?"

Zhang Hao's face became serious: "If my expectations are right, the country of Jinyang is afraid that it has already imitated gunpowder." They may not be able to make artillery, but if they make bombs like firecrackers, there is no problem. ”

Prime Minister Ouyang Si finally spoke: "If this is the case, then the country of Danyang is in danger." The country of Jinyang will definitely use explosives to deal with the country of Danyang, and with the current situation of the country of Danyang, it will not be able to stop the explosives at all.

I'm afraid that it won't be long before the country of Danyang will die.

And once the country of Danyang is destroyed, the next target of the country of Jinyang must be us!"

Liu Xinyu's complexion also changed, pondered for a while, and said slowly: "This peace talks and the exchange of prisoners...... We're going to have to do some contingencies. ”
