Yu He thought of a way, and he didn't have a headache. Meditate overnight. The next morning, Yu He got up early. I went out and punched and returned to the inn. I met Ah Jiu.

"Brother Yu. Morning"

"Well, Sister Ajiu, early."

A few people finished eating. Yuan Chengzhi really brought Li Yan and others over. and Aunt An.

Yu He and the others introduced each other.

Yuan Chengzhi said: "Originally, I wanted to wait for Brother Sha, but now there are enough people." Let's take the cannons. Let's think about how to do it. ”

Yu He said: "Although these foreigners' guns are powerful, I am not afraid of one or two." But dozens of people shot at the same time, and I couldn't resist it. There is no way to break through their blockade. However, their muskets required gunpowder to be effective. We can pour their gunpowder on the water. “

Yuan Chengzhi said: "This is a good idea. ”

"But even if they poured gunpowder with water, they still had gunpowder on them. I can still resist for a while. What are we going to do. ”

And they took long counsel. Yu He told the original plan in the book. Everyone applauded.

On this day, the foreigners came to a small village with cannons. Gunpowder is carried into the ancestral hall of the village. I found a place to rest and rested. Suddenly, a fire broke out in a house in the village. Smoke billowed up. Villagers rushed out to put out the fire. Soon, the village chief took the villagers to the ancestral hall to splash water everywhere. Qian Tongsi went to inquire. The village chief said that it was to prevent the fire from spreading to the ancestral hall and alarming the ancestors. Qian Tongsi told Raymond. Raymond asked the foreigners to carry the gunpowder outside the ancestral hall.

The villagers poured water on the powder kegs again. The foreigners and officers came one after another, but they drove away this, that came again, drove away that, and this came again. Soon, the gunpowder was all soaked.

Raymond scolded and could only stay in the village for one night. The next day, the gunpowder was dried for a day. By noon, the gunpowder had dried, and Raymond wanted to command his soldiers to put away the gunpowder. But more than a dozen people sprang out of the woods next to the ancestral hall, holding torches in their hands, and threw gunpowder. The gunpowder crackled and soon burned out. Raymond wanted to cry without tears. He said to Peter, "The people of this village are very strange, so let's hurry." ”

Peter nodded. He left with all the officers and soldiers pulling the cannons.

Coming to a canyon, Peter Raymond led the people all the way. The canyon is narrow and treacherous. The ravines on both sides are more than a meter deep. The foreigners carefully pulled the cannon.

Soon walked to the other side of the canyon. Suddenly a bow and arrow shot from the mountain. Several foreigners were wounded by arrows and fell to the ground. Some died on the spot.

The remaining foreign officers and soldiers shouted and hid under the roadside ravines. Raise your gun and return fire. It's a pity that Yu He and others have already dug mud on the mountain to build a low wall. When the foreigner shoots, they bow their heads, but the bow and arrow throw still reach the foreigner. The foreigners hid in the ravine, and a few of them were killed by bows and arrows as soon as they showed up to check the situation. Now no one dares to show their heads.

Peter said to Raymond, "What should we do when we run out of gunpowder?" Raymond said: "Only rush, otherwise the bullets will run out and only the prisoner's share." Peter said, "We can't rush, the enemy has made a trap, how can we rush." Raymond said to Peter with disdain, "You are not a man. After speaking, he jumped up and said to the foreigners: "It's a man's, follow me." Not a word was finished. An arrow was fired. Nail it to the ground. Now foreigners dare not show their heads.

Yu He and the others didn't care about them. A dozen people were left to stand guard, and a dozen people were called to prepare meals. Wait until noon. The foreigners were dizzy with hunger, but there was a burst of wine and meat on the mountain.

A group of foreigners were hungry and thirsty, and they shouted for surrender. Half a day. Qian Tongsi's voice remembered: "Heroes, our heads have dropped, please let us go out." We surrendered".

Yu He said: "It's okay to surrender, throw out all the muskets." ”

Qian Tongsi translated it to Peter. Peter said, "No, the guns can't be given to them." ”

Qian Tongsi answered truthfully.

"In that case, then continue to stay next to each other below. When you are connected, when you are coming to me. Yu He said as he nibbled on a chicken. After gnawing on the chicken legs, he deliberately used a hidden weapon to launch the chicken bones into the ravine. caused a few Western soldiers to foam at the mouth.

Peter persisted for a long time, but still couldn't think of a way. At this time, a Western soldier couldn't help it. He jumped out of the ditch. Shouting in a foreign language. Hands held high. Running towards the mountain.

Yu He knew that he had come to surrender. Stop your men who want to shoot arrows. Let this Westerner run over. Then pick up a jug of wine, a chicken. The Westerner's gun was confiscated. Then he made a gesture and asked the Westerner to eat and drink on the ravine.

The Westerner stood on top of the ravine eating and drinking. Soon a crowd of people came up and surrendered. One person took the lead, and everyone rushed up.

Seeing that the general situation was gone, Peter reluctantly ordered to surrender. He walked up with Knorlin on his back.

Yu He took the guns of these men and asked a small leader to take them to dinner. He took Yuan Chengzhi to see those Western cannons.

Several people came to the front of the cannon. Wen Qingqing and the others were very curious. Left touch, right touch.

The red-coated cannon was very clumsy, weighing thousands of pounds. It takes a horse, and five or six people can push it slowly. Also be careful that it doesn't flip over. However, although it is an ancient cannon, its power is really good, and if a cannon goes down, there should be no one alive within a radius of three meters. And artillery in this era is more of a deterrent. With artillery, the siege will be a little easier.

Yuan Chengzhi asked Li Yan and others to bring red-clothed cannons to help King Chuang. Li Yan was overjoyed. After thanking him, he hurriedly took the cannon and the treasure obtained from Xu Da's former residence to help King Chuang.

Yu He and Yuan Chengzhi dealt with those Western soldiers together.

Half an hour later, Peter and his men had a full meal and stood in an open field. Yu He said: "How to deal with these Westerners." According to Yu He's idea, he kept these Western soldiers to help him. Yuan Chengzhi said: "Put them back, so that they will not set foot in the Central Plains in the future."

Yu He said: "No, I have some use for keeping them. ”

At this time, Sha Tianguang also arrived. I regret that I missed the show.

Yu He found Sha Tianguang and handed him 10,000 taels of silver and said, "You take this group of Westerners and find a place to live." Let the translator teach them Mandarin. I'm useful".

Sha Tianguang agreed. Yu He asked him to find a translator. Then all the muskets were returned to the Westerners. But all the bullets were confiscated and left for Sha Tianguang. Let it be put away.

Sha Tianguang quickly left with the Western soldiers. Yu He smiled at Yuan Chengzhi and said: "Although these Westerners are not good at martial arts, some of their things are worth learning. It doesn't cost me much money to keep them. It should be of great use in the future. ”

Yuan Chengzhi nodded: "It's time for us to continue on the road." ”
