    In the court hall of the Kingdom of Qixia, Guan Zhengqing brought Zhao Donghe, the general of Zhenxi from the Kingdom of Canglan, to pay homage to the new emperor, the crown prince Liu Feng, who had just ascended the throne for ten days.

    Liu Feng glared at Guan Zhengqing angrily: "Where is my second brother! Since you could escape at that time, why didn't you go and save my second brother!"

    Guan Zhengqing sighed. He had already explained it twice in the imperial study room, but he didn't expect to ask again in the main hall!

    "This prince is too immature. How long has it been before he still cares about such trivial things?"  Do you need to explain it a third time?  And judging from the prince's expression, it was obvious that he was being 'interrogated'.

    Yes, in Guan Zhengqing¡¯s view, Liu Feng is still the prince and cannot bear the important responsibility of the ¡®Great Emperor¡¯!

    "That's enough!" Zhao Donghe couldn't stand it anymore, "Your Majesty, we traveled more than 20,000 miles and narrowly avoided the eyes of Jinyang Kingdom and Danyang Kingdom before we came here. We are here to help.

    If the country of Qixia is still capable and willing to fight, we will do our best.

    "If the Kingdom of Qixia is not ready to fight, or no longer has the ability to fight, then we will return immediately and no longer interfere in your country's affairs.  "

    "Zhao Donghyuk's words were harsh and there was no respect at all.  Also, everyone has been enemies for thousands of years. Although they have to cooperate because of the situation, the tone and so on are obviously not very good.

    At this time, the Minister of War also came out: "Your Majesty, now that Jianwu County has fallen, the next target of the Jinyang Kingdom's army must be Xinglin Hall.

    Your Majesty, we must immediately support Xinglin Hall.  "

    Liu Feng thought for a while and suddenly said: "Then why don't we ask the people from Xinglin Hall to retreat to the rear? Then we can shrink the defense line. And there is no danger to defend Xinglin Hall!"

    "Haha" Zhao Donghe smiled, as if he had heard the best joke.  There is such an emperor in this world.  The first thing that comes to mind is not fighting, but retreating!  Why don't you want to surrender? Maybe you can save everyone's lives.

    Then Prime Minister Ouyang Si also came out and persuaded: "Your Majesty, we can't withdraw! I think Xinglintang is of great significance. Moreover, there are a large number of medicinal fields around Xinglintang. Xinglintang can provide 30% of the medicinal materials of Qixia Country. Once Xinglintang falls.  ,The consequences could be disastrous!"

    Then the ministers of the Ministry of Finance and others all gave advice one after another.

    Liu Fengjian, everyone was 'against' him and panicked: "But, our current troops are not enough. Wu Fanghai and Su Jianzhong currently have less than 300,000 troops left in their hands, which can barely stop the westward advance of the Kingdom of Jinyang.

    For Xingchang County in the south, it is beyond reach!

    Although the remaining troops in the country number one million, it will still take three days.  "

    The commander of the imperial guards gritted his teeth and stood up: "Your Majesty, please allow me to lead some of the imperial guards to rush to Xinglin Hall."

    "Hmph!" Liu Feng snorted coldly, "My father was sniped under your protection. Do you still have the ability to protect Xinglintang!"

    The commander of the Imperial Guard suddenly turned purple.

    Zhao Donghe from the Land of Canglan sneered again: "Today is really an eye-opener. Guan Zhengqing, I think I may have come to the wrong place. Farewell!"

    Liu Feng was furious: "Stop, you can come and leave whenever you want!"

    Zhao Donghe shook his head and spoke even more rudely: "Your Majesty, what I see now is a country that has lost its gates and is in danger, but is still worrying about things internally. I think you have everything that a subjugated king should have. You shouldn't.  Yes, you have it too!

    The foreign minister sincerely wishes that the country of Qixia can win!

    Farewell!  "

    After saying that, he walked out without looking back.  Liu Feng was trembling with anger, but in the end he still did not order the interception.

    At this time, Guan Zhengqing also spoke again: "Your Majesty, please allow me to go to Xinglin Hall with Ding Kui, the commander of the Imperial Guard, to support us and atone for our sins."

    Liu Feng took a few quick breaths and then snorted coldly: "That's right! Also, Guan Zhengqing gives you a task. To persuade Zhao Donghe, you can go to Xinglin Hall together."

    Next to him, the prime minister quietly sent a message to Liu Feng: "Your Majesty, promise some rewards for everyone."

    Liu Feng was so angry that he even promised a woolen reward, so he turned around and left, "Retreat from the court!"

    It was quiet in the main hall, everyone looked at each other, a little dumbfounded.

    Guan Zhengqing sighed and said to Ding Kui, the commander of the imperial guards: "Let's go, we must save Xinglin Hall, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

    Also, the Minister of the Ministry of War Yu Tiegan?You must seize the time to urge reinforcements from various places.  It can't be delayed.  "

    Yu Tiegan looked up at the top of the hall and sighed deeply: "I will do my best!"

    Guan Zhengqing nodded: "I'm leaving first to persuade Zhao Donghe and other people from the Canglan Country."

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    While the court was in chaos, Zhang Hao had already led many masters from Dayang Group and five thousand soldiers who had just been trained to the foot of Xinglin Hall.

    Xinglintang is also one of the major shareholders of Dayang Group, so this time under Zhang Hao¡¯s suggestion, everyone came together to support.

    How powerful is Dayang Group?  This group, which has gathered almost half of the power of Qixia Kingdom, has more than 300 Yuanying years, plus temporary employees, etc., the total is more than 400 Yuanying years.

    There are also 5,000 trained soldiers. These 5,000 soldiers are at least in the foundation building stage, many of them are in the golden elixir stage, and they are all armed with steel weapons and armor.

    There are also eight artillery pieces and more than 900 cannonballs in the team.

    Zhou Shuhai personally went down the mountain to greet everyone.

    "Dad." Zhou Xueyao rushed out from Zhang Hao like a deer and rushed to Zhou Shuhai.

    Zhou Shuhai smiled and gently touched Zhou Xueyao's head, "Tell me, did you suffer any loss in the Zhang family?"

    "No. Dad, the explosives have been successfully researched."

    "Dad knows, your brother and senior brother (Xie Hongsheng) have told dad a long time ago. That's the artillery." Zhou Shuhai looked at the eight artillery pieces in the distance, his eyes full of curiosity.

    Although Zhou Jue also sent back the jade slips, the records on the jade slips were too crude and vague after all, and Zhou Shuhai still did not understand the power of artillery.  There is only one impression: no less powerful than the initial self-destruction of Yuanying.

    It was obviously not a good opportunity to reminisce about the past. Zhou Shuhai received Zhang Hao and others, and briefly introduced the situation of Xinglin Hall to Zhou Jue, Zhang Hao, Dugu Junjie and others.

    At the same time, Zhou Shuhai also explained the general situation of Xingchang County.

    The governor of Xingchang County, Gu Xingdong, has led the army of Xingchang County and some civilian masters to the north, and has had several tentative confrontations with the army of Jinyang Kingdom. The situation is not optimistic.

    After listening to the analysis, Zhou Jue immediately called on the Nascent Soul masters to rush to the front line for support, and the army then set off.

    After Zhou Shuhai explained the matter, he finally had the opportunity to get close to the eight artillery pieces and observe them.  The shape of the artillery is unique. The entire body of the artillery is forged from steel, and the base and other parts are made from ordinary black iron.

    But Zhou Shuhai soon discovered a problem: the barrels of three artillery pieces were obviously longer than the other five artillery pieces.  According to the new measurement standards of the Zhang family, it is almost 70 to 80 centimeters long, almost 2.5 meters in length.

    "The longer the barrel, the farther the artillery shell's attack distance." Feng Zhiling emerged from the side, pretending to be an expert, "According to our actual testing, the length of the barrel increased by 70 centimeters, and the maximum range of the artillery shell increased from a little more than ten kilometers.  increased to fifteen kilometers.

    However, increasing the length of the barrel also increases the difficulty of manufacturing.

    The five artillery pieces in front are the first generation of mature artillery pieces.

    These extended barrels are of the second generation.  "

    Zhou Shuhai nodded, gently touched the cannon, and was filled with emotions for a while.  He never thought that he was concentrating on refining alchemy, but accidentally opened the door to explosives.  Although the explosives were perfected in the Zhang family, the first step was started by themselves.

    Today will be the first time that Dynamite shows its fangs to the world, right?

    I was filled with emotions, but I also wanted to see the power of the artillery with my own eyes, so I followed the army forward.

    Dugu Junjie has already begun to shout, and the five thousand army continues to advance. The artillery is quickly followed by two horses, and is surrounded by special Nascent Soul protection.

    There are carriages at the back specifically for transporting artillery shells.  Each shell is surrounded by fluffy dry straw, and the shell and fuse are separate.

    After Zhang Hao, Dugu Junjie, Zhou Jue and others arrived at the front line, they were immediately warmly welcomed by County Governor Gu Xingdong.  But when he stood on the top of the city, Zhang Hao looked at the vast and endless army of Jinyang Kingdom in front of him, and felt that his heartbeat had stopped.

    At this time, Zhang Hao really felt: What does it mean that the situation is not very optimistic!

    Although Zhang Hao had seen the war in Jingshan City in the Kingdom of Jinyang before, he saw it as an outsider at that time.  But at this time, Zhang Hao is the man in the game!

    This change in identity made Zhang Hao feel suffocated like never before.

    The black army stretched to the end of the line of sight, like a vast ocean.

    Dugu Junjie is very calm, almost cold.  The first time he came to the city wall, he ordered: "Prepare the artillery and look for the commander's camp!"
