Shu Blossoms

Chapter 80 A Great Victory
The beating flames illuminate the towers. The flames come from the burning stoves. The large iron pots on the stoves have golden soup tumbling. Next to them, soldiers pour the golden juice into a special wooden barrel. The barrel was covered with a thin layer of iron.

The barrels were then sealed and hung on the trebuchets.

At this time, a teenager reported: "Reporting to the general, our army has withdrawn to the city. The assault team has also returned."

Han Shidi nodded when he heard the words, looked at the Wei army in the city, and said lightly, "Let's start!"

The young general immediately took the order, waved at the soldiers and shouted: "Let go!"

After countless casualties, the Dawei army finally made it to the city with difficulty, but the Dazhou army suddenly and quickly retreated into the city. They were stunned for a moment, and then they rushed into the city.

Not to mention that more than a thousand people rushed in, the Dawei army was overjoyed, thinking that the Dazhou army was finally beaten by them and fled in a hurry.

But when they were still immersed in joy, they didn't notice that there were hundreds of strange wooden barrels flying down from the tower above their heads.

The soldiers waiting beside the catapult immediately cut off the rope, and the iron bucket filled with gold juice flew out immediately and quickly fell down.

The archer selected from the army slammed a rocket into the iron barrel.

Hundreds of wooden barrels met the burning rocket before they fell to the ground, making a loud 'bang', and exploded on the top of the Wei soldiers' heads, and countless drops of golden juice splashed on the heads of the Wei soldiers. On the face, on the body, and even in the eyes, severe pain followed, and the flesh made a squeaking sound, and even gave off a burnt smell.

In an instant, a large number of Dawei soldiers rolled on the ground crying, and those who escaped were frightened and retreated again and again!

Liao Wennan looked at the heavy casualties of the Dawei soldiers under the city from a distance. Hearing the tragic voice, he couldn't help thinking that the explosion outside Qingzhou city a few months ago also caused quite a stir. He couldn't help sighing in his heart. They are all cruel!
It's a pity that she didn't understand how Zheng Wei operated at that time, otherwise, it would have miraculous effects if it was used to siege the city today!
As soon as Han Shidi turned around, he saw Liao Wennan, who looked beautiful in a long gown. Although she was dressed in men's clothes, she looked rough after running around for many days, but these did not hide her gorgeous face.

Liao Wennan has not deliberately concealed his identity these days, and Han Shidi naturally could easily see that he was a girl, and his eyes suddenly became solemn.

Seeing the dissatisfaction and surprise in his eyes, Liao Wennan immediately realized that she should not be here during the war.

It's just that a few days ago, the people took turns to guard the city wall, and she often followed Zhao Yi and Song Zaiyan's side, so how could she care about these rules at the juncture of life and death.

Liao Wennan didn't want to cause trouble for Zhao Yi, so he quietly went down the tower.

After all, if this matter spreads out in the future, when the imperial court fights, there will be people with a heart to attack Zhao Yi on the pretext that he actually carried female relatives with him during the war, indulged in female sex, and ignored the lives of the people.

This crime is not small!
Han Shidi didn't think as much as Liao Wennan thought, but he was surprised for a moment, thinking that this girl was very strange, and turned his mind to the battlefield.

Sure enough, using gold juice as a defense tool is a bit vicious, but it has miraculous effects.

The soldiers of the Great Wei were too frightened to move forward. Except for those who were scalded to death by the golden juice, everyone else retreated.

Tuoba Yu was furious and ordered to kill several soldiers who escaped, so that he could control the panic of the army.

The army slowly attacked the city gate again, and hundreds of barrels of gold juice flew in. The Great Wei sergeants, who had already become startled birds, fled in all directions. Even the Great Wei generals could not control the riots of the soldiers.

But no matter how fast they escaped, it was not as fast as the splash of golden juice, and countless sergeants were still injured by the explosion.

What was even more terrifying was that several barrels of golden juice fell into the moat this time. The hot golden juice met the icy river water, and instantly exploded with greater power. Many people in the Wei army standing near the moat were blown up.

Seeing this situation, Han Shidi on the city tower immediately ordered to pour gold juice directly into the moat. The sound of 'boom', 'boom', 'boom' rang for half an hour, and there was no more Wei army around the moat.

After another half an hour, deafening cheers erupted from the Qingzhou city tower.

"The Great Wei has withdrawn!"

"we won!"

"Victory!"

The celebration on the city tower spread to the whole city, and the army that was waiting in the city immediately became boiling when they heard the cheers!

Everyone was immersed in the joy of victory. The people who had survived the disaster in Qingzhou City were even more excited. Many soldiers cried silently when they thought of their dead relatives and brothers.

At this time, Tuobayu, who silently retreated to Yanzhou, was also very helpless. Although he was still unwilling to withdraw his troops, the loss of this battle was no longer something he could bear.

The Southern Expedition Army and the Western Army had a total of 7 people, and now there are less than 2 people left. More importantly, his younger brother, the most beloved prince of the father, died in a surprise attack.

The most important thing is that the warriors have lost their fighting spirit. They are full of fear in the face of the strange golden water cast by Qingzhou City, and the whole army has no strength to fight anymore.

Tuoba Yu looked back at Xiang Qingzhou City Wall, the young and tall figure could still be seen vaguely, and he said silently in his heart, "The leader of the younger generation in Da Zhou really deserves his reputation, he is stronger than the Xiao Yucheng he met last time. few!"

Compared with them, I am still young, and the next time I meet on the battlefield, it will not be the same result!
Tuobayu silently made an oath in his heart and left Qingzhou with the disabled army of the Great Wei.

When the scouts came back to report that the Wei army had left the territory of Qingzhou, Zhao Yicai was completely relieved.

The red-eyed Qingzhou prefect saluted Han Shidi, who was much younger than his official age, "General Han is a great talent, although I don't express my gratitude for my great kindness, I still want to thank General Han on behalf of all the civilian soldiers in Qingzhou City!"

Han Shidi quickly helped Zhao Yi and said solemnly: "Protecting the family and the country is the foundation of the generals, so why do you need to express your gratitude?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then went down the tower side by side.

Zhao Yi asked Han Shidi how long he and the reinforcements could stay here.

Han Shidi looked up at the reddish sky in the east, and said with a smile, "The army rests for half a day, and in the afternoon, we must dare to go to Zhongzhou."

After thinking about it, he said: "Zhao Fu has made a lot of military exploits today, enough to ask the court for credit. If the adults are willing, how about letting him go to Zhongzhou with me?"

Zhao Yi was stunned when he heard the words, and after a long silence he sighed: "The child is too old to be forced to stay! Now I can see that this child is a piece of material, and today I will entrust the child Zhao Fu to General Han on behalf of the eldest brother! "

After speaking, I felt a little sad, and said with a smile: "This child is not obedient. If he makes mistakes in the future, the general will just teach him a good lesson, and he will not be softer!"

Han Shidi clasped his fists, "I'll do my best to live up to my trust!"

After negotiating with Zhao Fu, Han Shidi turned to tentatively and asked about personal matters, "Five days ago, on the day the army set off on the expedition, I received a letter from my father's carrier pigeon in Qingzhou City, so that I could learn about the situation of Qingzhou City being trapped in time. I don't know how to take care of my father. Where are the homing pigeons?"
