Wen Shun is at leisure, and now he is playing chess with Sima Zhao in the Zuixian Tower.After one round, it was a dead end.Wen Shun shook his head and smiled, talking to Sima Zhao.

"Brother Zhao is getting more and more proficient in this formation, it seems that within a few days, he will be able to beat brother."

"Hehe. Big brother praised it. Little brother is just a fluke, a fluke!"

Sima Zhao smiled slightly, showing no signs of embarrassment, and actually called Wen Shun his eldest brother.It turns out that the two have similar meanings, and the two began to call each other brothers earlier.Wen Shun waved his hands, stood up slowly, and couldn't help showing a bit of sadness.When Sima Zhao saw it, his expression froze, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Eldest brother seems to have something on his mind, so why not tell me, so that younger brother can also share his worries."

Wen Shun let out a long sigh, tightened his eyes, looked at the people on the street outside the window, and said slowly, with more and more sorrow.

"The great Wei recruited recruits on a large scale, and now there are millions of them. Wei Emperor Cao Mengde is an invincible hero who aims to unify the country. The battle between the Western Tang Dynasty and the Great Wei Dynasty is imminent. In order to deal with the million-strong army of the Great Wei Dynasty, the Western Tang Dynasty, We also had to recruit recruits on a large scale. Young and strong men have joined the army in various counties. If our army is defeated, the West Tang will be full of old and young women and children, how can we resist the tiger and wolf divisions of the Great Wei?"

When Sima Zhao heard the words, his expression was shocked, and he got up immediately, came to Wen Shun's side, and said kind words to comfort him.

"Brother, don't worry too much. Xiong Wang of the Western Tang Dynasty is a generalist, and his advisers such as Prime Minister Pang, Xu Sima, and Tian Taichang are all geniuses, and Guan Shengye and Zhao Longhou are all victorious generals. Toothless?"

Wen Shun heard the words, shook his head and sighed, his eyes were piercing, and he said.

"Brother Zhao's words are wrong. Although my Western Tang Dynasty is as talented as the stars in the world, and my generals are like clouds. But the great Wei's civil and military are also heroes of all kinds, so we should not underestimate them."

Sima Zhao's heart sank, seeing that the time had come, he suddenly changed the subject and said something to Wen Shun.

"That's the case. But my Western Tang Dynasty is well-armed, and there are such artifacts as thunder cannons. In the past, Chengdu, the most fortified city in the world, could not withstand its prestige. Then Zhuge Kongming was even defeated by the most wise man in the world. Under the command of the King of Xitang! Forgive me, I don’t know what kind of magical weapon this thunder cannon is, and it has such power. If I can see it, I will have no regrets in this life.”

Wen Shun raised his brows, smiled when he heard the words, and laughed with Sima Zhao.

"What's so difficult about it? If brother Zhao wants to see you, you can come into the palace with me tomorrow, and I'll take it for you to have a look!"

Wen Shun seemed unsuspecting towards Sima Zhao. After all, Wen Shun had been with Sima Zhao for a long time, and he didn't notice any clues.Moreover, ever since Pang Tong announced the policy of closing the gates and severing all contact with the Great Wei, it was difficult for the secret agents of the Great Wei to enter the customs, and all the key gates were blocked by flying kites, let alone coming to Chang'an.Moreover, Wen Shun regards Sima Zhao as his own brother. Although Sima Zhao has no intention of becoming an official now, Wen Shun believes that he will treat each other sincerely in the near future, and Sima Zhao will definitely be willing to vote.With Sima Zhao's ability, the future is boundless, and this thunder cannon will be seen sooner or later.When Sima Zhao heard the words, his heart skipped a beat, he was overjoyed, and bowed his hands in worship.

"My little brother has been fascinated by this artifact for a long time. If I can take a look at it, it will be the luck of my life."

Seeing that Sima Zhao was so happy, Wen Shun laughed.The two were in high spirits, so a banquet was inevitable.That night, Wen Shun left happily.Sima Zhao looked at his leaving back outside the building and murmured.

"Big Brother, Big Brother. Don't blame me. Sima and Wen's family have been fighting openly and secretly for decades. I can't repay the love you treat me. In the future, if you want to blame me and hate me, I will also hate you." Just accept it."

After Sima Zhao finished speaking, he showed some inexplicable emotion, so he turned and went back.

The next day, Wenshun sent someone to summon him early.Sima Zhao changed his clothes according to his orders, and went outside the city to wait.After a while, Wen Shun came with dozens of dead soldiers wearing black suits and armour, with indifferent expressions.

Last night, Wen Shun and his father reported the matter.In addition, Wen Han had heard about Ma Zhao for a long time, and heard his son say that he was a genius in the world, so he wanted to invite him to the palace to see him.However, Wen Shun said that Ma Zhao had no intention of becoming an official for the time being, so he summoned him hastily, fearing that he was not congenial.Wen Han saw that Wen Shun had already made up his mind, so he didn't ask any more questions.Last night, Wen Han heard that Ma Zhao had long been fascinated by the Honglei Cannon, and Wen Shun wanted to get a Honglei Cannon to satisfy his wish.Wen Han secretly kept his heart, but saw that Wen Shun and Ma Zhao had a very deep friendship, and he didn't want Wen Shun to break his promise, so he made a promise.Wenshun was overjoyed, and now he took a thunder cannon from the Shenbing camp, and came with Feiyuan's dead soldiers.

Now that the two brothers finished their rites, they looked at a wilderness outside the city and rode their horses.It was noon, but the sky was gloomy, and it seemed that there would be a thunderstorm soon.Wen Shun and his party came to move the wilderness, seeing the sky, they couldn't help frowning, and cast a wink at a dead man flying kite beside him.Sima Zhao saw it and his expression froze.Feiyuan, who was making eye contact with Wenshun just now, suddenly made a strange noise.After a while, in the dense forest on the left, a group of flying kite soldiers rushed out, pushing a wooden cart with a strange iron object on it.When Sima Zhao saw it, his eyes sparkled and he looked closely.Soon, the group of flying kite soldiers rushed over, Sima Zhao hurriedly got off his horse, and observed beside the iron object.Seeing Sima Zhao's eagerness, Wen Shun smiled slightly, got off his horse, came to Sima Zhao's side, pointed to the iron object and said.

"This is the Thunder Cannon that Brother Zhao has been looking forward to for a long time."

Sima Zhao responded, as if forgetting himself, he paced around, moving around the thunder cannon, as if fascinated.

"It's just this iron bump that has the power to destroy mountains and rocks?"

Sima Zhao was slightly startled, and couldn't help feeling suspicious, but he also thought that Wen Shun regarded him as a brother of flesh and blood, regarded him as a human being, and would never deceive him.Sima Zhao's heart tightened, and he suddenly asked Wen Shun.

"Brother, can my younger brother touch this thing?"

Wen Shun nodded slightly, and Sima Zhao's face became happy, so he stretched out his hand to touch it, only to feel a chill, and then slowly touched the tube of the thunder cannon, full of surprise and doubt.I saw Sima Zhao walking around the thunder cannon like a revolving lantern.At this time, suddenly a thunderbolt roared in the sky, and the thunder flashed.Sima Zhao thought that the thunder cannon was going to be powerful, so he hurriedly backed away with a bang, his expression changed drastically, and he was startled.When Wenshun saw it, he laughed and came to speak.

"Brother Zhao, don't panic. It's just thunder from the sky."

Sima Zhao turned pale for a while, and after listening to it, he felt relieved, and walked into Honglei Pao again and began to look at it.At this time, a dead man Feiyuan rushed to Wenshun's side and whispered so and so in his ear.When Wen Shun heard the words, his heart tightened, he nodded slightly, and then spoke to Sima Zhao.

"This thunderstorm is coming, why not take a look at the power of the thunder cannon first, and then take a closer look at it if Brother Zhao is free someday."

When Sima Zhao heard the words, he waved his hands, with a look of fascination, and subconsciously said.

"Brother don't need to worry, younger brother is not afraid of this thunderstorm."

Wen Shun smiled wryly when he heard the words, shook his head and said.

"Hehe, brother Zhao, you have recovered from your serious illness, but if you catch a cold, it's not good."

Sima Zhao frowned, and wanted to refuse again, but he felt the dead soldiers around Feiyuan cast their eyes one after another.Sima Zhao's heart tightened, so he looked away reluctantly, stretched out his hand, turned around and smiled at Wen Shun.

"Brother is so concerned, how dare younger brother not know what is good or bad."

Wen Shun also ignored Sima Zhao's joke, listening to the sound of thunder rolling in the sky, he was a little anxious, and cast his eyes on Yifei Yuan, the dead man.Soon five or six Feiyuan soldiers rushed towards Honglei Pao, fiddling around.Sima Zhao watched closely, for fear of missing a detail.Seeing that Sima Zhao was engrossed, Wen Shun was afraid that Sima Zhao would be accidentally injured by firing a cannon later.After reloading, Wen Shun taught Sima Zhao to back off three feet, and then covered his ears.Although Sima Zhao was at a loss, he obeyed and retreated three zhang.Soon, with a sudden sound like thunder, a burst of flames burst into the mouth of the thunder cannon.Sima Zhao was startled, and before he could cover his ears, his ears roared, and he saw a black round object shoot out from the flames, and it landed on a mound in an instant. It shattered violently, flew into the sky, and soon billowed thick smoke dispersed in all directions.Sima Zhao was terrified, as if he was frightened by the power of the thunder cannon.I don't know if it was because Sima Zhao's ears were still ringing, but Wen Shun yelled a few times, but Sima Zhao didn't hear it.But now, he withdrew his eyes and looked closely at the Hulei Pao, seeing that the mouth of the nozzle was red and white smoke was coming out.Sima Zhao seemed to have seen something, pulled Wen Shun's sleeve hastily, and said hastily.

"I didn't see it just now, can you send it again, brother?"

"Okay. Brother Zhao, wait a moment."

Wen Shun heard that he seemed to be responsive to brother Sima Zhao's every request.And when Sima Zhao heard Wen Shun's words, his heart was turbulent and he was secretly happy.After a while, the thunder cannon was fired again, and there was a loud thunder, and then I saw a place where earth and rocks were flying, and the flames shot into the sky.Sima Zhao hurriedly looked towards Hong Lei Pao, but before he arrived, he felt a burst of heat.The faces of the two Feiyuan soldiers turned cold, but they stopped Sima Zhao.

At this moment, Tian Qiong seemed to be irritated by the two thunder cannons, and the thunderbolts struck down one after another, and the downpour of rain came down.The heavy rain hit the thunder cannon, and there was a harsh sound immediately.The faces of the flying kite soldiers changed drastically, and they hurriedly put away the round objects on the ground, and then covered the Thunder Cannon with a large black cloth.Under the light of thunder, Sima Zhao's eyes seemed to be shining, he watched the actions of those flying kite dead soldiers closely, and his heart was constantly rippling.Wen Shun hurried over and said with some concern.

"Brother Zhao, it's raining hard, you're not in good health, and leave quickly with me. There will be a group of flying kites to take care of this Thunder Cannon."

Wen Shun yelled in Sima Zhao's ear, and Sima Zhao came back to his senses suddenly, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had gained something, he nodded to Wen Shun in response.They got on their horses one after another, and hoped that Chang'an would fly away.But Wenshun never expected that in the near future, because of today's incident, he almost destroyed hundreds of thousands of Western Tang troops!

Let's say that Wen Shun and Sima Zhao returned to Chang'an until they took shelter from the rain in the Zuixian Tower.Sima Zhao took a set of clean clothes and Wen Shun.The two changed their clothes and rested in a wing room.The two brothers talked for a while, and Wen Shun suddenly said.

"Brother's wedding is approaching, and there are still many chores that need to be taken care of. You can't leave the palace for a few days, so you can't meet Brother Zhao. Brother Zhao, you have a good rest today because of the wind and cold. It will be the wedding in five days. Can you Don't miss it!"

"Hehe, that's natural. Even if my younger brother is terminally ill, he will definitely come to drink at the wedding banquet of elder brother!! Elder brother don't need to worry."

Sima Zhao smiled brightly, and then replied.Wen Shun smiled wryly, shook his head, and said.
