Ultra-dimensional kill

Chapter 37 The Truth
"Your Majesty! This is a new battle report from the northern border. The soldiers and horses dispatched from the western frontier have rushed to Shourong City, blocking the attack of the barbarians in the Huorong country! However, due to the surge in the number of soldiers and horses, the northern border is in short supply. Please hurry up Deploy food and grass for support!"

"Report to Your Majesty! There is a shortage of troops in the Western Territory, and the Wuzi state-owned army of the Western Regions suddenly appeared in the important town of Western Frontier in our Great Zhou! The Western Frontier Army requests reinforcements!"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to reports from spies, the foreign tribes in southern Xinjiang began to dispatch troops and generals seven days ago, and there seems to be a change!"

Facing Huorong Kingdom's defeat in the Northern Territory, the whole body was affected by the slightest move. After the soldiers and horses from the Western Territory were transferred for reinforcements, the Wuzi Kingdom of the Western Regions, which had originally surrendered to the Great Zhou and paid tribute every year, was ready to move.

And the foreigners in southern Xinjiang also dispatched troops and generals at this time, waiting for the opportunity to move.

In addition, part of the northern border was destroyed due to the soldiers and horses reinforced by the western frontier, and the city was attacked by the barbarian wolf cavalry from the Huorong country, and the reserves of war preparations and grass were also in a hurry.

The military began to buy from the people, which caused the price of grain in the north of the Great Zhou to skyrocket. The common people had barely enough food to eat, but with the skyrocketing price of grain, they couldn't afford it.

All of a sudden, the people in the north were full of grievances. Originally, they were only sympathetic and pitiful to the current emperor's decision to severely punish Su Ling, and at most added a little bit of resentment, but when it came to their own interests, the dissatisfaction of the northern people against the current emperor suddenly soared wildly!

After the local government learned about it, it immediately suppressed it, but it's okay not to suppress it, this suppression directly led to a big explosive backlash!
There are people who can't eat enough to yell at the faint king directly in the street, just to be caught in the yamen prison and beg for a mouthful of prison food with clear soup and little water.

Soon, the government offices of various localities were full of people, and there was no room for excess.

But this move not only failed to curb the grievances of the people, but intensified, and incidents of burning, killing and looting gradually appeared in some remote places.

All of a sudden, the northern border began to become chaotic.

It took only about a month for the northern border to become like this.

In addition, this chaotic trend, without any pause, is spreading towards the south...

After Jingzhong learned of these situations, the old emperor asked the ministers in charge of various ministries what good strategies they had.

In the end, it was Prime Minister Li Qingyuan who spoke bluntly and said: "Your Majesty, the only way to cure this chaos now is to invite the Thirteenth Highness to take command of the Northern Territory again to crusade against Huorong Country, and let the soldiers transferred from the Western Frontier Go back and frighten Wuzi Xiaoxiao. As for the chaos in Dazhou, it is just a superficial sore, and it can be treated after a while."

Hearing Li Qingyuan's words, the old emperor sitting on the dragon chair in the main hall showed obvious embarrassment on his face, which was always expressionless for the purpose of making everyone unable to figure it out.

He just ordered the thirteen sons to be recalled from the northern border and imprisoned in the clan mansion for a month, and now he is going to be released?

Such contradictory behavior is simply slapping him in the face!

At that time, what majesty will he still have?
He only heard him say: "Could it be that there is no one available to me in Da Zhou except him?"

After finishing speaking, his eyes scanned all the civil and military officials in the Grand Highness, but none of them dared to look at him, and they all lowered their heads, let alone answer.

The humanities and military officers in the palace are not stupid. Originally, the Vulcan Army relied on the superiority in the number of soldiers and horses to guard the northern border. In this way, the barbarians of the Tinder Kingdom dared to invade from time to time, let alone the loss of soldiers and generals now. Vulcan Army.

Once someone took over the hard work and went to the northern border, the soldiers and horses dispatched from the west frontier would go back to guard the west frontier. With the Vulcan army's lost soldiers and generals, it would be impossible to defeat the barbarians of the Tinder country.

Even if the thirteenth prince with the title of "Military God" is invited again, the military officers present suspect that the other party may not be able to win this battle under such conditions.

Those who have been in the officialdom for a long time are basically good people, maybe they don't have much ability, but in terms of seeing the situation clearly, no one can compare with them.

Looking at the civil and military affairs of the whole court, no one dared to speak out, and the old emperor could only take a deep breath and said again: "Okay, I understand."

Now that Great Zhou has internal and external troubles, no matter how much he hates those thirteen sons, as the king of a country, he can still distinguish the serious from the serious.

Moreover, he is also aware of the current battle in the northern border. No matter how good the thirteen sons are at using troops, with the current strength of the Vulcan army, it is impossible for the thirteen sons to win in a short time.

It's good to put it in the northern border and Huorong country for a few years.

Being able to stabilize the situation and keep him quiet can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

As for the issue of the master of high meritorious service, when the situation is stable and the war is about to be won, he will transfer the opponent back and let one of his favorite sons pick peaches.

The only bad thing is that the other party has only been imprisoned in the clan's mansion for a month, and now he is released again, which is a little embarrassing to him.

But now there is no other way.

With this in mind, the old emperor immediately asked the eunuchs on the side to start drafting the decree.

……

[Zhou Zhe draws up an order to let you out of the clan's mansion, and once again represent the royal family to take command of the expedition to crusade against the barbarians of the Huorong Kingdom in the north...]

The text message that suddenly appeared in his mind made Su Ling, who was in the clan mansion, couldn't help but smile slightly.

The ability of [self-knowledge] feeds back the current situation of Da Zhou into his mind in detail, and turns it into specific text information. Therefore, he knows what the old emperor is thinking.

According to the common sense of this world, with the strength of the Vulcan Army, even if he can know the movements of the barbarians in Huorong Country in detail, without enough troops, it is indeed impossible to win the war in a short time victory.

But unfortunately, this is according to the common sense of this world.

But he is not from this world!
The box of bombs in the basement of the Fifteenth Prince, as well as the large amount of sulfur, saltpeter, charcoal that the committed player has bought with a lot of money since entering the game, and the "primary bombs" he learned when he observed the opponent with the ability of [Self Omniscience] "Manufacturing" skills will be his big weapon to quickly resolve this war!
Under this kind of cold weapon background dynasty, the bomb is like an artifact!

Coupled with his [Self-Omniscience] ability, he was able to gain insight into every move of the barbarians in Huorong Country. He hadn't set out for this war yet, and the result was already doomed.

"It's almost time to wrap up."

Now that the layout is up, he already has the emotions he wants, and the next step is the final ignition, which will detonate the whole incident...

a day later.

Su Ling left the clan mansion with "no complaints" and hurried to the northern border.

In order to appease the hearts of the army and the people, the old emperor asked the officials to publicize the matter among the people, and the northern army also sent scouts eight hundred miles to hurry to inform the matter and stabilize the morale of the army.

And this move has indeed greatly boosted the morale of the Northern Vulcan Army!
The civilians who don't understand military affairs have been appeased one after another. Under the hype of "people with a heart" in the past, Su Ling's name of "Military God" has been deified, and the common people have a concept that as long as the "Military God" comes out , the battle must be won!

And the reality is exactly as the people expected.

When the "Military God" thirteen princes came to the northern border and presided over the war against the barbarians of the Huorong country, within three days, they won the first battle and invaded the northern border Shourong City, which is nearly [-] miles to the south. The barbarians of Huorong Kingdom were beaten and fled back to Shourong City.

Then, within seven days, the barbarians of Huorong Country were beaten again and forced to withdraw from Shourong City and head towards the border.

Afterwards, there were many successes along the way, and the barbarians of the Tinder Country retreated steadily!

Ever since the "Military God" thirteenth prince set off for the northern border, the familiar continuous sound of good news also reappeared in the streets and alleys of the capital.

"Report~~ Under the leadership of the thirteenth prince, the Vulcan Army won the first battle and curbed the continued invasion of the Tinder barbarians!"

"Report~~ Under the leadership of the thirteenth prince, the Vulcan Army won another big victory and regained Shourong City!"

"Report~~Under the wise leadership of the thirteenth prince, our army has driven the barbarians of Huorong Kingdom out of the Great Zhou Kingdom!"

"Report~~ The barbarians of the Huorong Kingdom were frightened by the Thirteenth Prince and my Vulcan Army, so we propose a peace agreement!"

One good news after another, in less than two months, the Huorong Kingdom was kicked out of the territory of the Great Zhou!
What's even more outrageous is that the barbarians of the Tinder Nation, who have always been vicious and fearless of life and death, were frightened by the beating and proposed peace!This is simply unheard of, unseen! !
When the old emperor received the good news one after another, he was completely stunned.

Especially when he received the news that the barbarians of Huorong Country were about to negotiate a peace, he felt like he was dreaming!
"how can that be?!"

Even the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty didn't scare the uncivilized barbarians of Huorong Kingdom. How did the thirteen sons do it? !

And, in just two months!

"It is said that His Highness Thirteenth invented a thing called 'gunpowder' and used it to make a magic weapon called 'bomb'."

The dark guard of the dark night division who reported the report answered the doubts in the old emperor's mind, "I heard people say that this 'bomb' magic weapon has the power of thunder, and one bomb can kill dozens of barbarians in the Tinder country."

"'Bomb' magic weapon?"

The old emperor was full of doubts, frowned and said: "You ask the northern border to bring one to show me."

"Yes!"

The dark guard who reported agreed.

Seven days later.

The palace, the imperial study.

A soldier of the Vulcan Army in the north brought a "bomb" magic soldier.

Looking at the so-called "bomb" magic weapon with a tubular shape and an ordinary appearance, the old emperor wanted to reach out to touch it, but was hurriedly told by the Vulcan Army soldier: "Your Majesty, this thing is dangerous. The method of use may harm His Majesty, so let the subordinates demonstrate it."

The old emperor nodded when he heard the words, but didn't say anything.

Afterwards, everyone came to the courtyard of the Imperial Study for a demonstration.

The general pulled out the tube-shaped "bomb" soldier, and after pulling out a long and thin rope that was exposed, he raised his hand and threw it out.

After a while—

"boom!"

A huge explosion sounded from the courtyard of the Imperial Study Room, shaking the palace!
When the smoke from the explosion dissipated, everyone could see that the explosion site was in a mess, with ruins everywhere, and the ground was burnt black.

hiss!
Seeing the power of this "bomb" soldier, everyone present could not help but gasp.

However, when the old emperor looked at the scorched black ground and mess caused by the explosion, there was a "buzz" in his head, and a strong sense of dizziness suddenly came to his head.

At the same time, a series of pictures also emerged in his mind at this time.

The ruined courtyard...

On the scorched ground...

Flesh and flesh splattered all over the place...

The four Taoists are not human, ghosts or ghosts, and the figures lying everywhere...

It was him!

It was him! !
It turned out to be him! ! !

When the old emperor understood the truth of the so-called "Heavenly Thunder", his whole body was filled with energy and blood, and his eyes were even redder. He couldn't help but let out an angry roar that shocked the entire Imperial Study Room:
"Rebel!!!"
