Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

As soon as he finished speaking, one person immediately raised his hand and said, "Marquis Jianye, I can't get used to it." Lin Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Okay! Come on, prepare some more local food for this general." He turned to look at the others, "The rest of you eat first and listen to me."

After everyone quieted down, Lin Xiaofeng began to talk about the real purpose of Jingjiang's visit to the West. "I believe you still have doubts in your mind, why did I, Jingjiang, suddenly lead troops to visit the West? Will this move pose a threat to other countries? Today I can give you a positive answer!" He said in a sonorous and powerful voice.

Lin Xiaofeng's words made everyone present prick up their ears, and they all wanted to hear what kind of explanation this Jianye Marquis would give. And Lin Xiaofeng did not disappoint everyone, he elaborated in detail the purpose and intention of Jingjiang's action, so that everyone present understood Jingjiang's sincerity and determination.

His voice reverberated in the hall, as if it had a magical power, moving everyone present. When he said, "Jingjiang has only come to the west to seek peace and cooperation," thunderous applause rang out in the hall. These generals are all experienced men. They can understand Jingjiang's sincerity and determination, and are willing to work hand in hand with Jingjiang to create a better future.

At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng stood in the center of the hall, accepting the applause and respect of the crowd. He knew that his mission was not yet completed, but he believed that as long as everyone worked together and struggled together, they would be able to create a better future!

Amid the warm applause of the crowd, Lin Xiaofeng continued his speech. He explained in detail the contradictions between the old and new churches and how Jingjiang was forced to be involved in this dispute. His words were full of passion and sense of justice, which moved everyone present.

When Lin Xiaofeng sighed and told the shocking information, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense. Everyone was shocked! They couldn't imagine that the Divine Emperor was captured by the Emperor of Luxi Fort, and the six major dioceses were also controlled by Prince Jingjiang who defected to the West. This news was too shocking for them to accept for a while.

However, Lin Xiaofeng continued to expose the conspiracy without fear, knowing that only by making the truth public could he arouse everyone's vigilance and resistance. His words were like a sharp blade piercing the heart of the enemy, leaving them nowhere to hide.

General Mod nodded carefully. The doubts in his heart finally got a reasonable explanation. The sudden appearance of the divine punishment weapon and Jingjiang's mastery of more advanced weapon technology all originated from the defected prince. All of this proved Jingjiang's innocence and they were also victims!
Lin Xiaofeng's words gradually came to an end, but his words left a deep impression in everyone's heart. The hall fell into a brief silence. Everyone was digesting this shocking news, and Lin Xiaofeng stood there quietly, waiting for their response. He knew that he had finished speaking, and it would depend on how these generals would choose.

After a long time, General Mod was the first to stand up. He solemnly thanked Lin Xiaofeng and expressed his willingness to cooperate with Jingjiang. With his lead, other generals also expressed their support for Jingjiang's actions and were willing to work together to fight against the defected prince and the forces of Luxi Fort.

At this moment, Lin Xiaofeng knew that they had succeeded! Although this diplomatic struggle was difficult and tortuous, they finally won the trust and support of these generals, which brought them one step closer to victory!
In the wide and dim hall, the generals stood silently, their eyes flashing deep light under the dim light. Although Lin Xiaofeng's words were less emotional after being translated, his passion still moved everyone present. However, these battle-hardened generals were not easily moved by words.

Lin Xiaofeng's words were well-reasoned and impeccable. Whether the six major dioceses were controlled by the traitors in Jingjiang was a question that lingered in everyone's mind. Although there were doubts, they were not strong. After all, among this group of people, Luoxi Luoguo, as the largest force to protect the original Holy City, had a strong national strength, and Mod had the highest prestige. Even he nodded in agreement that the divine punishment weapon originated from Jingjiang, so there should be no problem.

However, whether Jingjiang came to quell the rebellion or not was not important. What was important was whether the power of the old church could be completely eliminated. The power outside the six dioceses of the old church had been eliminated. The new emperor obviously did not have much ambition, and Jingjiang only wanted to do business with others. The interests originally controlled by the old church had been divided up by the upper nobles of various countries. Once the old power successfully made a comeback, the interests that had been taken would have to be spit out sooner or later.

Everyone was happy to see the old church forces completely eliminated and a new stable pattern formed. This was also the consensus reached with the upper echelons when the generals from various countries came. Lin Xiaofeng observed for a long time and saw that no one raised any objections, so he asked: "If anyone has any questions, please feel free to speak up."

General Mod stood up, his figure looking particularly tall under the light. "I have no doubts about the reason for Jingjiang's war. However, I still have two questions for your majesty." His voice echoed in the hall. "Your majesty, when will Jingjiang's army be ready to march? What is the route of the march?"

As soon as this question was asked, the other generals immediately started to whisper. They felt that Maud's question was too direct. Even if the people of Jingjiang were honest, they couldn't ask like that, right? Moreover, even if they were invited to watch the battle, they couldn't ask directly about military secrets!

Lin Xiaofeng looked at Li Dexian, who nodded. He then stood up and said, "That's a good question. I am willing to be frank with you on this issue." His voice was calm and firm. "In seven days, my Jingjiang army will be ready to march towards the six major dioceses. As for the route..."

Li Dexian stood up and walked to the map. Lin Xiaofeng immediately called for a pen and ink. Li Dexian took up the pen and pointed at the map with the end of the pen. He said, "This is the Holy City, and this is Luxi Fort. It is still unknown whether the rebel king of Jingjiang will appear on the front line of the battlefield. Therefore, Jingjiang will send troops to directly capture Luxi Fort."

As he spoke, he took a pen and drew a long straight line on the map, starting from the Holy City, passing through the six dioceses and ending at Luxi Fort. This straight line was like a sharp sword, pointing directly at the heart of the enemy.

The gentle discussion in the hall came to an abrupt end, and everyone looked at each other, looking at the map with confusion. Maud froze in place, and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, what does this line mean?"

Li Dexian's mouth curled up, and he was about to show off, but Lin Xiaofeng said first: "It's simple to say! Our Majesty is also a mathematician. The meaning of this line is... Between two points, the straight line is the shortest."

Mo De understood the meaning of this sentence, but what does it have to do with the tactical and strategic arrangements of war? "Can the Marquis of Jianye explain it further?" he asked doubtfully.

Lin Xiaofeng explained easily: "To put it simply, it is to walk in a straight line. Although the barbarians in the west are kind, your majesty is a nostalgic person and is anxious to go home for dinner. On the way, we will kill gods and Buddhas when we meet them, and finally put down the rebellion and go home." He paused and continued: "Of course, it is impossible to walk in a straight line. We will only choose the most direct and convenient route when marching, that's what I mean."

Li Dexian crossed his arms and nodded twice to show his agreement. However, this explanation gave everyone a sense of absurdity. They felt that the attitude of the people of Jingjiang was too relaxed, as if they were not fighting a war, but going on a picnic. Can such an emperor... win a battle?
However, Mod quickly rejected his idea. He understood that the Emperor of Jingjiang had just met with a group of outsiders and would never reveal the specific tactical arrangements. The other party was unwilling to answer and was just joking. Since the other party was so perfunctory, he could not ask any more questions and could only respond casually.

Then, Mod tentatively asked, "I have another question for your majesty. Can the divine punishment weapons in Jingjiang be sold to our country?" As soon as this question came out, the eyes of everyone present lit up. They had already heard and seen the power of the divine punishment weapons. If they could get such weapons, it would undoubtedly be a great help to their country.

Li Dexian instinctively wanted to refuse, but Lin Xiaofeng took over and said, "Yes, of course. As long as the price is right, I can sell anything in Jingjiang." There was a sense of confidence in his words.

"Really?" Everyone's eyes lit up, as if they saw hope.

Li Dexian tugged at Lin Xiaofeng's sleeve and whispered, "Old Lin, that is a national treasure. How can you sell it to them so easily?" He looked at Lin Xiaofeng with some concern.

"Your Majesty, our weapons will definitely become obsolete in the future. The flintlock rifles, pistols and old-style cannons currently in the army are all produced at great expense and will be obsolete before they are even used much. It is just right to sell them to them." Lin Xiaofeng explained in a low voice, "Of course, the newest and best weapons should still be in our own hands."

He looked up at the crowd and said with a smile: "Since you are all so interested, why not take this opportunity to make some money from him!" His words revealed the shrewdness of a businessman.

"That's right, that's the truth... it's a waste to keep those junks." Li Dexian nodded in agreement. He had seen the power of the new equipment before, and he no longer cared about the old weapons.

Lin Xiaofeng returned his gaze to the crowd and continued, "Speaking of the so-called divine punishment weapons, they are actually hot weapons in Jingjiang, and there are far more than one kind. The city defense cannon is the prototype of the divine punishment weapon, also known as the Nine-Sky Thunder Protector of the Country General Cannon! It is expensive and contains a lot of precious metals. It needs to be used with Jingjiang's special shells. There are also hot weapons suitable for individual combat, such as the heroic weapon flintlock unicorn and Jingjiang Eagle."

His words were full of pride and boasting. The names and power of these hot weapons shocked the generals present. They all whispered and discussed.

"It can be said without hesitation that Jingjiang's Jing-style equipment is well-known throughout the East. Countless countries have come here after hearing the news. Now Jingjiang has signed thermal weapons trade contracts with many friendly countries." Lin Xiaofeng continued, "Everyone who can come here today must be a friendly country that is willing to sign a contract and have friendly exchanges with Jingjiang. General Mod asked a question, so let's go to visit the thermal weapons after dinner. After that, we can talk about how to trade first, how about it?"

"Good! Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Marquis Jianye, for your hospitality!" Mod responded excitedly, clenching his fists tightly, with enthusiasm in his eyes. He was full of desire and expectation for the Jing-style equipment, as if he had seen the future of his country's growth. The other generals also expressed their agreement and gratitude, and they were full of expectations for this visit and exchange.

Seven days passed in a flash. During this short period of time, Li Dexian was busy preparing the army for the upcoming battle. He was wearing armor and had a firm look in his eyes, as if he had seen the dawn of victory. Lin Xiaofeng was busy establishing friendly relations with generals from various countries and promoting Jingjiang's arms.

"Generals, please look at this rifle." Lin Xiaofeng held a rifle and showed it to the generals watching. "This is the latest weapon developed by our Jingjiang. It has a long range and high accuracy. It is definitely a sharp weapon on the battlefield."

The generals gathered around and were curious about this new weapon. After Lin Xiaofeng's detailed explanation and demonstration, they all expressed their willingness to buy it. Soon, the arms in Jingjiang were sold out, which also made Lin Xiaofeng more confident about the upcoming battle.

The army set out as scheduled, marching towards Marodane. Between the Holy City and Marodane was a vast plain. It was autumn, and the golden wheat fields swayed in the breeze. The army passed through the wheat fields, and the dust raised and the falling wheat ears intertwined, forming a magnificent picture.

In the city of Marodan, Li Pan sat at the table with a sharp gaze. When he learned that the Jingjiang army had set out, he felt an inexplicable throbbing in his heart. He knew the importance of this battle. This was not just a matter of winning or losing a war, but also a key battle that affected his future destiny.

"Your Highness, the Jingjiang army is already at the gates of the city." A general came running to report.

Li Pan stood up suddenly, and said with a firm look: "Pass the order down, the whole army is ready to fight!"

He climbed up the city wall and looked out at the dark mass of Jingjiang troops outside the city. They were like a giant dragon winding their way in, majestic and imposing. Li Pan took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality. He knew that this battle would be extremely difficult, but he also firmly believed that he could win.

"Is the divine punishment weapon ready?" Li Pan asked seriously.

"It's ready!" replied the general beside him.

Li Pan nodded to show that he understood, then turned to all the soldiers and said, "Soldiers! It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only one day to deploy it! Today is the time for us to be loyal to His Majesty and make contributions to the country! I hope you will fight bravely and live up to the Emperor's grace!"

The soldiers were excited and their morale was high! They shouted in unison: "We swear to defend Maraudan City to the death! We swear to be loyal to His Majesty to the death!"

At the same time, in the Jingjiang army, Li Dexian also delivered a pre-war mobilization speech. He waved his sword and said loudly: "Soldiers! We are going to the battle to defend our homeland and dignity! The enemy's strong city is ahead, but we have the courage and determination to move forward! Let us work together to create brilliance!"

The soldiers of Jingjiang were excited and ready to fight! They were ready to fight and were just waiting for the order to shoot at the enemy's heart like an arrow!
The atmosphere was extremely tense as the two armies confronted each other. The divine punishment weapons on the city wall were ready, and the Jingjiang army outside the city also deployed its attack formation. A thrilling battle was about to begin!

However, at this moment, an accident happened. A man in civil servant's clothes rode out from the crack of the city gate and ran straight towards the Jingjiang army. Li Dexian and Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but feel puzzled. Could this be the enemy's envoy? What did they want to do?
The messenger galloped until he reached the front of Jingjiang and then stopped by reining in the reins. He looked around at the soldiers around him and asked loudly, "Who is Lord Lin Xiaofeng?" Lin Xiaofeng rode forward and looked at the messenger in confusion, "I am Lin Xiaofeng, what do you want?" The messenger took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lin Xiaofeng, saying, "Lord Lin, this is a handwritten letter from my Majesty to you, please take a look." Lin Xiaofeng took the letter in confusion and opened it, and was stunned. The letter actually invited him to turn his back on the enemy, surrender with courtesy, and promised him a title of nobility! This is simply a big joke! He sneered and tore the letter to pieces, then righteously rejected the messenger's proposal and said that he would resist to the end! Seeing this, the messenger shook his head helplessly, then turned and left. After the messenger left, Li Dexian looked at Lin Xiaofeng and asked, "What's in the letter?"

Lin Xiaofeng briefly told Li Dexian the contents of the letter. Li Dexian was furious: "What a wishful thinking! We have gone through so much trouble to get here, how can we surrender so easily!" He waved his sword and shouted, "Soldiers! Prepare to attack the city!" However, Lin Xiaofeng stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, please be patient. I think there seems to be a trick in this city." He pointed to the divine punishment weapons that were faintly visible on the city wall and said, "Look at those weapons, they are obviously prepared in advance. If we attack rashly, I am afraid we will suffer heavy losses."

Li Dexian calmed down, carefully observed the situation on the city wall, and nodded, "You are right, we can't act rashly. Pass the order, the whole army retreats three miles to set up camp!" He turned to General Mod and said, "Generals, it seems that this battle will not be so easy. We need to discuss the next tactics carefully." General Mod and other generals nodded in agreement, and then returned to the tent to discuss tactics. Lin Xiaofeng stayed where he was, continued to observe the situation on the city wall, and thought about how to crack the enemy's divine punishment weapon. This battle has just begun, and both sides are nervously preparing for the next offensive and defense.

Lin Xiaofeng knocked his legs against the horse's belly and whispered in the messenger's ear: "Go back and tell him a message for me."

The messenger turned around curiously and asked, "What are you bringing?"

Lin Xiaofeng's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Tell them when we go back that we are here not only for war, but also for peace between the two countries. Tell them that war will only bring endless suffering, and peace is the ultimate destination."

The messenger widened his eyes and looked at Lin Xiaofeng in surprise: "Hiss! Lord Lin, are you kidding?"

Lin Xiaofeng's eyes were like torches, and his face was serious: "Do you think I'm joking? This is a war, be serious!" His voice revealed his unquestionable determination. The expression on the envoy's face changed constantly. He looked up and down at Lin Xiaofeng, full of doubts. He couldn't help but start to wonder if this Lord Lin had a mental problem, or was he deliberately playing a trick on him?

However, Lin Xiaofeng did not say anything more. He turned back to Li Dexian and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, he has already gone back. We should also send someone to the other side to formally declare war, and by the way, let him go back with us."

Upon hearing this, Li Dexian asked loudly, "Come on! Who is willing to go to Jingjiang as an envoy and declare war in the enemy city?"

Luo Huajun was excited at the front. He turned his head and said to Xiang Xiehong beside him: "Old Xie, what do you think of me going? This is an opportunity that will go down in history."

Before Xiang Xiehong could answer, Xie Hongxin's voice suddenly rang out behind Lin Xiaofeng: "I'll go!"

Li Dexian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded approvingly: "Xie Hongxin? Okay, you go! When you come back, I will definitely give you a great military merit!"

Luo Huajun cursed inwardly and grabbed his hair with regret. He was unwilling to accept it. Why did Xie Hongxin always get ahead of him? This time he was not going to fight, but just to declare war. What was there to grab?

Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but frown. He called Xie Hongxin and told him, "You can go, but don't mess around."

Xie Hongxin said seriously, "I understand. I've seen this kind of plot in a play. I want to go into the city first and take a look at the terrain. Otherwise, I won't even know the environment and I'll be at a disadvantage."

Lin Xiaofeng thought about it and felt that what he said made sense, so he sighed and said, "Well, this is just a formality, and you can also gain military merit. It's not dangerous to deliver a message. Be polite and come back as soon as you finish speaking."

"I know." Xie Hongxin said, and rode forward.

The messenger looked at Xie Hongxin and felt a sense of humiliation in his heart. This man did not look like a civil servant, and his eyes did not look very smart. Moreover, he was wearing such a coat in such a hot day. Was he here to humiliate him?

Before he could think about it, Xie Hongxin had already ridden towards the city gate, and the messenger hurriedly followed. The two returned to the foot of the city, and the city gate slowly opened again.

The messenger led Xie Hongxin to the top of the city wall. As soon as they reached the top, a dozen soldiers surrounded them. The leading soldier stepped forward and said vigilantly: "Search!"

However, Xie Hongxin immediately took a few steps back and raised his hand to stop them, saying, "I'll just stand here and talk. No need to search." His tone was firm and left no room for doubt.

Li Pan looked at Xie Hongxin, who was wearing a strange coat, and asked in confusion: "Who are you? And, aren't you hot?"

Xie Hongxin did not answer his question directly, but looked through the soldiers surrounding him, quickly scanning the situation in the city, and memorizing the road in his mind. He said in a deep voice: "I am here to declare war on the orders of His Majesty." After that, he added: "Now that the declaration is done, can we leave?"

Li Pan was somewhat overwhelmed by his directness and disregard. He was stunned for a while before asking, "Well? Are you done? Don't you want to say a few more words?"

"No thanks." Xie Hongxin replied concisely.

Li Pan rolled his eyes, not wanting to pay attention to him anymore. He turned to look at the messenger and asked, "Just now I saw you whispering to Lin Xiaofeng, what did he say?"

The messenger stumbled in his reply: "He said. Uh. He said the emperor asked your majesty to go home for dinner."

When Li Pan heard this, his face suddenly darkened, and he slapped the messenger hard on the face: "How dare you fool me?"

The messenger covered his face and cried, "Really! I also think there is something wrong with Lin Xiaofeng, but that's what he said!"

At this time, Xie Hongxin was already a little impatient: "Can I leave?" He had been surrounded by soldiers for a long time.

Li Pan's attention was drawn to Xie Hongxin again. He stared into Xie Hongxin's eyes and felt a wave of discomfort in his heart. Is this person really not a fool?

"How many soldiers did you bring this time?" Li Pan asked for some unknown reason.

The general beside him glanced at him blankly, as if blaming him for asking such a stupid question. But surprisingly, Xie Hongxin answered honestly: "Two hundred and thirty-seven thousand people, and two thousand Jinyiwei."

This answer shocked everyone, because the number was exactly the same as the result of their investigation! The general was so shocked that his mouth was crooked and his eyes were squinting, while Li Pan raised his eyebrows and couldn't stop smiling. He actually said it!

"Haha! Good, very good!" Li Pan laughed. He felt as if he had seen through the other party's plan. "Let me ask you again, do you know how to arrange your marching route and battle?"

Xie Hongxin answered without hesitation: "I know. From here, we will take the shortest route to Luxi Fort and then return to the capital." His answer stunned everyone. It seemed too straightforward.

Li Pan found it very funny, his eyebrows turned into a figure eight shape: "They are so arrogant, so why are we trying to lure the enemy in? Can't we just let them in directly?" But then he realized that his words might have leaked military secrets, and he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

The general also realized this problem. He whispered, "Your Highness, you didn't believe his lies, did you? He must be pretending to be a fool and came here to mislead us on purpose."

"Pretending?" Li Pan pointed at Xie Hongxin and said, "Have you ever seen someone pretending to be a fool so well? I think this person is very trustworthy." But Xie Hongxin didn't seem to appreciate it: "I heard you talking, and you said I'm a fool?" He asked calmly, with no expression on his face.

Li Pan was not angry, but more convinced that Xie Hongxin was a fool. He laughed sarcastically at the generals on his left and right: "Look! What did I say? He pays attention to different things than normal people." But Xie Hongxin interrupted him again: "I won't argue with you. Can you let me go now?" His tone revealed a hint of impatience.

However, Li Pan did not intend to let him go: "You heard what I said, and you still want to leave?" He suppressed his smile and said to his left and right, "I said Li Dexian is a moron. He was a moron when he was a child! Now he is even more stupid, sending such a bunch of bastards to declare war. If the emperor believes me, he will lead the troops to annihilate them all here!" Although the generals looked unnatural, they still nodded in agreement. In their opinion, this idiot coming to declare war really showed that the other emperor was a moron.

"You want to kill me?" Xie Hongxin asked with a blink, seeming a little surprised by the question. Li Pan leaned over with a face that asked for a beating: "Yes, do you have any objection? When two armies are fighting, envoys should not be killed." He deliberately used this sentence to provoke Xie Hongxin. However, Xie Hongxin asked innocently: "Why kill me? When two armies are fighting, envoys should not be killed." He did not seem to understand why his life was in danger. Li Pan chuckled and explained: "Since you asked sincerely, I will tell you mercifully. This city was originally planned to be given to Jingjiang. When you underestimate the enemy and go deep into the city, we will find an opportunity to annihilate them in one fell swoop. Killing you is just to anger Jingjiang. I want to consume more of your troops. It's that simple." After he finished speaking, he smiled and snapped his fingers: "Go ahead and give him a quick death." As his order was issued, the soldiers who were originally surrounding Xie Hongxin drew their swords and prepared to chop him together. But just before! Xie Hongxin made an unexpected move. He crossed his arms into his coat and pulled his right leg back to squat. Then he took out four black bullets with one hand and threw them to the ground. With the other hand, he took out a mask and put it firmly on his face. This action was so fast that no one had time to react. Then there was a loud bang and a puff of green smoke came out from under the city wall. Lin Xiaofeng was still looking around under the city wall when he suddenly heard Li Dexian's exclamation: "Fuck! Old Lin, look at why there is green smoke on the city wall!"

The projectile streaked across the sky like a meteor, and finally hit the ground fiercely, instantly erupting with a deafening roar. Thick smoke suddenly rose, and a green smoke accompanied by dust spread wildly under Xie Hongxin, as if an unstoppable force, dyeing the surrounding air into chaos.

The soldiers who were originally besieging Xie Hongxin were caught off guard by the sudden smoke and dust. They coughed violently and waved their weapons, but could only hack and slash blindly.

In this chaotic moment, Xie Hongxin took a swift step back and easily escaped from the encirclement. His hands did not stop, and he reached into his coat again, took out eight black bullets, and threw them towards Li Pan.

As a series of explosions sounded, green smoke and dust spread again, completely obscuring Li Pan's vision. Before the expression on his face completely changed, the entire field of vision was submerged in this rich green.

The generals and guards around Li Pan instinctively wanted to draw their swords to fight, but as soon as their right hands were on the hilts, they felt a chill on their necks. Then, a huge sense of weightlessness came over them, and before they could even make any sound, they saw a boot stepping past them.

The whole process was as fast as lightning, and Li Pan felt a surge of panic in his heart. However, before the panic completely dissipated, he felt a sharp pain in his lower body. As if a thick tree trunk hit his crotch hard, Li Pan instantly hunched over, his face flushed, and he almost lost consciousness.

Just as Li Pan was in agony, he felt the hem of his robe being lifted up and then pulled upward. His head was tightly wrapped in the robe, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. However, this did not relieve his pain, but made him feel more difficult to breathe.

Li Pan instinctively wanted to reach out to untie his robe, but unexpectedly, as soon as he reached behind his head, he was firmly grasped by a big hand. Then, he heard a series of fine cracking sounds, which were the sounds of his finger bones being broken. The ten fingers are connected to the heart, and this kind of pain is simply indescribable. Li Pan's head was covered, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The artillery on both sides of the city wall finally realized the seriousness of the situation, and they rushed to the rescue. Dozens of soldiers holding knives rushed desperately to where Xie Hongxin was. However, Xie Hongxin under the mask seemed unusually calm. He could only vaguely see that more and more soldiers were rushing in from outside, but he was not panicked at all.

When the crisis came, Xie Hongxin decisively kicked and broke one of Li Pan's legs. Li Pan fell heavily to the ground, uttering a dull wail. Seeing that he was no longer able to escape, Xie Hongxin breathed a sigh of relief. He reached into his coat again, carefully pulled out two handfuls of black pellets, and then threw them madly to the left and right.

As a series of explosions sounded, green smoke filled the city walls again. The soldiers who rushed over were undoubtedly in a dilemma of visual impairment again. They covered their mouths and noses with one hand and carefully searched for the traces of the murderer with their weapons in the other hand. However, trying to find Xie Hongxin in this thick smoke was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

When all the projectiles were thrown, Xie Hongxin picked up Li Pan on the ground and prepared to evacuate. He took out a rope from his waist and hooked it on the battlement of the city wall, ready to turn over and jump down. However, when he poked his head out of the city wall, he suddenly frowned, he found that the city wall was ten meters high! And the rope hook he brought was only three and a half meters long, obviously not enough for a safe landing, not to mention carrying a person.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Hongxin quickly took off his coat and pulled off Li Pan's pants. He picked up the rope and began to tie a knot while looking around to observe the surrounding situation. Although the green smoke was slowly dissipating, it was still lingering above the top of the city. In a few minutes, it would completely disappear without a trace. The rope, coat and pants together were nearly six meters long, but it was still not long enough.

After throwing down the rope again, Xie Hongxin stuck his head out of the city wall again, still frowning. The height was still too high. He was thinking about how to solve this thorny problem. Suddenly, he saw the sword dropped by the general who had been knocked down before. His eyes lit up, he picked up the sword and rushed into the green mist.

Everyone in front of the Jingjiang army was staring at this scene in amazement. They didn't know what was happening on the city wall. They only saw green mist and a group of soldiers rushing in with swords. Although they didn't know the specific situation, they could clearly see that the opposite city defense system had completely failed, and the gunners operating the cannons had left their posts.

Li Dexian was delighted when he saw the opportunity and immediately shouted: "Cannons! Use the Italian cannons! Break the city for me now! The front camp will follow! The rest of the army will advance together!" With his order, the artillery team in the rear quickly pushed eight Italian cannons to fire. Lin Xiaofeng was sweating at this moment. He said worriedly: "Wait a minute, what's going on? Xie Hongxin is still inside! Your Majesty, this may be a trick." However, he was stunned again before he finished speaking, because the bodies of soldiers began to fall from the top of the city. Soon, more than ten bodies were piled up under the city! At this time, a strong figure jumped out of the smoke carrying a person, and a green track was drawn behind him, and then he pulled the rope and quickly descended from the city wall. When he was about to slide to the end, Xie Hongxin loosened his hand and threw Li Pan face down in the pile of corpses, and he spread his legs and fell steadily towards the corpses on the ground. After two "crunches", Xie Hongxin landed steadily, but he seemed to have stepped on something, but he didn't care and picked up Li Pan, who didn't know whether he was dead or unconscious, and ran towards the front of Jingjiang. At this moment, the words "BioShock" popped up in Lin Xiaofeng's mind uncontrollably! He saw a man wearing a demon mask leap out of the green mist, fly down ten meters, and then rush towards them with a white butt in his hand. This scene frightened everyone. However, when Lin Xiaofeng got closer and saw the figure's body shape and posture, he recognized it at the first time, "Damn! He actually changed his equipment again!" In ecstasy, Lin Xiaofeng shouted, "Someone come! It's Xie Hongxin, go and meet him!" So several flying horses quickly went out to meet Xie Hongxin.

Finally, Xie Hongxin returned to the front of the battle. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he dismounted, took off his mask and began to take off his clothes. Soon, he was stripped down to his underwear. Lin Xiaofeng asked with a dark face: "What's going on inside? Why did you take off all your clothes?" Xie Hongxin replied: "I have poison powder on me. It's very toxic!" Lin Xiaofeng looked at Li Pan in surprise and asked: "Is that thing poisonous? Did you release the green smoke? Who is he?" Xie Hongxin answered truthfully, "I don't know, but the people above call him His Highness. He insisted on killing me, so I acted in self-defense."

As they were talking, the artillery team had already pushed the cannons to the range, and eight Italian cannons broke through the gate and fired frantically! After only one round of shooting, the city gate became devastated, and the soldiers who were supposed to operate the cannons may have been poisoned and still did not return to their positions. After two rounds of bombardment, the city gate was already shaky, and finally the quarter door hanging on the upper right corner could not support it and fell down. With the sound of the broken door falling to the ground, Li Dexian's order sounded at the same time, and the Jingjiang army rushed into the city like a tide. Lin Xiaofeng stood on the side and watched this scene, but he didn't know whether he was happy or sad. This was not what he imagined! Modern weapons have not been used yet, how come the city was broken as soon as they arrived? What if the grandson of the King of Hanjiang is scared and shrinks and dares not fight? Who can stand the siege battles in the future? The more Lin Xiaofeng thought about it, the angrier he got. He glared at Xie Hongxin and said, "I asked you to declare war, but why the hell did you take down the city gate? Why don't you find some clothes to put on? You embarrass me all day long!"
