Chapter 117

After this incident, the morale of the soldiers stationed on the border has been boosted a lot, and they are not afraid of dying a lot, which has caused a lot of trouble to the Mongolian barbarians.

Originally there were many soldiers stationed on the border, and the Mongolian barbarians usually had to fight one-on-two or one-on-three. Now the soldiers stationed on the border have become stronger, making the Mongolian barbarians clumsy and complaining endlessly.

In this way, the Mongolian barbarians retreated steadily. Every time they talked about the embarrassment of the Mongolian barbarians on the battlefield, the soldiers stationed at the border felt relieved.

If we maintain this momentum and play a few more games, we may not necessarily be able to beat the Mongolian barbarians back to their grandma's house.

Many people thought optimistically, but it was a pity that the good times did not last long. On this day, the Mongolian barbarian army came to attack the city as usual.

The stationed side is also defending in an orderly manner as usual.

I saw the archers of the Mongolian barbarians lined up, aiming at them with arrows one by one, and no time, a group of arrows rained at them.

"Quick, hide!" Jin Xiaoke ordered.

"Lieutenant Jin, don't be afraid, these arrows are slanted."

"Damn, the arrow was shot so far! Are the eyes slanted?"

"Grandchildren like Mongolian barbarians, do you know how to shoot arrows? If you don't know how to ask grandpa to teach you."

"Hahaha"

On the top of the city, the laughter of the soldiers stationed on the border resounded.

"Concealment, these arrows look wrong!" Jin Xiaoke squinted his eyes, looking at these different arrows.

Today, the tips of these arrows are all wrapped in a black mass, unlike the sharp tips of the past.

"Bang-boom-boom-"

Those arrows either fell on the ground or on the city wall, and what was even more surprising was that the arrows that landed on the person immediately exploded with a bang, blasting a big hole in the person's body.

"what--"

"It hurts so much, it hurts me to death."

"my eyes--"

Crying and shouting, one after another, after this batch of arrows rained, after the pungent smell and dust dissipated, Jin Xiaoke opened his eyes, and immediately turned red with anger, only to see that one-third of the people guarding the city with him Two people fell.

Some of them fell from the city wall, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead; some were lying on the ground moaning in pain;

In the tent of the Mongolian barbarian leader, Na Kelu, the deputy leader, laughed, "Hahaha, leader, today's battle was really enjoyable."

Horqin Baru also smiled, sweeping away the haze of being suppressed and beaten by the garrison for the past few days, "Indeed, I never thought that the soldiers garrisoned by the border would be so vulnerable."

Na Kelu asked curiously, "Boss, we have this miraculous explosive, why don't we go all out and capture Lincheng? Then drive straight in and take the capital!"

I thought too, it's just that we're running out of explosives.Horqin Baru thought to himself, but said, "No rush, the time has not yet come."

Nakoro nodded in conviction.

"Did you get someone to find out the ingredients of those explosives?" Horqin Baru asked again.

Speaking of this, Na Kelu was discouraged, "Boss, Na Kelu is very guilty. The explosive bag is full of powder, and I haven't recognized what it is yet. It seems to be sulfur?" This is also very uncertain.

Horqin Baru's eyes dimmed, and he couldn't hide his disappointment. He knew it would not be that easy. The Mongolian barbarians lived in a desolate place, and some herdsmen had never even heard of sulfur, let alone the development of explosives.Thinking of the agreement with that person, Horqin Baru secretly thought, it seems that some things have to be done according to what they said.

"Boss, Mr. Chi, please see me."

Horqin Baru was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Quick pass."

After a while, a man wearing a mask walked in, and the man said directly, "Okay, you have also seen the power of these explosives, and it is time for you to fulfill your promise."

"Well, I've offended Anpingguo to death just by opening my mouth. Sir, shouldn't you give me some compensation?"

Jijun Ling sneered, "You offended Anping to death when you decided to send troops to attack the border, and now you are still worried about this, hypocritical!"

"That's different." Horqin Baru argued, "There is nothing we can do to attack Anping. Even if we fail, we can retreat back to the grassland safely, and at most we have to pay year-old tribute. But my son, it's different. Besides, Princess Jing's status is not ordinary, it is King Jing who is in charge of things in the camp now, once this request is made, King Jing will be the first to let us go."

"So what? Otherwise, do you think that something as good as explosives can be obtained for nothing? Since you are so afraid, you don't have to agree, just give up. You don't have to bear the consequences of breaking the contract. There will be no more of your explosives." Ji Jun Ling said indifferently.

give up?That is impossible.Greed flashed in Horqin Balu's eyes, seeing the power of explosives, it was too difficult to give up.

Think about it some time ago, when the two armies faced each other, the garrison on the border was magnificent, but the Mongolian barbarians were already on the verge of defeat.

If there were no bombs, the Mongolian barbarians would definitely be defeated, and then they would be beaten back to their original place in despair. It was only a matter of time.Thinking of the result of his first dispatch of troops, Horqin Balu refused to accept it.

He has also been worrying a lot these days, but he didn't expect it, but in the blink of an eye, there will be a bright future.Then there will be Mr. Chi, a noble person, who will visit him and bring him the magical gift of dynamite.

"Mr. Chi, don't tell me that you don't know the anger of the soldiers stationed on the border after our request spread. Faced with this situation, if you don't give more explosives, we Mongolian barbarians will suffer. We are not No, I just want you to provide more explosives as protection."

"Okay, then I'll give you ten catties more." Ji Jun Ling seemed to compromise.

"If they refuse to surrender, you can beat me until he is scared." When Ji Jun Ling said this, there was a faint coldness in his eyes.

"Is ten catties too little?" Horqin Balu licked his lips.

"Don't push yourself too far." Ji Jun Ling glanced at him.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

After the second runner-up zero left, Horqin Baru told Na Kelu, "Later, send two people to tell Deng Dayuan that if they still want to live a stable life, they will hand over Princess Jing. By the way, tell them, we only give They have three days, if we don't see anyone after three days, we will directly bomb the city!"

"Yes!" Na Kelu replied excitedly, and then went out to make arrangements.Anping's concubine, what a shame it is to Anping if she really handed it over.

In fact, Horqin Baru was very curious about who Mr. Chi was, who had such a deep hatred with Princess Jing, and giving them such a big gift was to ask them to take Princess Jing in front of all the soldiers when the two armies confronted each other.

The movement here is so big that the army's rear defense not far away also knows it.

Not knowing what happened, both of them couldn't sit still.

At this moment, a comfort officer rushed in and said, "King Jing, General Deng, the Mongolian barbarians have used new weapons."

Ji Lingchen and General Deng exchanged glances, "Go, let's have a look."

The city wall was really devastated, and the two looked at the fallen soldiers sadly.

At this moment, a stray arrow flew towards the two of them, and the adjutant who was following them didn't know why, so he swung the knife in his hand and wanted to cut at the arrow.

Suddenly Jin Xiaoke's voice came from behind, "Don't cut it!"

Then, Ji Lingchen and the two were thrown to the ground.

And that arrow also fell to the ground, creating a crater.

"What the hell is this?" The adjutant was taken aback.

"Is this the new weapon of the Mongolian barbarians?" General Deng asked.

"Yes."

Ji Lingchen's complexion was not good either, looking at the pit on the ground with a solemn expression.

Just when everyone's hearts were drooping, the constant explosion stopped.

"Look, everyone, the Mongolian barbarians have withdrawn and retreated!" There was a cheer, followed by bitter cries.

"The Mongolian barbarians withdrew?" Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, it's impossible, why didn't they continue with all their might?

Everyone ran to the front one after another, stood on a high place and saw that the Mongolian barbarians were slowly withdrawing their troops.

"Maybe they have a reason to withdraw." Everyone speculated.

General Deng ordered, "Send spies to find out what made them give up the opportunity to attack the border. These brothers, the wounded will be carried to treat the wounds, and the dead will be carried to one place and cremated." Bar."

Seeing the casualties all over the place, everyone was silent, and began to work with a heavy heart.

"Notify the whole battalion that all the generals above the seventh rank have come to the main tent to discuss matters!" Ji Lingchen finished speaking, and went back to the main tent first.

What happened today was a big blow to the stationed in the border. They didn't know what the new weapons of the Mongolian barbarians were, why they were so powerful, and how many such weapons they had.

General Deng also had a solemn expression on his face, and followed him unhurriedly.

The people behind him also hurriedly followed, Jin Xiaoke was young and walked humbly at the end.

Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, seeing Du Sheng sticking out his nose and sniffing around, he called out impatiently, "Old Du, why don't you hurry up? What are you doing so weirdly, now is not the time to play. "

Du Sheng muttered, "It's nothing, I'm leaving now." But after thinking about it in his heart, the smell was indeed sulfur, and there was a trace of other smells, which were covered up by it.Who could straighten out this thing faster than him.

"hurry up."

"The enemy has this thing, how can we fight this battle?"

In the main tent, everyone's complexion is not good. The news that the Mongolian barbarians have new weapons is really a blow to them.

"Report, the Mongolian barbarians sent two envoys." The soldier outside the door said loudly outside the tent.

"pass!"

Not long after, two messengers from Mongolian barbarians walked in swaggeringly.

"I don't know why the two envoys came here this time?" asked a general who was not of high rank stationed here.

"Presumably your country has seen the power of our new weapon explosives. You only need to agree to two conditions with us Mongolian barbarians, and you will be spared the suffering of war." One of the messengers said proudly.

"What conditions?" Someone asked anxiously.

Ji Lingchen glanced at the man, and asked, "You mean, if we agree to your two conditions when stationed at the border, you Mongolian barbarians will retreat?"

"That depends on the sincerity of your stationing on the border, and we only promise not to take the initiative to enter the army."

Hearing this, Ji Lingchen smiled faintly, and there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.Mongolian barbarians, a nomadic people, dared to play word games with them.

"Your conditions, tell me and listen."

"I have always heard that Princess Jing is more beautiful than Xishi. Our leader admires her very much and wants to marry her back to Mobei. I also hope that your country can cut her love." The Mongolian barbarian came to say.

"Impossible!" Jin Xiaoke shouted out first.

Ji Lingchen raised his hand to stop Jin Xiaoke's movement, "What about the second condition?"

"The second condition can't be discussed until you have fulfilled the first condition." The envoy is also shrewd, "I'll give you three days to think about it. If we don't see anyone after three days, you can just wait for our explosives to blow up the city." .”

After the two envoys conveyed their leader's words, they walked away arrogantly.

Seeing that King Jing and General Deng didn't say anything, everyone in the tent let them go out safely.

"I'm going to kill them!" Jin Xiaoke roared with red eyes.

"Calm down!" Ji Lingchen said coldly, "I want to kill them more than you, but we must endure!" Because if we kill them, there will be no grace period of three days.He can't take the lives of so many soldiers and people in Lincheng as willful.

These people, wait for him, one by one, don't even try to escape!

After a while, General Deng said, "Let's stop here for today, let's break up first, everyone will think about how to fight this battle when we go back. Don't take chances and expect to use a woman to exchange for a moment of peace!" "

After the supreme leader said so, everyone in the tent looked at each other without making a sound, and left the tent one after another, but only he knew what was in his heart.

"My lord, Du Sheng asks to see you." A guard's voice sounded from outside the tent.

Ji Lingchen buried his head in his thoughts, and just about to say no, he suddenly remembered that Qin Anan had let him in, and he had always been obedient and not too disturbing.

Thinking of Qin An'an, his heart couldn't help softening, and thinking about the conditions proposed by the Mongolian barbarians, the anger in his heart quietly spread again, but he suppressed it forcefully.

"Let him in."

After Du Sheng came in, Ji Lingchen glanced at him, "What can you do with me?" He flipped through the book and asked indifferently.

"Returning to the lord, the new weapons and explosives used by the Mongolian barbarians today, the grassroots know the ingredients, but they don't know the ratio."

"What did you say?!"

Ji Lingchen stood up excitedly and interrupted his words. Du Sheng was startled by him, and unconsciously repeated what he had just said.

Ji Lingchen walked back and forth in the tent, stopped for a while, stared at him and said, "According to what you mean, can you make explosives if you give you enough materials and time?"

Du Sheng hesitated for a moment, "That's right, but one of these materials is not easy to get." Back then, in order to get some materials, he dug up many old family wall foundations, and he was often pointed out for this. point.

Ji Lingchen waved his hand, "You don't need to worry about these, I will get you the materials, but the time is only three days for you, there is no more. Can you guarantee to get the explosives?"

"Yes!" Du Sheng answered quickly. He has been studying this thing for a long time, and he already had some clues last time, but he didn't expect that it would cause such a big fire and hurt innocent people.
