The Path of the Cannon Fodder’s Counterattack

Chapter 56: Extremely smart

Views:

The emperor traveled thousands of miles from Mu country to Shao country, and it was still silent, Ling Xiao vaguely knew what purpose he had.

And this purpose is definitely not to bring myself back.

Otherwise, that night, he would be able to take himself away...

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao's heart was extremely complicated, he didn't know whether he should be more fortunate or more sad.

However, no matter what the emperor wants, Fu Yujun is now in crisis, and he can't ignore it.

One is that Ling Xiao can't do nothing but see death, and the other is, if Fu Yujun loses, the Eldest Prince is found and he falls into the hands of the Eldest Prince, will there be a good result

Assuming that I was really protected by Hongye, if I didn't fall into the hands of Prince Shao, it would also fall into the hands of Emperor Mu...

If this falls into the hands of the emperor, his own result...

Ling Xiao suddenly shuddered... He quickly shook his head to stop himself from thinking.

No, no matter it's for himself or something else, nothing can happen to Fu Yujun at this time!

But if you want to save Fu Yujun, it doesn't mean that you can save it.

With 50,000 soldiers fighting against an army of 300,000, Ling Xiao didn't know whether to praise Fu Yujun for his courage, or call him stupid.

This is undoubtedly going to die, and the only thing that can save him is modern weapons, such as guns, such as gunpowder...

Thinking like this, Ling Xiao swept his gaze around the secret room, looking at the charcoal in the corner, the saltpeter contained in the wall stones, and the spare sulfur sprinkled around to prevent insects and ants. Thinking about it, his eyes fell on Xiao Feng.

His idea must have supporters.

Thinking of this, Ling Xiao walked to Xiao Feng's side and sat down, looked at the wound on his body, and approached him, "Guard Xiao, how is your injury?"

"It's nothing, it's just a few flesh wounds, son, don't worry, this subordinate will take good care of you." Xiao Feng replied loyally, but his eyes were treacherous, as if he was trying to figure out what Ling Xiao was thinking.

Ling Xiao sneered, what's the point of exploring his own thoughts at this time.

Although he is not familiar with this Xiao Feng, he has heard a little bit about him. He is usually smooth and not good at martial arts, but he has a lot of tricks and is highly valued by Fu Yujun's side. When he went to Muguo, Fu Yujun took him with him. On it, this time I entrusted myself to him.

And this Xiao Feng did not disappoint Fu Yujun's kindness. In this critical moment, he did his best to serve Fu Yujun.

Is a loyal and reliable person.

Thinking like this, Ling Xiao leaned closer to Xiao Feng and asked in a low voice: "Guard Xiao, are you worried about the Second Prince?"

Xiao Feng was taken aback when he heard the words, and fell silent. Just this silence made Ling Xiao understand that Xiao Feng was worried.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao took the opportunity to make assumptions and tested Xiao Feng's wishes.

"If we go out and save him..."

"No!" Xiao Feng quickly interrupted Ling Xiao with a frown: "It's just us, not to mention that we can't save the prince, and going out rashly will only lead to death. Besides, what the prince told his subordinates is to protect the young master well. If the prince has something to do , how should the subordinate explain to the prince."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao said fiercely: "If he is dead, what will you explain to him?"

"!" Xiao Feng was shocked when he heard the words, he had a strong dislike for these words, he stared at Ling Xiao with dissatisfaction.

And Ling Xiao looked at Xiao Feng like this, his eyes were full of calm.

When Xiao Feng saw the person in front of him, his eyes were bright, his face was calm, and he had a calm posture. Although he was not tall, Ling Xiao's appearance obviously calmed him down.

He frowned lightly, but he also accepted Ling Xiao's words in his heart.

He was silent for a while, and suddenly a cunning flashed in his eyes and asked: "The young master said so, but what idea do you already have?"

Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, this Xiao Feng was worthy of being someone Fu Yujun valued, he reacted within such a short period of time, and saw his intentions.

Ling Xiao smiled lightly, but he didn't intend to continue to make detours, so he said: "I do have a way to save him, but let me ask you first."

"This big guy, is he willing to go out with me? But he may not come back with his life."

Hearing this, Xiao Feng frowned seriously, looked at Ling Xiao, he hesitated and said: "My lord, can you tell your subordinates the method, and the subordinates will take someone to do it, you keep it, don't go out, if you something..."

Ling Xiao sneered, interrupting Xiao Feng's worries: "Have you thought about it, if you are all dead, even if I stay here, how much better will the result be? Why not take me with you, let's all advance and retreat together, let alone I don't think we're going to lose."

Seeing that Ling Xiao was so confident, Xiao Feng couldn't help asking curiously: "My lord, what can we do?"

Hearing this, Ling Xiao thought for a while, then raised his eyebrows and said: "I know one thing, which can make the army fight with one against a hundred, and turn defeat into victory for the Second Prince."

Xiao Feng was surprised when he heard the words: "Is this true?"

Ling Xiao nodded. Seeing this, Xiao Feng pursed his lips silently. He knew that the Second Prince was in deep crisis. If he really couldn't resist, they would not be safe here.

If there is one thing that can make the second prince turn defeat into victory, it is indeed better than they stay here and stick to it.

Thinking like this, Xiao Feng gritted his teeth, as if he had made a major decision, he got up and knelt down in front of Ling Xiao: "So, this subordinate is willing to follow Young Master and obey Young Master's arrangement."

Seeing Xiao Feng like this, everyone got up and knelt in front of Ling Xiao, saying in agreement: "Subordinates, I am willing to follow you and obey your arrangement."

It's not that Ling Xiao has never seen so many people kneeling in front of him. In fact, when he was next to the emperor, when he was injured, everyone also knelt towards him because of the emperor's actions, but Ling Xiao understood that it was The guards were hindered by the emperor's dragon power.

But at this time, these people were kneeling towards him, they were really facing him, and the man was aiming in all directions. Such a scene made Ling Xiao's blood boil and his heart beat violently. He stood up and looked down. The crowd was so excited that they couldn't speak for a while.

From the eyes of everyone, Ling Xiao got up quite imposingly, with a small body, he calmly and calmly faced their obedience, neither humble nor overbearing, this posture, could not help but convince everyone, bowed his head even more obediently .

Seeing this, Xiao Feng raised his head and said, "My lord, if you can really rescue the prince this time, you will be the benefactor of our Shao country. Everyone in Shao country will be grateful to you."

Ling Xiao was awakened by his words, he slightly calmed down the excitement in his heart, helped him up, and said softly: "Get up, if that's the case, trust me."

Even though he said that, Ling Xiao was still a little uneasy.

He knows the inside story, and there are also raw materials for making gunpowder here.

Everything is ready.

but…

Although Ling Xiao was in modern times, he sneaked into the chemical laboratory out of curiosity, secretly made gunpowder once, and succeeded.

But he has never tried to make gunpowder in this world, and in the modern chemical laboratory, the raw materials are bought ready-made by him. If the raw materials here are added with substances that he does not know, what will go wrong...

Ling Xiao sighed, although he knew the danger, but now he had no room for hesitation, he could only hope that his golden finger after rebirth would be useful.

Thinking like this, Ling Xiao got up and directed everyone to move the raw materials to the place where the fire was made.

Hongye saw everything in her eyes, and silently lowered her eyes, her acupuncture point had already been opened, the rope was no threat to her, she could definitely take Ling Xiao away and bring him to the emperor's side now.

but…

Hong Ye lowered her eyes gloomyly, the Emperor loves Ling Xiao so much, but Ling Xiao does not appreciate it several times, this really makes Hong Ye annoyed and dissatisfied.

It also made her want to teach Ling Xiao a lesson, but the Emperor loves Ling Xiao so much, if she takes action, she will definitely be punished by the Emperor...

It is because of this that Hongye dare not blatantly dislike Ling Xiao until now.

But now, this Ling Xiao committed suicide, so he can't blame her for not helping.

She was "tied", "bound", "powerless".

Hongye lowered her head, hiding the calculations on her face under the shadow.

The sky was filled with flames and gunpowder smoke, and an army of 300,000 troops had already approached the palace. At this time, with 50,000 soldiers and horses in hand, Fu Yujun had resisted for an entire afternoon.

Fifty thousand soldiers and horses killed countless enemies with very little damage. Fu Yujun used his intelligence to lay traps one after another, leading the army all the way into the traps he set, and then beheaded them one by one.

However, one afternoon passed, and countless soldiers and horses were beheaded...

However, looking down from the high platform of the palace, there were only a lot more soldiers and horses guarding outside the palace.

Has Fu Shangjun's good emperor brother obtained soldiers and horses from other places

Is it the surrender of others

No, maybe his good emperor brother was bewitched by people from other countries and made some kind of deal secretly.

Fu Yujun's face was gloomy. If it was just the emperor who wanted to be the king, he would have to give up. However, he knows his emperor too well. He has no ambitions. He only knows how to eat, drink and play. How could he suddenly rebel? Someone must be instigating it.

And this person is likely to be from another country...

A flash passed through Fu Yujun's mind, and the face of the Muguo Emperor clenched his fists instantly.

The Shao Kingdom must not fall into the hands of other countries. This time, even if he dies in battle, the palace must be guarded to the death!

Fu Yujun gritted his teeth and turned around, but suddenly saw his soldiers sitting and lying around exhausted, obviously exhausted...

But outside the palace, those people were full of energy and fighting spirit.

In this way, how can we fight

Fu Yujun suddenly felt a wave of despair, is he going to lose like this!

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom!", which shocked Fu Yujun to look back.

Then he saw thick smoke outside the palace, and a hole was smashed out there by something.

The soldiers around the hole were either injured by the object, or they suddenly fainted crookedly as if they were possessed by an evil spirit.

The sudden change has stunned Fu Shangjun's army. The soldiers are full of fear of the unknown, and they consciously stay away from the place where the incident happened.

Fu Yujun was surprised, and stared down closely.

Soon, I saw an open-top carriage running from a distance, taking advantage of the fact that the soldiers did not dare to touch the place where the incident happened, the carriage ran straight towards the palace from there.

And there were many bamboo pipes in the middle of the carriage, surrounded by circle after circle of guards with knives, the guards held torches in their hands and covered their faces with veils.

The two people sitting in front of the carriage, one driving the carriage and the other sitting beside them, were also covered with face veils.

Fu Yujun felt that this figure was very familiar, but it was too far away, and he couldn't see who these people were.

I just saw that these people recklessly rushed into Fu Shangjun's army, and ran all the way towards the palace regardless.

They chose to drive from the place where a hole had just been smashed. It was indeed very wise that the soldiers did not dare to approach at will, but the place was also not very flat, which seriously hindered the progress of the carriage.

The soldiers regained their senses and started to attack the people in the carriage.

Fu Yujun watched them gallop between the soldiers' blades in a carriage with difficulty, and broke into a cold sweat secretly. These people were obviously not with Fu Shangjun, otherwise they would not have been attacked.

The people who will be attacked will only be those on their own side, and their purpose is also obvious, they want to cross the army and drive towards the palace.

But, want to rush into the palace with this carriage

It's too nonsense!

Fu Yujun unknowingly grasped the handrail on the railing, his hands turned white, and several finger marks were deeply sunken on the handrail.

Seeing that the surrounding soldiers were about to surround him, Fu Yujun's heart beat up to his throat.

Ling Xiao was sitting next to Xiao Feng who was driving the carriage, and he also saw the movements of the soldiers. He suddenly gave an order, and saw the surrounding guards grab the bamboo tubes one by one, light the fuses outside the bamboo tubes, and then charged at the surrounding soldiers. They throw it away.

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

A few loud noises that were the same as before, hit the ground below with desolation and billowing smoke and dust, making Fu Yujun unable to see the situation below clearly for a while.

After the dust dispersed, Fu Yujun saw that the soldiers below had been smashed to pieces, and the surrounding soldiers were lying motionless, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.

But the people in the carriage were unscathed and drove towards the palace firmly.

Fu Yujun looked surprised, this carriage is so powerful, no, the thing that should be said to be powerful should be the thing thrown by the guards.

Fu Yujun restrained his expression, and couldn't help but look at the two people sitting in the driver's seat again.

One of them concentrated on driving the carriage, while the other turned his head and yelled something from time to time. His expression seemed to be observing the situation around him. It was obvious that he was the commander of this group of people.

This man, dressed in a blue brocade suit, faced these situations calmly and calmly. Facing such an army, he was calm and orderly, which made people admire him from the bottom of his heart.

Fu Yujun couldn't help but look at him a few more times, but felt that this person's facial features and figure were somewhat familiar...

Seems like...

He widened his eyes in astonishment, and a thought flashed in his heart.

Could this person be... Ling Xiao who he wanted Xiao Feng to protect!

Fu Yujun was startled by his own thoughts and broke into a cold sweat, and saw that the man took off his face scarf. Under the face scarf, the delicate face and exquisite facial features were exactly the person he thought of.

Fu Yujun gritted his teeth, with anger and joy on his face, he turned and went downstairs resentfully, hurriedly opened the palace door, rushed out with people, and protected the carriage.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao knew that Fu Yujun had sent someone to meet them, so he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. He got off the carriage with weak legs, and just as his feet touched the ground, he was pulled aside by an external force.

Immediately, his cheek bumped against a thick wall of flesh, and his breath was filled with the strong smell of sweat from a man.

Ling Xiao frowned, and suddenly pushed the person away, only to see Fu Yujun who looked embarrassed.

His face was covered with dust and blood, and his body was spattered with blood, and he didn't know whether the blood was his own or someone else's.

He was looking at Ling Xiao at this moment, with an expression on his face that seemed to be worried or angry, or pleasantly surprised, and somewhat disbelieving.

"Why did you come here!" Fu Yujun scolded, with deep distress in his brows.

Shocked by his expression, Ling Xiao lowered his head uncomfortably and said, "Isn't this here to save you?"

"Can… "

"Okay! Don't talk about it yet, let's deal with the matter in front of us first." Ling Xiao interrupted Fu Yujun, and looked at the encircling army.

The remaining more than 30,000 soldiers and horses all came out in full force, protecting Ling Xiao, Fu Yujun and others inside, but outside was the dense army of Fu Shangjun.

In terms of numbers, Fu Shangjun obviously had the upper hand, and Fu Yujun was already planning for the worst, thinking about how to keep Ling Xiao down.

Ling Xiao suddenly climbed into the carriage again, Fu Yujun was startled, he hurriedly pulled him back and said, "What are you doing, standing on top, the archers over there will use you as a target."

"It's okay!" Ling Xiao shook him off: "Everything is risky, you just keep those people away from us, the next thing is to look at the secret weapon!"

Secret weapon

Fu Yujun was puzzled. Seeing this, Xiao Feng came to Fu Yujun and told him, "Prince, it's something called 'Gunpowder', made by the Young Master, it's extremely powerful, it can defeat a hundred with one, that's what it is."

Xiao Feng pointed to the bamboo tubes on the carriage. Fu Yujun looked at them. The bamboo tubes on the carriage were not eye-catching. Are they as powerful as Xiao Feng said? Prince, don't look at it as inconspicuous, the loud noise you heard just now was made when this thing was ignited."

Fu Yujun was surprised, and saw Ling Xiao directing the people he had brought, standing on the carriage, the group of people outside stood holding their shields, and the people inside lit the bamboo tubes one by one and threw them at the direction Ling Xiao was pointing at. far away...

"boom!"

For every bamboo tube thrown out, a loud noise could be heard immediately, followed by the wailing of the enemy and the soldiers who fell in pieces.

This thing is so powerful! Was it made by little slaves

The little slave is so powerful!

Fu Yujun looked at Ling Xiao, and saw that little servant standing majesticly beside the carriage, directing the crowd to fight, full of vigor.

The little servant acted calmly and unhurriedly, as if he was confident about the victory of this battle, which undoubtedly encouraged the soldiers present.

Make people believe in him from body to heart.

Fu Yujun watched, his heart pounded, and obsession gradually appeared in his eyes.

This is the little servant he likes~

So different.

He was obviously terrified to death, but at critical moments, he would never leave anyone behind.

He is obviously timid to death, but at a critical moment, he can be so majestic and high-spirited.

Obviously talented, but always hides himself in the crowd.

It's so low-key...

Fortunately, I still found him, and found him who was different.

Fu Yujun felt lucky that he didn't miss Ling Xiao, and felt happy that he was fascinated by him.

He thought that no one in this life would make him so moved again.

On this side, Ling Xiao's command was precise, and after Fu Shangjun and others were repeatedly frustrated over there, someone finally noticed that it was Ling Xiao who was playing tricks.

They finally shifted their focus to Ling Xiao. The bows and arrows in the hands of the archers were aimed at Ling Xiao who was standing on the carriage and focused on commanding.

Fu Shangjun gave an order, and the archers hidden in the dark exerted their strength, and the bow and arrow shot towards Ling Xiao.

Seeing it with sharp eyes, Fu Yujun pulled Ling Xiao to dodge several hidden arrows, and his expression darkened instantly.

Ling Xiao stared blankly, and leaned on Fu Yujun's body with lingering fear, his feet were a little weak.

I almost... met Hades...

Seeing this, Fu Yujun was very distressed, he patted Ling Xiao's head comfortingly, looking at the flames of war not far away, Fu Yujun made a major decision in his heart.

He took a deep breath, moved to Ling Xiao's face and pressed a kiss on Ling Xiao's face like a nostalgia, leaned into his ear and whispered: "If I accidentally die, Shao Kingdom will be handed over to you."

As he said, he took out a heavy package from nowhere, quickly stuffed it into Ling Xiao's arms, reached out and snatched Xiao Feng's saber, pushed Ling Xiao in front of Xiao Feng, and said: "I swear to die!" Protect him, you know?"

Xiao Feng caught Ling Xiao, saw Fu Yujun's serious and irresistible expression, suppressed his doubts, and replied: "Yes."

"No, what are you going to do?" Ling Xiao regained his frightened lost soul, looked at Fu Yujun anxiously and asked.

Fu Yujun grinned at him, showing his white teeth, as if he was so happy when he first met Mu Guo.

"Capture the thief first and capture the king first." As he said that, he turned around and jumped, rushing out with lightness kung fu.

Capture the thief first and capture the king first

He's going to catch Fu Shangjun? ?

Ling Xiao was surprised, he hurriedly ran two steps forward, and stopped him: "No, Fu Yujun, come back, the gunpowder over there is mixed with drugs! You will be unconscious!"

Hearing this, Fu Yujun turned his head and glanced at Ling Xiao, this glance conveyed many messages, and made Ling Xiao understand that it was impossible for Fu Yujun to turn his head.

He had already made up his mind, but fortunately, he heard his own words, maybe he could know about the drugs and avoid them.

Holding the heavy package in his hands, Ling Xiao looked down, only to find that it contained Shao Guo Yuxi and the imperial edict...

Such an important thing!

Ling Xiao suddenly felt that his hand was very hot, and he almost threw the thing in his hand, but finally he silently put it away.

This Fu Yujun is too unreliable to throw such an important thing to himself!

I can't control myself!

He gritted his teeth, climbed back into the carriage, stared at the figure jumping up and down in the distance, secretly tightened his palms, and commanded the crowd to throw gunpowder to open a way for Fu Yujun!

Fu Yujun's approach is undoubtedly not the best way now!

The emperor sat on a high place, watching everything below silently, his eyes finally fixed on Ling Xiao who was standing on the carriage and focused on directing, and he pursed his lips tightly.

This little eunuch really impressed me.

With such talent, one can understand why he wanted to escape from the palace several times.

It's really aggrieved to stay in the small harem.

Sure enough, it should be special to treat him.

The emperor thought, and stood up.

The emperor's expression was uncertain. Seeing this, the guards guarding the side thought that the emperor was about to get angry, so he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty: "Your Majesty, please calm down. General Lan will be here soon, and the second prince of Shao Kingdom cannot escape."

Hearing the words, the emperor glanced at the guard behind him. The guard realized that he should not speculate on the holy will at will, and was instantly frightened into a cold sweat. After a while, the emperor snorted softly, turned around and said leisurely: "Let's go, go down and have a look." .”,

"Yes." The attendant breathed a sigh of relief, and followed the order.

It seemed that the emperor was not angry. On the contrary, he was in a good mood. Otherwise, he had violated a taboo by speculating on the holy will, and the emperor would not let him go so easily.
