A conflict broke out between the two groups of soldiers over the issue of military pay and rations.

Both captains wanted to ask each other for an explanation, so the scene just happened.

Jia Peng's face suddenly turned cold when he heard what Li Dashan said.

"Li Dashan, what do you mean?"

"Your soldiers forced us to take something, and you're still here to rake it up?"

Jia Peng asked Li Dashan with a cold tone.

"Means nothing."

"You also know that our military pay is not as good as before."

"It is common sense for something like this to happen." Li Dashan spread his hands and said.

"Then what you're saying is that you don't plan to take care of this matter anymore?"

"Can I think so?" Jia Peng asked coldly.

"Whatever you think." After Li Dashan finished speaking, he turned around and left the scene.

But the next moment, Li Dashan suddenly heard the sound of drawing a sword.

Li Dashan was startled and turned around to look.

It was discovered that Jia Peng slashed directly at the soldier who was grabbing food.

Faced with this unexpected situation, no one could react, and the soldier had already fallen into a pool of blood.

"You don't care, I do!" Jia Peng looked at Li Dashan with a mocking look.

Suddenly, Li Dashan's anger was also aroused.

Everyone was holding in their anger before, but now this happened again.

Li Dashan couldn't bear it anymore and drew his sword directly at Jia Peng.

"Everyone, take down this person who harmed his colleagues!" Li Dashan shouted.

Afterwards, everyone drew their swords and pointed at Jia Peng.

Immediately afterwards, everyone on Jia Peng's side also stepped forward and drew their swords to confront him.

How can his subordinates tolerate his captain being threatened?

"Hmph, no wonder your soldiers want to enter the city to grab food."

"As the saying goes, if a soldier is raging, a general will be raging in a nest."

"They have this idea. It's probably your instructions, right?" Jia Peng began to mock Li Dashan crazily.

"Jia Peng, you despicable villain, give me your life!"

Immediately afterwards, two waves of people fought.

The commander of the Third Army, Zhongli, has died, and no new commander has been appointed.

The entire legion was leaderless and unmanaged.

Coupled with issues such as military pay, these soldiers have long been impetuous.

At this moment, everyone finally burst out with anger and got out of control.

At this time, the secret guard hiding in the dark had a panoramic view of this scene.

"Prepare!"

The secret guard captain Wang Heyu raised his hand and shouted lowly.

The next moment, more than 400 secret guard members filled their crossbows with arrows.

Sharp arrows were pointed at everyone on the other side.

"put!"

Wang Heyu's hand immediately dropped.

The next moment, hundreds of arrows rained down on the soldiers of the Black Dragon Legion like a torrential rain.

In this round of attacks, more than half of these people fell immediately.

Before he had time to react, the second wave of attacks from the hidden guards had arrived.

Then came the third wave and the fourth wave.

After several rounds of attacks, all five or six hundred people fell into a pool of blood.

Some members of the secret guard came forward to check and killed those who were still alive.

After confirming that everything was correct, everyone quickly evacuated.

Rely on the conflicts that broke out on the other side to directly destroy this team.

The secret guard achieved such a result on his first mission.

This matter has been reported back to the palace Jiang Qiulu.

"The secret guard immediately returned to the Zhenfu Division and must not be discovered by others." Jiang Qiulu ordered.

The Dark Guard is a mysterious force belonging to the Zhenfu Division.

It is equivalent to the special operations group in the special forces. The existence of this unit cannot be easily made known to others.

At dawn the next day, outside Qinglong City, the sun shines on the earth.

There was just an open space with corpses scattered all over it.

After a while, other teams from the Third Army passed by and were shocked when they saw this scene.

Then he hurriedly sent someone to report it to King Yong.

Kyoto City, inside the Palace of Prince Yong.

King Yong looked at the secret report in his hand and his eyes suddenly widened.

"Check it for me!"

"Look who is so bold!" King Yong yelled immediately.

At this time, everyone on Jiang Qiulu's side had already learned the news.

In this operation, King Yong made a fatal mistake.

Due to the affairs in Kyoto City, King Yong never had time to ask about the Third Army.

Coupled with issues such as military pay, these are the root causes of such a tragic situation.

In this case, high-intensity drill training is also required, which is the direct cause of heavy losses.

"Your Majesty, there is news from the Jin Yiwei lurking in Qinglong City."

"The exercises of the Third Army have been stopped, and a thorough investigation has now begun." Di Yunhao said.

"Hmph, let them check it out."

"If they can find out, he will take my seat." Jiang Qiulu said with a sneer.

King Yong's plan this time was simply shooting himself in the foot.

"After this incident, I think King Yong will be honest for a while."

"As long as we survive this period, everything will be easy to say at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet." Jiang Donglin said.

At this moment, Li Mingzhi came to the imperial study room.

During this time, Li Mingzhi has been helping Jiang Qiulu manage his own industry.

Now that some time has passed, the results achieved are quite obvious.

"Your Majesty, this is the profit of this month's industry, please take a look."

Li Mingzhi said and handed an account book to Jiang Qiulu.

Jiang Qiulu took it and took a look.

Jiang Qiulu was immediately startled at this sight.

During this period, the industry's revenue increased five times compared to last month.

"Eunuch Li, thank you for your hard work."

"During this period, the industry has stabilized and Eunuch Li can return to the palace."

"If this momentum continues, in about a year we will be able to comprehensively upgrade the military's equipment."

Jiang Qiulu put down the account book, with an expression of excitement on his face.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qiulu suddenly thought of a new idea again.

"Eunuch Li, do we have gunpowder in Daxia?" Jiang Qiulu asked.

"Your Majesty, we do have such things as gunpowder."

"Usually they are used to make fireworks or to dig mountains," Li Mingzhi said.

"Eunuch Li, I have a task for you."

"Help me raise some gunpowder, the more the better!" Jiang Qiulu said.

"Brother Emperor, why do you want so much gunpowder?" Jiang Donglin asked in confusion.

Jiang Qiulu smiled at Jiang Donglin's question.

"Because I thought of a very lethal weapon." Jiang Qiulu said.

That's right, the weapon Jiang Qiulu was thinking of was exactly artillery.

Although with current technology and capabilities, there is simply no way to produce artillery that is comparable to modern weapons.

However, even the most traditional artillery is a weapon that far surpasses current civilization.

Using this kind of artillery to defend the Western Regions and Turks can greatly improve combat efficiency and cause effective damage to enemy troops.

Afterwards, more and more thoughts burst out in Jiang Qiulu's mind.
