Tianquan County is a small border town of Zheng State. The county is not big. An Eight Immortals table and a few chairs can almost fill up the small space in the county government lobby.
As soon as Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran walked in, a girl sitting at the table flew over like a butterfly and hugged Su Xingran without letting go.
''Sister, I miss you so much. When you went from Xinjing to Chen State to get married a few days ago, our family was still together. Now Xinjing has fallen into the hands of the Chu people, and the queen mother and second sister are blocked in Xinjing with their lives unknown! "Su Xingyu lay on Su Xingran's shoulder and sobbed.
Su Xingran patted her little sister's back gently with her hands, her eyes filled with tears. After Su Chengxuan and Prince Su Muyun invited Chen Xiaomu to sit down at the table, Su Xingran pulled Su Xingyu, who was still sobbing, to Chen Xiaomu's side.
"Sister, come and meet, this is Chen Xiaomu, the sixth prince of the Chen Kingdom, who is now my sister's husband-in-law." Su Xingyu sobbed and took away the hands that were wiping tears from her face, and bent down to salute Chen Xiaomu.
When he saw Su Xingyu's entire face, Chen Xiaomu was stunned. Good guy, this little lolita is so beautiful. If Su Xingran's beauty is dignified and cool, then Su Xingyu is a natural beauty, let men see it. At first glance, I felt like I wanted to get close.
The Crown Prince of Zheng, Su Muyun, is also very handsome. He is tall and has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. However, the forced smile on his face cannot hide the sadness between his eyebrows, and he will frown inadvertently!
Su Xingran took Chen Xiaomu to Su Muyun and prepared to greet his brother. Su Chengxuan waved his hand and said, "Xingran, all the etiquette in the palace has been abolished here. Now we only have Tianquan County, and there are no people." There are only 40,000 people, and if you practice the etiquette in the palace, it will make people laugh at you. You and the Sixth Prince should sit down first. I have something to say to you.
Hearing this, Su Xingran had to give up temporarily and took Chen Xiaomu to sit down next to Su Chengxuan. There were only a few ordinary dishes of chicken, duck, fish and meat on the Eight Immortals table.
Su Chengxuan picked up a glass of wine and was silent for a long time before speaking: "Now our Zheng Kingdom is gone. Even if we were lucky enough to defeat Guo Huai's 200,000 troops last night, we will have to face Han Fei's two men again." There are more than 100,000 troops, and even the Chu State will send more troops to assist Han Fei. This time we may not have a chance to win by chance. Therefore, before Han Fei's troops form an siege on Tianquan County, I want to have you captured. Send them all out of Tianquan County, stay anonymous, and never show your face again! As for myself, let me walk into history with the country of Zheng!"
"But my father, my husband invented a kind of object called a dynamite bag. One bag can kill many people. Guo Huai was killed by a dynamite bag like ours. Moreover, my husband also has a magical power called Buddha's Light. Chu Meng Da, the most powerful general in the country, was killed by my husband using this magical skill, so we are not afraid of fighting Han Fei to the death!"
Su Chengxuan nodded, "I heard Ximensong and Lu Yi mention these two special skills of the Sixth Prince, but Han Fei still has 20,000 heavy armored cavalry that he has not used. The explosive packs of the Sixth Prince can be used against them. Han Fei's heavy armored cavalry? Besides, Han Fei will definitely be more cautious this time. We won't have another chance to approach them to drop such explosives. Besides, we only have this little place right now. Where can we go to find a lot of these explosives? Ingredients for the package?”
"Your Majesty," Chen Xiaomu bowed his hands to Su Chengxuan, "Actually, I already have a way to kill Han Fei's more than 200,000 troops. I don't need a lot of explosives at all!"
"Oh, tell me about it?" Su Chengxuan was suddenly ecstatic, and the eyes of several people at the table instantly moved to Chen Xiaomu.
Chen Xiaomu looked around. Su Chengxuan immediately understood what he meant and waved all the indoor guards to exit outside.
Chen Xiaomu dipped his chopsticks into the wine glass and wrote the word "water" on the table. Su Chengxuan looked at it for a long time and was puzzled. When the word "water" disappeared on the table, Chen Xiaomu saw that Su Chengxuan was still thinking hard about it. Dip in wine and write down three words, Daling River. "
Su Chengxuan raised his head and looked at Chen Xiaomu doubtfully, what do you mean? Isn’t this Daling River just water?
Chen Xiaomu secretly sighed and thought, with such a stupid emperor, no wonder Zheng Guo got so messed up that the country is about to be destroyed. Su Muyun, Su Xingran and Su Xingyu watched Weng and son-in-law playing riddles on the table, and their curiosity aroused. They gathered around together, but when they saw the three words Dalinghe written by Chen Xiaomu on the table, they all looked at each other and didn't know why.
In order to finish dinner early and go back to the inn to sleep with Su Xingran, Chen Xiaomu had to write the last two words, dynamite!
Just when Su Chengxuan and others were still confused, Su Xingran's eyes suddenly lit up. Regardless of the fact that his father, brother and sister were all present, he held Chen Xiaomu's head and kissed him hard on the face. Chen Xiaomu secretly laughed, "My daughter-in-law has finally been brought to the emotional interface between men and women a thousand years later!
Seeing that his daughter was so open-minded, Su Chengxuan's face instantly turned cold. Su Muyun looked embarrassed but pretended to turn a blind eye. Su Xingyu covered her mouth and snickered, as if she was curious about the baby!
Seeing her father Su Chengxuan's face as cold as ice, Su Xingran was so excited that she didn't even realize that she had lost her temper and her father Su Chengxuan's anger. She stretched out her hands to hold Su Chengxuan's arms and said, "Father, , According to my husband’s plan, Zheng Guo will definitely recover and regain its capital Xinjing within a month.
Su Chengxuan turned around and looked at Su Xingran with a shocked look on his face. Yes, his daughter's face turned red from excitement.
"Sister, please tell me how we can restore our country?" Su Xingyu became excited upon hearing this.
"'Yes, sister, please tell us the beauty of the Sixth Prince's plan, so that we can be happy too!" Prince Su Muyun, who has even dreamed of reviving the country these days, is even more impatient.
In fact, Su Chengxuan, Su Muyun, and Su Xingyu are not stupid. On the contrary, they are all smarter in terms of knowledge and business. However, they have not experienced the power of this explosive pack. You just tell them directly now and wait for Han Fei's army. When they surrounded Tianquan County, they used explosives to blow up the ice wall above the Daling River. They didn't even believe it!
Since the ice surface in the lower reaches of the Daling River has not melted, the river water will definitely rush over the river embankment and drown the Chu army outside Tianquan County. Even if it does not drown them, it will freeze them alive, and the people in Tianquan County and The defenders, because the moat outside the city wall can greatly buffer part of the river water, and there is a city wall blocking it, and if you can take precautions in advance, even if there is a loss, it should probably be within the tolerable range!
When dealing with Guo Huai a few days ago, Chen Xiaomu prepared to use this trick to flood Guo Huai's 200,000-strong army. Later, he thought it would be more appropriate to leave it to Han Fei, so that the effective strength of the Chu army could be eliminated once and for all. This will prevent Zheng from being able to invade Zheng for at least ten years, giving Zheng time to restore its national strength.
Chen Xiaomu pointed around and waved to Su Xingran, stopping her from explaining in detail. After all, this matter was related to Zheng Guo's life and death. He didn't want the sound of this matter to appear in this room where he was unfamiliar with the surrounding environment! Su Chengxuan and others also understood and stopped mentioning this matter!
The reason why Chen Xiaomu hinted at Su Chengxuan tonight was because he had to make Su Chengxuan mentally prepared for this matter. If on the night of the explosion of Daling River, the garrison and people in Tianquan County would be prepared in advance. Evacuating personnel and supplies to the city wall can reduce a lot of losses and casualties.
Lu Jun, the presidential leader of the Royal Forest Army who desperately protected Su Chengxuan and others from Beijing and evacuated to Tianquan, is Su Xingran's uncle. He is now responsible for the defense of Tianquan County, but these days, because he was unable to bring his sister Queen Lu with him I felt guilty for fighting my way out of Xinjing! Except for defense matters, he usually thanked guests behind closed doors. He didn't even participate in the operation to defeat the Chu camp last night. It wasn't until Su Chengxuan held a celebration party that he attended symbolically!
However, after learning that his confidant Ximensong had his hand cut off, he still rushed to the barracks to visit Ximensong. When he learned from Ximensong what happened to his niece Su Xingran in the Chen Kingdom, and the sixth prince of the Chen Kingdom When Chen Xiaomu helped him and Zhong Xin connect, invented explosives to bomb the Chu camp, and used the magical power of Buddha's light to kill his number one enemy Meng Da, Lu Jun was shocked beyond words. When he came out, he went straight to the inn where Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran were staying without even returning to their residence.
By the time Su Xingran and Chen Xiaomu accompanied Su Chengxuan back to the inn after dinner, Lu Jun had been waiting for them in the inn for nearly an hour.
As soon as Su Xingran entered the guest room of the inn, he saw a kind-hearted old man in his fifties standing at the door, looking at him with mixed feelings.
"Uncle" Su Xingran shouted and threw herself into the old man's arms. Lu Jun hugged Su Xingran, tears in his eyes falling like broken pearls.
Chen Xiaomu stood behind Su Xingran, silently watching the uncle and nephew meet for the first time after separation.
After a while, Lu Jun wiped his tears with his sleeves, looked at Chen Xiaomu who was standing behind Su Xingran, and said with a smile: "This little girl doesn't even introduce her husband to my uncle when she has a husband!
Chen Xiaomu heard the sound and quickly stepped forward to salute and called "uncle". Lu Jun quickly stretched out his hands to help Chen Xiaomu up, "Your Highness, the Sixth Prince, you can't do it! You're putting me to shame!"
Chen Xiaomu smiled and said, "Although Xingran and I did not hold a wedding ceremony, we have already exchanged marriage certificates under the abbot of my father, so isn't it right for me to call you uncle?"
"Uncle, just leave it to him!" Su Xingran, who was standing aside, said shyly.
"Haha, then I'd rather be respectful than obey your orders!" Lu Jun reached out and patted Chen Xiaomu's shoulder gently.
The two let Lu Jun into the small living room outside the guest room. The inn where Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran lived had two buildings, both two and a half stories high, with wooden structures. The two buildings faced each other, with a distance of forty or fifty meters between them. , is now requisitioned by the government and filled with civil and military officials who escaped from the capital Xinjing.
Chen Xiaomu and Su Xingran live on the top floor, which has only a few guest rooms, two bathrooms, and a small independent reception room. Currently, only Chen Xiaomu and his wife, Lu Yi, Li Gui, Wang Wu and other princess escorts live there.
After meeting Lu Jun, Chen Xiaomu decided to change his mind. If he wanted to gain the trust of Lu Jun, the man who held military power, he had to reveal his next battle plan so that he could gain part of the Tianquan defenders' trust. The command power cannot be achieved solely by the number of people in Su Xingran's princess escort team.
