When those fireworks explode in the sky.
When one or two flowers bloomed on the wall of the pass, it really frightened the Wu army guarding the pass.
Zhenbei General Xia Li stood neatly on the gate tower, listening to the thunder-like sound, looking at the billowing smoke, and the dazzling fire during the explosion, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and murmured One sentence:
"It turns out that this is what His Highness the Prince wants me to guard against!"
A lieutenant beside him also looked at the smoke that had not dissipated in the sky and asked:
"General, what is this?"
"fireworks!"
"……fireworks?"
"Well," Xia Li nodded, "it was invented by the dead regent of Ning State. His Highness the Crown Prince said this thing is extremely powerful!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a firework landed on the wall not far from him.
"Boom...!" There was a loud noise.
"Ah...!" A burst of tragic exclamations sounded.
Xia Li and his lieutenant immediately felt the vibration coming from under their feet. They looked towards that place and couldn't help but gasped with a "hiss..."!
The barrier wall did not collapse, but the soldiers guarding the barrier were all killed by the explosion!
There were mutilated limbs everywhere on the ground, and shocking blood sprayed everywhere on the walls!
The soldier a little further away from the explosion fell to the ground.
They climbed up with difficulty and fled in panic, crying for their father and mother.
"This... General, if all this falls on this wall, wouldn't all our people die?"
Xia Li frowned. He looked at the Ning Army camp at the pass, pondered for a moment, and said:
"General Ma,"
"The general is here!"
"Order all the soldiers to draw their bows and set up arrows. Ning's army must not get even half a step closer to the wall! Ning's army must be blocked from the range of the arrows!"
"The last general takes command!"
General Ma hurried away with his sword in hand, and Xia Li walked towards the place where the fireworks exploded just now.
He looked at it carefully, and then silently returned to the command building on the wall.
"Long Eagle,"
"The general is here!"
"Fei Ge sent a letter to the seven generals of Qicheng Village, ordering them to each lead five thousand cavalry to rush to Wuyaguan as quickly as possible!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Xia Li sat on the chair and picked up the tea cup, but did not drink it.
He was thinking about what method Ning Jun would use to throw those fireworks accurately from a long distance to the wall.
If Ning Jun really did it, how should he deal with it?
Wu Mian!
What would you do?
How many fireworks do you have left?
Just as Xia Li was thinking about this, a beautiful girl in white clothes walked into the command building.
She is a summer flower!
Xia Hua, the younger junior sister of Tianyin Pavilion Seven Swords!
"Second uncle,"
"Ah, didn't Second Uncle tell you to leave here? Why haven't you left yet?"
Xia Hua smiled slightly and sat opposite Xia Li, "I was about to leave, but I didn't expect to see the fireworks. After thinking about it, I decided to stay and watch it again."
"This is war! This is not a small fight in the arena!"
Xia Li looked serious and said:
"You have also seen how powerful the fireworks are. This is no longer a divine object that martial arts can compete with!"
"Second uncle thought, even if he is a great master, if he is blown up by it, I am afraid he will not be able to survive."
"If you are injured by that thing, how will the second uncle face your father and mother?"
"Go back quickly and obey!"
Xia Hua did not leave.
She even made a pot of tea.
"The power of these fireworks is not as powerful as what I saw in Xishan."
Xia Li was startled, "Were they the fireworks that killed Li Chenan?"
Xia Hua's face darkened and she nodded.
"The fireworks completely destroyed Jishan Temple and created a huge hole in the ground!"
"If such powerful fireworks fell on the wall, I estimate that the wall would collapse."
Xia Li frowned again. Does Ning Jun have more powerful fireworks?
"My niece also took a closer look just now. Ning Jun is within a stone's throw of Guanqiang."
"They were at the bottom of the mountain. They wanted to attack upwards and throw the fireworks to such a height... Except for the internal strength of martial arts masters to throw them, there is no way they could have thrown them onto the wall."
Xia Hua took a handful of tea leaves and put it into the teapot, and then said: "In that burst of fireworks just now, many exploded in the air. I think... the explosion of that thing cannot be controlled by humans. The time of detonation is They are very short, so even if they are thrown by a master of martial arts, they will explode before they land on the wall."
"So, my niece feels that it is the night that needs to be guarded against!"
"If Ning Jun sent his masters to sneak under the wall at night and bury the fireworks under the wall to explode..."
Xia Hua put out the fire, poured a cup of tea for Xia Li, raised her eyes and said, "Maybe we can blow a hole in this wall!"
Xia Li was shocked when she heard this.
After thinking about it carefully, I felt that what Xia Hua said was very possible.
He didn't have time to drink tea, so he suddenly stood up and said, "Herald the order!"
"The general is here!"
"Quickly summon eight generals to come to the command post. I, the general, have important matters to discuss!"
…
…
Wuyaguan is closed.
The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air, but no fireworks exploded again.
So the smell gradually went away with the wind and gradually faded.
General Wu Mian looked at the high pass with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed and his expression extremely serious.
On his right is Yan Jinong and on his left is Yan Jidao.
Behind him... is Yan Zifu!
There is no third prince Ning Zhiyuan here.
No one knows where Yan Jidao sent him.
"It seems that this attack method is too ineffective."
Wu Mian pointed to the towering Guan Wall in the distance and added: "A total of thirty fireworks were thrown, but only three landed on the Guan Wall."
"The rest exploded in the air."
"I estimate that in order to land all the fireworks on the wall, the thrower would have to climb at least a hundred feet up..."
"But Xia Li will definitely attack with arrows. Without the cover of the army, even a master of martial arts can't defend himself against the arrows flying all over the sky."
Yan Jinong thought for a while and then asked: "General, can you lengthen the fuse of the fireworks?"
Wu Mian pondered for a moment and shook his head: "After all, most of the money cannot be thrown away."
Yan Jidao said: "What if I go to protect the throwing hand? How about that?"
Wu Mian shook his head again: "The enemy is waiting for work. He keeps attacking with arrows one after another. You will eventually run out of strength."
"What should we do?"
Wu Mian frowned, "Wait!"
"What are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for the dark and windy night of the moon!"
Wu Mian turned around and said, "Let's go back to the commander's tent. If a dark and windy night comes, beat the drums and shout on the east side of the wall to feign an attack!"
"Gather all those who know martial arts on the west side of Guanqiang."
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Yan. You took these people and fireworks and used the cover of night to get under the wall."
"Bury fireworks under the wall."
"As long as a ten-foot-long section is blown up, we can launch a surprise attack!"
"Zifu!"
"The general is here!"
Wu Mian turned back and looked at Yan Zifu.
"You have 20,000 soldiers ambushing the western section of the wall. Once the fireworks explode under the wall..."
"You and your 20,000 soldiers must rush over as soon as possible!"
Yan Zifu nodded firmly: "General, take your orders!"
