Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Fan Jingtao, kneeling on the ground, was trembling.

His face was pale, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and cold sweat flowed from his temples.

"I have failed the prince! I am willing to die as a token of my sin!"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan said:

"Why did the cavalry of the Northern Shang Kingdom kill 90,000 infantry? How did they do it?"

Fan Jingtao knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice:

"Reporting to Your Majesty! The Northern Shang Kingdom used a huge iron shield transformed from a four-wheeled carriage board."

"When I saw the chariots, horses and shields of the Northern Shang Kingdom, I immediately ordered the First, Second and Third Armies to fire."

"But after the composite crossbow shoots out the iron arrows, the chariots and horse shields in the front row of the Northern Shang cavalry will immediately raise their huge iron shields to block all the arrows! The iron arrows cannot penetrate the chariots and horse shields!"

"When I saw this situation, I ordered the three armies to retreat immediately!"

"When we return to the Northern Border City on horseback, we will wait with the Fourth Army!"

"After waiting for a day and a night, the soldiers of the three armies did not return, so we speculated that the three armies were most likely destroyed."

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan frowned when he heard this.

"Chariot shield! Chariot shield made of pure iron!"

"You didn't see with your own eyes that the 90,000 soldiers were annihilated. It's also possible that the army retreated to Baidi City. The supplies in Baidi City can support them for 15 days."

"Even so, my three armies are still in great danger! Not only did you, Fan Jingtao, make mistakes in command, but you also escaped on horseback quite quickly!"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan's face was extremely ugly.

Looking at Fan Jingtao who was kneeling on the ground.

"I gave you command of the First Command, but you failed to even deploy scouts to detect the enemy formations!"

“If you had detected the Northern Shang cavalry’s formation earlier, and had the chariots and horses lined up before the Northern Shang cavalry, this terrible situation wouldn’t have happened.”

Fan Jingtao, who was kneeling on the ground, said:

"Death penalty for lowly duties!"

"Your Majesty! The military advisor of the Northern Shang Kingdom has obtained tens of thousands of composite crossbows and millions of pure iron crossbow arrows."

"With the help of cavalry and chariot shields, it will be difficult for us Dafeng infantry to win on the front battlefield."

After listening to Fan Jingtao's report.

King Zhenbei said lightly:

"Get up! Stop saying these useless things!"

After listening to Fan Jingtao's report on the military situation, Hongxuan had a complete understanding of the situation on the battlefield.

Fan Jingtao stood up and looked at King Zhenbei and said:

"Your Majesty! What should we do in this situation?"

"I am worried that the military advisors of the Northern Shang Kingdom will certainly create a large number of composite crossbows to equip the entire northern cavalry. If that happens, our Great Feng Kingdom will definitely be in danger of being destroyed. How can we resist it?"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan frowned and said:

"The composite crossbow is powerful, but even if the Northern Shang cavalry is equipped with composite crossbows, it will not be able to become a major force!"

"I will not allow the cavalry of the Northern Shang Kingdom to succeed and threaten my Great Feng Kingdom."

"Qilin Guard! The situation is urgent, please invite Miao Fuzhou over immediately."

Fan Jingtao didn't know why, under such circumstances, Zhenbei King Hongxuan didn't go to the northern border, but went to teach Miao Fuzhou.

Of course, Fan Jingtao is not qualified to question now.

A moment later,

Miao Fuzhou was brought to the Yingbin Mansion by the Qilin Guards.

Inside the hall, Miao Fuzhou felt that Zhenbei King Hongxuan looked extremely solemn. He said respectfully:

"King Zhenbei, why did you summon me here?"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan said to Miao Fuzhou:

"Miao tribe leader! Plant your slavery Gu on this king!"

Miao Fuzhou was shocked after hearing this. He didn't know why King Zhenbei would say this.

"I dare not. Since I came to Dafeng Country, I have never thought of using such strange means on you, the King of Zhenbei."

"I hope King Zhenbei will not test my clan leader's sincerity in following King Zhenbei again!"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan sighed and said:

"I don't want you to plant that poison in me, but I can't do anything about it now!"

"Miao Fuzhou, just plant the poison. You know I have the means to remove it!"

"Now we need you to go to Mangdang Mountain to assist Dafeng's military equipment minister Yang Tao and chemistry minister Xu Yixuan to immediately develop black powder and standard artillery."

Miao Fuzhou didn't understand what Zhenbei King Hongxuan was saying at all?

What black powder? What standard artillery?

Miao Fuzhou knew clearly that Zhenbei King Hongxuan wanted to create a distance-free mental communication between the slave Gu and the mother Gu.

"Then this clan leader will obey the order of the King of Zhenbei and plant the seed Gu in the prince's body."

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan said:

"Don't delay any longer. If you delay any longer, my First Army will be wiped out."

Miao Fuzhou was of course aware that he had a way to remove the poison planted in Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

There was no hesitation at that moment.

Miao Fuzhou sat cross-legged in the hall, silently chanting an obscure spell. A purple sphere appeared in front of him, and the purple, smoke-like sphere floated in front of Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

King Zhenbei did not hesitate and inhaled the purple smoke-like gas directly into his body.

In an instant, his heart twitched violently.

"pain!"

The pain was like a knife stabbing into my heart.

After three breaths, this feeling disappeared, but when he looked at Miao Fuzhou, he felt Miao Fuzhou's incomparable kindness, as if there was no closer relative in the world than Miao Fuzhou.

Not only that, King Zhenbei intuitively felt that he could do everything for Miao Fuzhou, even at the cost of his own life.

Suddenly, a feeling of enslavement and submission permeated Hongxuan's consciousness.

"This is a bad, bad feeling!"

Miao Fuzhou's image in Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan's mind continued to rise, but he could clearly feel that an extremely terrifying force was enveloping him.

It seemed as if it was going to devour his soul and will.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan uttered a low humming sound.

"You! Miao Fuzhou! How dare you!"

Miao Fuzhou hurriedly controlled the power emitted by the slave mother Gu, and at the same time cut off the connection with the Zhenbei Prince Gu.

He just had a slight taste of the feeling of controlling Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

It's an indescribable wonderful taste.

But Miao Fuzhou suddenly felt a strong resistance, so he decisively withdrew his hand.

Because he knew that if he didn't stop, King Zhenbei would take out the silver needles and perform his secret acupuncture technique.

By the time,

No matter what you say, Zhenbei King Hongxuan will not spare your life.

"call!"

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei exhaled a breath of foul air. This feeling of submission to others was something King Hongxuan of Zhenbei never wanted to experience again in his life.

Hong Xuan returned to normal. He looked at Miao Fuzhou and said:

"Now you can act!"

"Yes! King Zhenbei! I will follow your orders!"

Although Zhenbei King Hongxuan saw Miao Fuzhou being respectful to him on the surface, Hongxuan could sense the superiority in Miao Fuzhou's heart.

This is the suppression of the mother Gu over the child Gu.

"Qilin Guard!"

King Hongxuan of Zhenbei summoned the Qilin Guards.

"The humble position is here!"

"Gather one thousand guards and five hundred Qilin guards to protect Miao Fuzhou's safety and escort him to Mangdang Mountain."

"Follow the order!"

Wait until the Qilin Guards send Miao Fuzhou away from the Yingbin Mansion.

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at He Zhili and Wen Jinglan:

"He Zhili, gather the Third Field Army and follow me to the border city of the North!"

"The general will obey the order!"

Zhenbei King Hongxuan returned to his mansion to say goodbye to his three princesses.

Murong Qin said with tears in her eyes:

"Your Majesty! You've only been back for one day, and you're leaving!"

"Qin'er! Don't cry! I'm in the northern border. I'll be back after I destroy the Beishang cavalry!"

Murong Yan's eyes were filled with tears as she handed over a brocade sachet.

"Your Majesty! Take this. Inside the sachet is embroidered the blessing of peace that Yan'er prayed for!"
