The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun frowned and said, "Everyone, there is no need to be so angry. Xiao Jian is guarding the border. Unless something unexpected happens, there will be no big problem."

"Let's first formulate a plan to attack Xiliang."

"There's only half a month left."

The Minister of War, Zhao Heng, cupped his hands and said, "Since the surprise attack failed, I suggest that we split the troops into two groups and attack Xiliang."

"But dispersing our forces may not be a good thing!"

"The situation on the grassland is too complicated. What if a third party gets involved?"

"..."

In the imperial study, there were different opinions and endless arguments.

Qin Yun knew this was the situation, so he simply let them fight it out first. It was no problem for the cabinet meeting to last four or five days.

After all, the battle with Xiliang is of great importance.

If they lose, Xiliang can indeed counterattack the Central Plains!

The lights flickered.

The debate on military and national affairs went on endlessly with no conclusion reached. Xiao Yuxiang had come personally to deliver tea three times.

A bunch of old men, angry, sad, and in trouble!

Qin Yun stood still as a mountain, watching them argue with a smile.

I know these cabinet ministers too well. Any opinions they put forward at the beginning basically fail to pass. Only after a long debate will there be any results.

Suddenly, in the quiet night, a loud noise came out of nowhere!

It was as if a dragon was roaring and the sky was howling.

Immediately afterwards, a ball of blazing flames and green smoke rose in the distant sky, almost cutting through the sky, which was extremely terrifying.

In the imperial study, the ministers' sleepiness was instantly blasted away.

"what happened?"

"what sound?"

While everyone was in panic, Qin Yun had already stood up, rushed out of the imperial study, stood on the commanding heights, and looked into the distance.

His expression was extremely focused, as if he was trying to peek into the distance.

I saw that after the explosion in the distance, there was no movement, but there was a fire.

Qin Yun yelled: "Where is that direction?"

The ministers followed him out, their expressions filled with confusion and surprise.

"Your Majesty, that's the direction of the left camp!"

"Why did it explode there? Could it be related to sesame oil?" Gu Chuntang and a few other people who knew the situation spoke up.

"Hahahaha!"

Qin Yun laughed loudly, the night wind blew his black hair, and he laughed very wantonly.

"It's good to explode, it's good to explode!"

"This just goes to show how powerful sesame oil is. If it's made into a semi-thermal weapon, it's simply invincible!"

He slammed his hands on the railing, looking very excited.

The cabinet ministers behind him were confused and greeted with greetings.

Your Majesty, what are you talking about?

What are semi-thermal weapons?

The next second, while everyone was still confused, Qin Yun started to rush outside.

"Come on, come on!"

"Prepare the horses. I want to go and see for myself."

The ministers were stunned.

"Your Majesty, it's late and dangerous!"

"Isn't the cabinet meeting going to start?"

"Please slow down..."

"Hurry, hurry, the Imperial Guards, follow up and protect the Emperor!!"

The scene became chaotic, Chang Hong quickly led the imperial guards to follow, and the serious cabinet meeting was disbanded.

A group of old men couldn't sleep all night because of the loud noise.

More than an hour later.

Qin Yun rode his horse quickly to the Zuo Daying camp outside the city. There were very few troops here, and most of them were taken to the front line by Xiao Jian.

But because of the production of sesame oil, this place has become a "forbidden area"!

The defense is comparable to that of a palace!

When Qin Yun came here, his expression changed completely, from excitement at the beginning, to freezing point!

Countless soldiers were carried away on stretchers, screaming and groaning.

Part of the base was still burning, the scene was in a mess, and many large tents were blown to pieces.

A smell of burnt coal and blood filled the air, becoming even more pungent as the mountain wind blew.

At that moment, Qin Yun was no longer happy. How could this Jinzhu have caused such a huge loss of life? !

He suppressed his anger, thinking that perhaps it was a normal phenomenon for sesame oil to explode.

In the front, the general stationed here is the newly transferred Iron Tower, a warrior of the Zazahar tribe.

He ran over quickly with Jinzhu, whose face was covered with wounds and bandages.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!!"

"It's up to you, it's up to you!" Jinzhu burst into tears, feeling extremely aggrieved, and fell to her knees with a thud.

He raised his hands in worship.

But this action made everyone frown.

One finger on each of Jinzhu's hands was broken, and it was very obvious, with blood stains on it.

A closer look revealed that there was still black smoke on his body that had not been wiped off, his head was wrapped in bandages, and had countless scratches, as if he had been beaten up by a crowd of people.

Qin Yun reached out and helped him up, frowning and saying, "Speak!"

"what happened!"

"I'll make the decision for you!"

Jinzhu trembled and pointed at the ruins behind him and said, "The furnace exploded, the furnace exploded."

"Your Majesty, the sesame oil that thousands of people have been working so hard to refine here exploded in the last stage."

"At least dozens of the Larvae died."

"Also, many of the imperial guards died!"

He was so agitated that he could hardly speak clearly.

Qin Yun had a grim expression. Developing such dangerous items would inevitably involve sacrifices. He had been mentally prepared long before the order was given.

"I won't blame you. All the dead will be awarded pensions according to the highest pension standards." Qin Yun said in a deep voice.

"No, that's not it, Your Majesty!" Jinzhu looked embarrassed, as if he had some hidden secret but didn't dare to say it.

"What's going on?" Qin Yun asked suspiciously.

At this time, the iron tower nearby reported the truth with a sound like thunder.

"Your Majesty, he is afraid to speak, but I am not afraid to speak!"

"The reason for the explosion was that the materials were defective. Someone used inferior materials as good ones, which caused the steamer to crack, and the huge amount of semi-finished sesame oil came into direct contact with the fire."

"With a loud bang, countless people were killed or injured!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole place fell silent.

It was like a moment of silence before a volcano erupted.

Then, Qin Yun's eyes became murderous and he roared.

"What did you say!!"

Everyone around was trembling with fear!

They all knelt down in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down."

"Calm down, what anger do you want to calm down?"

"If I can't get your message across, I'll repeat it three times!"

"There is actually someone who dares to cheat me and enrich himself. He even dares to forge the national treasure. Does he not want to live?!"

Qin Yun rushed into the ruins, his hair standing on end with rage, and his cheeks flushed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Countless trusted aides followed behind him in a solemn manner.

On both sides were the troops stationed at the sesame oil base, all of them looked panicked.

"Where's the stuff!"

"Let me see where it is!"

Tieta quickly took out a large piece of black iron sheet.

"Your Majesty, these are the fragments of the great steaming cauldron. The others are nowhere to be found."

Qin Yun took a look, then touched it with his hand, and clearly felt that the thickness of the steamer was not enough, and the iron sheet was uneven and had countless cracks!

His face turned livid in an instant.

boom!

He slammed the iron sheet to the ground, his black hair dancing wildly as he roared.

“Check, check!!”

"Check for me where this batch of ironware was transported from. I will skin the person who committed the dereliction of duty!"

"Only then can I get rid of the hatred in my heart!"

Hearing this, the soldiers' eyes turned red. Some people had just died, but they did not die on the battlefield. They died here. It was indeed a tragedy.

Seeing this scene, Qin Yun felt even worse.

Turning back, he yelled, “I told you to check, don’t you understand?!”
