"Sir, the Minister of Revenue Pei Yan, the Minister of Rites Sun Zhongliang, and the Junior Minister Xu Miao have already arrived at Deshengmen."

Chong Heihu hurried to Xia Yun and reported.

"Ah."

Xia Yun nodded and looked back at the city wall. He also saw the figures of Xu Miao and others.

He hadn't expected that these guys would come along.

"With all the commotion at Desheng Gate, I'm afraid His Majesty has also received the news."

Xiao Yan's gaze was towards the direction of the imperial palace.

The empress controls the secret guards, and if there is any disturbance in the capital, the secret guards will report to the empress immediately.

"Is His Majesty coming too?"

Lei Zhenning was a little surprised. If the empress came to Deshengmen, the liveliness of the scene would probably double.

"It doesn't matter. Even if His Majesty comes here, with the three of us present, we will be able to avoid any accidents."

Xia Yun responded calmly.

At the same time, the moment his voice fell, a continuous and rapid vibration suddenly came from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, the familiar roar of an engine came from the distance again.

"My lord, they are coming!"

Chong Heihu, who was also familiar with the roar of the engine, uttered excited words.

Only Lei Zhenning, Xiao Yan and their soldiers had puzzled expressions on their faces.

They had never heard such noises coming from afar, and they just thought it was something terrible approaching.

However, their doubts did not last long.

After a few short breaths.

The steel torrent that was moving rapidly from afar soon appeared in the sight of everyone at the Deshengmen site!

"Oh my God, what is that?!"

"Is that a horse?"

"Fool, how can that be a horse! That is the chariot under Lord Xia Yun's command!"

"Chariot, what is a chariot?"

"..."

The already noisy Deshengmen Gate reached its peak at this moment. Almost everyone at the scene had shocked expressions on their faces and exclaimed in surprise.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

As the tanks got closer to Deshengmen, the roar of their engines became more intense.

The war horses ridden by Xiao Yan, Lei Zhenning and others became collectively restless, and neighing sounds came from the horses' mouths.

Many soldiers fell off their horses and fell to the ground.

Obviously, these war horses, which had never seen a chariot before, all had stress reactions.

"Hurry up and change the horses for the prince and Lord Lei."

Xia Yun also overlooked this factor, and immediately turned to give instructions to Chong Heihu.

The war horses from Dai County had undergone a lot of training and had long been immune to the noise made by chariots.

"Thank you."

Xiao Yan and Lei Zhenning, who had changed back into Dai County war horses, showed gratitude on their shocked faces.

At this moment they were still in shock.

Those chariots with strange designs completely refreshed their cognition.

Especially the speed of those chariots is far beyond that of horses.

You have to know that even for a Arabian horse, its speed in an hour is only about 40 to 50 kilometers.

But at this moment, the chariots coming from afar were traveling at a speed of at least 60 kilometers per hour.

And judging from the condition of those chariots, they didn't show any signs of fatigue at all!

On top of the Deshengmen city wall.

While the common people were cheering and excited, Xu Miao, Sun Zhongliang and others all had gloomy looks on their faces.

The reason was simple: the baggage train under Xia Yun's command had given them too much shock.

The scene of the marching torrent of steel completely overturned their understanding of war!

At this moment, in their eyes, the chariots looked like roaring beasts.

Any creature that stands in their way will be devoured without mercy!

Finally, dozens of breaths passed.

Hundreds of chariots finally arrived at Deshengmen and stopped on a large plain in front of Deshengmen.

A general wearing a black helmet and black armor quickly got down from the leading chariot.

"I, Xiang Wentian, come to see you, Your Excellency!"

The coming general was none other than Xiang Wentian, a general under Xia Yun, who had rushed all the way from Dai County.

"No need to be polite, just get up."

Xia Yun nodded happily.

It had been several months since he left Dai County and he hadn't seen Xiang Wentian.

The other party has grown a lot during this period of time.

Not only did he manage Dai County in an orderly manner, but the number of chariots also increased significantly.

"Brother Xiang, this is the Ninth Prince of the capital, and this is the new Minister of War Lei Zhenning, Lord Lei."

Chong Heihu introduced Xiang Wentian from the side.

In terms of age, Xiang Wentian is older than Chong Heihu.

"I greet the Ninth Prince and Lord Lei!"

Xiang Wentian immediately clasped his fists towards the two of them.

"No need to be polite to the general."

Xiao Yan and Lei Zhenning responded by clasping their fists, which was rare.

It was because they had not yet recovered from their shock.

"I have been ordered by Your Excellency to dispatch all military supplies from Dai County to the capital. There are a total of 125 tanks, 16 cars, 30,000 automatic rifles, 40,000 single-shot rifles, and 3,650 boxes of the latest grenades developed by the arsenal..."

Immediately afterwards, Xiang Wentian reported to Xia Yun in front of everyone present about all the weapons and equipment brought by the baggage train.

While Xia Yun showed a look of satisfaction, the shock on Xiao Yan and Lei Zhenning's faces became more and more intense.

Although they did not understand most of what Xiang Wentian reported, they had witnessed with their own eyes the terrifying power of the automatic rifles equipped by Xia Yun's troops.

And now Xiang Wentian actually brought a full 30,000 of them! This means that the combat power of Xia Yun's troops will be directly upgraded to a huge level!

"You have done very well. I will ask His Majesty to confer upon you the title of General of the Imperial Cavalry. You will not have to return to Dai County. You can stay in the army and serve under the jurisdiction of Qin Tianye."

Xia Yun nodded again with satisfaction and said.

"The last general takes command!"

Xiang Wentian's voice was full of momentum.

For him, rather than staying in Dai County to take charge of logistics, he naturally wanted to work for Xia Yun.

Over the past few months, he had already been envious of those who worshipped the Black Fox.

At this moment, Xu Wan'er's figure suddenly appeared in front of Deshengmen.

However, there was a hint of haste on Xu Wan'er's face.

"My Lord, His Majesty has arrived!"

When Xu Wan'er appeared in front of Xia Yun and others, she immediately spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the direction of Deshengmen.

"Where is His Majesty?"

Xia Yun raised his eyebrows. The commotion in the capital city finally reached its climax.

"Your Majesty is in the Hongyan Building right now. Your Majesty asked me to pass on a message, hoping that the baggage troops can enter the capital directly to boost the confidence of the people in the capital to fight against the invasion from the northern border!"

Xu Wan'er continued to respond.
