Ancient paintings connect the present, I hoard goods to support the villain Wang

After discussing this, Xiao Jingyan and others told Wanyan Longmu the part of their plan that required the Qian Shuo Army.

When Wanyan Longmu heard this, he felt that he only needed to fight against 130,000 Zhongjue soldiers, and the 10,000 soldiers of the Xiao family army could come with advanced weapons to help him, so he felt that he would win for sure!

While the coalition forces of the three kingdoms showed no signs of attacking the city, Xiao Jingyan asked everyone to go to the Dark Light Canyon to set up traps and find ambush positions.

Gu Yehe was really fooled by Xiao Jingyan.

Recently, the people in the city have been starving and freezing, and it is the Xiao family army that has been distributing food and charcoal everywhere...

He also knew that if the Xiao family army was defeated, not to mention what would happen to the entire Dayong, their Lingyao City would definitely not have a good life.

Although both his parents have passed away, he still has the villagers who have watched him grow up since he was a child, and he cannot ignore everyone's lives.

Now that the prince needs him, and he, a weak scholar, can help defend his country, he will definitely not refuse!

"The common people have met the prince."

Gu Yehe was still wearing the thin old robe he wore that day. In the snow and ice, his nose, ears, and fingers were already red from the cold.

Even his eyelashes were frosted.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Jingyan hurriedly handed him his hot water bottle and ordered his men to get him a suitable down jacket.

Xiao Jingyan had been holding the hot water bottle for a while, but the temperature was not that hot anymore.

However, this temperature was just right for Gu Yehe, whose hands were already numb from the cold.

It can give him a chance to buffer.

"You sit here and warm yourself by the fire. Once your body temperature has returned to normal, we can talk about other things."

Xiao Jingyan said this, pointing to the recliner next to the fireplace.

Gu Yehe followed his gaze and saw the crackling charcoal fire in the fireplace, looking warm and bright.

Although the lounge chair is made of rattan, it has a soft and cute cushion on it, and you can tell at a glance that it will be very comfortable to lie on it.

He knew that this was where Xiao Jingyan usually sat, so he naturally didn't dare sit there, so he had to sit cross-legged on the ground.

Seeing this, Xiao Jingyan specifically ordered:

"The ground is cold, sit on a chair."

Gu Yehe was flattered and did not dare to overstep the line. He quickly bowed and thanked the emperor:

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I am a humble person, how dare I sit in your seat?"

After hearing what he said, Xiao Jingyan warned dissatisfiedly:

"Since you have joined my Xiao Family Army, you will be my man from now on. Don't underestimate yourself!"

"In my Xiao Family Army, everyone is equal!"

"If the king tells you to sit, then sit!"

He almost forced Gu Yehe to sit on the recliner step by step.

Gu Yehe looked at the domineering and powerful Xiao Jingyan in front of him, swallowed timidly, and dared not speak.

But my opinion of him has changed.

Suddenly I felt that this prince was really extraordinary!

The two men were only two fists apart at this time, one above and one below.

Just at this moment, the soldier who came with the down jacket for Gu Yehe walked in. Seeing the posture of their prince and Gu Xiucai, he instantly had a lot of fantasies.

"Damn you for disturbing your Highness! Here are the clothes you requested."

The soldier put his clothes on the cabinet at the door and fled quickly.

Xiao Jingyan:???

What am I doing? He says he's disturbing me?

He picked up the clothes, threw them to Gu Yehe, and gave him a blueprint of an improved catapult he designed.

Previously, Gu Yehe had shown his talent for assembling solar panels just by looking at blueprints.

He had never seen anything as advanced as solar panels.

Now facing the catapult, it should be even easier for him.

"See, can you do it?"

Xiao Jingyan asked with a raised eyebrow.

Gu Yehe hurriedly studied the drawings carefully, and asked after just one glance:

"Your Highness, do you want to convert the catapult into a device for dropping explosives?"

Xiao Jingyan said happily: "Good eyesight!"

However, there was no mention of the word "explosives" anywhere on his drawing.

One can guess it just by looking at his design, but I'm afraid even Zhimo, who always shares the same ideas as him, may not be able to do it.

After a moment, Gu Yehe stood up and bowed:

"Forgive my words."

"Gunpowder and stone have different weights. I think this should be improved."

"However, the prince's design is unique, and everything else is excellent."

He had a strong desire to survive, and was afraid that Xiao Jingyan was the kind of master who could not stand being corrected by others, so he used the strategy of first suppressing and then praising.

Xiao Jingyan took another look at the place he mentioned on the drawing, chuckled, and felt that he had really found a handicraft genius.

"Just do as you say. When will it be completed?"

Gu Yehe knew that he was anxious, and also knew that he had to show some strength.

"I need a few smart people to help me. It will probably take no more than two hours to rebuild one!"

When Xiao Jingyan heard this, he was overjoyed.

He knew that he had found the right person!

"Okay, go get ready. If you need any people or tools, just tell Zhiren."

He has now given the order to wield the sword and fully cooperate with Gu Yehe.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Gu Yehe bowed and went out.

Gu Yehe, wearing a down jacket, looked like a clumsy penguin, and even walked with a limp.

Xiao Jingyan had only seen penguins on his mobile phone, and he couldn't help but smile unkindly.

He really wanted to know if he would look like this when walking in a down jacket.

Three days later.

Xiao Jingyan and others are ready for an ambush in the Youguang Canyon.

But the Three Kingdoms Alliance did not seem to have any intention of starting a war.

I don’t know if it was because he was scared by the previous bomb, but he wanted to retreat.

*

At this time, in the Qianshuo military camp.

In Wanyan Longmu's main camp, he and Xiao Jingyan sat opposite each other.

The people surrounding the two were their most trusted subordinates and lieutenants.

"Brother Xiao, do you mean that we should take the initiative to attack?"

Wanyan Longmu was shocked by what Xiao Jingyan said to him.

"Not bad!"

"It's been three days, and they haven't taken any action, nor have they shown any signs of retreating. Doesn't Prince Wanyan think something is amiss?"

Xiao Jingyan came to Wanyan Longmu today to discuss their proactive attack.

The people from these three countries will attack us sooner or later. Instead of waiting for them and wasting time with them, it is better to take the initiative and seize the initiative.

Moreover, he had discussed this with Zhimo and others and concluded that only if they took the initiative to attack could they break up the coalition forces of the three countries and prevent them from being tied together.

"This battle will have to be fought sooner or later."

"Since they choose to remain silent, we should strike first!"

"You don't want them to be outside your Guazhou City all day, eyeing your Qianshuo covetously, making the people of Qianshuo live in fear all day, right?"

Xiao Jingyan asked back, bringing up the safety of the people of Qianshuo.

Wanyan Longmu was just a little undeveloped in the head, but when it came to caring for the people, he was definitely a benevolent monarch.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to use his expensive treasures to exchange food from Xiao Jingyan for the people of Qianshuo.

"This……"

"The people are the most important. This prince agrees to launch an early attack!"

When it comes to the people, Wanyan Longmu agrees instantly.

In fact, he was very anxious during the three days of waiting.

"it is good."

Xiao Jingyan nodded in confirmation and told him the next battle arrangements.

They set the time after dark, around the hour of Xu.

It was dark during this period. After Xiao Jingyan and his men led the Xiaorong army to the Youguang Canyon, it was the time when the ghost fires in the canyon could be most obviously seen.
