The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe

This battle not only stunned the barbarians, but also shocked them.

Similarly, the people of Qinghe County were dumbfounded!

In this era where the Great Qi government and military are completely indifferent, the common people can only place their fate in the hands of God and pray that the barbarians will not come...

family! Who knows?

There were actually bandits in Qinghe County, and the common people in Qinghe County didn't even know about it. The most amazing thing was that they could actually fight the barbarians back and forth.

Hearing the loud noises, like thunder, the people of Qinghe County huddled in their homes and dared not go out.

After a while, some brave ones finally couldn't resist their curiosity and secretly went around the mountain path to take a look. They ran back the same day and introduced it to everyone with great enthusiasm.

It is said that the heroes of Liangshan in this mountain are actually the thirty-six constellations and seventy-two evil stars from heaven! A total of 108 generals!

What good can the barbarians do against them? These are all gods!

He saw with his own eyes these Liangshan heroes calling the wind and rain, summoning thunder from the sky, and directly striking the barbarians to death!

At first, the people didn't believe it, thinking it was too exaggerated and boastful.

but……

Day and night, night and day, I hear the loud sound of "boom boom boom", what else could it be but thunder?

After three days, the sounds stopped and the barbarians retreated.

The brave people invited each other and ran to the foot of Liangshan Mountain to see it. What a thing! Just one look at it stunned everyone.

The foot of the mountain was covered with the corpses of barbarians. The barbarians who were invincible and could even stop a child from crying were defeated! They retreated!

This was beyond the people's expectations. From then on, the name of the Liangshan heroes spread from Qinghe County to the whole Da Qi.

……

"What? Heroes of Liangshan!"

The Empress, who had been cheated out of nothing because of her trust in Zuo Santong, and whose ancestral tomb had been burned, was in a bad mood all day. But suddenly, Eunuch Gao told her about the Liangshan heroes defeating the barbarians, intending to cheer her up.

but……

The empress was even more dissatisfied.

"Nonsense! My army couldn't defeat the barbarians, how can a bunch of bandits defeat them?"

If the news was not spread by the close companion, if it was spread by someone else, the empress would have ordered people to drag him out and chop him into pieces.

This is too outrageous!

The bandits' combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the official army of Da Qi. Isn't this a slap in the face of her as the emperor?

Eunuch Gao coughed, and then whispered a reminder: "Everyone, it's still possible!"

"Ok?"

The empress was stunned. What was going on? Was this eunuch trying to contradict her?

Until Eunuch Gao added, "The bandits are in Qinghe County, and our food and money have been robbed three times! I think it is very likely that the same group of people did it all."

Ah this...

The empress was dumbfounded! This time, she was going to get slapped in the face!

If these Liangshan heroes were really the bandits who hijacked her food and money, their combat effectiveness must be stronger than that of the government army!

Otherwise, how could it be possible to succeed in three robberies?

"Could it be that... these bandits really defeated the barbarian army?"

The Empress walked back and forth with her hands behind her back, thinking over and over again...

She directly called the young eunuch "Zhao Xinzhi" and asked him to go to Qinghe County to find out what was going on! Anyway, this young eunuch had been to Qinghe County several times and was familiar with the route.

And on the other side...

The Sixth Prince Bochijin heard that his "Tujin Nayan" disobeyed orders and directly evacuated Liangshan, leaving behind seven or eight hundred corpses.

He was furious and immediately ordered the arrest of the man and prepared to execute him!

As a result, Tujin Nayan cried and shouted that he was wronged, "Your Majesty! It was not me who disobeyed the military order, but my brothers who disobeyed the military order! No matter what means I use, they are unwilling to continue attacking Liangshan. If I continue to force them away, I am afraid it will cause a mutiny!"

This one sentence shocked Bochijin and all the generals.

The barbarian men have always been brave and fearless of danger. What kind of war could force them to mutiny rather than stop attacking?

Seeing that Tujin Nayan didn't seem to be lying, Bochijin immediately asked him to stand up and speak. He asked him to describe in detail how the battle was fought. Why did the soldiers threaten to mutiny and would rather die than charge forward?

Tu Jin Na Yan Hui said, "These bandits are well-trained! Not only do they rely on the geographical advantage of Liangshan, but the most terrifying thing is that they have sticks that can spit fire! The power of those things is extremely terrifying. Even if you are wearing iron armor, you will die instantly if you are hit by them. Moreover, the wounds they cause are not like those caused by knives or axes, but only holes as thick as a little finger."

At this point, he seemed to have thought of something terrifying. He swallowed and said, "They also have a large flamethrower. The iron balls it sprays out will smash anyone directly into a pulp! Even indirect hits will rip off limbs. The most outrageous thing is its range: it's an astonishing six thousand feet!"

hiss~

When they heard the distance of six thousand feet, the whole tent was filled with gasps of shock.

What is the concept of six thousand feet?

There’s an idiom called “shooting an arrow through a willow leaf at a hundred paces.” This means that even the best marksman could shoot an arrow a hundred feet high, which is already an exaggeration.

Now the enemy's weapons can hit six thousand feet. What can you use to fight? Are you going to kowtow to them?

So, Tujin Nayan's command was correct. If they really implemented the plan of the Sixth Prince, they wouldn't be able to defeat the enemy, but a mutiny was certain.

only……

In the entire barracks, all the generals were a little bit unconvinced. Did Da Qi really have a "stick that could spit fire"? Did it really have a weapon with such a long range?

Immediately, the Sixth Prince ordered people to capture Qi prisoners and interrogate them one by one to find out whether Da Qi had such weapons.

But the Qi people were all confused. They had never heard of the government army having such a thing. If it really had such a powerful thing, how could they not be defeated by the barbarians?

This made Tujin Nayan anxious. He picked up his knife and was about to chop these lying bastards. He had so many subordinates attacking the mountain together, and he saw it with his own eyes. How could they not have such weapons?

Just as the enraged barbarian leader was about to kill someone, a Qi man among the captives quickly replied, "From what the general said, that thing can probably be determined to be a firecracker!"

Ok?

Prince Lao Liu immediately stopped Tu Jin Na Yan and ordered people to bring out the person who had spoken and asked him what he had just said.

The Qi captive knelt and kowtowed, saying his name was Zhang Youxi and that his family ran a firecracker workshop! Tu Jinnayan said the other party lit the fuse with a torch, producing a crackling sound followed by a loud bang, much like the lighting of a firecracker.

Although he didn't know what a fire-breathing stick was?

But... the structure of this thing is very similar to a sky rocket!

However, since the invention of firecrackers, no one has thought of making them into weapons.

In one sentence, Zhang Youxi directly revealed Li Jize's secret.
