The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

"Madam, please take charge on behalf of the great grandson to stabilize people's hearts."

“We are ready to defend the city.

Martial law was imposed and the city was sealed off. Soldiers and residents were mobilized to quickly repair the city walls, dig trenches, and stockpile supplies.

For a while, people were in panic and rumors were flying everywhere.

There were all kinds of rumors, such as millions of bandits were about to attack the city, Wu Changbo had angered the mountain god, and the mountain god was coming with goblins to punish everyone.

Many people even climbed over the wall secretly at night to escape. The whole city was filled with the sound of a storm, with bitter wind and rain.

"...To defend the city, we must be united and share a common hatred for the enemy."

Soon, Wu Jiaoying learned about these rumors. She returned to her room anxiously and knocked on her desk lightly.

"Father, you are a lucky man, and I think you will be alright."

"But the current situation in Kunming is

I'm afraid that once the bandits arrive, they can easily break into the city with one charge.

We must have a victory to break the morale of the bandits.

"hiss?"

"Bang!" Wu Jiaoying suddenly stood up and slapped the door open.

"Where is my brother-in-law?"

"Take me to him immediately!"

That night.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Amidst billowing smoke and dust, thousands of pea-gunners were sprinting towards Kunming City with all their might.

"hurry up."

“Faster.

"After the war, the city's defenses will be empty..."

"If we don't seize the city now, it will be troublesome when they are ready to defend it later."

Unless necessary, Shu Yichao doesn't want to fight to the death against a fortified city.

After all, he only had one type of medium-armored archer so far. They could inflict heavy damage to the enemy in field battles by relying on their formations, but in sieges...

The loss would be huge.

The Oak God Soldier has now turned into a small sapling and is still waiting for its cooling time. There is no chance of using it to attack the city.

Therefore, the best way is to wipe out the enemy in a field battle and then take the empty city.

So Shu Yichao, who had just won a great victory, selected some pea-gunners who still had more physical strength and rushed towards Kunming City at the fastest speed.

but……

“Da da da!!”

The crisp sound of horseshoes came from the distance.

In the morning mist, a group of ferocious cavalrymen were charging towards the pea-gunners in the billowing smoke and dust.

"What the hell?" Shu Yichao, who was still gathering his troops in the rear, felt a little numb after seeing this scene from the perspective of the Pea Gunners.

"This luck is too bad."

A loose and disorganized team might collapse if attacked by the opponent.

"stop!"

"Come closer!" Shu Yichao then urgently ordered the pea-gunners to stop immediately and then gather into a group.

But the exhausted pea-gunners had all slowed down.

"Kill!" Xia Guoxiang led the cavalry, and after a roundabout turn, like a sharp knife, fiercely cut into the deadly waists of the pea-shaped musketeers.

If they were ordinary soldiers, they would probably have scattered like birds and beasts in the face of such a powerful attack.

But the pea gunners were not afraid at all.

I saw them stacked up together, crowded together, like an indestructible wall, as if they were ready to let you crash into them if you dare.

"Humph."

“It’s just like what Wu Jiaoying said.

Xia Guoxiang looked at the pea-gunners lined up in a large formation and nodded slightly.

“This group of evil bandits really wanted to take advantage of the chaos to steal the city.

"General, they won't disperse." said the personal soldier following Prime Minister Xia.

"If we rush forward like this, I'm afraid

"I know these demon bandits are fierce." Xia Guoxiang picked up a jar from his waist.

"but……."

“They are afraid of fire.

"Bang bang bang!!" After entering the firing range, the pea gunners opened fire.

But Wu Fan's cavalrymen all crouched low on their horses, trying their best to defend against this round of volleys. Some were hit, but more successfully rushed to the front of the gunners.

"Throw them all at me!"

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!!" First, a burst of rockets fell down, and then cans filled with gunpowder, cotton cloth, and fuel were thrown out.

"Bang!" After Wanren Di landed on the ground, a burst of scorching flames immediately burst out. The winding fire snakes spit out vicious tongues and bite every pea-sized gunner who was covered with fuel.

“Chirp, chirp!”

The pea-gunners arranged in dense formations became the best fuel at this moment.

The flames grew with the wind, and huge fireballs shot up into the sky in an instant, turning a large number of pea gunners into fireballs.

Suddenly, the pea-gunners were thrown into chaos. They scattered and tried to avoid the scorching flames. The dense formation collapsed in an instant.

"Hahaha!!"

"Kill!" Xia Guoxiang raised the torch and rushed into the pea shooter formation while shouting.

“Leave no one behind!

"Listen carefully to me, don't leave any one behind!"

Wu Fan's cavalry immediately flooded the loose surprise attack troops like a torrent.

"Meow meow." Shu Yichao glanced at the map.

"It will be difficult to capture Kunming City now.

"Explode the troops."

"Looks like we'll have to drown them with numbers."

Chapter 713-I Want to Use a Trick

Xia Dutong returns triumphantly!

This news seemed to have legs and quickly reached the ears of everyone in Kunming City.

And this is not a false rumor that has been spread.

The victorious soldiers of Wu Fan loaded a large number of burnt black "heads" of the "evil bandits" onto carts and carried several large carts in a row.

Those things are not fake, they are real and visible to the naked eye.

Although Wu Fan's soldiers were also confused about where the bandits' vital points were, some cut the stems and leaves, some cut the roots, and some cut the flower buds.

At the same time, the Wu clan soldiers were showing off their gains and bragging about it.

"bandits-

"A bunch of rubbish!"

"The quantity is a bit too much, but it's completely useless."

"As soon as we rushed, they collapsed."

"I took a knife and cut off their heads. It was easier than cutting crops.

In this way, thanks to Xia Guoxiang's real gains, the panicked people in Kunming City finally calmed down.

It seems that the so-called bandits are just like that.

Kunming City is still very safe.

Soon, all kinds of work were arranged in an orderly manner.

When Prime Minister Xia arrived at the palace, Wu Jiaoying, Madam Wu, and the Crown Prince were already waiting for him.

"Brother-in-law."

"Thank you very much."

"It's all thanks to your wisdom and courage, brother-in-law, that we were able to stabilize people's hearts.

Wu Jiaoying said happily.

"Now Kunming City can be defended."

"No way." Xia Guoxiang said modestly.

"It's all thanks to the Fourth Miss's brilliant plan.

"If the Fourth Miss hadn't guessed the bandits' trick, I wouldn't have had this great victory. She's truly a female Zhuge Liang."

"Madam." After complimenting Wu Jiaoying, he asked Madam Wu respectfully.

"The letter has already been sent."

"The garrisons from all places will arrive in ten days."

"As long as I'm here, Kunming City will be safe."

Xia Guoxiang believed it.

The most dangerous moment has passed.

Next, we have to wait for news from Wu Changbo and reinforcements from various places.

Soon after

"General!"

"Scout report.

"The bandits are coming!!"

The panicked soldier ran into the tent and brought back the news of the vegetative army incoherently.

"It, they, have, have..."

"I know, it's just the bandits attacking."

"Hasn't the scouts been investigating these days?"

“This commander-in-chief is fully aware of the news about the bandits.

"What's there to be alarmed about?" Prime Minister Xia put down the document in his hand, then stood up and walked to the top of the city wall.

Then his jaw nearly dislocated.

Amidst the smoke and dust and the shaking of the earth, the so-called bandits were everywhere in the mountains and plains, endless. At a glance, there were dense swarms of pea-gunners everywhere, like a vast green ocean.

“This amount…”

He murmured

"Two hundred thousand is a real number, right?"

Xia Guoxiang always believed that some of the defeated soldiers who had returned before were talking nonsense. After all, there were too many examples of exaggerating the enemy's fault in order to show that it was not their own fault.
