Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 328
"Well, that weapon... is shaped like a long chain and has extraordinary power. It is really rare. I have been fighting for many years and have never seen such a weapon. Do you know its origin?" Zhao Pu asked.

The generals below all shook their heads and said they didn't know.

The chief strategist finally said: "I don't know either... But Your Highness, if you think about it carefully, although the weapon is new and strange, it seems..."

"It cannot hurt people directly. What it relies on is that its sound is like thunder and its shape is like lightning."

"Lightning and thunder, the power of heaven and earth, we ordinary people are naturally afraid of."

"But Your Highness, the lightning and thunder caused by the weapon are false images. Apart from scaring people, they cannot directly hurt people's lives."

"Oh?!"

Zhao Pu clapped his hands on the armrests of the seat, stood up, touched his chin, and thought carefully.

Then he nodded: "Yes, that weapon did not directly hurt anyone's life."

"Your Highness, as the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Why not find the soldiers who have experienced that battle and ask them what they saw and heard. After we understand the characteristics of the weapon, it will not be too late to make plans."

The chief counselor suggested.

"Okay, here's the order to summon the soldiers to this formation. I, the prince, will question them one by one." Zhao Pu waved his hand and accepted this suggestion.

Once the order is given, there are soldiers to carry it out.

Soon, the soldiers brought dozens of wounded soldiers. They all experienced the big explosion, the subsequent rout, and the great stampede, and still managed to survive.

After questioning one by one, Zhao Pu and his chief advisers came to a definite conclusion.

Although the weapon was novel and strange, it was very powerful.

However, it really cannot directly hurt people’s lives!

"Your Highness, it seems from this that the weapon sounds like thunder and looks like lightning to bluff people."

The chief counselor bowed, his slightly wretched face full of smiles, with a look of victory.

"Our army can divide and conquer, and overcome the visions one by one. For the vision that sounds like thunder, before our troops go into battle, we can use cloth to block their ears to isolate the thunderous sound."

"As for the vision that looks like lightning, His Highness can have people preach about the power of lightning and thunder every day. Although I have not seen it with my own eyes, I am sure that I will not be afraid of the illusion of nothingness if I hear it every day."

"In this way, when our army faces Jiangzhou's weapons again, we will have nothing to worry about!"

"Okay, pass on the order and do what you say, sir!"

Zhao Pu was overjoyed and immediately adopted all the suggestions from the chief adviser.

The chief counselor's expression changed, and he suggested: "Your Highness, although Jiangzhou City is strong, it cannot withstand the encroachment of our army."

"My subordinates are afraid of Jiangzhou and sent people to ask for help. Why don't your highness order that our army besiege Jiangzhou from all sides?"

"Firstly, it can prevent Jiangzhou from asking for help from outside. Secondly, it can also block the news channels in the city and completely trap the whole city of Jiangzhou!"

Zhao Pu thought for a moment, sighed, and said: "Okay, send the order, the camp will set off in consecutive days, set up camp again four hundred steps outside Jiangzhou City, and besiege Jiangzhou!"

……

Jiangzhou city tower.

"The Yan army has begun to besiege the city. It seems that the fourth prince of Yan Kingdom, Zhao Pu, is going to break our Jiangzhou!" Dong Cheng shook his head and sighed.

"As a result, we will be unable to communicate with the outside world and become an isolated city!" Liu Wencai's face turned gloomy, and the joy of victory just now had completely dissipated.

"From this point of view, the Yan army will not go to war again in a short time. Father-in-law, brother Liu, we need to discuss the matter of defense in the future." Zhu Xiuyuan supported the mottled parapet with both hands.

Dong Cheng and Liu Wencai nodded, and everyone returned to the back hall of the Yamen.

He also called back the two elders Liu and Guan who were stationed at the other three city gates, as well as Yan Dashan and others.

In this discussion, they started from the human, material and spiritual aspects.

Proper arrangements were made for everything.

Because Jiangzhou has not yet reached the point of "running out of ammunition and food", although it is besieged by the Yan army, everyone is still not very panicked.

……

After the discussion, Dong Cheng continued to deal with the internal affairs of the city, while Zhu Xiuyuan and others returned to the city wall and inspected all sides.A whole afternoon passed, but the Yan army still did not attack.

It seems that the next siege of the city will break out at some point, and the Jiangzhou defenders are always ready.

If the Yan army does not attack the city, Zhu Xiuyuan will have nothing to lose.

He went back and forth between "Bronze Works" and "Divine Thunder Works"...

In this way, the afternoon passed like this.

At night, from the time the lights were turned on to midnight, the Yan army was still besieged and showed no movement.

Zhu Xiuyuan personally went up to the tower, looked over the Yan army's situation, and after instructing the defenders on the wall to keep a good watch, he went down to the tower and prepared to go back to his room to sleep.

Tonight, Zhu Xiuyuan still decided to sleep outside, which meant that "if the Yan army does not retreat, he will not return to the mansion to rest."

However, when Zhu Xiuyuan came down from the tower and came to the small courtyard outside the room, his eyes were dazzled and he couldn't help but rub his eyes.

Zhu Xiuyuan saw Dong Shuzhen again!

There are also two little maids, Xia Wu and Qiu Wen.

On the other side, Dong Shuyu, Chun Xue, and Dong Mei were also there.

They all looked at Zhu Xiuyuan with a smile, as if "surprised or surprised".

"Madam, Shuyu, are you here again?!" Zhu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment and then accepted the reality.

……

In Zhu Xiuyuan's room, the lights were out.

Dong Shuzhen lay on her back on the inside of the couch with her eyes wide open.

She gently stroked her belly with one hand, and her face with a little baby fat was full of smiles.

The corners of his mouth raised, and they never dissipated for a long time.

Listening to her husband's long breathing as he slept soundly, Dong Shuzhen's heart beat wildly like a deer's.

After a long time, Dong Shuzhen still didn't feel sleepy at all, and her head was clear.

"After a whole night last night, I should be...pregnant with a baby."

A picture emerged in Dong Shuzhen's mind, which was the picture of Xia Wu congratulating her. Since Xia Wu thought it was a success, it should be a real success.

"But my husband said on the tower today that we would have many, many children together. The one we had yesterday would definitely not be enough..."

Dong Shuzhen was thinking in her mind and could not help but turn her head slightly and look at her husband through the faint light coming from outside the house.

Although only the outline of the man's face can be seen, the forehead, eyes, nose, mouth, chin, etc. can all be distinguished one by one.

Listening to her husband's long breathing as she fell into a deep sleep, Dong Shuzhen's heartbeat gradually accelerated.

Finally, she moved.

Move over slowly and lie on your side.

One hand stretched out and rested on the husband's chest, one leg stretched out and rested on the husband's leg...

Twisting slightly again, she put her head and face close to her husband's shoulder, and began to fall into a deep sleep with expectations and imaginations for a beautiful future in her heart.

……

The next day.

It was also the third day since the Yan army attacked the city.

The Yan army did not move all day, but only besieged the city of Jiangzhou.

There seems to be no rush.
