Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 821
Hearing Wu Xiong's words, even Zhou Long, who was used to big scenes, couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster.

In the past three years, as General Tiance who commanded the entire army of the Qian Kingdom, Zhao Kang had only been to the military camp once.

Forming what Wu Xiong calls the Flying Tiger Army, he was once the well-deserved ace in the artillery army of Shi Qianguo's army. He could hit wherever he went with his cannon, sweeping through Zhou Qi without any defeat.

But since Zhao Kang established the Flying Tiger Army, the Artillery Army has been reduced to the second-ranked army.

In these years of military exercises, they have achieved a terrifying record of 43 victories without any injuries.

No matter it is Qianguo or Jingguo, there is no one who can resist the Feihu Army.

If you can't even fight, then how can you fight?
How fucking fun would it be to pull the Flying Tiger Army over and throw bombs on the enemy's heads?
Especially now, the Institute of Steam is studying how to load power devices on hot air balloons so that they can fly freely in the air.

And there is already a research direction. If this is successful, it will be even more exciting to carry out precision strikes on enemy command posts in the future.

Thinking about it, Zhou Long also became excited: "I'll write a letter and send it to Yangzhou to see if the Imperial Guard will agree to let the Flying Tiger Army come over."

Wu Xiong nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I don't think there is any need to test them anymore. Now spread out the Ningzhou garrison, compress the enemy's space, continue to build defensive fortresses, and further block the enemy's attack What do you think of the route?”

"Yes, it's best to force them to fight us head-on."

The two hit it off immediately and went to work immediately, and Wu Xiong immediately mobilized Ningzhou's garrison.

And in Yangzhou.

Zhao Kang has also received news of the enemy's appearance, along with the equipment of Xia soldiers sent by Wu Xiong.

Looking at the crossbow in front of him, the style was similar to the one used by Qian Guo.

The quality of the ironware is better, but that is only compared to the former Qian Kingdom.

"Husband."

With a soft call, he turned around to see Yufeng. Zhao Kang smiled and stretched out his hand to take the woman into his arms.

"This is this?" Looking at the weapons and equipment on the table, Yufeng was a little surprised.

"Let Gongsun Yunxiu be right, the enemy is really coming from the east."

Resting his chin on the woman's shoulder, Zhao Kang smiled.

Qin Yufeng was slightly startled: "So, there's going to be another war?"

Ever since she met and fell in love with Zhao Kang, she had been by Zhao Kang's side for the longest time. Looking back now, she realized that it seemed like the people around her were at war most of the time.

Zhao Kang squinted: "It's hard to say for the time being. Reports from the front line indicate that the enemy troops came from the Tianshan ridge behind Ningzhou."

"I sent people to investigate that place before. They said that after crossing the ridge, there is a wilderness shrouded in white mist. No one has come out after entering."

"I really don't know where these guys came from. The news says that these enemy troops are quite large in number and are quite well prepared."

Zhao Kang said with a smile: "This shows that these guys are coming to our Qian Kingdom. Either this Xia Kingdom knows something about us, or it is."

"Is there a spy?" Yufeng asked in surprise.

"It's hard to say."

Zhao Kang murmured: "If there are spies, the enemy should be on guard against our firearms, instead of charging straight to death. Speaking of which, I suddenly thought of a person just now."

Looking at Zhao Kang's expression, Yufeng already knew who he was thinking about, and said softly: "Is it Prince Ning?"

Even Xiao Linglong and Ye Hongxue, as the eldest and second eldest child, didn't know how Zhao Kang felt about this enemy who was beaten to death by his own hands.

However, Yufeng knew very well that after destroying the Zhou Kingdom, in his free time, Zhao Kang would often go to the Noble Hall alone for a while and visit the former Ning Prince's Mansion.

If King Ning had not had his own ambitions, if Zhao Kang had not fallen in love with Xiao Linglong.

The two were supposed to be like-minded friends.After humming, Zhao Kang said with a smile: "That guy told me before he died that his female master Lu Xueying came from a country in the east."

"If someone named Lu can come here, others can naturally do it, and it is estimated that the enemy coming this time may be from the country where Lu Xueying is located."

"If Feng Xian really becomes the emperor, maybe the Qian Kingdom will already be fighting against the so-called Xia Kingdom."

It can make a second-grade strong man want to become the emperor and take revenge. Then what else can the enemy be besides a country?
"How long will the fight last this time?" Qin Yufeng asked reluctantly, stroking her sweetheart's cheek.

Even if you don't do anything every day, it's nice to just be by his side like this.

After kissing the woman's soft little hand, Zhao Kang smiled and said, "I'll go and talk first. If they retract honestly, everything will be fine."

"On the other hand, if they are really coming for our country, then be prepared to be destroyed!"

At the end of the sentence, Zhao Kang's eyes revealed a hint of ferocity.

I finally managed to live a good life with my wife and children on the hot bed for a few days. You bastards have to come and disturb me, right?

If you delay me from picking up eight wives, I will kill you first!
The next day.

Zhao Kang came to the steam station and took Watt on a hot air balloon to the Ningzhou camp.

As for why they brought this guy Watt along, it wasn't that there was any secret mission.

It's all because this guy developed a hot air balloon, and it's number 18.

If you take him flying with you, you should not encounter any accidents and your safety will be guaranteed.

In the Xia Kingdom military camp.

Pioneer General Dongfang Yue waited all night, but he didn't wait for the news from the people he sent out.

I can't help but feel a little suspicious. Even if I encounter an ambush, should I run back one or two?
Why is there no one there yet? Could it be that they have already fought?It shouldn’t be!What a weird thing.

Just when he was suspicious, the deputy general hurriedly ran into the tent: "General, something bad happened!"

"Say!" Dongfang Yue stood up.

"Our troops led by Du Yu, Zhang Lin, Guan'er and the others were all wiped out by the enemy!"

Dongfang Yue was stunned: "What did you say? They were all wiped out? No one survived?"

The deputy general looked a little excited: "Yes, no one survived, they all died!"

"How is this possible! Where are the bodies! What a joke, not one of the more than 4000 people is alive, are they pigs? Pigs will run away and bark twice when they are killed! How could they all be wiped out!"

Dongfang Yue was very angry. The battle hadn't even started yet, but he had lost more than 4000 people in just one test. How was he going to fight this battle?
How could there be such an outrageous thing!
So much so that he personally left to see where the lieutenant said the bodies were piled up.

Everyone saw a scene that they will never forget in this life.

The densely packed corpses looked charred and black, and the ground was covered with hands, feet and dried blood.

The ground was full of potholes, and the corpses with broken armor and torn apart were like scattered puzzle pieces, formed into a mountain of corpses by the army.

Du Yu's head, which was chopped off by Qianjun as a victory in battle, was facing the highest point of the corpse mountain. His face was filled with horror and despair as he looked at Dongfang Yue and a group of vanguard generals who were coming.

Next to the mountain of corpses, a large flag was erected, whistling under the scorching sun and strong wind, and a few words on the flag could be vaguely read.

Anyone who offends our great cause will be punished no matter how far away they are.
