Chapter 313
"My lord, no gunpowder was detected. We checked carefully and found nothing." The guard came back and reported.
King Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, suspicion arose in his heart, could it be that Lu Yu was dragging his time, waiting for something? No matter what you wait, you can't make him succeed.
"Army attack!"
King Xi spoke in a condensed voice.
As soon as the army left the city gate, they were preparing explosives to deal with Li Yi, and they exploded suddenly.
Not only was there a rumble at the gate of the city, but there were explosions in many places in Yizhou.
Prince Xi's Mansion and the major families were all patronized by Gunpowder.
The chaos was extreme, a cart of gunpowder was pushed to the city gate, and as soon as the people evacuated, several rockets shot up.
With a huge bang, the heavy city gate was covered with scars, and it fell to the ground with a bang.
These few incidents caused King Xi and the others to change their complexions in shock.
"My lord, Lu Yu has moved, the army is coming towards us at full speed!" The soldiers rushed to King Xi and reported.
King Xi looked at the panicked army and clenched his fists, with hatred in his eyes.
Yizhou checked again and again, but still failed to wipe out those people. At such a critical moment, they actually asked them to make trouble.
hateful! ! !
King Xi's teeth were almost bleeding.
"retreat!"
"Let everyone quit, Yizhou, let's give up!" King Xi said with a ruthless expression on his face.
"Attack Bachang Mansion with all our strength!"
The morale of the army has been disturbed, and the city gate has been destroyed. In this situation, Lu Yu is bound to be unable to resist. He can only join the [-] troops led by Meng Han and take the Bachang Mansion as a base, and then take the Ninghe Mansion.
At that time, even if you can't attack Zijing City, you can stabilize it first, and then plan for follow-up.
"Commander, King Xi left Yizhou and ran away with his people." A spy came to Li Yi and reported.
Li Yi frowned slightly, but he made a quick decision.
"Commander, do you want to chase after him?" Yin Cheng looked at Li Yi asking for instructions.
Li Yi shook his head, "I'll chase after him, I'm sure I'll go to the Palace of the King of Hell to report after there's an explosion."
"Rectify Yizhou first."
"As for King Xi, after abandoning Yizhou, he will definitely go to attack other cities. Bachang Mansion will be the first choice. We have prepared good things on the two necessary roads from Yizhou to Bachang Mansion."
"It was originally used to deal with Meng Han's [-] troops, but King Xi is more than happy to enjoy it."
"Let the spies check the road again."
Li Yi looked forward, and said in a deep voice, he didn't want to be turned back by King Xi.
"Commander, a total of 22 people were arrested, and gunpowder was buried one mile outside the city gate and at the gate of the city."
Li Yi rubbed his head with his hands. Firearms are undoubtedly a good thing. Even after others have controlled them, there is no guarantee of safety.
Looking back, it must be strictly controlled.
After repeated inspections to make sure everything was safe, Li Yi led the army into Yizhou.
The high-level people in Yizhou have already run away with King Xi, and most of the people left behind are ordinary people.
In a hurry, some small aristocratic families failed to keep up with King Xi's footsteps.
Seeing Li Yi occupying Yizhou now, everyone was uneasy.
And Li Yi did not disappoint them, just like in Zijing City, there was a bloodbath.
To rebel, you must have this awareness.
Li Yi didn't take any of the money collected from the aristocratic family, and distributed it to the people of Yizhou.
Seeing that Li Yi did not massacre innocent people, but distributed money to them, the people were brainwashed by King Xi, and gradually recovered, it seems that they are not so cruel.
"Commander, although there are still people who have fled Yizhou out of fear, the overall situation has gradually stabilized." Li Yi put down the tea cup, "Yin Cheng, I was afraid of disturbing your mind before, so I didn't mention it. Now, it's Isn’t it time to hand over the bet?”
"Commander, when you're away from home, how can you have money? I'll give it to you when you get back to Zijing City." Yin Cheng patted his chest and promised.
Li Yi leaned at him, "At the moment, if you renege on your debts, I'll just forget about it, but now, you know how tight I am."
"Being able to cheat a fortune is a fortune, return to Zijing City, if the bet is not paid..."
"Hmph, I will increase the interest." Li Yi raised his legs, looking like a landowner at the moment.
Yin Cheng rubbed his nose, this money is not easy to run away, if he knew it earlier, he would have gambled less, greed really is not a good thing.
When he turned around, Yin Cheng thought of the news from Qingjun. In line with the principle of losing alone, it is better to lose all than others. Brothers who are in trouble are more loving. He added fuel and jealousy without hesitation, and said that Tang Zhengqi had put the blame on Li Yi.
"Commander, this Lieutenant Tang is really too much."
"Knowing that we are all in financial difficulties, we still do such a thing."
"I just want to squeeze your blood dry."
"This kind of bad habit must never be started, heavy punishment, heavy punishment must be imposed!" Yin Cheng's face was full of indignation.
Li Yi's eyes narrowed, good boy, he's bald, yet he dares to squeeze!
"Yin Cheng, go and make a devil training plan, and when you get back, let Captain Tang relax your muscles and bones!"
"Yes."
Yin Cheng looked solemn, as if what they were talking about was extremely serious.
Losing money is certainly heartbreaking, but Tang Zhengqi is much more miserable than him.
Compared with Tang Zhengqi, his little money is really nothing.
He's really a guy looking for raffles. It's not easy to pay for public money.
Especially now, he thinks a copper coin is very important.
"My lord, after Lu Yu entered Yizhou, he had no intention of chasing him."
"He is cautious, and this king's arrangement was in vain." King Xi's eyes were a little annoyed.
He wished he could cut people into pieces, but he couldn't hurt them at all. This kind of feeling made King Xi feel so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.
"My lord, gunpowder was found in the forest. There is a lot of it, enough for a cart."
After suffering a lot, the spies were very busy along the way, not only to detect traps, but also to detect gunpowder.
Almost when they ensured safety, the army would move forward.
King Xi's eyes were dark, and Lu Yu calculated that he would go to Bachang Mansion, and set up an ambush on the only way he must pass, trying to give him another blow.
However, in the same somersault, how could he fall continuously.
"I took the gunpowder and returned it to him when the time comes." King Xi's voice was cold.
"Have you found anyone hiding?"
The personal guard shook his head, "It should have been wrong, so he ran away."
"Be careful and expand the search area." King Xi looked at the forest and said lightly.
After repeated investigations by spies to ensure that there was no danger, the army entered the forest.
From entering to exiting, there was no abnormality in the surrounding area, and the weather was calm.
King Xi looked back, with a sneer in his eyes, Lu Yu, do you think you can succeed again and again?
Everything today, in the future, I will make you pay back a hundredfold! Suppressing the resentment in his heart, King Xi led the army and continued to march towards Bachang Mansion.
Twenty miles away, on a mountainside, hundreds of people looked out against the wind, and dozens of simple trebuchets stood in the wind.
Like the guards, they were all waiting for the arrival of King Xi and the others.
In the box behind is a jar of earthen jars.
The mouth of the crock is a lead wire about the length of the palm.
