Part Two Chapter 26 The National Treasure 1

[69 Book Bar-www.] As soon as I arrived at the gate of Wenhou Mansion, I jumped off my horse, and the guardian came over and said, "Who is it?"

I walked up and said, "Little man Chu Xiuhong, I have something important to meet Lord Wenhou."

The gatekeeper probably forgot about me, the former general, and said, "You are waiting for the order at the door."

He was a little arrogant, probably many people had seen, and even those in-service officers had to be respectful when they came to see Wenhou. Naturally, I, a commoner, didn't take it in his eyes. I had no choice but to wait there restlessly.

After a while, the man came over and said, "Sir, please come in." He was also a little surprised, probably saying the word "please" to Wenhou, a little confused.

I didn't care about him and rushed in. When I arrived at the living room with the "Wenyihuadao" hanging, I knelt down at the door and shouted: "Little man Chu Xiuhong, please see Lord Wenhou."



Wenhou was looking at a piece of parchment paper, looking a little worried. He heard my voice, and he put away the parchment paper and said, "Mr. Chu, come in."

I walked inside and gave another big tribute: "Sir, thank you for your kindness to save me."

Wenhou smiled and said, "If you have something to say, you won't be here to thank me for your kindness."

His words became much more peaceful, and I calmed down and said, "The villain just thought that Dongping City had a weakness, so we should strictly prevent snakes and people from attacking water."

As soon as I said that, Wenhou changed color and said, "Do you think so too?"

I couldn't help but say, "Some people think so too?" I thought that only I thought of it, but I was quite proud, but when Wenhou said that others thought of it, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Wenhou said, "It's nothing, you say

Well, why beware?"

"When the villain went to Dongping City, he saw a snake man building a dike on the river surface, but the dike was not closed. This spring, there was not much rain in Dongping City, but the river surface was rising, so the villain thought that the snake man built a dike on the river surface.

It’s really about storing water.”

Wen Hou hit his right palm with his left hand and said, "Sure enough." He smiled, handed me the parchment in his hand and said, "Look at it."

I took the parchment in surprise, which read: "I thought that Dongping City is indestructible, and Dongyang City is also invincible, so it is not difficult to stick to it. Those who are worried about it will attack the water. I will ask Shao Zi to be careful."

The signature is Deng Canglan.

Wenhou said: "Canglan is now on Juluo Island. He is well aware of water wars. He said this in the letter. Shao Fengguan also said that when he is guarding against snakes and people attacking water, he must gradually transfer the civilians in the city. I am undecided, and you also say so,

That just made me determined.”

To transfer civilians? Isn’t that a proposal to abandon the city? I couldn’t help but say: “How can I abandon the city?”

Wenhou smiled bitterly and said, "The enemy draws water to the city, how many ways are there to crack it?"

The only way to crack the city is to dig another ditches, or strengthen the city and defend it until reinforcement arrives to break the enemy. But the Snake Man is so powerful that although Dongping City can defend, it must reach the city under the nose of the Snake Man

It is impossible to dig out river branches outside. As for sending reinforcements to break up the Snake Man, it is even more impossible. It can be said that if the Snake Man successfully attacks Dongping City, it will be an unsolvable death situation, except for

There is no other way to abandon the city. However, Shao Fengguan proposed to transfer civilians. Once the snake man did not attack the water, he would inevitably be scolded by everyone. That was not something that could be easily decided. I said a little nervously: "So

, what the adults mean…”

Wenhou said: "The people can be withdrawn, but the troops cannot be withdrawn."

He spoke very resolutely, and I couldn't help but tremble. Wenhou's meaning was that he would rather be wiped out than abandon Dongping City. I don't know what Wenhou was thinking, and he wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask more.

Wenhou also knew that he had a little silence, so he smiled and said, "Did Mr. Chu tell anyone about this matter?"

I said, "No one has ever said it."

Wenhou thought for a while and said, "That's good. If Dongping City can be guarded for three months, then as long as Beining City guarded for another three months, time will be enough."

He patted my shoulder and smiled and said, "General Chu, the knife is in the sheath, and it will not harm its advantage. If you want to attack someone, you must first retreat the fist. You should understand this principle."

He actually called me "General" again, which meant that I still had to use me? I was excited and said, "Chu Xiuhong would like to listen to the lord's condemnation and would never refuse."

Wenhou said: "I have two generals of water and fire, General Chu, you have two woods in your surname. Water produces wood, and wood produces fire. He is the third general who is made in heaven and earth. Haha, you have to work hard."

He said it very easily, but it was like a thunderbolt. Wenhou's subordinates were obviously water, fire, and wind. Why did he say there were only two? Could it be... I dare not think about it anymore. In fact, I don't need to think about it and know it without thinking.

, It is inevitable that the city of Dongping City will be destroyed. It is just that we must preserve our strength and do not make people feel that we are fleeing in fear of war. The best way is to sacrifice one person. Shao Fengguan was sent to Dongping City, so there was already sacrifice.

The meaning is that if the second prince was in the battle that time, he would definitely take Shao Fengguan as a punishment.

This time, Wenhou can sacrifice Shao Fengguan. If it is useful in the future, won’t he sacrifice me?

When I left Wenhou's mansion, I was already uneasy. Wenhou agreed to let the civilians move, and that was already a good thing. If I were in his position, I would probably not agree to let Dongping's heavy troops retreat without fighting. However, Zhen Yi

Ning is also in Dongping City now, and Hou Wen will not allow the withdrawal of his troops. Is it because he wants Zhen Yining to die in the city?

I sighed. Judging from Wenhou’s meaning, I was already planning and making progress. I was so confident that I would do more. When I returned to my residence, I lit a candle and made up for the "Detailed Explanation of Thunder Crossbow".

After reading the chapter carefully, I was very tired, and I sat on the bed for a while before falling asleep. For some reason, when I was meditating in the cage, I felt a feeling of true energy flowing in my body, but now I rarely feel it.

Sometimes I really suspect that the mind-calculating technique I suddenly used that night was just dreaming. But Xue Wenyi clearly said that Chen Zhong discussed it with him, and he also gave Chen Zhong a soundtrack, which means that the matter was not good, if that

Xiao Fang did not win my mind-catching skills, and Wei Zongzheng would not have let me out so easily, but I was afraid that there would be troubles.

After thinking about it, I couldn't figure it out. For two consecutive days, I was studying the book "Detailed Explanation of Thunder Crossbow". When I was tired, I would sit down. After the class on the third day, I just returned to my residence. The military academy sent a coarse cloth.

The bag wrapped. I saw that the words above were Xue Wenyi's handwriting, and knew that it must be the crossbow I asked him to make, so I immediately opened it. There was a crossbow inside, and a wooden box. The cylindrical crossbow body

It is carved from iron and wood, but the crossbow is made of steel. I picked it up and looked at it. The crossbow was made extremely exquisitely, and each part was quenched and pressed heavily. There were words written in this coarse cloth bag, yes

Xue Wenyi's letter, he told me that the crossbow I want is powerful and has a range of up to 40 steps. It is enough to shoot through iron armor within twenty steps. It is not strong enough to use wood as a result, so he asked for important parts.

Jinfu made of stainless steel.

I weighed it. Although the crossbow was a little heavier, I could still use it with one hand. Xue Wenyi only gave me six arrows. Because the crossbow is much smaller than an ordinary bow, and the arrow is shorter, so I can do it

Very exquisite, so the arrows need to be specially made, all made of steel, and even the tail feathers are made of steel. If the arrow is shot, the hand crossbow will be useless. In the world, as Xue Wenyi said, there are most of them.

Not satisfied.

When I got this crossbow, I couldn't help but want to try it. There are three sockets behind the crossbow, which can be inserted into the arrow. I installed the arrow and aimed it at a tree more than ten steps away.

The trigger, with a "bang", an arrow shot out and shot into the tree. It was inserted very deeply, revealing only the arrow feathers outside. I was only surprised and hurriedly went over and took a look. The arrow was too deep.
