Yu Ce led a convoy and delivered more than a dozen vehicles of arms to the mountain gate behind Huo Mansion. A group of soldiers came out and carried the things in.
Lin Ting and his senior workers worked all night, from afternoon to late at night. When the white fish belly just appeared on the horizon, he tightened the last screw.
He stood up and rubbed his eyes: "Go and invite the commander."
Huo Tingyu looked at the twenty cannons in front of him, clenched his fists, and felt his chest was hot. He said in a hoarse voice: "Go to the front line."
Knowing that today was the day for the war to begin, the Chen Mansion was full of people. Chen Jinjun looked at Lei Yishan, whom he had not seen for a long time, with some curiosity: "It's been a long time since I saw Master Lei."
Lei Yishan clasped his fists at Chen Jinjun: "I came here this time to thank my employer for sending someone to inform me, otherwise the Lei family would have suffered more or less."
Chen Jinjun waved his hands indifferently: "This is what it should be."
After saying that, Chen Jinjun looked at Xu Fanming.
Xu Fanming looked at Chen Jinjun's eyes and already guessed what Chen Jinjun wanted to ask. He took a leisurely sip of tea and said, "I told Yu Ce the news about Master Tang Qi, but who is this Master Tang Qi... I also
Not sure."
Chen Jinjun clicked his tongue and frowned in displeasure. The clue was broken again.
Businessmen with their own principles like Tang Qiye are rare. Chen Jinjun was very interested in him and was inevitably a little disappointed for a while.
Seeing Chen Jinjun's disappointment, Xu Fanming crossed his legs and said, "Whenever my boss goes to Rongcheng, we might have the chance to meet this Tang Qi Ye."
"The world is so chaotic now, so it's better not to run around." Chen Jinjun smiled and shook his head.
"Peace in the world?" Xu Fanming couldn't help but snorted, "I don't know if we can see such a day."
The whole room fell into a long silence.
Chen Jinjun looked sadly at the sky in the distance, where a magpie happened to fly.
She smiled and opened her mouth, only to hear a roar coming from the distance.
Everyone here knows that this is the first shot fired by Huo Tingyu's army.
No one heard what Chen Jinjun said. Only Xu Fanming, who had been watching Chen Jinjun, looked at Chen Jinjun's mouth shape and knew what Chen Jinjun said.
She said: "Yes."
Is it really possible? Xu Fanming looked at his hands and then looked up at the sky. The magpie flying in the sky just now was frightened by the sound of the cannon and jumped uneasily on the wall of the Chen Mansion.
Maybe. He couldn't help but look at the calm Chen Jinjun.
Chen Jinjun sat there, calculating the trends of the war.
After an hour or so, the sound of gunfire in the distance gradually stopped.
"Prepare the car and go to the north of the city."
Listening to Chen Jinjun's decisive order, Xu Fanming raised his eyebrows: "My boss is... going to see Huo Tingyu?"
Chen Jinjun turned back and looked at Xu Fanming: "Are you leaving? Let's go to the front line to have a look."
Xu Fanming looked into Chen Jinjun's eyes and knew that she had something to say, so he immediately followed Chen Jinjun out.
When he left the gate of Chen Mansion, Xu Fanming was not in a hurry and looked at Chen Jinjun meaningfully: "My boss is anxious to meet his sweetheart?"
Chen Jinjun was not angry either, but looked directly at Xu Fanming's teasing eyes: "So? Do you want the escort to go together?"
"My boss actually doesn't deny it." Xu Fanming narrowed his eyes and looked Chen Jinjun up and down, "It seems that my boss has made up his mind to identify him?"
Chen Jinjun said nothing, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Fanming with questioning eyes.
Seeing her attitude, Xu Fanming sighed quietly: "I thought that my boss was just relying on the Huo family to seek benefits. Now it seems that my boss has left his heart behind."
"So, the escort wants to tell me what I did wrong?" Chen Jinjun walked to the side of the rickshaw and sat down.
Xu Fanming took two steps forward and looked down at Chen Jinjun, with an indescribable meaning in his eyes: "At that time..."
Chen Jinjun stared at Xu Fanming with a warning in his eyes.
Xu Fanming grinned and turned his face to the side: "It's okay."
Then, Xu Fanming raised his chin at the coachman.
The driver pulled up the rickshaw and took Chen Jinjun to the north of the city.
Xu Fanming looked at Chen Jinjun's retreating back, and couldn't help but think of Mr. Wen's words when he asked him to marry Chen Jinjun.
No matter, after all, no one would have thought that these two people would get together.
Chen Jinjun looked at the rising black smoke outside the city wall and closed his eyes.
The rickshaw stopped slowly. Chen Jinjun sighed and was just about to open his eyes.
"Master, didn't you have a good rest last night?"
Hearing this voice, Chen Jinjun glanced over.
He saw Huo Tingyu wearing a military uniform, standing in front of him against the sun.
Chen Jinjun was stunned for a moment. It had to be said that Huo Tingyu's strong figure and the military uniform that symbolized the status of a commander made him look particularly majestic. But the moment he looked down at himself, he put on his clothes again.
It's a bit soft, and I can't help but indulge in this contrast.
She quickly came to her senses and asked him: "Is the beating over?"
Huo Tingyu nodded: "Chaiyang City...surrendered."
Although he knew Huo Tingyu would win, Chen Jinjun couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard the news of Chaiyang's surrender.
"Jiang Lu is so ambitious, why would he surrender?" Chen Jinjun raised his eyebrows.
Huo Tingyu nodded: "I can't help but you and I don't believe it, because if the fight continues, the tower in Chaiyang will be blown up."
"How many shells are left?" Chen Jinjun remembered that the shells Yu Ce brought back were limited, and he didn't know how many would be left after this battle.
Huo Tingyu shook his head: "I don't know the specific number, but there shouldn't be much left."
Chen Jinjun clicked his tongue.
"What's the matter with my boss?" Huo Tingyu turned aside to block Chen Jinjun from the noon sun.
"Let's see if the marshal can win." Chen Jinjun sat on the rickshaw and looked up at Huo Tingyu.
"Why, my boss doesn't believe that I can win?" Huo Tingyu looked at Chen Jinjun teasingly.
Chen Jinjun shook his head: "After all, you have to hear the commander say it himself to feel relieved, not to mention that on the battlefield, bullets don't have eyes."
"My boss is caring about me." Huo Tingyu smiled, looking at Chen Jinjun with an indescribable emotion in his eyes.
Chen Jinjun was stunned for a moment, and rarely denied it. Instead, he looked at Huo Tingyu and smiled.
Huo Tingyu's heart was pounding. God knows how much Chen Jinjun's innocent smile encouraged him.
He couldn't help but hold his breath and looked at Chen Jinjun silently.
Until the sound of footsteps coming from behind Huo Tingyu broke the rare atmosphere between the two.
Huo Tingyu frowned displeased, turned around, and saw one of his adjutants.
"What's wrong?"
"Commander, Marshal Chai Yangjiang sent someone to deliver the peace letter."
Peace letter? Not to mention Chen Jinjun, even Huo Tingyu was confused.
Based on his understanding of Jiang Lu, it was impossible for Jiang Lu to just swallow his anger and give up after being beaten so badly.
He had long guessed that Jiang Lu would use various excuses to evade the provocation, but this did not include Jiang Lu sending someone to deliver a peace letter.
Huo Tingyu took the so-called peace letter from the adjutant's hand doubtfully and took a look at it.
Then, Huo Tingyu's brows twisted into the character "Sichuan".
"What's wrong?" Chen Jinjun saw that Huo Tingyu's expression was wrong and asked him.
Huo Tingyu hesitated for a moment: "Jiang Lu said here that we would discuss it in detail at his house."
