Several birds and beasts with blue bodies but green eyes glided and fell from the sky with the wind, landing in the courtyard of Hu Lan's mansion.
As soon as he landed in the main room, which was far away from the beautiful trees and with the doors and windows closed, there was a clear and loud "pop".
The birds were frightened, and when they jumped in fright, they spread their wings and flew high, shaking off a few feathers, whirling and turning in the courtyard with the morning breeze.
In the main room, Hu Qingyun, who had been slapped, tilted his head, narrowed his eyes, clenched his teeth, and sucked in a breath of cold air. There was already a resentment mixed with anger and dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Soon, Hu Qingyun clenched his teeth and exhaled hot and fast breath from his nose. But he didn't say a word.
Hu Qingyun was used to being beaten. He had been beaten since he was a child and had good food and clothing. Every time, Hu Lan personally took action, either slapped or hit with a stick.
He was used to this slap on Hu Qingyun's face today. He was just not convinced. Why did he receive such a slap again?
In his current view, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that Xiao Shizhu, the ghost mother's capital, was no longer in Yuque City. Hu Qingyun still wanted to take a gamble.
"How do you know there is no trap in this matter?" Hu Lan suppressed the anger that burst out in her chest. After breathing heavily for a few times, she lowered her voice and said to her son in a deep voice: "Xiao Shizhu Ghost Mother, Lai Yueqi and Xiao Fuling are all Jiuyou.
The most prestigious ghost in the country, Lai Yueqi, has been in charge of the weapons supervisor of Jiuyou Kingdom for more than ten years, and has trained a lot of military industry experts.
Countless, scattered in various places. He also assisted Xiao Fuling in supervising the country for half a year, and some ministers in the court also respected him very much. Xiao Fuling is much younger than you, but he studied under the imperial masters Yingying and Nuba, and in Jiuyou
She has studied in the country's academy for many years. This country is full of her senior sisters and senior brothers in the academy, what can you do to fight her?"
"Let alone Xiao Shizhu, let's talk about this ghost mother. She was the servant of the gods ten thousand years ago. She followed Emperor Fengdu to pacify the devil and planned to gain the throne. What she learned through words and deeds allowed her to go to Emperor Fengdu after he ascended the throne.
Shuoyue Island has been the king of Hades for thousands of years. It is only because of the small size of the projectile.
The island, based in this troubled world, has never seen any big winds and waves." Hu Lan was still angry, but the anger in her face was still there, not decreasing but increasing: "She was planning a layout and defeated one enemy after another.
At that time, you were still a liquid! You have to fight her when your hair is fully grown. Are you afraid you are crazy?"
After saying that, Hu Lan was still angry and walked quickly back and forth in the house.
"Father, so what?" Hu Qingyun couldn't bear it anymore and finally stood up. His unwilling eyes followed the figure of his father Hu Lan walking back and forth. At the same time, he growled in excitement: "There is no chance.
Is that it? Along with risk comes failure! But what happens once we succeed? We have unlimited rights, countless glory and wealth, and...".
"There's a fart!" Hu Lan interrupted his son, rushed to his son in a few steps, looked directly into the excitement in his eyes, and said word by word: "Do you know what is under the big tree?
Want to enjoy the cool air? Did all the books you read before end up in the dog's belly?"
When the last sentence came out of his mouth, Hu Lan stabbed his son's chest hard with his finger every time a word came out of his mouth.
The sharp claws on his fingers soon poked holes in the front of his son's clothes.
"Regardless of whether your plan will fail, let's assume it succeeds. Jiuyou Kingdom is destroyed, and your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. Do you have the ability to fight against the Beiyin Dynasty?" Hu Lan said angrily, walked back to his chair and sat down.
.
"Don't underestimate Xiao Shizhu, don't underestimate the ghost mother. You have to fight them in the next life." After getting angry, Hu Lan looked tired.
His body felt a little limp, so he grabbed the handrails with both hands to straighten his waist.
Hu Qingyun was still unwilling to give in. He didn't listen to a word of what his father just said. When he was about to open his mouth to argue, Hu Lan had already shouted outside the room: "Here comes someone!".
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps sounded outside the door, approaching from far away, heading towards the main room.
After a while, the door opened.
The morning light came in again and instantly filled the entire main room.
Several servants strode in. Before even saluting, they were startled when they saw the still angry Hu Lan, the smashed bowls and chopsticks, and the food spilled everywhere.
"Immediately close the door and thank the guests. No matter who comes, tell them that I am seriously ill and cannot see guests." Hu Lan sighed and said weakly: "Watch the young master and do not allow him to step out of the mansion, nor do he allow him to interact with outsiders.
What the hell is there contact with?"...
The roaring sea breeze blew past Baodu Pass and swept away the mess inside the pass.
Rubbles are scattered all over the scorched passes, and many charred beams and pillars stand swaying between the ruins. Under the rubble, you can also see the broken limbs of demons and beasts, and the dead human souls.
The powder turned into powder was crushed to the ground by gravels of different sizes.
Under the protection of the guards, Wei Zheng and Lu Zhidao drove the beasts into the pass. But looking left and right, all they saw was devastation. The muscles in the corners of the eyes of the two ghost ministers who were used to seeing strong winds and waves could not help but twitch.
.
I heard that Baoduguan was bombarded by the Jiuyou Kingdom fleet, but I didn't expect it to be so miserable.
How many houses are still standing in the pass? You can count them on your fingers. Other high walls and arrow towers, as well as fortifications and city walls, have all been reduced to ruins and broken walls, burned by the flames.
The scorch marks left on it are shocking.
The army that was ordered to come from nearby areas has been cleaning up here for more than ten days, but they have not been able to clean up the ruins here.
"What kind of artillery bombardment are these?" After Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng walked around the pass together, the shock in Lu Zhidao's eyes did not decrease but increased.
The pass in front of us is the first pass in the underworld, with a circumference of about several thousand miles. It is a small city with the city as the pass. A city was completely razed to the ground by shelling, but the warships from Jiuyou Kingdom that came to attack were no more than one.
There are only a hundred ships. How many artillery can they carry? I wouldn’t believe it even if I told you about it.
Without saying a word, Wei Zheng drove the beast to the south of the pass, stopped on the coast, turned over and got off the beast soul, and stood on the beach where the waves were coming back and forth.
He silently looked in front of him. There were still countless broken logs and broken boards floating on the sea, broken sails and oars as black as carbon.
Three hundred warships of the Beiyin Dynasty navy are stationed here. They are all the main battleships of the Beiyin Dynasty, and are large treasure ships with keels made of giant dragon spines. The navy soldiers and boatmen on them are all Beiyin Dynasty watermen.
The elites of the division who have experienced hundreds of battles. But at this time, those warships have been broken into pieces, soaked in the sea water, and scattered with the waves.
This scene is truly heartbreaking to watch.
"I don't know what kind of gun it is, but the rate of fire and power are very high. In addition, Jiuyou Country is a sneak attack and an undeclared war. We are not ready yet..." A surviving ghost soldier accompanied him all the way.
He led Lu Zhidao and Wei Zheng around the pass and then came to this place.
After hearing Lu Zhidao's question, he lowered his head and replied: "We were not prepared yet. The artillery fire from Jiuyou Kingdom came overwhelmingly. The sky was filled with artillery fire, and the entire pass was enveloped in a sea of fire and explosions in an instant."
The sea breeze blew by, and the cuffs of Wei Zheng's prison uniform were swaying, and the iron shackles in his hands were shaking slightly. He gradually listened to the narrative of the ghost soldiers behind him, but a trace of imperceptible anger also appeared on his face.
"Along with the artillery fire came the warships and warships that could fly in the air from their Nine Nether Kingdom, as well as a large number of aerial cavalry and flying troops." The sergeant mentioned the tragedy of that day again, and couldn't help but feel a sore nose: "
Our warships and forward defenses were reduced to ruins and fragments under the flames after two or three rounds of shelling."
"You deserve it." Wei Zhengyi became angry and looked directly at the sea ahead, his eyes becoming deeper: "Which war has both sides getting ready and shouting one, two, three before starting the war? You guys?
The guarding sergeant didn’t understand this and deserved to be beaten, and deserved to be beaten so miserably!”.
As he spoke, Wei Zheng, who was slightly excited, had a little admiration in his eyes. It was not for the army of the Northern Yin Dynasty, but for his enemies, the ghost generals and soldiers of the Jiuyou Kingdom.
Xiao Shizhu, the opponent he will meet soon.
Wei Zheng didn't know what method Xiao Shizhu used to make his sergeants understand the war so well, so that every sergeant knew that the war was either life or death, so when the opportunity arose, they would seize it without hesitation.
Even if they use all possible means, strike first, and fight without declaring it, the soldiers of Jiuyou Kingdom will not hesitate.
This is exactly what Wei Zheng admires about Xiao Shizhu.
Lu Zhidao, who was beside Wei Zheng, suddenly froze when he heard this. Then he looked around and saw many sergeants accompanying him. He didn't care about anything and quickly reminded Wei Zheng in a deep voice: "Brother Xuancheng, be careful what you say, be careful what you say!".
The sergeants around him were stunned for a moment, and then they all felt unhappy with Wei Zheng.
Unexpectedly, Lu Zhidao's reminder was not only useless, but also elicited a cold snort from Wei Zheng.
There was a lot of disdain and contempt in that cold snort, and there was no mercy at all for the mess and ruins around him, as well as the dead soldiers.
"The enemy's army is approaching the border. You, the sergeants guarding the border, should be ready for battle and stand ready, instead of being fooled by the enemy's peace talks." Under the sea breeze, Wei Zheng still did not look back, looking straight ahead at the surging waves, rising and falling.
The broken wood and broken boards finally let out a long sigh.
When the sea breeze blew over Wei Zheng's cheeks and corners of his eyes, sadness finally filled his eyes, and tears flashed in his eyes.
For this majestic pass, and for the hundreds of thousands of defenders who died fighting here.
He didn't think that the defenders here must die before, he just felt that they were useless and a pity to die. After summing up the experience, he felt sad from the bottom of his heart.
He suddenly sobbed and cried endlessly in the sea breeze. This made the ghost soldiers who were dissatisfied with him before lose their hatred and dissatisfaction. Instead, they felt the same, and they all felt sad. They all looked down at their toes and shed tears silently.
In my mind, I couldn't help but recall the miserable scene of the sea of fire rising one by one amid the earth-shattering cannon fire.
The rubble caused by the shelling was thrown horizontally in the flames, and the broken limbs and meat were thrown everywhere in the heat wave.
This kind of scene can still survive here after a long period of time. The few ghost soldiers have nightmares while sleeping, and they often wake up with cold sweats all over their bodies.
The powerful military products in the hands of the Jiuyou Kingdom's army have finally become something that the ghosts who are enemies of the Jiuyou Kingdom have nightmares about and are afraid of.
"Brother Lu, this is a lesson learned from the past." When Wei Zheng turned around and faced Lu Zhidao, his face was still filled with tears. Tears flowed across his red eyes, blurring his vision, and he continued to say earnestly: "Let's go back, but
You must never underestimate Jiuyou Kingdom again. It is better to overestimate than underestimate this opponent. Otherwise, the tragedy of Baoduguan will happen again."
Lu Zhidao didn't think much about it. After all, what Wei Zheng said was true, so he nodded heavily and said yes.
