I'm the villain in the book

"Wow! Wow!"

Wei Changtian, who was busy washing his face, didn't have time to explain, but Xu Qingwan, who was next to him, replied with a smile, "My lord said it's a kind of weapon."

"Huh? Weapons?"

Yuan'er pouted and muttered in a low voice: "It doesn't look like a weapon, no matter how you look at it, it's not serious..."

"Pfft!"

Xu Qingwan and Qiuyun were immediately amused by this sentence, and they laughed from ear to ear.

Only Wei Changtian was greatly humiliated, and angrily snatched the towel from Yuan'er's hand.

"What's going on in your head all day!"

"Okay, it's done washing, let's go out!"

"Yes~Sir~"

Yuan'er made a long sound on purpose, picked up the copper basin with a smile, and walked out of the house with Qiuyun.

But when she turned around and closed the door, she blinked and said something into the room.

"Young master, will Madam be able to see your cannon tonight?"

"?"

"Come on! Not only can she see it! You can too!"

"Heck! Slaves don't want to look!"

"Young master and madam, let's rest early~"

"..."

The laughter outside the house faded away, but Yuan'er and Qiuyun still didn't stay to enjoy the "cannon" with Comrade Xiao Xu.

Wei Changtian was angry and amused, so he went back to the table and looked at the design drawing he had drawn carefully.

It doesn't matter if you don't read it, the more he reads it, the more he feels that what Yuan'er said makes sense, and even makes him feel a little unconfident.

If Nima is really made, it is estimated that the biggest lethality is to make the enemy laugh to death!

"Wan'er, is this really like... that object?"

Scratching his head, Wei Changtian was going to seek Xu Qingwan's opinion.

But the latter didn't answer, just kept covering his mouth and laughing.

"What are you laughing at!"

Wei Changtian became anxious immediately: "I'm asking you seriously, tell me if you look like me!"

"Goose, goose, it's not like..."

Comrade Xiao Xu laughed more and more vigorously, but at a certain moment he suddenly blushed.

She slowly picked up the hard pen on the table, and then added a few strokes on the design drawing under Wei Changtian's puzzled gaze.

After the change, the cannon has not changed in other places, except that the barrel has become a lot longer.

"This, this is like..."

"????"

Silent all night.

......

......

The next day, Ning Yuke and Qing Xian came back from the south.

Wei Changtian is a little afraid of the queen now, so he didn't go to the palace, but just found an accompanying official to briefly understand the situation in Datong City.

The new city has already begun full-scale construction, and it is estimated that the city wall will be built in three months.

And as long as the city wall is built, the monster race can basically start to "live in" one after another.

Of course, this matter must not be exposed so early, so let's build it like this first...

Another day.

Du Chang sent back news that the troops had entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains as planned and had seen the Ten Thousand Monster Beasts.

The Yaozu side is very cooperative, but there are also some minor situations.

For example, some monsters are unwilling to be the mounts of soldiers with lower strength than them.

For example, some soldiers are unwilling to ride monsters.

Another example is that some soldiers fell from the sky while riding a flying monster, and so on.

After all, it was the first time that humans and monsters cooperated, and it needed an adaptation stage, so Wei Changtian didn't pay too much attention to it. After asking Liang Zhen when he would return, he stopped caring about the details of training the new army.

That's it, another day.

On the third day after Lao Zhangtou left, Chu Xianping finally came back.

His negotiation this time can be described as a "big victory", borrowing a full 20 artisan coolies from the four surrounding states.

Of course, it was said to be a loan, but it was actually a demand. Wei Changtian never thought of returning these people back.

In the future, these 20 people will enter Shuzhou in the form of "refugees", and then go straight to Datong to participate in the construction of the new city.

And Wei Changtian will provide them with a lot of rewards, as well as a piece of "self-owned fertile land" within the boundaries of Shuzhou.

With land and money, these people will most likely not go back, and only want to bring their wives and children to live in Shuzhou.

At that time, there will undoubtedly be another wave of population influx.

Therefore, Wei Changtian, who had already realized the importance of population, was very satisfied with this, and decided to go to the south to "inspect" the construction of Datong City in full swing.

However, his visit on the spur of the moment failed to materialize after all.

Because just an hour before he was about to leave, news suddenly came from Dafeng——

After several days of marching, Daning's 40 troops finally arrived at Fengyuan City yesterday.

After resting overnight, the army officially began to attack the city at dawn today.

When the spies spread the news, the first wave of siege battles had ended, and in just one confrontation, no less than [-] soldiers died on both sides.

And these are not the key.

What surprised Wei Changtian the most was the last sentence of the intelligence.

Dafeng Emperor Li Qi came to the city wall to supervise the battle, but was attacked by an unknown second-rank master, seriously injured and dying.

Chapter 403 No one is available!

The decisive battle between Daning and Dafeng started, which is not surprising.

Wei Changtian was really surprised that Li Qi was seriously injured on the first day of the battle.

Nima, don't you understand the reason why a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall?

You, an emperor, have nothing to do and go to the city wall to watch what's going on?

Wei Changtian naturally understands that Li Qi is trying to boost morale...but you have taken protective measures.

Why was it so easy to be attacked by others?

Cursing a few words inwardly, Wei Changtian began to think about another question in frustration.

According to the information, Li Qi was injured by an unknown second-rank expert...then who is this person?

You must know that as the top combat power, the second-rank masters of various countries are basically equivalent to the bright cards in their hands. Not only do they know it, but the enemy also knows it.

What are these people's names, what do they look like, what background do they have, what kind of exercises they practice, what kind of weapons they use well...

Just like the translucent military forces of various countries in the previous life, all these situations have long been cleared up by spies. The purpose is to find out the comprehensive combat power of the opponent and avoid misjudgments when making decisions by one's own side.

And now the situation couldn't be more obvious.

The second-rank warrior who shot this time is not within the scope of Da Feng's grasp.

An unknown master suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

The reason is nothing more than two possibilities.

Either this person hides very deeply and rarely shows his face, so Dafeng's spies don't even know that there is such a number one person in Daning.

Either this person is the "foreign aid" that Ning Yongnian has found, or he is a newly promoted Second Rank.

So, who is this person?

How many cards does Ning Yongnian have that he doesn't know?

"..."

Frowning tightly, Wei Changtian held the information for a long while without speaking.

Chu Xianping beside him waited for a while, then asked in a low voice:

"Young master, are you still going to Datong?"

"not going."

Wei Changtian shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether Datong sees it or not, it's better to find out what happened to Feng Yuan first."

After a short pause, he immediately ordered: "Brother Chu, immediately send a message to the spies in Fengyuan City... and Li Wutong, didn't we leave a piece of mother jade for her? By the way, ask her These few things."

"How is Li Qi's injury? Will he die?"

"If the injury is extremely serious, how many days can you last?"

"How is the war? Will it be affected by this?"

"Also, I would like to ask Dafeng what his plan is next. Is it war or peace? Or is he going to continue to retreat west?"

"Well... let's ask these first for the time being."

"Yes, I'll do it right now."

Nodding his head, Chu Xianping remembered everything Wei Changtian said in his heart.

He turned around and took two steps towards the door, then suddenly turned around and asked:

"By the way, son, should we send someone to Fengyuan in advance? If the situation is not right, we can take Princess Wuping back to Shuzhou in time."

"this......"

Tapping lightly on the table, Wei Changtian didn't answer right away.

He had always felt that this national war would last for several months, so he hadn't considered Li Wutong's safety.

But judging from the current situation, if Li Qi really burps like this, then there is a high probability that Dafeng will be defeated in a short period of time.

And at that time, Li Wutong, who is the only blood of the Dafeng royal family, will become a "sweet pastry".

The Li family definitely wanted to take her away and hide her as an important reliance for "restoring the country" in the future.

And Ning Yongnian will find her at all costs, or completely eradicate this "fire", or use her to complete the "indirect rule" of Dafeng.

Of course, all of this is speculation after all, and no one can say exactly what will happen.

But one thing is certain.

That is, if there really is such a day, no matter who is in the hands of Li Wutong, life will definitely not be easy.

Wei Changtian doesn't care about Dafeng's fate and Li Qi's life or death.

But he can't ignore Li Wutong's safety.

Therefore, right now it seems that someone should be sent to Feng Yuan to quietly pick up Li Wutong in advance.

only......

"Brother Chu, now that the imperial army is approaching, if we make a big move, we won't be able to escape Ning Yongnian's eyes, so we can only send a small group of people over there."

"But who to send?"

"..."

Frowning slightly, Chu Xianping was stunned by this question.
