But fortunately, the city wall of Shenjing is high enough, and it is estimated that the Huns will not be able to attack it for a while.

Zhang Yong's roar finally had some effect, and the soldiers began to draw their bows and shoot arrows in an orderly manner.

Although the speed is a bit slow, it is on the right track anyway.

Seeing this unbearable scene, Zhang Yong's face turned blue. "Four eight zero"

Jia Jue gave Xu Chu behind him a look, and asked him to lead the Musketeers to set up defenses on the city wall.

Firearms are still ahead of bows and arrows, but to use firearms as a trump card, the most important thing is to be surprised.

If the Huns deliberately guarded against it, there was nothing they could do with firearms.

Zhang Yong looked at the strange behavior of Jia Jue's guard, but he didn't say much.

At this tense moment, he was in no mood to say unnecessary words, and only hoped that Shenjingcheng could hold on for a few more days.

It didn't take long for the Xiongnu to rush under the city wall, and they began to rush into the city gate in a chaotic manner.

Seeing this scene, Jia Jue breathed a sigh of relief.

It's really a mob fighting shrimp soldiers and crab generals.

He admitted that the Xiongnu were very good at rushing to kill immediately, but it was a bit difficult for them to let them attack the city seriously.

Inside the city gate, Zhang Yong arranged for soldiers to block it here in advance, just to prevent the city from being broken by the Huns.

Judging from this situation, it should be able to last for a few days.

"put!!"

Zhang Yong gave an order, and a large number of rolling logs and stones poured down on the city wall, causing screams from below, and blood flowing into rivers.

A few more rounds of rolling logs fell, and there were basically no complete Huns standing under the city wall.

Shan Yu, the leader of the Huns in the distance, frowned subconsciously as he watched such a scene.

He has already rushed from nine sides and thousands of miles, and he was able to catch these proud Central Plains people by surprise, but he didn't expect them to be fully prepared.

He is not good at siege on his side, and he knows this disadvantage.

It's just that Shenjingcheng is such a big piece of fat, it's a bit unwilling to give up on him.

Looking at the tragic situation under the city wall, Shan Yu felt like giving up.

However, a subordinate behind him made some suggestions, that is to use local materials to build some engineering equipment.

This is also the usual means of the Central Plains War.

Hearing this, Shan Yu began to ask for details with some excitement.

In the end, the two discussed for a while, and decided to withdraw their troops, build the tools and then start the project.

As the trumpets sounded, the Huns outside Shenjing gradually retreated.

Seeing the Xiongnu withdrawing their troops, Zhang Yong touched the cold sweat on his forehead. It seemed that he had survived today.

It's just that he doesn't know what to do in the future.

Outside the city, the Xiongnu took advantage of the turmoil in the black city and began to build engineering machines.

In Shenjing City, the Longshou Palace has become a mess.

The civil servants headed by the chief minister of the cabinet, Zheng Shan, began to accuse Cheng Guogong of making rash advances and putting Emperor Longzheng in such danger.

They still mainly moved the capital, but at this time Shenjing City was surrounded by Huns, and the last time to leave the city had been delayed.Everyone's eyes are on Jia Jue, the yellow-mouthed kid

At the beginning, he was the one who advocated not moving the capital and fighting to the end.

This is indeed the case now. The Xiongnu's attack on the first day was blocked, and it also exposed some disadvantages of the Beijing camp.

This is a group of recruits who have never been on the battlefield. It is really outrageous for them to guard Shenjing City.

Now if there is a crack in the ground, Zhang Yong can directly drill into it.

The Beijing camp that Wang Ziteng invited him to look up before was not like this. At that time, the soldiers in the Beijing camp were majestic, and this kind of charge formation made people excited.

Now walking on the city wall, I didn't even learn the basics of drawing a bow and archery, and I felt embarrassed just thinking about it.

"Jia Jue!"

"Tell me what's going on!!"

Cheng Guogong almost yelled at Jia Jue.

It seems that he was cheated by Jia Jue, and he was the kind who couldn't get up after a wave.

With Zhang Yong taking the lead, all the officials in Longshou Palace pointed their finger at Jia Jue.

At this time, the civil servants and generals showed an unusual unity, one after another pointed their spears at Jia Jue and began to rant wildly.

Almost smoked the Jia family's ancestors.

But Jia Jue who was standing there was very calm, he just straightened his sleeves slightly, and said:

"My lords, it's not without the slightest hope. As long as the Xiongnu are repelled, everyone here will be a hero.

"Maybe His Majesty is excited, and it's not impossible to reward a duke of the country. Then you will get benefits, don't forget me."

Hearing this, Zheng Shan rolled his eyes subconsciously.

This yellow-mouthed kid really can talk, and he is already at the critical point of life and death, yet he still wants to make meritorious service.

Hades really hanged himself, thinking that his death was a bit slow.

Seeing Jia Jue talking about this, Emperor Longzheng said just right:

"My dear ones, as long as we get through this difficult time, everyone present here will be meritorious officials, and you will be promoted to a higher position."

Hearing the old and the young in front of him singing the oboe, Zheng Shan was so angry that he didn't speak.

It's true that the two of them stood talking without back pain. Jia Jue is a marquis, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about the city wall.

After arguing for another half an hour in Longshou Palace, the crowd dispersed again.

Back in Ningguo Mansion, it was quiet, as long as there were a few people standing guard in the dark, this was Jia Jue's special order.

After Jia Jue's two years of management, the entire Ningguo Mansion has been made into a monolith by him. Even if Jin Yiwei infiltrates, it still needs Jia Jue's consent.

He disagreed, Jin Yiwei had no chance at all.

When I came to the tunnel, I saw a few sisters looking at me worriedly, and asking how the war outside was going.

Jia Jue answered everything with a smile.

After bringing many sisters to Ning 3.6's mansion, he ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of delicious dishes. Everyone had a happy meal and had a lot of fun before Jia Jue finally rested.

Going to the room and opening the system warehouse, Jia Jue carefully took out dozens of cannons in red.

This is the system reward I signed in two years ago, which is equivalent to an enhanced version of the Shenchao cannon, which is powerful.

Previously, Jia Jue was afraid that Emperor Longzheng would be jealous, so since he got this reward, he has never used it.

This time when the Xiongnu attacked, he remembered that there was such a thing in the system warehouse, just to try its power.

Putting the cannons in the courtyard, Jia Jue ordered Xu Chu and others to pull them up the tower early the next morning.

The ferocious muzzles of the cannons in red were facing the outside of the city wall. Cheng Guogong Zhang Yong saw that Jia Jue had such a thing, and his eyes were filled with excitement.

With the red cannon, it is estimated that it can last for a few more days.

Chapter 313 Emperor Longzheng's Suspicion of the Red Cannon

Looking at the red-clothed cannon in the yard, Jia Jue felt boundless pride. Taking advantage of the night, Jia Jue ordered Xu Chu to take some people to pull the red-clothed cannon downstairs to the city gate.

Shenjing City Tower.

When many soldiers saw these cannons in red, their expressions were extremely excited.

They knew about this big killer, but they never thought that Shenchao would have such a good thing.

"My lord, with these cannons, we don't have to be afraid of those barbarians anymore."

A few Beijing soldiers shouted at Jia Jue boldly.

The red-clothed cannon was pulled up to the city tower with the joint efforts of all the people. Cheng Guogong Zhang Yong rushed over after hearing the news, and was dazed when he saw the dark cannon barrels.

It is impossible to imagine where Jia Jue got this thing.

"Jia Jue, Your Majesty took this out of the warehouse?"

Zhang Yong asked Jia Jue.

They naturally knew the relationship between Jia Jue and Emperor Longzheng, and subconsciously guessed that Emperor Longzheng took it out of the warehouse.

It's just that he can't guarantee whether these old things can be used.

Some of the red-clothed cannons of the Shen Dynasty were left over from the Taizu period, and it has been a hundred years since now.

Hearing Zhang Yong's words, Jia Jue smiled slightly and said:

"Your Excellency, you can rest assured that these are not those old and second-hand goods in the warehouse, but the latest cannons I got, and this is an improved cannon, which is more powerful than the cannons of Taizu's time."

This.

Zhang Yong was a little stunned, Jia Jue actually made firearms privately?

This is a serious crime of losing his head, how dare he do it! !

Zhang Yong let out a roar! !

"Jia Jue, how dare you make weapons privately!"

"I will tell His Majesty to punish you!"

Seeing Zhang Yong's urgency, Jia Jue sneered and said:

"My lord, now that the soldiers are approaching the city, even if they want to punish me, we have to wait until the Xiongnu are defeated."

Tomorrow, I will personally go to the palace to report to His Majesty about the red-clothed cannon, I believe he can understand.

After speaking, he turned and walked down the tower.

Seeing Jia Jue's arrogant appearance, Zhang Yong's face turned blue and purple. He was really angry at Jia Jue's arrogant and unreasonable appearance.

At this time, it was unexpected that Jia Jue would be so arrogant.

But turning around and looking at the bright lights outside Shenjing City, Zhang Yong just sighed slightly and didn't speak.

He has received reports from today's scouts that the Huns are making siege weapons day and night, and tomorrow's guards will be even more difficult to fight.

With the help of these red cannons, the arrogance of the Huns may be severely killed.

After returning to Ningguo Mansion, Jia Jue didn't go to sleep immediately, but Xiao Hong, who was serving beside her, was so sleepy that she couldn't keep her eyes open.

Seeing Xiao Hong like this, Jia Jue asked her to rest first.

Carefully estimate that it will take a while to sleep.

He was thinking carefully about his plans for the future, and Jia Jue didn't know whether Shenjing would be able to hold on.

If he really couldn't keep it, he would have to find a way out for himself.

Under the Ningguo Mansion, there is a tunnel leading to the outside of the city. There is no need to worry about the escape route of many sisters.

The most worrying thing now is that his red-clothed cannon has been exposed, if it arouses Emperor Longzheng's fear, it will not be worth the candle.

Taking out the cannon in red is really a helpless move, the only way 480 now is to defend the city of Shenjing.

If the city of Shenjing is destroyed by the Huns, there will be no hope at all.

He can only lead many sisters to live a life of escape. Jia Jue doesn't want to experience this special feeling.

Early the next morning, Emperor Longzheng received Dai Quan's report that Jia Jue got some red cannons from somewhere and pulled them to the tower.

Hearing this news, Emperor Longzheng was silent for a while.

Unexpectedly, Jia Jue would have such a hole card. There are more than a dozen red cannons hidden in Shenjing City, which can directly threaten his personal safety.

After thinking about it for a while, Emperor Longzheng was completely silent. It was the Xiongnu coming to the city right now, and he didn't want to cause more trouble.

If Jia Jue is accused at this time, it will cause internal chaos instead, which is not worth the candle.
