Red Chamber: After lying down completely, Daiyu fell in love with her

Chapter 314

Thinking of this, Emperor Longzheng waved to the eunuch Dai Quan beside him, saying:

"You don't need to worry about this matter, I will naturally know everything."

Dai Quan was subconsciously taken aback when he heard Emperor Longzheng's words. He originally thought that Emperor Longzheng would be furious about Jia Jue's private possession of firearms, and would even punish Jia Jue for his crime. He didn't expect it to pass so easily?

Dai Quan felt that His Majesty seemed a little strange today, but he couldn't tell what was so strange.

Now that Emperor Longzheng had already spoken, Dai Quan naturally followed his master's instructions.

He nodded slightly and said:

"Everything is done according to your orders."

After bowing, Dai Quan walked out.

After leaving the gate of Longshou Palace, Dai Quan told the leader of Jin Yiwei who was waiting here that there is no need to pursue anything.

Early the next morning, the shouts of the Huns outside Nervous City sounded again.

But this time the defenders on the city wall did not panic at all. The dark muzzle of the red cannon gave them infinite confidence.

And the Huns under the city are even more so.

The crude cloud chariot has already been set up, and there are thick siege logs, which is also their confidence.

The war was about to break out. Looking at the Huns under the city tower, Jia Jue looked normal.

With the help of the cannon in red today, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to hold on for a few days.

But the red cannon, what to do at the moment when the shells run out?

Jia Jue didn't even know that the shells given by the system were not unlimited, only enough for a few days.

If the Xiongnu adopted the tactics of crowds, there would be nothing to do.

After all, there are really not many guards in Shenjing City, and the only thing they can rely on is the tall city walls of Shenjing City.

"Kill! 々ˇ!"

"kill!!!"

With the sound of high-pitched voices, the Huns under the tower began to attack aggressively.

The cavalry in front rushed forward on horseback, and the people behind slowly pushed the ladder cloud cart close to the city wall.

When the Xiongnu approached the city wall, Zhang Yong quickly ordered the soldiers to draw bows and shoot arrows.

Still the same story as yesterday.

It's just that the Huns were already prepared for bows and arrows, and quickly picked up the simple shield in their hands and began to resist.

Looking at the Xiongnu slowly advancing under the tower, Zhang Yong did not hesitate, and loudly ordered the red cannon to prepare.

A deafening sound shot straight into the sky, and the Huns across the grassland heard the sound, thinking it was a punishment from heaven.

They all lowered their heads and knelt down. Seeing such a situation, the defenders on the city wall laughed loudly.

Sure enough, they were a group of barbarians who had never seen the world.

There were a few more sounds of heaven's punishment, and there were screams from under the city wall. For a while, countless Huns were killed and injured.

Seeing such a scene, everyone on the city wall shouted.

But for Jia Jue, he couldn't be happy at all.

This round of salvo has already consumed almost one-fifth of the ammunition, and this is still without the knowledge of the Huns.

If they knew the secret of the red cannon, it is estimated that the shells would be consumed faster.

Under the city wall, Shan Yu, the leader of the Huns, looked at the dark cannons on the city wall, and subconsciously stepped back a little.

Such a powerful thing is naturally known to the well-informed leader of the Huns.

Red Cannon.

The Nine Sides Barracks also has a small amount of this kind of thing, but their power is not at the same level as the power of the red cannons on the upper floor of Shenjing City.

Unexpectedly, there would be such a powerful thing on the upper floor of Shenjing City.

At this moment, Shan Yu regretted attacking Shenjing City directly.

"withdraw troops!"

He gave orders to his subordinates beside him in a solemn tone. It was obvious that there were cannons in red on the city tower, and now was not the best time to attack.

But you still have to think about other ways, otherwise it won't work if it takes so much time.

Thinking of this, Shan Yu's wise eyes began to roll.

Chapter 315 Shan Yu's plan, Jia Jue's retreat arrangement

Looking at the dark red cannon on the city gate, although Shan Yu was surprised, he also had corresponding coping strategies.

I still have a dark game in Shenjing City, and now is the time to use it.

Watching the retreat of the Huns in the city tower of Shenjing, the tense expression on Jia Jue's face finally eased.

Relying on the red cannon, they repelled another wave of Huns' attacks, but they didn't know how many days they could last.

He turned to Cheng Guogong Zhang Yong and asked:

"My lord, when will the reinforcements arrive?"

Hearing Jia Jue's question, Zhang Yong's eyes became sharper.

His eyes stared straight at Jia Jue, wondering what was going on in his mind.

Seeing Zhang Yong's weird behavior, Jia Jue was speechless. What's going on?

Anyway, I am also one of the generals guarding the city of Shenjing this time. How could Zhang Yong look at him with such eyes?

Although 480 has many questions in his heart, Jia Jue understands that some things cannot be asked at this time.

In the end, he could only laugh helplessly and said:

"Since it's inconvenient for the Duke to tell, I simply won't ask."

Hearing Jia Jue's words, Zhang Yong's expression softened a little.

It's just that his eyes are still scanning the other generals around him, as if he wants to see them clearly.

Is it?

Seeing Zhang Yong's weird behavior, a bold guess arose in Jia Jue's mind.

Could it be that there are spies of the Huns among these generals?

Thinking about it carefully, it's a little unlikely.

After all, people like gd grew up in the city of Shenjing, and they didn't have the opportunity to come into contact with the Huns.

Maybe I really thought too much.

Just as Jia Jue was about to turn around and leave, he heard Duke Cheng Zhang Yong say in a solemn tone:

"Today's crisis is over, and I hope everyone will continue to work hard. As long as we get through this hurdle, the opportunity to be crowned king and general is at hand."

"Yesterday, the king of Nan'an County sent a secret letter, and the army will return to help in ten days."

When everyone heard this, joy appeared on their faces, which was good news.

As long as they defend for ten days with the power of the red cannons, they can repel the Huns.

But these words stopped in Jia Jue's ears, always feeling impossible.

He knew how far Annan was, even if the cavalry drove day and night, they couldn't reach it in ten days.

The only possibility is that Zhang Yong lied.

As for why Zhang Yong lied, Jia Jue didn't know these things.

late at night.

The Xiongnu Shanyu began to write letters secretly in his tent, and he didn't know where it was passed on.

After an hour, a carrier pigeon flew to the tent of the Huns.

Looking at the contents of the secret letter, Shan Yu burst out laughing.

It turns out that the red-clothed cannon is just for show, but there are not many shells, and they are more for deterrent.

With this important information, he can attack the city with confidence tomorrow.

With a general plan in mind, Shan Yu began to order his subordinates to come and deploy tomorrow's siege plan.

When Jia Jue returned to Ningguo Mansion, he always felt a deep sense of uneasiness enveloped him. For some reason, he felt that something big might happen tomorrow.

Changing hands called Qingniao, he began to arrange tomorrow's affairs, just in case, ordered Qingniao to let many sisters wait in the tunnel in Ningguo Mansion tomorrow, and after receiving his signal, Qingniao led the sisters to retreat immediately.

Qingniao heard Jia Jue's strange order and looked at Jia Jue with strange eyes.

Ever since I was brought into this world by Jia Jue, I have never seen the son so nervous. Could something really happen tomorrow?

But since it was the son's order, the blue bird will naturally carry out as usual.

In the early morning of the second day, the Xiongnu uncharacteristically began to attack the city aggressively, as if accepting their fate and not wanting money.

Jia Jue frowned as he looked at the mad Huns downstairs.

Too bad, he knew that the city of Shenjing was in danger.

Chapter 316 Shenjing City is in Danger, Emperor Longzheng's Panic

Looking at the crazy Huns under the city gate, Zhang Yong's face darkened, and sure enough, what he suspected finally happened.

The information in Shenjing City was still exposed.

There are not many cannonballs in the red cannon, and only a few of their generals and a few ministers of the court know about this matter. It is unexpected that such a confidential matter will be leaked.

The power shown by the red cannon yesterday, as long as the Huns were not fools, they would not have attacked the city so urgently today.

But they just did that today, and even started to attack the city desperately.

It seems that he intends to use resignation to fill the cannon in red. If there are enough shells, Zhang Yong will make sure that they come and go.

But in fact, when Jia Jue pulled the red-clothed cannon, the shells he gave were really not enough.

It is estimated that it is only enough for a few salvos, and the red cannon has no shells, it is just broken copper and iron.

Looking at the Xiongnu who were getting closer to the city wall, Zhang Yong didn't care about other things. He waved his big hand at the city wall, shouted, and said:

"The cannon in red, - fire it for me!!!"

Hearing this, the soldiers on the city wall began to move quickly.

Load 0 shells, ignite, all in one go.

The familiar explosion sounded again, but this time the Huns seemed to be smarter.

When they heard the sound, they began to disperse quickly on horseback, but the red cannon still killed many Huns.

Standing in the distance, Shan Yu looked at the scene below the tower with a strange smile on his face.

It seems that my information is correct, as expected, there are not enough shells for the red cannons in Shenjing City, if there are enough shells, they will probably fire again after finishing this round.

But in the current situation, the red cannon seemed to have misfired and did not continue to fire.

Instead, the soldiers on the city wall began to draw their bows and shoot arrows.

"Hahaha!"

"Little ones, rush for me!!"

"Their cannons are misfiring!!"

Shan Yu was a little excited and gave orders to the Huns in front of him. Hearing the leader's order, most of them rushed forward screaming.
