Mingzhou.

Mingyuan City.

Just as Hu Ka, the leader of the black guards, secretly sneaked into Qingshan City with his men, Zhai Mo, the governor of the Imperial City, also sneaked into Mingyuan City with his men. The two of them had the same goal, and they both came for the bomb. .

Mingyuan City is now the headquarters of the Northern Army in Dayan Town. Cheng Wuwei, the general of Zhenbei City, is personally guarding the city. The reason why Zhai Mo chose to come to Mingyuan City is because there is an Imperial City Secretary among the imperial guards in Mingyuan City. The spy planted in.

After Xia Yuan became the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, he ordered the Zhao Clan Guards, the predecessor of the Imperial City Division, to place a large number of spies in various important departments of Dayan. Yu Qiang, who was next to Lin Feng, was one of the imperial guards arranged by Xia Yuan at that time.

The next day, Zhai Mo pretended to be a businessman selling antique calligraphy and paintings, set up a stall on the street outside the Royal Forest Army camp, and sent an emergency contact code to Xu En in the military camp.

Next, Zhai Mo and his men set up a stall outside the military camp for three days, but unfortunately no one came to join them.

"Lord Du Shi, it's been three full days, and this Xu En still hasn't come to join us. Could it be that he died in the Battle of Shaoshan?"

Zhai Mo also thought of this possibility. After all, swords have no eyes on the battlefield. It is very possible that Xu En died on the battlefield. If that were the case, things would be in trouble.

"Let's insist on it for two more days. If Xu En still doesn't come to join us, then it's probably the end of the road. Then we'll start the second plan."

"Yes, Lord Toshi!"

At this moment, a young officer suddenly walked out of the Royal Guards Camp. The officer looked around and then went directly to the stall across the street, picked up a calligraphy and painting and started reading.

Zhai Mo had never met Xu En, so when he saw an officer from the Royal Forest Army approaching, he immediately came up to talk to him, "Sir, all the calligraphy and paintings in the stall are by famous artists. If you buy them back, they will definitely appreciate in value within a few years." "

Xu En put down the calligraphy and painting in his hand and pointed at a calligraphy and painting hanging behind the stall, "Boss, how do you sell that calligraphy and painting?"

"Master Jun has a good eye. This picture of plum blossoms and snow is from the hand of Yan Qiyun, the first painter in Dayan. It is one of the few works made by Yan Qiyun before he became famous. It is worth three thousand taels of silver."

"Three thousand taels? You're just a street stall, and you dare to ask for three thousand taels? Are you really going to be a military lord and I'm so illiterate that you can fool me?"

"Master Jun, please calm down. This painting of plum blossoms and snow is the only authentic one in the stall. The price is 3,000 taels without any counter-offering. Otherwise, Master Jun, please look at the other paintings and calligraphy. I'll give you five." How about a discount of ten taels of silver per piece?"

All the codes were correct, and Xu En immediately said: "Xu En, I wonder what I call this lord?"

"The Imperial City Secretary is Zhai Mo."

"Xu En pays homage to the Master of Capital Affairs. The Master summoned his subordinates urgently, but why are they here for the bomb?"

During the past few days of setting up the stall, Zhai Mo had ordered his subordinates to find out clearly that Yan Guo's secret weapon was called a bomb. He immediately nodded, "Yes, the lethality of this bomb is too terrifying. If Yan Jun didn't have the assistance of the bomb, , the outcome of the Battle of Qingzhou is still uncertain.”

"His Majesty has decreed that we, the Imperial City Division, should get this bomb at all costs and bring it back to the country. Xu En, do you have a way to get this bomb?"

Xu En smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sir Du Shi. I am the captain of the Royal Forest Army who is responsible for guarding the bomb warehouse. After seeing the terrifying destructive power of bombs on the battlefield, I have long been determined to get the bomb."

Zhai Mo was overjoyed upon hearing this and looked at Xu En excitedly, "Is this true?"

"Don't worry, Lord Capital. How dare I lie about such a big matter?"

"Then did you ever carry this bomb with you?"

Xu En immediately took out a sachet from his arms and handed it to Zhai Mo, "Master Du Shi, this sachet contains a detailed introduction to the bomb, as well as a small bag of gunpowder for making bombs. As long as we crack the formula of this gunpowder, We can make bombs in large quantities."

Zhai Mo took the sachet with both hands and looked at Xu En with a puzzled look on his face, "Xu En, what is this gunpowder?"

"Lord, let me tell you this, put gunpowder into a closed porcelain jar to make a bomb. The specific instructions are in the sachet. You will know when you go back."

"Um... Lord Toshi, my subordinate has been away from home for three years. I want to return to my country to reunite with my family. I would like to ask for permission from Lord Toshi."

"Xu En, I can't make the decision on your return to China, but don't worry, I will ask the Captain for instructions on your behalf after I return. Based on the achievements you have made now, and with me speaking for you, it shouldn't be a big problem. Just wait here with peace of mind for the notice to return home!"

"Thank you, Lord Capital. If my subordinates can return to the headquarters to serve, I will definitely follow Lord Capital's lead in everything."

Zhai Mo nodded with a smile on his face, "Okay, I'll take care of your return to the headquarters."

"Thank you, sir!"

The task was completed. Xu En was very happy. He reached out and took out a ten-tael banknote from his arms and handed it to Zhai Mo. "Boss, let me buy this one!"

Xu En picked up a calligraphy and painting from the stall, turned around and walked towards the Royal Forest Army camp.

After the task was completed, Feng Gao immediately asked: "Master Du Shi, shall we close the stall and leave the city now?"

Zhai Mo shook his head, "Don't be in a hurry to leave the city. It's only midnight now. Let's close the stall after dark. Let's find a restaurant to have a good drink tonight. Tomorrow, you can bring people to set up a stall here for three days." You can withdraw after that.”

Feng Gao thought about it carefully and immediately understood Zhai Mo's intention, and nodded immediately, "Yes, Sir!"

Early the next morning, Zhai Mo took Xu En's sachet out of the city. After the carriage left Mingyuan City, it headed north towards Tangzhou...

Compared with Zhai Mo's success in Mingyuan City, Huka encountered big troubles in Qingzhou. Facing the dragnet-like search of 20,000 Yan troops, he passed by the mountain search team several times and almost missed it. The traces were exposed.

No, I have to find a way to leave this mountain forest as soon as possible. If I continue like this, I will be caught sooner or later. Huka lay quietly in the grass and began to think urgently about how to deal with it.

Huka suddenly had a flash of inspiration. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is actually the safest place. He immediately turned back and walked back towards Qingshan City.

Early the next morning, Huka walked into Qingshan City again with four bombs and stayed at an inn called Qingsong in the city.

Huka stayed at the Qingsong Inn for three days. After the incident of the missing bomb completely subsided, he left the city and rushed to Fengze County in Qizhou to join his subordinates.

Huka waited for three days in the secret stronghold of Fengze County. He did not wait for any of the three black-clothed guards of Xin Yuan, Wu Rongsuoluo and Wanhu. He knew that the three of them were probably in danger, so he took four The bomb returned northward to Shengtian City.

Huka's feeling was very accurate. Except for him, all the survivors of the Black Guards were captured. The six bombs in the hands of Wu Rong and Solo returned to Li Xunwu's hands.

Huka went south this time under Jin Zhen's orders, and lost a total of three million households and more than a hundred black-clad elites. It was a heavy loss. The only good thing was that the task assigned to him by Jin Zhen was successfully completed.
