Murong Hao left the camp and asked the cavalry waiting at the side.

"Tieqi, have you brought Nanmen Zhou with you?"

"Go back to Your Highness. He is already locked in the prison car."

"Okay, let's go." Murong Hao rode his horse to the front of the army.

Arriving in front of the army, Nanmen Zhou met Murong Hao.

"Murong Hao, what do you want to do? Why are you sending troops? Doesn't my father agree to change the city?" Nanmen Zhou said in a panic when he saw Murong Hao leading a dark army of 10 people.

"Yes, I don't agree, so I will take you to see the power of this general." Murong Hao glanced sideways at Nanmen Zhou and picked up his long sword.

"Army, let's go!" Murong Hao first had to deal with the 10 Beimu soldiers guarding the front of their army.

"Murong Hao, we can still talk!"

Nanmen Zhou didn't know what his father and Murong Hao were talking about. It seemed that they had not reached an agreement. Otherwise, Murong Hao cherished his soldiers the most, so why would he start a war first? His status in his father's heart was not as good as that. The third prince Nanmentai can only play with pen and ink.

After only walking a few miles, they arrived at Beimu Kingdom stationed on the grassland not far from Langu City.

Early in the morning, General Beimuyou received the emperor's order, and Prince Dongsheng personally took command to advance towards them. He had already been prepared to meet the enemy.

If it were before, he thought he might be able to block Murong Hao's way forward, but after seeing the powerful bombs from Dongsheng Kingdom that day, he now has lingering fears.

The 10 troops of the two armies stopped a few hundred meters apart.

Murong Hao spoke.

"General You, are you sure you want to take your soldiers to suffer from the bomb?"

"I have been ordered to prevent you from going north. What are you afraid of bombs?" General You is now the commander of the First Army. He was ordered by the emperor to intercept Murong Hao here. He cannot disobey the order.

"Okay, let's get started." Murong Hao waved his long sword, and the gunpowder soldiers behind him understood and began to load the bombs on the catapults.

Murong Hao wanted to lead these 10 soldiers to attack Wuling City. He would not let his soldiers suffer any harm. Explosives were the best weapon.

"Murong Hao, if you have the ability to come and fight a serious battle with us, what does it matter if you use bombs?" General You was extremely flustered when he saw the explosives.

"Having bombs is a skill, isn't it? General You?" Murong Hao looked at the enemy commander in the distance and sneered.

"Arrow soldiers form a formation and stop them from coming forward!" Murong Hao issued the order again.

I saw the archers and shield soldiers coming forward together. The shield soldiers used their shields to build a high wall. The archers were spaced between the shield soldiers, surrounding the 10 army behind.

"Fire!"

Murong Hao gave an order, and the slingers and gunpowder soldiers cooperated. The bombs were ignited and began to be thrown at the enemy square.

For a time, gunpowder smoke was everywhere in the army of Beimu Kingdom, and the deafening sound of bombs resounded through the sky.

"Murong Hao, you madman, stop." Nan Menzhou saw his soldiers being blown to pieces in the prison car, with a strong murderous look in his eyes.

"I just gave General You a chance. If he doesn't withdraw his troops, I can't blame me." Murong Hao glanced at Nanmen Zhou coldly and found that the enemy's cavalry began to advance.

"Archers, speed up the shooting of arrows! Gunpowder soldiers, speed up throwing bombs." Murong Hao gave another order.

The cavalry and infantry brought by Murong Hao did not move, and kept waiting for Murong Hao's military order. However, they waited for a long time and did not receive the order to step forward. They just watched the enemy troops on the other side being bombed and fleeing in all directions.

"General You, withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops!" Nan Menzhou roared with scarlet eyes when he saw his soldiers were killed and burned by the explosion in the prison car.

Unfortunately, the bombs were too loud and the two armies were far apart. General You couldn't hear the sound of his Nanmen boat.

"Murong Hao, let me out. No matter what, we in Beimu Kingdom have been on good terms with you before. The last time I went to the capital to pay tribute and seek marriage, this king was sincere. You let me out, and I will ask General You to withdraw his troops. The soldiers are innocent, they cannot be killed innocently." Nan Menzhou's voice was hoarse, with prayer in his words.

Murong Hao thought for a moment and looked at the numerous dead and wounded Beimu soldiers in front of him. Murong Hao waved his long sword and signaled the gunpowder soldiers to stop.

He also wanted to capture Wuling City and kill too many people. In the future, the people of Wuling City may not necessarily submit to the management of Dongsheng people.

"Push him out." With an order, several soldiers pushed Nanmen Zhou's prison car outside the shield array.

"General You, withdraw the troops. We can't defeat their bombs, and we can't let the soldiers die in vain." Nanmenzhou roared with all the strength in his body.

After the bombs stopped, General You recovered from his panic this time. He heard the roar of Nanmen Zhou and looked towards Murong Hao's shield array.

Their Second Highness was seen kneeling in the prison car, giving him orders.

"Your Highness, the emperor asked the general to stop Murong Hao's path. Are you sure you want to disobey the emperor's order?"

General You was in a dilemma. He also understood that if he persisted, the 10-strong army would be wiped out by Murong Hao's gunpowder soldiers in an instant. However, with the emperor's life in hand, he did not dare to make a random decision to withdraw his troops.

"I am the commander of the 10-strong army. Listen to me. When you go back, tell your father that it was my Nanmenzhou decision."

Nanmenzhou risked his life. His father may have only heard about the power of bombs and not seen them with his own eyes. Now that he saw the power of bombs with his own eyes, he could not let these innocent soldiers be blown up alive in front of his eyes.

With Nanmenzhou's military order, General You no longer had any worries and issued the order.

"Withdraw all troops and retreat to Wuling City!"

After giving the order, all the soldiers from Beimu Kingdom retreated one after another. They looked at the bodies that were blown to pieces on the ground. They were extremely afraid of the bombs from Dongsheng Kingdom, and they just hoped that there would be no more wars with Dongsheng Kingdom in the future.

Murong Hao ordered as he watched Beimu's troops surveying the army.

"The whole army advances and arrives at Wuling City before dusk."

In this way, Beimu's soldiers retreated to Wuling City, while Dongsheng's soldiers advanced.

There is still a certain distance from Lan Ancient City to Wuling City. Murong Hao calculated very accurately. Before sunset, 10 troops arrived at the south gate of Wuling City.

As expected, it is exactly as shown on the map. Wuling City is not square like other cities. Its city is in the shape of a straight line, so the city walls are extremely long and lined up. Visually, the city walls are more than 20 miles long.

There are three city gates alone, but one of the main gates is particularly large.

Murong Hao looked at the tower with a military telescope and saw a burly, bearded general who looked to be about forty years old.

Yesterday, he received news that the general guarding the main gate of Wuling City was General Che Ji, the famous national protector general of Beimu Kingdom.

Lin Yunxi followed Murong Hao without saying a word. When she saw General Che Ji, she was shocked. How could this general look so similar to Zhang Fei described in "Three Kingdoms"? It was simply the image of Zhang Fei in her mind.

Che Ji watched Murong Hao's 10 troops running after General You's retreating soldiers from a distance on the city tower. He glared at General You who fled back.

"General You, I have an army of 10, and you have an army of 10. Now you only bring back 8. How did you become the general of Zhenxi?" Che Ji looked at General You with a loud voice and a look of disdain.

Che Ji's military rank is higher than that of General You. General You looked helpless and said respectfully.

"General Che, Murong Hao has a bomb in his hand that can kill many people instantly. Our soldiers were killed by that extremely powerful bomb. We cannot underestimate the enemy."

General You was so frightened by the bomb that he broke out in a cold sweat. The explosion of the bomb was still ringing in his ears. He might not be able to sleep tonight when he thought of the countless soldiers who had been blown away.
