When Hua Mulan Met Zhu Yingtai

When it comes to wars, Hua Mulan rarely makes mistakes, and this time is no exception.It's just that this time is quite different from what she expected.

Because Xiongcheng Kuaiji did not stick to the third day, not even one day.To be precise, only one round of the stone cannon was guarded, less than two quarters of an hour before and after.

Zhu Yingtai didn't recover until the flag was hoisted on the top of the city.

"Zhongfu, this... is this going down?"

As soon as Hua Mulan waved her hand, Jiang Hua led someone forward to contact her.

"If they don't surrender, they will have to be smashed to pieces by stone cannons. When the city is flattened, they will have to face Jiang Hua's charge. It's a pity that there are not enough arrows recently, otherwise it wouldn't be such a trouble." Hua Mulan shook The horsewhip pointed at the smashed city wall and laughed.

Zhu Yingtai still couldn't believe it: "How can this stone cannon be so powerful? This Kuaiji City was... back then... Forget it, anyway, I didn't see it with my own eyes. I really don't believe that there is such a sharp weapon in this world. Smash this city of Kuaijijian into pits and pits."

Hua Mulan was immersed in the joy of entering Zhu Yingtai's hometown at this time, and she didn't think about what she said: "There are many things you don't know about Linshen."

Zhu Yingtai's face darkened when she heard that: "Are there many things I don't know? Zhong Fu, do you still have something to hide from me?"

Out of her intuition of danger, Hua Mulan felt chills running down her spine when she heard this sentence, and she reacted extremely quickly: "I'm just talking about the sharp weapon of the country, don't show it to others easily."

"This stone cannon was made by the drawings left by Empress Xiaosu back then. Its projectile range is [-] paces. Its stone bullets can destroy mountains and rivers. It is a pity that Empress Xiaosu was jealous of Gao Tian. This stone cannon was only half-made before it died. Although there are blueprints for the steps, but because there is no amazing and talented person like Empress Xiaosu, the remaining half has not been completed for a long time."

"Then what happened afterwards?" Zhu Yingtai took the flag-lowering inspection handed by her personal guard, but she refused to miss this story.

"Later, we always thought about how to get the Chu army out of the tortoise shell, so that these people would not run around like gophers. So we had to work hard on this stone cannon, and gathered the hard work of two generations of craftsmen. The stone cannon was made a year ago, and it is now in use."

"Zhongfu, when will we accept the surrender?"

"Sooner or later, let's take over now."

"Now?"

"I can't help it. If we don't hurry up, the Kuaiji prefect sent by the court will arrive soon. Is it possible that the prefect will accompany us to eat sand?"

Zhu Yingtai laughed out loud, which was also a joy.Because Hua Mulan attacked the city and plundered the land too fast, she directly dropped a large part of the other two armies, causing the court to make an exception for Hua Mulan's army, and the officials sent were always a little faster than the army's progress.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a joke if the city was taken down but there were no officials close to the people to care for the people?You must know that Hua Mulan's background is not as strong as the others, and she has enough staff to act as an acting county magistrate for a while.

If Hua Mulan's soldiers are going to be officials close to the people, it's better to kill these people alive.So the current situation is that Hua Mulan is attacking the city crazily in the front, and the people behind are beaten like dogs, frantically occupying their own sphere of influence.

Fortunately, Hua Mulan doesn't care about it now, she just thinks of finishing the battle and returning to the field, and she can't see the little tricks of the people behind.After all, the conquered cities are easier to manage. Surrendered cities like this are delicious wild chestnuts inside.The clan forces are deeply rooted, and if one is not careful, the whole game will be lost.

"Okay, Yi Zhongfu, let's enter the city immediately, lest our unknown prefect of Kuaiji come and have no place to stay."

The current eunuch of the Chu Dynasty in Kuaiji, surnamed Ma, was named Wencai. When he heard the news, he immediately went out of the city to ask for his surrender.

Hua Mulan took over the tiger talisman representing the highest military power from Ma Taishou, and handed over the prefect's seal to Zhu Yingtai.

When Zhu Yingtai took the seal, her face suddenly turned pale, and she almost couldn't stand still.

Seeing that things were not going well, Hua Mulan supported Zhu Yingtai: "Linshen, how are you? What's wrong? Do you want to ask Sanniang to have a look?"

Zhu Yingtai pushed Hua Mulan away: "I'm fine, let's finish the surrender ceremony first, don't make any trouble."

Hua Mulan also clearly differentiated the priorities and knew what to do now, so she suppressed her anxiety and watched from the sidelines.Otherwise, if something goes wrong in this surrender ceremony, there will probably be some hot-headed rotten scholars who refuse to surrender on the grounds of etiquette and turn against the water again.

After getting on the horse and entering the city, Zhu Yingtai's abnormal condition disappeared again.

Hua Mulan reined in the horse, turned half of her body and asked Zhu Yingtai, "Linshen, are you feeling better?"

Zhu Yingtai hesitated for a while: "I'm a doctor, it's okay. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just the strangeness of this illness. When I saw the prefect surnamed Ma, my heart beat violently. The blood all over my body rushed to my brain, and it almost burst. Fortunately, the coolness of this jade pendant kept me sane. I have passed this test." Zhu Yingtai said while taking out the jade pendant that had not left her body since the Lantern Festival.

"I didn't expect this jade pendant to have such a use. According to Buddhism, fate is cause and effect. The prefect surnamed Ma can cause you to react like this. Presumably it should be because of your fate with Linshen. I don't know if it is good." It's bad..."

"If it's a bad fate, Zhong Fu, are you going to find fault with him and kill him?"

Hua Mulan raised her whip indifferently: "I really intend to do this."

Before Zhu Yingtai had time to say anything, Hua Mulan continued, "However, this kind of person who is destined to lose power should not have anything to do with Linshen, a promising hero like you."

"Looking at Linshen, just analyze it randomly and tell me nonsense. Then Ma Wencai can't move now, and the old prefect died before the new prefect came. It's outrageous."

"Except for power, I can't think of any relationship between that prefect and Linshen you. In this world, most men are bound by power and righteousness, and men and women are bound by marriage."

"It can't be a marriage. Although the magistrate is handsome, he looks much younger than his actual age. You can see his handsome appearance when he was young. But after all, he is almost fifty, and the children may be with each other. Let's grow up together. What kind of marriage can you have with him?" In the past few days, due to multiple happy events, Hua Mulan is in a good mood, and the witty words in her mouth are repeated one after another, and she is so bold that she is so bold as to make fun of Zhu Yingtai.

Unexpectedly, these words hit the sore spot in Zhu Yingtai's heart, and she hid her knuckles, which had turned white from holding the jade pendant, in her sleeves, and Zhu Yingtai asked in a harsh voice, "Zhongfu, I want to go home Let's see, can you?"
