Zhu Yu hardly sees Ah Mo during this time.

He looked for it, but no matter whether he went to the dining hall, Yu Yuan's, or other places in the camp, he didn't see Amo's shadow. The only time he got up early in the morning and vaguely saw the city wall There was a figure who looked like Amo, but when he went up, there was no one there, making Zhu Yu wonder if he was delusional.

Zhu Yu wanted to go over and ask Yu Yuan where Amo went, but Yu Yuan was the commander-in-chief, and he was already too busy to deploy guards and analyze the military situation every day, so it was not easy for Zhu Yu to bother him. It has been three days since Yu Yuan proposed the plan, and it is not known whether Yu Yuan has taken action or not.

Could it be that Amo has gone to investigate where the gun/powder is hidden?Zhu Yu began to regret his indifference to A Mo some time ago. After listening to Yu Yuan's words, Zhu Yu couldn't get angry anymore. Zhu Yu also knew how dangerous it was for him to come here, but he just wanted to prove himself He is no longer the young master before, he can stand by Amo's side to help him, he doesn't want to be the one who is protected.

"I just want to be the one who can stand on my own..." Zhu Yu stood under the city wall, muttering to himself, this tall city wall still has traces of burning after the last time the gunpowder was put in, Zhu Yu touched it with his hands. After touching it, the doubts I had before floated up in my heart.

Zhu Yu heard from Yu Yuan that the rebel army is just an army organized by some small countries who recruited some refugees. It is far inferior to the regular army of Haihuai country. If there is no gun/powder, I am afraid that they would have raised their flags and surrendered long ago.But the formula for this fire/powder is only available in Yunning country, and Yunning is considered one of the big countries anyway, so how could it join forces with these small countries to fight against the powerful Haihuai country?Although the Haihuai country invaded everywhere, it never touched Yun Ning, but Yun Ning's move now, could it be a deliberate provocation?But according to Yunning's national conditions, it should not like force, so why would he do this?

"There must be something strange." Zhu Yu always felt that he had missed some key points, and was about to think about it again, when he heard the horn sounding, two long and two short, it was the signal for the enemy to launch an attack!

"The enemy is attacking the city—" the soldiers on the watchtower shouted, "Quickly inform the general!"

Zhu Yu hurriedly ran to Yu Yuan's tent, Yu Yuan just heard the sound of the horn, put on his armor and rushed out, the two happened to bump into each other, Yu Yuan waved Zhu Yu behind him, and spoke Said, "Go inside and take shelter, don't come out! I'm afraid the fire/powder will hurt people!"

"I'm also your soldier. What's the reason for me hiding behind you when you are defending the city?" Zhu Yu refused Yu Yuan's order and strode to follow, "I want to defend the city with you too!"

"Are you crazy?" Yu Yuan looked at Zhu Yu in disbelief, "What time is it now, are you still losing your temper? If the enemy uses more powerful guns/powder this time than last time, you are very Might die!"

"I just want to see the gun/powder they use. Don't worry, I will take care of myself. I don't need anyone to protect me. Please treat me as a real soldier. I'm not that useless!"

After Zhu Yu finished speaking, he ran directly to the city wall. Yu Yuan shook his head helplessly. The situation was urgent and he had to respond quickly. He had no time to take care of Zhu Yu. He could only hope that Zhu Yu would do what he said, Can take care of himself.

The soldiers in the camp were all mobilized, and the archers set up longbows on the city wall, aiming at the enemy army approaching them outside the city, and dozens of soldiers blocked the gate of the city with pillars to prevent the enemy from breaking in. Everyone is ready to go, ready to fight with their backs.

And Zhu Yu climbed to the watchtower and observed the enemy carefully. It was also the first time for Zhu Yu to face the war directly. It must be a lie to say that he was not afraid, but just now the way Yu Yuan regarded him as a weak person made Zhu Yu angry. Yu Yuan must be made to change his mind, he is not willing to be a person who hides!

"Oops, this time they brought fire/powder again." The soldier beside Zhu Yu said in despair, "I don't know how many people will be injured this time, how can we stop the fire/powder?" ?”

"Can you see it?" Zhu Yu looked at the soldier and asked in surprise, "The enemy army is still far away from us, and you know that they are carrying gunpowder?"

"Yes, you can see that their troops have catapults, and there is a small cart behind the catapult that is carrying a load. The cart obviously can't hold the boulder, so it can only be fire/powder, and the last time they attacked the city they also brought This time, I probably want to repeat the old tricks again, and I don’t know what the general will do.” The soldier said.

Zhu Yu looked at the small cart loaded with gunpowder, and suddenly had an idea, and hurried to look for Yu Yuan.Yu Yuan was setting up his defenses when Zhu Yu grabbed him, "Quick, hurry up and prepare oil and cloth!"

"What are you going to do?" Yu Yuan looked at Zhu Yu inexplicably and asked, "These two are inflammable materials. If the enemy throws gunpowder in, we will be injured!"

"Shouldn't we just throw them out first?" Zhu Yu said eagerly, "Go and prepare quickly, otherwise it will be too late! Trust me!"

Yu Yuan frowned and looked at Zhu Yu, as if thinking about the feasibility of Zhu Yu's words, but finally let go, ordered the soldiers around him to prepare, and then said to Zhu Yu, "Our fire oil can Without their gun/powder being lethal, it can only temporarily delay their attack, which is not a long-term solution.”

"Who said that?" Zhu Yu shook his head and said, "This is a good way to end their siege today, just wait and see!"

The fire oil and cloth were ready soon. Zhu Yu and the soldiers transported the things to the city wall. Zhu Yu asked the archers to soak the cloth in the oil and wrap it around the arrows. Yu Yuan looked at Zhu Yu suspiciously, no Know exactly what he wants to do.

"Trust me?" Zhu Yu looked at Yu Yuan with a firm light in his eyes, "If you think I can trust you, then let me direct."

Yu Yuan looked at the enemy army under the city wall, then turned his gaze back to Zhu Yu, and finally nodded.

"Look carefully, when the small car behind the catapult comes into range, light the arrow and shoot at the car!" Seeing that Yu Yuan allowed himself to command, Zhu Yu's face was full of excitement, and he shouted, " That car is full of gunpowder, it will explode when it encounters fire, let them taste what we experienced last time!"

These words greatly encouraged the soldiers present. The tragedy of the gunpowder explosion was still vivid in their minds, and the scene of brothers and comrades around them being injured reappeared in front of them. The flames of revenge rose in the soldiers' hearts. Arrows, draw the bowstring fully, aim at the cart under the city wall, just wait for an order, and the burning flaming arrows will shoot over with the anger of the soldiers!

"Fifty steps, thirty steps, twenty steps..." Yu Yuan's eyes were sharp, he accurately calculated the shooting range, and then he raised his hand suddenly, "Let the arrow!"

Only the continuous sound of piercing the air sounded, and hundreds of arrows flew out like raindrops. Although the enemy army prepared shields to resist, the flames still ignited and quickly spread to the vehicle loaded with gunpowder. They turned pale with shock, they didn't expect Yu Yuan and the others to call attention to fire/powder, and quickly ordered the soldiers to put out the fire, but the flames rose against the wind and could not be extinguished at all, and then there was only a loud noise, and the fire/fire on a small car The medicine exploded, and there was a mess all around.

The enemy general saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly asked the soldiers to retreat from the vicinity of the fire/powder. The fire/powder exploded one after another, and many soldiers were injured. Now the enemy army is in a mess, they don’t even want their cars, and the whole team is in a panic. Backed away, for fear that the fire/powder would injure more people later.

At this moment, Zhu Yu and the others on the city wall laughed heartily when they saw this scene. The soldiers cheered loudly and hugged each other and wept. They lived under the shadow of fire/powder for too long during this period This time it can be regarded as a fierce breath, how can they be unhappy!

Zhu Yu was also lifted up by everyone, and everyone was thanking him for his idea. Zhu Yu couldn't bear the enthusiasm for a while, and shouted to come down in fear. Yu Yuan smiled and watched the soldiers make trouble with Zhu Yu, and didn't say anything to stop him , Zhu Yu was very annoyed, but his heart was filled with joy.

The method he thought of actually succeeded. Does this prove that he is not so useless?Although this method was also inspired by Zhu Yu when Yu Yuan proposed to burn the place where the gun/powder is hidden with a rocket last time, it cannot be said that it was completely thought of by himself, but at this critical moment, this method was proposed by himself. Can it be counted as a credit?

If only Ah Mo could see this scene.Zhu Yu looked around, but he didn't see A Mo's figure. He was still a little disappointed. A Mo didn't show up for such a big thing as the enemy's siege of the city. What did he do?

"Look! The enemy army is back!"

A soldier suddenly shouted loudly, interrupting the lively atmosphere, and the air suddenly became tense. Everyone quickly returned to their positions, took up their weapons, and was always on guard.

"Back again?" Yu Yuan frowned and looked down the city wall, only to see that the enemy general who had fled in a hurry just now was riding on a horse, holding a man tied with a rope in his hand.

Because of the height of the city wall, it was impossible to see the appearance of the bound person clearly, but Zhu Yu became inexplicably flustered. Regardless of Yu Yuan's warning, she leaned forward trying to get a better view.

"City people listen!"

The enemy general raised his face and shouted loudly, "I caught your spy. If you want to save his life, just obediently open the city gate and let us in. Otherwise, this kid will die!"

The soldiers on the city wall looked at Yu Yuan one after another. Yu Yuan's face was very ugly. There is only one person who can get out of the city these days, and that is...

"Amo—" Zhu Yu finally saw the man's face clearly, and shouted in panic.
