Chapter 242

Looking at Nan Yanxi's expression, Li Shuwan smiled and crossed her arms: "Brother Yan, what do you mean...?"

"It's not interesting, I want to say...if you have nothing good to go, just come with us."

Nan Yanxi smiled and said: "After you have dealt with the little trouble here, would you like to go to Nanqiao County and help me hunt for treasure?"

"Okay, as long as Brother Yan trusts me, I have no problem." Li Shuwan promised.

"But...Brother Yan can't protect himself now, right?"

"Although Brother Yan, His Highness's personal eunuch, has transformed into His Highness the Fifth Prince, I still can't think of any clever tricks you can use to break the situation."

"There are only 20,000 remaining soldiers around us, and they are still blocked in this dead place. We can't advance and we can't retreat."

Li Shuwan looked at Nan Yanxi with a half-smile: "If I guess correctly, they will take action as soon as tomorrow, right?"

"That's right." Nan Yanxi did not hide anything: "In fact, the situation is worse than you guessed."

"The Dragon Tooth Islands and Black Flood Dragon Island on the east coast should have been captured by Dayan."

"If nothing else happens, Yan Jun will arrive in the next two days."

"When the time comes, when we are united with Nan Yuexi's troops, my 20,000 remnant troops will be absolutely unable to withstand them."

"Then...then you still call it a little trouble!"

After listening to his introduction, Li Shuwan became even more anxious: "How about... you'd better run away by yourself, it's better than being a prisoner, right?"

Nan Yanxi smiled and shook her head, her tone full of confidence: "Don't worry, I say it's a small trouble, it's a small trouble."

"Just tell me whether you want to come with me or not."

"Uh..." Li Shuwan couldn't help rolling her eyes: "Okay... I'll go with you for now."

"But we have something to say first. If things go wrong, don't blame me for being unloyal and running away."

"Hahaha... Don't worry!" Nan Yanxi looked enigmatic: "The mountain man has his own clever plan!"

...

In the Chinese army's large tent, several people were discussing a breakout plan.

The current situation is really bad. Several people have discussed several methods, but they all feel that they are not ideal.

After all, our 20,000 troops are currently at a disadvantage in terms of numbers and morale.

Food and grass cannot be replenished. If it goes on any longer without being beaten by others, he will starve to death first.

After discussing for a long time without any success, Mo Yunxi and Mo Qingyan couldn't help but start whispering about Nan Yanxi.

This guy, how long does it take to be polite to others?

Now it seems that life or death is at stake, so there is no need to worry.

While thinking about it, Nan Yanxi strolled in.

He looked around, smiled at this kind of person and said, "Look... who is this person?"

After speaking, Li Shuwan, who turned aside and took off her hijab, timidly walked in, first bowing to the other people one by one.

Finally, he came to Mo Yunxi, who was disguised as a woman, and saluted: "See you, Your Highness."

"Sir? It's you?" Mo Yunxi and everyone in the tent were all surprised.

Unexpectedly, the person who saved Nangong Wenjian and the others turned out to be that kind-hearted noble man.

Nan Yanxi explained her identity to everyone with a smile and stated her future plans.

Everyone suddenly realized this, and Mo Yunxi laughed: "I wonder why there are still people willing to enter the palace and become concubines at this time."

"So that's it, haha... I didn't expect that this guy would get in first."

"It doesn't matter, you will be one of your own from now on!"

As he spoke, he turned his head and stared at Nan Yanxi: "Look at what you mean...why are you not worried at all?"

"Tell me...what are your plans?"

After hearing what she said, Nan Yanxi knew that there was no point in hiding it any longer.

He touched his nose and smiled: "Actually, I have been prepared for this incident."

"Well...it doesn't really count. It's just a coincidence that I'm long."

"Didn't we demonstrate it on the sand table a few days ago? If Dayan takes action, he will definitely not make a fuss."

"The Lieyang County area in the central part will definitely be a strategic breakthrough for them."

"So, with the attitude of being on guard against others, I made arrangements in advance."

"A total of 6,000 people from the Baihu Camp who are already in the South China Sea and the Qinglong Camp who are staying in Qinglian Mountain will be transferred to the Lieyang County area."

"He also asked the King of Zhenxi to mobilize 20,000 elite sea wolf troops to cooperate with the local defenders in defense."

"The current number of defenders in Lieyang County is close to 40,000."

"and..."

Nan Yanxi chuckled: "I have deployed eighty red cannons and two hundred furlong rapid-fire cannons in the Harbor City of Lieyang County."

"I've studied the terrain, and that coast is the only place they can land."

"This time, I guarantee that they will never come back, hehehehe..."

After saying that, Nan Yanxi looked proud, holding her chest and smiling evilly, fully expecting everyone's praise.

However, the praise did not come, but Mo Yunxi's slap came: "I asked you to say now! Now!"

"We're all about to burp our butts, why are you having so much fun here!"

"Uh... don't worry..."

Rubbing the back of her head with some sadness, Nan Yanxi continued: "Isn't this what I haven't finished yet?"

"We all know that once Dayan takes action, it will definitely be a small move."

"The army that the Feng family can control far exceeds that of our direct troops, so I wrote to my adoptive father in advance."

"The two full-member firearms battalions of Zhuque Xuanwu have been transferred over."

"We also brought 150 artillery pieces of various types to deal with those short-lived ghosts steadily!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was filled with admiration. Mo Yunxi touched his chin and looked at him with interest: "Tsk, tsk, tsk..."

"Nan Yanxi, Nan Yanxi...you kid, do you even want to spare us? Why don't I know about this?"

"Hehe... Well... this is a matter of life and death for us, so we have to treat it with caution."

"It's not that I don't trust everyone, it's just that the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the safer it is."

Nan Yanxi rubbed her hands with a smile: "Look, if we had told you in advance, wouldn't we be in trouble this time?"

"Tch..." Mo Yunxi waved his hand relentlessly: "Forget it, I'll spare you."

Then he was a little worried and said: "But...even if they have all the firearms and hundreds of artillery pieces, they are only 6,000 people. Are you so confident?"

"Of course, you haven't seen the true power of that thing yet! I'm sure your jaw will drop when the time comes!"

Nan Yanxi was full of confidence and patted her chest confidently: "Of course, just in case."

"Master, I have also dispatched five new warships and twenty modified warships!"

Nan Yanxi proudly introduced: "The new warship was designed by me, who hired shipbuilding experts from both the military and civilian circles with high salaries, and collaborated with those foreigners."

"Thirty-five feet long, ten feet wide, with two floors above and below."

"Two red cannons and four French cannons are installed at the bow of the ship."

"One red-coat cannon and two Franchise guns are installed at the stern of the ship."

"But the terrifying part of its combat power is that it is equipped with twenty furlong cannons on both sides of the ship and on both sides of the upper deck."

"Each side of the lower level is equipped with twenty red-coated cannons and forty improved Ying Yang cannons."

"The front and rear decks are each equipped with eight new Tiger Guns. There are one hundred sailors on board, all of whom are new-style firecrackers."

"To put it bluntly, with this new type of warship of mine, there is no problem if one is equal to ten."

After saying that, Nan Yanxi paused and looked at the stunned people with pride: "Don't worry, it's not over yet."

"Although the new warships are powerful, they are cumbersome to manufacture and very slow."

"So, a long time ago, I asked the King of Zhenxi and the Governor of Yuzhou for some old warships with laid keels for modification."

"Twenty ships have now been completed. These modified warships are twenty feet long, seven feet wide, and have a single-layer artillery deck."

"One red-coat gun on the bow, two French guns, and two French guns on the stern."

"Both sides of the ship are equipped with eight red-coated cannons, twelve French cannons, and twenty Yingyang small cannons."

"Each of the front and rear decks is equipped with four Tiger Cannons and sixty sailors, all of whom are also equipped with new firecrackers."

"Moreover, these artillery pieces have been upgraded and modified by our firearms manufacturing bureau. Their power and performance are more sophisticated than the first drawings I produced."

"If nothing else happens...they will arrive tonight!"

Nan Yanxi finished speaking in one breath, and there was a sudden silence in the tent. Mo Yunxi slightly extended his thumb to him.

"Although I have never seen your new battleship, it sounds very powerful."
