The earth-shaking changes in the Zhou Kingdom are naturally unknown to outsiders.
But the news that Xiao Feiyu led his army to attack Jingguo finally came out.
The imperial capital of the Qian Kingdom.
Zhao Kang came to Fusi, Beizhen, and after showing his token, no one stopped him.
Uncle Ming saw him and hurriedly came forward, "National Master!"
Looking at this loyal guard of the Cao family, Zhao Kang raised his eyebrows, "What on earth is going on? Do you want me to come here all the way?"
Uncle Ming was also a little suspicious, "I don't know either. The lady said you must come in person."
"Where is she?"
Uncle Ming "Inside."
Zhao Kang glanced at it, then turned around and walked into the lobby, where he saw Cao Bailu walking worriedly in the lobby.
Now that Fengyun Tower is under the management of Jinyi Guards, she is naturally also in Beizhen Fusi.
Seeing Zhao Kang, Cao Bailu hurriedly came over and said, "Something big has happened to the Imperial Master!"
"What happened? I actually scared you like this." Zhao Kang joked.
However, when Cao Bailu spoke next, he was really surprised.
"Jingguo is attacked!"
Zhao Kang was stunned, "What did you say? Jingguo was attacked? Who did you hear about this? Why didn't I know?"
Do Qi and Zhou have the guts to attack Jing at this time?
Are you kidding!
Cao Bailu's beautiful eyes were extremely worried, "The news came back from the spies we sent from Jingguo. It is absolutely true. Now many refugees have fled from Jingguo Guzhou."
Zhao Kang was extremely shocked: "Have you placed someone in Jingguo? Who is the enemy? Zhou or Qi?"
Cao Bailu nodded, hesitated for a moment and then said, "According to the news from our people, it is neither Zhou nor Qi who attacked Jingguo this time. I don't know where they came from."
"This is weird."
Zhao Kang was confused for a moment. If they were not Zhou and Qi, then who were these enemy troops?
At this moment, a guard in royal robes walked in quickly and reported, "National Preceptor, Mr. Cao. Your Majesty invites you!"
The two looked at each other and hurried back to the palace.
As soon as he arrived at the main hall, Zhao Kang saw the man in Tsing Yi whom he had longed for, and hurried forward and said, "Hongxue!"
Ye Hongxue turned around, with a bit of unconcealable fatigue in her brows, trying to figure out the truth of the matter.
She traveled for days without a moment's rest. When she saw Zhao Kang coming, she anxiously asked, "Zhao Kang, have you ever given gunpowder to anyone else?"
"gunpowder?"
Zhao Kang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized that the matter was not simple, "Don't worry, just speak slowly."
At that moment, Ye Hongxue quickly told Jing Guo's situation in a short story and clarified everything. Zhao Kang was a little unbelievable.
New enemies have appeared, and they also have gunpowder!
"Gunpowder, apart from us, I did not sell it to anyone else. Hongxue, are you sure the enemy used gunpowder?"
Ye Hongxue paused and said with some uncertainty, "I have not had direct contact with the enemy, but the news came from my former subordinate Nalancai. She will never admit her mistake after seeing gunpowder!"
Hearing what Ye Hongxue said, Zhao Kang understood that the matter was serious.
This group of enemies who appeared out of nowhere actually had gunpowder, but they didn't know it was the same as the black powder they made.
Or higher grade nitroglycerin and yellow gunpowder.
If it is the latter
This compound is terrible!
The world is full of wonders, and the course of history is always surprising. It is not impossible that someone other than him can create explosives.
Her Majesty the Empress on the side saw Zhao Kang frowning, and Ye Hongxue was filled with worry.
I didn’t know what to do, so I could only ask, “Hongxue, what’s the current situation of the war in Jingguo? Do we need to send troops from Qianguo?”
Ye Hongxue's expression softened and she thanked him softly, "When I left Jingguo, Guzhou was almost half occupied. The most important thing is that the enemy's possession of gunpowder caused great damage to our army and made it impossible to hold on to the city."
"Zhao Kang, you can make gunpowder, so is there any good way to deal with gunpowder?"
Zhao Kang raised his head, "The explosion of gunpowder mainly depends on the open flame and the container containing the gunpowder. Water is its nemesis. But the key now is."
Zhao Kang paused, "We don't know to what extent the other party has used gunpowder."
"What do you mean?" Cao Bailu was a little confused. Although she didn't know what gunpowder was, she knew from the looks on the three people's faces that it was probably very powerful.
Zhao Kang explained, "There are many ways to use gunpowder. For example, we used to put it in a container and detonate it, or make a soil bomb. These require igniting the fuse to cause the gunpowder to explode."
"But there are other ways, such as time bombs, landmines, grenades, etc. If the enemy uses these gunpowders, it will be terrible. At the current military level of various countries, there is absolutely no way to deal with these things."
Zhao Kang's eyes darkened as he spoke, "I can't find any clues just by guessing here. Hongxue, please prepare yourself. I will go back to Jingguo with you to see what kind of gunpowder these barbarians you call are using."
Hearing that Zhao Kang was going to Jingguo, Ye Hongxue was delighted. Xiao Linglong on the side said hurriedly, "I'll have someone prepare the horse."
The servants prepared the horses and looked at Zhao Kang. Xiao Linglong said worriedly, "Be careful."
"Don't worry, I'm just going to see if I can find a way to deal with it. Jing Guo has helped us so much before, we can't just sit idly by and do nothing." Zhao Kang said.
Xiao Linglong nodded, "I understand. By the way, do you think you should transport a few of the cast cannons to Jingguo first?"
The cannons made by Zhao Kang and the others were very heavy, weighing more than 500 kilograms each. It was not easy to send them to Jingguo.
Zhao Kang thought for a moment, "Okay, let's pull ten gates first, and send a thousand shells. We must hurry up. The enemy has gunpowder, and Jingguo's army may not be able to hold on for long."
Xiao Linglong responded, "I understand."
Seeing Zhao Kang and Ye Hongxue riding away first, Xiao Linglong immediately took Cao Bailu back to the palace and started giving orders.
The last time Qianguo was in danger, it was Jingguo who came to help. This time it was their turn to help Jingguo.
Xiao Linglong, who has always expressed gratitude, will not be stingy.
Zhao Kang followed Ye Hongxue back to Jingguo and finally arrived at Huajing City after several days of traveling.
When Wu Rulong and others heard the news that Zhao Kang had come back, they were all excited and surprised.
"Thank you so much, Imperial Master, for coming all the way to help our Jingguo! Please invite Imperial Master quickly!"
When I walked into the main hall, I saw that there were quite a lot of people there. Basically, all the prominent figures in the Jingguo Imperial Capital were here.
However, there seemed to be a lot fewer generals. I wonder if they were all pushed onto the battlefield.
Wu Guanhai said at this time, "National Master, has Mr. Ye told you the general situation? According to you, what should we do next?" Naturally, outsiders don't know about the earth-shaking changes in the Zhou Kingdom.
But the news that Xiao Feiyu led his army to attack Jingguo finally came out.
The imperial capital of the Qian Kingdom.
Zhao Kang came to Fusi, Beizhen, and after showing his token, no one stopped him.
