Cookie thought, yes, the girl is inside.

"Captain Yuan is right, but don't worry. The girls have made arrangements, and they will be safe."

He coughed lightly and shook his head, saying, "Yuan Sanlang is now trapped in a jar. There is only a battalion of guards left inside. How can they be our opponent? It is only a matter of time before we capture him."

"By the way, the girl never told me about her previous plans, so I guessed most of them."

Cookie spoke eloquently, "According to the girl's temperament, how could there be only one ambush at the explosion point? The palace where Yuan Saburo lives is heavily guarded, but the girl can raze the surrounding area to the ground, enough to trap Yuan Saburo inside the palace and prevent him from leaving."

"As for the guards, they weren't so lucky. The girl was planning to wipe out the entire guard camp..."

"Yuan Saburo and the guards have no idea what the little black ball is. Facing this unknown danger, they must be terrified. They also don't know what's happening outside the palace. I'm afraid they're completely lost and groping around..."

Yuan Wu wanted to rush up and cover his mouth.

It was already late, and he was so anxious that he almost stamped his feet, but Mr. Qu started to talk at length again.

Just as he was about to interrupt, it happened as Cookie had expected.

The second explosion point exploded, and the noise spread outside the palace. Judging from the sound, it was not far from them.

Cookie paused for a moment, then looked around as if nothing had happened, and finally found Chu Yu standing at the door of the post station.

"Why doesn't Mr. Chu come over? Oh, I understand. He thinks this place is too dangerous..."

Yuan Wu calmed himself down a little, listened to Cookie's mumbling in his ears, and sighed helplessly.

The palace is so big that it is not easy to catch someone. With the girl following her, the princess will definitely be fine.

The soldiers in front of the palace gate were still setting up ladders.

Suddenly, rows of guards from the guard camp appeared on the city wall.

The leader's surname was Kong, and he was one of the ten centurions in the guard battalion.

He heard the noise outside the palace and thought that it was the commanders who came to check the situation. However, when he led his men to the top of the city wall and looked down, he saw densely packed soldiers, siege ladders being built, and battering rams used to break open the city gates.

Captain Kong's heart suddenly sank and he felt something was wrong.

What's going on?

The night was too dark, and the light from the torches was not enough for him to see which army it was.

You should know that there are five armies inside and outside the city, not including the Zhongshan granary.

What about the rest of the army and its commanders?

Centurion Kong hurriedly ordered the guards around him, "Quickly inform His Highness!"

He was so anxious that even his voice was trembling.

It happened so suddenly.

Where are the reinforcements? Where is the garrison?

The deafening noise just now came from the south. Has the garrison defected to the rebels?

Centurion Kong's mind was in a mess and he had no idea what to do.

The action outside did not stop because of the sudden appearance of the figure on the city wall. Under the command of Xing Shi and General Chen, battering rams with wooden stakes tied to them were already in place, and rows of ladders were being urgently built.

In order to avoid missing any movement in the palace, all soldiers kept their movements in absolute silence.

There was no shouting or yelling, everyone was working silently. The scene looked very strange, not like a war, a rebellion, or a siege, but more like they were working to build a wall...

Centurion Kong could only feign composure, pretending to know nothing, and asked in a deep voice, "The palace gates are locked. What are you all doing here? If you have anything important to report to His Highness, please let him know first..."

Upon hearing this, Cookie looked up and behaved very politely, bowing and saying, "It is indeed an important matter. Please open the door, sir."

Centurion Kong: “…”Am I stupid or are you stupid?

Seeing that he didn't respond, Cookie sighed, "I didn't intend to damage the palace walls and gates because they would be troublesome to repair, and the future reconstruction would always be off-color, which would greatly affect the appearance..."

Yuan Wu looked up at the sky speechlessly when he heard this. So this was the reason.

He doesn't mind, the princess doesn't mind, but you are a girl's counselor, living in the fortress instead of in Zhongshan, why do you mind this!

When Xing Shi and General Chen heard this, they looked at each other.

This gentleman just showed up today. They don't know him at all and are not familiar with his character, so how could they interrupt him rashly?

After all, they are reinforcements invited by the princess, so they must be treated with courtesy.

The two of them just found out that the girl actually had another trick up her sleeve for them.

"But Your Excellency showed up at an inopportune moment. We're in a hurry to go in and look for someone, so we can't stay outside the palace forever."

Cookie thought for a moment and decided to use the little black ball. The beauty of the city wall was not as important as the girl. However, he still felt uncomfortable when he thought about the different colors of the walls on both sides in the future.

Centurion Kong stood on the city wall and watched Cookie open the wooden box and take out a few black balls.

The generals and soldiers who had gathered in front of the door scattered when they saw this. Those who were slow to react were pulled by their companions and ran towards the post station together.

In less than a moment, only a few people were left in front of the palace gate.

The Wei family army lit the fuses with familiarity and used throwers to throw the small black balls at the palace gates, palace walls and other weak structural points.

Only then did Centurion Kong finally understand where the deafening sound came from.

The moment the sound appeared, the earth shook and the tremor was so strong that those who were above felt it deeply. The smoke rising from below instantly enveloped them.

The smell was pungent and disgusting.

All the guards on the city wall were affected by the shock wave of the explosion. Some were pushed to the ground, while others swayed left and right before finally stabilizing themselves.

Because it was so close, the ears seemed unable to bear it and a buzzing sound occurred, which even caused temporary deafness.

Witness the power.

Centurion Kong couldn't help but widen his eyes and stare in astonishment at the crack in the palace wall below. His face turned pale in an instant and his body was shaking.

Such a divine weapon is unheard of!

There was no way they could be his opponent. If he attacked again, the city gate would collapse.

Cookie shook his head, as if dissatisfied with this success. Unfortunately, he only brought out a few of the improved black balls. They had just used them all outside the south city, and he had already given the rest to the girl.

Cookie had the same idea as the girl. After seeing the improved results, he no longer cared about the power of the old little black balls.

After the smoke completely dissipated, the guards under the city brought out a few more small black balls.

Centurion Kong's face changed drastically when he saw this. "Retreat quickly! The city walls are about to collapse!"

Why is there such a powerful weapon!

Where did these mysterious people come from?

It seems that he is not from Zhongshan Kingdom at all, and the clothes he wears look familiar...

Centurion Kong led his men in a hasty retreat and ran to Yuan Saburo's bedroom, intending to immediately notify His Highness to escape. The situation was now very clear: the garrison in the city had rebelled!

They were trapped in the palace, with no knowledge of the outside world...

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.
