Chapter 359 Extra 15

Faced with Emperor Jingwen's look of shock, anger and a hint of disbelief, the others couldn't help but look away.

After all, Xiaojiu is not their child, so why should they care so much?

The only one who didn't look away was the prince, whose face was also filled with embarrassment. After all, Xiaojiu had taken good care of their family, and the prince really couldn't do such a thing of repaying kindness with enmity, so...

I'm sorry, father!

Seeing that the last person who might stand with him had also compromised, Emperor Jingwen's sun trembled. Forced to do nothing, he could only pray in his heart that someone would find out and stop his crazy idea.

However, what is certain is that the old General Xu in front of him is definitely not one of them. Several of General Xu’s sons died in the war, and he is the only promising grandson. Naturally, he stands on the same side as Xiaojiu.

As expected, although General Xu heard such a big secret, he dared not mention it to anyone else and was very tight-lipped.

...There's no need to be so honest at this time, right?

Soon, watching Xiao Jiu generously conferring the title of marquis on Xu Kui, and looking at the old General Xu's eyes filled with tears of gratitude and relief, Emperor Jingwen immediately understood that this man had completely turned against him.

As for Xu Kui, it goes without saying that, except for Xiao Jiu, which emperor in the world would give her such an honor? Xu Kui would naturally become a supporter of Xiao Jiu and several princesses.

Emperor Jingwen took a deep breath, and his mood also returned to Shangjing along with Xiaojiu.

As soon as he returned to the capital, Emperor Jingwen noticed the three little girls who went to the city gate with Yao Zhi to welcome the three armies. If it were in the past, Emperor Jingwen would only think they were cute, but now that he knew Xiaojiu's plan, the more Emperor Jingwen looked at them, the more complicated his mood became.

Let's not talk about whether these three little girls can support the huge Zhou Dynasty. Even if they can, a princess becoming an emperor, this... isn't it a mess? There is no such reason for thousands of years.

Although, even though he was extremely disgusted, when Emperor Jingwen saw the royal family ganging up to bully a few little girls, he still felt uncomfortable. After all, this was Xiaojiu's child, his own granddaughter, a princess. Those people really didn't take Xiaojiu seriously. What's more, Xiaojiu asked the three princesses to enter the Hall of Supreme Harmony to burn incense for her. She, the person involved, hadn't said anything yet. How could they have the right to make comments here?

Actually, this was the first time that the three princesses came to worship him in such an orderly manner. Just for this first time, Emperor Jingwen thought about it and felt that it was not impossible, so he reluctantly accepted it. However, he couldn't help thinking in his heart that it would only be this time and would not happen again. He did not notice the slightly strange looks of the prince and others at all.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Taicheng could probably guess what Xiaojiu was going to do.

And what happened was not beyond the expectations of several people. After they watched Xiaojiu come out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, they immediately wrote down the names of those who had just spoken out to stop them. The louder they shouted, the higher they were ranked. Emperor Taicheng and others felt that these people might not be able to jump around for much longer.

After successfully incorporating the State of Chen into the territory of the Great Zhou, the next place was Beiting.

Emperor Taicheng and others were not actually optimistic about this. Although the battle with the State of Chen went quite smoothly, the opponent's combat power was far inferior to that of Beiting.

The most important thing is that Beiting is a nomadic people who are very good at riding and shooting. Even if they are defeated, they will come back again soon after they have rested and recuperated. It is harder than ascending to heaven to destroy Beiting. Therefore, Emperor Taicheng and others are not optimistic, and even the experienced Emperor Jingwen can't help but frown.

However, they couldn't decide whether to fight or not, they could only watch and it all depended on Xiaojiu's decision. As for Xiaojiu himself...needless to say, it was obvious.

After all the gold, silver and treasures looted from the nobles and royal family of the State of Chen were returned, the time had come to declare war on Beiting.

Xiaojiu in the picture also knows clearly that if he wants to expel Beiting completely, he needs to suppress them completely, beat them until they have no way to retreat, beat them until they are afraid, and even more so, beat them until they tremble with fear when they see the soldiers of Da Zhou.

To say that Ye Shuo is a genius in military affairs is not true. The only thing he can show off is his insights and knowledge that are far beyond that of people of this era.

Just when Emperor Taicheng and others were secretly wondering how Xiaojiu would respond this time, they saw a team of eight people suddenly coming from the border. They counted them again and found that there were really only eight people.

Seeing that Xiaojiu's attitude was so cautious, if Emperor Taicheng and the others guessed correctly, this was the trump card that Xiaojiu had prepared.

Emperor Taicheng and his companions looked around, but could not figure out what secrets were hidden in this mixed group of men and women, until six of them hid their bodies and fled in different directions. Then, they opened the box that they had been carrying on their backs and dared not show to anyone for a moment.

Next, an extremely black weapon that looked like it was made of fine iron appeared.

Emperor Taicheng was still wondering what on earth this thing was and why he had never seen it before. The next moment, a loud explosion sounded, and then the general leading the Beiting army fell down without even a chance to struggle.

Emperor Jingwen and others who saw this scene couldn't help but have their pupils shrink suddenly, and their bodies leaned forward slightly. Their eyes were like eagles, as if they could see through the weapons in the hands of several people.

However, the six men in the picture did not give Emperor Jingwen and his men any chance at all. After shooting and killing the enemy generals, their positions were completely exposed. The six men had no reluctance at all and were not greedy for more military exploits. It was as if they had been trained countless times before. Before others could react, they put the wooden box back on their backs and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

When the people from Beiting arrived, they only saw some slight traces left by a few people who were waiting.

Emperor Jingwen and the others were so shocked by this scene that they were speechless for a long time. They couldn't help but feel a strong fear rising in their hearts. Ye Xun, who had the worst psychological quality, even had a hint of fear in his eyes.

Fortunately, the Ninth Prince did not use this thing when he took action, otherwise he would not even have a complete corpse left, and would have been blown into a bloody mess like the general. Now, the last bit of unwillingness and complexity in Ye Xun's heart also dissipated, and he was only left with gratitude.

In the past, everyone only knew that bows and crossbows were extremely powerful, and that once they hit a vital point, the person would surely die. But now this thing has broken their cognition. The power of this thing is such that even if it does not successfully hit a vital point, the lethality of the moment it explodes when it enters the human body is enough to kill a person. Moreover, it has a longer range than a bow and arrow, and is more unexpected. Even if one wants to dodge, it is impossible to dodge with the speed of this thing.

Emperor Jingwen couldn't help but ask: "Why didn't Xiaojiu take out such a good thing earlier?"

If it had been taken out earlier, the situation would probably be very different now.

Emperor Jingwen originally thought so, but as time went by, his expression became more and more solemn, and he began to feel fortunate that Xiaojiu had not taken this thing out until now.

It was just a small test and nothing could be seen. But as the battle progressed, the horror of the weapons in the box was truly revealed.

Almost no one who was targeted by those six men could escape, no matter if they were ordinary soldiers or generals commanding a large army, they were all treated equally in front of those weapons.

Emperor Jingwen had never known that the human body was so fragile. It was like a dry branch that would break with a simple bend. There was no room for resistance. No matter how strong the shield was, it was like paper in front of it.

Emperor Jingwen couldn't imagine what a tragic scene like hell it would be if the Great Zhou really possessed such a thing and used it on a large scale in war. At that time, not only would the war not be eliminated, but it would be ten or a hundred times more tragic than it is now.

Emperor Jingwen did not think that what their Great Zhou could make, Beiting would not be able to replicate. If both sides possessed this thing, Emperor Jingwen did not dare to imagine what the scene would be like.

No wonder there were two supervisors even though there were only six people involved. At first everyone thought Xiaojiu was too cautious and it was totally unlike his style, but now they all understood everything at once, and some even thought that sending two people was too few. It would be more sufficient to have one supervisor for each person!

Seeing that Beiting's generals were shot and killed one after another, Beiting's army was gradually forced into a desperate situation by Generals Fang and Xu. In just a few months, Beiting had no way to retreat. Noticing that Beiting's soldiers were gradually brewing murderous intentions due to fatigue and despair, just when Emperor Jingwen and others were sweating and couldn't help but cheer up, they, together with Beiting's soldiers, witnessed the scene that was like the collapse of the sky.

The huge mountain collapsed nearly in half. Not only were the people of Beiting frightened, but even Emperor Taicheng and his men were startled and sweat broke out on their backs.

What is this? Did God finally get angry because he couldn't stand it anymore?

But soon, as the firm voice of Beiting Zuoxian King sounded, Emperor Taicheng and others immediately understood that this was also the work of Xiaojiu.

So, what kind of monster did I give birth to?

Emperor Jingwen was completely puzzled. He really couldn't understand how Xiaojiu could have come up with all these things. Could it be that Xiaojiu was a god who had descended to earth?

Forgive Emperor Jingwen for being a native of ancient times, as this was the only thing on his mind.

Just when everyone was in doubt, they saw the first Beiting soldier completely collapse and start rushing towards Broken Mountain desperately. In their opinion, no matter how dangerous Broken Mountain was and how many unknowns were behind it, they were not as great as the threat posed by Emperor Zhou. If they did not escape now, they would really die.

And with the first one, there will naturally be the second, the third, the fourth... and countless others. Even the Zuo Xian King of Beiting had to leave with hatred in the end.

After this battle, the frightened Bei Ting might not dare to come back for at least thirty to fifty years. As for what might happen even longer...all we can say is that the Broken Mountains are too high and dangerous to be easily crossed.

Just like that, the once glorious Beiting was destroyed.

Emperor Jingwen was in a daze, as if in a dream.

The second prince put his hand to his lips, thought for a long time, and suddenly said: "Now, in the future history books, won't Xiaojiu take the lead?"

Such achievements, the unification of the Three Kingdoms, even the founding emperor of the Great Zhou could not compare. It is better to say that because there has never been such a scene before, even if we continue to count and gather all the emperors together, they are still slightly inferior to Xiaojiu. As for the latecomers, no matter how great their achievements are, even if they surpass Xiaojiu later, in comparison, they are also latecomers.

As the Second Prince said this, his eyes unconsciously began to glance towards Emperor Jingwen.

The second prince thought, if he remembered correctly, this is what his father cared about most in his life, right?

But, but, it feels like my father worked so hard and busy for most of his life, but in the end, it was all in vain...

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Jingwen's expression froze. Obviously, he had thought of the same thing.
