Qiao Shaochu followed Magistrate Zou and stood on the city gate.

"Sir Zou, the lord has something he wants to show you." Just as the words fell, there was a loud bang, and a flash of fire fell not far from Magistrate Zou. A big hole was punched in the city wall, and rocks flew up and landed at Magistrate Zou's feet.

Magistrate Zou was still in shock. If it had not been in public, he would have almost been unable to stand up and would have fallen to his knees.

The other soldiers were also shocked. If the explosion caused by the fireball fell on them, they would be completely destroyed.

"Sir Zhou, there is no difference between stubbornly resisting and surrendering, and continuing to fight will only result in more casualties. The Lord is kind and will not make things difficult for you. He will also give you a minor official position to continue managing this Beishou County."

Magistrate Zou's face changed many times, and finally he ordered the soldiers to stop resisting, open the gate of Beishou County, and welcome Tu Yufan's army into the city.

Tu Yufan strictly ordered his soldiers not to harass the people, favored the people in management, abolished the previous harsh laws, and re-enacted new laws that were more beneficial to the people, allowing them to live and work in peace. The people quickly got used to Tu Yufan's rule. As for the Tianjin Army, a group of motley crowd, Zhang Ertou divided them into several groups and directly defeated them.

After that, Tu Yufan used Beishou City as his base and began to expand outward.

Qusha City

Prince Gong discussed with his staff.

"Has anyone heard of Mo Fan?"

King Gong's face was not very optimistic. He thought that the people in the south were just a bunch of losers, but suddenly Mo Fan appeared and created a siege fire bomb, which took over several surrounding cities in one go. He had to pay attention to it.

An aide replied: "Someone saw Qiao Shaochu. He seems to have become Mo Fan's aide."

Prince Gong's eyes narrowed. He had tried to kill them all, but he didn't expect that only Qiao Shaochu escaped. He thought that he would not live for long, but he didn't expect that he would bring a powerful enemy to him.

He hasn't captured Shuangjie City yet, but the south has already been occupied. How can this not be annoying?

"My Lord, the most important thing right now is to occupy Shuangjie City, and then we can proceed slowly."

Shuangjie City, as the capital of Beixiang State, naturally has a superior geographical environment. One must first enter Yulian Pass, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Beixiang Army has the strongest military force here, and there is a special meaning in becoming king here.

Moreover, the King of Wu also came from the west, so he had to enter the pass first to gain the upper hand.

Kitamori County

Tu Yufan looked at the people being escorted out of the city without any surprise, but Zhang Ertou was very surprised: "Boss, how do you know they are traitors? These bastards almost made them leak."

These people were all traitors in the Huoyu Camp. They were caught before they could escape, and only death awaited them.

Tu Yufan had already used the space-time mirror to monitor every move in the Huoyu Camp. The Huoyu Camp was of great importance, and given his reputation gained through gunpowder, other forces would naturally send people to investigate the situation.

Sure enough, almost every once in a while someone would do something sneaky and try to bring the secret of gunpowder back to China.

All of these cannot escape the surveillance of the space-time mirror.

The only fragment of the time-space mirror was placed on Liu Yutong. Soon after Liu Yutong arrived in the capital of Jin State, she gave birth to a son, named Mo Yu'an. Because there were no officials in the Mo family, they fell out of the center of power, and were protected by the Shangshu Mansion and Ping'an Hou, so naturally there was no danger to his life.
