Jiang Qingwan lowered his eyes with a gloomy expression. He had been busy saving the Crown Prince of Northern Wei these days.
She actually forgot about the secret weapon, the bomb, which was what really helped the heroine turn things around.
With this bomb, even if King Xuanyang and the Northern Wei came to support, they might not be able to defeat Yue Lin.
So for now, we still have to deal with the bomb first.
Jiang Qingwan wanted to use her magic power directly to destroy her bomb so that it would not explode again, but when her magic power detected the bomb and she wanted to go further, she was blocked by an invisible force.
She immediately understood that it was the will of heaven that restricted her from using magic to interfere with the heroine.
It seems that if we want to destroy the bomb, we can only rely on the power of this world itself.
Fortunately, the walls of Yonglu Pass are strong, and even with bombs, the Yuelin Kingdom cannot attack for a while.
Coupled with Jiang Weizhen's tight defense, Yuelin Kingdom ultimately returned empty-handed.
"Damn it, this Jiang Weizhen is just a coward, he just refuses to fight."
Asinwei was extremely angry and his patience was almost exhausted.
"Yonglu Pass is the strongest line of defense of the Yuan Dynasty. Jiang Weizhen is very experienced, so it's normal that we can't capture it in a short time."
Once Yonglu Pass was broken, the entire Yuan Dynasty was lost. How could the mighty Yuan Dynasty be so easily conquered?
"Although the bomb was powerful, it was thrown too close. It would have been much better if it could have landed in the city."
Asinwei looked at Ruan Hezhu and asked her for the method.
Ruan Hezhu was slightly stunned, then said, "You can make a weapon similar to a catapult. Use it to launch bombs."
"Since you knew this method, why didn't you tell me earlier? Throw the bomb inside the city wall and Jiang Weizhen will surrender."
Facing Asinwei's suspicion, Ruan Hezhu said helplessly, "I have never been to the battlefield, and I don't know the situation on the battlefield. I haven't thought about this aspect."
More importantly, Asinwei was too dangerous, so she naturally wanted to keep some things in reserve. In addition, she did not expect that the Crown Prince of Northern Wei could be rescued.
She originally wanted to spend more time with the Jiang family.
"It's too late to make bomb-throwing machines now. We'd better attack the city directly to have a better chance of success."
Asinwei frowned, as if wondering how long Jiangwei Town could hold out under such an attack.
Just then, a soldier walked in quickly with a secret letter.
"Prince, a spy from Yanzhou has reported."
"Show it up."
Asinwei took the secret letter, glanced at it, and his face changed drastically.
"How come it's so fast?"
"What's wrong?" Ruan Hezhu asked cautiously when she saw his horrified face.
"The Northern Wei army and Prince Xuanyang arrived at Yonglu Pass yesterday."
Asinwei said in a deep voice, the crown prince of Northern Wei was rescued last night, how did Northern Wei get the news in less than half a day?
He couldn't figure out what was going on, just like he still hadn't figured out how the Crown Prince of Northern Wei was rescued.
"They've been traveling day and night for two days now. In a few days, they'll reach Yonglu Pass. We may not be able to capture Yonglu Pass in such a short time."
Originally, he thought that even if the Northern Wei Dynasty turned around and besieged them, it would take at least half a month, and half a month was enough for him to capture Yonglu Pass.
But now there are only five or six days left, Jiang Weizhen will definitely defend to the death, and it will be extremely difficult for him to attack Yonglu Pass.
"Come if you want. They don't have the walls of Yonglu Pass to back them up. A few bombs will wipe out the entire Northern Wei army."
Ruan Hezhu said viciously, "Let them never return."
In her previous life, she was killed by the Crown Prince of Northern Wei, and she had an irreconcilable feud with Northern Wei.
"But our primary goal now is Yonglu Pass and the Great Yuan Kingdom. Now we are being besieged by two great powers at once. Even if the bombs are powerful, Yuelin can't withstand them."
Asinwei shouted harshly, saying that winter was approaching and Yuelin did not have as much food and grass as the other two countries. The 500,000-strong army would not survive the winter.
He had thought that as long as he could capture Yonglu Pass, he would be able to obtain food and grass to survive the winter. Next spring, he would be able to lead his army straight into the Yuan Dynasty capital. Now everything has been shattered.
Thinking of the promise he made to the king before attacking the Yuan Dynasty, he was too embarrassed to go back in disgrace.
If he loses this battle, all his previous efforts will be wiped out.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists and pounded the table beside him, breaking it into pieces.
This scared Ruan Hezhu who was standing beside him.
She consoled him, "We're not at the end of our rope yet. We still have the upper hand. We might be able to capture Yonglu Pass before the Northern Wei arrive."
Ruan Hezhu felt a little regretful at this time. When making the bomb, he deliberately weakened its power, which was why he was unable to attack.
If the bomb was powerful enough, Yonglu Pass would not be able to withstand it for ten days.
She thought about it and came up with an idea, "Prince, take some of the troops tomorrow during the day. We will pretend to attack the city, and then launch a night attack at night."
As long as they attack during the day, the soldiers of Yonglu Pass will be on high alert. After a day of fatigue, they will naturally relax at night.
"Well, pass the order down, let everyone have a good rest. We must capture Yonglu Pass tomorrow."
Asinwei knew that he could no longer win the battle head-on and could only use some tricks.
But what they didn't know was that while they were preparing for the night attack, Jiang Weizhen was also planning to destroy the bomb at night.
"There are still two invisibility pills. I already know where the bombs are. Tomorrow night, I will pour water over them and destroy this batch. Even if they make more, it will be too late."
Jiang Dingbei said excitedly that Yuelin had no bombs, and they would be defeated once the reinforcements arrived.
Besides, destroying the bomb is easier than rescuing people, so he is very confident.
Jiang Weizhen thought for a moment and then agreed. This was the best way to defend Yonglu Pass.
As long as the bombs were destroyed, they would have nothing to fear.
"Then you should act according to the situation. If you find something wrong, retreat immediately."
"good."
The two parties, each with their own thoughts, started to take action at night after playing chess during the day.
The first to act was Jiang Dingbei. He used the invisibility pill again and came to the Yuelin military camp.
As soon as he arrived at the military camp, he found something wrong. Yue Lin was not resting at this time but preparing for tomorrow's battle.
Instead, they were all on high alert, obviously waiting for orders.
He immediately realized that Yue Lin was planning to attack Yonglu Pass at night.
His face changed drastically and he quickly walked to the bomb and poured all the water he had with him on it.
But this only destroyed half of the bomb, and he didn't have time to find water in the Yuelin military camp.
He wanted to rush back to tell his father that Yue Lin was going to attack Yonglu Pass at night.
