"On the count of three, huh?"
"That's quite interesting. Let the princess count too!"
Behind a row of cannon barrels, Gu Qingcheng smiled brightly and brilliantly, like a fairy who had fallen to the earth.
But what she said was not "fairy" at all!
The adjutant's eyes widened as he struggled desperately, shouting frantically, "Princess, calm down!"
"Your Highness, please don't get on with this madman Huo Yun."
"Huo Yun, you're looking for death yourself, why are you dragging me into this?"
The adjutant begged and scolded.
You really can't blame him for losing his composure. Anyone would be nervous if they were pointed at so many guns.
Swords and knives have no eyes, dear!
The latest mortar, dear!
It hits wherever you point, oh no, although the accuracy is high, if you miss, you and that bastard Huo Yun will be blown to pieces together.
Huo Yun: ...
In fact, he was also shocked when he saw those small cannon barrels.
He is just crazy, not stupid!
As a warrior who has gone through gunfire and fought countless battles on the battlefield, he has an almost beast-like instinct for danger.
The moment he was "locked", Huo Yun felt a chill on his back and his heartbeat seemed to stop.
Danger!
Very dangerous!
But soon, Huo Yun's reason overcame his instincts.
Hearing the adjutant's crying and begging, Huo Yun curled his lips and said calmly, "Princess Qingcheng, I bet you don't dare!"
This is the capital, not the wilderness, nor the imperial mausoleum.
Firing at random is a provocation to the Marshal.
Yes, Huo Yun admitted that in the past one or two years, Princess Qingcheng was indeed very popular and was the darling of the entire Beijing social circle.
There were many people surrounding him, including foreigners.
But, so what?
These days, having guns and soldiers is the way to go!
The last princess of a dynasty, who knew a few foreigners and had hundreds of people under her care, wanted to become the king and dominate the capital?
dream!
Now that the war is imminent, warlords of all sizes in the north, northwest, Liaodong and other places are all eyeing it covetously.
Half of China is filled with tension.
In such a tense situation, just a small spark can cause a huge fire.
Everyone knows it, and no one wants to be the one to start the fire.
Because, if you don't handle it well, you will get into trouble.
Princess Qingcheng is the last princess. If she dares to provoke a war in the capital, she may cause a big fire!
She can't bear the consequences!
Huo Yun was just gambling, betting that Princess Qingcheng was not that stupid, betting that she would not dare to really fire the cannon.
Gu Qingcheng:...Tsk, do you think you are Yan Shuangying and you are making a bet with this princess?
"one!"
Gu Qingcheng met Huo Yun's determined gaze and gently uttered a number.
Huo Yun raised his eyebrows and continued to maintain his appearance as a domineering warlord who was arrogant, evil, calm and composed.
However, his hand subconsciously reached for the pistol hanging on his belt.
"two!"
Gu Qingcheng continued counting.
The adjutant was going crazy. "Princess, calm down! Princess, please don't bother with that bastard Huo Yun."
"I, I'll report this to the Marshal right away. Don't worry, the Marshal will definitely give you justice!"
"Huo Yun! Get back, you bastard! Get back!"
Is this bastard stupid?
I bet Princess Qingcheng wouldn't dare to do anything.
What is there for people to be afraid of?
Even if a riot is caused, people can cover it up by simply saying "I was testing the gun."
And you, you've been blown away.
If you die, you die, but the key is that it will implicate my brothers and innocent me!
"three!"
Gu Qingcheng was not affected at all. She slowly uttered the third number at her own pace.
The guards standing in the front row have finished reloading the shells.
As soon as they received Gu Qingcheng's order, they started to move.
Then, with a few bangs, shells rushed out of the barrel, drew parabolas, and landed accurately on the trucks parked on the side of the road.
boom!
Rumble!
Several troop carriers were directly destroyed.
The huge explosion caused the ground to tremble slightly.
The hundreds of people brought by Huo Yun all subconsciously lay down on the ground and rolled around looking for suitable cover.
People near the truck were knocked over by the blast and injured by flying debris.
Even Huo Yun, although not hit or injured, was shocked by the fact that "Princess Qingcheng actually dared to do that."
Did she really fire the cannon?
How dare she?
"Huo Yun, you lost the bet!"
Gu Qingcheng smiled smugly and playfully, like a little fox whose plan had succeeded.
While provoking Huo Yun, she did not forget her adjutant. "Adjutant Zheng, how about the latest mortar? It's very accurate and powerful."
"As long as it's operated by experienced artillerymen, it can definitely achieve 'point and shoot'!"
Adjutant Zheng: ...I was almost scared to death, okay?
Although the shells fell on the truck, they did not fly towards his head.
But, the distance is too close!
His ears were still ringing.
The key point is that he was a human with his arms tightly clasped, so he couldn't hide even if he wanted to.
Adjutant Zheng only felt that his body was on the ground, but his soul had already floated in the air.
He was already in such a mess, his legs so weak that he could barely stand up, but the little princess was still, still——
