Chapter 778 Young General vs. Rich Lady 81
At noon, the sun is shining brightly.
Zhao Shan took out compressed biscuits and mineral water from the trunk. Everyone's stomachs were growling with hunger, and when they were away from home, they could only make do with this.
Huo Xiao took a bite of the compressed biscuit. It was much more delicious than the dry and hard multi-grain biscuits. It was fragrant when chewed, and there was no rough sand or gravel to scratch the teeth. It was very convenient to bring it with you during the march.
After finishing lunch quickly, Huo Xiao took out the bronze mirror and said, "God, we are ready. You can send it."
Ji Yunhuan took an early morning flight back to Hanyuan City, and then went straight to Lulin Mountain Scenic Area, waiting to deliver explosives to Huo Xiao.
In addition to explosives, Ji Yunhuan also sent over several barrels of gasoline.
This batch of explosives is more powerful and has more quantity than the previous batch. Ji Yunhuan also passed the tablet over and said, "Take a look at it yourself. Be careful when using it. Leave enough space and don't hurt your own people."
Huo Xiao distributed some of the explosives and gave the rest to Yan Changfeng.
"Has the news been released? There's no need to shoot the messenger now. Make sure the news reaches Hedan's ears. This time, we must lure Hedan out."
Zhuo Zhantu said, "Don't worry, General. We shouted so loudly that the Beirong people must have heard us."
Huo Xiao jumped on the horse. He also brought a horse with him when he left the city, but he had been hiding in a dark place to rest. It only came in handy now.
Ji Yunhuan strongly requested to take her along, that is, to take the bronze mirror along, so that she could experience the ancient battlefield up close.
She finally had some free time today, but she stayed in the villa and didn't go anywhere. She wanted to watch the live broadcast!
Huo Xiao couldn't persuade the gods, so he could only tie the bronze mirror to the horse's back. "But Xiao can't take care of you, and you can't see anything on the horse's back."
"It's okay. I just spent a thousand merit points to get VIP access. I can see the scene within a kilometer of you. It's a holographic projection. It's so cool! Just don't put me, no, don't put the bronze mirror too far away."
"Bronze Mirror is really wicked. It only took a short while for me to open it, but they charged me a thousand merit points. I might even have to renew the subscription later. I'll have to pay for VIP membership after I upgrade. They are really unscrupulous merchants!"
The bronze mirror shook its head in dissatisfaction. Originally, it did not have this privilege, but the host insisted to see it. It took great pains to give the host VIP membership, but did not make any profit from the price difference, and the host still scolded it.
Oh, oh, oh, the bronze mirror feels so wronged.
Ji Yunhuan patted the bronze mirror and said, "Stop making trouble. The merit points have been deducted. Hurry up. I want to enjoy the distinguished VIP service!"
Ji Yunhuan seemed to be in the wilderness, surrounded by endless mountains and grasslands. The grass and trees were withered and lifeless. She saw Huo Xiao wearing armor and ran over excitedly, banging her head against the glass door on the balcony.
She touched her forehead and almost cried out in pain, "This is too realistic. I can't even see the things in the room. Do you want to kill me?"
The bronze mirror quickly adjusted its parameters. Ji Yunhuan didn't dare to run around anymore and stayed on the sofa to continue watching.
It was as if Huo Xiao was riding a horse and stopped in front of Ji Yunhuan, and even every hair on Chi Xiao's body was clearly visible.
"Let's go, the bigger the noise, the better. This team, follow me, let's go!"
His vision was instantly raised, and Ji Yunhuan saw Huo Xiao riding away with dozens of people.
The central camp of the Northern Rong army.
"Report! The left wing was attacked and the enemy has retreated!"
"A piece of the right wing was bitten off and contact was lost. We have sent people to pursue the enemy."
"The enemy retreated too quickly. We could vaguely see tall chariots. They didn't need to attack the city, but I don't know why they brought such tall chariots."
"Report! We have investigated and found out that the chariot is made of steel and is very heavy. It does not require human or animal power and can move on its own. The Huo family army was able to retreat so quickly, all thanks to this magical chariot!"
After fighting for so long, they finally got some useful information. Hedan shouted, "Explore again! Find out how many people they are. Can this car really move by itself? I don't believe Huo Xiao really knows magic. If he is so powerful, he would not have to sneak attack us. He would have attacked us long ago!"
Not long after, another messenger came to report, and Xuan Jiu also came along.
"We have already found out that the tanks need to be refueled. It seems to be the black oil in the Molotov cocktail. The Huo family soldiers seem to be anxious and are shouting loudly that the black oil is not enough. They are all scrambling for the black oil."
"Without black oil, those fast-running steel chariots would be nothing more than a pile of scrap metal, unable to move. Even horses couldn't pull such heavy chariots."
He Dan was overjoyed. "This is good news. As long as they use up all the black oil, it will only be a matter of time before we can deal with the Huo family army outside the city."
"I saw the chariot with my own eyes. According to what I saw, how many people came?"
Xuan Jiu shook his fan and said confidently, "There are only a few hundred people. Most of the Huo family's army is still guarding the city. Huo Xiao's weakness is too obvious. He is too soft-hearted. He must have left enough people to guard the city."
"The best strategy for now is to hold on! No matter how they provoke us, don't chase them recklessly or disrupt their formation. Once they run out of black oil and those powerful weapons, they will go back home."
"We just need to ambush them on their way back to the city. We should not stop attacking the city. It's not to attack them, but to prevent them from coming out to support us."
"Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I have a hunch that Huo Xiao must be among the group leaving the city. Huo Yuanyi uses his troops to play it safe, but Huo Xiao is different. He is young and arrogant, and uses his troops in a cunning way. From the fact that he risked his life to kill Ke Er, we can see that he is a man who doesn't care about his life."
Hedan knew that Xuanjiu was right, but he still felt aggrieved.
He is the eldest prince of the Rong State. He led an army of 350,000 to attack the Wei State. More than 100,000 soldiers have died. Although most of the dead were not loyal to him, he did not feel too sad, but the rest all obeyed his orders.
Even if he didn't listen before, he is obedient now. These are his capital to rule the world in the future.
He originally had an absolute advantage in military strength, but now he can only passively defend himself and is being played around by hundreds of Huo's soldiers. How can he save his dignity?
"Huo Xiao has a master behind him, and his chariots and weapons are endless. Even if I am a god at using troops, I can do nothing about it."
"If the master can help me, I can sweep across the Central Plains and unify the world in just one month instead of a year!"
Master Xuan Jiu's face looked a little ugly. When the two armies went to war, he predicted that Rong Kingdom would conquer the Central Plains in a year. Hedan's words were clearly mocking that he was not as capable as that person!
Xuan Jiu is proud and arrogant. He considers himself a counselor, but he is not one of Hedan's subordinates who would allow himself to be beaten, scolded and insulted by Hedan.
He put away his folding fan and said coldly: "I have already offered the strategy. If the eldest prince has nothing to do, I will go to study gunpowder. Goodbye!"
