Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

As the transport team arrived at Qi State's military camp, Ling Fu sent someone to take the inventory, rubbed his hands and came back, saying, "General, the firecrackers and cannons have all arrived. Let's see where Yuan Ke can go this time."

Xiao Xuexing was sitting behind the desk opening the letter Xiao Zirong wrote to him. It was different from the two of them who would occasionally discuss political affairs when they got together even when they were conjoined. Xiao Zirong was not so shy when writing letters. She has a very sweet mouth and dares to say explicit words, so sometimes Xiao Xuexing deliberately leaves for a few days just to watch Xiao Zirong write him a letter.

After reading the letter, he said: "The guns and cannons are not omnipotent. What's going on in Qi?"

Ling Fu said: "There is no movement, there is no reaction other than normal defense, general, do you think they are afraid? Will they surrender?"

"Surrender?" Xiao Xuexing sneered: "Everyone else in the Wei Kingdom is likely to surrender, only Yuan Ke can't."

Even if Yuan Ke wanted to surrender, he would not give the opponent this chance.

Judging from now, Xiao Zirong didn't suffer any harm at the beginning, but what if Xiao Zirong didn't have the ability to reach the sky?What if he didn't find the location of the underground palace, and couldn't even blow up the underground palace?

What will be the consequences?Imprisoned in the palace, violated by Yuan Ke, life is worse than death.

Every time Xiao Xuexing thinks of this, he can't wait to tear Yuan Ke into pieces.

But this seems to be too cheap for him, why not let him have a taste of being imprisoned.

If Yuan Ke surrendered, even in order to appease the soldiers of Wei State, he would have to show kindness, which was completely opposite to Xiao Xuexing's original intention.

Of course, based on Xiao Xuexing's understanding of Yuan Ke, the other party must not surrender easily, so he is not a normal person.

Xiao Xuexing continued to send scouts to find out the news, and at the same time, he was fighting steadily, and the army under him was also advancing little by little.

Whenever the Wei army who confronted them was killed, they threw away their helmets and armor, fled in all directions, or threw their weapons and surrendered directly.

These surrendered Wei troops were placed in other places by Xiao Xuexing, and they didn't dare to put them together with the Qi troops. On the one hand, it was because the opponent's army was too poor in military discipline.

It is reasonable to say that the Qi army was not much better than the Wei army before, but since Xiao Zirong came up with a refreshing way of training troops and achieved results, Xiao Xuexing could no longer bear this situation.

At the beginning, everyone thought that Xiao Zirong's actions were grandstanding, just to look good during the training.

However, when the fight really broke out, the generals who had scoffed at this way of training soldiers all shut their mouths in despair.

Orders and prohibitions cannot be achieved no matter how hard the generals try, there will always be some forks in the middle, but these have never appeared in Jinlingwei and Xueziying.

The first is because these soldiers have been educated to be absolutely loyal to the regent and the emperor, and the second is that they are literate. The words written on paper are always more accurate than word of mouth.

Xiao Zirong even came up with a semaphore, and if it doesn't work, he can still use this method to convey messages.

Therefore, the Qi army's ability to advance so fast is not entirely due to the firearms.

These Wei troops were placed aside, and even their generals were honest.

Ling Fu asked worriedly: "General, what if they turn against each other again?"

Xiao Xuexing glanced at Ling Fu: "At this point, what else can they do if they turn against each other? If they surrender, they can still be incorporated into our army or sent back to be ordinary people. If they turn against... then they can only run away." Be a refugee."

If Wei Guo counted on them, why would they surrender?

So don't say that Xiao Xuexing sent people to guard these people, even if they didn't send people over, these people might not be able to run away, of course they wouldn't be able to run away if they stayed for two more days.

With Xiao Xuexing's black heart, how could it be possible to feed these Wei Jun?How can I run away if I can't get enough to eat.

Because of the unfavorable wars for a long time, Wei Jun's hearts have been scattered.

In addition, the Privy Council sent people to stir up trouble among the Wei army, and from time to time, people came to join Xiao Xuexing. At the beginning, there were relatively few people, but later on, there were more and more people.

There were even many corporal leaders who ran out secretly with people and met other brothers on the road, and then ran to the Qi army camp to surrender amidst laughter.

Xiao Xuexing naturally did not refuse these people, and then sent them all to manage those Wei troops.

At the beginning, Jing Shi was still a little confused. Can Wei Jun be in charge of Wei Jun?

It was only later that he realized that the regent had figured out the hearts of the people.

The Wei Jun who surrendered on the battlefield is treated differently from the Wei Jun who came to take refuge. The Wei Jun who took refuge originally wanted to find a way out. Even if they were accepted by the Qi Army, they may not feel at ease, so they need to show their loyalty.

But now they are not allowed to go to the battlefield. After all, going to the battlefield is equivalent to gaining military merit. It is too late for Xiao Xuexing to promote his own people, so there is no need for these people to show their loyalty.

So these people tried their best to toss the captured Wei soldiers, but they would not really endanger their lives. Almost every day in the captive camp, the voices of scolding could be heard, most of which were former comrades insulting each other.

Those who are tortured do so to vent their anger, and those who are abused do so to distance themselves from them.

Afterwards, the noisy Xiao Xuexing got a little annoyed, so he sent someone over to tell them to shut up, and then they calmed down.

Compared with the noisy prisoner camp, Xianyang seemed much quieter.

This faintly gave Xiao Xuexing a bad feeling.

Just when they hit within a hundred miles of Xianyang, it was obvious that Wei Jun had become more courageous, which was completely different from the passive resistance before.

Those Wei soldiers before were probably afraid of being punished, but they didn't dare to surrender directly, so they beat them deliberately, and then waited to be captured.

But now those Wei soldiers really started to desperately, even in the face of firecrackers and artillery, they rushed forward fearlessly, as if trying to use their lives to advance the front line.

The firecrackers are fine, but if the artillery is close, it basically loses its effectiveness. In addition, the artillery is difficult to move, and these people seem to focus on destroying the artillery.

Wei Jun's sudden rise caught Qi Jun by surprise, and both Ling Fu and Jing Shi felt like they were on the verge of a formidable enemy.

But Xiao Xuexing was sitting in the middle tent, not wearing armor, just sitting there in Tsing Yi and said very calmly: "It's okay, send Feiyuan out."

Although no flying kites were brought over before, after the firearms battalion was bombed, the remains of the firearms did not really disappear, but were collected by Ling Fu.

After Xiao Xuexing arrived, he asked the two surviving technicians to clean up the wreckage of the flying kite and made a smaller flying kite.

This flying kite can't take people into the sky because of its shrinkage, but it can still fly into the sky by itself.

Xiao Xuexing didn't let Feiyuan carry anything on it, but asked the people below to adjust Feiyuan to the direction of Wei Jun and let it fly into the sky.

After Feiyuan went to the sky, Wei Jun's attention was indeed attracted to Feiyuan.

People are not very accurate in judging the size of objects in the sky, and Wei Jun has a psychological shadow on Feiyuan, so he panicked the moment he saw Feiyuan.

But at this time, two teams of heavy cavalry rushed out from both sides and rushed into the Wei army's position. The Wei army's position was cut apart vertically and horizontally. It also doesn't work.

If it were changed to the past, at this moment Wei Jun must have thrown away his armor and prepared to surrender.

However, this time Wei Jun just recalled the soldiers under his command and hid inside the city wall, but it seemed that the whole army was fighting again.

Xiao Xuexing stood on the school field holding a longbow, and while sending the arrow in his hand to the bull's eye, he listened to the scout's report.

After shooting the last arrow in his hand, the scout also reported.

Jing Shi on the side frowned and said: "Your Highness, the situation is not right. Why did Wei Jun suddenly put on a desperate fight? Could it be that now they realize that they are going to destroy the country?"

Xiao Xuexing handed the longbow to the attendant beside him and said, "No, you should think what Yuan Ke did?"

"Huh?" Jing Shi was at a loss.

His knowledge of Emperor Wei was limited to hearsay, so how could he know what Yuan Ke had done?

Xiao Xuexing thought as he walked towards the middle tent. If Wei Jun really had the ideological consciousness that he would rather die than defend the country, he would not be beaten to this point. He would have shown this momentum long ago.

Although Xiao Xuexing was very confident that the final result would be the same, the fearless Wei Jun would definitely consume even more of their manpower and material resources.

At that time, even Xiao Xuexing may have to weigh it, because there are not many soldiers in the Qi army who can continue to fight in the cold north.

Even though both Xiao Zirong and him have been subjecting Jinling Guard and Xueziying to undergo cold training over the years, winter in the south is different from winter in the north.

That is to say, Xiao Zirong made wool products. Rich people buy cashmere sweaters to keep warm, while those who have no money look for cashmere clothes. Therefore, in Wei Jun, they either couldn’t afford thick clothes and shivered in the cold, or because the clothes were too thick, they When it is inconvenient to move, the Qi army has an advantage over them.

The combination of these advantages caused Wei Jun to lose a little bit. What's the point of fighting to the death now?

Even if Yuan Ke thought about it, would those under him think so?

So such an anomaly means that Yuan Ke refused to sit still and must have done something.

Even if Xiao Xue was asked to come, it was nothing more than coercion and lure.

In terms of lure, money is enough for ordinary soldiers, but for those generals and courtiers who know the situation, money is not so important compared to life.

Therefore, it may be a lure to the bottom, but it must be a threat to the top.

What kind of coercion can make those old fox-like ministers in Wei Guo compromise, even regardless of life and death?

Unless death is near.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuexing paused, his complexion changed slightly, and he turned his head and said, "I'll tell you, from today onwards, you must drink boiled water in the barracks, and try to minimize contact with the captive camp. After returning, people must wash their whole bodies with salt water, drink medicine, and take off their clothes and boil them in boiling water."

Jing Shi was at a loss: "Your Highness? Why?"

This series of measures looks like encountering a plague, but it is winter now, and the north has not been affected for the time being, so how can there be a plague?

Xiao Xuexing looked in the direction of Xianyang: "If I'm right, the epidemic is Yuan Ke's last trump card."
