In an instant, fire appeared and extinguished under the entire city wall.

Thick smoke billowed and the sound was like thunder.

Exactly like the dark clouds filled with thick lightning!

Those soldiers of Yan State who were close to the city wall of Jiangzhou were as if they were in the dark clouds with lightning and thunder.

The firelight flashed and extinguished, densely packed and seemingly endless.

Like an electric dragon dancing wildly.

The sound was deafening, and they could feel the sound waves coming towards them.

It was like substance, making their armors tremble.

Just like those invisible fists, hitting their heads hard...

After the explosion ended in just a few breaths, the group of Yan troops under the city wall were in a daze, swaying, and did not run away with the Yan troops behind them.

In fact, they could no longer hear any sounds and were temporarily deaf.

In short, the Yan army was defeated.

A large number of Yan troops fled and retreated rapidly. They could not care about any military orders at this moment.

Yan army position.

Zhao Pu, who was able to stabilize the formation of thousands of cavalry, was shocked in his heart, but he was still calm in the face of danger. He waved his hand quickly and ordered: "Retreat the troops, pay the gold to withdraw the troops!"

Dang Dang Dang Dang!

The gong sounded.

But it seemed a little late, because the Yan army had already retreated desperately!

Let’s not mention the remaining Yan army that has retreated, let’s talk about the Jiangzhou city wall.

On the city wall, there was a roar of joy, and everyone was crying and laughing.

Defended, they defended Jiangzhou City again!

Inside the city tower.

Liu Wencai was already laughing so wildly.

Dong Cheng was also so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.

They all congratulated Zhu Xiuyuan. The bamboo tube firecrackers were really useful, and they were of great use!

Just now, they were on the city wall, and when they heard the sound, they almost thought that the entire city wall was about to collapse...

However, Zhu Xiuyuan had no time to take care of Liu Wencai, Dong Cheng and others.

Because his little wife was frightened and was shrinking in his arms to beg for favor.

Because Dong Shuzhen arrived later and did not know about the bamboo tube firecrackers in advance.

After lighting the many firecrackers, Zhu Xiuyuan remembered this section, but it was already too late...

Every woman is inherently afraid of things that explode and make loud noises.

What's more, this is a scene where thousands of guns are firing.

Dong Shuzhen was so frightened that she almost fell into the city.

Fortunately, the old beggar had a sharp eye and was able to pick it up and bring it to the tower.

Zhu Xiuyuan hugged her gently and comforted her for a while before Dong Shuzhen recovered.

However, she still refused to leave, huddled tightly in her husband's arms, cowardly, asking for credit and favor...

On the beam of the city tower, the old beggar was deep in thought.

He thought to himself: "Those little firecrackers, when used in large quantities, can have such a miraculous effect... How did Zhu Xiaozi come up with it? How many secrets does he have?"

The old beggar frowned, stopped drinking, and fell into deep thought.

…

The Yan army's camp and the Chinese army's tent.

Outside the big tent, the chief counselor and a group of generals were waiting for him, standing with their hands lowered and their faces different.

"Your Highness... spare... ah..."

Waves of screams and pleas for mercy came from the tent, mixed with the sound of fists hitting the flesh.

There were also angry shouts from the fourth prince of Yan Kingdom.

It was a mess and crackling noise.

The counselors and generals outside the big tent looked at each other, but also secretly rejoiced.

Just now, the defeated army returned to camp, and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was furious.

He smashed the table and kicked over the chairs, acting like a madman.

Seeing this scene, the chief counselor and the generals who had been with Zhao Pu for a long time did not dare to speak carelessly.

But by chance, a new general, who had only been with Zhao Pu for less than a month, risked his own life to persuade him.

As a result, Zhao Pu "identified" him.

He grabbed the man's collar with one hand, lifted it violently, threw the man to the ground, and started punching and kicking him...

When the chief counselors saw this, they were so frightened that they fled out of the tent and hid outside.

"Spare your life... Your Highness... Your Highness... Ah! Ah! Ah..."

The tragic scene in the big tent was still unfolding, but no one outside the tent moved. They were all waiting for His Highness the Fourth Prince to vent his anger and then return to normal.

As time went by, the screams gradually became weaker.

After waiting for a few more breaths, a majestic voice sounded from the big tent: "Come in, everyone!"

Everyone felt relieved, it seemed that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince was back to normal, and they entered the big tent one by one.

The unlucky guy was lying on the ground, his energy was like a gossamer.

The whole tent was in a mess, with broken tables and chairs, candlesticks toppled over, and flags all over the ground, as if it had experienced a catastrophe.

The chief counselor and others were quite calm because they had seen this kind of scene many times.

Several soldiers entered the account, carried away the unfortunate guy, briefly packed up the furnishings in the account, and then exited the account.

Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom, was at the top, with his back to everyone, his hands clasped behind his back, looking up at a huge topographic map.

The chief counselor stepped forward and stood silently behind Zhao Pu, while the generals were divided into two rows, each standing on one side.

After waiting for a long time, Zhao Pu showed no move.

The counselors and generals also followed suit, and no one in the entire tent made a sound.

"You saw the battle just now with your own eyes..."

Zhao Pu slowly turned around and faced the generals who were divided into two teams.

The chief counselor also turned around, always standing behind Zhao Pu.

"Our army was defeated!"

Zhao Pu's voice suddenly rose, sounding like a lion's roar.

"Since this prince led the army, we have never experienced such a defeat!"

Zhao Pu glanced at all the generals, his broad and square face was extremely solemn.

"The retreating soldiers fled and were trampled to the death of countless people. There was no law! This was a rout! A rout like a dike bursting!"

Zhao Pu spoke every word and said through gritted teeth: "This prince will definitely be ashamed of his life with this defeat!"

"Until Jiangzhou is broken, this prince will not retreat!"

"If we don't capture that little thief Zhu Xiuyuan alive, the hatred in my heart will never go away!"

"Your Highness, my subordinates are incompetent, please punish me!" All the generals bowed in unison.

Zhao Pu ignored all the generals.

Then he said: "After this battle, our army's morale has been severely damaged, and we will no longer be able to fight in a short period of time."

Zhao Pu walked two steps with his hands clasped behind his hands, and finally sat down on his seat.

"Everyone, if you have any good ideas, you might as well speak up." Zhao Pu began to ask for advice.

The generals are all rough men who only know how to fight. When it comes to giving advice and suggestions, it is not their specialty.

While looking at each other, they couldn't help but look at the chief counselor.

When the chief strategist saw this, he took half a step diagonally and bowed: "What your Highness just said is true. The morale of our army has been severely damaged and we will not be able to fight again in the short term."

"However, Your Highness can order the slaughter of pigs and sheep to reward the three armies. After three or two days, when our army has regained its energy, it will not be too late to fight again."

"Well, this prince has exactly what he means." Zhao Pu nodded.

"Your Highness, the reason why our army was defeated was all because of the strange weapon Jiangzhou used at the end."
