Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 302

Chapter 302 Heavenly Lightning To Send
The next morning, Qin Mubai did not appear in the backyard of the Governor’s Mansion. Instead, he left Lanzhou with a group of iron armor at dawn.

Princess Gaoyang carefully lay on the ladder and peeped for a long time, but she did not see Qin Mubai’s figure. She even sniffed from the cold and cursed angrily in the end.

Qin Mubai arrived at his secret military base, Iron Valley.

After this period of management and care, “Iron Valley” has a new look. In the mountains and gullies that used to be filled with mountains and rivers, many houses had been built, and a flat plain had been opened up for use as a school field, and leisure flower beds and lawn for shepherds had been tidied up. In fact, a pond had even been opened up, and the green spring in the mountains had been poured into it, and some fish had been raised.

Although not to mention the paradise of birds and flowers, but the living environment has obviously improved a lot. This proved that it was easy to do things with money, and that there were many people and great strength.

A row of warehouses was heavily guarded, and no one was allowed to approach. Inside were forty red-robed cannons and countless gunpowder shells. The two hundred artillery units that had been dispatched earlier had practically been trained and were ready to launch. Right now, Qin Shi and Tu Youhai were already studying Earth Lightning according to Qin Mubai’s drawings. If this fellow could be torn out, it would undoubtedly be another huge achievement. The group of orphan apprentices who had originally been left without food and clothing were mostly begging in the streets. Now that they had food and clothing, they had hope for the future. They were all focused on their studies. It seemed that the Iron Valley’s talents were also hopeful in the future.

Qin Mubai took away the thirty cannons and the two hundred artillery.

In the Battle of Da Fei Chuan, they had to play a decisive role!

However, before the cannon officially appeared, it could only hide in a wooden chest and use an oxcart to drag it away from the mountains. Because the mountain road was not very near, Qin Mubai had exhausted a lot of effort to transport them to Lanzhou City the next night and hid them in the Governor’s Mansion.

Qin Shubao looked at the cannons and asked in surprise, “Sanlang, what is the use of such a divine object?”

Qin Mubai smiled and said, “Father, this is a secret decree of His Majesty the Emperor that allowed me to create the ‘Red Cannon’. I once demonstrated it to His Majesty in the barren mountain of the Northern Garden of the Great Ming Palace. Once the cannon is fired, the target will be burned to pieces within a radius of ten feet.”

“Oh, you are using it to attack Da Feichuan, aren’t you?” Qin Shubao suddenly realized, “Is it really this miraculous? Let me see.”

“Farewell, Father.” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “There is no place to try in Lanzhou City. The moment the cannon blasts out, the heavens and earth collapse and the wall falls to the ground. I’m afraid that the army and people of Lanzhou will panic.”

Qin Shubao had no choice but to give up. He curiously looked around for a while and questioned, “However, this thing is extremely heavy. It must be very difficult to carry. I see that you are all used oxcarts. How can you go on the stage? With the speed of oxcarts, walking from here to Dafeichuan, I’m afraid that your father and I are already dead of old age.”

“Haha, I won’t!” Qin Mubai smiled and said, “It was only because the mountain path was rugged that I had no choice but to use the oxcart.” In a place like the plain wilderness, it could be trailed in a light carriage. At the very least, it wouldn’t be slower than a foot soldier’s march. However, this was indeed one of its major flaws. It was extremely heavy and heavy, so it was difficult to carry. Moreover, he was afraid of the rain. The barrels are rust-prone, the mud is harder to carry on rainy days, and the most frightening thing is that the lead ammunition will break if it gets wet. ”

“Yes, everything has its advantages and disadvantages.” Qin Shubao nodded and said, “Such a colossus is most suitable for guarding strongholds and waiting for work, or advancing step by step. First, use the cavalry to buy time and space, and then use them to deal a devastating blow to the enemy.”

“Father is wise.” Qin Mubai raised her eyebrows and smiled. “Now, you understand why I have set up ten ambush plans, right?”

Qin Shubao smiled and nodded. He looked at the black barrel in front of him with great interest and said, “I just don’t know how powerful this thing is. Tibet has 60,000 troops. How many can it kill?”

“Killing the enemy isn’t the most important thing. Mighty courage is the most important thing.” Qin Mubai said, “An important reason why Tibet is not brave enough to fight is because they are strong and barbaric.” Barbarism also meant ignorance and ignorance. Facing such a blow, they might guess what kind of heavenly might is descending to help our Tang army. Dozens of cannons descended, and the ground was shattered into large craters. Smoke billowed and flames raged. Have they ever seen such a formation and fought such a war? ”

Qin Shubao’s expression couldn’t help but change, “I’m afraid … facing such a scene for father, he will also feel fear. No matter how strong his martial arts skills are, no matter how heroic and fearless he is, he can’t resist the might of heaven and earth!”

“That’s right.” Qin Mubai smiled and said confidently, “Tomorrow, I will let Xue Rengui lead the elites of the Yi Manor to meet Xue Wanjun in Shan City and implement the first half of the strategy. I reckon that as long as there isn’t such a big mistake as last time, we should be able to successfully restrain the Tibetans at the bank of Qinghai Lake in Dafei Sichuan. At that time, it will be my turn to play. ”

“Alright! Father will wait and see if this red cannon is as powerful as you boast!” Qin Shubao’s expression became more serious as he said, “Sanlang, war is no joke. You must be sure to win. Don’t be too optimistic and take risks.”

“Yes, I know.”

The next morning, Qin Mubai sent troops to the middle of the military camp and swore an oath. Xue Rengui commanded his two thousand plus elite cavalry, and his armor was neatly flagged. The Qin Clan’s father and son stood on the Dianjiang Stage, extremely eye-catching.

Princess Gaoyang sniffed and snickered, “I didn’t crawl for nothing today. I saw it! It seems like I’m still going to fight. It’s so serious and formal!”-Oh, Mubai isn’t going to fight too, is he? I think I saw Rengui Xue take the flag he gave me! ”

“Princess, can you chat alone?” The maidservant below the ladder burst into laughter.

“Beg for a fight!” Princess Gao Yang cursed and said, “Hurry up and call a soldier to the Governor’s Mansion. Is Mu Bai going to go out to battle as well?”

“Yes.”

Xue Rengui led the army out of the camp, and more than two thousand riders mounted the formation neatly and lightweight, quickly leaving the field. Fortunately, Princess Gao Yang was secretly delighted that Qin Mubai was still on the Dianjiang Stage.

At this time, a few more cavalry ran towards her. She hurriedly shrank her head and climbed down the ladder. She smiled proudly and said, “I’ll hide quickly now. Don’t let anyone shoot an arrow at me to assassinate me!”

After sending Xue Rengui away, Qin Mubai went to the school grounds and checked the cannons, shells, and other items for the last time. At the same time, a large number of craftsmen were also following Qin Mubai’s instructions and stepping up their efforts to modify the trucks that towed the cannons. Previously, the carriage in Iron Valley was only a crude horse carriage, and it was only suitable for transportation on mountain roads. If it was to be formally used for marching, it was obviously too cumbersome and inconvenient.

It would take at least two days to finish all of this. Once the project was completed, Qin Mubai should also leave. By the time he arrived in Dafei Chuan, the ten-sided ambush would be over, and the cannons would be in use. The timing was quite tight.

At this time, the Baiji officer sent to the Princess Xingyuan to guard her ran over to the trench camp to find Qin Mubai and said that the Princess had sent him to ask if he was going to go on the expedition as well.

Qin Mubai thought for a moment. She was leaving Lanzhou in two days. She didn’t know when she would be back. It was time to tell her.

Thus, he went straight to Xingyuan.

Princess Gaoyang was overjoyed to see Qin Mubai. In order to avoid making his heart skip a beat, she even purposely chased away the four maids and sat alone with Qin Mubai while drinking tea.

“Mubai, why did you leave when I just arrived?” Hearing Qin Mubai say that he was going to leave Lanzhou for a while, Princess Gaoyang’s mood immediately became much worse.

“There’s nothing I can do. After all, I’m here to lead the troops to fight. I’m not here for leisure.” Qin Mubai said, “You came at a good time. At this time, there is a big battle to be fought. You must have me.”

“Why?” Princess Gao Yang was unhappy and said angrily, “Apart from you, there are also Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche’s many generals. All of them are high-ranking officials, and they eat more than you. Furthermore, they are so arrogant that they can’t get along with you. Why not let them go to war?”

Qin Mubai chuckled and said, “Ling’er, that’s not how the debt is settled. Public and private, one yard for one yard. This great battle concerns the situation in Helong and the future of Lanzhou. Xue Wanjun? Indeed, he is in charge this time.”

“Why?” Princess Gaoyang was even more unhappy, “You are the son-in-law, why are you still working under him?”

“Haha!” Qin Mubai was amused, “Why do you have any objections?”

“I just have an opinion!” Princess Gao Yang pouted her lips and said angrily, “Either don’t let you go out to battle, or you’ll be the head coach! Now that you’ve gone out to battle, I’ll let you be Xue Wanjun’s subordinate. I know his character. The credit for winning the battle belongs to me, and the responsibility for losing is shifted to my subordinates-hey, how could Qi Bi be pushed aside by him like this?”

“You really know a lot of things.” Qin Mubai shook his head and smiled, “But this time, it’s impossible.”

“Why?” Princess Gaoyang asked curiously.

“Because … it’s a military secret, I can’t tell you.” Qin Mubai smiled.

“You’re not going to tell me, are you?” Princess Gaoyang rolled her eyes. “I’ll go find Duke Yi and tell him that you bullied me and indecently assaulted me!”

“Go! Times have changed. This move is now obsolete and useless.” Qin Mubai smiled indifferently, “My father would love for you to give birth to a son for me now.”

“Eh … I’m not ashamed!” Princess Gaoyang cursed, but her face turned red.

“Strange, why haven’t I seen your four maids today?” Qin Mubai pretended to be curious and looked around.

“What, you miss them?” Princess Gaoyang said sarcastically.

“Don’t say anything, there really is a bit.” Qin Mubai smiled wickedly and said, “No matter what, it is … a husband and wife who have been grateful for a hundred days in a single night!”

“I want to go back to Chang’an!” Princess Gaoyang shouted angrily.

“Don’t worry. After the war is over, I’ll go back with you. We still have a wedding ceremony to celebrate, right?” Qin Mubai laughed heartlessly.

“Qin Mu Bai!” Princess Gaoyang was furious and jumped up, “I’ll fight you!”

“Haha!” Qin Mubai laughed loudly and wrestled with her on the couch. Taking advantage of this situation, he held Princess Gaoyang in his arms and pressed her under his body.

Qin Mubai couldn’t help but be elated as she kissed the beautiful woman in her red lips with a smile on her face.

“I studied for so long last time, what kind of virtue do you have?”

“Don’t do such a thing. I’m so embarrassed!” Princess Gaoyang blushed with embarrassment and turned her face away. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, evidently snickering.

“Oh, then I’ll have to go find them.” Qin Mubai was about to stand up.

“You dare!!” Princess Gao Yang was so anxious that she flicked her arms and hooked Qin Mubai’s neck in one round. Her two jade legs also hooked onto Qin Mubai’s knees unceremoniously and hung on his body like a sloth.

“Heh, how could there be such a domineering wife like you?” Qin Mubai said angrily, “If you don’t want to have a bridal chamber with me, why are you not allowed to have a bridal chamber with me?”

“No, no, just no!” Princess Gaoyang proudly shook her head, “Wait for me, Heavenly Sunflower … ah!”

I slipped my tongue!

Qin Mubai laughed heartily, so angry that Princess Gaoyang gritted her teeth and had the urge to bite him.
