PS: what about the heroes fighting for the prefix? The top ten of the monthly ticket list is not far away.
The killing outside the city didn't seem to calm Fang Xie's heart. When he returned to Dingyuan City, he still carried the Chaolu knife in his hand. The killing intention was still so strong on the blade without blood. The soldiers escorted the prisoners into the city, and the carriage that had not been placed in time was directly pulled into the city.
The three foreigners captured alive constantly looked at the black robed man walking with his head hanging slightly in front of him in fear. They felt that he was not alone.
How can people use fire dragons as weapons?
How can a man bounce a bullet off with a blade?
"The general seems very melancholy"
Chen Xiaoru kicked a dragging prisoner back into the team. Looking at Fang Xie's back, he always felt that today's general looked so lonely. Chen Xiaoru doesn't know what kind of emotion can affect the general like this, but such a quiet general makes people particularly afraid, even he feels afraid.
The garrison of Dingyuan city held the prisoners well, and took more than a dozen officers into biejiang's house, including the three surviving foreigners. Perhaps because they didn't know Fang Xie, it seemed that their fear was less than that of Nanyan people.
Fang Xie sat down in his chair and put the Chaolu knife on the table in front of him.
He took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and then said to the foreigner standing in front, "I'll give you five minutes to make clear the purpose of your coming and the purpose of the forces behind you."
The shopkeeper of the goods all over the world quickly translated it again. The foreigner didn't seem to feel any threat in Fang Xie's tone, or Fang Xie's beautiful face weakened his previous fear, so he shook his head and didn't speak. Fang Xie picked up the Chaolu knife from the table and cut the foreigner in two with one knife.
He pointed to the second foreigner with a Chaolu knife: "now it's for you."
The second foreigner was a bearded man. He really didn't expect the Han man to be so violent. He only asked one question, and then he cut his companion into two bodies. The smell of blood and stench from the internal organs rushed into his nose and went straight into his brain.
He looked at the pool of flesh and blood and began to vomit violently before long.
Fang Xie waited for him to vomit until he had nothing to vomit. When he retched yellow water there, he tapped the table with his fingers. Beard trembled with fear and subconsciously stepped back.
"We... We are from the Principality of Ross."
He shook his hands, wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "I came to Nanyan under the command of the general to help Nanyan's army resist your army. We know we are wrong. Now we are your prisoner... No, it's your servant. I'd like to say everything I know. I just hope you can leave us a living hope."
Fang Xie said after the shopkeeper who translated the goods all over the world said, "everyone will have a chance to survive. Whether to give it to me or not is up to you."
"Long ago, the emperor of the state of Chu sent someone to contact Archduke Ross, hoping to use the power of Archduke Ross to jointly fight against the state of Sui and recapture the land robbed by the state of Sui. But Archduke Ross was not very enthusiastic. Although he received many gifts from the emperor of the state of Chu, he was unwilling to let the army leave the state of Ross."
Beard sorted his thoughts and began to talk.
"Since the Aegean empire was destroyed, although the oplu Empire did not continue to attack, but recognized the status of princes, everyone knows that the oplu empire is a beast. It is just tired in the war with the Aegean Empire and needs a rest. When it has a rest, the outcome will be the same. Therefore, Archduke Ross wants to leave his army with him At least there's a chance to escape. "
"This matter has been delayed for a long time. Although the envoys of the state of Chu kept finding Archduke Ross, he still didn't promise. Later, he really couldn't delay. He decided to send six mages to help the state of Chu. Archduke Ross thought it was no problem for the six mages to help the state of Chu kill some people."
"Later, I don't know how the oplu Empire knew about it. He sent people to the Principality of Ross to urge grand duke Ross to send troops. Grand duke Ross thought the oplu empire was going to attack, so he didn't dare to send troops. So he was assassinated before long."
"How do you know so much?"
Fang Xie asked.
After translation, the beard said sadly: "I was the close bodyguard of grand duke Ross. I saw him assassinated and saw him fall in front of me... Not long after that, the Russian Empire sent an army to take over the Principality of Ross. Then the general began to make direct contact with the people of the state of Chu. I didn't know much about the later events. After grand duke Ross died, we became friends Like slaves, they were scolded. "
"We didn't want to come here, but the people of the opru empire will kill all our families because we don't come."
"How many people have you come?"
"Five hundred people, most of them in Dali city."
The beard was afraid of Fang Xie and didn't believe it. When he spoke, his hand unconsciously gestured: "The Principality of Ross is not strong. Even in the original Aegean Empire, it can only be regarded as a second-class principality, and the army has never exceeded 3000. But the Principality of Ross is the fire gun warehouse of the Aegean Empire, because there are iron ore and a large number of workshops, and half of the fire guns equipped by the Aegean empire are made from the Principality of Ross."
"So, although we only came 500 people, we brought at least 5000 muskets."
"Where's the gun?"
Fang Xie asked.
Beard seemed surprised at Fang Xie's understanding of artillery. After looking at Fang Xie, he replied: "The firearms of the Aegean empire are still relatively backward. Because of the corruption of the Empire, no one has continued to study the evolution of firearms, so no powerful artillery has been built at all. Although it can be cast, there are too many waste artillery products, and it often explodes. The artillery brought this time is provided by the opru Empire, which is very powerful, and is equipped with two kinds of shells."
"Two?"
"Yes, one is a shell with average explosive power but strong penetration. The other is a series of shells opened by lower firearms after blasting, which has great lethality."
"Aupru empire..."
Fang Jie murmured, and a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.

Jiangbei Road
Sui army camp
The tiger leaned against a low wall and looked at the river in the distance. It was foggy and could not see clearly. Luo Tu's rebels had all withdrawn to the south of the Yangtze River. It can be seen that Luo Tu and those people in Jiangnan Tonggu Academy must have reached some agreement. Otherwise, his army could not enter the south of the Yangtze River so easily. When Luo Yao led his troops into the south of the Yangtze River, Tonggu academy did not block it because they knew Dao Luoyao will leave soon, but now it's different. Luotu needs a foothold.
The Sui army camped in the north of the Yangtze River, but did not dare to get too close.
Luo Tu's rebels have a navy in their hands, which is much larger than that of the Sui army. After the division of the Yangtze River Navy, the strongest part was taken away by Wang Yiqu and rebelled with Gao Kaitai in the northwest. The second part was subdued by Luo Yao and became a rebel Navy. A small part returned to the imperial court, but its strength is really limited. The smallest part belongs to Fang Xie, and its combat strength is not as good as Wang Yiqu 20% of the Navy.
Now the Imperial Navy can cruise back and forth in front of the north bank. If you move more to the south, you will be hit head-on by luotu's rebel Navy. Since luotu retreated to the south of the Yangtze River, the Navy seems to be stronger.
But puhu is not in the mood to think about this now. His mind is full of the armored general. He doesn't believe that Yang Jian will kill the little emperor. He firmly believes that the big brother is still the big brother 200 years ago. The little emperor is his descendant and his direct descendant. How can he kill the little emperor?
The eldest brother once told him that he came to defend the Yangs. He would not take away the throne of the little emperor. When the four sides were settled, the eldest brother would take him away. Isn't this a good ending, but why did so many changes happen when he left Chang'an City?
No matter what happened, puhu never wavered in his trust in big brother.
Since the death of their father, the only person who is kind to him in the world is the eldest brother. Even the second brother who fought side by side at the beginning is unwilling to be too close to the tiger because of his character. The eldest brother is generous and the second brother is uninhibited, but he is lonely. This time he returns to this bright world, the character of the tiger has changed a lot. Maybe it is only Dugu Aotian in the past 200 years Because of the old scalper's company, he became more cheerful when he saw so many living people.
In any case, he did not believe that the generous big brother would poison his descendants.
Before the big brother fell asleep, he had a long talk with him.
That scene echoed in the tiger's mind from time to time.
Under the dim light, Yang Jian, who is obviously old, leans back on the chair. Although it seems that his body is old, there is a look of surprise in his eyes. It is a light of hope. From Yang Jian's eyes, Pu Hu sees the hope that an old man should not have.
"Pounce on the tiger"
"Huh?"
"What if the descendants of the Yang family are unable to protect the empire after my death?"
Yang Jian asked.
After thinking about it seriously, puhu replied, "that's the matter of the Yang family. Brother, why are you worried about this? You should believe that your descendants can continue this empire."
"But I'm afraid"
Yang Jian said, "I'm afraid that the Empire I worked hard to build will collapse. I'm afraid that the future generations of the people I killed will take revenge. Therefore, if there is a chance that I can live and guard the Empire all the time, do you think I should seize the opportunity?"
"Not dead?"
Fluttering tiger was stunned for a moment. He didn't think it was really possible, so he answered casually: "if there is such a chance, of course, it's good. But who can escape the cycle of life and death?"
"You said yes, that's good."
Yang Jian smiled and said to the tiger, "so, would you like to help me protect this empire and my future generations?"
"Yes!"
The tiger answered quickly, because there was no doubt about it.
"I beg you one thing."
Yang Jian pointed to a porcelain vase on the table: "That's a pill prepared by the old Dean himself. If you are willing to help me, take it. The old Dean will try to make me fall into a deep sleep and never die. When there is a crisis in the big Sui Dynasty, I will wake up and save the big Sui Dynasty. But I need someone to watch me all the time and wake me up at the critical moment. Would you like to? After taking these pills, your body will change and your health will be better Old age will almost stop. You can live for many years. "
"Ah?"
The tiger was stunned: "what medicine is this?"
"It should be said... It's Gu."
Yang Jian said slowly, "there are 15 pills in this bottle. Swallow one every 20 years. Because the poison that maintains your body has only 20 years of life, you must eat new poison before the poison dies. Your cultivation can bear it, but I can't... if I swallow this pill, I'm afraid I'll be killed immediately."
"Good!"
Fluttering tiger promised without hesitation: "I'll guard brother, I'll wake you up..."
Yang Jian took the tiger's hand and said excitedly, "our brothers created the great Sui Dynasty together, and our brothers will work together to maintain the great Sui Dynasty. I know you will help me, and you will always help me. You and I take care of the Empire and my descendants together. It's like a big umbrella to protect them from rain and snow."
"Big brother!"
When puhu thought of this, he suddenly felt something strange around him. When he looked up, he found that Yang Jian didn't know when to stand beside him.
"Flutter tiger, remember what you promised me?"
Yang Jian asked.
The tiger nodded: "remember!"
Yang Jian said, "then believe me, everything I do is for the great Sui Dynasty."
"Good!"
Puhu nodded again, holding back all his questions. It seems that this has always been the case. He unconditionally agrees to whatever brother says. But this time, he didn't even notice it. Before saying the word "good", he hesitated, although the hesitation was so short.
