“No, you don’t know how to blow up the city gate. I’ll go. It’s not dangerous. No one can hurt me.”

Su Qing spoke with confidence and arrogance. She was afraid Xiao Zeyu couldn’t control his timing and blow himself up.

Without waiting for Xiao Zeyu’s reply, she jumped off her horse and placed all the grenades on the ground. There were still 18 grenades left.

“Shuisheng, take these two grenades. After entering Jin City, blow up the military camp first to reduce our casualties.”

Su Qing handed Xiao Zeyu two grenades. The remaining 16 were enough to blow up the city gate.

Xiao Zeyu took the two grenades and saw Su Qing split the remaining 16 grenades into two bundles. He wasn’t confident that she would be able to pull out all eight of them at the same time.

Feeling that the grenade would explode before she could even pull the eight leads, Xiao Zeyu asked Su Qing worriedly.

“Qing’er, isn’t this too dangerous?”

“There’s no danger in using it.”

Su Qing demonstrated how to roll all eight wires onto her fingers. She smiled at Xiao Zeyu and said, “Just pull them apart and throw them out.”

“I know. I’ll go.”

Xiao Zeyu had learned how to use it and suggested that he blow up the city gate. However, Su Qing had already mounted her horse. Before she mounted her horse, she smiled sweetly. After she mounted her horse, she was full of killing intent, like a fierce falcon about to attack.

This aura was unstoppable. Just like Su Qing said, no one could hurt her. n.(o((V-/E.-l.-b-(1/-n

Su Qing held a bundle of grenades in her hand and placed the remaining bundle into the bag in front of Ji Shuisheng. In reality, she was putting it into the system.

“Xiao Qi, follow me and throw it later.”

Su Qing ordered Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi was incredibly excited to be entrusted with such an important task. Her blood boiled as she replied loudly.

“Yes, Xiao Qi will complete the master’s mission.”

Su Qing clamped the Big Black Horse between her legs and shouted, “Giddyup.”

The Big Black Horse galloped on the snow and rushed towards the city gate. Its owner was awe-inspiring, and even the horse was filled with killing intent. Its big eyes flashed with a sharp light.

The patrolling soldiers on the city wall ignored Su Qing’s shout. A woman could not pose a threat to Jin City.

Not until they saw Su Qing riding her horse toward the city gate did they realize something was wrong. They lay on the battlements and shouted.

“What are you doing? Hurry up and leave, or else we’ll shoot arrows.”

“Throw it.”

Su Qing saw that the distance was enough and ordered Xiao Qi. She rolled the eight wires around her fingers and pulled them together, throwing them towards the city gate.

Xiao Zeyu watched Su Qing nervously from behind. He saw her throw the grenade at the city gate and heard two loud explosions.

Su Qing’s whole body was on fire, and she stopped the horse, watching the heavy city gate being blown to bits.

“Kill them!”

Xiao Zeyu shouted, leading 200 soldiers towards the blazing city gates. The guards on the city walls were so shocked by the explosion that their ears let out a long cry like a golden bell. They felt like the city walls were shaking like an earth dragon had flipped over.

They saw Xiao Zeyu leading his elite troops into Jin City when they realized what was happening. They hurriedly picked up the alarm gong and struck it with all their might. The soldiers who were playing the trombone also recklessly played the alarm trombone.

Xiao Zeyu was too familiar with Jin City’s defenses. He knew exactly where the military camp was. When the trombone sounded, he had already led his elite soldiers to the military camp.

Two grenades were thrown at the camp. With two explosions, the fire started. The Wan Family soldiers who had been sleeping jumped up to get their weapons and were blown up into the sky.

The remaining soldiers were all panicking. They didn’t even bother to put on their clothes. They grabbed their weapons and ran out of the tent. Xiao Zeyu was already prepared. He led his soldiers to charge forward and chop off their heads like carrots when they came out.

Su Qing wiped out all the soldiers on the city wall and rushed over to help Xiao Zeyu. The two brought elite soldiers to wash the Wan Clan Army camp in blood.

Screams and shouts rose one after another. The fire dyed the night red. The Wan Family Army guards in Jin City were all killed by Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu.

This was a great victory for them. They had used only 200 soldiers to wipe out 8oo elite soldiers in Jin City. This was the advantage of speed.

In the official relay station, the Wan Family Army, who had escaped from the coal mine, were stunned when they heard the explosion. Why don’t they chase after them and fight?

“Quickly help defend the city.”

The injured commander ordered the soldiers who had escaped from the coal mine to take their weapons and help the Wan Family Army of Jin City defend the city. As soon as they left the relay station, they saw a group of iron cavalry running towards the relay station. The woman running at the front was the female fiend who had slaughtered them in the coal mine during the day.

“Kill them.”

Su Qing shouted at the soldiers behind her. Her unmistakable voice carried a chilling, killing intent.

These Wan Family Army soldiers who had escaped from the coal mine had been scared out of their wits by Su Qing. Although they wanted to fight for the Wan Family Army, they were not strong enough and could only be beaten up.

Su Qing still did not kill the commander. She chased after him out of Jin City.

Watching him flee toward the capital, Su Qing turned her horse around and returned to the city.

The city gate had lost its value. Xiao Zeyu brought the soldiers who knew carpentry to collect wood overnight and make a new set of city gates.

Su Qing looked at Xiao Zeyu’s busy figure and felt slightly regretful. Using a grenade to blow up the city gate might seem like a good idea, but it was a useless gate. If they took it down, it would be their city. Without the city gate, it would not be easy to defend it.

If ten thousand soldiers were attacking the city now, there would be a massive disparity in strength with the current army.

He had brought out two hundred men, but more than a dozen had died in the battle, and dozens had been injured. The remaining elite soldiers were only around a hundred.

She concluded that she could not fight like this next time. It was not like she could not climb up the city wall. To be able to kill the soldiers guarding the city quickly was simply using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken.

Su Qing searched for a blacksmith shop on the street to make up for her mistake. She found it in the western part of the city, but it was already closed. She broke the lock and entered the house. She lit the furnace and turned on the windmill. After a whole night of tinkling, she made over 30 hand grenade molds.

Xiao Zeyu led the army to build the city gates overnight. The commoners of Jin City did not dare to come out to watch the commotion. They hid at home in fear for the entire night and did not dare to sleep. They feared the southern barbarians or the Hu people would attack the city.

Those who had tunnels hid in them. Ever since Hu and Nanman attacked Jin City from time to time, many families dug tunnels to avoid the flames of war.

Xiao Zeyu was busy until daybreak. The construction of the city gate was not ideal. Even if he did not want to disturb the people, he had to find carpenters and wood.

Only then did he realize that Su Qing had disappeared. She had only said last night that she could not let the Wan Family Army have a good night’s sleep, so she had led her troops to the courier station to chase away those people in the coal mine. After that, she had not been seen.

“Have you seen Su Qing?”

Xiao Zeyu asked the guard, and the guard knew.

“Miss Su said that she went to look for a blacksmith shop. She asked you not to worry and to hurry up and build the city gate.”

Blacksmith shop?
