The Doctor’s Three-Time Marriage

Unlike before, this time the Liang army did not start attacking the city as soon as they arrived, but instead formed a formation under the city.

Xing Ji stood on the tower, watching the Liang army split a road and the white-haired veteran riding up from behind, his expression darkened: It was Peng Wei!

Xuanbei City had not received any news that Peng Wei was in Nanping City, and he had not shown up before. Xing Ji felt that there was only one possibility. Peng Wei had just arrived and had to be forced to go to the battlefield. He, a veteran who has suffered serious injuries and is in poor health, will be a forward? Situ Xie’s sinister intentions are clearly revealed!

Xing Ji's father and Peng Wei had been friends for many years, although the two countries had different positions. When Peng Wei was seriously injured two years ago, it was Su Liang and Gu Ling who saved his life. It was he who single-handedly helped restore temporary peace between the two countries.

Xing Ji knew very well that Peng Wei did not come voluntarily. The three descendants of the Peng family have encountered a lot of troubles before, and they have long decided to take off their armor and live a peaceful life.

As the most heroic veteran of the Liang Kingdom with a lifetime of outstanding military achievements, as soon as Peng Wei arrived at the front of the army, the Liang Kingdom's army roared with cheers.

Qiu Jing grew up in Xuanbei City and had been in the army for several years. He was very familiar with Peng Wei and knew that he had always had a good relationship with Qian Guo. He naturally guessed what Situ Xie asked Peng Wei to do.

In this way, Qiu Jing, who was about to lead his army out of the city to fight, climbed onto the tower and planned to discuss with Xing Ji how to deal with it.

Just when Qiu Jing stood next to Xing Ji, he saw Peng Wei draw his sword and point it at him, "I am here on the emperor's orders to kill the traitors! Qiu Jing, do you dare to fight in the city?"

As soon as these words came out, the morale of the Liang army, which had been unsuccessful in attacking the city for half a month and whose resentment towards Qiu Jing had reached its peak, started to shout again.

However, Xing Ji could tell that Peng Wei was out of breath, and his voice could not hide the fatigue.

Not to mention that Peng Wei was old and in poor health and must have traveled day and night without a good rest. Even when Peng Wei was in the best condition in his life, he was no match for Qiu Jing in terms of martial arts.

Xing Ji and Qiu Jing looked at each other. They both knew what Situ Xie wanted without saying anything.

If Qiu Jing dared not accept the challenge, or gave way to Peng Wei, who was obviously much stronger than him but could not bear to kill him, Qian Guo would think that he showed mercy to Peng Wei and doubt his loyalty to Qian Guo.

And if Qiu Jing only regards Peng Wei as an enemy general, engages in a normal battle, and kills him, this will further arouse the hatred of Liang Kingdom towards him and Qian Kingdom, and then they will attack Xuanbei City desperately.

In any case, Situ Xie was sure that using Peng Wei would be beneficial to Liang. As for Peng Wei's family in Yaocheng, he would not dare to disobey orders. As for whether he would die, Situ Xie didn't care at all. He might even hope that he would die tragically under Xuanbei City, completing the most powerful morale boost for the Liang army.

"Master Hou, this..." Qiu Jing was really in a dilemma. This was wartime, so he couldn't be emotional, but he didn't want to fight Peng Wei at all.

Since there was no response from Qianguo after Peng Wei called for formation, the Liangguo army began to shout "traitor", and the noise became louder and louder.

Xing Ji turned his head and whispered a few words to Bai Yang, and Bai Yang left quickly.

A moment later, a sharp arrow shot through the air and hit the horse under Peng Wei!

The shouts of the Liang army suddenly stopped. Peng Wei saw it and hid, but he did not hide away. His horse was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, and he himself fell to the ground and was quickly lifted to the rear.

Xing Ji looked down from a high position and said loudly, "What kind of traitor? General Qiu just abandoned the dark and turned to the light! If any of you want to become a member of the Qian country like General Qiu, just put down your weapons and the Qian country can protect you. At least, you don't have to worry about not being able to fill the gap in the Qian country. With a full stomach, unlike the Liang Kingdom, can you eat freely all year round? You came to fight against the Qian Country just to be full. If you can’t defeat the Qian Country, wouldn’t it be easier to just join our Qian Country?”

What happened in the scene just now and Xing Ji's shouting instantly put an end to the high morale of Liang's army. A burst of laughter broke out from Qian Guo's side.

Qiu Jing sighed slightly. This is the only way to deal with Peng Wei's call for formation. Fight or not fight, you will fall into Situ Xie's scheme. The best way is to ignore Peng Wei and not mention him at all.

At this time, Mo Yan, who was behind the Liangguo army, was watching coldly and remained silent. He Wei snorted coldly, "What's the use of letting that loser named Peng go up? It's just a waste of time."

Mo Yan shook his head, "It worked, but it failed with him."

He Wei sneered, "Next, it's time to show Qian Guo some color."

"Explosives are limited and not omnipotent. It is still not easy for Liang Guo to win the war." Mo Yan said coldly.

"But it will be much easier with the help of the master." He Wei was not just complimenting Mo Yan. From the look on his face, he really thought so.

…

Seeing the trebuchet launched by Liang's army, Xing Ji did not let Qiu Jing lead his troops out of the city to fight. Today we just need to defend the city.

He Wei sneered, "They really thought it was an ordinary stone."

Before he finished speaking, as several black "stones" flew high from the trebuchet, a group of Liang Kingdom archers suddenly rushed to the front, with a soldier beside them, lighting their arrows.

At this time, Xing Ji also ordered to release arrows. But when he saw the sudden fire in front of Liang's army, his expression changed suddenly. He thought of the reminder from Su Liang's previous letter, and immediately shouted, "Withdraw! Everyone withdraw!"

Qiu Jing raised his bow and arrow, stared at the archers below, and shot three of them to death. But unfortunately there were too many people, and it was impossible to kill them all in an instant. It was still unable to stop the clouds of flames and black "stones" from flying towards the walls and gates of Xuanbei City, about to meet.

Qiu Jing threw away his bow and arrow, but Qi Jun had already grabbed the horn and started blowing it.

The soldiers inside the city gate were waiting for orders to leave the city. Suddenly they heard the sound of the retreat horn. They were stunned for a moment, then turned and ran back.

Everything happens very quickly.

When a black "stone" hit the city gate, a ball of flames chased after it, and a loud noise made everyone inside and outside the city feel their hearts tremble suddenly.

Then, there were continuous explosions.

The solid northern wall of Xuanbei City collapsed amid the thick smoke and dim firelight.

When the city gate exploded, Xing Ji thought of Su Liang's previous letter. He jumped off the city tower and shouted "Mo Yan", but he didn't know whether Mo Yan was really there, and at this moment , even if his throat was torn, the sound was completely covered up by the huge explosion, and could not reach other people's ears at all.

Not to mention the Qian Kingdom army was in chaos, even the Liang Kingdom army was dumbfounded: When did they have such powerful weapons? Why not take it out earlier?

Only a few people knew about it. Even the soldiers who used the trebuchets did not know that the special "stones" they were assigned today were explosives, and the soldiers who shot the "rockets" only followed orders and did not know which ball of fire was shot. The power after that was actually so great.

But after the shock and consternation, the Qianguo army was afraid, but the Liangguo army quickly became excited, because the gate of Xuanbei City, which they had not breached for more than half a month, had been broken!

Xing Ji ordered to continue to retreat. The explosives were thrown against the city gate and wall. As long as people evacuated that area, they would be safe. It did not cause large-scale casualties for the time being, but they did not dare to compete with such weapons with their flesh and blood.

Qiu Jing disappeared after getting off the city tower. At this time, he and Qiu Cong drove a carriage and rushed towards the city gate in the direction of the army's retreat. In that car was the secret weapon that Su Liang had sent specially before. I have explained that the other party does not need it, and we do not need it. Now since the Liang Kingdom does not respect martial ethics, there is no need to be polite!

He Wei's eyes were shining with excitement, and he wished he could rush forward and blow open the gate of Xuanbei City with explosives himself.

Peng Wei, who was protected and retreated to the rear after being injured, looked at the collapsed Xuanbei City gate in disbelief. He turned his head and saw that the eyes of the soldiers beside him were stained with bloodthirsty light by the gunpowder smoke.

Peng Wei arrived just this morning, exhausted, and was taken hostage to the battlefield. He had no other choice. Even if Qian Guo killed him, he would admit it. When the arrow came, he could have used his horse to dodge it, but he dodged, but did not dodge seriously. He deliberately let his horse be shot, and then fell off, ending the fight.

Peng Wei knew nothing about the fact that there were such powerful explosives in the Liang army, and he couldn't understand why they were used now.

There are fireworks and firecrackers in this world, and things similar to explosives have also appeared, but they are not very powerful and are not of much use on the battlefield.

There has never been such a heart-stopping explosion like today.

Peng Wei originally thought that with the alliance between Qian State and Yan State, Liang State had no chance of winning, but now looking at the smoke in Xuanbei City, he felt uncertain again.

After the explosion subsided and a gust of wind blew, the collapsed walls of Xuanbei City and the large gap in the city gate gradually became clear.

But the army of Liang State could no longer hold back any longer and waited for an order to rush into the city and kill them heartily!

At this time, He Wei asked Mo Yan again, "Are these the only ones we will use today? Should we give them some more to blow up the soldiers of the Qian Kingdom?"

Mo Yan shook his head, "We'll decide after seeing the situation."

He Wei nodded, "My master is right. Explosives are used to attack the city, and people need to be involved in the battle, otherwise they will be used up quickly."

At this time, the horn of the Liang Kingdom's attack sounded, and the vanguard troops shouted "kill" and rushed towards the no longer existing gate of Xuanbei City.

However, just as they were about to reach the city gate, there was another loud noise, exploding a wall in front of them that had not completely collapsed!

The smoke rose again and gravel flew everywhere. The neighing sounds of frightened horses came one after another, and the faces of Liang Guo's forward soldiers who had straightened their chests and waved their swords in high spirits turned pale!

The Liang Kingdom's army rushing up from behind were also shocked by this sudden change and stopped in their tracks, looking at each other: Isn't that their Liang Kingdom's secret weapon? What happened this time?

The smile on He Wei's face froze, and he frowned fiercely, "Is there one in Qian Guo too?"

Mo Yan's eyes narrowed, "With Gu Ling here, there is nothing unusual about this. But, how did he know that Liang Guo's army would use explosives? They must have been prepared in advance, but they were not taken out until Liang Guo used them. "

He Wei's heart skipped a beat, yes, how did Gu Ling know? Logically speaking, it was impossible for him and Su Liang to know about Xingluo Island and Mo Yan, let alone that Mo Yan was helping Situ Xie!

Suddenly remembering what happened when he went to the capital of Qian Kingdom to assassinate Duanmu Chen, He Wei blurted out, "He... can predict the future?"

Mo Yan's eyes narrowed, "Maybe."

"Then what should we do now?" He Wei asked with a frown as he looked at the Liang army that had stopped attacking.

"There are only so many explosives for them today." Mo Yan shook his head, "It's up to them to advance or retreat."

He Wei felt that under such circumstances, the Liang army would not dare to enter Xuanbei City again. Who knows how many explosives are waiting for them? They are the attackers and Qian Guo is the defender. Therefore, Liang Guo can blow up the walls of Qian Guo. If Qian Guo wants to blow up, he can directly blow up the people of Liang Guo.

As the second explosion sounded at the gate of Xuanbei City, the retreat horn soon sounded among the Liang Kingdom army. The general is not Peng Wei, he is just a tool who was forced to come here. In the current situation, it is very dangerous to enter Xuanbei City rashly, so we must consider the long term.

The Liang army retreated like a tide. Their moods were ups and downs today. The dawn of final victory just appeared and disappeared again.

Mo Yan took a deep look at the collapsed walls of Xuanbei City and left with He Wei.

…

Xuanbei City.

Qiu Jing threw explosives twice, but both times they avoided Liang Guo's people. He's also a soldier, but doesn't like killing, especially something so devastating.

The fact that the city gate was blown open made the Qianguo army feel frustrated and in danger, and Xing Ji ordered that all the people in Xuanbei City evacuate to the rear today to avoid hurting innocent people, and arranged for people to rush to repair the city wall.

Even if it is repaired and easily blown up, it still makes sense, as it can at least use up some of the enemy's explosives.

The atmosphere in the meeting hall was very gloomy, the first time since the war began.

"How many more do we have?" Xing Ji asked Qiu Jing.

"Only one-tenth was used today." Qiu Jing said.

Xing Ji sighed deeply, "We have finally come to this point. I don't know where the man named Mo is and how I can convey Xiao Liang's words to him."

Qiu Cong said angrily, "In my opinion, if we can find him, just blow him into pieces! That will be the end of it! It's all his fault!"

"That man is very dangerous. Xiao Liang told us not to contact him rashly." Xing Ji shook his head. If it were that simple, Su Liang and Gu Ling wouldn't be so scared and would have to remind them every time they write in.

"I don't think their explosives are inexhaustible," Qi Jun said.

"But we still need to plan carefully how to fight next." Qiu Jing sighed. The other party doesn't understand their weapons, and they also don't understand each other's, so there will be many unpredictable variables.

At this moment, a voice that was very familiar to Qi Jun came from outside the door of the meeting hall, "Get out of the way! I am the regent's master!"

Xing Ji was stunned for a moment, Qi Jun had already run out, looking surprised, "Senior Mu, why are you here?"

Qiu Jing appeared behind Qi Jun and saw a young girl with an unfamiliar face following Lao Mu. He called out with some uncertainty, "Su Liang?"

Min Rou shook her head quickly, "No, I'm not."

"Oh." Qiu Jing was a little embarrassed and turned back.

Lao Mu brought Min Rou in and introduced her to everyone, saying that she was the granddaughter of Mr. Min. Everyone was a little confused.

Then Lao Mu told him the purpose of his visit. He wanted to send Min Rou to Nanping City to find Mo Yan to prevent him from continuing to help Liang Kingdom fight the war.

"My grandfather was Mo Yan's confidant, and he watched me grow up." Min Rou explained herself.

Xing Ji asked, "Do you know how to find him?"

Min Rou nodded, "I know how to find my grandpa, let's try it."

"We're still late." Lao Mu said angrily, "Damn it!" They heard a loud noise before they entered Xuanbei City.

"Is she really trustworthy?" Qiu Jing asked Lao Mu in front of Min Rou.

Min Rou frowned, and Lao Mu hummed, "Xiao Liang believes in her anyway, you kid, believe it or not!"

Qiu Jing:......

"Get some food, I'm starving to death!" Lao Mu pulled Min Rou to sit down, "After we eat, we'll go find that bastard named Mo!"
