Ermao returned to the barracks, bringing with him a letter written by Qi Xingyun and a lot of food prepared by Old Lady Yang and Li. The letter was for General Su, and the food was Ermao's extra meal. His comrades were envious.
Usually when they go back to visit their families, they can only bring some dry food for the journey. How many people can bring back as many bags as General Yang? They all join the army because their families are poor, unlike General Yang who joins because he likes it. After all, going to the battlefield is not a joke.
In the following time, Qi Xingyun and Xiao Cao'er were busy with the research and development. Qi Xingyun lived in the mountains with other people, while Xiao Cao'er went to the mountains every day. Yang Dashan was worried, so in the first few days, he sent Xiao Cao'er to the mountain at dawn every day, and Qi Xingyun personally sent Xiao Cao back in the afternoon.
At first, Xiao Caoer disagreed with Yang Dashan's sending her off, saying, "Dad, Brother Xingyun has important things to do, and it's not good for you to go up the mountain all the time and be discovered."
Yang Dashan: "What's wrong with that? I just dropped you off there and then came down. If someone asked me, I would just say I was collecting firewood. How could anyone find out?"
"Dad, think about how long it has been since you went up the mountain to collect firewood. It was all brought to you by Brother Goudan and the others. Now you go up the mountain every day. I would believe you if you say there is nothing wrong. Please don't send me up. You know that I know some martial arts skills, and they are just on the back mountain of our village. There will be no problem. Just let me go up the mountain like usual." Xiaocaoer persuaded.
Later, Qi Xingyun suggested: "How about this, I will have someone pick up Xiaocao'er at the foot of the mountain every morning, so Uncle Dashan doesn't have to worry."
As soon as Qi Xingyun proposed it, Old Lady Yang agreed immediately, "Okay, okay, let Liu Xingyun come to pick them up. This way, we won't have to worry about encountering wild animals or something like that."
Xiao Cao'er: Grandma, you heard wrong. Brother Xingyun said to ask someone to pick me up, he didn't say he would pick me up himself. Besides, I'm grown up now and I can't have contact with other men. Have you forgotten?
But no one paid attention to what Xiaocao'er was thinking. Yang Dashan and Li also agreed that Qi Xingyun should pick her up. Everyone changed Qi Xingyun's words "let someone pick her up" to "I will pick her up."
With the help of Xiao Cao'er, an experienced person, the bomb was developed and tested at the same time. Fortunately, the place chosen by Qi Xingyun and his team was far away from Qingshan Village and was deep in the mountains, so there were rumbling sounds from time to time, and the villages in the distance could not hear them clearly, so the test was completed without causing panic, and the bomb was successfully developed.
On the other hand, for the production of the sleeve crossbow, the craftsmen sent by the emperor were all experienced people. Although there were only blueprints, Xiao Cao'er had written down all the situations clearly on the blueprints so that skilled craftsmen could understand them at a glance, so it didn't take much effort to make them.
Qi Xingyun had one copy of the two weapons sent directly back to the imperial palace in the capital, and one copy sent to Yanmen Pass to be handed over to General Su. Along with the weapons, an instruction manual was also sent over.
Normally, Qi Xingyun would send someone to deliver a letter as fast as possible, but this time they couldn't even rush because the bomb could explode if they were not careful.
When General Su received the things, it was Ermao's turn to change guard. "Very good, very good, Zhusong. Xiliang has been harassing our people during this period. Now the opportunity is in front of you. It depends on how you use it. I believe you know the meaning of Xingyun's previous letter. In this case, let's do it according to what you discussed." The general waved his hand and made a decisive decision.
"Okay, got it!" Ermao responded excitedly. After receiving the order, he immediately turned around and left, his steps hurried, as if an invisible force was pushing him. After a while, he came to the outside of the tent and began to make arrangements in an orderly manner.
Not long after Ermao changed guard, the Xiliang army really attacked again. Ermao and his soldiers were excited, because after the change of guard, Ermao had assigned tasks to each team and also brought new weapons. This time, the enemy must see the power of our Great Xia Kingdom.
One day, the enemy attacked and the small battlefield was on the verge of breaking out. Soon, the situation on the battlefield gradually became clear. Our soldiers, holding two advanced weapons, rushed towards the enemy like a tiger descending from the mountain, while the enemy team continued to make earth-shaking roars, blowing the enemy to pieces.
The Xiliang army had never seen such a battle before, and they were immediately beaten without any chance to fight back. They watched in horror as their companions fell one by one, their hearts filled with despair and fear. This battle was completely one-sided, a one-sided massacre.
In the end, the balance of victory completely tilted towards Daxia. After a fierce battle, the Xiliang army abandoned their weapons and fled in a panic. This hearty victory not only boosted the morale of the Daxia army, but also shocked the surrounding countries.
You know, it's not because Daxia is afraid of war, but out of consideration for the peaceful life of the people, it has been forbearing. However, if any country dares to invade again, they will be ruthlessly attacked and destroyed. This great victory undoubtedly showed the world the powerful military strength of Daxia and its firm determination to defend its territorial sovereignty.
