Chapter 906 Direct war


    Qin''er lowered her head and said, "The prince has already left for Xijiang County."


    ?Gu Fei nodded and said "hmm".


    Qin''er said softly: "Master, isn''t he angry?"


    ??Gu Fei shook his head, "Don''t be angry. If he goes that way, he is not necessarily going to welcome the bride. I won''t get angry blindly before something happens."


    “Let’s wait until he actually gets married.”


    Gu Fei still believed in Xiao Yu. Since he said he had his own way, it should not be empty words.


    A month has passed and it is already May 30th.


    ?Gu Fei did nothing, just waited for the news quietly.


    After waiting for a few days, Qin''er came over with another message.


    ??Gu Fei opened the note and read it. It said that the prince was in Xijiang County on May 30th. He suddenly led his troops across the border and quickly broke through the city and headed to the county town of Tanzhou.


    There are only so many messages, and it will take time for subsequent messages to be sent.


    ?Gu Fei looked at it and smiled, Xiao Yu still did not disappoint her.


    ??The King of Qi also received the news at the same time. After receiving the news, he was furious at first.


    Xiao Yu did not discuss this move with him. Although he would have to fight sooner or later, he felt that it was not appropriate to take the lead.


    ?? King Qi couldn''t understand why his son was unwilling to marry a concubine. He suspected that Gu Fei had gone to see Xiao Yu and had a temper with him.


    I have always liked and appreciated my daughter-in-law, but now I feel a little more dissatisfied.


    I thought Gu Fei was a general person, but I didn’t expect that at the critical moment, she would be held back because of these matters of love between children!


    ??There is nothing you can do if you are dissatisfied. Since Xiao Yu has moved, he can only fight hard.


    ?So the King of Qi made urgent arrangements to increase troops to Dongshan County and Tanzhou in Hedong County.


    ??Gu Fei still doesn’t know that Xiao Yu’s failure to marry a concubine has aroused the prince’s dissatisfaction with her.


    ??But even if he knew it, he wouldn''t care. A few days later, Gu Fei received a special message from Xue Chen. The prince had conquered Tanzhou City and used a weapon he had never seen before.


    ??This kind of weapon is called artillery. After being fired, it makes a huge sound and fire, and soon blasts a hole in the wall of Tanzhou City.


    ??The black armored army poured into Tanzhou City like a tide.


    Tanzhou City was the original location of King Chu''s palace. The news did not say what happened to King Chu. It is not known whether he was captured or killed by Xiao Yu, or whether King Chu was not in Tanzhou.


    The picture of the artillery was drawn by Gu Fei for Xiao Yu two or three years ago.


    Guns have been developed a long time ago, but they are very unstable and easy to explode.


    ?The artillery is also not very stable, and its chamber has exploded.


    ?Later, Gu Fei recalled his limited physics knowledge for a long time and made several suggestions. First, improve the level of metallurgy.


    Second, add other metals and experiment repeatedly to see which alloy has the highest strength.


    Third, increase the barrel thickness and improve the barrel casting process.


    Fourth, precisely control the amount of gunpowder.


    After repeated improvements, the probability of bombardment has been reduced a lot.


    ?This is the first time that Xiao Yu has used thermal weapons in war. The effect is obviously shocking and epoch-making.


    Sieging a city became much easier, and the casualties of soldiers were greatly reduced.


    With the matter of marrying his concubine out of the way, Gu Fei''s mood improved again and she took the time to go back to her parents'' home.


    ??Now that the Gu family lives in the city, Gu Fei sent someone home a day in advance. The carriage entered through the gate and stopped at the second gate. Everyone in the family, old and young, was waiting at the second gate.


    ?Gu Qing stepped forward and carefully helped the girl down.


    Mrs. Chen hurriedly stepped forward, "You are more than six months pregnant now, so it''s better not to run out much. This carriage is bumpy when you sit on it."
