The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 454
[Chapter 454 New Heavenly Punishment]
Fang Xiu cupped his hands and said: “Your Majesty is wise, the Shenji Battalion has indeed developed a new type of Heavenly Punishment.”
When Emperor Chu heard this, he showed an expression of interest on his face and said, “Tell me and listen.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Fang Xiu said: “The new type of heavenly punishment developed by the Shenji Battalion is divided into two categories. One category can be buried on the ground, waiting for the enemy to pass by. Whether it is a man or a horse, as long as it steps on it, it will be destroyed. It will automatically ignite the fuse, which can produce unexpected miraculous effects.
The enemy will be shattered to pieces before he can react.
In addition, there is a new type of natural punishment that can be used with the sling. The fuse is extremely long and does not cause damage.
Affected by the strong wind, one throw can annihilate at least hundreds of enemy troops.
If the enemy troops are densely stationed, it is not a bad idea to defeat thousands of enemy troops at once.
In this way, only two thousand elites are needed to guard the city fortress on the southwest border. , supplemented by the new type of natural punishment, the Mu rebels will have to pay a huge price if they want to advance even half a step!”
At this point, both Emperor Chu and Liu Cheng behind him were a little startled again.
It’s not that they don’t believe what Fang Xiu said, but
if the new type of heavenly punishment is really as powerful as he said, who else in the world can stop the imperial court?
Even the brave and skilled prairie warriors who are known as natural warriors are nothing more than a mantis under the wheel when facing the attack of the imperial court!
“Is the power of the new type of heavenly punishment really as Fang Qing said?”
At this moment, even the Emperor Chu, who had always been ‘steady as an old dog’, could not maintain his composure.
He stood up, looked at Fang Xiu in front of him, and asked a little excitedly.
The reason for this is because the old emperor knew in his heart that Fang Xiu would not say anything without any basis.
The emperor has already stood up. As a minister, there is no reason to sit down.
When Fang Xiu saw this, he stood up hurriedly, cupped his hands and said, “What I just said is absolutely not false.
If your Majesty doesn’t believe it, you can go to the Shenji Camp to find out!” When
the Emperor of Chu heard this, he didn’t have the slightest trace of it.
Hesitating, he turned around and ordered Liu Cheng behind him: “I’m going to Shenji Camp to see if this new type of heavenly punishment is really so powerful!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Liu Cheng responded, but before he could leave, he was greeted by Emperor Chu. Stopped: “Wait a moment!”
“Your Majesty, do you have any other orders?”
Liu Cheng bowed his body and said respectfully.
Emperor Chu looked at him, with a solemn look on his face, and ordered: “I am visiting privately incognito, so don’t make too much noise. In addition, the most important thing is that I leave the palace and go to the Shenji Camp. You know The fewer people there are, the better!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Emperor Chu looked at Fang Xiu in front of him, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said, “You come with me, if the new type of heavenly punishment is true. Whatever reward you want, I will give it to you!” When
Fang Xiu heard this, his face showed a hint of joy, and he wanted to ask: I want your daughter, do you think that’s okay?
After thinking about it, I still didn’t dare to ask.
The old emperor would indeed not chop himself down for such a trivial matter, but he would definitely do such a thing as beating himself up.
In just one month.
The Shenji Battalion has gone from a newly built guard post with nothing to the first guard post in the capital, surpassing the 16th Guards of the pro-army army.
Even the most elite Shenwu Guards among the Sixteen Guards may not be as good as today’s Shenji Battalion.
The camp of Shenji Camp has also changed from an open space with a few hastily erected wooden houses to the current brick and tile houses.
In addition, there is a courtyard not far from the camp. Although it is not as good as many noble mansions in Kyoto City, it still looks extremely superior in this suburb.
There is no doubt that this is a place reserved for the general to rest.
Of course, even so, Fang Xiu, the general of Shenji Camp, rarely rests here.
The number of soldiers in the Shenji Battalion has now expanded to more than 2,000.
Most of them are old people from the original right feather forest guard, plus some newcomers from other guards.
Fortunately for the old people, most of them have seen their generals, and they even won the first place in the review with the general who was just Zuo Zhonglang at that time.
But many of the newcomers have never even met their own generals.
For example, at this moment, there are two young soldiers guarding the camp.
“Who are you? This is the garrison of pro-army troops. No one is allowed to enter!”
The two young soldiers looked at the group of people in front of them cautiously and said loudly.
The old man walking at the front heard this and did not answer. Instead, he turned to look at a young man behind him.
When the young man saw this, an embarrassed smile appeared on his face.
“Ahem, Your Majesty, you can’t blame me for this matter. Some time ago, I was busy with the provincial examination and didn’t have time to come here. These newly arrived soldiers don’t know me. It’s reasonable. Ahem,
it’s reasonable.”
Fang Xiu knew it Unfortunately, at this point, his voice was already tinny.
The two young soldiers were stunned, but that doesn’t mean they are fools.
They heard clearly that the young man in front of them called the old man in front of them ‘Your Majesty’ and called himself a minister.
In the entire Chu State, there was only one person who dared to call him that.
“Young man, no, humble duty, humble duty to join His Majesty!”
The two soldiers were both geniuses who came to the Shenji Camp. No matter how much they expected to see His Majesty, they were all so frightened that they were a little incoherent.
The old emperor glanced at the two young soldiers kneeling in front of him, waved his hands, and said casually: “No need to be polite.
You two have done a good job. This is an important place. There is no will from me or the order from your general. , Even the prince has no right to enter here!” When
the two soldiers heard this, they all showed excitement and kowtowed: “Thank you for your humble position!”
Emperor Chu nodded and walked in without saying anything else. Shenji camp.
The movement at the door has already spread to the camp.
This incident of His Majesty’s arrival is not the first time for the elders of Shenji Camp.
But compared to the last time, His Majesty’s arrival seemed much more unexpected this time.
Liang Hu led a few captains and a group of soldiers to greet them in a hurry.
“I’m here to see you, Your Majesty!”
“No need to be polite, let’s all get up.”
Emperor Chu waved his hand and said calmly.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
“You should be busy with whatever you have to do. Just pretend that I am not here. You guys, come here.”
Emperor Chu casually ordered a few people to stay, and the others were sent away.
“If I remember correctly, your name is Liang Hu?”
Emperor Chu looked at one of them and asked.
Liang Hu glanced at Fang Xiu behind Emperor Chu, then lowered his head and said respectfully: “Reporting to Your Majesty, my name is indeed Liang Hu.”
