Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 717 Rekindling Fighting Spirit
Princess Furong and Princess Heshuo stood on the city wall, staring dumbly at the densely packed corpses below, witnessing the power of pistols for the first time.

"Sister, this weapon is so powerful!"

Princess Furong swallowed.

"Yeah, what kind of weapon is this? Why is it so powerful?"

Princess Heshuo also had her eyes shining brightly.

"With such powerful weapons, no wonder the emperor's army can sweep across the world!"

Princess Furong finally understood.

Princess Heshuo turned to look at Lu Hao and said loudly: "Your Majesty, what is the name of this weapon? I want one!"

"Your Majesty, I want it too!" Princess Furong came over quickly.

"Okay, okay! I'll give each of you a pistol, but you don't know how to shoot. I'll give it to you after I teach you later."

Lu Hao was also very generous and readily agreed.

"I'm going to kill that bastard Zhou Lifeng with a pistol!"

The first thing Princess Furong thought of was to use a pistol to deal with Zhou Lifeng.

"I'm going to punch a few holes in him too!"

Princess Heshuo also echoed.

"Alas! You are princesses, how can you fight and kill? Just leave this kind of fighting to men like us."

Lu Hao sighed and persuaded.

"No! I want to avenge my father and queen!"

Princess Furong is murderous and seems difficult to persuade.

Lu Hao shook his head helplessly and turned to look at the square below. The battle was coming to an end, and fewer and fewer horses were charging into the city.

The armored warriors who rushed in one after another would definitely be a steel division in the cold weapon era, but in front of the pistol, they were just paper tigers.

It looked mighty and majestic, but in the end it turned into corpses, snatching away the souls of the dead.

Now the streets and alleys behind are crowded with all kinds of war horses. There are not many dead or wounded war horses on the ground. After all, General Zou is leading sharpshooters. As long as they are not allowed to kill the horses, they will definitely not kill them.

Even if it was killed, the horse was killed by accidental injury or the bullet penetrated too strongly.

However, there were also many injured horses.

"Princess Furong, go and resettle those war horses. Use the dead horses as food, keep some for the soldiers, and distribute some to the refugees..."

"Well! With ten thousand war horses, we can finally hold on for a few more days."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll go."

Princess Furong was very happy.

They happen to be short of food now, wouldn't this help them solve a big problem?

"Your Majesty, I finally know the solution you mentioned."

Princess Heshuo pursed her lips and smiled.

"Uh...what can I do?"

Lu Hao pretended not to know.

"You asked these guys to deliver food to us, am I right?"

Princess Heshuo smiled.

"Hahaha……"

Lu Hao burst out laughing.

He looked at General Zou who was cleaning up the battlefield in the distance, and said loudly: "General Zou, these soldiers carry dry food with them, at least three days of rations. Let everyone clean it up and reserve it."

"I understand, Your Majesty!"

General Zou replied loudly.

"Hehehe... Now I can last two more days!"

Thief Lu Hao chuckled.

Princess Heshuo looked at this man who was as wise as the sea and decisive in killing, her eyes were shining brightly, and she was completely smitten.

With a large number of horses killed in battle, tonight everyone, including the refugees, also got a bit of meat, which rekindled everyone's fighting spirit.In this chaotic era, if you have milk, you are a mother. If Lu Hao gives them food, they will be loyal to Lu Hao.

When they learned that Emperor Yongtai of the Chinese Empire had defeated the vanguard army of the Great Zhou Dynasty, everyone celebrated in unison and shouted long live Emperor Yongtai.

……

In a city fifty miles away, Prince Zhou Lifeng of the Zhou Dynasty was cleaning up the battlefield with his elite troops.

The defenders of this city refused to surrender, so Zhou Lifeng had no choice but to order an attack on the city. However, the siege was a battle of killing [-] enemies and losing [-].

When the city was broken, Zhou Lifeng ordered a massacre to vent his anger. Suddenly, corpses littered the streets and alleys.

If this city hadn't blocked his way, he wouldn't have let General Ruan attack Jindu City alone.

After all, the surrounding dynasties are now snatching the land of Shu, so he naturally cannot let the capital of Shu fall into the hands of others.

Therefore, he asked General Ruan to take the first step and seize Jindu City. Unexpectedly, when the news came, the entire army was wiped out.

"You... what did you say?"

Zhou Lifeng grabbed the messenger by the collar and lifted him up.

"Report...report to the prince, Ruan...General Ruan...the entire army has been destroyed!"

The messenger soldier was completely frightened to death.

"Impossible! Impossible... How can the entire army be destroyed? That's ten thousand cavalry? Even if you can't defeat them, you have to run back with some people, right?"

Zhou Lifeng roared at the top of his lungs.

"It is said that... General Ruan invaded Jindu City, and then... started a street fight inside. In the end... no one came out, and it is said that the one who defended the city was Emperor Yongtai of the Chinese Empire!"

The messenger took courage and finished speaking in one breath.

"What? Emperor Yongtai? Really Emperor Yongtai? Did you read that correctly?"

Zhou Lifeng roared angrily.

"The villain doesn't...don't know Yong...Emperor Yongtai, but he...what he admitted himself should...should not be false!"

The messenger grimaced and trembled with fear.

"Emperor Yongtai, I will tear you into pieces!"

Zhou Lifeng shook his hand, and the messenger's neck snapped.

"Come on!"

Zhou Lifeng threw the messenger soldier's body out.

"My lord..."

General Fu under Zhou Lifeng rushed over.

"General Fu, let General Qi clean up the mess. You immediately prepare your army for war and prepare to attack Jindu City."

Zhou Lifeng immediately ordered.

"Respect the prince's order!"

General Fu loudly accepted the order and left.

……

At this moment, in Yingzhou City, the capital of the Jin State, Sima Rui, the leader of the Jin State, was standing on the city wall, looking at the dark mass of rebels below.

The rebel leader's name was Zeng Yucheng. He was one of the chess pieces that Zhou Lifeng had placed in the Jin Kingdom and had been stationed near the capital.

As for the chess pieces in other places, they responded one after another, causing chaos in the Jin Kingdom, the people were displaced, and the people were in dire straits.

"Zeng Yucheng, I treat you well, why do you want to rebel?"

Sima Rui asked loudly.

"Sima Rui, you idiot, you are stupid and ignorant, you are flirting with the Chinese Empire, you are ignoring the justice of the country, and you are putting all the people in dire straits. A person like you is not worthy of being the leader of the country!"

Zeng Yucheng responded loudly, detailing Sima Rui's crimes.

"I am working hard to change the lives of the common people, and the Chinese Empire has promised to provide us with 30 dans of grain, [-] dans of wheat, and countless cattle and sheep for free..."

Sima Rui tried to explain.

"Shut up! The Chinese Empire is ambitious. If you make friends with them, you are seeking the skin of a tiger. You dare to use it here to claim credit. You are really shameless!"

Zeng Yucheng cursed loudly.
