"Old slave Wang Chengen, I have met the Commander-in-Chief." As a person close to Zhu Youjian, Wang Chengen can already walk sideways in the capital. However, in front of Li Xiao, Wang Chengen still has to tuck his tail between his legs.

The Liaodong Army can fight, and it is so close to the capital.

Especially when he arrived at Shanhaiguan, Wang Chengen saw groups of soldiers disembarking from the ship. Every day, large groups of cavalry entered Shanhaiguan. Then he looked at the cannons that could only be pulled by two oxen. The muzzles were so thick that Wang Chengen felt that it would be hard to fit himself into them.

Not a problem.

The walls of the capital city are thick enough, but it's hard to say whether they can withstand a fight.

"Military affairs have been busy recently. As you know, father-in-law, Japanese pirates have been harassing Shandong. This time Li was ordered to go to Shandong to quell the chaos, but he really couldn't get away. This time he returned to Shanhaiguan because he needed to transport ordnance and food. Today happened to be a test of ordnance, especially

Invite your father-in-law to come and have a look." Li Xiao stood up politely and saluted Wang Chengen.

"Master Li is serious. My brother often praises Master Li as the only humerus in the country. Now it seems that what my brother said is true." Li Xiao was polite, and Wang Chengen was even more polite. He made a ninety-degree bow.

Li Xiao's nose was almost crooked with anger. This is a fucking etiquette only used at memorial services.

"May I ask who Eunuch Wang's brother is...!" Mao Wenlong asked naturally.

"My elder brother is Wang Tiqian, the eunuch in charge of the ceremony."

"Oh...!" Li Xiao suddenly realized, it turned out to be like this. No wonder Wang Tigan, the second- and fifth-year-old boy, had to cooperate with Zhu Youjian to carry out a coup. It turns out that this is the root of the rebellion!

"Eunuch Wang has a lot of support for Li. In this case, he is not an outsider. Eunuch, please take a seat and see how our Liao army's weapons are doing." Li Xiao made a gesture of invitation and invited Wang Chengen to go to the first seat. Wang Chengen refused and refused.

I could only sit on my seat.

Wang Chengen was seated, but Li Xiao did not start, but seemed to be waiting for someone.

It was not convenient for Wang Chengen to ask, so he could only chat with the enthusiastic Mao Wenlong next to him.

Li Xiao took out his pocket and looked at the time. There were still ten minutes left before the start.

"Brother, I miss you so much." The voice came before the person arrived.

Wang Chengen stood up and looked outside. He didn't know who this guy who could be called brother to Li Xiao was!

Inside the city gate, a team of guards in brocade robes galloped out, each wearing a flying fish suit embroidered with spring knives. They passed through the city gate without slowing down, frightening the people in the distance to avoid them. The sound of horse hooves made people like tigers and horses like dragons, and the arrogant air hit their faces from a mile away.

Come.

"Master Mao, this is...!" Wang Chengen felt nervous, how could there be a Jinyiwei here, and he still looked familiar with Li Xiao. You know, Jinyiwei has been under the control of Wei Zhongxian since the second year of the weather. I heard it before

He said Li Xiao was a member of Wei Zhongxian's party, but Wang Tiqian said he was not. Now that he saw the Jin Yiwei, Wang Chengen felt like he was beating a drum in his heart.

This is Li Xiao's territory. If he finds an opportunity to hack himself, he probably won't even be able to find his body.

"Oh, this is Mr. Xu Xianchun, the commander of the Jinyi Guards. I have known Brother Xiao for a long time. This time he came to Shanhaiguan on a mission of nine thousand years. He just arrived yesterday!" Mao Wenlong explained to Wang Chengen with a smile.

"Uh...! That's it, that's it!" Wang Chengen had an embarrassed smile on his face, trying to cover up his embarrassment by serving tea. But he held the tea cup with his trembling hands, causing the lid of the cup to collide with the tea cup, making a sound

Louder voice. What message can Xu Xianchun send to Li Xiao at this time? It must be a message to persuade Li Xiao to come to Beijing!

If Li Xiao wanted to show his loyalty and handed himself over to the Jinyi Guards. Xu Xianchun had a very vicious reputation. He had both Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou killed. If he fell into his hands, how would he be able to survive?

"Eunuch Wang, are you feeling unwell?" Mao Wenlong asked with the most kind smile and great concern.

"The journey is tiring, the journey is tiring!" Wang Chengen put down the tea cup in embarrassment, some tea splashed out, and his fingers hurt terribly.

"Brother, I miss you so much. How about you in Shandong? I heard that you defeated the Japanese army and beheaded more than three thousand people. You are indeed a tiger general. You are here nine thousand years old. Is there something...!" Xu Xianchun jumped off the horse and clasped his fists.

As he walked up to Li Xiao, his warm words showed that he was Li Xiao's best friend.

"Sir Xu, I will tell you about the nine thousand years old story later. We are going to practice firearms here, please take your seat first." Li Xiao said "Sir Xu", which made Xu Xianchun stunned. Following Li Xiao's hand, Xu Xianchun saw a man wearing a genuine fifth-grade dress.

Eunuch in costume.

There are actually not many eunuchs in the capital, because most eunuchs can only be called chamberlains. Eunuchs are senior leaders among eunuchs, and generally only the leader of the twenty-four eunuchs can be called eunuchs. In the large capital of Nuozhou, there are many eunuchs.

But those who really dare to call themselves eunuchs are only a few dozen people.

This eunuch was dressed in a genuine fifth-grade eunuch's attire, but his face was very raw. Xu Xianchun searched his guts and couldn't figure out which eunuch he was from. He had forgotten that, except for the head of the twenty-four eunuchs, the eunuch in the prince's palace

The leader can also be a fifth-grade eunuch.

"This father-in-law is...!" Xu Xianchun looked at Li Xiao suspiciously.

"Oh, this father-in-law is King Xin, uh... Wang Cheng'en, the chief servant of the Qiandi residence, your father-in-law. I came here on official business under the order of King Xin. Brother Xu, please!"

Now that Zhu Youjian has not ascended the throne, Li Xiao cannot call him Your Majesty or Long Live according to the etiquette. Calling "Big Brother" brought Xu Xianchun closer. Xu Xianchun was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Xiao, and then looked at

Look at Wang Chengen. He didn't even bother to say hello, and sat directly next to Wang Chengen, which seemed a bit like fighting in the ring.

Li Xiao smiled knowingly and said, "Just pinch me. I'm afraid you won't pinch me."

"Sir, everything is ready." Zu Dashou came over and saluted Li Xiao.

"Let's start! Scare these local leopards!" Li Xiao nodded to Zu Dashou, then he also went up to the high platform and sat down at the bottom modestly!

"The drill begins!" Zu Dashou held a small red flag in his hand and shouted loudly with a broken gong.

Seeing the red flag in Zu Dashou's hand fall, the gunners a mile away began to load. The thing to be tested this time was quite special. It was actually a huge iron cylinder with propellant inside. Then a gun was stuffed outside.

Explosive packs, Li Xiao knew that this thing also has a popular name, called heartless cannon.

The caliber of this thing is too large, and the explosive packets can be thrown out. But the distance is very close, only about one or two hundred meters. On the battlefield, Li Xiao's mortar can beat this thing into slag. But today is

Acting, this thing is full of medicine and powerful, perfect for demonstrating to others.

As the red flag in Zu Dashou's hand fell, the soldiers immediately fired the gun. Then they were chased by the cannon as if they were dogs. The gun burned very fast, and they only had a short time to escape.

After running for more than 20 meters, I turned over and got into a deep trench. There were cat-ear holes in it. I covered my ears with my hands and opened my mouth, waiting for the loud noise. There was no fucking accuracy with this thing, and I couldn't handle it.

Well, you might as well explode yourself.

"Bang!" The sound was not too loud, and a puff of smoke came out of the iron bucket. The huge explosive package was thrown out at a speed so slow that it could be seen clearly with the naked eye.

Sure enough, the distance of the throw was not far. It was only about a hundred meters!

"Boom!" The sound of the explosion was very loud, and the impact of the explosion could be seen with the naked eye as it moved rapidly around. A huge fireball rose up in the center of the explosion, and the bright light emitted was so bright that people could not open their eyes. It seemed like there was a gap between heaven and earth.

, the second sun was born in an instant.

When he saw the flash of light, Li Xiao opened his mouth slightly. He already had earplugs in his ears, so it shouldn't be too uncomfortable to open his mouth for a while now.

It was a bit far away, and it took several seconds after the flash to hear the rumbling explosion.

The inexperienced Xu Xianchun and Wang Chengen were shocked to the point of ringing in their ears for a moment, and then a strong wind rushed towards them. The guards had been prepared and immediately stood up in front of Li Xiao. Xu Xianchun and Wang Chengen did not get this treatment, and they were beaten one by one.

Become disgraced.

The dust passed and the scene became silent for a moment. Xu Xianchun desperately picked out his ears and wiped his face, while Wang Chengen coughed violently.

Very good. Li Xiao is very satisfied with the result. The power of the explosion is not that big, and it is impossible for the impact to hit more than a thousand meters. You can put the platform in the downwind to achieve this effect. Sure enough, the wind in October in the Northeast caused the explosion.

All the dust that was stirred up was brought here, partially demonstrating the power of impact!

"Oops! It's Li's fault. I didn't expect this thing to be so powerful. Mr. Xu, Eunuch Wang, let's go back to Shanhaiguan City. You two should take a rest first!" Li Xiao held his fists in his hands and apologized continuously.

"What did you say?" Xu Xianchun shouted loudly. He saw Li Xiao's mouth moving, but the buzzing in his ears made it impossible for him to hear what Li Xiao was saying. On the other hand, Wang Chengen was still coughing violently.

It won't get better in a while.

Li Xiao didn't talk nonsense. With a wave of his hand, someone sent the two guys away, and sent them to Mao Wenlong's governor's house and the post house respectively. Wang Chengen was a purely vulnerable group in front of Xu Xianchun. What if Xu Xianchun was betrayed?

, then Li Xiao has no place to ask for benefits.

After the two guys were sent away, the drama was over.

"Do you think these two guys can be fooled?" Mao Wenlong took out his earplugs and looked at the backs of the two people as they left.

"Now they are begging us. How can we get some benefits if they don't let them fight each other? Only if there is competition, we will benefit." Li Xiao looked at the two people leaving. Today's performance was very successful. That's all.

Let them know that he has the ability to destroy the walls of the capital city. If it weren't for the reasons of secrecy and being too expensive, Li Xiao would even want to pull out the arsenal ship and let these two idiots palm it.

After dusting himself off, Li Xiao got off the stage and walked back as if nothing happened.
