The emperor of the Wa Kingdom is not old and confused, but very shrewd, and he has been paying attention to the arrival of the Dongjiang Army these days. I thought that the Dongjiang Army would only be majestic on the sea, and as for the landing operation, it was obviously unlikely.

But now the Dongjiang Army has landed, and it has directly captured the two prefectures of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, aiming at Heiankyo. The Emperor of the Wa Kingdom had to pay attention to it, and for the sake of safety, he also kept an eye on every move of the Dongjiang Army.

According to his observations during this time, the most powerful and powerful hot air balloons used by the Dongjiang Army in land operations were used. The Emperor was convinced that as long as he found out the weakness of the Dongjiang Army's hot air balloon, the Dongjiang Army would pose no threat to him.

And there happened to be Jiro Shinno in front of him to ask, and the emperor would naturally not be polite.

Faced with the emperor's sudden question, Shinno Jiro was very hesitant, he didn't know whether to answer the truth or hide something.

He had been staying in Heiankyo for nearly a month, and had always hoped to get the emperor's military power and lead his troops to fight the Dongjiang Army again. Unfortunately, the emperor no longer seemed to trust him, and the military power was never delegated to him.

After pondering deeply, Shinno Jiro replied: "Emperor, the hot air balloon of the Dongjiang Army does have a weakness, which was discovered only after this king fought against him several times. ”

The emperor's face, which had always been gloomy as water, finally eased somewhat, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he whispered, "Tell me about it." ”

Shinno Jiro hesitated for a moment, but shook his head and said, "This king hopes that when the emperor learns of the weakness of the Dongjiang army, when he sends troops, this king can become the commander of the army." ”

The Emperor immediately said in a dark voice: "Are you trying to blackmail me? ”

Shinno Jiro once again felt the murderous intent emanating from the emperor's body, and he shook his head and explained: "Xiao Wang doesn't dare, it's just that Xiao Wang has been defeated by the Dongjiang Army several times, and Xiao Wang is unwilling to be a loser like this." Please let the emperor fulfill this little wish of Xiao Wang, and be ashamed! ”

After listening to this explanation, the emperor's gloomy face improved, and he muttered, "I understand your thoughts. It is not a trivial matter to be able to compete with the Dongjiang Army, and it is related to the national fortune of our country, and the emperor has to seriously consider it and weigh it again. ”

Shinno Jiro was very anxious, and he immediately said: "Emperor, no one knows the Dongjiang Army better than Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang thinks that only I can do it at present." ”

The Emperor fell silent for a moment, and he also sensed that Jiro Shinno was right. It is true that only Jiro Shinno is the most suitable candidate for the current Wakoku. It's just that his successive failures have made the emperor lose confidence in him.

After much deliberation, the Emperor spoke again: "Well, then I will give you another chance." But you have to remember that you only have one chance, and if it is not good to go out again, then don't blame the emperor for being ruthless. ”

Shinno Jiro was overjoyed when he heard this, he didn't care about the words of the Empress at all. Jiro Shinno has always been convinced that on land, the real combat power of the Dongjiang Army is extremely limited, except for those hot air balloons.

"Thank you to the emperor for his success, Xiao Wang will do his best not to disappoint the emperor." Xinye Cao Jie did not dare to delay and immediately stated his position.

Nodding, the Emperor spoke, "Now let's talk about the weaknesses of those things in the Dongjiang Army!" ”

"Hehe......"

Xinye Cao Jie didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately said: "The things that can fly in the air of the Dongjiang Army are called hot air balloons. And the weakness of those hot air balloons is those huge spheres, as long as we can build weapons that can destroy those spheres, hot air balloons are not invincible. ”

When the emperor heard this, his brows furrowed: "Build a weapon to destroy the sphere of the hot air balloon? ”

Xinye Cao Jie pondered for a moment, and said: "Please give Xiao Wang three days, after three days, Xiao Wang can create ten such sharp weapons, and then Xiao Wang can personally show the power of weapons to the emperor." ”

"Okay, then I'll give you five days, and after five days, I have to see the weapon you mentioned, otherwise our previous agreement will be null and void. And to add your guilt, will you agree? ”

"Xiao Wang agreed!"

Xinye Cao Jie was very happy, and patted his chest on the spot and made a guarantee.

Bidding farewell to the emperor, Xinye Cao Jie did not dare to delay at all, and after leaving the imperial city, he took the token given by the emperor and went straight to the Governor's Division. Immerse yourself in building an artifact for hot air balloons.

The hall was empty, and only the emperor was left sitting alone in the middle, and his eyes, which were originally old and godless, burst out at this moment! A deep voice came out of his mouth: "Keep an eye on Xinye Cao Jie, the things he has built must ensure that we can build them in the future." ”

In the dark corner, a dark shadow flashed silently, and there was no response. I saw the black shadow bow to the emperor's back, and then retreated and quietly disappeared.

In the Nagasaki Prefecture Castle Palace, Incheon Jiexiong and Mao Wenlong sat in the hall, and Incheon Jiexiong's face was full of anxiety. But Mao Wenlong was indifferent.

"General soldier, we can't wait any longer, Heiankyo must be captured as soon as possible, otherwise if it is delayed, it will inevitably give the other side more time to prepare. It's really not good for us, and only by fighting now, we can completely catch Heiankyo off guard. Incheon raised his head and poured a large glass of sake, looking very depressed!

Mao Wenlong glanced at Incheon Jiexiong indifferently, and said indifferently: "No matter how much you prepare, it will not help, or that sentence, it is useless for Mr. Jiexiong to be anxious." Before he spied on the strength of Heiankyo's side, the general army would definitely not send troops easily. ”

It is not as easy as attacking the capital of another country to attack Nagasaki or Hiroshima Prefecture. Heiankyo was the old nest of the Emperor of Wakoku, and it had to be garrisoned by the most elite army of Wakuni. If the Dongjiang Army recklessly fights over, it is very likely to suffer a big loss.

Mao Wenlong's current purpose is not to rob the wealth of the Wa Kingdom, as long as he searches the Wa State again, so that he has no time to go to the Daming Coast to make trouble. For this purpose, it is obviously not worth it to let the officers and men of the Dongjiang Army take risks.

Incheon Jiexiong was very helpless, Mao Wenlong never let go, he had no choice.

In the silent hall, the atmosphere was a little weird, and Incheon Jiexiong was even more sullen and drinking alcohol. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, and the two looked for prestige, but saw Chengzuo coming in a hurry.

"Commander-in-chief! There was news from Heiankyo spies. After Cheng Zuo saluted, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Mao Wenlong.

Without any nonsense, Mao Wenlong took the envelope and opened it directly, and looked at it!

Incheon Jiexiong stared at Mao Wenlong very nervously, anxiously waiting for Mao Wenlong's final answer. To fight or not to fight, he can't help but be nervous.
