Chapter 434: Defeat the enemy with one arrow

The guard looked at the marshal who was lying on his back, stunned, and inexplicably remembered a sentence.

People die and birds look up to the sky...

His throat tightened and he ran towards the handsome tent.

"Something happened... something happened..."

The marshal of the Conquering South Army was attacked late at night.

The crossbow arrow hit his temple, and it penetrated more than three inches.

The arrow was in the shape of a cross. It opened and rotated automatically after being shot in. His brain was messed up.

The man died on the spot.

All the generals in the handsome account were instantly panicked.

Who did it?

Who has the ability to go deep into the camp and shoot the marshal of the Conquering South Army?

Will they shoot other generals?

A series of doubts made all the generals of the Zhengnan Army stand in the commander's tent, with serious expressions on their faces.

The military doctor took out the crossbow arrow. The seemingly inconspicuous short arrow had a special arrow.

The doctor weighed the arrow in his hand: it was very heavy.

This thing is like iron, but heavier than iron.

A bit like hundred-forged steel.

But how is the forged steel made into such a small and exquisite crossbow?

Especially the cross arrow at the top that can expand the moment it is touched...

A general who had studied crossbows carefully played with the crossbow arrows and expressed his inference.

"The design of this crossbow is short and delicate, but it is not light in weight."

"If you want to maintain accuracy, you need to have excellent coordination with the crossbow."

"So its crossbow is also specially made and has extremely high requirements."

"Both require extremely high forging skills."

"As far as I know, there is no such good thing in Nan'an..."

If there was, I would have taken it out and used it long ago, and wouldn’t have waited until now.

Someone blurted out: "This must be something from Tianwu Kingdom!"

The person next to him immediately retorted: "Didn't you say that Tianwu Kingdom did not participate in the war?"

A general hesitated: "Could it be that Tianwu lent their crossbow to Nan'an?"

Another general sneered coldly: "If you were Tianwu, would you lend such a thing to another country?"

Everyone was silent: Impossible.

Such a thing, even in your own army, must be in the hands of someone you can absolutely trust.

In other words: Tianwu Kingdom joined the war.

And with the most elite weapons, they carried out a sniper attack on the generals of Tianlang's Southern Conquest Army.

Kill with one blow.

The sense of superiority of the two cities was gone, and the generals looked at each other, unable to hide their panic.

If the marshal dies, will there be another one?

Who will be next?

Everyone's eyes were turned to the deputy commander of the Southern Army - King Xian.

The wise king was also panicked.

He came to take over from his uncle's class, not to be a target.

But now, his uncle is gone, what should he do?

Several generals looked at each other and bowed down directly.

"The marshal died, please take over the charge of the Conqueror Army!"

The voices suddenly sounded loud and clear: "Please, Your Majesty, take over the charge of conquering the Southern Army!"

"Please, Your Majesty, take over the charge of conquering the Southern Army!"

The wise king was so frightened that everyone stammered: "You...you..."

"This...this...my father has never issued an order, how can I take over the Southern Army without permission?"

Another general came to persuade: "Your Highness, the three armies cannot be without a commander for a day. The marshal died. If you don't take over the Southern Army, who else is qualified?"

Everyone nodded.

The wise king looked at his friendly staff.

The staff also nodded slightly.

If you shrink back now, you will never be able to stand up again.

No matter how big the risk is, we still have to take control first.

……

The wise king boldly (horrifiedly) took charge of the Southern Army, and the news of Marshal Wen's death was kept secret.

Fortunately, it is winter now, so corpses don't stink easily.

The previously overwhelming offensive slowed down instantly.

Regarding the third city, the wise king chose to besiege it rather than attack it.

The besieged officers, soldiers and people of Nan'an were confused: What's going on? Stop fighting?

Do you want to starve everyone to death?

That shouldn’t be the case—Nan’an doesn’t have much country, it just has a lot of food.

The food reserves in the city are more than enough for a year.

When the Southern Army came to fight in the middle of winter, wasn't it because they were short of food and wanted to grab food?

They are stationed outside and spending time with themselves. No matter how you look at it, it is not cost-effective...

One day later. The leader of Nan'an: "What did you say? The marshal of the Southern Army was shot?"

"Prince Tianwu did it?"

After receiving the confirmation, the leader of Nan'an was overjoyed.

"No wonder the Sirius army stopped attacking the city. It turns out they were afraid..."

Then the leader of Nan'an's eyes shone again: "Tell me, if I am willing to pay for this kind of crossbow, will Tianwuhui be willing to sell it?"

Prime Minister Right said in a respectful tone (contemptuous in his heart): "Such a good thing is rare even in Tianwu. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Your Majesty to want it..."

"Then how much more money should I give? One thousand gold? If that's not possible, ten thousand gold?"

Prime Minister Right: "...can you ask?"

After asking, I gave up.

In the Sirius Palace, the imperial concubine also received the same news.

"What did you say? Yuan Sheng was shot?"

"Did the Tianwu people do it?"

"Where is the wise king? How is the wise king now?"

The imperial concubine was both happy and worried when she learned that her son was safe and sound and had taken charge of the Southern Army.

My child knows it himself: he is not that good.

Growing up under the protection of his uncle and mother, Xian Wang appeared to be a civilized and martial arts expert, but in fact it was a carefully planned and disguised illusion.

With the help of his younger brother Wen Yuansheng, the wise king would have no problem taking charge of the Southern Army.

But my brother is gone now...

The imperial concubine was heartbroken.

She also saw the crossbow arrow.

Even though she has never fought, she still knows how sophisticated this thing is.

She had never seen or heard of the cross flower arrow as thin as cicada wings.

Being stabbed into my brain by this thing, and stirring it up like that...

Even gods can’t save him!

"Empress, what should I do now?"

what to do?

The imperial concubine hesitated.

Reason told her that she should let her son take the opportunity to practice on the battlefield.

But the crossbow arrow in front of her was like a sword hanging above her head, making her dare not gamble at all...

After thinking about it, she suddenly stood up and headed towards the imperial study room.

"I'm going to find your Majesty."

Tianwu Kingdom joined the war, and they shot and killed the marshal of the Southern Conquest Army in a sneak attack.

Emperor Tianlang looked at the crossbow in front of him with a serious look on his face.

This is a threat.

Tianwu Kingdom is threatening Tianlang: If Tianlang continues to attack, no one knows who will die next under the crossbow.

The imperial concubine endured her grief but looked worried about the country and the people.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how many crossbows there are in the Tianwu Kingdom. If they continue to sneak attack the generals of the Conquering Southern Army, the Conquering Southern Army will not be able to afford it..."

Emperor Sirius knew that his concubine was worried about her son, his half-brother.

The custom of Tianlang Kingdom is that after the husband dies, his son will be followed.

It is impossible for the imperial concubine to have no selfish motives.

But what she said makes sense...

An army of thousands is easy to obtain, but a general is difficult to find.

It would be a pity if the excellent generals who were finally cultivated were shot and killed by the Tianwu Kingdom.

After thinking about it, Emperor Tianlang sighed: "By conquering two cities in a row, the conquest of the Southern Army is indispensable."

"Now that Tianwu Kingdom has joined the war, everything needs to be considered in the long term."

"Let's withdraw the Southern Conquest Army first..."

……

Feng Mingqian, standing at the entrance of the cave, looked at the city in the distance and couldn't believe it! stunned!

"They...why did they withdraw their troops?"

Just one arrow to make the Zhengnan Army withdraw?

Is this how Nan'an's country's catastrophe is solved?

Fu Chenan did not explain, but called to his bodyguard: "Return."

Feng Mingqian went back to explain to the leader of Nan'an without mentioning it, but Fu Chenan went straight to Tianwu Kingdom.

The guard was puzzled: "Your Highness, why didn't you shoot a few more arrows? Just destroy the Southern Army?"

Fu Chenan chuckled: "The first arrow was successful because they raised their tails and were not prepared enough."

"If we try to make a sneak attack in the future, the risk will increase significantly."

No one is as valuable as his own people.

And the opponent is definitely coveting the composite crossbow and crossbow arrows.

What if the opponent fights to kill several generals and sets up an ambush to snatch the compound crossbow?

Don't do anything that is too risky unless absolutely necessary.
