Chapter 143 Di Army Had Sharp Weapon to Attack the City

In the Jin City.

After two days, Xu Linghe checked the wall construction. Zhan Ming did live up to order and fulfill the task on time. To build up the 5 kilometers walls by two meters thick, it was really a huge project. Zhan Ming accomplished it! It was definitely admirable. It turned out that men of talents came forward from Yan army in succession. Xu Linghe stood on the city wall and looked into the distance. The war was on the verge of breaking out. He was going to meet with Lin Xiaosa on the battlefield. Xu Linghe asked himself whether he would be merciless to Lin Xiaosa. The answer was “No”.

In December, it was cold and damp in Jiangnan with the wind roaring. Yan Shen looked at the man from the distance. Xu Linghe still wore silk clothes. The old man shook his head and asked a family servant to bring a brocade coat to him. Yan Shen felt guilty to the young man. Xu Linghe had enjoyed a happy life with his wife and son, but Yan Shen begged him to the Jin City. Yan Shen muffled himself up with the brocade coat and walked up to the city wall. Xu Linghe looked at the direction of Kunlun. Today was Douya’s birthday, and Xu Linghe could do nothing but pray for his son silently.

“Xu’s young man, are you missing your family members?” Xu Linghe felt something fall on his shoulders. It was a brocade coat. Xu Linghe felt warm in his heart.

“Today is my son’s birthday...” Xu Linghe sighed with a feeling of a father’s helplessness. Yan Shen felt rather guilty, because he had robbed Xu Linghe’s happiness of a family union just for the Jin City.

“Go home now. Your son is talking about you now...” Since Yan Shen’s son had passed away, Yan Shen felt loneliness occupied him day after day. In the past, he was always tired of his commonplace son, but now it was too late to treasure him.

“Uncle Yan, what if Di army conducts sneak-attacks? There is a birthday every year. But now we are at the crucial moment for the Jin City.”

“People have too many regrets in life. And go back to see your kid quickly.”

“If Di army launches sneak-attacks, inform me and I will come back immediately.”

“I know. Go back quickly...” The little bell fell into Yan Shen’s hands. Xu Linghe chanted a spell, and read it again in case that the old man was possibly hard of hearing. When Xu Linghe flew out of the Jin City, Zhan Ming could not respond to it at that moment. Later, Zhan Ming realized that the Commander in Chief was an immortal. The Commander in Chief always acted with a low profile, but it turned out that he just kept reserved.

“Young man, learn something. The powerful people are all like that.”

“Master Yan, you’re right.”

Although Yan Shen was not the Emperor now, he was still admired deeply by the people of the Jin City. Zhan Ming held the lantern and lit for Yan Shen. Little soldiers came up to greet him at the sight of the former city governor. They had not seen the city governor for days, and did not expect to see him inspect the sentries tonight.

“Everyone cheers up! The people of the Jin City rely on you! To add some beef to the night watchmen to keep out of the cold.” The sixteen or seventeen soldiers jumped happily. Watching the innocent and young faces, Yan Shen thought how many of them could survive tomorrow. The Jin City was kept at the cost of these kids’ lives. In the past, Yan Shen did not spare a glance at these people, thinking that their life or death had nothing to do with him. However, it was the so-called nonentities that supported him when the Jin City fell. Yan Shen had never been moved before. But at that moment, tears coursed down the old man’s cheeks. He did want to do something for the people of the Jin City, so he came to plead Xu Linghe boldly. And it turned out that he was right to Kunlun. And Xu Linghe was fully deserved to be the governor of the Jin City.

In Kunlun.

“Dad likes it most. I will keep it for him.”

The little hand grabbed the chicken leg and hid it in his small bowl. Wuyou’s mouth twitched. It was Xiao Douya himself who liked the chicken legs, but he just claimed that his father liked it. Well, Xiao Douya fox’s nature was so obvious. But today was Douya’s birthday. Wuyou hoped her child was happy. At night, the family had a reunion dinner. Granny sewed new clothes for the great-grandchildren. Wuyou’s mother also came back to celebrate the birthday, but her father did not come in case of Baize’s sneak-attack. Xiaoyou made longevity noodles for Xiao Douya. Since Xiaoyou got married, she became more thoughtful and helped her sister take care of Xiao Douya. It was the happiness that Xu Linghe saw when he entered the room. Xiao Douya widened his eyes, looking at the person at the door.

“Dad!” The little boy threw himself into the man’s arms. Xu Linghe held the child up. Wuyou looked at them quietly.

“Xiao Douya, come down. Let your father take a rest.” In a month since Wuyou saw her husband last, he became thinner. Wuyou’s heart ached for her husband. However, the child did not care about it and asked his father to hold him in the air. This four-year-old boy was still spoiled. Wuyou came up to hold the kid down, so as to give a rest to her husband. Xiao Douya sat in his father’s arms, and his chubby hands tore the chicken legs and sent the meat into his father’s mouth. A whole family members sat around the stove and enjoyed the delicious food. Unconsciously, it had been at midnight. Xiao Douya felt sleepy, but was reluctant to leave his father. Granny Moon could not bear to see it and held her great-grandson in the arms to sleep. Madam Houqing came to the front yard with her younger daughter.

“The war is imminent. Why are you back?”

Although Wuyou was in Kunlun, her heart was fixed on the Jin City, on the movements of the both sides.

“Douya is four years old. I will not let him down.” Xu Linghe was apologetical to Douya and decided to make up for the missing love.

The water was boiling on the stove. Wuyou prepared the foot-washing water for her husband. When the man fell into a sound sleep, Wuyou took off her man’s shoes quietly. Usually, it was her husband who looked after her and never made her do any household chores. Wuyou’s little hands untied her husband’s shoelace carefully in order not to disturb her husband’s dream. The man’s feet were thin. When his feet were dipped in the warm water, the man opened his eyes and withdrew his feet immediately. How could the woman wash his feet? Wuyou smiled gently and pushed the feet into the water. No matter what happened today, she was bound to clean up his feet.

“Be good. Put the feet well.” The woman was so valiant that a common foot washing was almost like robbing in the end. In the beginning, Xu Linghe humored the woman, but at last, he could not resist turning over the foot washing water.

“I asked you to be good. Why don’t you listen to me? Look...”

Wuyou pointed at the foot-washing water with a serious look. Xu Linghe held the woman and pulled her into the arms with his pinky, and his mouth brushed her face. Wuyou covered her face. How could the woman be so lovely?

“Tired, right...” The man nodded his head, leaned down and cuddled her.

“To fight against the Qi army’s Commander in Chief, will you hold your hands?”

“Yes, I will.” How could Xu Linghe be ruthless to his brother? Xu Linghe valued brotherhood. Wuyou was worried about her husband. He would suffer losses on the battlefield because of his kindness. When the man slept soundly, Wuyou got up because she would go to a place tonight. Her little hands covered the quilt well for him, and then retreated the room quietly. She turned into a wisp of smoke and flew out of Ao Ze. It only took the time about half a cup of tea to reach the Di army’s barrack. Wuyou ran to the Commander in Chief’s camp. When entering the camp, Wuyou found nobody in it. Wuyou acted with great caution to steal the map for her husband. But she rummaged the entire camp, but was still unable to find the thing she wanted. She was a little disappointed and spread her divine consciousness. Wuyou found out the distribution map in a soft leather cover. In order not to make the enemy suspicious, Wuyou put a fake map into it, covered it up and then left. Wuyou went to the Jin City, but was stopped by the guards at the city gate. In order to attract others’ attention, Wuyou used the Spirit Power to slightly hurt several persons. And the news spread to the Yan Shen’s residence. At midnight, Yan Shen was woken up and then rushed to the city wall to see who was so bold to barge into the Jin City. He climbed to the city wall and found that it was Wuyou, so he asked the people to open the city gate hurriedly. Why did the Xu Linghe’s wife come here? Shouldn’t she enjoy the happiness of reunion? Why did she come to the Jin City at midnight? Yan Shen did not dare to slight her. Wuyou flew up to the city wall. Yan Shen knew the woman’s ability. Wuyou spoke of the reason for her visit and took Di army’s distribution map from the Void Space. Yan Shen could not express how excited he was. The great gift embraced the woman’s deep affection for Xu Linghe. The old man knew the woman’s thought well. The war was ruthless, and the woman wanted to protect her husband by this means. Looking at her receding figure, Yan Shen was happy for Xu Linghe and thought that it was Xu Linghe’s fortune to have this wife. When Wuyou returned to Ao Ze, Xu Linghe was still sleeping. She prepared food for her husband. The food served on the table was Xu Linghe’s favorite. Wuyou yawned and fell asleep. When Wuyou woke up, her husband had disappeared, and the table had been cleaned spotlessly with clean bowls and chopsticks placed well on the table. The stove fire burned blue flames. Boiling water steamed to the pot lid and then condensed into rolling water drops. Wuyou stretched herself comfortably. The room was still filled with her husband’s scent. Wuyou took a deep breath. Outside the window, it looked foggy and gloomy. Her little feet stamped on the soft blanket. Writing brush and ink were still on the table, and on the Xuan paper was a pair of similar eyes with the same expression. The eyes were painted with the clearest color and maintained the original pure nature. Wuyou’s eyes were brimmed with tears unconsciously. It turned out that in her husband’s eyes, she never changed and was still what she used to be. Wuyou folded the paper up and put it into the Voic Space as a treasure. Xiao Douya knocked on the door early. When Xiao Douya entered the door and found his father was not in the room, his mouth pouted, and he searched the room again. Wuyou let out a long sigh. When could her husband accompany their child? Xiao Douya seethed on the bedside when he was pretty sure that his dad had left. Seeing her kid sad, Wuyou conjured a jumping monkey. However, the four-year-old kid had his own judgement and thought, and the little monkey could not attract him any longer.

“I miss my dad.” The little boy kept his head down, and his little fingers rubbed his clothes with the face full of tears. Wuyou held the little boy into the arms and kissed his face.

“Mom cannot kiss me.”

Xiao Douya’s face turned red, and he thought his mother was a girl, and his face just could be kissed by Mi’er. Xiao Douya raised his head up proudly. Wuyou did not know whether to laugh or cry. What was in the little kid’s mind? She really wanted to have a look at it. However, little kid’s sadness did not last long. Kids were always attracted by novelties, and Xiao Douya was not an exception. Today, Douya was going to learn illusion from Chengyi. This was the little boy’s favorite subject. Xiao Douya freed himself from his mother’s arms and ran to the square. Chengyi opened his arms to catch him. Xiao Douya was the youngest among the disciples. Looking at the senior brothers practicing the Mounting Clouds technique, Xiao Douya’s eyes were full of eager. Chengyi taught his new and youngest disciple the enlightenment class. Xiao Douya straightened his chest. Dressed in a brocade robe, the new disciple looked rather dashing. Xiao Douya practiced the vital force and horse stance. He lifted his chubby hands and looked at the front horizontally. Chengyi corrected Xiao Douya’s movements. Wuyou was lost in her kid’s serious look.

In the Di army’s barrack.

Di Qing hurried to the military camp. The battle mattered so much that it would determine the division of the domain. The opportunity for combat could not be delayed because of Lin Xiaosa. When Di Qing entered the Commander’s camp, the high-ranking military officers looked solemn. The message brought by the scouts brought pressure on the Di army. Lin Xiaosa was in a dilemma. According to his understanding of Xu Linghe, Lin Xiaosa believed that the Jin City would be as strong as iron. So it was not easy to seize the Jin City. But now, Di Qing did not fear Xu Linghe. Was the Jin City strong enough to resist the artillery?

Shenzong once had a difficult time developing the gunpowder. Di Qing was fully confident and had the gunpowder sent to the barrack. It was Di Qing’s sharp weapon to attack the city. When the gunpowder arrived, Lin Xiaosa was worried about Xu Linghe, not knowing whether the city could resist the gunpowder’s attacks. Armed with the gunpowder, Di army’s morale was boosted highly. Di Qing led his troops to push hard at the Jin City. In the South Line were ambushed Madam Yu’s ten of thousands of strong soldiers. To attack the Jin City, Di army needed to break through Madam Yu’s line of defense first, so its artillery battalion came in the van. Lin Xiaosa deployed the forces. Artillery’s flames sprang up to heaven, and the entire South Line was entangled in the war. Madam Yu had been well-prepared and set a defensive cover for all the soldiers. Di Qing intensified the offensive. In order to crack down Di Qing’s attack, Madam Yu ordered nagas to dive into the rivers to besiege the artillery battalion in order to destroy the artilleries.
