Chapter 12: It’s here!
The war that Gu Yu had been looking forward to for a long time finally began, making him even more excited than Gu Mengyao.
His eagerness to go straight to the battlefield to kill the enemy relaxed Gu Mengyao’s tense mood, and she didn’t have too many worries about the upcoming war.
No matter what, this battle must be won!
Even if the enemy’s numbers were large, they would not be a match for Linfeng Kingdom.
Because Gu Yu was the confidence she had in her heart.
“A Yu, let’s go, we’ll finish quickly and be home sooner!”
No longer wasting time in the same spot, Gu Mengyao glanced at Gu Yu, her face filled with confident determination to win, shining brighter than the sun in the sky!
Gu Yu naturally liked such a handsome little wife even more.
Especially, as they went to the battlefield together openly, he felt as if they had returned to the past.
Since it was unavoidable for Gu Mengyao to go to war, Gu Yu would not continue to be bothered, but would support Gu Mengyao with all his might to win this war without any suspense!
“Mm, I will be by your side.”
Gu Yu smiled at Gu Mengyao, his words of determination clearly expressing his feelings.
He would accompany Gu Mengyao for a lifetime.
No matter how dangerous it was, he would not be afraid.
…
When Gu Mengyao and Gu Yu led the soldiers out on horseback, and saw that the enemy’s numbers were indeed large, Gu Mengyao could no longer hide her trump card.
Gu Yu’s guess was very accurate; the Witch Priest would not easily let Linfeng Kingdom go.
After gathering the forces of several countries around Linfeng Kingdom, the number of soldiers was several times that of Linfeng Kingdom.
If Gu Yu hadn’t produced explosives, this war would likely have been a losing battle.
However, unfortunately, there were no “ifs”.
The large quantity of explosives in Gu Yu’s hands could completely deal with the current war, and he had the confidence to win.
“A Yu, looking at the current situation, we can only proceed according to the previous plan. Distribute the explosives!”
Looking at the dark mass of troops in front of them, Gu Mengyao unconsciously tightened her grip on the reins. After not hesitating for too long, she directly said to Gu Yu.
Even though she wanted to keep the news of Gu Yu producing explosives a secret, the current situation did not allow for further delay.
Win this war first, then worry about other things.
Fortunately, the two of them had already thought about various possible situations in the previous few days and had ordered the soldiers to cooperate in drills, so they were not in a state of panic now.
The method of using explosives had also been taught to some trusted subordinates, and after seeing the power of the explosives, they were all amazed, calling it the work of an immortal.
Their surprised reactions amused Gu Yu, who thought they were so shocked by simple explosives.
If they saw airplanes and cannons, they would probably faint from shock!
“Mm, I’ll give the order now.”
After receiving Gu Mengyao’s order, Gu Yu immediately nodded, then directly rode his horse to the rear of the army, found a few people, and told them a few words. He then saw the excited and tense light in their eyes, and their eager expressions made Gu Yu shake his head.
Throwing explosives was not much different from setting off fireworks, was it?
It was just a matter of the scale of the commotion.
However, Linfeng Kingdom didn’t even seem to have fireworks…
When they had potassium nitrate in the cave of the treasure trove, Gu Yu felt that he could do business with fireworks and firecrackers in the capital, and it would definitely be the most popular!
“Are you General Gu Mengyao?”
“Indeed!”
Pfft…
While Gu Yu was thinking about developing new business, the enemy leader’s conversation with Gu Mengyao almost made him laugh out loud in front of the two armies.
This conversation sounded so funny!
Would they follow it up with something like, “Never seen such a shameless person…”?
Gu Yu, who was from modern times, knew that no one here watched “guichu” videos, so he could only endure the urge to laugh by himself. He then continued to watch the very serious scene, with everyone with stern faces facing each other.
The atmosphere was tense, like a drawn bowstring that was about to break at any moment.
This did not affect Gu Yu’s mood; instead, he thought that although his wife had participated in several wars, this was probably the first time she had come to the battlefield with him.
Now, being in close proximity to the enemy, Gu Yu found it quite novel.
After all, Gu Yu was just a modern person who had transmigrated and had never personally experienced war, nor had he had the opportunity to come to the battlefield to face the enemy.
Of course, even if Gu Yu were not a transmigrator, many ancient people had never been to the battlefield.
Such an opportunity was very precious!
It was a pity that there was no mobile phone to take pictures as a souvenir…
While Gu Yu was thinking about all sorts of things in his mind, Gu Mengyao had already exchanged a few words with the enemy leader, but because they couldn’t agree on anything, the atmosphere became even more tense.
The soldiers of both armies were also tense, ready to attack at any moment.
This war was inevitable; this was a fact that everyone clearly understood, even if the leaders of both armies were getting along well.
Moreover, the leaders of both sides would not, and could not.
It was just a show of formality before launching a war, like burning incense to worship Buddha; if you don’t burn incense, it always feels like something is missing.
Of course, among the crowd, Gu Yu, who was distracted, was probably the only one.
However, Gu Yu, who had always nipped danger in the bud, could be so leisurely now because he was confident.
He had ordered those people to act earlier, and judging by the time, it should be soon.
Gu Yu had tested the power of explosives several times.
This was the debut of explosives, and Gu Yu had not been stingy, directly taking out a large dose of explosives, which would definitely give the enemy a very unforgettable memory.
When Gu Yu estimated that the time was almost right, he slowly rode his horse to Gu Mengyao’s side. He didn’t say anything, but just nodded at her, signaling that the show was about to begin.
Perhaps it was because of the large number of soldiers, but the enemy looked unhurried and confident, as if they were sure to win, which made Gu Yu even more amused by their premature confidence.
If they had attacked without further ado, Linfeng Kingdom would have suffered some casualties.
But the enemy was so leisurely, and they would probably cry later.
Just as Gu Yu thought this, a deafening explosion suddenly erupted behind the enemy army, accompanied by rapidly spreading flames, making the smile on Gu Yu’s lips even brighter.
It’s here!
