Chapter 11 tells the truth! (Ch 11)

【After seeing the hot air balloon take off. 】
[The Pinglu Jiedushi was completely stunned.]
[He looked at Chen Huaixin, and the expression on his face seemed to be saying, Sir, are you an immortal? ]
【but.】
【soon.】
[He recovered from his shock and became excited! ]
【”gentlemen.”】
[“How high can this thing fly?”]
[“Will we be hit by arrows or catapults?”]
[The Pinglu Jiedushi first asked the question that he was most concerned about. ]
【After learning that this would not happen. 】
[He smiled so hard that his mouth almost broke into a smile: “This way, we can directly attack the defenders of Tongguan from a high position. In this way, we can easily take Tongguan even without causing an earthquake!”]
[The Pinglu Jiedushi is now completely convinced. ]
[In this era when immortals are fading, he can still send ordinary people to the sky. The man in front of me must have great luck! ]
【perhaps.】
[He can really overthrow the tyrant and build a brand new empire! ]
[As a loyal follower of the dragon, I will surely rise with the tide! ]
【”even.”】
[“My little daughter may even become the mother of the country!”]
【When I think of this. 】
[The governor of Pinglu was even more excited.]
[He wanted to command his soldiers right now, relying on the rising hot air balloon to formally launch an offensive against Tongguan, at least to gain more military merits and bring his little daughter closer to the man in front of her!]
【But after hearing what he said, Chen Huaixin shook his head.】
[“I have made arrangements.”]
[“There is no need to attack Tongguan for the time being.”]
[“Let the soldiers rest well first.”]
【Chen Huaixin gave the order.】
[The governor of Pinglu was very confused, but he was not the commander-in-chief after all, so he could only suppress his confusion and carry out Chen Huaixin’s orders.]
【March, the third year of Wanhe.】
[Another hot air balloon flies over Tongguan. ]
[As the defending general, Duke Zheng naturally saw this thing a few days ago.]
[When they first saw this object and the soldiers on it, many Tongguan soldiers were shocked and panicked. Some even fell to the ground, chanting that the immortal was coming.]
[If he had not led the army for decades and had a good reputation, and had not forcibly suppressed this emotion, I am afraid that the entire army defending the city would have collapsed without a fight! ]
【”fortunately.”】
[“It is a pity that the rebels did not take this opportunity to attack.”]
[“Otherwise, our Tongguan defenders will suffer heavy losses!”]
【Duke Zheng thought with such relief at that time.】
[If the enemy army takes advantage of the moment when their morale is low and launches an offensive against them, even if he occupies a natural barrier, he will definitely pay a heavy price. I don’t know if the enemy leader is arrogant or if he failed to anticipate this situation, but the opportunity is fleeting, and he will not give the enemy a second chance like this! ]
【As for the hot air balloon. 】
[He also asked his soldiers to shoot it down, but the arrows could not fly that high, so he had to give up and ask people to find a way to resist the attack from the sky.]
[Although his external combat capability is average, that is compared with the famous generals. As a veteran, he naturally knows at a glance how much impact this hot air balloon has on the battle situation! If they can’t resist the attack from the sky, even if they occupy the natural barrier, they will be defeated in the end! ]
【”only.”】
[“It’s been so many days.”]
[“That’s unfair, the rebels haven’t used it to attack yet.”]
[“What on earth are they thinking about?”]
[Duke Zheng does not think that the invincible rebels of Yuanju who have conquered cities and strongholds all the way would not know how to use this hot air balloon, but until now, no offensive has been seen. ]
[Could it be that the rebels have a bigger plan? ]
【Duke Zheng is thinking.】
【And at this moment. 】
[The cavalry he had sent to follow the hot air balloon to prevent anyone from getting off the balloon and sneaking into Tongguan appeared in front of him in a hurry.]
[“General!”]
[“General!”]
[“Something bad is happening!”]
[“The soldiers on the Ascension threw these things down!”]
[The cavalryman brought the papers in his hand to Duke Zheng.]
[Duke Zheng took it with doubt, and after looking at it for a few seconds, his eyes suddenly widened.]
[“Assholes! These traitors! How dare they slander my minister like this! If we can catch them, we will definitely skin them alive and rip out their tendons to vent our hatred!”]
[Duke Zheng tore up all the paper in his hand.]
[The cavalrymen who brought these white papers didn’t even dare to raise their heads. ]
[He knew very well what was written on it. The unjust rebels used painting to directly depict what the ministers and the aristocratic families had done! ]
[Even the daily food, clothing, shelter and transportation of these people were all converted into food and marked on it! ]
[Even the illiterate common people and soldiers could understand what the painting meant! ]
【”but.”】
[“Some of the paintings are really interesting.”]
[“It seems to be continuous?”]
[“I really want to be able to continue reading.”]
[The cavalrymen kneel on the ground, with their heads bowed.]
[Duke Zheng smashed everything around him in a rage.]
[He could already foresee how much impact this kind of painting would have on him and Dacheng! ]
【but!】
[But he had no means of counterattack! ]
[All we could do was watch the hot air balloon spread the paintings all over Tongguan.]
【“Injustice to the rebels!”】
[“I can’t stand with you!!!”]
In the Golden Palace.
The future predicted by the Jiantian Mirror left everyone silent.
They had never expected that Chen Huaixin did not use ascension to attack, nor did he use the method of high attack to gain advantage, but instead used hot air balloons to spread such paintings to the Tongguan defenders!
Even if it’s just through the Mirror of Heaven.
They all still felt cold sweat on their backs!
“The ancients once said that the best way to use troops is to attack their hearts!”
“If it is a real battle, even if we are at a disadvantage, there will still be soldiers guarding Tongguan who will defend this land with their lives.”
“But the psychological strategy adopted by Chen Huaixin will directly cause the defenders of Tongguan to collapse their will. Let alone defending the city, they will be extremely lucky if they don’t mutiny!”
“This Chen Huaixin is truly vicious! He not only kills people… but also destroys their hearts!”
A minister said with grief and indignation.
This immediately sparked an outcry.
They all blamed Chen Huaixin, as if his use of such means was simply unethical and intolerable!
Ji Qingluo looked at them coldly. When those who were denouncing her felt the cold atmosphere and hurriedly shut their mouths, she spoke slowly.
“Why are you so resentful?”
“Is it because you also know that what you did cannot be seen in public?”
“But Chen Huaixin told the truth and exposed it?!”
