Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Chapter 214: Food Arrived

With what Tian Xing'er said just now, Tian Zhenwei was no longer idle. He would go to check on the iron bucket from time to time and ask the people who were carrying it. It was a pity that no one told him what it was used for.

"Hey, sir, don't ask anymore. Miss Xing'er will let you try later. Why are you in such a hurry?" Xu Er saw Tian Zhenwei wandering around, which was really not a good thing.

"Okay, you're still bothering me, your boss." Tian Zhenwei slapped Xu Er in the face and said, "Didn't I ask you to check ahead? Is the pit dug? I'm going to use it later, so don't bother me."

"Got it, got it. Oh my good brother, I'll go right away." Xu Er smiled and walked away, not caring about Tian Zhenwei anymore. He still had to help check the situation, and at least remove part of the huge rock that was blocking the way.

The boulder still needs to be blown up with gunpowder, so he has to go and check it out.

"Bang, bang, bang." Several explosions were heard, and huge rocks broke. Everyone helped to clean them up, and now they could almost see the situation on the other side clearly.

"How is it? Have you seen anyone?" Tian Zhenwei came over and asked.

"We can't see them now, so who knows where they are hiding? Maybe they are hiding in the area ahead. There are densely packed forests on both sides of that forest. There are footprints everywhere on the ground from all directions." Xu Er said as he looked forward.

"Well, should we still do it?" Tian Zhenwei was a little worried. What Xing'er had just said might make him unable to try the iron bucket.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhenwei, the hole has been dug for you, and everything is ready. Now it's almost time to get ready."

Tian Zhenwei saw that everything was ready. The long cylindrical kettle-like iron barrels he had seen before now had their lids opened, and a package of something was placed on the top. He saw a line on the side, and he knew it was gunpowder.

"Why put gunpowder in the barrel? What are you going to do? What should I do?" Tian Zhenwei didn't understand what was going on for a moment.

"Uncle Zhenwei, you should do the same as Tieqi next to you. First light the fuse in the barrel and then light the fuse of the barrel behind. The shorter fuse in the barrel can blast the gunpowder inside out of the barrel. When the gunpowder flies out and reaches its destination, it will almost explode. We have tested it in small packages to ensure its safety." Tian Xinger said confidently.

This was a barrel that a blacksmith in the city saw, so they asked him to help modify it. As for the gunpowder, it was made by other Jia Dazuo and his men. A war was about to break out, and they had just returned to Yingzhou Prefecture not long ago, so they happened to be in time. They had also just made it not long ago, so there were only a few of them.

Brought them all here.

"Okay, I believe you, Xing'er girl, but don't cheat me again." Tian Zhenwei looked eager to try, without any sign of nervousness or worry.

The Tian brothers and sisters couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay, everyone, quickly pull the convoy back, pay attention to safety, and move quickly." Xu Er and Tian Yuheng directed the grain team to retreat. Tian Zhenwei had already taken his position at this time.

They had one person on each side, Tian Zhenwei fired first, and Tie Qi followed later. They fired from both sides in order to drive out the Westerners on both sides. Even if they didn't hit anyone, this legendary heartless cannon could still kill all the hidden people.

Everything was ready. Tian Zhenwei excitedly lit the fuse and heard a "boom". A sound louder than any previous gunpowder explosion was heard, and then they heard screams coming from outside.

But Tian Xing'er and the others did not stop, so Tie Qi immediately ignited the powder keg on his side.

Another huge "boom" sound resounded through the sky.

"Ah, help!" A louder scream was heard, and then Tian Xing'er and the others saw a figure running out from the place where the explosion had happened before. He was covered in blood and looked scary, and his battle clothes were all torn.

Those people fell down after running a few steps. When the smoke cleared, they saw a pool of red blood where the explosion had occurred.

Tian Xing'er and the others waited for a while before sending someone over to check.

"You guys go over and see if there are any survivors. If there are, bring them here." Tian Zhenwei gave an order and his men started to act. Tian Zhenwei now felt very impressive. Although he felt uncomfortable from the explosion of the explosives just now, he felt great.

I have been trapped here by these Westerners for more than half a month. Now that I have solved the problem myself, I feel so relieved.

His men went to check and soon came back with only some weapons, but no one was seen.

"What? Are there no survivors?" Tian Yuheng asked curiously when he saw that no one brought back the Westerners.

"No, we are all dead here." After the bombing, Tie Qi took his men to check the situation on his elder brother's side, while the side he bombed was checked by Zhao Shi's men.

"Military advisor, we don't have any here either. They are all dead, and they died tragically. Some of them are bleeding." The leading soldier reported back. "But it seems that the combined forces of our two sides are not as many as we saw before. Maybe their main force has left this place. There are still some footprints on our side heading west."

Zhao Shi thought that these Westerners might change their route to join his team. Now was not the time to pursue them. Their mission was to deliver food. He said to Tian Xing'er and the others, "Forget it. Even if there are any survivors, they will commit suicide when they get to us. These Westerners are all ruthless characters."

"Okay, then let's pack up and continue to deliver food to Qishan. General Li Yun and the others must be waiting anxiously." Tian Yuheng replied.

"Well, thank you Miss Tian and Mr. Tian for this time. Zhao would like to thank you again on behalf of our general."

"Military Advisor Zhao, you don't have to be so polite. You are so brave in defending the border for the country. We are just doing our part."

Tian Yuheng and Zhao Shi exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Tian Xing'er took the opportunity to leave and arranged for the others to prepare to set off.

The team quickly packed up and moved the huge rocks away, clearing a driveway. Grain carts were pushed out one after another, and they finally started heading towards Qishan.

The team was now much larger, and they did not encounter any other Westerners on the rest of the journey. It took them three days to finally reach Qishan.

General Li Yun's right deputy general stayed behind in the camp this time. When he saw Zhao Shi and Tian Xing'er's grain delivery team coming, he was very happy. They gave almost all their grain to General Li Yun, mainly because they didn't have much grain to begin with.

He hurried down from the top of the city wall to greet them in person, "Hey, you finally came, that's great, that's great, the general is not in the camp, he has gone out to fight, if you were a few days later, we would really be out of food, "
