Chapter 125 The American and Japanese Emperors Go Offline
The American Emperor and the Japanese Emperor sat solemnly in the magnificent palace, listening to the reports from Easton and Gayoko with grim expressions.
Upon hearing what the two said, they were so angry they almost jumped up.
"Are we just going to sit here and wait? We've already gathered almost enough grain. If we attack that small Xijing Kingdom, we should have a good chance of winning!" The American Emperor frowned, pondering the Japanese Emperor's words and weighing the pros and cons. Indeed, if they attacked Xijing Kingdom now, and the Nanzhao Kingdom took advantage of the situation and launched a surprise attack, the consequences would be unimaginable, and they would definitely suffer more losses than gains.
So, the American emperor took a deep breath and slowly said, "Let's be patient for now and continue to gather more food. You mustn't forget that the envoy from Xijing Kingdom brought back high-yield grain seeds from Nanzhao Kingdom! If we run out of food during our campaign, this war may be unwinnable!"
However, what they never expected was that, far away in the palace of the Nanzhao Kingdom, the wise and decisive emperor had already secretly issued an order, dispatching his capable general Bai Jing to quietly lead a well-equipped force, carrying incredibly powerful cannons, advancing relentlessly towards the Xijing Kingdom. Once these cannons arrived on the battlefield, the armies of the United States and Japan would inevitably suffer a crushing defeat.
Meanwhile, in a corner of Xijing Kingdom, the resourceful and intelligent Jia Xiaoyan was busily working according to the precise instructions given by the system. She skillfully used alum and other materials to meticulously craft powerful explosive charges. These charges would become deadly weapons on the battlefield, prepared for any eventuality.
Half a month later, the United States and Japan finally gathered more food. They decided to join forces to attack and conquer Xijing Kingdom. Bai Jing had been traveling day and night, leading a team equipped with divine cannons to the border of Xijing Kingdom. They cleverly hid in the mountains and forests, awaiting further instructions from the Emperor of Xijing Kingdom.
The American and Japanese emperors, unable to contain themselves any longer, decided to risk an attack on Xijing Kingdom. They amassed a large army and marched in a mighty force towards the border of Xijing Kingdom. When their troops arrived at the border, they found that the enemy was already prepared.
The soldiers on both sides faced each other, the atmosphere tense and on the verge of exploding. Just then, Bai Jing received the order to attack from the Emperor of Xijing. With a command, the cannons roared, and shells rained down on the US-Japan allied forces. The US-Japan allied forces were thrown into chaos, and soldiers scattered in all directions.
Seeing this, the soldiers of Xijing Kingdom immediately launched a charge. Under the combined attack of Xijing Kingdom and Nanzhao Kingdom, the soldiers of Meili Kingdom and Japan were routed. In the end, seeing that the situation was hopeless, the American emperor and the Japanese emperor could only lead their remaining troops in a sorry state and flee back to their own countries.
Standing atop the city wall, Jia Xiaoyan watched the disheveled state of the American and Japanese emperors, a mocking smile and endless hatred curling at the corners of her lips. This scene was witnessed by Jiang Liushen, whose eyes flashed with a hint of doubt. He simply couldn't understand why this young lady, according to his investigation, had no contact with foreign countries.
A loud "bang!" rang out. Thick smoke billowed out, and the pungent smell caused everyone to cover their mouths and noses.
"What's going on?" a general exclaimed in shock.
Jiang Liushen quickly calmed down, his eyes scanning his surroundings.
Jiang Liushen, along with the soldiers and generals present, all stared wide-eyed at what lay ahead.
The Emperor Xiao and the Emperor Ri, who were still on the run, were nowhere to be seen; all that remained of them was a large, dark crater! It turned out that Jia Xiaoyan had shot the explosive charge in her hand with an arrow.
Looking at the towering flames and billowing smoke, Jia Xiaoyan felt a mix of emotions. She felt exhilarated that she had finally avenged her blood feud, yet she was also acutely aware of the immense trouble this action might bring. Her hands trembled slightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but she had no regrets!
"Miss Jia, could you please tell me what's going on? And what is that thing you're holding? Why is it able to unleash such immense power?" Jiang Liushen's face was as calm as still water, seemingly without a ripple, but his steps were steady and powerful as he slowly approached Jia Xiaoyan. His sharp, hawk-like gaze was fixed firmly on Jia Xiaoyan's eyes, as if trying to see through them to uncover all hidden secrets and flaws.
Meanwhile, the others around them began to whisper and murmur among themselves. One of them lowered his voice and said, "Gentlemen, do you think that what Miss Jia was holding just now might be the legendary new weapon that the Nanzhao Kingdom has meticulously developed?" Another shook his head and replied with a hint of doubt, "It doesn't seem likely. I've heard that the power of that new weapon is much greater than this. Could it be... that those giant cannons we saw on the other side earlier were the real new weapon?" The crowd discussed animatedly, and for a time, many different opinions arose.
Faced with the speculation and doubts of the crowd, Jia Xiaoyan's lips curled into a faint smile. She calmly explained, "You all may not know, but this is not a new weapon designed by your princess. The real new weapons are far more powerful than this, such as those enormous cannons you just saw across the way—those are the truly new weapons!"
Just then, Emperor Jiang Liushen of Xijing Kingdom suddenly spoke up and asked, "Miss Jia, as far as I know, you just personally killed the Japanese Emperor and the American Emperor. Have you considered the serious consequences that this action may have?"
Hearing this, Jia Xiaoyan's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly composed herself and replied calmly, "Even if it costs me my life, I will have no regrets! It is truly gratifying to be able to kill such a villain! Besides, the situation on the battlefield is constantly changing and chaotic. How could I possibly distinguish who is the Japanese Emperor and who is the American Emperor? They are all enemies anyway, so killing them is killing them. I will never regret it!" After speaking, Jia Xiaoyan raised her head and looked directly into Jiang Liushen's eyes without any fear.
“Miss Jia, your courage is commendable, but the strength of the United States and Japan should not be underestimated. They will certainly not let this go easily,” Jiang Liushen said slowly. “Although we have won this war, if it triggers a crazy retaliation from the two countries, the people of my Xijing Kingdom will suffer immense loss of life.”
Suddenly, Jia Xiaoyan had a flash of inspiration and a plan came to her mind. She remembered that the United States and Japan often fought openly and covertly for resources and spheres of influence, appearing to be allies but actually harboring their own ulterior motives.
