Lin Xiang rode on the horse as if he had discovered the fire on the ground. The horse was so hot when he rode past the fire that it cried. Its four hooves kicked the fire everywhere, and the tree trunk with flames fell towards the bag on Su Qing’s back.

Su Qing raised her whip and whipped the tree trunk away. The tree trunk with flames flew directly towards Lin Xiang. He quickly led the horse to dodge, but the horse was already frightened and ignored orders. When it saw the torch coming, it flew away with Lin Xiang.

“Phew!”

Lin Xiang wanted to rein in the horse but could not stop it. The horse galloped towards the big tree.

Lin Xiang was scared out of his wits. He had no choice but to jump off the horse and land in the thick snow. The warhorse dodged in time when it was about to hit the tree and ran far away.

“What happened?”

Xiao Zeyu asked Su Qing in a low voice. Su Qing’s eyes were cold as she looked at Lin Xiang’s head, face, and body covered in snow. He crawled out of the snow in a sorry state.

“This person is very suspicious. He deliberately let the horse hooves kick the torch onto my bag, wanting to ignite the big killing weapon to kill us.”

“Men, take Lin Xiang down.”

Xiao Zeyu’s expression turned cold when he heard Su Qing’s words. He ordered the soldiers to go over and capture Lin Xiang, who had just crawled out of the snow.

Lin Xiang heard him shout.

“Young master, 1 didn’t do it on purpose.”

He thought that he had done it without anyone knowing. Horses were animals, and animals would lose control when they were frightened. If Xiao Zeyu punished him because of this, it would be hard to convince people.

“Tie him up.”

Xiao Zeyu didn’t give him a chance to defend himself. He ordered his men to gagged him, tie him up with a rope, and throw him onto the horse’s back.

Along the way, Lin Xiang was being controlled until he was dizzy. This position was highly uncomfortable. The saddle under his body made his internal organs uncomfortable. His mouth was blocked, and he could only breathe through his nose. His face was red from suffocation. When he almost reached the coal mine, he was about to faint.

Su Qing ordered people to put down Lin Xiang and give him the punishment of tendons and bones. There was no time to delay, so she used the most effective interrogation method.

After Su Qing finished using Lin Xiang’s tendons and bones, she watched as he twisted and turned in pain on the ground. After a while, she ordered someone to remove the cotton cloth covering his mouth. She squatted in front of Lin Xiang and called in a low and cold voice,

“Tell me, what is your plan? Where did you set up the ambush?”

She said it very firmly, not giving Lin Xiang a chance to quibble.

“No…”

Lin Xiang was in so much pain that he could not speak, but he still forced himself to hold on. This was because he knew he would die if he said it. Even if the young master let him off, he would die an extremely miserable death after betraying General Wan.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to say it. I have plenty of time to watch you slowly die from the pain.”

Su Qing’s cold and ruthless voice made Lin Xiang tremble. This woman was indeed cruel. When Qiu Yongkang devised this plan, he reminded himself not to play tricks. Playing tricks in front of Su Qing would only lead to death.

According to the plan, he was told to lure the Xiao Family Army and Su Qing to the coal mine. The Wan Family Army had set up an inescapable trap. He only needed to attract the Xiao Family Army into the trap according to the plan. He did not need to do anything else.

However, the Wan Family Army did not care about Qiu Yongkang’s orders. Lin Xiang especially looked down on this person who betrayed his brothers in exchange for glory and wealth. Naturally, he was not willing to listen to Qiu Yongkang’s orders. He did not take Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu to heart. So what if they were Xiao Heng’s children?

Xiao Heng had been killed by the general and the current emperor, so what ability did a powerless child of the Xiao family have to resist the iron cavalry of the Wan family army?

It was also because he underestimated the enemy that he revealed his tracks. It was also because he was eager for quick success and wanted to blow up Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing, which led to his death.

He regretted it, but there was no medicine for regret in this world. He had to pay the price for his stupidity.

Lin Xiang’s endurance had reached the limit. His mentality had collapsed. He was willing to do anything as long as he could stop this endless pain.

“I… Speak.”

Lin Xiang finally confessed. After hearing that this matter was indeed planned by Qiu Yongkang, Xiao Zeyu’s eyes were filled with anger. He began to arrange his troops and generals to beat them at their own game. He wanted to shatter the trap set by the Wan family army.

“Shuisheng, there’s no need to be so troublesome.”

Hearing Xiao Zeyu’s order, Su Qing opened the bag on the horse and took out the grenades.

“Using this is simple and fast. We can still preserve our forces.”

The Xiao Family Army was precious; they could defeat the enemy with the smallest number of casualties. Why would they risk their lives?

“How do I use it?”

Xiao Zeyu asked Su Qing. Su Qing pointed at the rope on the grenade and said, You pulled it and threw it out.

“Even simpler than a great killing weapon?”

Xiao Zeyu couldn’t believe it. A big killing machine had to be lit up and thrown out, but this didn’t even need to be lit up?

“Yes.”

Su Qing nodded. When Xiao Zeyu and Cheng Yu discussed the military situation, she made these grenades. She and Zhong Yong made these grenades in the blacksmith shop these days. They had never been filled with gunpowder. If they were filled with gunpowder, they would be deadly.

She made over 50, gave Cheng Yu 20, and brought the rest.

“Good stuff.”

Xiao Zeyu was very excited. With this, they wouldn’t have to worry about the Wan Family Army setting up a trap for them. However, he was still a little worried.

“Just now, Lin Xiang said they have a great killing weapon.”

“It’s fine. We’ll strike first.”

Su Qing had the air of a great general. Right now, the Wan Family Army must think they know nothing. Before moving, they would wait until the Xiao Family Army was in their pockets. This time gap was their best chance.

“Alright.”

Xiao Zeyu looked at the confident Su Qing and smiled. Why did he feel that as long as Qing’er was here, all the problems would be solved?

“You guys learn how to use it.”

Xiao Zeyu had called over a few personal guards. He did not dare to use soldiers who he did not know their backgrounds casually. Lin Xiang was an example.

After Su Qing’s short training, the soldiers had mastered how to use grenades. Half of the army stayed where they were while the rest continued to move forward.

To be safe, Su Qing disguised a soldier who looked like Lin Xiang as a fake Lin Xiang to confuse the other party.

Xiao Zeyu led the army into the trap the Wan Jia Army set up. Su Qing jumped onto a tree and observed her surroundings. Her wargod ability had already reached level 70, and she could feel the murderous aura around her. This proved that Lin Xiang was not lying.

“Ready, throw.”

When half of the army had entered the pocket formation, Xiao Zeyu gave a few orders to his guards. He took the lead to pull the rope and throw it towards the center of the formation.

“Boom!”

The grenades exploded, and the ambush archers flew into the sky. The bodyguards also pulled the rope and threw the grenades. Xiao Zeyu instructed them to throw the grenades into the various eye points of the pocket formation, and the ground was littered with corpses.

The Wan Clan Army prepared to kill Xiao Zeyu had suffered heavy losses. The pocket formation was utterly destroyed. The commander in the lead shouted hoarsely in the smoke, ordering his subordinates who were already in a mess.

“Throwing out a great killing weapon, throwing out a great killing

weapon…Hurry up and throw out the killing weapon..”
