A few days ago, Zhongshu Province, located in Jiangning, the capital of Luofu State, held a meeting overnight. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The attendees were all the Shangshu and Shilang of the Six Ministries, as well as the Shizhong of the Menxia Province, who was responsible for deliberations, and the celebrant eunuch who supervised for the emperor.

"Prime Minister Li, tomorrow morning, this official will join you no matter what, millions of people in Linbei Mansion, you dare to hide it and not report it!"

It was the Ministry of Industry Shangshu who spoke, and the dispatch of the conscription did not pass him, which was a dereliction of duty, and the Hubu Shangshu also stood up and spat out: "There are hundreds of thousands of households missing all of a sudden, how can the old man explain to the saint." ”

Prime Minister Li Cheng picked up a cup of tea and chuckled: "Don't be impatient, the two of you are doing things for the saints, not to mention that you want to participate, go to Wu Mujie, participate in the prime minister, isn't that the opposite direction?" Monkey business! ”

"Humph! According to the grade, the old man also added the title of Taifu, which is also a product, you don't think that you are the prime minister of Zhongshu Province Zuo, it is amazing. ”

Hubu Shangshu is more than 70 years old, and in the Luofu Imperial Court, he is also a very senior generation, and often does not save face for Zhongshu.

"Don't be angry, the prime minister held a meeting this time, but it is not a mutual prevarication, the stakes are high, then Wu Mujie is now the king of Chu, you and I are not even mixed with the princes of the country, he is playing now, he wants to increase his troops and attack Pingyang, what do you think?"

After all, Prime Minister Li Cheng is in charge of a country, and Tai Chi is slippery.

"I ......" Lu Shangshu doesn't know anything about marching and fighting, and he can't speak, what Taifu, compared to what is the one-word king of the Eight Classics, isn't that an underground, a heaven?

"This prime minister has allocated 500 cannons to give the king of Chu the greatest support!"

Prime Minister Li stood up, to be honest, he gave a governor with a different surname a king, and even his daughter was the county lord, which was unheard of, and he was also very unconvinced.

"It's... Zuo Xiang, is it appropriate to take out the cannon so early? "The military department is a little puzzled.

"So, you don't understand the deep meaning of the saint to Wu Mujie as king, take a good look and study hard!" Prime Minister Li Cheng, who is 40 years old, is in a high position, which makes many officials over 50 or 60 years old very unconvinced.

"Hmph, I know that I play some tricks, the old man is ashamed to be with you villain, the old man is gone, and the official is dismissed!"

Lu Shangshu was full of emotion, grabbed the black gauze hat on his head, threw it heavily on the ground, and then walked away.

"This..."

All the officials watched Lu Shangshu leave, and they all stood up slightly and looked at Prime Minister Li Cheng.

"Let him go, old horseman, fight with Ben and play you to death!"

Prime Minister Li Cheng's face turned cold, and he said, "Pass on the order, allocate 500 cannons, increase 100,000 troops, and 8,000 quintals of grain and grass, and send them to Jinling to help the King of Chu!" ”

"Zuo Xiang, don't you need to play the saint?" Bing Shushang glanced at the eunuch and asked in a low voice.

Prime Minister Li said impatiently: "It's not a decisive battle with the Xia Dynasty, the little things that are big have to be played by the saint, what is the use of the saint still wanting you and me?" ”

At this time, Pingyang County was like ants on a hot pot, they didn't expect Yang Jian's troops to move so quickly, seeing that the army of Luofu Kingdom was approaching the city, there was no one in front of them who could stop the enemy.

And Wu Mujie is also camping, not besieging the city, he is waiting.

In the evening of this day, the "army" sent by Zhongshu Province finally arrived, and the thousands of carriages that went first were ready to go to Hanguan, but they were ordered by Prime Minister Li Cheng to urgently mobilize and drive to Jinling.

"Good!"

Wu Mujie happily came to a carriage, opened the red cloth draped on it, and there was a cannon lying inside, and he ordered: "Pass on this official order, strictly keep secrets, wait for a good rest, make food and eat well on the third watch, and attack the city on the fifth watch!" ”

"My lord, there are more than 50,000 of us, and the cloud ladder is still being prepared, how can we capture Pingyang Jiancheng?"

After the death of the pro-soldier captain, a new pro-soldier captain was immediately added, and he asked with a puzzled expression.

"There will be no fortified city in the future, understand?" Wu Mujie looked at the artillery in front of him and said seriously.

At dawn the next day, several soldiers from Pingyang County had already begun to yawn on the city wall, and a chief came over, kicked one of them, and shouted: "You one by one, cheer up, don't you know that the army of Luofu is on the other side?" ”

"I... I don't want to fight, I want a daughter-in-law! A young man in his twenties had a flushed face.

"Haha!" Suddenly there was a burst of laughter, and everyone's spirits were finally mobilized again.

"Who wants to fight, I still miss my son, I really envy the people of Luofu Country!" Shi Chang suddenly thought of his son, and playing with him was the happiest thing for him.

"Boss, you're not right, we still have to defend our homeland, the people of Luofu are too bad, they want to occupy our hometown, rob us of our wealth, and make us slaves." One of the soldiers objected, and everyone nodded silently when they heard this, and the weapons in their hands tightened.

"Look, what's that?"

At this time, I don't know who has sharp eyes, and suddenly saw that the army of Luofu Kingdom was dispatched, and in front of the army, there were still people building an earthen platform, and then people in groups and threes lifted black pipes one by one and erected them on the earthen platform.

"Fire!"

Wu Mujie nodded, and then someone raised a flag and commanded.

"Bang bang bang!"

A cannon sound, because of the angle problem, only a hundred shells hit the strong city wall, but enough, the soldiers on the city wall were frightened by the sound of cannons and the huge lethality of the shells, as if they were heavenly soldiers descending from earth.

Wu Mujie frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with the hit rate, he turned his head and said to one of the riders, "Go and read the book of surrender." ”

The rider was a death row prisoner, as long as he could complete his mission, he could live, he nodded, drank a glass of wine to strengthen his courage, and then rode forward, came to the city wall, took out the book and read: "I am now leading the army of benevolence and righteousness, and I am ordered to march north, and everywhere I go, I have no crime with Minqiu, and you are all the people of the world, why fight to the death for the king?" But whoever surrenders is the people of my Luofu country, and those who open the city gate will have a reward of 1,000 taels ......"

The more he read to the back, the more nervous he shivered, but for some reason, no one on the city wall shot arrows down.

For a while, all the people up and down the city wall were silent.

"Boss, let's surrender, I miss my daughter-in-law, I don't want to fight!" The young man's face was flushed again, and he shouted loudly.

"I ......" Shi Chang couldn't make up his mind all of a sudden, he looked up at the eager eyes of everyone, if it was really as Luofu said, he couldn't believe it, the northern princes were all plundering wealth.

He gritted his teeth, threw down his weapon, and said, "The people of Luofu live and work in peace and contentment, and I will also be the people of Luofu Kingdom!" ”

On the one hand, he was a little afraid of the cannons, and he seemed to be ready to give up resistance, which was the will of the people.

"Yay!"

On the city walls, the soldiers laid down their weapons and jumped for joy.

I'm afraid that even Wu Mujie himself didn't expect that the soldiers of Pingyang County mutinied one after another, and in this way, almost bloodless, Pingyang County fell.
