Chapter 412: Artillery Fire
Zhou Kang was very satisfied, and finally sat on the coveted dragon chair, although that chair was very different from the one on the Chongzheng Palace, but it was still a dragon chair. After he sealed his generals and staff, he made the concubines in the palace concubines. Concubine Ren has been sent to the capital, so the sister of the powerful general is the queen, and tonight is the night of candles in the cave room. When the red wave was turned, the mountain suddenly shook, and the whole room seemed to collapse.
"What's going on?" He jumped out of bed naked and screamed.
The imperial army arrived at Yiyang City on time, and after setting up camp, Zhou Heng ordered to fire cannons into the sky. Although Yiyang City was occupied by Zhou Kang, in Zhou Heng's eyes, it was his territory, and the people of Yiyang were his people, how could they really bombard it? It's just a wake-up call for Zhou Kang to stop daydreaming.
Zhou Kang soon had to report that the city was densely packed with camp tents as far as the eye could see, and he was immediately stunned when he didn't know how the imperial army could fall from the sky.
The new "queen" was naked, covering the quilt and crying. When people are queens, she is also queens, how unlucky she must be to be "blessed" by artillery fire on the night of candles in the cave room. The besiegers of the city are still dignified and well-informed, led by the current emperor himself.
Zhou Kang didn't care about his new wife, so he quickly put on his dragon robe and rushed to the city gate, I don't know if he was flustered or the torches were too dark, and when he got off the carriage, he didn't step on it well, and he almost fell and ate.
After being helped up, he pointed to the attendant beside him and said angrily: "Drag it down and slaughter it." β
If you dare not bring the lantern closer, it will disgrace him, it will be tired.
The mournful cry for mercy echoed in the night sky, and the followers were so frightened that they hit the lanterns. Stepped forward to support. The general defending the city greeted him with a miserable face, and hurriedly saluted: "Suddenly, countless armies came, and I don't know how many people ......"
Are these people heavenly soldiers? Why did it suddenly fall from the sky, not only could not be seen at a glance, but also the army was neat, and the regiments surrounded Yiyang City.
Yiyang is just a small city, and countless armies don't want to attack the city, even if they squeeze in, they can also squeeze through the city gate and trample them into mud.
There's really no way to live. The generals defending the city wanted to cry without tears. Drink from day to night. Everyone drank too much, and many of the generals were still dizzy when they were awakened, and ran out of rags, waiting to learn that they were surrounded. The wine woke up all at once. Panic.
Zhou Kang didn't know that his subordinates were in a mess. He looked at the endless tent under the moon, and his jaw dropped.
"What's going on here, this, this?" He stammered.
The military newspaper said that the imperial army was still hundreds of miles away, and Zhou Heng's march was not fast. Besides, he is the emperor. There is Huang Luogai, there is a guard of honor, how can you be fast if you want to put on the emperor's majesty? He originally wanted to celebrate one day, prepare his army for battle tomorrow, and when Zhou Heng's army arrived the day after tomorrow, he would take advantage of his unstable foothold and go out of the city to kill him by surprise, and let him be the second Emperor Zhi'an. He is not Zeng Xian, he will not tolerate Zhou Heng's suicide, he must toss him in every possible way and humiliate him to death. and then include his queen Cui into the queen/palace......
But what is the matter with this army that has fallen from the sky?
How did the generals who defended the city know, he was originally just a school captain, that is, Zhou Kang became the emperor, so he was promoted to a general and let him garrison Yiyang. He waited for Zhou Kang to tell him what was going on.
But Zhou Kang didn't care about this, didn't wait for an answer, and shouted angrily: "Say! β
At this time, the city fired cannons into the air again, and the huge cannon mouth spat flames into the sky. If this cannon is aimed at the walls of Yiyang City...... The lieutenant's legs weakened and he fell to his knees.
"Rubbish!" Zhou Kang was angry and kicked the lieutenant in the leg.
"Don't worry, don't worry, go back to the palace quickly to discuss." Lu Guohua was woken up by the loud sound of the cannon, and after a panic, he heard that Zhou Kang was patrolling the city wall, for fear that he would make a mistake, so he hurriedly ran over, just to see the scene just now. He sighed in his heart and spoke out to persuade him.
The "Imperial Palace" is the Yiyang County Ya.
Zhou Kang turned around and said, "Shoufu is here." β
He copied the imperial court system and also established a cabinet. Lu Guohua is the first strategist under his account, and a big reason why he is eager to ascend to the throne is that Lu Guohua keeps inciting, saying that as long as he ascends the throne, his soldiers will have a sense of honor and strong combat effectiveness. In addition, Zhou Kang wanted to be the emperor and wanted to go crazy, thinking that he would be able to occupy so many cities, even if he established a country. Which country is not small first and then grows larger, and slowly develops? Besides, he still has a strong dream that he can easily kill Zhou Heng, and always thinks that Zhou Heng is handsome, like a papier-mΓ’chΓ© person, and he will fall down when he touches it. If he knew that Zhou Heng was a martial arts master, he would not be so optimistic.
Under a combination of various reasons, he established himself as the emperor and named Lu Guohua as the first assistant.
The freshly baked Shousuke-sama was very excited for a day. With his ability to come from a background, not to mention being the first assistant, even being a small official who has not entered the stream is not qualified, but he didn't expect that one day he would become one person under ten thousand people. After Zhou Kang sealed him, his brain was dizzy, and he was drunk before drinking. At night, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep, and he rolled around in bed, thinking only about how to make a big difference, how to glorify his ancestors, and then, the sound of cannons in the city shattered his dream.
The army is besieging the city. He has to find a way to kill the genuine emperor Zhou Heng and let the fake and shoddy products Zhou Kang sit on the throne.
hurriedly went up to the city wall, and saw that Zhou Kang was in chaos first, so he hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him and remind him not to lose his sense of proportion in front of the low-level generals.
Zhou Kang was stunned, hurriedly straightened his waist, and said, "Passing the decree, the court will discuss." β
The so-called court council is the Imperial Council. Didn't he just "ascend the throne", and he hadn't opened an early dynasty yet.
Under the city wall, Cui Keyin appeased Lele, stood outside the tent and looked at the torches on the city, and then looked at the cannon fire that rose to the sky, and felt a little emotional. It's really hard for Zhou Heng to bring these bulky cannons together. The original cannon had a very high rate of explosion, and one person who couldn't get it right and fired the cannon first was killed. Zhou Heng thinks that cannons are good things, but it's just a matter of how to use them. After he ascended the throne, in order to drive away the Tatars and avenge the emperor, he made great efforts to find craftsmen who knew gunpowder.
At this time, ten cannons were launched, not only did they not explode, but they were also extremely powerful, not to mention the people in the city, even Shen Mingzhu was also startled, stunned for a long time, and then jumped up with cheers.
"No wonder the emperor is very calm, it turns out that there is such a good thing hidden." Shen Mingzhu ignored the identity of the first emperor and concubine, and hugged Cui Keyin happily.
Cui Keyin was overwhelmed by her, and finally broke free, and said, "It's just a cannon, what is it, the emperor has something more powerful." β
"Really?" Shen Mingzhu's eyes lit up and said, "What is that?" β
Lu Ying pursed her lips and smiled: "Concubine De, you will know just by looking at it." β
How can a secret weapon be easily revealed? Shen Mingzhu reacted suddenly, smiled, and said, "The emperor really can't get up." Said a little melancholy, if Emperor Zhi'an was so capable, why did he die young.
Cui Keyin saw a gloomy look on her face, and distracted her: "Presumably many people in the city can't sleep tonight. β
"Not really." Shen Mingzhu understood what Cui Keyin meant, and was secretly grateful, and said, "Let them also taste the taste of losing their relatives." (To be continued.) )
