The fire is blazing, like the power of heaven.

The corners of Han Ping's eyes twitched, and finally he just sighed, because he had already heard countless shouts in the forest.

Sure enough, there was an ambush! And there are definitely a lot, if it is to stop this million army, I am afraid that there are at least 100,000 soldiers lurking here, but ...... How many more can you get out of a fire?

"What? Burned out?! All dead?! ”

Prince Nanming, who was far away in the prince's mansion in Dawan City, bit his nails nervously, and suddenly kicked over the incense burner, and then laughed.

"This damn brute, he dared to do such a crime, good! Did this king just rob you of a few women? It is their blessing that this king can look down on them, and it is also the blessing of you, a marquis, that you dare to come out and be an enemy of this king? Enemy of the whole Nanming? It's good, it's great, but it's just a rootless Ping, look at how this king cleans you up! ”

The crown prince turned his head and glanced at the few people kneeling below, and shouted loudly: "Call the general Fu Pingbo to come to see this king!" ”

The next person is embarrassed: "The old general no longer asks about political affairs, and he is at home to raise his grandson, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid ......"

The crown prince immediately roared: "Bird! It doesn't matter if he's squatting or squinting, dead or alive, he's going to see him right away, right away, right away! If you don't come? Hum! He was punished for the great crime of treason, and he was copied all over the house! ”

The next man hurriedly claimed that it was, and sure enough, in less than an hour, the old general Fu Pingbo was 'carried'.

Fu Pingbo, the highest military authority in the Southern Ming Dynasty, worships the general, sits on the title of Marquis of Fengyin, and is the Duke of Moral Education in the Dynasty, the entire Nanming has both the title of Marquis that can be passed on to his son, and the title of Grand Duke himself, and he is just such a person.

The old man lived a lifetime, most of his life was spent on the horse, in the early years, some people called him the god of war in the Southern Ming Dynasty, he directly asked the literati to punish himself, and issued an order for his own crimes, he put a chain on his shoulder blades and went to the temple shirtless alone, so that the lord of the country gave him punishment. Since then, no one has put any name on him, and the saying of 'Loyal I' has been passed down from mouth to mouth.

However, the judgment of the lord of Nanming against him came from a joke after a banquet and drinking.

"Old man treacherous."

Once the crown prince asked His Majesty about this, and His Majesty said: "The old man carries half of the country and the Ming Dynasty on his shoulders." ”

What do you mean? The prince didn't understand it too much, but because he didn't understand it, he was in trouble at this time, so he immediately thought of this first person in the Southern Ming military who had never won a battle, but had never lost, and had fought countless battles in his life.

"Fu Lao, what's wrong with you?"

The prince pretended to be concerned, went up and took Fu Pingbo's hand and asked.

Fu Pingbo's face was full of sorrow, and he sighed and said: "Hey, I'm old, it's useless, and then I can still let the prince worry about you, and the old man has not lived in vain in this life." ”

"Don't say that," the prince said: "Nanming can't do without the old general, and now that marquis has thrown himself into the Northern Qi Dynasty and taken four of my cities in a row, and the old general needs to punish him, so that the little rabbit cub knows that the country's prestige is inviolable!" ”

Fu Pingbo couldn't help but sigh.

To tell the truth, he was pretending to be sick at all, to put it more truthfully, the battle report on the front line, he and His Majesty saw it almost at the same time, the military has an unwritten rule, but all war reports must be sent in duplicate, one to the palace, and one to his hands.

When he saw the news of a household, the old man immediately said that he was sick at home, and he couldn't live or die.

If it is said that the person who knows Fu Pingbo in the world is His Majesty himself, then the one who knows His Majesty best is also this general.

Don't look at His Majesty Xià Sometimes he is reckless, but he is never confused in the face of great rights and wrongs, even in the face of his own son. The prince robbed the hottest woman of the most popular family of Hou who made great contributions and died in the line of duty, this matter can be described as a sensation, the people of the country are talking about the "cruelty" of the women of the Hou Mansion of a family, and on the other hand, they are talking about the fact that the prince's beasts are not as good, after all, a family of Hou is "not cold", you are a leader and you are worried about the daughter-in-law of others, this matter will make the people of the world cold.

On the surface, this is the case, but Fu Pingbo doesn't think so, because he understands His Majesty.

How could His Majesty watch the crown prince make such an irreversible mistake? Can you really let the prince take in those women who are a marquis? How is that possible. And the crown prince, as a person who is bound to ascend to the great treasure, how can he lack women? Not to mention anything else, it is the show girl who is sent to his prince's mansion every day, and I am afraid that I can't count a pair of slaps. So it's not so much that the prince wants to rob women, it's better to say ...... He is going to rob the Ning Xiang Building!

Who doesn't want Ningxiang Building? For several months in a row, it acquired the surrounding properties at a high price and transformed them into secret workshops, which would produce a large number of unique delicacies every day, especially refined salt.

This titular restaurant is almost a cornucopia, and the money gathered every day is almost overflowing, who doesn't blush when you look at it? Besides, who in this world is not short of money? His Majesty is short of money, he himself is poor to death, and he has to go to Princess Wenhua to eat every day, which is already a secret known to the world.

The crown prince needs money even more, because His Majesty is too young, so he ...... The crown prince was very afraid that His Majesty would give birth to a few more younger brothers, so now he is doing everything possible to recruit the Manchu civil and military, including money and grain...... Nature is a top priority.

And the owner of Ning Xiang Lou, a family marquis, is a rootless Ping, he died, and all this huge inheritance belonged to his women, and ...... It's all women who haven't been through the door! It's like a stone dropped on the road, just waiting for someone else to pick it up!

It's a pity that on the day of the funeral of a marquis, a woman of a marquis suddenly became mighty, destroyed half of the imperial city, and preached their own force to the entire Nanming, and there were fewer people who were worried about Ningxianglou, but this still did not include the prince, this goods must have thought that as long as the women who could win a household, they would naturally get Ningxianglou, so they braved the disapproval of the world and robbed the daughters of the lord's family.

He thought very beautifully, as long as it was all snatched up, then Ning Xianglou would naturally become an ownerless thing, and he could naturally take it over, but ...... Who knew that halfway through the plan, this family was 'alive' again.

To be honest, Fu Pingbo really wanted to laugh, he really wanted to point at the prince's nose and scold, 'Silly bird!' ’

What made Fu Pingbo want to laugh the most was that the prince himself didn't understand what his father meant, and he let him mess around at the beginning, but in fact, he also coveted Ning Xianglou or the small study room of the Hou family that was said to have the 'secret of heaven and earth'. And now that a family has come to life, His Majesty is the first to ...... sold his son, and let him carry the black pot for everything, but the prince was so happy, so busy, and so natural, isn't this the most ridiculous thing? Even the dignified Nanming lord wants to throw away the hot potato, you little kid still hold it tightly in your hand as a baby?

Fu Pingbo coughed heavily, and then said helplessly: "The old minister is also like the prince, and he is loyal to His Majesty, but ...... The old minister is really old, beyond his strength, even if he has the heart to serve the country, only pity Hua, now even if he goes to the front line, he is afraid that he can't, if he dies in the middle of the road, I am afraid that he will live up to the love of the prince and His Majesty. ”

The corners of the prince's eyes twitched, his expression became gloomy, and he said lightly: "If the old general dies in the middle of the road, this king will definitely bury the old general." ”

The meaning is obvious, if he doesn't go, the prince will definitely punish him.

Fu Pingbo couldn't hear it, so he had to lie down and arch his hand: "Then the old minister will serve the prince again." ”

I knew I couldn't hide, so I had to bite the bullet.

……

Seven days passed, from leaving the city to the front of this Puyang City, it took seven days, killing more than 100,000 people, and the 800,000 army was not damaged at all, and the only few who were injured were unlucky to be smoked when they set fire.

In front of the city gate, the defenders have already understood the route and time of the march of the Heavenly Sin Army, and naturally they have made preparations early, just three days ago, Puyang Taishou received the news from Dawan City, saying that General Fu Pingbo Fu has ordered troops on the road and wants to come here for reinforcements, which can make Puyang Taishou this fat man of more than 200 catties happy, and he is standing on top of the city early this morning, showing off his might, and there is no pressure at all to look at the 800,000 army that is all over the mountains below.

"A dog thief! You betrayed the lord for glory, and now you dare to lead the Northern Qi soldiers to invade my Nanming land, hum! I advise you to leave quickly, the reinforcements will arrive soon, and when your 800,000 soldiers and armor are in the landscape, it will be up to you to see how you behave yourself! ”

As soon as Han Pingju approached the city wall with more than 10,000 people to test the situation of the opponent's bow and crossbow, he heard the fat man on the head of the city shouting.

He was a little confused, a family marquis? Who is a family marquis? Nanming is a family marquis, he knows, the big boss behind the famous Ning Xiang Building, and some people even say that he is the most profitable and ruthless person in recent years, and the barrels of fine wine are ...... Goodong, Han Pingju couldn't help but swallow his saliva, it was really a thing to grab money.

Seeing the other party shouting, but not seeing the salvo of the bow and crossbow, Han Pingju also felt bored, so he patted his horse and returned to the large array with 10,000 Dunjia soldiers, and informed the other party of all the shouts.

Heavenly Sin sneered, and then waved his hand: "Start work!" ”

In just seven days on the way, all the craftsmen brought out from the four cities and those soldiers with greater strength were studying the drawings drawn by those heavenly sins, and the structure of the objects on them was extremely simple, but they were too big.

A platform in the middle needs to be stacked with boulders, fixed with horizontal logs, and the total length is three zhang away.

There is a live buckle mechanism, two cupola wooden frames, and the left and right ropes are fixed with wooden piles, which are seven or eight battles high! At the very top, there is a bracket that can sit on a wooden pole with hundreds of pieces of wood tied to each other, and it is also 145 zhang long.

One end is tied to a black boulder, while the other end is just a basket-shaped container.

The stone is heavy and the basket is light, after the stone is done, one side of the stone hangs on the ground, and the other side is tied with a rope, which needs dozens of people to pull together to pull the basket down and fix the rope.

For something so huge and simple, it would take a total of twelve crosses, and the sin of heaven only gave them three days.
