Chapter 1083: Tokyo Change (6)

At this time, the rebel leader was killed, the leader was captured, his heart was broken, and his morale was extremely low. Even if they were still several times more powerful than the cavalry led by Sun Tu in terms of strength, they were still crushed at the first touch of the enemy in the face of the surging enemy, and they couldn't even do a decent defense, so they were killed and knocked down, and trampled under the iron hooves of the horses.

For a while, the screams came one after another, and more soldiers threw away the weapons in their hands, and roared angrily from the mouth of the rushing cavalry: "Abandon the weapon and don't kill it!" And obediently knelt on the ground, and didn't even dare to raise his head.

A small number of soldiers who tried to resist also rushed to Sun Tu's front, and the spears shook and fell in a pool of blood, and on the way he rushed forward, let alone blocked, he didn't even find the enemy, so that he passed through the defense line of thousands of heavily armored foot soldiers like no one, and killed Li Gang and others.

As Sun Tu slammed the horse, the horse's front hooves were raised high, and after a long neigh, it fell to the ground again, just as the horse's hooves fell to the ground and did not rise in front of Li Gang's head, which frightened many of the soldiers guarding him on the side to the side, but Li Gang did not see the slightest surprise at this time, just lying on the ground, raising his eyes to look down at Sun Tu who was looking down on his head, his eyes were gloomy, if there was substance.

The two only looked at each other for a moment, and Sun Tu bent down and reached out and pulled Li Gang up from the ground, and then stared at him and said, "Why do you want to attack me?" In the past two years, I have always respected you as the ruler of the dynasty, and my status and prestige have been given enough......"

Staring at Sun Tu's eyes that were beating like fire when he spoke, Li Gang only said five words indifferently: "Han and thief are not separate!" ”

This made Sun Tu's brow lock again, this sentence came from the Three Kingdoms, and it was the words of those courtiers loyal to the Han family when they generously went to their deaths in the face of Cao Cao's coercion. Now, it has actually been used by Li Gang on himself, that is, he compared Sun Tu to Cao Cao and his ilk, who left infamy through the ages, and also branded their rebellion as loyal ministers and ministers of the country in disguise.

But soon, Sun Tu showed a disdainful smile on his face again: "Just because of such a ridiculous reason? ”

"Ridiculous? The way of kings and ministers has been clear since ancient times, what do you do as a courtier is not an arrogance that should be killed? Maybe what we are doing is ridiculous in your opinion, but in the eyes of the people of the world, on top of history, others will give us a fair evaluation. Even if we lose today, we have a clear conscience. Li Gang completely ignored the cavalry that was constantly surrounding him, as well as the bloody spear in Sun Tu's hand, and looked at Sun Tu fearlessly, telling his righteousness in an impassioned tone.

"Bold! Arrogant! The soldiers who had gathered around him saw that he was still talking so loudly at this moment, and they all changed color and roared, and some of them even drew their swords to teach this hateful enemy a good lesson.

But he was stopped by Sun Tu's look, he was calmer than any of his subordinates, and there was even a sneering sneer on his face: "A good man and a thief are not separated, and a good loyal minister." You think you're doing the right thing, but in my opinion, it's not worth refuting at all. I only ask you, is it more important to live in this world, or is it the faint king in the palace and the ethereal name that are more important? "If you think the latter is heavier, it means that you Li Gang is just a fool who sells his reputation. If on the contrary, in the past two years, under my rule, now the Great Song Dynasty is thriving, the hundred years of accumulation of disadvantages have been constantly modified, the people are rich, the national strength is increasing, what you are doing today is to go against the sky, who is the national thief, who will be spurned by the people of the world, and will be ridiculed by the history books a hundred years later, it will be clear at a glance! ”

After saying a few words, Li Gang's face suddenly changed, and he couldn't even say anything to refute. Not only him, but also the other courtiers also had different colors on their faces at this time, obviously being hit by the key point in their hearts.

Seeing this, Sun Tu said loudly: "You and the so-called serving the country and the king are just wishful thinking, or only from your own interests. What you want is just the high status of civil officials at the beginning, and as for what the court is like and what the world is like, it is not in your consideration. Actually, it's nothing, who isn't selfish? But the last thing you should do is to make trouble for your own selfish interests, but you have to find a high-sounding reason for yourself, which is really ridiculous! ”

As these words spread around, coupled with the speechless appearance of Li Gang and others, the psychology of the surrounding rebels was even more impacted, and even the last trace of courage to resist disappeared. For a moment, everyone put down their weapons and knelt down in surrender. Thousands of elite heavy armor soldiers, all of them were taken.

Although the casualties of this cavalry team under Sun Tu are not small, at least nearly half of the horses can sit on horseback, and there is a terrifying momentum between them, suppressing the whole audience, making people dare not act rashly.

After a period of silence, accompanied by bursts of killing and rumbling sounds outside, Li Gang, who was already dead-faced, suddenly laughed again: "Sun Tu, do you think you really won?" Do you think that by setting up a rebellion around me, you can turn the tide in one fell swoop and achieve the final victory? You underestimate me Li Gang too much, and there are other officials who are loyal to the Great Song Dynasty. Even though we did lose the battle here, the rest of Tokyo has already fallen into our hands at this time. When the time comes, as long as they join forces to enter the imperial city, you will still have only one way to die! ”

As he spoke, he laughed out loud, laughing a little maniacly, laughing so much that tears flowed from his eyes. It seems that only in this way can the undue fear and regret in my heart be suppressed.

And Sun Tu stared at him quietly, until he finished speaking, then he sighed and said, "Until now, you still refuse to admit that you have completely failed this time?" In addition to the ambush soldiers here in the imperial city, you also let Song Jiang seize the power of the forbidden army outside the city, and even sent tens of thousands of horses to seize the main yamen and treasury in the inner and outer cities. Now there is a sound of killing, which is the movement of your people attacking the arsenal and the firearms warehouse. But have you thought about it, since I already knew all about your actions and laid out all kinds of arrangements for the future, how could I give you such an opportunity to seize control of Tokyo City, and even disrupt my Tokyo? ”

These few words completely shattered Li Gang's last bit of fantasy, making his originally crazy smile dissipate in an instant, and the whole person was even more like gold paper, trembling, and he couldn't say a word. Sun Tu's words continued: "Of course, you may still question me that these words are just a bluff, but what I want to say is, don't you think it's strange, since I have already found out about your conspiracy, why did you dare to enter the imperial city today with only a few hundred guards?"

"This is not only because I have faith in myself that I can defeat you all with just this amount of force, but also because I will place more troops in the key points of Tokyo City and take down all the rebels. Therefore, at this moment, whether it is the sound of killing or the explosion outside, it is all my subordinates who are fighting back, and it will not be long before the war will end, and your conspiracy will be completely defeated! ”

It was only at this time that Li Gang's whole body trembled violently like an electric shock, staring at Sun Tu with his back and shouting, "Impossible! I have made many arrangements this time, and with Song Jiang by my side, it is impossible for you to know everything in the morning and make arrangements. You are talking big to deceive me, you just want to destroy our confidence, even if we are defeated here in the Imperial City, but we will only win in the end! ”

Sun Tu was staring at Li Gang with pity at the moment, who had obviously fallen into madness and self-deception, knowing that he just couldn't accept such a defeat and was still making the last struggle. He didn't argue with it anymore, just smiled and said, "Soon, the result you want to know will appear." Do you know why there is a saying that Xiucai rebels for three years? It's because you sometimes take things too seriously, and you don't have enough power to do all of this. ”

As soon as the words fell, a rumbling sound sounded on the edge of the walls of the imperial city. With this sudden explosion, the city wall, which was originally quite luxurious, but not too strong, changed. At first, a trace of cracks were revealed, then the cracks continued to expand, the gravel and sand continued to fall, and finally in a palpitating uproar, a large section of the city wall collapsed and collapsed, causing a passage to appear between the imperial city and the inner city again.

After seeing this scene, Li Gang's body finally softened and collapsed. Even if he didn't want to believe Sun Tu's statement, he could only choose to accept it in the face of the facts - if Song Jiang brought troops over to support, he would never dare to destroy the outer wall of the imperial city so unscrupulously. Only Sun Tu's subordinates have such courage. That means that everything Sun Tu just did is true, and his men and horses finally came to support after controlling the situation.

Even if he already knew about this failure, when the facts were really in front of him, Li Gang still felt a great blow, making it difficult for the old man to stand up again, and he fell down completely.

And when Sun Tu saw the city wall collapse, his eyes showed a touch of joy. It's not that I'm glad at the arrival of reinforcements, everything is under my control, and there are no surprises. What really made Sun Tu happy was the power of the gunpowder used this time. actually blew up the walls of the imperial city in just one stroke, which shows that in the past two years, with Lin Lingsu's efforts, the power of his own gunpowder has made great progress. In this way, if it is used on the battlefield, it can create greater lethality.

The overall situation is set, and Sun Tu's eyes have been looked at the farther future!
