064 Siege
Chongzhen waved his hand, "Listen to the newspaper!"
After saying that, he sat down in his own position and came out in a posture of sitting upright.
Cheng Qingfeng sneered and got up, he automatically stood behind Chongzhen, standing side by side with the real Tian Ergeng.
Xiucai, who was reading the newspaper, bowed slightly to Chongzhen, and then picked up the newspaper and began today's reading.
The newspaper reading room, which was still noisy just now, instantly fell silent, and everyone listened carefully with their ears open.
Seems like you're missing something?
Xiucai, who was reading the newspaper, picked up the startling wood and slapped it vigorously, just like a storyteller.
"It is said that the day before yesterday, His Majesty the Emperor thanked the people for their difficult lives, and specially gave the poor, sick, old and weak in Beijing two thick mattresses, and the people were grateful to Dai De and shouted the Holy Son of Heaven."
"Holy Son of Heaven!"
"Holy Son of Heaven!"
"Holy Son of Heaven!"
Everyone followed Xiucai and roared loudly, almost knocking Chongzhen to the ground.
He leaned back in his chair a little depressed.
To tell you the truth, all he did was to avoid hanging a crooked neck tree, he really didn't want to have a cult of personality!
Then Xiucai talked about Chongzhen's stop smoking flowers and banning extravagance, and everyone who listened to it applauded.
The newspaper finished.
It's time to squirt.
Although Chongzhen, the fake Tian Daren, was present, the angry youth still sprayed spittle and flew straight away.
Probably they felt that this Tian Daren was their own person, and there was no need to avoid it.
Although the public is angry and wonderful, Chongzhen is not interested, what trolls have he not seen in the forum for a long time?
Compared with the top keyboard warriors in modern society, how gentle and cute these original sprays of the Ming Dynasty were.
Chongzhen simply closed his eyes, and the live broadcast system turned on.
Zhao Shujiao decided to attack the city.
He came in a hurry this time and did not prepare the siege equipment, and the high walls of Zunhua City were strong, and it was absolutely impossible to rely on the cavalry in his hands to attack it.
Even the Zunhua City Gate is made of thousands of years of extremely hard wood, and it is also covered with a layer of iron sheet, which is the most fireproof.
There are large mountains and forests near Zunhua City, and there are many giant trees of thousands of years in the forest.
Zhao led the soldiers to cut down huge trees, built a few more pulleys, and a few simple rams were finally completed.
The siege begins.
Zhao led his troops to attack from the north.
The advantage of attacking in this direction is that the north wind is blowing on this day, and the enemy's strong crossbow bows and arrows cannot play 10% of the range.
Zhao Shujiao brandished the Daming sword and howled, "Soldiers, for Your Majesty, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, for the sake of hundreds of millions of people, rush!" ”
Rush Rush!
The soldiers didn't know anything high, they only knew that the general had orders.
Kill one enemy and reward one silver.
Kill ten enemies and reward ten silver.
Kill 100 enemies and report to the imperial court.
There must be brave men under the so-called heavy reward, these soldiers have lived a hard life of not having enough food and not wearing warm clothes for a long time, and now they have a lot of silver to kill the enemy, so they are naturally extremely desperate.
In addition, the enemy is cowering in Zunhua City, and his fighting spirit is completely lost, so he is simply giving them silver!
At that moment, these small soldiers pushed the ram in groups of dozens and rushed towards the city gate.
Boom boom boom~
There was a loud crash, and the gates were crumbling, as if they would be slammed open with another blow?
The defenders of the city were naturally unwilling to be captured easily, they pushed boulders and clods of earth off the city, and even poured gold juice on the Ming army besieging the city.
Boulders and clods of dirt are bearable.
The gold juice is very disgusting, don't think that the gold juice is some kind of gold-dissolved juice, in fact, it is boiled hot dung water.
Through the live broadcast screen, Chongzhen seemed to be able to smell the thick stench, and he almost vomited.
But the Ming army besieging the city is not afraid, let alone a little dung, not even a knife.
For the sake of silver, rush rush!
The fortified city of Zunhua was finally breached.
The wolf-like Ming army rushed into the city, the streets were full of blood, many innocent people were killed, and most of the living hid in the ruins of the city shivering.
When the Ming army attacked, they didn't recognize it as their own army for a while?
Naturally, the soldiers were killed, but the high-ranking generals such as Zilharang and Yuetuo had already fled.
……
Chongzhen slowly opened his eyes.
He sighed, although many generals in Liaodong were shameless, the soldiers in Liaodong were still very pitiful.
Chongzhen secretly vowed that in the future, he must rectify the border passes, so that every soldier can guard the border with peace of mind and have no worries about food and clothing.
"Benefactor."
A teenage boy jumped up and ran to Chongzhen's side, he pointed at Chongzhen and said, "I know who you are, you are the benefactor who ate my chicken." ”
Ate his chicken?
I'm not a weasel.
Chongzhen patted the little boy's head angrily and funny, and asked, "Whose child are you?" When did my uncle eat your chicken?"
The little boy tilted his head and stared at Chongzhen for a while, "I can't be mistaken, it's that you ate my chicken, grandpa said that you are a benefactor, and my name is Li Chengzhi." ”
Chongzhen looked at the little child carefully.
He finally remembered, this is not the little grandson of Li Laohan's family? It's only been a few days that I've actually gained a lot of weight, no wonder I didn't recognize it at a glance!
Chongzhen smiled, "Is it okay for that uncle to accompany you with a chicken?" ”
Li Chengzhi shook his head, and said in a milky voice, "Grandpa said that you are a benefactor, and the chicken has to be given to the benefactor, but ...... What do you mean by a benefactor?"
"Go, go, go."
A few angry youths drove the child outside, as if they were afraid that the child would disturb 'Tian Qingtian'.
The frightened Li Chengzhi burst into tears.
Chongzhen hurriedly stopped them and said to Li Chengzhi kindly, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Chengzhi, what about your grandfather?" And what about your mom and dad? ”
Li Chengzhi sobbed for a long time before finally answering, "Grandpa and Mom and Dad are at home, and I came alone." ”
Yes?
How could this kid come all this way alone to listen to the newspaper? In modern society, it is dangerous for children to ride alone in the car.
Aren't the children of ancient times afraid of human traffickers?
After thinking for a while, Chongzhen also understood.
In ancient times, because communication was not developed, even if children were abducted by human traffickers, they generally did not spread far and did not cause widespread panic.
And it is true that the ancients were more defenseless than the modern people.
Chongzhen took a piece of candy and handed it to the child, and asked, "Why are you here alone?" Not afraid of bad guys? ”
The child hurriedly took the candy and put it in his mouth, and replied vaguely, "Grandpa said that our family just suffered a loss of no culture, and grandpa asked me to come over every day to listen to the newspaper and learn a little culture." ”
"You can't learn much by listening to newspapers, if you want, I'll help you contact an academy?" Chongzhen's voice.
"Don't!"
The little boy shook his head vigorously, "I don't want to learn to read and write, I want to learn martial arts, I want to be a brocade guard, I want to defend His Majesty the Emperor and prevent bad people from bullying him." ”
