Chapter 82: Pretending to be a prince
Outside the Wu Mansion. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although these 500 soldiers are all cavalry, but fortunately, Gu is a veteran of a hundred battles tempered by the Xiongwu Army, and his combat power is several times stronger than that of the Shangzhou County soldiers.
Moreover, the square road is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, after a few rounds of attacks, the three thousand county soldiers can not advance a bit, and the four square roads are guarded by these five hundred elite cavalry.
"Quickly adjust ten wooden crossbows, I don't believe that these five hundred cavalry can stop the power of my big crossbow!" A county soldier shouted loudly.
In less than half a pillar of incense, ten huge wooden crossbows appeared in front of the soldiers defending the four lanes.
All the soldiers were shocked when they saw this.
The wooden crossbow is to take the incomparably hard Coptis Sangzhe as the arm, with the cow tendon as the string, the bow is one zhang and two feet long, the diameter is up to seven inches, and the winch is used to stretch the string when fired, and the crossbow arrows can reach nearly ten feet, and the range is as long as 700 steps, which is almost comparable to the siege vehicle crossbow.
It is conceivable that the round shields mounted by the cavalry alone could not resist the attack of such crossbow arrows, and the moment the wooden crossbow appeared, death instantly enveloped the heads of these five hundred soldiers.
"Wind!"
The sound is long, and its majesty is like a mountain.
The ten-foot giant arrow, pointed by the arrow, actually refers to the body of the robe.
"Formation!"
The sound of Ganyun is like a rainbow.
In the alley of hundreds of zhangs, the flesh and body are guarded, but the guards are hot-blooded and loyal souls.
"Shoot!"
The sound of arrows rang out, the sound was like thunder, and there was no half of what I thought about in my heart.
"Charge!"
The armor is sonorous, there is no complaint in death, and all the eyes are red.
Under the arrow, nearly ten living lives disappeared from this world forever in an instant, and the hot blood slowly spread into the distance in the land of Shangzhou, like a flower that was blooming, dazzling and heartbreaking.
"Regroup! Charge! ”
The best way to deal with the strong bow and crossbow is not to resist and dodge, but to charge forward, these veterans who have survived a hundred battles know this, and before the team can give the order, they re-formed the formation with jaw-dropping speed, and then raised their horizontal swords and rushed away.
Before the giant arrow of the county soldiers was wound twice, the elite knights had already rushed to the front, and under the blade of a hundred battles, the soldiers of Shangzhou were vulnerable.
The county soldiers resisted to the death, the elite cavalry fought hard, no matter which side had no way to retreat, the advance was still alive, and the retreat was death!
"Report! The enemy is fierce, and the wooden crossbow has been destroyed, and it is difficult for our army to resist! ”
Facing the report of the soldiers, Guo Wei's face couldn't help twitching a few times, even though he knew that these guards were all from the Xiongwu Army, but he didn't expect it to be so fierce, his three thousand soldiers were scattered by a mere five hundred horseless cavalry, and they couldn't even protect a few wooden crossbows.
......
Inside the Kure Mansion.
Wu Zhuo Obstacle Knife in hand, since the county soldiers had launched an attack, and the five hundred elite horsemen outside the door were too busy to take care of themselves, then Li Zhen had no use value for him.
"Wu Yuanjun is really going to kill me now? It seems that the envoy was hurt a lot by Bai Minzhong, so I'm afraid I don't know my identity until now! ”
Li Zhen didn't look at the aggressive Wu Zhuo when he said this, but knew that he was fiddling with the tea cup in his hand.
"You? No matter what your identity is, as long as you die today, this envoy has his own excuse to deal with His Majesty! Wu Zhuo sneered.
"Yes, if I am the son of Li Fu Yin, I will kill the king, and Your Majesty will not embarrass you, the gold merchant defense envoy, because of a suspect who murdered the five-grade officials of the imperial court, but what if you kill the prince?!" Li Zhen slowly raised his head and looked at Wu Zhuo with a bright smile.
Wu Zhuo's brows frowned slightly when he heard this, although he was still holding the barrier knife in his hand, his expression was obviously a little hesitant.
"The Prince? Hahaha! I'm afraid I want to delay time again, but I can't say that in the end, the envoy will have a fake prince's hat to be buckled on your head! Wu Zhuo suddenly laughed.
Li Zhen smiled indifferently when he heard this, then got up and moved his muscles and bones slightly, and at the same time said slowly: "Hehe, I know that Bai Minzhong didn't tell the envoy about this matter, otherwise people with a slightly normal mind would not have done such a rebellious thing!" ”
"Don't talk nonsense anymore, today you are a dead person, do you think this envoy will believe your ridiculous words?" Wu Zhuo shouted angrily.
"Hehe, since that's the case, then you might as well think about it, what crime did I commit? The murder of the five-grade officials of the imperial court, according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, is the unrighteous crime of the ten heinous crimes, how to deal with it, I think the king should know better than me! Li Zhen said slowly, looking calm and unafraid.
"These are the ones who know about it!"
"It's good to know, then you might as well think about it again, although I am the son of Yin of Jiangling Mansion, I was not beheaded for such a serious crime, but handed over to the three divisions of the imperial court for trial! Can you know the reason for this? ”
"You also said just now, my father is the Yin of Jiangling Mansion, and the officials of Jiangling Mansion naturally don't dare to make decisions at will, I'm afraid that Li Wenrao also has a lot to do with you!" Wu Zhuo sneered.
"Even so, then if you think about it again, why don't the three envoys of the imperial court dare to make decisions on their own? Even His Majesty personally issued an order to ask the three divisions to be tried for such a case with conclusive evidence, and the person who came to Gangneung Mansion to deliver the decree that day made Jun know who it was? Li Zhen had a smile on his face from beginning to end.
"Who?" Wu Zhuo asked.
"Zhou Gui! Presumably, the envoy doesn't recognize this Zhou rule, it doesn't matter who he is, but what matters is his identity, the head of the inner service province, and the righteous son of the inner service superintendent Wang Guichang! Speaking of which, I think you should be able to think of something! ”
Wu Zhuo's face froze when he heard this, and at the same time, the obstacle knife that was originally held slowly relaxed.
Seeing that Wu Zhuo didn't speak, Li Zhen then said: "Originally, this kind of case should have been passed on by the Criminal Department, but His Majesty asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pass on the decree, and its intention is already very clear. ”
"If, if you are really the prince, why has the envoy never heard anyone talk about it?" Wu Zhuo finally hesitated.
"I don't know the reason, but Wu Zhuo has forgotten my name!" Seeing that Wu Zhuo was a little relaxed, Li Zhen was a little sure that Wu Zhuo might have the last straw missing at this moment.
"Li Zhen? What, what does this mean? Wu Zhuo said in surprise.
"Then can you know the names of the five kings, King Yun, King Yong, King Ya, King Kui, and King Qing?" Li Zhen then asked again.
"Yun Wang Li Wen, Yongwang Li Mi, Yawang Li Jing, Kui Wang Li Zi, Qing Wang Li Yi......" Speaking of this, Wu Zhuo's face suddenly changed greatly, because he discovered the law in it, and the names of these five kings all have the word water in them.
"Hehe, I think the king has discovered the law of this, according to the royal family and ancestral system, His Majesty's heirs must bring water. Maybe any one of these things alone is not enough to say anything, but the mixing of these things is enough to say something! ”
