The palace was hit by an artillery piece.

Location, Qianyuan Palace

This golden hall, which has stood in the capital for thousands of years and symbolizes the supreme imperial power, and the Qianyuan Palace, which is located at the head of the three major halls, the Qianyuan Palace, the Qianyang Palace, and the Qianji Palace, were bombed into ruins in an earth-shattering thunderstorm

The glass shattered, and the gold and jade splashed.

After the collapse, the smoke of gunpowder evaporates.

Then, the flames rose into the sky

Six shocks

The capital shook

Tang Ji, the general of the Dragon Guard, received a message from Wang Yan and was about to go to Chang'an Avenue to supervise the formation, but suddenly there was a sudden change, and he was suddenly frightened, and his soul flew out of the sky, shouting "The emperor rescues" and turned around and rushed towards the palace.

Countless dragon guards followed.

After only running a few steps, he remembered his commander's duties again, hurriedly stopped his steps, turned around and ordered a general, "Quickly order people to go to Chang'an Avenue to command Ge, be sure to hold the king, whether you live or die"

The man clenched his fists and said, "Yes, General," and hurriedly turned around to make arrangements.

Tang Ji also instructed another general, "You quickly bring people to investigate, where this artillery came from, be sure to find out and order Jia Yuan, the general of the Tiger Guard, to dispatch all the Tiger Guards and search carefully."

The general said, "The last general obeys"

Pulled a dozen people, and also rushed away.

Tang Ji ordered "General Chuan Ben's order to let Deputy General Wei Chi and Deputy General Pang come to the rescue and dispatch all the dragon guards"

The crowd was amazed and went their separate ways.

Tang Ji continued to run wildly, while thinking angrily, "Liang Xinming really has a rebellion, and Zhang Boyuan has also a rebellion, otherwise the artillery is such a behemoth, if it is not already arranged, how can it be transported into the capital?"

Speaking of Chang'an Avenue, all the dragon guards in ambush, under the leadership of the commander Ge Fei, poured out of the nest and swept towards the palace like a wave of rage. The person who ran at the front was still a stone's throw away, and he shot out all kinds of weapons such as arrows, rockets, and long and short spears, and attacked the gate of the palace; More people rushed with thunderbolts of fire, only to run closer before throwing them and bombing the palace.

From a high place, Chang'an Avenue is like a sleeping dragon, suddenly woken up, turned over and roared towards the palace, along the way, the dragon's mouth continued to spew out all kinds of sharp weapons, straight to the gate of the palace, the momentum is huge

Wang Yan had already ridden his horse and rushed to the gate, and immediately jumped up on the horse, holding two short spears in his left and right hands, and rushed straight to the servant and Yi'an on the steps. This is the latest weapon developed in the army, which is lighter, safer, and faster than the previous muskets, especially capable of firing five bullets in bursts. This is what Zhao Ziyi secretly equipped them. As soon as Wang Yan was about to buckle the motive, the servant of the family pulled one by one, blocked in front of him, and at the same time raised his gun at Wang Yan, and was about to shoot.

His spear was the same as Wang's

Wang Jun was also pulled out by another servant, with his hands cut behind his back, and was pushed to the front, and the servant hid behind him. Wang Jun was overjoyed when he saw Wang Yan, and then shouted in frustration, "Brother go away"

Wang Yan and his younger brother have not seen each other for seven years, and it is easy to reunite, but it is a life-threatening moment, and his younger brother is held hostage, which makes him murderous.

The other servants were very excited to see him fall into the net, and they waited for so many days, isn't it just waiting for this master to earn him into the door, so that he no longer has to be restrained, afraid of this and that, and immediately copied the Wang family, and if there is resistance, he will be killed on the spot, so they all raise their guns and swords with murderous faces.

In their opinion, Wang Yan is just a scholar, even if he practices three punches and two kicks, he can still compete with them as masters in the army

However, there was a shout of killing in the palace.

The voice came to the front door.

The first was the servant who escorted Wang Jun, who felt a pain in his chest, his body stiffened, looked down at the tip of the sword on his chest, and wanted to turn his head in disbelief; Before he could turn around, the sword had already been drawn back, bringing out a rain of blood.

Wang Jun was dragged to his side, it was an old servant, as if he had come out of the ground, and he assassinated two domestic servants in a row, and the situation on the steps reversed.

Immediately afterwards, the servant who killed Yi'an was raising his gun and aiming at Wang Yan, and was pulling the motive, when he heard the sound of "bang" and "bang", and he himself was shot twice in the chest; As soon as he let go of his hand, the gun was knocked down by Wang Yan. He also stared at Wang Yan in disbelief, where did he get the gun, and it was so good

He misunderstood, it wasn't Wang Yan who shot it.

Those two shots were also fired from behind

Wang Yan dared to break through the gate alone, because there was someone in the palace to answer him.

In the blink of an eye, the dragon guards disguised as servants of the Wang family at the door were all eliminated. Wang Yan heard the shouts of killing on the street, so he picked up Yi'an and shouted to the old servant, "Go in" The old servant dragged Wang Jun into the door and closed the door again.

There was a fierce battle inside the door.

The two sides of the fierce battle were the dragon guards wearing silver and gray military uniforms and silver armor, and a group of merchants in various costumes with brocade clothes, peddlers and pawns and farmers in kudzu cloth short clothes, servants and men in green clothes and small hats, etc., but judging from their skills, it was obvious that they were a group of well-trained sergeants, more fierce and more cooperative than the dragon guards.

Where did this group of people come from?

rushed out of the east wing of the main courtyard

Just before, in the back house of Liu Ji's shop, which is two streets away from Chang'an Avenue, several men are surrounding a pile of big iron lumps in the middle of the courtyard, which is a simple cannon, the cold barrel is raised high, and the swarthy muzzle of the cannon is like a vicious monster, and it is opening its big mouth, facing the direction of the palace, ready to spit.

A man warned, "Don't mess with what Young Master Wang has adjusted, if you move, it will be crooked, and if you can't turn around, this cannon will be scrapped."

The warned gunner nervously said, "I know, I know"

His palms were sweating, and he let go of the cold wind and cold air, and then held on to the artillery. In order to relieve the tension, he tilted his head and asked a young man next to him, "Lao Tie, can you carry this cannon, and the barrel won't explode?"

Lao Tie suddenly stopped, glared and said, "Why can't you bear the calculations of Young Master Wang, saying that it will definitely work with three cannons." This is my ancestral craft. My ancestors also made divine weapons and sharp weapons. You look down on me."

The gunner hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I'll ask in vain." ”

No one knows what Lao Tie's ancestral craftsmanship is, but he himself is very appreciated by Wang Yan. His father and son opened a blacksmith shop in the north of the city. When Wang Yan built this secret passage, he dismantled the drawings of the iron mechanism accessories needed and asked people to take them to various blacksmith shops in the city to build them. At that time, Lao Tie was still a teenager, and the accessories he created were the most sophisticated. And he befriended him.

Before Wang Yan set off in Jiangnan, he passed the drawings of the cannon barrel to Liu Ji's shop, and let Lao Tie build it first. There is no need to elaborate on all kinds of twists and turns.

Lao Tie just got it out.

There were a dozen men squatting under the walls on both sides of the gate, listening vigilantly to the movement outside, occasionally turning their faces to look at the few people gathered around the artillery; There were also two people lying on the roof, one of whom was holding a telescope.

In the study room in the house, the bookcase was removed, and behind it was a secret room, in which more than a dozen men gathered, all staring at a tunnel in the center of the room leading directly to the east chamber of the palace. Two iron stakes were planted at the entrance, and ropes were tied to the stakes, and many small bells hung from the ropes. Suddenly, I heard a bell ringing. The man at the other end of the palace pulled the rope violently, and the bell hanging on the rope rang all the way.

Everyone was excited, "It was done"

A middle-aged man who looked like a leader ran out of the study and shouted "fire" into the courtyard

The man who controlled the cannon hurriedly opened fire; Another man also hurriedly lit two fireworks "Xiu", and the fireworks rose into the sky.

Then there was the earth-shattering sound of bombing.
