Guan Kuo and Tie Shan Wu had not experienced the battle on the banks of the Yangtze River, so they naturally didn't know the power of the Thousand Crow Crossbow on the city, but most of the other people in the Northern Tang Dynasty showed a solemn look, although there was not much left of the Thousand Crow Crossbow Army, but no one would joke with their own lives, this army really gave them a psychological shadow.

The wide shield was raised in front of the sword, and many Northern Tang soldiers from different units gathered together, set up a defensive array, and began to slowly move forward.

"Click-"

"Click-"

"Click-"

……

The sound of the Thousand Crow's crossbow springs began to stir people's hearts, and the expressionless Thousand Crow crossbow army on the city pointed down at them and began to launch a terrifying offensive.

Although there are only a few hundred thousand crow crossbow army, but the power of the thousand crow crossbow is still terrifying, human power is limited, the crossbow arrow of the thousand crow crossbow can not only penetrate most of the shield, but also use huge force to hit it, many Northern Tang soldiers because of the huge force to let the shield fall off, so that the crossbow arrow behind is shot to death.

In the first wave of shooting, more than 100 people died in the Northern Tang Dynasty, and the Northern Tang Divine Crossbow, which was still able to gather more than 2,000 combat strength, still did not reach the range.

In this battle, the power of the Northern Tang Dynasty Divine Crossbow was greatly weakened, and in the face of the Thousand Crow Crossbow, not only was the range insufficient, because one was condescending, and the other was headwind.

Under the shield, Guan Kuo dodged several times, with his own strength, several crossbows that penetrated the shield but were still dodged by him, if it weren't for the superior martial arts, I am afraid that even a well-trained soldier would be helpless in the face of the crossbow arrows that penetrated the shield, and he could only resign himself to fate and rely on luck.

The same is true for Iron Mountain Nothing.

The people around him fell one after another, and then people with higher military literacy approached to maintain the array, screaming in all directions, the death continued, and the wounded were even more painful.

In addition to the Thousand Crow Crossbow Army, other archers of Southern Wu were also shooting wildly, there were more than 2,000 people, and it seemed that they were subordinate to the palace guards, and these soldiers who had been waiting for many days could finally show their last prestige in the imperial city.

Compared with the outer city of Jinling, the imperial city does not set up too complicated, infinitely powerful city defense facilities, can rely on the only thing that can be relied on, the combat effectiveness of the army itself, after all, generally speaking, who would have thought that Jinling would be breached, and the enemy army would attack under the imperial city? As for the palace coup, it did not gather much military force.

Guan Kuo didn't know how much the Northern Tang army had paid, he could only hear the sharp sound of arrows and arrows whistling overhead, stimulating his eardrums, and he saw through the gap between shields that his position was close to the foot of the imperial city.

The siege engines in front had already bombarded the vermilion gates, and it was clear by the sound that those people were not professional, and most of the men who had been operating the siege engines had been shot dead on the way over, and they took turns pushing on the top one by one, until they reached the foot of the city walls, and they all became another force.

At this moment, the bow and arrow and the thousand crow's crossbow did not have much effect, so countless boulders "crackled" and fell from above, bringing even more terrible screams.

Guan Kuo and Tie Shan Wu are both people who have participated in the Northern Xinjiang War, and they have also encountered countless battles later, but today's tragic scene still makes them feel shocked, and the strength that broke out in the decisive battle of Southern Wu is far from being abrupt and comparable.

I don't know how long it has been, but I feel that the people around me have fallen one after another, and the people who have come up have changed batch after batch, and the sound of the city gate being breached finally came from the front, followed by the excited Northern Tang official words:

"Rush in, and we're on the verge of victory!"

But soon the voice with that emotion froze.

Because when the city gate was breached, they did not immediately encounter a fierce attack, and in the distant imperial city, there was a large silent forbidden army under the pressure of black.

They were all expressionless, no anger, no panic, nothing.

The five thousand forbidden troops in the Southern Wu Imperial Palace are all here, this is the ultimate power.

……

……

Ji Ruhai had already put on a dragon robe, dressed in bright yellow, so he invisibly brought a certain majesty.

Now, he is finally the well-deserved Emperor His Majesty of Southern Wu.

He sat on the dragon chair and looked down, as if looking down at his last, ruined country.

He placed his hands on the handles on either side of the dragon chair, clenching and clenching.

"Hold it tight," he said to himself in his heart, "don't let go, even if you die, you have to die on the dragon chair, even if Li Zenan comes over and pulls you down, don't let go!" ”

Below, there are those old ministers who witnessed his accession to the throne, they are old, their legs and feet are not good, and the kneeling just now seems to have exhausted their vitality, and at this moment they are sitting directly on the ground unsightly, panting.

"Actually, there's no need for you to accompany me like this," Ji Ruhai looked at them, his eyes full of pity, "I don't think Li Zenan is interested in killing you, he will give you a peaceful old age." ”

"Your Majesty," an old minister shook his head and said, "We are all reborn because of Da Wu, if Da Wu dies, then our hearts will also die, what is the point of everything?" ”

Ji Ruhai was silent for a while and said, "I respect your decision. ”

Then, as if he had let go of everything, he tried to talk to these old ministers with whom he was not very familiar.

"Actually, I'm going to sit on it for a few days first, and then sit on the wind platform when I have the opportunity later."

When he said this, a smile appeared on his face, probably thinking of his father.

Linfeng Terrace is the tallest building in the Imperial Palace, even higher than the city wall of the Imperial City, at that time, the first emperor stood on the Linfeng Terrace, always looking into the distance, it seems that the whole world has an unobstructed view, that kind of charm, make people sigh.

I still remember the scene when eight wrestlers carried the heavy dragon chair like a mountain, starting from this position, all the way down the steps, out of the temple gate, and up to the wind platform, but time has passed, and it is now.

Even if he dies, he will die on the wind platform.

So in fact, for Ji Ruhai, it is a very sacred place, a place that represents the supreme aura of a generation of male lords, he is in awe and a little close.

"Then why didn't Your Majesty come and see it again? It's also time to take a look. An old minister said.

Ji Ruhai shook his head with a smile and patted the handle of the dragon chair.

"No, actually, it's pretty good here."
