Chapter 64: Lucid Dream (1)
On the vast land, migratory birds flutter their wings and hover into the sky, and the green peaks in the distance loom in the clouds.
Migratory birds swooped down from the sky, gliding halfway to the distance, suddenly turning their bodies and soaring, their obsidian-clear pupils reflecting clusters of black shadows.
As far as the eye can see, it is a huge and majestic city, and the city walls stretch for dozens of miles as far as the eye can see, and there is no end in sight. Countless figures walked back and forth on the head of the city wall several feet high, and the golden imperial flag floated with the cool breeze from above, and wolf smoke rose everywhere, surging into the azure sky, bringing a gloomy breath.
On the city wall, the generals of the new army with swords at their waists commanded the forbidden army to carry swords, guns and arrows back and forth, bundles and clusters of weapons were neatly stacked at the various city gate towers, the sky was a little dark, dark clouds covered the sun, and it was about to rain a sign.
The imperial capital of Chang'an, which stands majestically for a hundred years, covers thousands of miles of pavilions and gatehouses, people's residences, neatly planned, scattered in various places, migratory birds fly over Chang'an City, overlooking the entire imperial city, as if it has been neatly divided by people with knives and axes, the streets are vertical and horizontal, the markets are safe, and they are spliced together by leveling squares.
The atmosphere at the castle tower naturally affected the people in the city, and the noisy bazaar was now deserted, and all the people were hiding in their own houses, and the streets were patrolled by horses with knives from time to time, and the sound of horses' hooves shaking the ground added to the tense atmosphere.
On the tower of the city gate, Ma Jinliang, the general of the new army in red robe and silver armor, stood with a pear blossom tassel gun in his hand, the armor pieces on the silver suit swayed, and the stitches sewn the entire armor like a silver mirror, even in this weather, it can still shine a snow-white light, standing in the midst of the ten thousand armies, every soldier can clearly see the location of their main general, so the original lack of confidence in the war spirit is much higher.
A drop of water snapped down on the silver armor, and the drop burst out on the smooth armor, and later, two or three drops......
Ma Jinliang raised his head slightly, fine raindrops fell on his face, flowing down the black stubble into his mouth, he smashed the corners of his mouth, wiped the wetness in the corners of his eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "This kind of weather...... The First Army shouldn't attack again, right? ”
He didn't know whether he was asking or stating with this sentence, and the general behind him looked at Ma Jinliang's tall figure, straight and strong, as if this poplar-like body contained infinite strength.
Through the dense rain curtain, Ma Jinliang raised his gaze to the distance of Chang'an City, looking at the hazy land from afar, the finger holding the gun trembled slightly, and in that direction, a huge black shadow gradually moved over.
……
"Pull me up the catapult, load it with stone bullets, and put it on the oil!"
Luan Zhenghao, the general of the First Army, raised the octagonal mixed copper stick in his hand and issued orders in an orderly manner.
With the issuance of the order, the red-clothed and wood-armored soldiers of the first army pulled the skeleton of the catapult vigorously, and the huge catapult fell, and then the human bones rolled up one by one stones, and the soldiers next to them quickly handed over a bucket of fire oil to pour on it, and the stones were poured with fire oil, like hot rice balls with sugar rings, boiling up and down white smoke.
The axles creaked and turned, and the four wheels of the catapult sank deep into the earth, and as the body sank, the thick hemp rope tied to the other end of the catapult was tightened by the soldiers, ready to go.
The ballista was also pushed up from the rear by another group of soldiers, and the crossbow arrows with the thickness of more than two meters long bamboo poles were carried up by the soldiers, one by one embedded in the ballista machine, the mud and sand on the ground twisted, the rain fell, and with the sound of a bowstring tightening, the nine crossbow arrows on each ballista were aimed high in the direction of the city wall.
In the position of the crowd at the front, Guan Tianyang, another pioneer general of the First Army, held a green dragon broadsword eight feet long, pointed to the towering Chang'an city from afar, and looked at the crowds on the city wall, he shouted in a deep voice: "Array!" ”
Boom Boom Boom –
The military flag quickly transmitted the news on the archway, and later, dozens of military formations arranged outside Chang'an City began to move in an orderly manner, the hazy light rain gradually became heavier, and the crackling raindrops hit the military flag and hit the armor, and there was a low roar.
The army formation moved in a row, and began to gather together, and the soldiers who stretched for more than ten miles formed a long line, and in front of the battle formation were ladders and siege vehicles standing indifferently, and under the black oppressive clouds, there was a more terrifying and dense arrangement of human heads.
Guan Tianyang held the Qinglong broadsword in his hand, and came to the front with his feet clamped the horse's belly, behind him, there was the sound of war horses neighing one after another, and the horseshoe palm was very anxious to step on the gradually wet ground, and the cavalry on horseback had already drawn their swords.
The vision swept over the square battle array outside the city wall that stretched for ten miles, and at the end of the army, on the handsome platform built by beams, Wang Kuang, the leader of the first army, narrowed his eyes slightly, clenched the Shang Fang sword in his hand, and later, his face was slightly distorted because of excitement.
Because, this is destined to go down in the history books, and he will be one of the most colorful.
In the next second, the war drums beat, and Wang Kuang slowly pulled out his sword-
……
Rumble Rumble –
Chang'an City, the new dynasty Taimiao, heavy rain like a note
Wang Hao was woken up by a violent tremor of the ground, opened his eyes, and there was a futon embroidered with gold wire under him, and then looked forward, there was rainwater accumulating into the puddle in front of the threshold of the temple, and the ripples of the puddle were shaking with the shaking of the ground.
"What is this place?"
He shook his head, stood up from the futon, spread out his palm, and held a wooden sign on it, engraved with a few small words: "Kill Wang Mang, you can live." ”
After a while, the wooden plaque in Wang Hao's palm gradually became dim, and finally drifted into ashes in front of him.
"Kill Wang Mang? Wang Mang is still alive? What about you? Wang Hao snorted.
He touched his whole body, there was nothing left, except for this clover and basketball shoes, he really had nothing left, even Qin Wufu and A Ning were not missing, and the temple was very deserted.
As soon as he raised his eyes, Wang Hao saw a plaque hanging in the hall in front of the temple, and the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing were painted with four golden words: "Protecting the country." ”
Moving down, it is a wooden frame carved from agarwood, there is a weapon quietly hanging on the wooden frame, the weapon is pitch black, the body is in the shape of a stick, the end is not pointed, the bottom has a jade pillar-shaped handle, the four sides are inwardly concave and divided into eight blades, it looks very extraordinary.
Wang Hao's eyes lit up, he approached the weapon, held it with his hand, and shook it with a hand, only about two catties weighing four feet long, which was exactly a hammer.
"I remember that the history textbook recorded that Emperor Han Ai gave Wang Mang a weapon named Kang Long Gong during his lifetime, hoping that Wang Mang could play the faint monarch and behead the ministers, and was regarded by Wang Mang as a treasure of Shang Fang, if nothing else, it should be it."
Wang Hao was very excited to hold the Kang Long Gong in his hand, and it was rumored that once the Kang Long Gong turned the iron wrench at the handle, it could detect the cracks of various weapons, and once it collided with the weapon, it would be broken. In the folk is even more said to be godlike, some people revealed that Kang Long Gong is the descendant of the caster Ou Yezi to take the meteorite outside the sky to forge three years of day and night, is the existence of the same artifact.
Wang Hao now touched Kang Longgong, as if he had picked up a treasure.
"Who are you, dare to trespass on the Taimiao, come to someone, take him down!"
At this time, outside the Taimiao, the soldiers of the New Dynasty who were patrolling by saw a man dressed in strange clothes and picked up a heavy weapon to protect the country, and rushed in with guns.
Wang Hao was startled holding Kang Longgong, looked at these soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding spears, and muttered, "I'm going to go...... Could this be the one played in the TV series...... Through? ”
However, before he could figure it out, a white-robed young general in the lead had already drawn his knife and waved: "Up!" ”
More than ten soldiers who poured into the temple stabbed at Wang Hao with their guns, the wind was howling, he subconsciously raised his gong to block, and when he knocked the spear with a few sounds, his arm was numb.
"Damn, you're still here."
Wang Hao scolded in a low voice, and then, with a slight flick of his arm, his thumb pulled the iron wrench on Kang Long's wrench, and with a squeak, he swung his wedge and smashed it into the next wave of guns.
Ping Pong –
Wang Hao was shocked backwards by the huge force, and the moment his footsteps stopped on the beams, there were a few crisp clicks, and the soldiers' spear heads fell to the ground one after another, and they held wooden sticks in their hands.
"Hey, Kang Longgong really lives up to his reputation, who of you wants to come again?" Wang Hao Debao is like this, and he has a lot of confidence in the face of the soldiers.
The white-robed young general's eyes were slightly condensed, quite unconvinced, and the knife in his right hand bounced out.
