Chapter 232: Great Loyalty Seems to Be Treacherous
Outside Lin'an City!
Chang Yuchun commanded the soldiers to push hundreds of catapults to the front of the battle, and ordered the soldiers to fill the catapults with clay pots.
This scene made Zhao Gou and others at the head of the city look inexplicable.
Looking at the hundreds of catapults lined up horizontally outside the city, Wan Qiaowei was so frightened that he trembled, and his teeth chattered: "If the minister's expectation is right, the clay pot should be filled with fire oil, and the rebels want to set fire to the city, and the officials must not ignore it." ”
When Zhao Gou heard this, he frowned, glanced sideways at Wan Qiao, whose body was shaking like chaff, a look of disdain that could not be concealed flashed in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "It's a big deal to burn with Lin'an jade, what are you afraid of?" ”
Hearing this, Wan Qian nodded awkwardly, and said with a smile on his face: "What the official family said is extremely true, what he said is extremely true." ”
Wan Qian said so, but what he thought in his heart was "Dead friends are not dead and poor." ”
He didn't have the mind and consciousness to die generously with Zhao Gou.
Looking at the catapult phalanx that was only more than four hundred steps away from the city, Zhang Jun frowned and fell into contemplation, after contemplation, he couldn't help frowning, and said: "The effective range of the catapult is about eight hundred steps, but why do they arrange the catapult four hundred steps away from the city?" ”
Zhang Bao, who was temporarily brought in by Zhang Jun to be a strong man, couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said, "Xu thinks that the distance is closer, so that he can exert the maximum power of the catapult?" ”
When Zhang Jun heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said: "The catapult is not as good as an arrow, he needs to fly a certain distance in the air, and after accumulating power, he will increase the sense of blow through the force of the fall, so if the distance is too close, it is not a good thing for the catapult." ”
When Zhang Bao heard this, he nodded clearly.
Just when the two of them were puzzled by Liu Wei's intentions.
Chang Yuchun outside the city quickly revealed the answer for everyone, Chang Yuchun raised his saber and pointed directly at Lin'an City, and with an order, five hundred catapults that had been loaded were launched at the same time, launching the first round of stone-throwing attacks into the city.
Five hundred clay pots pierced the sky with a sound of wind that almost wanted to tear their eardrums, and flew straight to Lin'an City.
Seeing this, the defenders of the city, including Zhao Gou, hid behind the battlements to avoid the terrifying stone-throwing attack.
After a long time.
Everyone was surprised to find that the catapult had completed the first round of projection, but the attack had not yet arrived, Zhao Gou frowned for some reason, looked up at the sky, but saw that several clay pots that fell behind were flying over the city with a burst of wind, and flew straight into the city.
Seeing this, Zhao Gou couldn't help frowning, with an uncertain expression on his face, he stood up silently, looking at the hundreds of clay pots that flew into the city across the city, and couldn't help frowning and falling into deep thought.
After a long time.
Zhao Gou, who was puzzled, frowned and looked at Wan Qiao, and asked, "What do the rebels want?" ”
Wan Qiyu shook his head in confusion, laughed embarrassedly, and said, "The rebels are cunning, and the ministers can't guess their thoughts. ”
At this very moment.
Yang Cunzhong, who was in charge of the Shenwu Chinese Army at the time, silently came to Zhao Gou, handed the note he was holding in his hand to Zhao Gou, and said: "This is the thing in the clay pot, and I respectfully ask the official family to take a look." ”
Zhao Gou silently glanced at Yang Cunzhong, stretched out his hand to take the note handed by Yang Cunzhong, and looked at it at a glance and ten lines. ”
Liu Wei ordered people to use catapults to throw clay pots into Lin'an City, and the clay pots were filled with words that wantonly smeared Zhao Gou, and the contents of the note were clumsilyly written by Qin Hui himself.
Qin Hui first directly named his identity as Zaifu at the beginning, and then according to Liu Wei's instructions, he deliberately smeared Zhao Gou as a big traitor who had no brother and colluded with the Jin people to kill the people.
Qin Hui finally emphasized the legitimacy of Liu Bian, and truthfully recounted Liu Bian's heroic deeds after escaping from the Five Kingdoms City.
In comparison, Liu Wei's image was set off by Zhao Gou, and Zhao Gou was portrayed by his most trusted Zai Fu as a clown with mediocre qualifications and mediocre abilities, but extremely greedy for power.
The eyes of the people are bright, who is superior and who is inferior, although they do not say it on their lips, but their hearts are like mirrors.
Now that Liu Wei is leading his troops to the city, Zhao Gou originally only had worries outside the city, but now he has to face troubles inside the city.
Looking at Zhao Gou, who was holding the note in his hand and losing his soul, Wan Qiaowei sighed secretly, immediately made a judgment, and said in his heart: "The people's hearts have been lost, and their safety is in danger." ”
Wan Qian thought about it, bowed down and saluted Zhao Gou, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, the officials are willing to go to Zhang Shuxiang's army and supervise the battle with a knife." ”
When Zhao Gou heard this, as if grasping the last life-saving straw, he held Wan Qiao's hand and said: "The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty, only Aiqing can be loyal and brave, after this battle, when the meritorious deeds are rewarded, I will be determined to take the position of Zai Fu to reward Aiqing's loyalty and bravery." ”
When Wan Qian heard this, the big radish looked at Zhao Gou with a face that was not red or white, and said: "The official family is like the virtue of the sky, and the ministers have nothing to repay, and they are willing to live and die together with Lin'an to repay the kindness of His Majesty." ”
"Okay."
At the same time, Zhao Gou was greatly moved, untied the sword from his waist, handed it to Wan Qiao, and said: "Seeing things is like seeing the king, giving you the right to cut first and then play." ”
Wan Qiwei took the "Shang Fang Sword" handed over by Zhao Gou with both hands, knelt on his knees, and bowed to Zhao Gou and said: "It is a blessing for three lives to be trusted by the official family, and the minister is willing to use this body to serve the official family." ”
(Shang Fang sword is in quotation marks because during the Song Dynasty, the concept of Shang Fang sword did not appear)
Wan Qian said, holding the "Shang Fang Sword" in his hand, choked up and said goodbye to Zhao Gou, and went straight to Zhang Junjun's army.
Looking at Wan Qiao's back gradually moving away, Zhao Gou suddenly felt more confident and sighed: "The Great Song Dynasty has loyal ministers." ”
After a long time.
Wan Qiaowei came to meet Zhang Jun with the "Shangfang Sword" given by Zhao Gou in both hands.
Zhang Jun silently glanced at Wan Qiao, who was holding Shang Fang's sword, and frowned, "Why are you here?" ”
Wan Qiyu silently put the sword aside, looked left and right as if he was a thief, and saw that there was no one around, so he pulled Zhang Jun to a place where there was no one, and said: "Dare to ask the cardinal minister, this victory is negative geometry?" ”
Zhang Jun naturally heard the meaning of Wan Qiao's words, he looked directly into Wan Qiao's eyes with a playful expression, and said, "What do you say?" ”
Seeing this, Wan Qiyu couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, and said: "We Mingren don't say dark words, I watch this battle, the outcome has been decided, and under the internal and external troubles, the official family has no chance of winning." ”
When Zhang Jun heard this, he couldn't help frowning, looked at Wan Qiao's face uncertainly, and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Looking at Zhang Jun, who was quite vigilant, Wan Qian shook his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Zhang Shuxiang, it's already this time, can we be honest?" ”
Zhang Jun looked at Wan Qiaoyun with a strange expression and asked, "What kind of frank method?" ”
Wan Qian looked directly into Zhang Jun's eyes, and said word by word: "Today's words, out of my mouth, into your ears, God knows that you know I know, if it is listened to by a third person, the person who leaks the secret will be killed by five thunders, and he will never be able to live beyond life." ”
Wan Qian said, raised his right hand, greeted him in the air, and waited for Zhang Jun's reply.
Seeing this, Zhang Jun nodded silently, and then raised his hand to clapped his hands with Wan Qiao.
Until this time.
Wan Qian finally opened his heart to Zhang Jun, he silently leaned into Zhang Jun's ear, and whispered: "Zhang Shuxiang, in my opinion, let's still descend, right?" ”
