Chapter 553: Send the Queen Mother, on the road!

In this situation, the first thought that popped up in Li Kui's mind was: There is a traitor who wants to harm the master!

The second thought that pops up is: the party members actually have cannons, which is unreasonable!

In fact, the military industry workshop in Western Xia was weaker than that of the Great Song Dynasty, and it was still stronger than that of the Liao State. The reason is very simple, the Guanzhong Plain, which was close to the political and economic center of the Tang Dynasty, spread technology and culture much faster than the frontiers such as Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures. Moreover, there are more technical talents than those in Yanyun area, and the technology is more exquisite.

To put it mildly, the Great Song Dynasty was at least 500 years ahead of the world in this era, and the Western Xia was at least 300 years ahead of the world.

This is what the Second Empire of Technology looks like!

When I heard this, it seemed ironic. But if you take a closer look, there seems to be nothing wrong with this. In addition to the underdeveloped shipbuilding industry in Western Xia, there were still many craftsmen in other workshops. It can meet the needs of weapons and equipment for years of war, which is a powerful cash out in this era.

It's just that compared with the technology of the Great Song Dynasty, any country in this era has to die.

The fire oil is refined, and Da Song has done it.

The use of gunpowder, the Great Song Dynasty also did it.

Ocean sailing, the Great Song can also do it.

To be able to accomplish this is already an amazing technology.

But when Li Kui saw that there were cannons at the head of the city in Western Xia, he didn't dare to believe anything. This was a deep-seated prejudice against the Tangut, and this prejudice led directly to the belief that the Tangut possessed cannons, which was a desecration of technology.

He once fantasized countless times in his dreams that he would kill the Western Xia Emperor with one shot, destroy the Liao Emperor with one shot, and bombard the Jurchens who are still wandering around in the deep mountains and old forests into scum.

But why is the reality so far from the dream, and the opposite?

Li Kui was about to cry.

He was clearly the inventor of artillery, and then ...... Died under the weapon invented by himself, this kind of ending is unjustly panicked when you think about it. If I had known this, I really shouldn't have invented the cannon.

Left?

Right?

Or is it in between?

Li Kui stared at the muzzle of the cannon with squeezed eyebrows, thinking about how to dodge in order to turn the crisis into safety. To be honest, Li Kui can't say for sure. It is mainly a cannon made by the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty, and the accuracy is really touching, and the deviation from the left and right is possible. As for the cannons made by the Tangut people, Li Kuizhen couldn't say. But if you really talk about it, there is someone in Western Xia who may have come up with this thing, and this person is Liang Yishu.

In the original battle of Jinmingzhai, Liang Yishu consumed too many troops in order to seize the artillery, and even did not hesitate to let the iron harrier pay huge casualties to cooperate with the seizure of the artillery.

But Li Kui always felt that this thing was more dangerous than what he and the craftsmen had made together. But what if Liang Yishu didn't supervise the cannon at all, but bombarded Li Kui with the artillery he snatched from the battlefield of Jinmingzhai? If this is killed by the cannon he made, he Li Kui will enter the history books in the year of his crown.

Don't wait too long for Li Kui, light the fuse, and it's just a little time.

With a loud cloud of smoke and loud noises, it was as if everything in heaven and earth had returned to static. Li Kui blinked for a while, staring at the city, feeling a little blind.

Explode!

It's just going to blow up?

Turn into a cloud of smoke, a ball of fire, and then it's gone?

Not only Li Kui was stunned, but even the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was also stunned. On the day she retreated to Jingzhou, she understood that Wang Cheng could not be defeated. Her only way out was to escape the Yellow River, go to the south bank, gather the remnants and confront Li Bingqian with the Yellow River as the boundary. This is already the best outcome, and she is waiting for her chance. Of course, this opportunity will not appear until more than two months later, and she will not have a chance until the Yellow River freezes and the carriages and horses can pass. But with less than 30,000 troops, it is indeed not easy to hold Jingzhou for two months.

Liang Yishu was already the only minister around Empress Dowager Xiao Liang who could be trusted, but he didn't expect Liang Yishu to die on the first day after being besieged.

And the way she died surprised her too, and she didn't even have any defense.

"Quick, let's go and see how the prime minister is?"

Although he knew the result, he still spread his thighs and ran over. Before, the direction in which Liang Yishu was standing was torn several pieces like rags, can this person still live?

And Li Kui was also a little confused, why did this Liang Yishu die?

And he was killed by his own cannon, although he died more unjustly, but the opportunity is rare. Just as Li Bingqian also turned his head to look at it, he sighed: "What's going on?" ”

"Heavenly Punishment!"

Li Kui seems to be full of sanctimonious authority, and he doesn't speak human words when he speaks. Li Bingqian believed that Li Kui was deliberately deceiving him, but Li Kui was serious, so people couldn't find flaws. This made him very suspicious, could it be that what Li Kui said was true?

But he clearly told him sensibly that Li Kui should be lying to him!

This made Li Bingqian very irritable and frightened, and he felt a kind of ignorance that fell into blindness, and he couldn't extricate himself.

"Heavenly punishment?" Li Bingqian asked rhetorically.

Li Kui raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart: This guy didn't believe what he said, he was such an upright guy, would he tell nonsense?

Li Kui touched his chin, thinking about his firm character, nodded and said seriously: "It's okay to say that God is damned." ”

Li Bingqian stared at Li Kui's eyes, and suddenly felt a little ashamed, he finally understood that Li Kui was lying to him. But what made him aggrieved was that he just couldn't find a reason to refute Li Kui. In desperation, he could only give up in frustration and asked Li Kui: "Brother Xian thinks this is an opportunity?" ”

"Of course, immediately launch an onslaught on Jingzhou."

"How to attack?"

"The whole army will go up together, and those who ascend the city for the first time will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold and sealed 10,000 households! The destruction of the city is today. ”

"Too many!" Li Bingqian's heart trembled suddenly, he didn't know the price of firewood and rice, and he only found out after he became a family that most of the treasury in Western Xia was running rats. Where is the reward of 10,000 taels of gold? Even if he can get 10,000 taels of gold, but now that he needs money everywhere, Li Bingqian does not dare to be extravagant.

But the opportunity really made Li Bingqian a little moved, especially what Li Kui said: The city is broken today. In other words, once the city is broken, he will be able to sit on the throne of the Western Xia Kingdom. This moment is a bit unrealistic, but when it comes to a pinch, no one will back down. Li Bingqian gritted his teeth and agreed: "Yes." Then he became weak again, and said to Li Kui secretly: "Can you borrow tens of thousands of taels of gold for your brother?" Not for nothing. ”

Li Kui rolled his eyes and said: "The landlord's family has no surplus grain, besides, the king, he is a son of a poor family, and he used to be a hunter." Then he said cheaply: "Triple interest." ”

Bullshit Orion! Li Bingqian rolled his eyes and turned his head in disgust, he believed that he was a hammer.

If you kill Li Bingqian, you won't believe that Li Kui is from Orion. Can Orion be born to lend? The reality is so helpless, today's Li Kui, no one believes the truth, but tells lies, but no one questions it.

Li Bingqian said decisively: "Today's will be rare, for a brother is still the same sentence, as long as you are willing to stay, any benefit can be mentioned." It's not impossible to rule Great Xia with you. ”

Li Kui really can't agree to this, his family is all in the Great Song Dynasty, if he becomes a prince in Western Xia, what will happen to this family? You can't be a negative person, right?

Li Kui said helplessly: "Brother Moti." ”

"Brother Li give the order!" Li Bingqian said helplessly.

Li Kui said: "Doesn't the king want to give the order himself?" ”

Li Bingqian hoarsely lowered his eyebrows, and looked down at the magic weapon that Li Kui secretly handed over, the red copper horn. In the end, he shook his head in frustration and said, "Let's come here!" For a brother's voice can't compare. ”

There is no way, inside and outside Jingzhou City, there are more than 100,000 people, and there is really no louder voice than Li Kui.

Li Kui is not a person with ink, he raised the loudspeaker and put it to his mouth and shouted: "The sky has eyes, and the heavens will send down the damnation, and the Liang family should be destroyed!" ”

"The whole army obeyed the order, and all the soldiers of the whole army threw themselves into the siege."

"Whoever climbs the tower for the first time will be rewarded with ......"

felt that Li Bingqian secretly pulled his clothes, and whispered to Li Kui: "Ten thousand, ten thousand is fine." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ 10,000! ”

Hula, there are nearly 100,000 troops outside the city, and the moment they heard 10,000, there were not many people except the generals and leaders who were moved, but the eyes of ordinary soldiers and servant soldiers were green. 10,000 can make them gorgeously turn from poor to rich.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The slogan shouted loudly and the momentum soared into the sky.

In the past, such slogans were useless. can be in today's Jingzhou City, Zuo Xiang, who really arranged the defense and dispatched the generals, just died. Although Empress Dowager Xiaoliang has a high status, she does not know how to fight and defend. Liang Kewei, who was temporarily summoned to entrust him with important tasks, lacked prestige and was still young, and it was difficult to convince the public.

The battle has begun, and Li Bingqian is here, and the soldiers' momentum is very high.

But there were too many rabble, and soon after they got close to the walls, they suffered heavy casualties. When they began to ascend the city, people fell from the city like snowflakes.

But the huge military advantage still allowed them to succeed.

In less than two hours, the first soldier reached the top of the city, and as more and more people climbed the city, it was only a matter of time before Jingzhou was broken.

Fei Tingdoro even knelt down in front of Li Bingqian excitedly, and shouted hoarsely: "King, your plan is done!" ”

Li Bingqian didn't believe this at all, did he have a plan? It can't be said that there is no, but the previous plan, for today's scene, is just a small fight, he originally wanted to rely on the prestige of the national teacher of Wei Ming Deyuan, plus the status of the royal family, to win over the royal family who were dissatisfied with the Liang family, and launch a coup d'Γ©tat. It's a pity that Wei Ming Deyuan's attitude has always made him feel powerless.

Until one day, he met Li Kui.

It can't be said that he met Li Kui, but Li Kui found out his identity and left a case record in Yan'an Mansion. After that, the road became more and more unbelievable.

Paste gold to the Big Buddha and get the attention of the famous Deyuan.

In the desert, he killed the national teacher Wei Ming Deyuan, took control of the Huguo Temple, and lured the Black Water Army.

In the following two months, he rose rapidly in Western Xia as if he had opened the world, and this speed made him unable to believe it.

And now, he even saw that the throne was no longer his.

I can't believe it, it's definitely friendship. Li Bingqian still has a lot of feelings about Fei Tingduoluo's subordinates, and along the way, the cronies who followed him were him: "Get up, the city has not been broken yet, everything is difficult to say." ”

"No, King, you are the real master of Great Xia, and you are the luck of Great Xia, and no one can take away your luck." Although Fei listened to Doro's speech intermittently, his tone was like a magic stick, and he opened his mouth to heaven and earth, as if Li Bingqian's appearance was the great savior of Western Xia. But in fact, he is a disaster star, and now the loss of national strength in Western Xia is definitely more than any military fiasco.

It can't be said that Li Bingqian is a disaster star, to be precise, Li Bingqian invited the disaster star to Western Xia, so there was this catastrophe.

The moment the city gate opened, the rebels suddenly shouted excitedly.

The tide generally rushes into the city, killing people when they see them, and robbing them when they see wealth.

Li Kui, surrounded by his subordinates, also entered the city. The first place he went to was the place where Liang Yishu died. Although the previous explosion showed that the cannon built by Liang Yishu was very problematic. But if it can explode, it will naturally be able to launch the projectile. If it really waited until Western Xia also made cannons, it would definitely be a nightmare for Li Kui.

As the inventor of the cannon, he should have destroyed the cannons of the Tanguts, right?

But they are all solid projectiles, and they are all barrels made of iron and copper bumps. If you want to talk about the technical content of this thing, it's really not that mysterious. The key flowering bomb, Li Kui will not either.

"Is this it?"

"My lord, you sniff the smell in the air, and the blackened city walls, it should be here, yes." Pang Wanchun pointed to the surrounding traces and assured Li Kui: "My lord, the villain must find out the wreckage of the cannon." ”

"Be quick, find it before the party members react."

Li Kui instructed: "This is related to the fortune of the country, even if it is destroyed, it cannot be detected by the party members." and the craftsmen who supervise the manufacture of the cannons shall also be extinguished. ”

"It's my lord!"

It took a lot of effort to find the fragments of the cannon, but fortunately, there were enough people, and a few large fragments were quickly found. Although I can't put together a complete cannon, I can already see the clues. Li Kui looked at the pile of not small pieces on the ground, and said in surprise: "So big? ”

Big is for sure.

Only if it is big enough, it is powerful.

But when Li Kui picked up a piece of fragment, his face was strange, and the trachoma all over it was not good. Weigh the caliber of the cannon made by Liang Yishu, as well as the material.

Pig iron.

The caliber is larger than the mouth of the bowl.

However, the cannon wall is very thin, almost about the same thickness as the muzzle wall of the cannon built by Li Kuidu. It's strange that such a cannon doesn't blow up.

It was impossible to bring it back, and Li Kui ordered Pang Wanchun: "Destroy it!" ”

Then he said to the surroundings with a relaxed face: "We should go and see how the affairs of the King of Delete Dan are doing." ”

In the official offices in the city, almost all the generals of the rebels came. Li Kui, who was late for Shanshan, walked to Li Bingqian's side and asked, "King, what's the situation?" ”

"She doesn't want to die!"

Li Bingqian was very melancholy, if he had reached this point, he would have committed suicide a long time ago. Because it is harder to live than to die.

Li Kui said bewildermently: "Then you can help her!" ”

Others didn't dare to persuade Li Bingqian, but Li Kui didn't care. He is not from Western Xia, he is a Song Chen. Of course, it is definitely impossible to do it, Li Kui killed the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, and the nature changed. Outsiders killed the Empress Dowager of Western Xia, which became a national feud. To deal with the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, Li Bingqian had little choice, killed her, slept with her, and chose one of the two.

After all, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is Li Bingqian's imperial sister-in-law, and everyone hopes that the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is dead. Not only the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang has to die, but the emperor must also die. Only in this way can it meet the expectations of all the rebel leaders to divide the court. If you keep the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, it will be too bad for everyone.

But the problem is that no one dares to attack the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang.

No one dares to contaminate the notoriety of killing kings.

The moment they saw Li Kui, Mi Baoguang and the others lit up, Hei Dashuai was a good candidate. The power is high, and the hand is heavy, and the queen mother can be surpassed overnight.

But as soon as Li Kui opened his mouth, everyone was disappointed, and he actually encouraged Li Bingqian to kill the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang.

Li Bingqian also knew that he couldn't dodge, but the question was, did he really have to go through his hands?

He sighed: "After all, he is the wife of his brother, so he should have dignity in his feelings." ”

Mi Baoguang was a rough man, and he asked angrily: "King, what do you mean?" ”

Li Kui pouted and said, "Keep the whole corpse." ”

Mi Baoguang shrank his head, feeling that his question was a bit redundant, and he was a little afraid to ask any more. What would he do if he was asked to help? The minister who kills the king, even if it is a hero, has a high probability of no good result. Not to mention that all of these people were unhappy when the Liang family was in power, but they were all smart people, and they didn't even have a single stunned young man.

This is also reasonable, if you were stunned, you would have been cleaned up by the Liang family a long time ago.

Seeing that it was going to be dark, Li Kui simply bowed to Li Bingqian and said, "Please make a decision." ”

"But what if she tickles me?" Li Bingqian said a reason that even he thought was ridiculous.

Unexpectedly, Li Kui was a person who was in a hurry, reached out, grabbed a belt and tore it off. Turning his head, he found that Hua Kesi was glaring at him with a sad and angry face, but he didn't dare to say a word. Hua Kesi regretted that he was standing too close to see the excitement, holding the loose armor in both hands, and his lips sighed and wanted to scold. But when he saw that it was Li Kui, he decisively chose to shut up.

Li Bingqian held the belt in his hand, if he used the belt to tie the hands and feet of the Empress Dowager Liang, it would be much easier for him to do it himself. Gritting his teeth, someone else offered a weapon, a leather whip. Don't think about it, generals have war horses, and the leather whip can not only clean up military discipline, but also drive war horses, which is a necessary equipment for generals to go out. When it is critical, it can also be used as a murder weapon. Li Kui tilted his head, looked at Li Bingqian's disappearing back, and said in his heart: As long as you get together a prop, you can complete a magical combination.

Fei Tingdoro was Li Bingqian's minion, and volunteered to rush into the main room.

After stepping into the house, a strange voice came out, a young woman with a coquettish voice and a frightened voice.

Li Kui shouted outside: "Send the Queen Mother on the road!" ”

The crowd didn't think it was too big to shout: "Send the Queen Mother, on the road!" ”

"Li Bingqian, the mourning family is your imperial sister-in-law!"

"Fei Ting, hold her feet."

"Don't mess around."

"You beast!"

……

The rebel leaders standing outside the door frowned one by one, as if there was no murderous movement in the room!

The smell of decay and decay lingered in the hearts of everyone.
