Chapter 305: The Fall of Luoyang (I)
Sky
The Acropolis is full of fire. )
The Hu cavalry received a new order, and some people who could speak Chinese shouted: "Those who surrender will not be killed!"
This sound shook the Acropolis, and after seeing that the resistance was hopeless and Luoyang would not reinforce the troops, the Luoyang army, which was still resisting, finally collapsed and began to surrender one after another.
On Luoyang City, Liu Man looked at the changes in the Acropolis with a blue face, and roared angrily: "A group of incompetent!"
But he was furious that the Acropolis Army had collapsed so quickly, but in the blink of an eye, someone shouted: "Look, the Hu people are here!"
Everyone hurriedly looked, and sure enough, a cloud of smoke and dust grew bigger and bigger, and in the firelight, hundreds of cavalry appeared in front of everyone's eyes, roaring along the city.
"What are the archers waiting for, release the arrows!" Liu Man roared.
“...... "Actually, this place is still far from the effective range of the bow and arrow, but the lord has an order, so he has to shoot it.
I saw a rain of arrows passing, but they fell on the dirt one after another, which immediately made the Hu people laugh.
However, these Hu people were still prepared, whistling, moving along the city wall, and from time to time shooting arrows into the city, and on each arrow, there was a letter of persuasion.
"Boom!" With a burst of air, arrows and letters fell into the city.
The crowd was in a commotion immediately, Liu Man's face was calm, hundreds of personal soldiers were patrolling left and right, swords and armor clanged, and after a while, some personal soldiers stepped forward and sent arrows and letters of persuasion to Liu Man.
Liu Mantie blushed, took the letter, shone at the firelight, his hand trembled slightly, unfolded the letter, and looked at the contents inside.
“...... , if Zheng Guogong in the city is willing to surrender, he will scrape people with the king",... The generals are willing to lead their troops to join and be appointed as generals...... Dare to resist stubbornly, attack the city, and the jade will be burned ......".
The contents of several letters were the same, even higher than that of the Hu envoy in the palace that day.
Only this time, Liu Man was not angry, but his face was pale, and he slowly clenched the letterhead in his hand and looked at Hu Bing below.
Below, in the light of the fire and the moonlight, I saw the sound of drums and trumpets, the smoke and dust rolling, and a large number of Hu people drove their troops out of the acropolis, stopping in a ball amid roars and bows and arrows.
After a while, the apparently loose Hu people, calmly arranged the formation, shouted in unison, and in just a moment, they formed a battle formation, and drew their long knives against the moonlight and firelight.
The snow and the sword light formed a torrent in an instant, turning into an invincible iron stream, seeing the Hu people shouting together, the soldiers in the city were all frightened and heartbroken, and they changed color one after another!
"Hooray!"
In the cheers of the tsunami of the Hu people's mountains, Huerbo rode his horse slowly forward, wearing golden armor, and came to the front of Luoyang under the protection of the dense personal soldiers.
Behind him was the burning fire, and the soldiers kneeling on the ground, surrounded by elite Hu soldiers, Huerbo's face turned flushed, and he waved his hand to the cheering soldiers and subjects.
"Hooray! Hurrah! Hurrah!" The call was even more overwhelming, wave after wave, this kind of military might, seeing the soldiers in the city, unconsciously trembled.
Looking at the upright figure of the Huren prince below, Liu Man showed a shocked look and was speechless in a daze.
That night, the army besieged the city, besieged but not attacked, and in the second half of the night, the Hu people also camped to rest, and the situation gradually calmed down.
In other words, in this world, Luoyang is the capital of Dayan in the former dynasty.
After the unification of the world, the Great Yan Taizu built the capital, repaired and repaired, and the inner and outer cities took the Chengtian Small Taiji Hall and the Xuanwu Gate as the central axis.
After the relocation of the capital of Dayan, the luxurious imperial palace gradually covered the dust, and most of the masters of Luoyang in the past dynasties only opened up and used the "Forbidden Garden" royal gardens and attached palaces for the sake of fame and economy.
Don't underestimate this palace, there are also 300 rooms, very luxurious, originally Liu Man was very proud of this, once boasted: "Although Wang Hongyi usurped the emperor, his palace is not as far away as lonely"
But now, I don't have that in mind.
The light in the hall was very dim, only a few candles were lit, and the light was faint, of course, it was not that there was no money or savings, but that Liu Man didn't like the bright light this time.
Liu Man kept saying a word with a calm face, just kept pacing, showing that he was in a very low mood.
Several eunuchs around stood with their hands down, unable to see clearly, because the prince was in a bad mood, just now when he was serving tea, he killed two palace people, and now in the whole palace, the atmosphere is depressing, whether it is a eunuch or a palace maid, they are all standing with their hands down, and the atmosphere does not dare to make a sound.
"Guogong, Mrs. Plum Blossom asks to see you. At this time, a eunuch came in from outside, prostrate on the ground in front of Liu Man, and said cautiously.
"She, what is she doing here at this time?" Liu Man stopped and frowned slightly.
Mrs. Plum Blossom is his inner relative, but it is not the main room, but a beauty presented by a family half a year ago.
This lady is beautiful, with charming bones, with a kind of fragrance, similar to plum blossoms, so it is called Mrs. plum blossoms, Liu Man likes it very much, it is to be favored, cherish abnormal.
Usually in the middle of January, half of the time, Liu Man wants to rest in this woman's residence.
It's just that the military situation has been tense recently, and now the Hu people are pressing the border again, Liu Man's heart is the same as cooking oil, how can he still be in the mood?
Hearing Mrs. Plum Blossom's request to see, there were some doubts in my heart.
"Guogong, Mrs. Plum Blossom said that you didn't sleep all night, and you were diligent in political affairs and worried about your body, so I boiled some soup and came. The prostrate eunuch said.
Liu Man's face softened slightly, and he said lightly: "Let her in."
"No!" the eunuch got up and went out to give orders.
After a while, there was a jingle from far and near, this is a well-dressed beauty, with high sideburns, a delicate blouse, supporting the chest bulging and protruding, Yi appears to have a slender waist, the waist is a jingling jewel, and the skirt is open, and the beautiful curve is bundled".
In this charming place, there is a kind of dignification, and he slowly bowed down in front of Liu Man.
"I've seen Guogong. Her voice was clear and sweet.
Liu Man saw her staring at him with a worried face, and his mood calmed down a little, and he saw a palace maid behind her, holding a plate in her hand, a bowl of soup on the plate, and smoking.
Liu Man said: "It's so late, it's hard for you to think of it, get up!"
Mrs. Plum smiled and saluted again, and said, "I heard that after the prince returned to the palace, he never slept or eaten, so I ordered the cook to stew a bowl of chicken ginseng soup." ”
Liu Man listened to it and smiled: "It's still thoughtful!"
Saying that, he smiled slightly, scooped the soup with a spoon and drank it, it was indeed a little delicious, but there was something in his heart, and it was difficult to show joy.
After a few sips, he put it down, and when he saw the beauty on the side, he couldn't help but pull it, and the plum blossom lady was on her body, letting Liu Man's hand explore the seclusion and move in the skirt.
Seeing this hand game on her chest, the snow-white plumpness, Mrs. Plum Blossom immediately became emotional, unable to speak, just coquettishly groaned.
In the past, he had already pressed her on his body, but at this time, let her get up, Liu Man sighed and said, "It's late at night, you go back!"
"Guogong, you have a lot of opportunities, how can I enjoy leisure in the back house and be indifferent?" When Mrs. Meihua heard Liu Man's words, her eyes immediately turned red, and she almost burst into tears.
The beauty's demeanor suddenly made people feel distressed, Liu Man's heart moved, and he said helplessly: "Hu people are raging outside, I really have something to do, I have wronged you...... Do you know anything about the Hu people?"
Liu Man raised his head and looked at her.
"Hu tens of thousands of cavalry surrounded Luoyang City, although it was only midnight, everyone in the city knew about it, although the concubine was in the palace, but also heard some news. Mrs. Plum Blossom turned behind Liu Man, gently pressed his head with her bare hands, massaged him, and said at the same time.
When the concubine heard the news, she knew that the prince would be worried and unable to sleep peacefully, so she boiled some soup and sent it to the prince. But I don't know what the prince is worried about?"
"Luoyang City is your city, it is well organized and impregnable by you, even if there are tens of thousands of soldiers in the Hu army, what are you afraid of?" Mrs. Plum Blossom said softly while massaging gently.
The tiredness of the day, under the massage of Qianqianyu's hands, has eliminated a lot.
Liu Man closed his eyes slightly, and said with a wry smile: "In the past, I was not afraid, but the yin and yang were wrong, and the 70,000 troops suffered great losses, and now the acropolis is broken, and there are only 15,000 troops in the city." ”
"If it's just like this, no matter how menacing the Hu people in the besieging city are, there are only tens of thousands, and our army can resist it as much as possible by relying on the big city of Luoyang. ”
"I'm most afraid that the hearts of the people in the city will be shaken, and the inside should be combined with the outside.... ”
In front of his woman's tenderness, Liu Man finally spit out his anxiety.
The Hu people are ferocious, and if the city is broken, it will be a catastrophe immediately, and they are afraid that they will die and the clan will be wiped out, and the woman in front of him will not have a good end.
"Guogong, you are well governed, who would have a different heart!" Mrs. Plum Blossom was very surprised.
"Things have changed, and people's hearts are rare...".
Mrs. Plum Blossom's hand stopped and said, "I believe that the National Guild will have a way." ”
After a pause, she said again: "The concubine is just a woman with a thin life, and she will die to repay her kindness, but the two sons have to plan early."
Hearing this, Liu Man was a little silent, seeing that he was silent, Mrs. Plum Blossom smiled slightly, but did not say more.
"Madam, I will consider this matter, you go down!" Liu Manliang said for a long time.
Mrs. Plum Blossom said gently, "Yes!"
Bring someone out of it.
Liu Man was silent in the hall, pacing back and forth, and Mrs. Plum Blossom's words aroused his feelings.
After running a few steps, he came to a bronze mirror, and Liu Man suddenly ordered: "Light a few candles here." ”
"Yes!" Someone immediately responded, the candle light looked in the mirror, and when he looked inside, he saw the mustard white face of a middle-aged man inside.
When he was young, he was full of spirit, so he naturally formed minions and henchmen.
Later, he killed the enemy, eliminated the anti-thieves, expelled the enemy generals, and finally seized the government and became the master of Luoyang.
A few years ago, he was still high-spirited, looking forward to the world, looking at the world, and in the blink of an eye, he was in the middle of nowhere, and now the situation is precarious, and the soldiers are coming to the city.
Gradually, ambition faded, and an indescribable tiredness came to my heart.
It's just that, loneliness can't sweep the world, but also be able to protect her and the child, and you can't die and laugh for the world
