Will Ming

Chapter [-]: Beauty Tears

Perhaps it was because ten years of turmoil had made the people numb to the military disaster, and the fighting that started in the morning did not make the people in Mingzhou City panic.Visit download txt novel No pedestrians can be seen on the streets and alleys, and the doors and windows of every house are closed tightly.

When the sun rose to its highest point, the rebels had already surrounded the Wanchun Palace.Wang Fubao's 10 troops outside the city had also entered the city one after another. Xiahou Burang and Shang Chenzheng of the Ministry of War ordered the defenders not to go out in the camp, so the rebels controlled Mingzhou at an astonishingly fast speed. It only took half a day. Most of Mingzhou City outside the three gates of Beicheng fell into the hands of the rebels.

The Wanchun Palace was built extremely solidly, and the rebels still did not break through the palace gate after attacking for an hour.Wang Fubao sent people to cut down huge trees in the royal garden in the northern city, made them into battering hammers and transported them outside the Wanchun Palace.

Seeing the battering ram coming up, the imperial guards on the city wall immediately became nervous. Dou Congshan ordered all the bed crossbows on this wall to be turned around to aim at the battering ram.The giant crossbow with thin iron feathers and fine steel fronts can easily tear a mighty war horse in half. If it hits a soldier, it will be smashed into pieces immediately.

Hundreds of rebel soldiers holding huge shields formed a shield formation, and the soldiers who pushed the city hammer moved forward slowly.Thousands of kilograms of heavy giant logs were hung on the shelves by thick chains, making creaking sounds as they traveled.Due to the rush of time, the city hammer was also very crudely made, without wheels, so it could only be moved forward with rolling logs under the base of the bracket.As a result, the speed of the already bulky battering hammer became even slower.

More than a dozen bed crossbows on the city wall continued to fire, and the sound made by the coiled cables was as piercing as the sound of steel files rubbing against bones.

The giant crossbows blasted into the shield formation one after another, and the huge shield, which was as tall as a man, was as thin as a piece of white paper in front of the heavy crossbow.

A heavy crossbow smashed fiercely on a huge shield, and with a click, it was shattered by the heavy crossbow as soon as it touched the giant shield.The soldier holding the shield burst open, and he felt a shock of pain in his arm before he flew backwards.The heavy crossbow easily shattered the shield, and even more easily tore open the shield hand's breastplate, pierced through the shield hand and continued to fly backwards with the body hanging.

The soldiers at the back only had time to utter a cry of surprise but had nowhere to hide. They were in a trance. Four corpses were hanging from the heavy crossbow and hit the bluestone slab fiercely. Purpose sparks.

A heavy crossbow was colliding with the giant log of the hammer. Under the huge force, the iron chain was swayed, and the giant log was knocked backward.The soldier pushing the cart behind couldn't dodge and was hit by a giant log on his chest. After a muffled bang, the soldier's chest immediately collapsed into a big hole, and a stream of thick blood overflowed from the mouth of the soldier who fell on the ground. I twitched a few times and seemed to be dead.

The lieutenant commanded by the rebel army shouted loudly, and the following shieldmen braved the blows of arrows and heavy crossbows to rush forward to replace the comrades who had died in battle.

The scene of the war was not very grand, but the fighting was extremely tragic from the very beginning.

The archers of the forbidden army on the city wall and the archers of the rebel army below the city became sworn enemies, and the feather arrows of both sides were so dense that they collided in mid-air.In just half an hour, the ground, city walls, and wooden buildings were covered with a layer of white feathers.Feathered arrows hit the ground of the bluestone slabs, making a dense and crisp sound, which was also mixed with the wailing of soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground.

An hour after the attack, the rebel army lost more than a thousand troops outside the Xiude Gate of Wanchun Palace.The alleys near the Wanchun Palace were full of wounded soldiers who had been rescued, and the closed doors and windows of every house could not stop the wailing voices of the wounded soldiers.

A rebel general rushed forward with a huge shield, and Wang Pao, who commanded the siege, immediately ordered the archers to shoot.The dense feather arrows formed an iron fist in mid-air, and suddenly bombarded the city wall.The soldiers of the Imperial Army were so suppressed that they could not raise their heads. Taking this opportunity, the soldiers who came up quickly changed the logs and pushed the hammer close to the city gate.

"Don't let the battering hammer come close!"

Dou Congshan on the city wall shouted loudly, grabbed a hard bow and shot it at the rebel general.The feather arrow was extremely accurate, but failed to break through the thick giant shield.

"All heavy armor!"

At this moment, a loud shout sounded behind the defenders.

Dou Congshan looked back and saw His Majesty the Emperor in golden armor striding up to the top of the city.

"All the heavy armored infantry are assembled in the city gate hole. Once the city gate is broken open, push it out immediately, Dou Congshan... You bring people to bring all the grain and grass in the palace. If the city gate is broken, the heavy armor will kill you." After going out, block the city gate with grain bags! The archers are divided into 500 people to gather at the bottom of the city, and the heavy armor is withdrawn!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

Seeing Dou Jiande climbing the city wall himself, the imperial guards who guarded the city burst into cheers.And when the rebels who had the upper hand in the city saw the figure in golden armor, their aura immediately stopped!

"I want to see, how can a few clowns take over my power!"

Dou Jiande strode to the city wall and looked at the rebels surrounded by the city wall.Although he hadn't fought in person for a long time, the power of a generation of tycoons suddenly exploded again.

"Wang Fubao!"

Dou Jiande shouted loudly: "Are you here to kill me!"

……

……

When Dou Jiande appeared at the top of the city, the chaotic and noisy scene suddenly became quiet.The archers on both sides stopped shooting arrows at the same time, and the soldiers who pushed the hammer forward slowly also stopped.For a moment, all eyes were on the old man in golden armor.

Dou Jiande is 50 years old and is no longer young.

But he still has the determination to kill for more than ten years, and there is still an aura of contemptuousness in his eyes.Ordinary soldiers had a natural fear of the emperor. Seeing the emperor go to the city in person at this time, the hearts of the rebels immediately beat up, and some even thought of retreating.

"Wang Fubao, you just made people yell the slogan of Qing Jun's side. Then I come to ask you, who do you want to clean up, Jun's side, or Jun!"

The sound of shouting was like thunder, and the rebel soldiers under the city almost subconsciously took a step back.The soldiers of the Forbidden Army on the city wall were highly motivated, and they all beat their breastplates with horizontal knives and uttered rhythmic battle songs one after another.

Dou Jiande raised his arm and slowly pressed down, the soldiers of the imperial army stopped their movements and became quiet again.

"His Majesty!"

Wang Fubao urged the horse to take a few steps forward, looked up at Dou Jiande and said loudly: "The rivers and rivers in Daxia have been declining for the past few years, and every day is not as good as every day. At the beginning, Your Majesty was so powerful in Hebei, who dared to fight? But now! The country of Daxia Already on the verge of collapse, foreign enemies have invaded, and the distance from the capital is less than a thousand miles away. Are the foreign enemies too strong!"

"no!"

Wang Fubao raised his finger and pointed at Dou Jiande and said: "You are too stupid! Over the years, the loyal ministers and good generals who helped you seize the world have been forced to death by you, so that now there is no general in the army who can lead the army! If Yin Qiushi praised Waiting for everyone to be there, why are you being bullied by foreign enemies?! Your Majesty...you don't reflect on yourself, but you still favor and trust treacherous ministers. If things go on like this, the country will not be the country!"

"country……"

Dou Jiande raised his finger to the sky: "The country is my country, it's your turn to point fingers?!"

"People have the heart of disobedience, so I still want to wait for the slaughter? Wang Fubao, I know you have rebelled... It's just that I think of your achievements for more than ten years, so I can't bear to hurt you. It's your false son who testified You have conspired against the truth, and I did not order you to be killed, but ordered someone to bring you back to the capital to defend yourself. Unexpectedly, you dare to lead troops to rebel!"

"His Majesty!"

Wang Fubao snorted coldly and said, "You're getting old and confused...you're only greedy for your own authority, and you can't see anything except the dragon chair in your eyes, just ask the soldiers on and off the city, Which one of them has no resentment in their hearts!"

"tell me!"

Wang Fubao pointed at Dou Jiande and asked loudly: "What do you want!"

"Eliminate the faint king and strengthen the country! Expel the foreign invaders and kill the traitors!"

The soldiers under Wang Fubao shouted out first, and gradually, the rebels under the city also forgot their fear of the emperor.The shouts of killing Hunjun surged like a wave, shaking the roof tiles on the city wall as if they were trembling.Dou Jiande has killed too many meritorious ministers in the army over the years, soldiers and generals, who has no resentment in his heart?

The shouts became louder and louder, and Dou Jiande's face immediately became extremely ugly.

"Traitors, all traitors!"

Dou Jiande's face became more ferocious, and he pulled out the horizontal knife at his waist and pointed it at Wang Fubao: "Whoever can kill the assassin who plots against the rebel, I will make him the Duke of the state, and he will have five thousand households in the city!"

Wang Fubao sneered and said, "Since it has come to this time, there is no need to hide anything... My sons and daughters! Whoever is the first to rush into the Wanchun Palace will be named a general and rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold! Whoever captures the faint king alive, I am willing to fight with him Sworn as brothers, we have the same blessings and share the same hardships!"

"kill!"

Wang Pao took advantage of the situation and shouted, and the archers of the rebel army sent out the feather arrows following the order.The soldiers of the Forbidden Army on the city wall quickly protected Dou Jiande, and many soldiers of the Forbidden Army were shot down by feather arrows and fell from the city wall.

At this time, suddenly a graceful figure ran up the city wall quickly, and rushed to the front of the tower regardless of everyone's obstruction. She looked at Wang Fubao under the city with tears on her face and shouted heartbreakingly: "Wang Fubao! Don't you even me?" Do you want to kill!"

……

……

"Red line..."

When Wang Fubao saw the graceful figure on the city wall, his expression couldn't help but stiffen.Looking at that familiar pretty face, his heart felt as painful as if a knife had been stabbed suddenly.

"Go down! It's too dangerous here!"

He sat up straight on his horse and shouted in an urgent tone.Seeing that the archer beside him was still shooting arrows, Wang Fubao jumped up from his horse and landed like an eagle, trampling the archer to the ground with one foot.The soldier didn't know how many ribs were crushed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and died.

"Stop it all!"

he ordered sharply.

"I won't go down!"

Dou Hongxian, who outlined her figure in a long red dress, was covered with tears. Standing on the edge of the city wall, she looked at Wang Fubao and said sadly, "If you retreat, I will go down! Wang Fubao... even if my elder brother made too many mistakes, he He is also my elder brother, and the king of a country! Even if I beg you...don't fight anymore!"

"Father!"

Wang Pao hurriedly rushed to Wang Fubao and persuaded him: "Father, you must not stop at this moment. Once you stop, you will be in vain. You and I, father and son, may end up with a different head!"

The muscles on Wang Fubao's face twitched, and there was pain in his eyes.He ignored Wang Pao, but looked at Dou Hongxian on the city wall and begged: "Red Xian, can you go down? I promise not to kill him, I promise! As long as you and I can be together, he will still be Da Xia's son." I will not object to the emperor, okay?"

Hearing these words, Dou Jiande's expression also changed!

He regretted it now, if he had agreed to Dou Hongxian's and Wang Fubao's marriage sooner, he might not be in such a dangerous situation today... But now, how can he go back?

"Lead your troops out of the city! I'll go out of the city alone to find you, okay?"

Dou Hongxian called out sadly: "I promise to go with you, please retreat!"

puff!

A feathered arrow came from nowhere, and precisely penetrated into Dou Hongxian's plump chest.Yu Jian casted so fast that no one saw it clearly.When the arrow came suddenly, everyone who shot through Dou Hongxian's heart finally realized it.

Dou Hongxian trembled violently, then slowly lowered her head to look at the quivering feather arrow on her heart.Her body swayed, and her eyes gradually returned to the man she had been thinking about day and night in the city.She reached out, as if to touch the bearded face one last time.

But as soon as the arm was raised, it drooped down again.

The red figure fell from the city wall and hit the ground heavily, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"what!"

Wang Fubao let out a terrifying roar with red eyes, like an enraged wolf.

Among the crowd in the city, Pei Ju quietly moved his body to block Pei Yong who was behind him...Pei Yong dropped his hard bow on the ground, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
