The last three kingdoms

Chapter 771 Breaking through the palace
Liu Yin did not stop Fu Zhu's actions. In his opinion, although Fu Zhu's actions were childish and reckless, they were not bloody. The banner of the Han family should have been exclusively enjoyed by the Shu Han, and they were the ones to inherit it. The orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, the Huns pretended to be the nephews of the Han family and misused the banner of the Han family, so it is no wonder that they were not hated by the generals of the Shu army.

It is foreseeable that in future wars, the generals and soldiers of the Shu army will inevitably share the same hatred against the enemy, and will definitely hold a deep hostility towards the Huns' unreasonable trespass. The most hated enemy of soldiers.

Liu Yuan thought that calling Han could gather popularity for him, but in the end, instead of gaining any popularity, he suffered a lot of resentment for no reason, which is not worth the candle.

After controlling the four gates of Zuoguo City, Liu Yin has already firmly controlled Zuoguo City in his own hands. Through the mouth of the Huns captives, Liu Yin learned that there is a big fish in the city, which is Liu Yuan's. Father, "King of Han" Liu Bao.

After Liu Bao became king, he handed over all the affairs of state to Liu Yuan, and he could just be a free and easy king.Liu Bao is very old, and he is already unable to handle political affairs. Fortunately, Liu Yuan's performance is quite eye-catching. Liu Bao is very relieved to entrust him with military affairs, and Liu Bao is here In the city of Zuoguo, I will take care of my life.

Liu Yuan fought with the Jin army in Hanoi and Jizhou, which were the frontier positions, so it was not suitable for Liu Bao to stay there. Only Zuoguo City, the home of the Huns, was in the rear, peaceful and peaceful. Liu Yuan placed Liu Bao here, so he It is a manifestation of his filial piety.

But no one would have thought that in a sudden change, Liu Yin would sneak attack Zuoguo City, putting Liu Bao, who was originally at ease, in a crisis, which obviously betrayed Liu Yuan's original intention.

After getting the news, Liu Yin immediately led his troops to besiege Liu Bao's palace.

Liu Bao's palace occupies almost a quarter of the area of ​​Zuoguo City. The palace walls are tall and heavily guarded, just like a city within a city.

However, Liu Yin has already captured the Zuoguo City. No matter how strong Liu Bao's palace is, it is only a tiny place. Liu Yin believes that Liu Bao who is trapped in the palace has nowhere to go and cannot fly.

A living Liu Bao is far more valuable than a dead Liu Bao. As long as Liu Bao can be captured alive, Liu Yuan must be wary, unless he can make up his mind to give up his father's life.Liu Yin issued an order to capture Liu Bao alive, and the Shu army surrounded the Huns' palace.

The most elite troops of the Huns guarding the palace are definitely not comparable to those Huns guarding the outskirts of Zuoguo City. Although surrounded by the Shu army, the palace guards did not show any signs of panic. They guarded the palace gates and walls tightly. Standing ready for a decisive battle with the Shu army.

Liu Yin sent Shu soldiers who were proficient in the language of the Huns to shout, and the Shu soldiers yelled loudly at the top of their lungs. Occupying an absolute advantage, these Shu soldiers shouted with confidence and their voices were loud.

However, the Xiongnu soldiers in the palace remained silent collectively, unmoved by the shouts of the Shu army. Some Shu soldiers got too close when shouting, and were injured by the cold arrows of the Huns instead.

Fu Zhu said angrily: "These guys are simply stubborn, and they don't know how to survive. Brother-in-law, you can't be too kind to these guys, you should kill them in one go, and kill them cleanly!"

Liu Yin also knew that Liu Bao's guards must be the elite of the Xiongnu. Although there were not many of them, their willpower was by no means comparable to that of ordinary soldiers. Even if they were really facing a desperate situation, they would not surrender easily.Since persuasion to capitulate was fruitless, the only option was to attack by force.

"Zicheng, organize your troops to prepare for the assault immediately, but remember, the Xiongnu King Liu Bao must be captured alive, and his life must not be hurt."

Fu Zhu couldn't hold back for a long time. Hearing Liu Yin's order, he immediately commanded the soldiers of the Tiger Cavalry Army to attack the Xiongnu Palace.

The palace walls of the Xiongnu Palace are comparable to the outer walls of Zuoguo City, and are not inferior to the outer walls in terms of sturdiness. The soldiers of the Tiger Cavalry Army abandoned their horses and found some ladders. Under the cover of the archers, they launched a fierce attack on the palace wall.

The defense of the palace guards was extremely tenacious. Facing the swarming Shu army, the palace guards did not flinch at all. They all stood on the front line of the palace wall, defending desperately with bows and arrows, and blocked the attack of the Shu army.

All of a sudden, arrows flew like flying above and below the city, and the battle for the palace was extremely fierce.

Seeing that the Shu army suffered a lot of casualties, Liu Yin frowned slightly. It seems that the palace guard of the Huns is really not a team that is easily broken up. The fighting spirit is quite high, if the Shu army adopts the method of strong attack, then even if they finally win the palace, they will definitely pay a considerable price.

Liu Yin looked carefully and saw that although the palace was closed, it was not sealed, so he called Ah Jian over and gave some instructions.

Ah Jian went down immediately, and had someone prepare an ordinary luggage cart, on which a lot of gunpowder was piled, pushed by several shield soldiers, braved the rain of arrows, and pushed the luggage cart to the gate of the palace.

The gunpowder was ignited, and there was a loud "boom", and the smoke dispersed, and the entire palace gate was shrouded in a cloud of smoke. Only when the gunpowder smoke cleared, did everyone see clearly that the originally extremely strong palace gate had long been blown to pieces. It was torn apart, and even the few Xiongnu soldiers hiding behind the palace gate were blown to pieces.

The power of gunpowder has long been used by the Shu army. At critical moments, gunpowder attacks can have miraculous effects, but the Huns have never seen the power of gunpowder. They were stunned when they were blown up.

The cavalry of the Shu Army, who were ready to go, rushed up decisively at this time. The broken palace gate was no longer able to stop their offensive. ****.

The tenacity of the Xiongnu palace guards did not disintegrate because of the breaking of the palace gate. Although they retreated steadily, they still resisted. It was not an easy task for the Shu army to advance every step. A palace gate.

However, no matter how tenacious the Huns were, they could not reverse the general trend of the fall of the palace. The Xiongnu King Liu Bao, who was their bodyguard, was sitting on the top of the hall at the moment, his face was pale, and Liu Bao's face was slightly shaken by the occasional shouts of killing from outside the hall. Twitching, there was endless despair in his eyes.

Liu Bao sighed heavily, and said, "Open the door and surrender, there is no point in struggling any longer."
