I’m The King

The defense of Xianyang's periphery collapsed so quickly that not only did the Qin people who were trapped in the isolated city never expected it, but even the attacking Han* team was greatly unexpected, so that after occupying the periphery defense line, the pause was temporarily temporary. Stopped, because the Han army was not ready to attack Xianyang last.

But three days later, the artillery roared again, this time directly attacking the tall and steep city walls of Xianyang. As the capital of a country, the tall and steep walls of Xianyang City are naturally well-deserved, and after the advent of reinforced concrete, Xianyang City has been strengthened again. In history, there are no shortage of examples of being stuck in a lonely city for more than ten years and still being able to hold on to it. . And this has become the only thought of the people in the city.

Inside the Black Ice Terrace Hall, Lu Chao sat on the throne in full costume, and under the steps, all officials in Xianyang, big and small, were told today that they must go up to face the monarch.

In the Black Ice Platform, rows of eagle soldiers stood with their swords, adding a bit of murderous aura to the already solemn Black Ice Platform Hall. Everyone dared not take a breath, watching their noses and their hearts. Since Qin and Chu formed an alliance last year to attack the Han dynasty, Lu Chao’s temper has become moody. Killing is commonplace. It's not because of how long your family history and how high a prominent position you have. If you don't agree with one another, you will be waiting for you.

The heavy door of the Black Ice Terrace Hall was closed, the light in the room was suddenly dimmed, and huge bull candles were lit, and the faint artillery reflected everyone's uncertain face.

Although the gate was thick, it couldn't stop the rumble of cannons coming from a distance, and the drop point of the artillery seemed to be getting closer. Accompanied by the huge roar of artillery, there are countless weird chirps. And this kind of weird sound even passed over the black ice platform hall from time to time. The howl that tore through the air made everyone frightened.

This is the latest weapon of the Han army at Hangu Pass. In one fell swoop, Qian Zhongyi's 20,000 elite defenders were destroyed. With the defeat of Hangu Pass more and more intelligence. It also made the people in Xianyang more and more afraid. It was the sickle of the **** of death, the harvester of life, it could not be stopped at all.

Since yesterday, this weird sound of tweeting has not stopped. The only thing different from Hangu Pass is that after the bomb exploded, it was not the kind of ghost fire that fell. Rather, it's just a flurry of exposing posts.

The content of the posting is self-evident. It is naturally persuading to surrender, calling on the people of Xianyang to rise up to overthrow the tyranny, and lure the soldiers in the city to surrender. The eagle sergeant led by Gou Yi ran and broke his leg, trying to collect all these exposed posts, but no matter how fast they ran, they were not as fast as the outsiders. After the explosion, all the white posts were flying all over the sky. There is nothing to receive. Indestructible, in the end, Gou Yi gave up this meaningless move.

"Let's talk about it. What should we do now?" Above the imperial ranks, Lu Chao's cold voice sounded, as if coming from Jiuyou Hell, all courtiers lowered their heads in silence. Now, they are really helpless, no, there should be more. One, a pity. No one dared to speak out.

Outside the city, the artillery of the Han army was pulling out the firepower points on the city one by one. The quality of the artillery in the city is much better than the deadly suicidal guns of the peripheral defenses. Although the firing speed is slow, he has been shooting under the city, but as soon as he exposes his firepower point, he will immediately provoke a violent artillery blow. The covering shot will destroy the fort on the city bit by bit, and eventually Pull out this firepower point.

This is the last battle, and no commander would care about the wastage of ammunition.

A team of infantrymen took advantage of the gap between artillery shots in the city, passed through the fire blockade, and went straight to a place not far from the city wall, and started to erect their infantry artillery.

Small cannons lined up densely, and with an order, one cannonball jumped out of the barrel. Unlike other artillery, this type of infantry cannon flies through a high parabola in the air. Accurately falling one by one on the city wall, the continuous sound of explosions and the sparkle of fire, accompanied by the screams of the soldiers on the city, formed the main theme of the entire battlefield.

The firepower of the Han army covered all areas in the middle, far and near areas. The fierce artillery attack lasted for a whole morning. The amount of shells consumed was 100,000. The counterattack on the city finally became weaker and weaker, and it finally fell silent.

With the loud sound of the bugle, the foot soldiers who had been holding back for a long time finally started to attack. Numerous siege vehicles, siege roads, ramming hammers, rushing vehicles, and ladders were pushed by the Han army, looking up, in the mountains. Amidst the roaring sound, he rushed towards the city wall of Xianyang. The range of the artillery began to extend at this moment, and the small artillery under the city became more and more violent, so that Qin Bing, who was hiding in the cave, could not get out of the city.

Amidst the shaking and swaying mountains, a series of ladders were put up on the city wall, one after another siege carts leaned up, and the anchor hooks in front of the siege trestle stubbornly hooked on the wall stacks. With these siege tools, they climbed up like ants. On the city almost as high as the city wall, countless divine machine crossbows fired locust-like crossbow arrows, suppressing the Qin army at the head of the city to death, almost Qin Jun would be shot down like a hedgehog. Occasionally there is a burst of arrow rain rushing forward, facing the tall building, the anchor hook is fastened, and there is no other way, but desperately waving the knife in his hand, desperately chopping the thin anchor hook of the child's arm , Qingting Shake Zhu generally wanted to push these huge guys away from the city wall.

Inside the Black Ice Platform, there was still deathly silence, no one spoke, and no one dared to speak.

With a bang, the closed door was slammed against the wall, and a **** general rushed in. A staggered, fell on the icy black ground, tried to get up but was helpless. Seeing the blood flowing out of the general's body, there was a bang in the hall, and he was so scared to death. On the ground.

"Your Majesty, the West City Gate has been breached. The West City defenders have retreated to the inner city. The Han army is expanding its offensive area. The outer city cannot be defended." The loyal general lay down on the ground, but he still stretched out bloody. "Your Majesty, let's go, let's go, the artillery fire of the Han army is too fierce, we can't resist it."

With a clatter, the raised hands dropped, and the general who tried his best to say these words stared wide and died in a pool of blood on the ground.

"Your Majesty." The gray-haired chief assistant Liu Zhilong tremblingly walked out, kneeling before the steps: "Your Majesty, please make a decision early."

"Decision, what decision?" Lu Chao leaned forward with a smile on his face: "Liu Qing, what decision do you want me to make?"

Liu Zhilong raised his head: "Your Majesty, the general situation is gone, and the manpower is hard to recover. It is Xianyang's plan and the people's plan. Please come down to the Han people! The Han Emperor is lofty, and there has never been a precedent for killing and surrendering people. Please surrender to the Han Emperor. Although it is lost, it can protect the ancestral temple!"

"Jiangshan, Zongmiao?" Lu Chao laughed loudly: "The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. If you lose, you lose more thoroughly? Surrender? Hahaha, yes, surrender, of course you can surrender. After the surrender, you just changed a master, you can still live well and live happily, but I don’t think so. I can surrender to anyone, but I will never surrender to a high place."

Liu Zhilong looked at Lu Chao in amazement: "Your Majesty, you and the Emperor of Han are the acquaintances of the total horns, and have a long-standing relationship. Please surrender to them. With the style of the Emperor of the Han, you will not treat your majesty. For the sake of all things, you have to think about the Queen Mother, and think about the Prince!"

"Your Majesty, please surrender to the Emperor of Han!" In the hall, hundreds of courtiers all fell to their knees. In fact, everyone didn't have this thought in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it. Now Liu Zhilong has opened this head, and everyone is just right. Just go down the donkey and persuade the emperor together.

With a clatter, Lu Chao overthrew the imperial case in front of him, and stood up suddenly, his face was full of anger, "Looking high child, insidious and cunning, I, Lu Chao, would rather be broken to pieces than would be possible to surrender to him, and you, too Don't think about it."

Seeing the courtier who was kneeling down under the steps, he suddenly smiled coldly: "And you can't think about it." He raised his hand and made a gesture to the guards of the palace.

With a choke, the steel knife came out of its sheath, an eagle officer stepped forward and grabbed a young official who was kneeling in front of him like a baby chicken, and wiped the man with a single knife. The neck snapped and threw it on the ground.

The official who fell on the ground had already died, but his body was still convulsing in a pool of blood. The others around him were stunned. It was not until another official was chopped off by a soldier by his neck, and the inside of the hall was blown up.

"The emperor is going to kill us, run!" One jumped up, turned and fled towards the gate. A steel knife came with the cold wind whistling, passing through his chest, and flew him flat, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com fell heavily to the ground.

The screams in the hall are endless. Today, almost all of the people gathered in the hall are civil servants. In front of these eagle soldiers, there is nowhere to parry, and there are occasional generals, and they are rarely resisted. The end of the killing.

Liu Zhilong looked at this **** scene, his lips trembled, "You, are you crazy, are you crazy?"

Gou Yi sneered and walked to Liu Zhilong: "Shoufu, didn't you say that you should be loyal to your majesty and always serve for your majesty? Your majesty is under Jiuquan, and he still left you the position of the first assistant. Please feel free to go on the road. "

With a stab, Liu Zhilong stared blankly at the steel knife that had been inserted between his chest and abdomen, and fell down with a sad smile.

More than a hundred officials were slaughtered in an instant. Looking at the corpses in the hall and the pool of blood, Lu Chao laughed wildly: "No one wants to live. Go right, do your thing! "

Gou Yi knelt down and knocked several heads to Lu Chao: "Your Majesty, take care, the future ministers will still serve your Majesty."

Stand up and say loudly: "Let's go." (To be continued.)
