Dragon Ball, while crossing the heavens and the world

Regarding the rise of Luo Yan, Song, Jin and Liao had different reactions.

The letter from Emperor Tianzuo of Liao Kingdom was delivered to Luo Yan.

In the letter, Emperor Tianzuo was trying his best to win over Luo Yan, promising gold and silver, high officials and generous salaries, kings and beauties.

Emperor Tianzuo even said that if Luo Yan could help him restore his country, he would be willing to give Luo Yan half of his country and manage all the Han people in his Liao Kingdom.

Luo Yan completely distrusted this kind of emperor who always said that he would give away half of his country. He was so insincere that he was lying to a three-year-old child.

Before even reading the letter, Luo Yan burned it to ashes.

He said to the envoy of the Liao Kingdom: "Go and tell your emperor that half of the country does not need to be sent away by him. Sooner or later, I will restore the Han and Tang Dynasties and unify this disputed world. Your Liao Kingdom is just waiting to be destroyed!"

The envoy was furious and wanted to say something, but Luo Yan waved his sleeve and made him disappear in an instant.

This is the transfiguration object in the Ruyi Treasure Book. This spell can not only transfer food from afar, but can also transfer people.

It's just that this kind of transfer does not arrive instantly across space, but by flying.

In other words, Luo Yan's technique would transfer the envoy to Emperor Tian Zuo's military camp, and the envoy would have to fly hundreds of kilometers in the sky against the cold wind.

As for whether the messenger froze to death after landing, that is none of Luo Yan's business.

After dealing with the Liao envoy, Luo Yan began to look at the city wall of Daming Mansion in front of him.

Daming Mansion was the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, and its city was far inferior to that of Junzhou.

The entire Daming Prefecture is 120 miles from east to west, 360 miles from north to south, and only 280 miles south to Yifeng County, Kaifeng Prefecture.

After capturing Daming Mansion, we can drive straight into Kaifeng Mansion and defeat Song Ting.

The defensive strength of such an important city should be sufficient.

But in fact, Daming Mansion has a population of one million, and the army guarding the city wall is less than 2.

There should be a large number of Xiang troops here, but they are nowhere to be seen.

The reason is very simple. Next to Junzhou is Liyangjin. To reach Damingfu, you must use this ferry.

In order to prevent Luo Yan from crossing the river, Xu Churen sent He Guan to mobilize heavy troops to guard the ferry.

But how did he know that Luo Yan's soldiers could fly and could cross the Yellow River at any random section of the river.

Xu Churen is still too old-fashioned. He still doesn't believe that Luo Yan is a god descending to earth, and he doesn't believe that his subordinates can fly.

He is the kind of traditional Confucian scholar who would never say anything about Luo Yan and his army until he saw it with his own eyes.

There were many such officials in the Song Dynasty.

Even though each of the Jin Yu disciples had demonstrated magic, many court officials still thought they were magicians.

But it’s not to blame these officials for their stubbornness. It’s actually the spells performed by Zhang Xubai and the others that are sometimes not as exciting as the magic tricks performed by the Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhang Xubai spits water and fire, and he can do magic tricks as well. He can even pour water from an empty bowl and pass through walls at will.

Zhang Xubai can fly, which is nothing. The juggler can also perform the fairy rope, using a hemp rope to reach the sky. People can climb to the sky along the rope and pick peaches from the sky.

Jugglery and magic are not new to modern times. There were professional jugglers as early as the Han Dynasty.

Huang Gong of Donghai is equivalent to Liu Qian of the Han Dynasty.

It was precisely because of seeing too many tricks and seeing too many swindlers bewitching kings that many officials rationally did not believe that there were immortals in the world. Xu Churen, a capable minister and official, was one of them. Even he did not believe that Kou Zhen turned into a city god and a king. Luo Yan's fighting style.

His mentality is just like the elites of later generations who have received advanced education in mathematics, physics and chemistry and do not believe in feudal superstition. Even if they see it with their own eyes, they will think it is a trick. They must find the flaws and explain it with their own logic and concepts.

Xu Churen's stubbornness is not wrong, but now that his stubbornness has caused the army to be transferred away from Daming Mansion, it is very wrong.

Luo Yan's troops came to the city and cast his magic on the sky and the earth. Behind him, the iron eagle warriors flew up to the sky and the earth.

Seeing the iron eagle warriors falling from the sky, seeing Luo Yan revealing his true form and holding various vicious weapons, Xu Churen stood at the top of the city and was dumbfounded.

"Master, there really are ghosts and gods in this world!"

Xu Churen's worldview completely collapsed at this moment.

Gushu

Even the officials looked like this, and none of the soldiers standing on the wall guarding the city still had fighting spirit.

In addition, some soldiers also heard that after Junzhou was captured, Luo Yan hardly killed any people except for some heinous people. He not only gave preferential treatment to the surrendered soldiers, sent them back to their hometowns, but even divided the fields among the local people.

Surrender, your life is safe, and you still have a share of the land. Is there anything better than this in the world?

Many people were shaken and even secretly looked at Xu Churen, wondering whether they should cut off the chief's head and open the city gate to welcome the Lotus Boy.

With people's hearts restless, Xu Churen sensed something was wrong, and quickly asked his soldiers to send a supervising team to the city wall to stabilize people's hearts.

Regardless of whether Xu Churen still has the will to fight and whether he can defeat Luo Yan, as an official of the Song Dynasty, Xu Churen needs to be loyal to the king. Even if the gods really rebel, he is not willing to give up the Daming Mansion and become the eternal legacy of the Song Dynasty. sinner.

One by one, the ferocious war supervisors climbed onto the city wall. These war supervisors were all descendants of the local tycoons and squires in Daming Mansion.

When they heard about the fate of the local tycoons in Junzhou and knew that Luo Yan was going to judge them for their past sins and divide their land, they were very frightened and frightened. They spontaneously organized their thugs and servants and branched off their children to help Xu Churen defend the city.

With these guys who used to run rampant in the countryside and had a lot of power to supervise the team, some of the city's defenders became more honest.

The mutiny that Xu Churen was worried about was suppressed for the time being, but he did not dare to stay on the city wall anymore. He quickly retreated to the inner wall, and was then surrounded by a group of gentry and gentry.

"Xu Gong, you must guard Daming Mansion. The lives of my whole family are counting on you."

"Xu Gong, I would like to donate fifty shi of food. Please Xu Gong please don't let the thieves enter the city."

"I am also willing to donate fifty stones of food, and I will send thirty servants to help you defend the city."

The gentry, who were usually extremely stingy, finally donated money and materials enthusiastically when faced with the crisis of the city being destroyed and liquidated, but this amount was laughable.

For example, the person who first proposed to donate food was willing to donate fifty dan of food.

Fifty shi of grain was considered too much. In the Song Dynasty, one shi was equal to 59.2 kilograms. His donation of fifty shi was equivalent to a donation of nearly [-] kilograms of grain.

But this man is a famous grain merchant in Daming Prefecture. He relies on the Yellow River to traffic grain. One ship of grain weighs more than ten tons. The three tons of grain he donated are not even a fraction of his caravan's monthly cargo volume. arrive.

Although Xu Churen was a little displeased that these gentry were still so stingy even when the disaster was approaching, he still looked moved on the surface and promised to defend Daming Mansion in front of everyone.

Then, just as Xu Churen finished his promise, a huge explosion came from the outer city.

The explosion caused the ground to shake. Xu Churen and several old gentry almost lost their balance and fell to the ground.

"What happened, Xu Jia, Xu Jia, go see what happened in the outer city."

Xu Churen had a bad premonition in his heart and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to investigate the information.

However, before the soldier named Xu Jia took action, a black mass of steel warriors appeared on the inner city wall of Daming Mansion.

It was the Iron Eagle warriors under Luo Yan who occupied the inner city.

Their steel armor was blazing with flames, and the soldiers were suspended in the sky one by one, like heavenly soldiers and generals, making people unable to think of resistance.

"The city wall of Daming Mansion has been broken. All soldiers who surrender immediately will not be killed!"

"Surrender without killing, surrender without killing!"

The roar of Chuanying echoed in the sky. The soldiers on the city wall only hesitated for a few seconds, then dropped their weapons and fell to their knees one by one.

Soldier Xu Jia said anxiously: "Master, don't look any further. The thieves must have used firearms to break through the city wall. Now that they have occupied the city wall, the defense of the city has failed. Master, you'd better run for your life!"

Xu Churen was confused, looking at the iron eagle warrior in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

The gentry who had gathered around him before were all scurrying away and disappearing in a flash.

"Why did they attack so fast?" The calm light in Xu Churen's eyes disappeared. He had failed to live up to the emperor's expectations and lost the Daming Mansion. He fell into incomparable self-blame and had the will to die in his heart.

He looked at Xu Jia's waist sword and thought of committing suicide with his sword, so that everything would be over.

Xu Churen fiercely stretched out his hand to snatch Xu Jia's waist knife. Xu Jia was horrified and quickly stopped him: "Master, what are you doing!"

"I am ashamed of Your Majesty. I lost the Daming Mansion, and the thieves could go straight to Kaifeng Mansion. I ruined the Song Dynasty, so what dignity do I have while I'm alive!"

Xu Jia was stupid and couldn't think of how to persuade the master. He only fought with Xu Churen for the waist knife. Both of them were disheveled and embarrassed.

At this time, a majestic giant stepped into the city and made a sound like thunder and landslide: "Where is Xu Churen?"
