Zhao Huan did not let Li Gande wait for too long. Only two or three days after Yang Zaixing and Xiao Nuoyan surrounded Yongzhou, Zhao Huan led his army to the outside of Yongzhou city.

After taking a moment to look at the city walls of Yongzhou and the high-hanging no-war sign, Zhao Huan suddenly laughed and said: "Li Qiande is also smart. He was willing to give up Lianzhou and Qinzhou that he had already obtained, and concentrated his troops to defend Yongzhou."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Huan did not give the Monkey Army a chance to go out of the city to fight. Instead, he directly ordered the Zhongshi: "First set up all the artillery brought from the capital and let me blast them."

Is the city too thin? Fill in the moat? Use ladders to attack the city?

It is impossible to fill up the moat, and it is even more impossible to attack the city with ladders.

Anyway, forty artillery pieces were specially brought this time in order to completely eliminate the monkeys. In addition, Yongzhou has been slaughtered by Hong Zhen's grandson. There are no people from the Song Dynasty in the city and outside the city, and naturally there is no one from Zhao Huan. No worries. It just so happens that I can take this opportunity to test the actual combat effectiveness of the artillery.

But there was some hesitation among the commanders, and he bowed and asked, "Should we wait a little longer to inform the officials? There are only forty artillery pieces that have arrived with the Chinese army, and there are not many cannonballs. Why not wait until the rear army arrives?"

Zhao Huan laughed loudly and said: "Use solid bullets and blast them in turn first. Send someone to pass the order to the rear army and ask them to divide into two groups. One way will come to Yongzhou according to the original plan, and the other will go along Yongning. Go down the river, take the left river, and wait for these monkeys at Luowang Cave."

The commander bowed in agreement, and then forty of the most sophisticated artillery pieces in the entire Song Dynasty were pushed out, and he began to speak after arriving at a location within a stone's throw of Yongzhou City.

"preparation!"

"put!"

After countless drills, the newly established artillery team in the Forbidden Army has already become familiar with the operation of artillery. The solid projectiles hit the wall of Yongzhou City with a sharp whistling sound.

After the Song Army's artillery under the city began to speak for the first time, Li Qiande was completely shocked - it could vibrate for hundreds of miles, and the solid iron projectile hit the city wall and shook it. Is this something that should appear in the world?

And Li Changjie even grabbed Xu Baixiang, who was almost stunned by fright, and asked: "Tell me! What on earth is this!?"

Xu Baixiang murmured: "Ignorant people don't know this thing."

"Damn it!"

Li Changjie threw Xu Baixiang away and cursed: "Thankfully you claim to be well-informed and resourceful, but in the end you don't even know the weapons of the Song soldiers!"

Xu Baixiang, who already felt vaguely regretful, but knew in his heart that he had no way out, was about to cry. At this time, facing Li Changjie's scolding, Xu Baixiang could only reluctantly defend himself and said: "I have never heard of such a thing in the imperial court. thing!"

Li Changjie snorted and ignored Xu Baixiang, but bowed to Li Qiande and said: "Your Majesty, are you sending people out of the city to invite a fight? If the Song army is allowed to smash down like this again, I'm afraid that the city wall of Yongzhou will not be able to withstand it?" "

Li Qiande shook his head and said, "Wait a minute. Then the young emperor of the Song Dynasty did this just to give me a power, just like the Song Dynasty's saying of killing a powerful stick?"

Seeing Li Qiande turning his gaze towards him, Xu Baixiang hurriedly smiled and said: "Yes, His Majesty, His Majesty, indeed has such a statement."

Li Qiande nodded and said: "Since it is a killing stick, there is nothing to be afraid of. After a while, this weapon will stop, and the little emperor will definitely send someone to persuade him to surrender. Then we will see him How to say."

Hearing what Li Qiande said, Hong Zhen, Li Changjie, Li Yanghuan and others on the top of the city immediately regained some confidence. Xu Baixiang even sang a hymn with a flattering smile: "Your Majesty's Holy Might, the candle shines thousands of miles away! Zhao Huan is still a baby, how can he succeed in time?" Pass Your Majesty!"

However, the development of things was far beyond Li Qiande's expectation.

The reason why Zhao Huan started shelling the city wall as soon as he came up was because, as Li Gande had guessed, he planned to show off his power first. On the other hand, Zhao Huan never thought about letting the monkeys in Yongzhou City die a good death. Come on. Otherwise, Zhao Huan would have just made people play with flowers from the beginning——

Hundreds of thousands of people! Fifty-eight thousand people were massacred by monkeys in Yongzhou City alone!

As the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, he was derelict in his duty if he failed to protect the people of the Song Dynasty. How could Zhao Huan let these monkeys die comfortably?

First frighten the monkeys out of fear, and then slowly cook them up, allowing the monkeys to experience the horror between life and death first, and then slowly kill the monkeys, allowing them to atone for the crimes they committed in Yongzhou, and also give them Let the innocent people of Yongzhou, Lianzhou and Qinzhou give an account!

When he thought of this, Zhao Huan turned to He Ji and asked, "Is there any news from Lianzhou and Qinzhou?"

He Ji bowed and said: "To inform the officials, the personnel of the Imperial City Division have already gone to Lianzhou and Qinzhou. Once those people are found, they will be dealt with on the spot."

Zhao Huan nodded.

Officials' salaries come from the imperial court, and most of the imperial court's money comes from people's taxes. However, compared with Su Yan in Yongzhou City, Lianzhou and Qinzhou not only failed to fulfill their duties of defending the territory when facing Li Qianshun's monkey army, but also because of the incompetence of these wastes And it caused more than 50,000 people to suffer. Without killing them, there was no way to explain to the people who suffered.

…

After seeing the power of artillery, Li Qiande felt that he had guessed why Xixia was wiped out so quickly - the iron kite was only a flesh and blood body after all, and when it came to this kind of weapon that should not have appeared in the world, even if the iron kite was again No matter how powerful you are, the only way is to drink in the battlefield of hatred.

But after this feeling of waiting for death fell on him, in addition to a deep sense of powerlessness, Li Qiande also felt extremely unwilling and fearful.

After forcing himself to calm down from fear, Li Qiande took another deep breath and said to Xu Baixiang: "Xu Qing, I want to use you as my envoy to go to the Emperor of Song Dynasty, okay?"

Xu Baixiang was so angry that he almost wanted to scold his mother - let me go to see the official? It's his mother's fault! Didn't you see what happened to the man named Li Hong in front of you? Are you planning to let me be made into a human pig? What!

But Xu Baixiang did not have the courage to refuse.

After all, he surrendered voluntarily, and his wife and children also followed Li Qianshun's army. Even though he knew that he would die miserably as long as he accepted this mission, Xu Baixiang still bowed and responded honestly: "Your Majesty, It is an honor for me to serve His Majesty.

It's just...it's just that the little emperor of Song Dynasty is like crazy right now. He neither attacks the city nor sends troops to negotiate, but just smashes the city wall with iron bullets. Even if the ministers are on an envoy, they can't get out of the city gate?"

Hearing what Xu Baixiang said, Li Qianshun couldn't help but frowned and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know how long it will take to fight this powerful killing stick?"
