The roar of cannons and the roar of thousands of bird cannons made the whole world seem to turn into a pot of boiling lime water. The smoke and blood were mixed, making people choke and dare not open their eyes!
The refugee army and the colored stone army were like two trucks at full power, violently colliding together in the center!
At this time, at the top of Luoyang City, Shaofu Wang Zhu Yousong, former Minister of War Lu Weiqi, including Wang Shaoyu, Wang Yinchang, Chen Yongfu, the so-called "knowing soldiers" and "leading troops", were also completely stunned by the scene in front of them!
Yesterday, the Caishi Army's artillery and muskets had left a deep impression on them. They were already afraid to look directly at the Caishi Army's combat power!
But no one could have imagined that today's show had just begun, and the Caishi Army gave them another big surprise!
"My grandma! This, the Duke of Qi's artillery is too sharp! If this continues, even if the refugee army has 500,000 people, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, sooner or later, they will be blasted away by him!" Wang Shaoyu said tightly! She clutched her chest tightly and opened her mouth in disbelief!
In the past, before Liu Ruyi and the Caishi Army came to Luoyang, Wang Shaoyu was still determined to compete with Liu Ruyi!
He is a native of Henan and has been working in the Central Plains official army for many years. His network of relationships is complex and his foundation is not shallow. Although Liu Ruyi is famous all over the world, the so-called "out of sight is out of sight", in the land of China, Many things were just blown out, and Wang Shaoyu never paid too much attention to these rumors about Liu Ruyi!
But at this time, in this place, in this situation, Wang Shaoyu almost wanted to die!
Li Zicheng swept through southern Shaanxi and western Henan in one year, with an army of 500,000 men. Isn't this powerful enough?
But even so, at this moment, isn't he still so overwhelmed by Liu Ruyi that he can't even lift his head?
And although he himself is the commander-in-chief of Henan, his combat strength is only three to five thousand, and most of them are on empty pay. If he relies on these few people to fight against the Caishi Army, he may not even have enough cannon fodder. Come on! It’s not even qualified to serve as an appetizer and stuff it between your teeth!
This, what a fucking fight!
On the side, Shaofu Wang Zhu Yousong also tightly grasped the telescope in his hand, with a dull look on his fat, white face!
Although he was born into a wealthy family and was somewhat aloof from the world, he could still tell the difference between two people fighting, who is stronger and who is weaker, who suffers, and who takes advantage!
At this time, seeing the spearmen of the Caishi Army, under the cover of artillery fire and cannon fire, shouting and rushing out of the trenches, fighting bravely with the refugee army, Zhu Yousong instinctively murmured to himself: "Sharp! It's so sharp! The Duke of Qi really deserves his reputation! It's better now, it's better now! Our city of Luoyang can be saved, it can be saved!"
"Your Majesty, it's windy here, please take care of yourself!"
The New Year's Day is coming soon, which is the coldest time of the year. The cold wind is howling on the top of the city. In addition, Zhu Yousong's fat body is trembling slightly because of his excitement. Several servants who are accompanying him think he has caught a cold and hurriedly He came forward and wanted to help him down!
Zhu Yousong's body shape is almost a replica of his father, Zhu Changxun. If the two of them were put together, they would weigh not 700 pounds, but at least 650 pounds!
One servant can't do it at all, it requires at least three or five people to work together!
"Let me go! Let me go! It's okay for me, it's okay for me! I want to stand here and see with my own eyes the power of Duke Qi!"
Although he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and has been rich and wealthy since childhood, Zhu Yousong is also a man!
Men's admiration for the strong is subconscious and deep in their bones!
At this time, seeing the bravery of the Colored Stone Army, Zhu Yousong was unwilling to leave his eyes for a moment!
When the servants saw this, they did not dare to go against his will. Two people hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and bent their bodies to support him!
"boom……"
There was a loud noise like thunder, and a big black iron egg cracked in the crowd of refugee soldiers. In an instant, more than a dozen people fell on their backs, and blood flowed all over the ground!
Everyone on the top of the city had already accepted the intensity of the battlefield sounds, but this big iron egg was so powerful that everyone couldn't help being frightened!
Warriors like Wang Shaoyu and Wang Yinchang were better off, but Shaofu Wang Zhu Yousong and Lu Weiqi, who was already over sixty years old, couldn't hold on any longer!
Zhu Yousong was frightened and took a few steps back. He suddenly leaned back. If it were not for the support of the servants behind him, he would have turned into a spherical object and rolled directly under the city wall!
On the side, Lu Weiqi was a little better, barely holding on to the city wall with his withered old hands and not falling down, but his heart, liver, spleen and lungs were also shaken to the core!
"Dong Weng, are you okay?" A servant rushed forward and supported Lu Weiqi's body.
"Teacher, the battle ahead is too fierce. Let's retreat first! Your health is important!" A student in green shirt also hurriedly came forward and held Lu Weiqi's other arm.
"Teacher, the Duke of Qi is mighty and the colorful stone army is strong. Today, Li Zicheng will definitely be defeated! Just have disciples here to watch! You'd better go back to your mansion to rest for a while! Take care of yourself!" The other one, who is slightly older, The scholar dressed in white also hurriedly came forward and said to Lu Weiqi respectfully.
This person's name is Zhao Min, the eldest son of the Zhao family, a wealthy businessman in Luoyang City. Due to his fellow villagers, he has been studying Neo-Confucianism under Lu Weiqi since he was a child. Although he has never entered an official position, he has already achieved the title of Juren. If not for this At a time when the world is in chaos, he has already been named on the gold medal list and is one of Lu Weiqi's most proud disciples!
After Zhao Min finished speaking, he bowed respectfully to Lu Weiqi!
Zhao Min is over thirty years old, has a son and a daughter, is mature and prudent in his work, and is extremely knowledgeable. On weekdays, Lu Weiqi relies heavily on him and is willing to listen to Zhao Min's opinions!
These days, most of the local warriors in Luoyang City are under the control of Zhao Wei. They are loyal to the imperial court and fierce resistance against the militia!
But at this time, Lu Weiqi did not listen to his beloved disciple's concerned opinions as before. He shook his head firmly, "Although I am old, my eyes are not old yet! Today, I want to see with my own eyes that Duke Qi is here. Under the city of Luoyang, the thief Li Zicheng is killed!"
"Teacher, this..."
Zhao Min still wanted to say something, but Lu Weiqi waved his hand firmly, "Min'er, don't try to persuade me! Come on, come and support me as a teacher, and you guys all come forward. Today, we will I want to be here and watch with my own eyes as Duke Qi restores our reputation in the Ming Dynasty!"
When the five or six disciples on the side heard Lu Weiqi's words, they did not dare to cower behind, and hurriedly came to the front and stood in a row!
Lu Weiqi couldn't help but nodded happily, and couldn't help chanting loudly, "All the nations are in conquest, the beacon fire is in the mountains. The corpses are piled up with grass and trees, and the rivers are bleeding. Where is the happy land? I dare not stay in Panhuan! I abandon the room.
The collapse of your body will destroy your lungs and liver! Duke of Qi, Duke of Qi, if I have the chance, I will definitely give you a toast!"
"Teacher, there will be a chance! There will definitely be a chance!" Zhao Min burst into tears when he heard his mentor recited Du Fu's "Farewell to the Elderly" and hurriedly comforted him softly.
Lu Weiqi nodded happily, and an inexplicable hope suddenly flashed in his wrinkled brows!
Daming has really been weak for too long!
"Hmph~~! Poor! What kind of scholar do you claim to be? In my opinion, he is just a villain who is better at flattering others!" Wang Shaoyu couldn't bear it anymore and couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
"What did you say? You despicable villain!" Zhao Min had very sharp ears. Although he was a few steps away, he heard Wang Shaoyu's dirty words clearly!
Wang Yinchang also heard it, and couldn't help but said angrily: "Wang Shaoyu, what do you mean? Lu Weng is my senior scholar, Taishan Beidou, how can I tolerate you being so wanton and insulting!"
"Huh! What did I say? Whoever has a secret in his heart knows it himself! Did I say something wrong? Liu Ruyi is just a despicable person! There are so many hungry people in the city, they are all the people of Ming Dynasty, but he let his subordinates go alone
Is it humane to wantonly kill people? I, the Ming Dynasty, have always governed the country with benevolence! Even if we get to the emperor, will he still be reasonable?"
Wang Shaoyu was not afraid of the gazes of Zhao Min and Wang Yinchang and sneered.
Although they were both trapped in the 'urn', Wang Shaoyu, Zhao Min and Wang Yinchang had not been getting along for a long time. At this time, when they saw their rival Liu Ruyi showing off his power, while the people around him were still 'shameless' and 'croaking',
How could Wang Shaoyu endure the endless praise?
Although he knew that he was no match for Liu Ruyi, he, Duke Qi, still had to let people talk, right?
At this point, Wang Shaoyu also said, "A dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water!"
"Wang Shaoyu, you bastard, even if I say you are a despicable villain, I have elevated you! Luoyang is in crisis, but you don't want to do anything, but instead wantonly deprive the soldiers of food and salary! At this time, the Duke of Qi came from afar to fight to the death with the refugee army and rush to help.
People of Luoyang! But you are still making sarcastic remarks here, you~~~, what are your intentions?"
Wang Yinchang was Liu Ruyi's younger brother. At this time, when he saw that Wang Shaoyu dared to slander his master like this, he naturally retorted loudly!
"Okay, my Lord Participating in Politics! You are great, you are all great! Can't you afford to offend someone like me? Why don't you go hug Liu Ruyi's thick legs! Where is the need to care about the court? Where is the need to care about the emperor?
?Why should I care about the country and the country that have lasted for three hundred years during the Ming Dynasty?"
Wang Shaoyu laughed self-deprecatingly, as if he was the only loyal and courageous man in the world who cared about the country and the people!
Zhao Min's expression became extremely gloomy, "Wang, you know what dirty things you have done yourself! If you dare to be here again and disrupt the morale of our army, don't blame Zhao for being rude!"
The Zhao family is a wealthy family in Luoyang City, with a net worth of tens of millions. At this time, Zhao Min has seven or eight hundred elite soldiers under his command, but he really doesn't fear Wang Shaoyu, a down-and-out military officer!
"Haha~~! What's going on? Uncle Zhao, are you going to take the head of my king? Come on! Come on! It's not a pity for my king to die, but you want the emperor and the court to see this.
What kind of people are there in Luoyang City! When did you ever take the country of Ming Dynasty seriously?" Wang Shaoyu laughed even more unscrupulously!
"You~~~!" Zhao Min and Wang Yinchang couldn't bear it anymore and were about to take action!
On the side, Lu Weiqi waved his hand calmly, "Man'er, Wang, don't be impulsive when you participate in politics! The pure will be pure by themselves, and the dirty will be dirty by themselves! Why should you be as knowledgeable as a villain? Look over there, the refugee army seems to be increasing again.
