This time, there was no need for Liu Chenggui to endorse him, so the guards chose to obey without hesitation.
The palace guards and eunuchs were called out from their hiding places by several guards, and they returned to the watchtower tremblingly, to the top of the city and on the horse's face. I thought that next, they might have to use their flesh and blood to withstand the next round.
Fire and Thunder Crossbow, however, was shocked to find that the rebels had stopped shooting.
"The rebels don't have many fire and thunder crossbows, so they have to use them sparingly!" Liu Chenggui quickly returned to the enemy tower with the support of two confidants. As he said this, he sneered and shook his head. "Cheer up, I'm here.
He obeyed the command of the Korean Embassy. He donated gunpowder and fire thunder to the officials. When it comes to playing with gunpowder, he is the ancestor of the rebellious gang outside the city!"
"Hahaha..." The guards and eunuchs laughed arrogantly. They deeply agreed with Liu Chenggui's statement.
"Han Ambassador, I'll give you this sword. It was given to me by the officials. It's not a Shang Fang sword. However, whoever dares to disobey your order, kill him with this sword and make sure no one will hold him accountable!" Liu Chenggui!
If he didn't do anything, he just gave Han Qing the sword in his hand.
Han Qing smiled and gently pushed the sword back with his hand, "You should just hold it by yourself. I think you will be able to use it right away. I think King Yong just wanted to establish his authority with the four rounds of fire and thunder crossbows."
"Li Wei? He wants to scare me?" Liu Chenggui was doubtful and looked outside the city with a frown.
The rockets under the city were either completely burned out or doused with water. However, the rebels did not immediately launch a second round of attack.
A little further away, dozens of crossbow carts were arranged in three tiers. Countless cattle and draft horses were being driven by the God Guard soldiers, pulling out the crossbow strings to facilitate the reloading of the crossbow carts.
"Dong dong dong dong dong dong..." The sound of war drums suddenly sounded, reaching the city gate close to the ground, and then climbed up to the enemy tower along the city gate.
Accompanied by the sound of drums, the rebels separated like a tide. A carriage the size of a house and covered with platinum, pulled by eight horses, slowly drove towards Xuandemen.
Two rows of soldiers in heavy armor followed slowly behind the carriage. They held long swords side by side, and the sunlight reflected on the blades and blades was dazzling and cold.
"It's King Yong!" Several of the guards had good eyesight and immediately recognized the identity of the car owner. They gritted their teeth angrily. "This guy knows how to put on a show. If he has the ability to go to the north bank of the Yellow River to show off, why are you pretending to be a big deal here!"
"That's right, the Four Wise Kings and the Four Wise Kings are being shouted at every day. But they are the cowards who stab their own brother in the back!"
"What are you doing here? If you can't conquer the imperial city, are you going to attack it with your mouth?"
…
Discussions immediately broke out at the top of the city. Most of the palace guards and eunuchs sneered at the ostentation deliberately put on by King Yong.
But the atmosphere outside the city was completely different. All the soldiers in heavy armor suddenly bowed in unison and shouted, "Long live, long live, long live!"
Immediately afterwards, all the soldiers of the Divine Guard in the distance bowed down and shouted at the top of their lungs, "Long live, long live, long live, long live!"
"Shameless! Zhao Yuanfen, are you worthy of His Majesty Taizong and the officials by doing this?" Liu Chenggui had personally experienced the Chenqiao mutiny, and he looked down upon King Yong's actions. He pointed at the platinum carriage and cursed loudly.
However, his voice was swallowed up by the tide of long live sounds, and not a trace reached the city, let alone the ears of King Yong.
Amidst the "Long Live" sound like a landslide and tsunami, the carriage continued to move forward slowly. Finally, it stopped 280 steps away from Xuandemen. A guard in iron armor stepped forward to open the door and put down the wooden door.
stairs, and then a wide shield wall was quickly erected in front of the car.
King Yong Zhao Yuanfen wore a gorgeous robe and walked slowly down the stairs. He first came to the shield wall, looked around, stretched out his hand to push away the guard holding the shield, and strode out.
Some of his close associates tried to persuade him, but he pushed them away with his hands. He walked forward for more than 130 steps with his head high and chest high, and was almost within the effective range of two stone bows. He finally stopped with his feet. Then, he was angry.
He calmly nodded towards the enemy tower and said, "People on the top of the city, listen, please come out and speak to Liu Douzhi. I have a few things that I need to clarify to him personally."
At this moment, even if Liu Chenggui looked down on King Yong, he could not lose to him in terms of momentum. Therefore, he stood up straight from the battlements and responded loudly toward the outside of the city: "I am right here, Your Highness, are you there?"
Whatever you say, just say it directly. However, I advise you not to make up any excuses to deceive me. Otherwise, it will damage your former reputation!"
"Bitch, you are just a eunuch. Who gave you the courage to call yourself me in front of King Yong!" A general immediately stood up next to Zhao Yuanfen and rebuked Liu Chenggui loudly.
I thought that exposing Liu Chenggui's shortcomings would dampen his arrogance. Unexpectedly, Liu Chenggui shook his head nonchalantly after hearing this, "Well said, I am indeed a eunuch, and I shouldn't be arrogant in front of His Highness. However, I am a eunuch.
, You know that if your brothers rebel against the enemy, they will definitely gain the advantage of the enemy. Your Highness and you are taking advantage of the official campaign to fight against the Liao dogs to cause chaos in Bianliang City. Aren't you worse than eunuchs?!"
After a pause, his voice suddenly turned high, "Since you are not even as good as an eunuch, why am I not qualified to call myself an old man in front of you?"
"Yes, we are all eunuchs, and we still know how to be loyal to our country. You have that thing, but you only have the courage to stab your own people in the back!"
"We are eunuchs and serve the officials of the Song Dynasty. King Yong colluded with the Liao bandits and exterminated himself in the Song Dynasty. How can he have the dignity to ask us to be respectful to him?"
…
At this moment, eunuchs accounted for the majority at Xuande Gate. When they heard someone talking about Liu Chenggui's physical disability, they all stepped forward and spoke loudly to Liu Chenggui.
The general had no idea that by attacking Liu Chenggui, he would stir up such a big hornet's nest. Suddenly, his face turned red and green, changing all the time.
Youxin stepped forward to talk a few more words to regain the place. However, his body was gently stopped by Yongwang Zhao Yuanfen with his arm.
"General Chu, there is no need to engage in unnecessary verbal disputes." Zhao Yuanfen was unreliable in his actions, but his demeanor on the surface was extraordinary. He first smiled and ordered the general, then raised his head again and looked at him.
Liu Chenggui shouted, "Liu Duzhi, you have served the two emperors Taizu and Taizong, and I have always respected you. That's why I came forward in person today to tell you a few words. I have no intention of treason at all."
I mean, the troops and horses were mobilized last night to prevent any unexpected events. After all, before the imperial brother's personal expedition, he handed over Bianliang City and even the entire Gyeonggi area to me to stay and guard. But last night, someone actually used the guise of Kaifeng Mansion to openly
He is harboring a traitor who is secretly plotting against the Liao Kingdom. I was worried that he would take the opportunity to cause trouble, so I had no choice but to order the Divine Guards to blockade the inner city!"
"I see, then why did Your Highness want to attack the Imperial City again? Could it be that those siege equipment and the crossbows that were fired at the Imperial City were just put out to bask in the sun?" Liu Chenggui did not believe a single word of King Yong's lies and was decisive.
Sound rebuttal.
"That's because those who harbor the traitors have entered the imperial city." King Yong Zhao Yuanfen was well prepared and immediately shouted out the words he had recited more than once beforehand. "That's because those who harbor the traitors have entered the imperial city."
You are a clever talker and good at deceiving. I am worried that I will know that you and the palace guards will be taken advantage of. That is because my queen mother, sister-in-law and nephew are all in the imperial city. I must establish my authority in order to let you.
Those who harbor traitors are afraid; that is because those who harbor traitors are demons who have been reincarnated and endured calamities. Wherever they pass, rivers of blood are destined to flow..."
