When Li Mingshun arrived at the palace, it was already much calmer. There were guards standing guard near the collapsed courtyard wall, and there were people at the gate waiting for Li Mingshun's arrival.
"General, His Majesty is very angry and unstable. You must be careful what you say when you meet." A waiter reminded Li Mingshun as he led him to where Zhao Kai was.
Li Mingshun's face was ugly, and he walked step by step. He knew that he had messed up things again this time, and there was a high probability that he would bear the wrath of His Majesty the Emperor soon.
But he was indeed unjust, because he really tried his best. The air defense posts everywhere did not call the police, and no one even saw any aircraft or other aircraft.
What do you think he should do in this situation? The Imperial Capital of the Great China Empire has more than 100 fighter jets responsible for air defense. The alert level has been increased since Zhao Yu fled to Fengjiang, but most of these aircraft do not know how to intercept them.
, the palace suffered a disaster.
As the commander of the air defense force, Li Mingshun must rush over to meet Zhao Kai as soon as possible, but in fact no one knows whether such attacks will continue.
The air raid sirens have been sounding all the time, and we don't know when they will stop. Many people in the imperial capital have already fled the city, and the rest can only be in fear.
The power of the two cloud blast bombs was so terrifying that even 400 meters away from the center of the explosion, the walls collapsed due to the vibration.
The wall of the prime minister's residence was like this. It was destroyed in the earthquake. The prime minister was also frightened when he heard that he was bedridden until now.
Seemingly concerned about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor, the prime minister sent his two sons into the palace to visit, but they did not see Zhao Kai.
After the fuel of the cloud bomb was ignited, it burned everything near the center of the explosion, leaving no one alive within 200 meters.
Those who were directly shocked to death were simply the lucky ones, and a large number of corpses were burned to a pitch black color. People in the buildings were suffocated to death due to lack of oxygen. The two destroyed places were simply a purgatory on earth.
The people who went to deal with these corpses were vomiting non-stop. Because it involved the palace, they did not dare to mobilize foreign troops to handle the operation. Therefore, many palace servants were forced to carry the corpses, which made them extremely painful.
.
However, living is better than death after all. They looked at the companions they knew lying unscathed in the building, feeling both happy and scared.
To be honest, who knows whether the weapons used by the other party will explode... They found some fragments at the scene that were not palace objects, some even as big as an arm.
Those were the remains of some missile casings. They were collected and placed on a piece of white satin on one side. On the other side were corpses, hundreds of corpses.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Li Mingshun came to the entrance of an underground bunker in the Imperial Palace of the Dahua Empire. The place was filled with guards and maids with different looks, and the gathering of whispering voices made the place seem extremely noisy.
.
When several palace guard captains who were smoking saw Li Mingshun, they immediately threw away their cigarette butts and stood at attention to salute. Li Mingshun was not in the mood to talk to them, so he walked down the steps.
The lights hanging on the wall were extremely dim, and the steps under my feet went all the way down, and then leveled off more than ten meters underground.
In fact, this underground bunker is not qualified. Its depth is obviously not enough. However, a large amount of reinforced concrete was used during its construction, so it must be very strong.
Unfortunately, if there really is a cloud bomb, or a powerful ground-penetrating bomb hits here directly, the people hiding inside may not be spared.
This is a corridor that is not very spacious. It is still full of people of all kinds, including officers of the Imperial Guard, nervous-looking court officials, and a few imperial doctors talking in the corner.
"General Li Mingshun is here!" The waiter at the door at the end of the corridor sang loudly as soon as he saw Li Mingshun. Then he opened the door and let Li Mingshun walk in.
When Li Mingshun saw Zhao Kai, Zhao Kai had already changed a set of clothes. Although he had cleaned up, the condition was still miserable.
His head was injured, so it was wrapped with a bandage. His shoulder was actually injured, so half of his upper body was naked, and the other half was also bandaged.
The most conspicuous thing was his leg. The royal doctor and the best doctor he could find in the city helped him reattach the broken bones. At this moment, the leg was already covered with a plaster.
This is really thanks to the medical contribution of the Datang Empire. With the increasing number of graduates from the Medical College of the Tang Empire, the technological progress in medical technology around the world is obvious to all.
If it had been in the past, Zhao Kai's injuries might have resulted in direct death from tetanus or infection. Even the broken leg might have killed Zhao Kai.
But now, at least in the Imperial Capital, there are still a few capable people who have studied modern medicine and can help Zhao Kai treat his wounds.
"Your Majesty!" Li Mingshun didn't know what to say. As soon as he saw him, he knelt down and prostrated himself in front of Zhao Kai's bed.
Originally, he only heard that Zhao Kai was injured on the road, but he did not expect that Zhao Kai's condition was worse than he had previously estimated.
So he blamed himself deeply, with tears already welling up in his eyes: "I am incompetent! I deserve death for my crime!"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Kai did not blame him. In other words, at this moment, Zhao Kai no longer had the experience to scold Li Mingshun. He just said softly: "Step back, I am tired and need to rest."
Li Mingshun wanted to say something else, but when he saw Zhao Kai lying on the bed, he could only lower his head and remain silent, stood up and left.
After returning to the corridor, Li Mingshun had time to look at the crowd around him. He recognized Shen Chuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, and several other ministers.
"How is your majesty?" Seeing Li Mingshun come out, someone came up and asked. Li Mingshun said that your majesty was in good condition, dismissed him, and walked to several ministers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How are you, Prime Minister?" Li Mingshun looked at Chu Muzhou's eldest son and asked. Chu Muzhou's eldest son immediately replied: "My father has been
He was frightened, his body was hot, and he couldn't move, so he could only let me and the others come to pay his respects to His Majesty."
"Thank you for your hard work, both of you." After Li Mingshun said to Chu Muzhou's two sons, he looked at Jiang Run who was standing aside.
"Is the ambassador of the Tang Empire...still in the city?" Li Mingshun asked, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jiang Run glanced at Li Mingshun and immediately explained the situation briefly: "The other party is still in the city...and someone deliberately submitted a statement to us. They have only sold two missiles so far. If we persist in our obsession, they will
Sell more weapons of the same type to Toyue."
"Missile?" Hearing a new word, Li Mingshun looked confused. He didn't know what a missile was, or even what the two words missile were - maybe he could guess the word "missile", but this missile
He really couldn't guess the word.
However, when Li Mingshun heard that the Tang Empire only sold two such bombs, he was somewhat relieved.
If there are a large number of such missiles, it is really a fatal thing. They don't know when to evade, because the other party may not be so kind and notify Dahua in advance next time they attack.
Jiang Run nodded and said again what he had just explained to Shen Chuan: "Yes, they call the new weapon a missile. It is not a bomber, but an ultra-long-range attack weapon that cannot be intercepted."
"Could this be a bluff?" Li Mingshun asked again subconsciously.
"Witnesses saw the falling black shadow. It was not an ordinary bomb, it was much faster than the bomb... Moreover, when those two things fell, there was no plane in the sky. Using the intelligence analysis we know now
, That thing is indeed impossible to intercept." Shen Chuan said with an ugly face.
He is really about to "go down in history". He is almost the first Minister of War to have the imperial capital attacked in hundreds of years.
Moreover, in the future, there is no telling how many such "missiles" will fall, which will make him even more embarrassed if they land in the imperial capital.
"Witnesses? Are there many?" Li Mingshun was stunned after hearing this, and then asked immediately. He felt that if there were many witnesses, there might be some other clues.
As Minister of War, Shen Chuan received some reports when he came: "At least tens of thousands of people saw it... At that time, many people crowded near the city gate. Some people exclaimed, and everyone looked up and saw the falling black shadow.
.”
However, he didn't know much information. Ordinary people only heard the explosion, and then saw the fire, and the falling black shadow trailing the flames.
Many people have seen these things, so the testimonies are surprisingly consistent. But the problem is that such testimonies can only show that the things fell from the sky, and there is no other intelligence help.
Li Mingshun confirmed again: "In other words, we really have no way to defend ourselves against this weapon?"
"That's what the Ambassador of the Tang Empire said." Jiang Runshangshu believed the statement from the Tang Empire - at least until now, the Tang Empire is still very honest when advertising its weapons...
…
Li Mingshun gritted his teeth, stared at Jiang Run and asked, "Isn't he afraid of death?"
Now he really wants to arrest all those bastards related to the Tang Empire and execute them to calm the people and repay the emperor's favor.
Jiang Run naturally knew that the person he was asking was an envoy from the Tang Empire, so he could only reassure him: "He is protected by law, general. If we attack him rashly, the Tang Empire may not be polite to us."
"
Hearing Jiang Run's statement, Li Mingshun immediately sneered twice: "They are no longer polite to us."
