Seeing this, Du He asked coldly: "Uncle Hou, are you really going to protect Gongsong Zanbu's life today?"
Hou Junji said helplessly: "Du He, if this matter is used well, we can win at least two cities for the Tang Dynasty, countless cattle, sheep, and horses. Your Majesty has already stated that he will stop you at all costs, even if it involves bloodshed."
Du He chuckled: "Your Majesty is really flexible and flexible. Go back and tell him that the city, cattle, sheep, horses, women, and food are not obtained by peace talks, but by defeating them. Since ancient times, there has been no peace talks.
Let’s take the example of resources...Today, I am bound to get Gongsong Zanbu’s head, even if His Majesty is present.”
…
at the same moment.
On the street not far away, a carriage drove quickly.
Sitting on the carriage is the current Right Prime Minister Du Ruhui.
Zhao Yang opened the curtain and took a look, then turned around and said: "Prime Minister Du, we will arrive at the place where Gong Songzanbu lives soon. I hope we can rush there to stop Lantian County from doing stupid things."
Du Ruhui remained calm, suddenly held his forehead and shouted: "Stop, stop..."
The carriage stopped and Zhao Yang hurriedly asked: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Just listen to Du Ruhui say: "It's okay, I have a headache, stop the car immediately, I will rest for a while."
Zhao Yang said anxiously: "But if we go too late, there might be big trouble in Lantian County."
Du Ruhui said with a gloomy look: "What's the trouble? Is that barbarian prince more important than my life?"
Zhao Yang broke into a cold sweat: "Xiang Du, that's not what I meant, I just..."
Du Ruhui waved his hand: "I don't want to talk now, I just want to rest."
A moment ago, Li Er called Du Ruhui to the palace, made a serious explanation, and finally gave Du Ruhui a death order, asking Du Ruhui to rush to the mansion where Gongsong Zanbu lived and stop Du He.
Zhao Yang was also sent to accompany him.
But now, Zhao Yang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Du Ruhui looked lively and energetic, not like someone who had a headache at all.
…
The entrance to Gongsong Zanbu's mansion.
The furniture factory guards and the Imperial Guard are about to come into contact.
Du He shouted loudly: "Retreat, defend!"
The guards quickly retreated, holding their shields in front of them.
Zhang Wei asked in confusion: "Master, why do you want to retreat? What about the Imperial Army? They were defeated by him anyway."
Du He shook his head: "Our brothers will suffer heavy casualties if they face the Forbidden Army. The Forbidden Army far outnumbers us."
Hou Junji and Li Junxian were relieved when they saw Du He stopped.
However, before the two of them could fully react, they heard Du He shouting loudly: "Bring my young master up here."
Everyone was stunned.
Xiaohei?
Is it a dog?
Hou Junji smiled and said: "Du He, it's useless for you to let go of the dog. How can a dog kill Gongsong Zanbu?"
Before he finished speaking, Hou Junji suddenly stopped laughing.
Rumble.
Rumble.
A huge creature that no one had ever seen pushed out from behind.
Hou Junji had never seen anything so ugly and terrifying in his life.
Du He pointed at the behemoth that was as tall as a person and said calmly: "This is Xiao Hei... also known as Cannon!"
What is a cannon?
no one knows.
But looking at the hole as big as a head, combined with Hei Buliuqiu's huge figure with rough workmanship, everyone felt scared invariably.
This is the semi-finished product that Du He and Yuan Tiangang worked on during this period. They spent most of the wootz steel. They originally wanted to test it and make improvements, but Du He couldn't wait any longer.
The workmanship of this cannon is rough, and many parts have not even had time to be polished. The shape looks similar to the red cannon of the Ming Dynasty, and the principles are similar.
On the way here, Du He made preparations.
If the city guard of Chang'an City did not open the door, he would directly use the city tower for experiments.
It was difficult for three horses to drag the cannon.
Now, it was being pushed forward with great difficulty by six bombardiers.
Hou Junji's expression changed drastically and he asked: "Du He, don't do anything random. What do you want to do? If you attack the Forbidden Army, you are treason."
Du He shook his head and asked: "Uncle Hou, let me ask you one last time, will you get out of the way?"
Hou Junji said firmly: "No, this is your Majesty's order."
"Okay, then I won't go in."
Du He rode on the horse, smiled slightly, and said.
This time, both Li Junxian and Hou Junji were fooled.
To enter or not to enter?
Suddenly, I heard Du He yelling.
"Gunner ready!"
Two men hurriedly brought up a box. After opening it, they found huge round cannonballs inside. The two men cooperated with each other to take out one, put it into the bottom of the cannon, and then sealed it, leaving only the lead wire outside.
Du He pointed to the yard in the distance and said, "Adjust!"
Four men hurried forward and adjusted the angle of the muzzle.
Du He shouted: "Fire!"
The lead ignites.
boom.
The cannonball flew out, drew an arc in the air, and fell under the wall in the distance.
There was an explosion.
Smoke and dust are everywhere.
Earth and rocks flew everywhere, hitting everyone.
When the smoke and dust dispersed slightly, everyone discovered that the wall had disappeared out of thin air, as if it had never been there before.
Just listen to Du He's roaring voice: "It's all tilted to the horizon, why don't you do something to the people next to you? Start again, aim, aim!"
The gunners quickly adjusted their angles.
"fire!"
boom.
This time, the shell flew directly into the courtyard.
There was a roar.
Two bloody arms flew out from inside.
Then, bursts of screams came from the yard.
Hou Junji and Li Junxian were both dumbfounded.
Is this a cannon?
Can someone be killed from such a long distance?
Before the two of them could react, they saw three figures suddenly appear at the wall that had just been exploded, and the three of them ran out in dejection.
Du He turned around and saw a guy with a tuft of hair on his head, a big face and small eyes, trying to escape through the gap in the wall, led by two guards.
Du He shouted: "Lu Bu!"
Lu Bu was about to step forward when he saw Hou Junji and Li Junxian taking out their weapons at the same time and rushing forward to stop Lu Bu.
Du He became a little impatient.
At this time, I only heard two whistling noises next to me.
Two arrows were fired at the same time and hit Gongsong Zanbu's back at the same time.
Plop.
Gongsong Zanbu fell to the ground, and when the Imperial Guards rushed over, they discovered that this guy was already dead.
The two arrows that suddenly appeared hit Gongsong Zanbu right in the heart.
Du He turned around and saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old standing on the street, wearing white clothes and holding a well-made pitch black long bow in his hand.
Seeing Du He looking over, the young man smiled and said: "I am Xu Zhengdao. When the road is rough, I will help you. Hiccup..."
This guy was actually drunk, and he even burped. When he spoke, his body was swaying, as if a gust of wind could blow him over.
…
(Fifth update, supporting role [Xu Zhengdao] appears!)
