Chapter 1206 Twelve Hours in Luoyang (2)

Although he had been in the Tang Dynasty for many years, Yun Chu still couldn't understand that the people of the Tang Dynasty, who had experienced so many wars, famines, plagues, hunger and diseases, always died.

Just like tonight's killing, those who died must be the strongest, bravest, and smartest people in the Tang Dynasty. If this scale of killing the elites of the tribe falls on a tribe in the Western Region, that tribe will soon There is absolutely no doubt that it will disappear in the long river of history.

In view of this, Yunchu could only think that there were too many talented people in the Tang Dynasty, so many that they had become a nuisance and needed Qingli.

Come to think of it.

At this moment, there are just one Yun family and countless talented people who are busy non-stop.

Yun Chu stayed in the study to play chess with the foreign woman who was spying on his beauty, and listened to the news Yin Erhu heard from outside.

His wife Yu Xiurong was beating a military drum, covering up the sounds of battle not far away with a loud sound.

His daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law were fighting each other.

His eldest son walked around restlessly on the roof like a giant cat, with the sword on his waist unsheathed and retracted, eager to fight.

His youngest son was feeding the most noble princess of the Tang Dynasty like a fool, so that he could keep her by his side. If there was any disagreement, he could use this princess as a human shield to protect him and escape.

Cui Yao, the tutor, wears a wide underskirt. If something goes wrong, she can tear off the underskirt in an instant, revealing the powerful clothing underneath. Under the tightly wrapped clothing, there is soft armor next to the body.

With another summons, her maid would immediately present her with the powerful crossbow, quiver, and six gunpowder shells with terrifying explosive power that she was used to.

Together with the two armed maids who have been with her for more than ten years, such an armed group can ensure that she can take several women and children out of danger without any difficulty.

His pock-marked groom, along with four thin but extremely capable grooms, had been guarding a long and narrow carriage. The carriage was being pulled by four majestic, beast-like armored war horses.

As long as the wife, the two young ladies at home, and the young master enter the carriage, the flower wall in front of the carriage will move to both sides, and the carriage can run rampant in Luoyang City.

Outside the flower wall, one hundred fully armed retainers each had two war horses behind them. The retainers were as quiet as a mountain, but the war horses were anxiously pawing the ground with their hooves. It was obvious that this was a sign that they had nowhere to vent their energy.

Behind the wall in front of the knight, the sound of hawking could be heard constantly. There was a bustling street, and a fat woman selling yellow paper was still playing with it without arrogance or arrogance. Even though no one paid attention to the goods in front of her all night The goods are just looking at the endless flow of people, as if they are actively waiting for the target customers.

"Huan Yanfan, a bachelor of Hongwen Hall, was beheaded in the light."

Yunchu heard the news coming from the window and sighed and said to Jin Yuru: "It's a pity. Although there are many capable people around the queen, this person is definitely one of them. Three years ago, this person's "Admonition to Eliminate Alchemists and Offer Wine to the Son of the Nation" "Music" is very popular with me, and now it has become a masterpiece."

Jin Yiru said: "He is not a good person, his family in Jinzhou can be called bullies."

Yun Chu put a black stone on the chessboard and said, "No one is perfect. Even if he kills all his bully family, he is still a sincere gentleman."

Jin Yuru pulled open the hem of her clothes and said, "The queen was planning to do this, but she was too soft-hearted and couldn't bear to leave her clan members, so she ended up with a violent death."

Yun Chu took a look at the content inside Jin Yuru's clothes and said strangely: "It wasn't so spectacular when I was in school."

Jin Yiru said resentfully: "If you had less punches on my chest back then, I should have looked better."

Yun Chu pondered for a moment and said, "You must have been tortured terribly by the Queen back then."

Jin Yiru lowered her eyes and whispered: "Giving your body to the emperor is the thing I hate the most in my life."

"Why, the emperor is not brave in bed?"

Jin Yiru looked up at Yun Chu and said sadly: "Why must the gentleman humiliate me?"

Yun Chu put down the chess piece in his hand, wiped his handle and said: "The King of Silla is still drifting overseas and refuses to surrender, and the Silla people are still unwilling to change their customs and call themselves Tang people... So, Jin Yuru, you have suffered everything in your life. No suffering deserves sympathy.

If you think that this kind of cannibalism among the Tang people will weaken the Tang Dynasty, you are wrong. The prince is a man who understands farming. If the seedlings in the fields are too thick, it will affect the harvest. Therefore, thinning out the seedlings is a matter of course. things. "

Jin Yuru said: "The people of Silla just want to remember the lives of their ancestors."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Don't you forget the late king?"

Jin Yuru added: "We also want to enter Chang'an."

Yunchu said nonchalantly: "Come on."

"You won't kill them?"

"Chang'an's goal is to become the King of Ten Thousand Cities. As long as your people come to Chang'an and abide by the law, they are Chang'an people."

When Jin Yuru wanted to further ask Yunchu for a guarantee, there was another voice outside the window.

"Liu Yuzhi, a member of Zhongshushe, died on the spot."

Yun Chu was surprised when he heard this: "Death in battle?"

The person outside the window responded quickly: "Liu Yuzhi is very skilled in martial arts. The Qianniu Guards under the Queen's command killed two generals before killing him."

Yun Chu turned to Jin Manru and said, "This guy is a very good person. I have seen him in the East Palace before. He has been working for Duke Ying. Last year, I heard that he had completed six volumes of "Stories of Duke Wenzhen" and said that he would complete the compilation of four volumes of "Stories of Duke Yingzhenwu" this year. I don't know if he has finished it."

Jin Manru shook her head and said, "He has not finished it. It can even be said that the later "Stories of Duke Yingzhenwu" has just started. He was busy helping the queen compile "Biographies of Women" and delayed it."

Since this is the case, Yun Chu felt that the life and death of this guy had little to do with him, so he started playing chess with Jin Manru again, but Jin Manru was always willing to lean forward, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Because there were always bursts of subtle footsteps above his head, which should be Yun Jin standing on the roof.

Yu Xiurong beat the war drum three times in one breath.

One war drum lasted about five minutes, and three war drums lasted a quarter of an hour.

This is consistent with the time of the war drums in the army. After all, the soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding weapons will kill in a wave for five minutes. If the first wave of killing fails to take down the enemy, then the second war drum will be beaten. If the enemy is on the verge of collapse after the second war drum, then the third war drum will be beaten for the final decisive battle.

The so-called first drum is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted.

After Yu Xiurong's three drums were beaten, Li Si and Yun Jin, who were fighting fiercely in the field, also stopped fighting immediately. They stood on both sides holding the horse spears, and their chests rose and fell violently.

The fierce battle just now made the ladies of Lai Yun family stunned. They could not imagine that the two beautiful girls in the field, who were as green as green onions, would look like a female tiger once they started fighting.

Even though Yu Xiurong beat the drum very hard and the sound was deafening, Wu Mei still couldn't hide what she should know. She didn't leave, but sat in the middle seat steadily, looking at Yu Xiurong who was also panting with an incomprehensible expression.

Yu Xiurong, sweating profusely, raised a glass of wine and invited the queen to drink: "Drink to win."

Wu Mei changed her face and raised the wine glass and said: "Drink to win."

Li Si came slowly behind Wu Mei with a horse spear, and Yun Jin returned to her mother Yu Xiurong with a horse spear. The ladies present finally heard the fighting not far away. They were all pale and their legs were shaking, but because the queen had no intention of leaving, they had to bite the bullet and stay where they were, but they were no longer in the mood to watch the singing and dancing.

Wu Mei said to Yu Xiurong, "Is the prince in the mansion?"

Yu Xiurong drank a glass of wine and said, "My husband, my sons are all in the mansion, and none of the servants of the Yun family are out."

Wu Mei took a sip of wine and said, "Very good."

Yu Xiurong said, "Inviting the queen to the mansion for a banquet is the only thing the Yun family can do for the queen."

Wu Mei stared at Yu Xiurong's eyes and said, "Where is the prince?"

Yu Xiurong said, "He went to the Hebi Palace with Yunna to play."

Wu Mei glanced at the crown princess Pei Wanying who was sitting below her and said, "You don't know?"

The crown princess stood up and knelt and said, "My daughter-in-law knows."

Wu Mei sighed and said, "It's useless after all."

Yu Xiurong said, "My husband said that the power of heaven is unpredictable. Luoyang City is your majesty's Luoyang City after all. Whatever your majesty wants to do in Luoyang City, it is the grace of heaven."

Wu Wu Mei said, "When the sky opens tomorrow, Luoyang will be covered in blood."

Yu Xiurong said, "When the sky opens tomorrow, Luoyang will be the same as yesterday."

"When will you leave Luoyang?"

"After the song and the wine, it will be time for you to leave Luoyang."

Wu Mei was a very decisive person. She looked back at Li Si who was standing behind her with a horse spear, and sighed, "Since things have come to this, let's continue playing music and dancing!"

Li Si said loudly with a blank expression, "Play music, sing and dance!"

So, after a quick sound of hand drums, twelve wool blankets two feet square were spread on the ground, and twelve Western Region Bodhisattvas, dressed in cool clothes and with bells on their bodies, came out with their hands clasped together and limped. After shaking their shoulders and kicking their legs, the sound of bells was uniform, beating on the hearts of every guest like war drums.

Not far away, there were bursts of explosions of thunder and fire bombs, and from time to time, large flames and black smoke rose up. Whether it was the Yun family's singing and dancing, or the battle between the prince and the queen, they all entered a white-hot state.

The queen and the prince's people were used in this battle, but the one who facilitated this battle was the emperor Li Zhi who lived in Ziwei Palace.

Today was a full moon night, and the emperor sat on a high platform, with a giant bear leaning behind him.

Ziwei Palace was located on a high place, and like the Chang'an Palace City, it occupied the highest point of the city.

Chang'an looked back at the piles of embroidery, and the thousands of doors on the top of the mountain opened one after another. At this time, the emperor was sitting at the highest point, and Luoyang City was exposed to him without any cover.

Putting down the monocular telescope Wenrou had made for him, Li Zhi said to Ruichun, who was beside him, "Pass the order down, don't use thunder and fire bombs and kerosene bombs, it's not good to destroy Luoyang."

Ruichun looked at the flames rising from Luoyang from time to time and the thunder-like explosions, and saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the two sides are already killing each other, no one will listen to anything you say at this time."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "It's blown up, it burned my Luoyang, you have to pay for it."

Ruichun said softly, "Your Majesty, General Xue has been waiting for a long time..."

Li Zhi raised his hand and said, "Then let him in."

Xue Rengui, who was dressed in armor, arrived at the high platform in a short time. As soon as he entered, he respectfully bowed to the ground and lowered his head, not daring to look at Li Zhi's face.

Li Zhi said softly: "Don't be afraid, Xue Qing, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Xue Rengui said in a low voice: "There is chaos in Luoyang, and it is the fault of Weichen, the Luoyang guard."

Li Zhi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, this is the war initiated by me. As long as Aiqing controls the war within a certain range, it will be a great achievement."

Xue Rengui raised his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty, Zuo Sanqi's Chang Shi Guo Daiju, Shangshu Zuo Cheng Wei Xuantong, Gai Shizhong Liu Qixian, Taifu Qing Wei Hongmin, Hongwenguan bachelor Huan Yanfan, Libu doctor Wang Dezhen, Zhongshu Sheren Liu Yezhi Feishang. Immediately, Qian Niu Guards and Hwarang Tu suffered heavy casualties. Please tell me when to end the war."

Li Zhi frowned slightly and said, "It's not enough!"

Xue Rengui raised his head and looked at the emperor with his hands clasped in his fists and said: "Your Majesty, if the war is prolonged, the casualties will be heavier, and the number of elites in the Tang Dynasty will be reduced. Please show mercy to your majesty."

Li Zhi looked at Xue Rengui and said, "What Ai Qing did is quite ancient."

Xue Rengui immediately shut his mouth after hearing this.

Li Zhi waved to Xue Rengui and said, "The bright moon is in the sky. My dear, you'd better have a drink with me."

Xue Rengui knelt down in front of the emperor. The giant bear behind the emperor suddenly got up and stared at Xue Rengui for a while, then obediently lay down on the ground under the emperor's comfort.
