Two hundred and fifty-nine Luochuan
The night passed quickly, and the weather cleared up. It felt uncomfortable without rain. Fortunately, there were rivers here and there were no shortage of water sources, but Liu He did find that the water source had dropped by half a meter. It seems that the rivers would not be drought this year, but the crops would definitely not be able to withstand it. This requires large-scale irrigation, otherwise it would be over this year. Chang'an and the people in the war had no choice. Liu He sighed, and he did not have many good solutions. At this stage, he just wanted to see what he wanted to do. It was basically impossible to make a difference.
When Cai Yan got up early in the morning, she had already asked the little maid to prepare for washing up. The young lady wanted to do it by herself, so she was a little bit inferior when she followed Liu He every day and did nothing. She was really proud of the ink in her belly. It was indeed a time when she was talented in this era, but Liu He had more ink, but she was still a little inferior when facing Cai Yan.
"The lord Luochuan is martial law... the prisoners we sent cannot convince them." Gao Shun was very depressed. Even if he only 5,000 people dared to defend? Although the lord did not have siege equipment here, there were obviously something more terrifying. For example, the cannon was a little too powerful, and everything yesterday was vivid in my mind. How can the dilapidated wooden door of the city be withstood? If you take a few random shots, you may be afraid that the gate will be broken. I really don't know what they should guard it.
Liu He nodded and said, "I'm sending people to tell them that if I can't stand, all the alien races in the city will be killed on the day of breaking the city." If I surrender early, everyone will be spared from death. By the way... pull our cannons out, shoot at the city gate, and then send people over. Without force, it's ridiculous. Violence is not the key to solving the problem, but it must be the best choice to terminate the problem.
Gao Shun was immediately excited. After the cannon was pulled back yesterday, he and Meng Chang, Xu Huang, Guo Huai, and Zhang Yan wandered around the thing for a long time. Xu Huang and Zhang Yan, Guo Huai did not see the effect. They could only hear Meng Chang and Gao Shun describe the effect to them, but these two people were stupid, which means they were hard to describe it clearly.
"The lord, Mo Jiang, had long wanted to see the cannon in Bo Ping's mouth. Yesterday, I heard that this thing killed several people in an instant. It is said that the first person directly turned into flesh and foam." Xu Huang looked at this big killing weapon and couldn't help but enchant it. Liu He shivered. What kind of hoax is this?
Seeing a few people surrounding the cannon, Liu He nodded and said, "Prepare, let's go over and take a look..." As everyone went straight outside. Liu He had just gotten on his carriage, and Cai Yan followed behind him.
"Can the general's slave family accompany you? It's better to record this picture and publish it in the newspaper in the future?" Liu He had asked her to draw a scene of the enemy before, but now she wants to see this scene, let alone this scene. Although the war is terrible, Liu He's side seems to be particularly exciting. Cai Yan's heart trembled when he saw the artillery, but the more terrifying it was, the more excited it made people feel. This man's well-deserved hero subconsciously looked at Liu He, and couldn't help but look like a peach blossom...
Liu He didn't know what Cai Yan was thinking, but he thought she was shy and tight. This scene was indeed beautiful and tight. If Liu He knew what Cai Yan was thinking, he might be a little excited. Isn't this a trembling person? The literary girl is indeed an incredible existence.
Liu He thought for a while and said, "Then Miss Cai is following the carriage..." Seeing Cai Yan sitting beside him, not to mention the fragrance coming, this was not the smell of perfume, which made Liu He couldn't help but look at her a few more times. But when he turned around, he found that the woman's eyes were particularly bright looking at him, and her generous look made Liu He feel a little ashamed.
"General, what's on my face?" Cai Yan looked in the mirror, and he looked very good.
Liu He turned his head and said, "No... I'm hungry."
Cai Yan seemed to understand something, and smiled so hard that she was trembling: "The general is really a person who knows how to be interested..."
Liu He rolled his eyes, too lazy to deal with this female hooligan. The army was making a way forward, and Liu He's attitude immediately became serious. Teaching Cai Yan... It's not right that being teased by Cai Yan is just a seasoning for life. When you really work, Liu He still has to be serious.
The army also appeared in the dilapidated small towns in the distance. Apart from Luoyang and Chang'an, many places here are probably not as good as those renovated in later generations. This place is really too dilapidated, and in Liu He's eyes, it is really hard to defend. No wonder siege in ancient times was a little difficult, but except for some big cities, the rest are very simple.
"Even if there is no firearm in this kind of small city, it can be broken within half a day." Xu Huang looked beside Liu He. What's the point of defending this kind of local city wall? The people inside didn't surrender yet?
Liu He glanced at it and said, "Try our weapons, you should see this thing." Liu He waved his hand and the weapon was pushed out, and then he began to aim. The cavalry stood far away, and then Meng Chang and others went over and lit the lead. With an explosion, a cannon was fired out... and it was hit in a wrong way?
Originally, he was facing the city gate, and he could hit the city wall. Liu He looked at the span and turned black. But then Liu He saw a large area of wall falling down. The earthy wall was too unsolid? But the next second, the city wall collapsed over there. Cai Yan was holding his mouth, and the surprise feeling was perfectly reflected in his eyes.
Liu He's mouth twitched. It's too much disrepair over the years? This is not a tofu, it's really too dilapidated. But they don't think so, they just think that this thing is too powerful, right? Of course, Liu He is not satisfied. Can't he aim at it?
"Yongyi, can't you aim?" With a command, the calibration started in a hurry in the distance.
At this moment, you can see that the other party's city was particularly messy. The soldiers fell down, and the rest ran down in a hurry. Liu He saw many people kneeling down at such a distance. This is really a foreign race? After Liu He looked at it for a long time, he shot out again. This time it was more accurate. He hit the upper left corner of the city gate, and then the entire wooden door fell down. Liu He saw a bag, which was not easy. This kind of small town is really not easy.
The second shot was broken directly, and then Liu He saw the cavalry behind the door. Are they going to come out to fight with him or run away? The scene was a little awkward for a moment. They looked at the army outside, and Liu He looked at them awkwardly. Xu Huang ordered the cavalry to move immediately. Do they actually want to rush out?
But the scene is too awkward now. They are not rushing out, nor are they not rushing out. The infantry here immediately stepped forward and the archers were ready. The cavalry on both sides were in position, and as long as they came out, these people were not enough to kill. The scene was awkward for a moment. Liu He stood up and took a few glances, waved his hand and went another prisoner.
"Kill all the officials in this surrender. If they don't surrender, all the five thousand people will stay here." Liu He was actually quite patient, but this time Liu He was not very patient.
As Liu He spoke, two more prisoners appeared after he spoke, Liu He might not have waited for a long time. Now it is June, and it is almost time for Emperor Xian of Han to escape from Chang'an. In July or August, Emperor Xian of Han will arrive in Hongnong. A war will break out at that time. Dong Cheng would have found Yang Feng and go to Bei and others to rescue him, but now these people are all dealt with by Liu He. So for his future, Liu He can only go there personally. He is not afraid of these people...
The captive was very fast, and Huchuquan's head was hung in the distance. Soon the captive came back: "Sir, they are willing to surrender..."
Liu He nodded and said, "I did a good job. Go back and tell them to get off the horse and wait, so that the clan leader they lead will come out." Generally, this kind of alliance is mainly composed of their respective tribes and then formed.
The prisoners were soon taken away, and there was obviously a lot of riot inside. I don’t know what happened, but Liu He suddenly saw a person slashing at another person. He suddenly became a mess inside, and then everyone started fighting directly? The scene was quite interesting. As the fight lasted for more than ten minutes, the battle ended.
Then three people rushed out, two of whom were holding their heads towards Liu He. From a distance, they saw Liu He rolling over and getting off the horse and kneeling down: "The two of them are Hu Chuquan's confidants. Yesterday, we wanted to surrender the lord. But they were unwilling to do so. And they had many people in the army. They killed them today and then surrendered to the lord..."
Liu He looked at the two men and nodded and said, "You will go in and kill all the close soldiers. After you completely end the civil strife, I am willing to give you a chance. I forgot to tell you that even if you surrender to me, I will still mind very much. I am afraid it will be difficult to use you in the future unless there is something special... So you can resist now and let our soldiers practice. Of course, if you surrender now, I will also give you a life in accordance with etiquette."
Liu He said it very clearly, but their faces became increasingly ugly. Finally, the three of them bowed and said, "It is a blessing to tell us this kind of kindness and righteousness. Although we are not talented, we can still help the adults grazing at the horse farm..." They could already think of their miserable fate. Of course, officials like Liu He told them very clearly and would not reuse them unless they did anything? This also means that there is a slight chance in the future...
