Chapter 471 The mystery is hidden and inaccessible
"Catch up?"
"Catch up, right in front of you"
After hearing the report from the front, Cui Ganyou stroked his beard and laughed.
As Zhuo Junfu said, it was Cui Ganyou who was entrusted with important tasks by An Lushan.
At the beginning of this coup, Cui Ganyou's heavy responsibility was to seize the responsibility of the palace and the imperial guards' camp, which was also a key task, but he commanded it properly, so the process went very smoothly. After success, An Lushan sent him to chase Ye Chang and Li Longji, and repeatedly told Ye Chang that he had a sharp weapon similar to the thunder in his palm.
"Doctor An told me that the troops in Ye Chang's hand are very difficult to deal with. After throwing out the thunder in his palm, they will explode in a moment, and those who are in trouble will be corrupt... But if you are not afraid of the explosion, and you can enter the formation with cavalry speed, you can break it... Since that's the case, I will let the cavalry rush to the formation first."
Cui Ganyou was very cautious. After he made up his mind, he did not entrust all his strength, but sent out cavalry first and ordered the infantry to slowly entrust the formation. In his opinion, if there was any disadvantage, the infantry could also accept the cavalry, so as not to Ye Chang take advantage of the victory to pursue him.
But shortly after the cavalry was sent out, a huge fireball rose into the air in front of him, and then a loud bang came. Although Cui Ganyou was mentally prepared, he was still frightened by the loud noise. The war horses in his army were even more ruthless and uneasy. If they had not been comforted, they would have been frightened and galloped wildly.
"What's going on? Doctor An said that the other party had some kind of weapon and said that his momentum was like thunder, but he never said that his momentum was here." Cui Ganyou almost stood up from his horse, looked west, and watched the strong flames rise into the air, and felt extremely uneasy.
Ye Chang has such a magic weapon, how could they fight with him?
"Infantrymen stepped up, come forward to respond, don't let Ye thieves take the opportunity to pursue," Cui Ganyou ordered, "Send someone to ask, what's going on."
After a while, someone came from the front with a wounded cavalry. The cavalry burst into tears when they saw Cui Ganyou, and his voice was sad and sad.
"What's going on? Aren't you going to be more careful and beware of the thief throwing out melon-like objects?"
"General, it's so miserable. We are really careful. When we chased him, Ye Zhe and others threw down several cars with supplies, but when we arrived at the side of the car, there was a sudden sound..."
The news obtained from the surviving cavalry made Cui Ganyou gasp, his eyes flashed, and he was extremely uneasy.
According to his plan, the cavalry raided Ye Chang's troops regardless of everything, but Ye Chang's troops probably discovered them, so they threw away several supplies, surrounded the remaining large chariots, and formed a semicircular chariot formation along the Wei River. If the cavalry wanted to attack the chariot formation, they had to penetrate the several supplies that were thrown away.
Just as they swarmed through the baggage truck, Ye Chang's troops shot out the fire crossbow with a car-mounted crossbow. Then, on the baggage truck, in a blink of an eye, the gunpowder in the baggage truck was detonated. Under the series of explosions, the remaining gunpowder bags that had long been hidden were also exploded one after another, and a fire storm was set off on the road of cavalry charge.
Even if the cavalry charges with all their might, it is impossible to completely escape under such circumstances. Cui Ganyou's cavalry was swallowed by the flames in an instant. Even if the remaining people rushed to the chariot formation, they were blocked by the chariot formation and could not hurt the people in the chariot formation at all.
What awaits them is the shooting of crossbow arrows.
"Nearly 30% of them were killed on the spot, and the rest were injured... The cavalry was over..."
Cui Ganyou sat on the horse, his face kept twitching, and then sighed.
According to An Lushan, Ye Chang's new weapon needs to be thrown before it can work. However, at this point, this object can be immediately attacked by just starting a fire.
Unless God helps, it seems that there is no way to fight against it...
Cui Ganyou actually had a way to deal with Ye Chang's gunpowder weapons at this time, but that method was too unworthy for him - it was obvious that Ye Chang's gunpowder weapons were extremely dependent on logistics supplies. Now Ye Chang only brought some supplies. As long as he had his life filled, he could sooner or later use his gunpowder weapons.
But Cui Ganyou knew very well that if the chaos was imminent today, the fundamental thing he had to use under An Lushan was his troops. How good would he have to use his own line to fill in the magical weapon?
Anyway, An Lushan himself suffered a defeat, so he took it again, so it was hard for An Lushan to go into it.
"Follow the way, don't let Ye Chang escape safely." After thinking for a while, Cui Ganyou ordered.
"General, are you going to attack again?" The deputy generals next to him all looked like earth. The scene just now was too terrifying. They are now brave. Not to mention anything else, the side general who led the cavalry to attack has not been found yet, and ended up in pieces that were crushed to pieces and turned into powder.
"If you have the chance, attack; if you don't have the chance, act according to the opportunity." Cui Ganyou said calmly: "I will send someone to send a letter to Doctor An... It's not that our army's battle is unfavorable, but Ye Zhe has...the magical weapons.
The messenger ran back and rushed towards Chang'an City. When he arrived at Chang'an City, the gates of Chang'an were closed all directions. He shouted under the city for a long time, took out Cui Ganyou's arrow, and then he was hung into the city by a hanging basket.
"Why is this?" The messenger was a little surprised: "Is there something wrong?"
"If you leave the emperor, you must be careful. Many of the ministers in this city escaped in the chaos last night, and some of them wanted to escape. Letting them join the old emperor is a big trouble after all." The soldiers guarding the gate smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, have you caught up?"
"Moti, Moti." The messenger sighed: "Where is Doctor An now?"
"Of course it's Xingqing Palace, where is the grand dynasty meeting? How can it be achieved if Doctor An is not here?"
It was already dawn. When the messenger heard this, he borrowed a horse and rushed to Xingqing Palace. As a result, he asked in front of Xingqing Palace, but he knew that he and An Lushan had missed it. The court meeting had ended. An Lushan people went to Ye Chang's mansion again. He could only turn the horse's head and run to Ye Chang's mansion.
He kept running all the way, and when he arrived, he saw An Lushan get off the carriage.
An Lushan was fat and had many inconveniences to ride a horse. He did not sleep all night, so he changed to a carriage. He had just been named Duke of Yan, Prime Minister, Deputy Marshal of the World, and other officials. If it were the past, he would have been happy, but now he is in a heavy heart.
"Where are the people?" As soon as he got off the car, he asked repeatedly: "Where are the people?"
"It's in the house." A personal soldier came to guide him with grief.
An Lushan hurried into the house and saw two quilts placed on a removed door panel. His eldest son An Qingzong lay on the quilt. The fire rose in the house, so it was still relatively warm, but when he saw the eldest son's appearance, An Lushan still felt cold in his heart.
His body was covered in blood and his face was even more bloody. Although it was cleaned, the blue-black on the wound was still shocking.
"My son, my son... are you okay? How are you feeling?" An Lushan walked to An Qingzong with a little floating, trying to touch his son, but he was a little afraid.
"Father...father, I feel so painful, I feel so painful." An Qingzong heard An Lushan's voice and turned his head to look at him, but his pupils were not focal, and no one could see in front of him.
He cried out in pain, and An Lushan shouted at the doctor. The doctor came over with a frown. An Lushan said irritably: "Why can't he relieve pain?"
"Doctor...oh, my husband, really... this injury is not a sword. I am very weak in skills and I am really powerless.
"What do you want you to do?" An Lushan heard the four words "powerless" and drew his sword and killed the imperial physician. After kicking the corpse over, he looked back at the other imperial physicians who were huddling aside and trembling: "If I can't cure my son, I will bury you with you."
After saying that, he looked at his son again, and heard that he was still crying pain, and his heart was like a knife cut. He couldn't bear to listen anymore, so he went out the door and saw that the guard was still there, so he waved his hand: "What's going on?"
The personal guard was ordered by him to come to Ye's house to inspect and found Anqingzong in the pile of corpses. Anqingzong was lucky because when the grenade was throwing grenades, he had already been shot by Ye Chang and fell to the ground, so he did not suffer much damage. But he was unfortunate. The lead sprayed from gunpowder hit his body. In this era, there was almost no cure. He was destined to struggle in pain for a few days and then die.
"Where is this guy Li Huaiyu?" An Lushan asked sternly when he heard this.
"I was looking for his body, my head was cut halfway, and there were at least ten injuries in my body." The guard said.
Li Huaiyu was shot by Nan Jiyun and almost died. He finally saved his life, but he could escape from the first day of the lunar calendar and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. This time he died so much that he could not die again.
Needless to ask, this is also the masterpiece of Ye Chang's "magic weapon" used by An Lushan, who couldn't help but roaring to the sky, and was furious.
If it weren't for Ye Chang, he would have been the winner of the complete victory in this coup. Even if Li Heng went to the stage to become the emperor, An Lushan would be sure to control it in his hands. However, because of Ye Chang, not only did Li Longji escape, but An Lushan also caused the loss of troops and generals, and even his own son was in danger.
At this moment, Cui Ganyou's envoy came and reported Cui Ganyou's great loss to him. For An Lushan, this was an old revenge and a new revenge was added. His eyes were like a frog, and his fat belly was also bulging because of anger. He felt that the chest and abdomen were blocked by cement, and he could hardly breathe.
He looked back at the room where his son was temporarily staying. This was Ye Chang's house, so many rooms were made of glass windows, which was considered a luxury. An Lushan looked at the guard again: "Are there anyone else in Ye's house?"
"No, I left Yu Jing, searched it all, but I didn't see anyone, there was just a room..." The guard looked at An Lushan: "There is a wooden sign in front of me, and we have never entered."
“Why?”
"Those who enter the wooden sign will die suddenly." The guard was a little hesitant: "Killed by the thunder and earth fire."
"Farting" An Lushan was furious when he heard this. He sternly said: "Take me to take a look."
The guards took him and his party to the house. The room was a small house in Ye's courtyard. It was originally supposed to be worshipped by Li Tengkong, but now it is empty. An Lushan stood outside and looked inside, but saw the doors and windows locked, almost airtight.
There was a wooden sign on the door with a series of words written on it. An Lushan was not literate, but he had his own staff around him. Yan Zhuang stayed in his house, but Gao Shang was beside him. He stepped forward to read to him and listened: "Among the subordinates of An Lushan should not enter this house without any chance. Violators will be killed by the thunder and earth fire..."
"Go in and take a look." An Lushan ordered the guard.
The guard's face suddenly turned pale: "This...this..."
"You don't dare to go in, and you won't catch someone?" An Lushan said angrily.
The personal guard heard that it was reasonable, so he quickly caught someone in the house next to him. The man trembled and pushed open the door. The house was not locked in. However, after pushing it open, a strange sound suddenly came from inside, which scared the man so much that he rolled out and crawled out.
“That’s… flour”
"It turned out to be flour..."
The person who ran out was covered in dust and was covered in white and looked carefully. When he saw this, his guard finally felt relieved and walked in. He saw that the hut was covered in gray, but flour leaked from the attic.
The face was leaking very quickly, probably because of some mechanism when I opened the door, causing the flour to fly down like snowflakes. The guard looked closely and saw a stele erect in the middle of the house. There were vague words on it, but I couldn't see what was written.
After he stood in front of the door to report, An Lushan said to Gao Shang: "Sir Gao will take a look, what exactly is it written?"
After this coup, Li Heng rewarded the merits and honors, and Yan Zhuang were both given official positions. Like Gao Shang, he received a minister of the Ministry of Works. After hearing An Lushan's order, Gao Shang stepped inside. When he went in, he saw that the room was very dark. The stone tablet had its own words and its back was facing the only light door. He immediately ordered people to bring a torch.
The guard took a torch from outside and saw that the flour was still falling on Shuoshuo, and couldn't help but smile and said, "It turns out that Ye Chang is a pretentious person..."
He spoke and entered. Before he could finish his words, the flames on the torch jumped up, instantly turning into a fireball, and then a loud bang.
An Lushan stood in the yard, far away, and he was suspicious, and there were dozens of armored soldiers around him. He also wanted to know what the stone tablet in the room was written. When the fire rose into the sky, the only thought in his heart was "It was broken, I was fooled again."
Then, he felt as if something was pushing him, and his whole body was thrown up, and the deafening sound almost at the same time, which made him lose consciousness.
He woke up until his head hit somewhere. Looking back, he saw a wound around him. With the small house as the center, a large area of Ye's house was swept into flat ground, and there was only a big pit left in the small house.
Fire everywhere, howling and screaming everywhere, fear and despair everywhere
