Chapter 201 Longyou ending(2/2)
When Zhang Huan came to negotiate that day, Wei Du also followed Wei Yan out of the city to greet him. He still remembered Pei Mingyuan, so he said hoarsely: "Young Master Pei, what's wrong with you?"
"Please let me enter the city! I came to save the lives of the Wei family."
"Hmph! What life is saving? It's clear that we want to offer the city." Liu Heng snorted coldly. He strode to the side of the city wall and said loudly to Pei Mingyuan: "For the sake of Pei Xiangguo, I will warn you first. If you don't leave, I will shoot an arrow."
"General Liu! Is this my decision or you?" Wei Du said with a heavy face: "You insulted me just now, and I don't care anymore. If you dare to be supreme, I will dismiss your military post."
Liu Heng glanced at him sideways and said disdainfully: "What are you? Who can dismiss me except the Grand Marshal!"
At this time, Wei Ping came up to smooth things over and said, "Pei Mingyuan is just a scholar. Let him come in and say, if the conditions are too much, we will ignore it."
"Yes! It's reasonable, what's the point?" More than a dozen important officials of the Wei family agreed.
Seeing that the Wei family was in agreement, it was not easy to object, Liu Heng shook his eyes on the sergeant next to him, "Let him in!"
Soon after, the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gate was opened. Pei Mingyuan entered Kaiyang City alone. Under the guidance of the soldiers, he walked up to the city and bowed deeply to Wei Du from afar. "Uncle Wei Shi, here is the judge of the Xiliang Army, who is here to discuss with you on behalf of my governor."
"Please say it, Mr. Pei!"
Pei Mingyuan looked at the Wei family again. Seeing that they were all nervous, he smiled and said, "To be honest, the entire Longyou has been taken down by our Xiliang army. Now we are determined to win Kaiyang County. If the Wei family is willing to give up Kaiyang County, our governor will send the Wei family to Guanzhong, and we will never hurt a single person or a single person."
"What if we don't?" Wei Du asked coldly.
Pei Mingyuan sighed, "Once the Xiliang army invaded the city, I'm afraid the governor would not be able to restrain the soldiers."
"What a big tone!" Liu Heng sneered repeatedly, "We have 20,000 people to defend the city, and you only have 40,000 to 50,000. Who can be killed? "
"Of course we are prepared, please see!" Pei Mingyuan pointed to the distance, and everyone was shocked. At some point, hundreds of giant catapults had slowly launched into the Hexi army, neatly arranged in a row, with a terrifying momentum.
"I'm not talking about stone cannons!" Pei Mingyuan saw that Liu Heng's face had changed, and he sneered and said, "I'm talking about that wooden rack."
Everyone looked at him and then found that a wooden platform about four meters high had been built next to the army. A huge wooden barrel was erected on the wooden tower, and a long tail-shaped thing hung on the wooden barrel. At this time, the soldiers around them retreated one after another, retreating three hundred steps away from the wooden platform, and many people covered their ears.
Wei Du and others didn't understand why, and looked at Pei Mingyuan in surprise, "Young Master Pei, what is this?"
Pei Mingyuan just laughed but said nothing, and suddenly a cavalryman with a golden helmet slowly ran out from under the banner. The Xiliang army suddenly heard a thunderous sound, and the sound of shouting "Governor!" came one after another.
This is naturally Zhang Huan, the commander of the Western Liang Army. He was wearing iron armor and holding a archer in his hand, with a cold and fierce look. When he walked about a hundred steps away from the wooden platform, he stopped. Two personal soldiers rushed over, and one of them lit the arrow in his hand and raised his hands above his head to present it.
Zhang Huan pulled the arrow and the bow gradually became a full moon. A ball of fire burned on the arrow. At this time, Zhang Huan glanced coldly at the top of the city. His eyes narrowed slightly, his fingers loosened, and with a "swoosh!", the rocket drew a beautiful arc and headed straight for the wooden barrel, nailed it to the long tail with extraordinary accuracy. The tail immediately burst into blue smoke and burned quickly.
Zhang Huan's horse slowly retreated. At this time, the whole city was silent. Tens of thousands of pairs of eyes were staring at the tail with blue smoke. It quickly burned into the wooden barrel and there was no movement. Everyone was wondering, suddenly, a strange red light burst out from the wooden platform, as if lightning had been compressed into one meter. Then a loud noise of the sky collapsed and the earth broke out. A huge black cloud soared into the sky, and the four-meter-high wooden platform was blown to pieces.
The soldiers around him knelt down with their ears tightly, and then shouted desperately. Nearly 10,000 soldiers in the city changed color in horror, with extremely terrifying expressions in their eyes. Some people were unstable and lay directly on the battlements. Some soldiers hugged them tightly. This is something they had never heard of and had never seen. Is it a magical weapon or a ghost treasure?
The first time the gunpowder exploded on the battlefield had a strong shocking effect. Even Liu Heng slowly knelt down, his face was ashamed, and more than a dozen people from the Wei family were trembling with shock. The timid Wei Du even fell to the ground.
Pei Mingyuan breathed a long sigh of relief. He glanced at everyone and smiled faintly: "This is an ancient divine object we found in the Qilian Mountains, a total of twenty. If Kaiyang County wants to resist, we will use it to fight!"
