Become a feudal king from today

Gaojiawu Fort.

For several days, although the palace soldiers besieged the place, no fighting broke out between the two sides.

At this time, the battlefield was solemn and eerily quiet.

But with the arrival of ten carriages, this tranquility was broken.

"Father, it's King Yan!"

On the wall of Wubao City, Gao Man pointed at the handsomely dressed young man below the city wall, his teeth itching with hatred.

If it weren't for King Yan, how could they, the wealthy people in Shanggu County, have fallen into what they are today.

"King Yan!"

Gao Yuan squeezed out two words from between his teeth.

In the past, they lived a prosperous life of singing and dancing in Shanggu County.

No one can challenge their authority.

The Gao family can do whatever they want in Shanggu County.

But now all is ruined.

"Prince Yan, you idiot, why can you return to normal? Why don't you die!" Gao Yuan roared in his heart.

He wished he could kill the handsome young man in the city with one arrow.

Clenching his fist tightly, he said to Gao Man, "Let the soldiers prepare, I want to see what King Yan can do to break into my Gaojiawu Fort."

"Yes, father!" Gao Man responded, and immediately asked the soldiers to prepare stones, rafts, kerosene and other materials to prepare for the next siege.

This time King Yan came in person, definitely not just for a formality.

"What is that thing behind this carriage?" Gao Man frowned again as the orders were passed on.

Although the carriage came with King Yan, now these carriages covered with black cloth were led to the front and lined up.

Under the city.

Zhao Xu covered the sun with his hands and looked at Gaojiawu Fort.

More than 200 meters away from him, a city wall about 15 meters high and built with green bricks on the outside stood in front of him.

The city gate faces east and west, from south to north, with a city wall that is two hundred meters long. At this time, the city wall is filled with soldiers from wealthy families.

"The Gao family is really rich, and they can actually build their own Wubao to this extent." Zhao Xu said slowly.

Liu Fu snorted coldly, "Your Highness, you don't know. This plateau in Shanggu County is better than the Zhang family in Yan County. The Zhang family has the checks and balances of Dong, Yang and Lu families, and here, the Gao family really covers the sky with one hand. It is said that this Wu family The fort was built for private use by the public on the plateau, and the corvee was collected to build it for the family, so it has such a scale. "

"That's it." Zhao Xu understood, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes as he looked towards the city.

Since the decline of the royal family, powerful clans have become increasingly divided.

These wealthy families in counties also despised the royal law and only made profits for themselves, regardless of the life and death of the people and the reputation of the court.

They live on Da Song's body like parasites, sucking up every drop of blood.

If this continues, the Dasong Kingdom will collapse at any time.

"In this case, there is no need for such a vicious wealthy family to be polite to him and kill him with one cannon." Chang Wei licked his lips when he saw that the artillery was all in place.

"The best soldiers are those who can subjugate the enemy without fighting." Mo Yu said: "You can first send someone to shout to persuade them to surrender. In this way, even if the plateau does not surrender, it can shake the minds of the soldiers under his command."

Liu Fu looked at the artillery in front of him. As Wangfu, he naturally knew about this.

"Your Highness, I don't think there is any need to talk to them. General Chang is right. He blasted them." When he said this, he winked at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei laughed twice.

Of course, he knew what Mo Yu said about conquering the enemy without fighting.

It's just that he doesn't want to waste time. The most important thing is that he feels that it is more practical to use artillery to defeat the enemy without fighting.

Zhao Xu saw the two men like this and said, "A warning, they will fire cannons if they don't open the city gate."

He also didn't want to waste time with these bastards.

He didn't think it was necessary to say another word.

"Yes, Your Highness." Chang Wei was excited.

Mo Yu shook his head mindlessly.

He could see that every soldier in the palace's personal army, from King Yan to the soldiers below, exuded a wildness.

But he also thought, without this strength, how could King Yan defeat the Beidi people?

He breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly laughed. He should keep this anger in his heart.

"The old thief from the plateau is so treacherous that he dared to ambush His Royal Highness the King of Yan and raise his troops to rebel. Now I will open the city gate and surrender. I will leave your whole body intact. Otherwise, if I break the city gate, I will cut your body into pieces..."

While Mo Yu was thinking, he heard a loud voice shouting.

At the same time, the horses pulling the carriage were led away, and the artillery was placed on the gun carriage, with the muzzle tilted upward.

The artillerymen lifted off the black cloth again, revealing the black cannon body.

On the city wall.

Gao Yuan was so angry when he heard this shouting.

He pointed at Zhao Xu and said: "King Yan, don't be complacent. Mr. Yuan will send troops to rescue us soon. He wants me to surrender on the plateau. You are daydreaming. If you have the ability, you can break into the city and see if the children of my Gao family will surrender." You will kill and leave nothing behind.”

then.

He looked at the thing that showed its true face, with disdain in his eyes.

It turned out to be ten longer fire guns, and there were more than thirty on the wall of his Wubao.

Gao Yuan's voice floated to Zhao Xu's ears, and Zhao Xu said to Chang Wei: "Let's do it."

Chang Wei had been waiting for this sentence for a long time. He shouted to the artilleryman: "Aim at the people on the wall."

Upon hearing this, the artillerymen immediately adjusted the elevation of the artillery.

What was shipped this time was city defense artillery. Field artillery had not yet been produced and was very bulky.

After a lot of effort, they calibrated the muzzle.

"Load!" Chang Wei continued to shout.

This time he wanted to experience the addiction of personally commanding artillery.

Following his orders, the artillerymen cleared the barrels and loaded ammunition.

The soldiers in charge of firing the cannons were waiting behind with torches, just waiting for the order to fire.

Everything was ready, Chang Wei had a smile on his face, and suddenly shouted: "Fire!"

His order was passed down, and the soldiers holding torches immediately lit the fuses.

"Boom boom boom..."

Ten cannons burst into flames and smoke from north to south.

The black iron bullets flew out of the barrels and flew to the top of the city in an instant, and the huge sound was like thunder in the clear sky.

The soldiers of the royal palace who participated in the siege had basically never heard the sound of cannons at close range.

Many soldiers were frightened and trembled, and some even turned pale.

This is the instinctive fear of creatures to loud noises.

On the city wall.

The moment the cannons sounded, Gao Yuan was so scared that he could hardly control his urge to urinate.

Before he recovered from his fear, he felt something hot and wet on his face.

He looked to his side, and a child of the Gao family had lost his head, only a few pieces of flesh and blood were hanging, and blood spurted out like a fountain, sprinkling on him.

This scene finally made him unable to control himself and urinated.

"What...what is this?" Gao Yuan's legs could hardly support him.

At the same time, screams continued to be heard.

The black afterimage flew past and hit people, almost smashing them into powder.

It hit the parapets of the city wall, smashing the parapets into pieces, and rocks flew everywhere.

Gao Man and the noble soldiers on the city wall were also terrified.

A strong fear occupied their hearts.

Some noble soldiers lay directly on the ground, trembling, and dared not get up.
