Invincible son

Chapter 1045 1046 [Sword Weeping Ghosts and Gods]

Kyoto was originally the capital of the former Wei Dynasty. After the founding of the country, Emperor Gaozu continued to reinforce and repair this fortified city. Therefore, the city defense facilities are extremely complete, especially the multi-bow bed crossbow called Ba Niu Nu, which is placed in the four-sided turret. For the siege army, it can be described as a nightmare existence.

This kind of eight-ox crossbow is also known as one gun and three swords. When it was first developed, it required more than a hundred soldiers to operate it. Later, after continuous technical improvement, it only needed more than ten people to launch it.The arrows of the Baoxu crossbow are similar to the long spears used by the cavalry. They have a long range and amazing power. Once fired, they can easily penetrate the human body. There is even a record of killing nine people with one arrow.

There are a large number of eight-ox crossbows placed in the turrets on all sides, but no one could have imagined that one day the defense equipment of Daliang Capital would turn around and shoot a whole round of arrows towards the Taimiao Temple of Sacrifice less than two miles away.

When the terrifying whistling sound sounded, dozens of long spears had already poured in, appearing in the sight of everyone in the Taimiao instantly.

Some people rushed to the Altar of Sacrifice to save them, some people ran down for their lives in great fear, the court guards could no longer intimidate the crowd in the courtyard as before, and countless people screamed in panic and rushed towards the big halberd gate , the imperial guards outside rushed in, and the two sides collided and mixed together.

The situation is chaotic.

At this time, several young civil servants stepped forward to surround Mo Haoli in panic, but the old man sternly said angrily: "Protect Your Majesty, leave me alone!"

Everyone in the harem and the clan's children watched in horror as a long spear came through the air, piercing Wu Kuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and the terrifying power still persisted. Hanging in mid-air.

The Master Shang Shu didn't even have time to let out a scream, the moment the spear pierced his body, it shattered his heart.

These long spears like rain of arrows were obviously aimed at the Temple of Sacrifice. Although the precision cannot be extremely accurate, the top of the Temple of Sacrifice itself is not particularly wide. Such a terrible rain of arrows hit instantly, and the three people standing on the top instantly Then fell into a desperate situation.

Wu Kuan died immediately, Liu Xian risked his life and dragged Emperor Kaiping to the edge of the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven, and then heard a sharp wind coming towards him, he could only turn around instantly with his waist and abdomen, avoiding it dangerously A spear, but at the moment of dodging, he felt a sharp pain in his thigh bone.

The spear fell against his thigh, the point piercing his muscle and sliding across his leg bone.

Liu Xian screamed, and Concubine Wu Gui in the distance was heartbroken, but was dragged down by Princess Pingyang desperately.

At this time, Emperor Kaiping had not yet left the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven. He looked at Liu Xian who was staggering and fell to the ground struggling to get up, ignored the heart-piercing call behind him, and resolutely strode forward.

At this moment, the eyes of the crowd on the platform suddenly blurred, and they saw a figure appearing behind and coming first, and after a few ups and downs, it appeared in front of Ting Wei and Wu Xun who were crazily upwards, and then spread their wings like a roc Leaping high, landed extremely steadily on the edge of the altar.

Several long spears shot at Liu Xian, he rolled on the ground suddenly, escaped by chance, but he couldn't get up at all at the moment, no one knew whether the next long spear would penetrate his body.

Emperor Kaiping strode forward, but that figure was faster than him, showing the strength of his martial arts cultivation.

Many people seem to have forgotten who the number one master in the Daliang Army is.

"Your Majesty, let's go!"

Gu Liang's majestic voice rang in his ears, Kai Ping Emperor suddenly turned his head, and the look in his eyes was extremely complicated.

"Save Liu Xian!"

Emperor Kaiping once showed his martial arts skills to Pei Yue when he prayed for rain last year. Although he was not a top master, he was usually good enough to protect himself.Facing the crisis at this moment, he did not hesitate at all, and quickly retreated after saying those three words.

There was already chaos on the outer platform of the Temple of Sacrifice. When Kaiping Emperor appeared in sight, most people breathed a sigh of relief. A mixed voice persuaded Emperor Kaiping to leave immediately, but he turned his head and looked at the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven.

The power of the eight-ox crossbow was fully demonstrated in front of the eyes of the officials and people in Kyoto. Those long spears with the tails made of refined iron pierced the ground, making a series of sounds like a gust of wind and rain.

The second round of arrow rain came again, Gu Liang rushed to Liu Xian's side in two steps, leaned over and put his hands under his arms, and rushed forward without turning his head.

In the past few years, few people have been able to see Gu Liang revealing his state with his own eyes. At this moment, under the gaze of countless people, his figure is as fast as lightning, and even an afterimage appears at the moment when he exerts his strength, and he rushes to the sacrificial hall in a few seconds. On the edge of the Temple of Heaven, he jumped down, stepped on the outer railing in the air, and landed on the ground smoothly.

Naturally, the incident in the northwest corner building will not be ignored, especially the Marquis Xiaojin of Xiangcheng strictly ordered generals at all levels to be stationed in the area under their jurisdiction today.In fact, when the first round of arrow rain was shot, Pei Cheng, the commander of the garrison division Xicheng, realized that something was wrong, and immediately led the army to rush over. Take back control of the Turret.

Because of this, the second round of arrow rain was a little sparse, and some of the soldiers in charge of the operation were killed by Pei Cheng's leader before they could pull the trigger. Otherwise, according to the density of the first round of arrow rain, Gu Liang might not be able to go smoothly Rescue Liu Xian.

It seems that the big picture is settled.

Emperor Kaiping was still able to maintain his calm, his eyes followed Gu Liang and Liu Xian on the ground on the other side, watching him immediately tear off his sleeves to treat Liu Xian's wound urgently, he felt indescribably complicated emotions in his heart.

He knew the grievances between Emperor Zhongzong and the Gu family, so he had always been on guard and vigilant against Gu Liang, and instead of giving power to Wang Pingzhang like he did back then, he weakened his influence in the army through frequent transfers.Doing this is not only to guard against Gu Liang, but also to avoid the emergence of another military leader like Wang Pingzhang who is too big to lose his tail.

and many more……

A haze appeared in Emperor Kaiping's eyes.

However, at this moment, someone among the guards around him who was protecting him suddenly flipped his hand, and suddenly approached again amidst the noise and uproar, an extremely sinister knife light seemed to penetrate time and years.

The blade was close to the body, Emperor Kaiping seemed to feel something and suddenly turned his head, and at the same time subconsciously reached out to block it.

What appeared in his sight was an ordinary face.

In normal times, this young court guard obviously did not have the chance to approach the emperor alone. Even if he could, he would not be able to hit him with one blow, because Emperor Kaiping was focused on the injured Liu Xian at the moment.

However, there are no ifs in the world.

The knife stabbed between the emperor's waist and abdomen.

The right hand of the young court guard holding the knife kept trembling, but he never let go.

Discovering the abnormality, Chen An and the other Wu Xun court guards roared and shot, killing this personality almost instantly.

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"The Imperial Physician!"

"Quickly send the doctor!"

The panicked shouts stunned everyone on the periphery, and then the concubines in the harem burst into violent cries.

At the lower right side of the Temple of Heaven, Liu Xian, who endured the severe pain and gritted his teeth, turned his head suddenly when he heard the cry, and then said to Gu Liang who was bandaging his own wound in a panic: "Master Junji, go and protect the father!" !"

Gu Liang didn't speak, and handed Liu Xian over to Li Zi, Marquis of Hejian, the commander of the Forbidden Army who rushed over, and then jumped up in the air and rushed to the altar of offering sacrifices to heaven again.

In the extremely chaotic scene, no one noticed that some figures had already left here.
