boom!
Luo Xiao quietly looked at the bloody battlefield. The Taiping Army had mobilized almost all the arsenals around Luoyang and had all the siege equipment available. They worked day and night, and Luoyang was on the verge of collapse.
You can't defend Luoyang just by relying on it!
This is a fact that everyone knows. The only thing the emperor and ministers in the city can hope for is King Qin's army.
Luoyang City must be defended for at least half a year, or even a year, until the Kanto princes can regroup and rediscover their war potential.
But what a pity.
The hearts of the people in Luoyang City have been lost, the crown prince has fled, and the world has a second political center. Countless people are thinking in their hearts, will King Qin and the princes really come?
There is another extremely terrifying thing that almost no one dares to say.
If Crown Prince Ben succeeds to the throne, can he be crowned emperor?
I'm afraid it won't work!
Has the destiny of the Han Dynasty really been lost?
The importance of the Mandate of Heaven to political governance is unimaginable to ordinary people. A regime without the Mandate of Heaven is difficult to maintain people's hearts.
"Go first!"
As the Taiping Army attacked the city again and again, the panic in Luoyang City finally exploded. In a short period of time, Luo Xiao received dozens of documents willing to cooperate internally and externally.
Under the bright sunshine again,
Luo Xiao rushed forward on his horse and stood in the center of the army, looking at the majestic Luoyang and listening to the gurgling sound of Luoshui. He did not hold a horse in his hand, but pulled out a rather gorgeous ceremonial sword.
Except for Qu Shuai, who organized the attack, the entire Taiping Army's top brass surrounded him. Luo Xiao was holding a ceremonial sword, and then stabbed straight into the sky.
“The sun is going to set, it’s time for Luoyang to break!”
All the commanders of the Taiping Army responded in unison, then picked up the reins and galloped their horses, shouting: "The Taoist Master has ordered us to attack Luoyang City before the sun sets!"
Then the messengers spread the order throughout the entire army, and countless voices rang out: "The Taoist Master has an order, before the sun sets, attack Luoyang City!"
This turbulent sound was like a tsunami surged by strong winds, turning into the sharpest sword energy, striking hard at Luoyang City.
"The door is open!"
Following the creaking sound, a sound of wild laughter sounded, followed by countless cheers.
The already crumbling Luoyang City, like the afterglow of the setting sun, could no longer hold on. The north gate opened wide, and the most elite heavy cavalry of the Taiping Army held a shield in one hand and a lance on the waist with the other, charging straight in. , the Taiping soldiers on the city wall also quickly controlled the city gate tower to prevent the city gate from closing again.
"Master Taoist, the gate of Luoyang City is open."
Guan Hai said excitedly, and all the Qu commanders gathered around Luo Xiao. Luo Xiao rode forward, "Enter the city and control Luoyang."
When the gates of Luoyang City opened, everyone in the city knew that the situation was over.
The fortified city relying on Luoyang cannot be defended, and the street fighting in the city is simply a dream.
The number of Taiping troops stationed outside Luoyang City is countless. Some say it is more than the entire population of Luoyang City.
When Luo Xiao crossed the city gate, the Taiping troops who were charging ahead had already controlled several streets including the city gate. The results of the battle could be described as overwhelming. These soldiers had lost their will to resist.
With the influx of a large number of Taiping soldiers, the soldiers defending the city basically gave up resistance and prepared to meet their fate.
After the Taiping soldiers entered the city, they began to control various traffic arteries. According to Luo Xiao's order, everyone must stay in the house and is not allowed to leave.
Luo Xiao looked at the holy city, and then set his sights on the palace.
Naturally, all the Qushuai also set their sights on the palace and entered Luoyang City. If they didn't enter the palace, their visit would be in vain.
Luo Xiao walked forward, and everyone followed him. Zhang Yan led the Taiping Army to attack the inner city and the imperial city of Luoyang. Even the heavy city of Luoyang could not stop the Taiping Army, let alone an imperial palace?
As the corpses of the Forbidden Army fell from the wall one by one, and with a loud noise, the last obstacle to the palace was opened.
The Taiping troops poured into those corridors crazily, and then headed towards the front hall, where the emperor was. He wanted to escape very much, but where to escape?
What's the use of escaping to the apse or escaping to the harem?
From the gate of the front hall to the square of the front hall, the Imperial Guards were still building their final defenses. The Taiping Army raised their shields and stepped forward. Then rounds of arrows rained down, and countless corpses were laid out.
As the Taiping Army strode forward, the corpses were moved away. Zhang Yan rushed to the front and kicked open the door of the hall with the last kick.
With that loud noise, the Taiping Army poured into the palace. Zhang Yan was walking at the front. When he raised his eyes, he saw a man in emperor's clothes, and there was resentment in his eyes. This was the foolish emperor who brought trouble to the world.
But he did nothing. Instead, he stood beside him with his head slightly bowed respectfully. The emperor and all the ministers trembled as they looked at these ferocious Taiping soldiers.
"That's Commander Qu of the Taiping Army!"
Seeing Zhang Yan's actions, everyone knew in their hearts that he was waiting for the thief to show his face.
A group of Qushuai walked into the hall, all with high spirits. When they saw Zhang Yan, they either stood next to Zhang Yan or stood opposite Zhang Yan. These Qushuai all lowered their heads and tied their hands, standing quietly.
No one made any sound. This scene was quite strange. It was obvious that the two sides were facing life and death, but it was extremely quiet, if you ignore the cold sweat on the bodies of the ministers and the emperor.
Ta-ta-ta-ta.
Luo Xiao walked forward calmly. Every step he took was exactly the same distance. There were countless thoughts and emotions in his heart. He never imagined that his life would be like this.
The emperor and the ministers in the palace only saw a figure full of heroic spirit appearing in front of the hall. The man's face could only be regarded as ordinary, but he had a pair of eyes that were as bright as the stars in the sky.
His temperament seems to be able to accommodate the whole world, and there is a sense of grandeur in every move of his hands and feet.
Luo Xiao walked into the palace. At the top were the Emperor and Queen He, and below the Emperor were dozens of ministers.
The emperor's face was very pale, and his eyes were livid. It seemed that he had not had a good rest these days. Queen He was still a beautiful woman, but a little haggard. Some of the ministers were lost, some had calm expressions, and some had a determined expression of death. Some of them had flattering smiles on their faces.
Luo Xiao walked straight forward and then walked to the center of the hall. He wore a ceremonial sword on his waist, stood with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "Emperor, ministers of the Han Dynasty, you must know my name, Zhang Jiao.
But I prefer another name.
The Lord of Heaven.
Chengtian was ordered to be number one in the world. "
The emperor and the ministers trembled when they heard this. If they had heard these eight words when the Taiping Army first started revolting, they would have laughed, but now, this is the fact.
Luo Xiao slowly pulled out the ceremonial sword from his waist, and his voice was very calm, "I was born in this world to tell the world that Han Ting's destiny has been lost, and now is the time to do this.
Emperor of the Han Dynasty, leave your throne, take your queen, and come to me. "
The words were obviously so light, but the undoubtiness in them was unmistakable. The emperor was so frightened that he did not dare to go down, for fear that Zhang Jiao would kill him with a sword.
Luo Xiao saw this and didn't care. The more frightened the emperor was, the better. There was even a smile on his face, and there was infinite ridicule in his words, "Queen, bring your husband here."
Queen He trembled when she heard the words, and she suppressed the fear in her heart. She knew that she was not qualified to reject the person in front of her, so she dragged the emperor and walked down from the height tremblingly.
There was infinite fear on the beautiful face, the chest was rising and falling, and the heart in the chest was beating crazily.
"Kneel down."
It was still such a calm voice, but it once again plunged the palace into silence, making Zhu Xiazi kneel down?
The emperor and Queen He were dumbfounded, and the ministers in the palace were extremely shocked. Some people could not bear it anymore and said angrily: "Zhang Jiao, how dare you let the emperor of all Xia kneel in front of you?
Aren't you afraid that the supreme and holy King Su will go to heaven to blame you? "
This is the voice of everyone in the palace. Although their life and death are in Luo Xiao's hands, it is really outrageous to ask Zhu Xiazi to kneel down.
The smile on Luo Xiao's face stopped, and his expression suddenly became stern, and he said sternly: "What Zhu Xiazi?
Hanting lost its destiny!
Where is the emperor?
I started my army from Jizhou and started my business so fast that I was even faster than Henkel. Do you people think that I, Zhang Jiao, am really invincible?
This is God's will, and I am just respectfully executing God's will.
As long as the emperor is still alive, the Han Dynasty will be in danger.
With the addition of you ministers who are like insects, how can the Han Dynasty survive?
So it was a complete failure.
You are still lying here about what kind of princes you are, kneel down! "
Queen He was shocked by Luo Xiao's powerful aura and knelt directly at Luo Xiao's feet. The emperor's legs and feet went weak, and he almost collapsed.
"His Majesty!"
Seeing that the emperor and the empress were really kneeling in front of Zhang Jiao, one of the ministers let out a cry of sorrow, stood up suddenly, and cried out: "The Lord has humiliated me, die! The Lord has humiliated me, die!"
After saying that, he hit his head against a pillar and died in the palace. This sudden change made the palace quiet. Luo Xiao said lightly: "There are still strong ministers, but it is a pity that it is not worth dying for the faint king."
As he spoke, he directly used the ceremonial sword to lift the crown on the emperor's head to the ground. The crown symbolizing the emperor fell to the ground. The falling beads, ticking, seemed to hit everyone's hearts. .
The man's destiny has really disappeared!
This message made everyone despair. These orthodox scholar-bureaucrats were obsessed with fame and fortune, but they were also very loyal to the court. After a few more roars, three people could not accept this reality and died directly in the palace. A faint smell of blood spread. Come on.
"Father, emperor, mother."
Suddenly a very childish voice came from behind, Liu He suddenly ran out, and then he saw many fierce people with weapons in the palace, and there was blood on the ground. His father, emperor, and mother were kneeling together. He was still holding his sword in front of a very fierce person.
Liu He was frightened immediately, and then burst into tears. Guan Hai was very upset, so he asked in a low voice: "Tao Master, do you want to deal with him?"
The emperor was still in a state of despair. When Queen He heard this, she was shocked and frightened. She quickly crawled forward two steps, reached out and grabbed the tail of Luo Xiao's robe, and said in a mournful voice: "Tao Master, He'er It's a child, please spare his life.
As long as you can spare the emperor's life, I will never disobey anything I am willing to do. "
When a woman says she can do anything, she actually means one thing.
Queen He knew very well that her status as the mother of a country was an irresistible temptation for most men, especially since she was very beautiful, and Zhang Jiao was a peasant army leader with a relatively low-level background. She had great I was sure that Zhang Jiao would agree and leave their orphans and widowed mothers alive.
Queen He's words shocked everyone again, and the look of humiliation on the faces of the ministers in the palace was simply unspeakable.
Although the concept of chastity is basically non-existent now, the concept of loyalty is very important. After separation, you can do whatever you want without anyone caring about you, but when you are still together, it is necessary to ensure loyalty.
In the corners of the palace, the historian risked his life to perform his duties.
But after thinking about Queen He's words, he still didn't decide whether to remember them. After all, there was nothing wrong with this sentence on the surface. It would be distorted if he directly wrote about recommending himself as a pillow mat and serving as a thief. But if he doesn't remember it like this, There is no need for this kind of nonsense to go into history books.
When Guan Hai, Zhang Yan and other commanders of the Taiping Army heard this, their eyes lit up. She was the queen!
But when I think of the holiness of the Taoist master, what do I think of the queen?
No one in this world is worthy of the Taoist Lord!
If there are, they must be those legendary strange women, those beautiful and immortal women who are born with supernatural powers.
"You bitch!"
The emperor, who had been offline, suddenly came to his senses. Unexpectedly, right next to him, the queen was preparing to wear a big cuckold on him, and couldn't help but slap her.
Queen He was slapped hard to the ground, her cheeks were red, but she was not angry, but taunted: "You are a fool, and there are all the princes in the palace.
You control the power of the world, but you have ended up like this.
If you men weren't useless, how could we women end up in this situation?
If you had one-tenth of this horn's talent, would the Taiping Army put their swords on our necks now?
My prince is only four years old. He has not seen how beautiful this world is. Is he going to die like this?
I don't want him to die!
I want him to live to see this beautiful world. What's wrong with me? ! "
Queen He's voice resounded throughout the hall, and Luo Xiao couldn't help but laugh.
It's really... wonderful.

After Jiao entered the palace and humiliated the emperor and the ministers, he knelt down and worshiped, saying: "The world is in decline and there is a real shortage of talents from the king. The king has great political power and whips the world. Concubines and everyone else only rely on the king's will. How dare they disobey?" "——"Book of the Later Han·Biography of Zhang Jiao"
