My surname is Wang, my neighbor Wu Dalang

Takashi Fujiwara sighed inwardly.

In fact, he still had something to say and didn't know how to say it to Emperor Sutoku in front of him.

Seiko Fujiwara clearly stated in her biography that she has been accepted by Emperor Yan as a concubine, and she will spare no effort to intercede in front of Emperor Yan and strive for the greatest retreat for the Fujiwara family.

And her marriage with Chongde was naturally annulled because of this.

In the letter, Fujiwara Seiko repeatedly advised Fujiwara to respect current affairs and leave Ping'an capital to submit to the Yan army, so as to prevent the Yan emperor from slaughtering Ping'an capital.

But the arrogant Fujiwara Jing, how could he surrender without a fight.

Besides, if the Ping'an capital and the emperor were handed over to the Yan people, Dongying would be tantamount to destroying the country.

At this moment, his father, Fujiwara Tadamichi, who is leading the three coalition forces in a bloody battle with the Yan army on Kyushu Island, and the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Fujiwara family, will all be sacrificed.

Therefore, when Takashi Fujiwara entered the palace to meet Emperor Sutoku, he had already arranged a careful plan to defend the city, preparing to defend Heiankyo and wait for help.

When Takashi Fujiwara was discussing with Chongde, he suddenly felt the earth tremble, and the roar of horseshoes was like thunder in the sky from far to near. Takashi Fujiwara's face changed suddenly, knowing that the Yan army had begun to approach the city, he could no longer care about continuing the discussion with Chongde Regarding the matter of the Holy Son, he hurriedly passed the letter of Fujiwara Seiko to Chongde, and then rushed out of the palace, leading the forbidden army straight to the tower.

Chongde's face was frightened, and when he finished reading Fujiwara Seiko's biography, a deep shame and resentment involuntarily appeared on his face.

As Emperor Dongying, his future queen was forcibly accepted as a concubine by Emperor Yan. Chongde looked up and cried out, and went back to the bedroom angrily, closed the door tightly, and wailed in the palace.

In fact, he has no feelings for Seiko Fujiwara, it's just about his emperor's authority and face.

The Japanese dignitaries outside the palace became even more panicked when they heard the emperor's weeping tears from inside the palace. These people led their warriors to the tower.

At such a critical juncture, few people would consider the emperor's safety.

Even, almost all the people in Ping'an capital had boarded the tower of Ping'an capital, and in Nuoda's Dongying Imperial Palace, there was a dead silence.

Even the servants and maids around the emperor began to pack their bags secretly, preparing to flee Heianjing.

……

The red sun hangs high.

The solemn and solemn city wall of Ping'an capital is towering and majestic.

Wang Lin laughed lightly on the horse, looked around Fujiwara Seiko and said, "I never thought that the capital of your Dongying people is exactly the same as my Dayan City."

Fujiwara Seiko looked complicated, and said lightly: "Returning to Your Majesty, Ping'an Jing was built after Sui and Tang Chang'an. It is said that many of the craftsmen in those days were from the Central Plains. At that time, I sent Tang envoys from Dongying to travel thousands of miles every year to cross the sea and go to Han. .”

Wang Lin said indifferently: "Your Dongying characters, clothes, customs, and customs are all influenced by the Central Plains culture. Without Chinese culture, you Dongying people must still be drinking blood. It's just that later on, you Dongying people became arrogant and stopped asking Middle-earth is a vassal."

Fujiwara Seiko slowly lowered his head.

To Yan Huang's words, she was irrefutable.

She couldn't deny that Dongying people were greatly influenced by the Central Plains.

They once regarded the Central Plains as their upper state and called themselves vassals.

However, this was all hundreds of years ago.

After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Central Plains declined and the Central Plains Dynasty declined, and the Dongying people gradually no longer regarded China in their eyes.

Wang Lin looked up at the gate tower of Ping'an Jing, and saw the flags of the Dongying army flying around, and there were Dongying soldiers and horses waiting in full battle on the four walls, and on the tower of the Suzaku Gate in the middle, there were even dense groups of Dongying people looking at the city below the city. Yan army formation.

Wang Lin knew very well that with the nature of the Dongying people, it was almost impossible for the Dongying people to surrender without a fight.

In other words, if he wanted to take Ping'an capital without bloodshed and take away the Emperor Dongying, he had to break Ping'an capital.

In this raid on Ping'an capital, Wang Lin's troops did not carry siege equipment. With such light cavalry alone, it is conceivable that it would be extremely difficult to break through such a large city.

But Wang Lin was already prepared.

Wang Lin glanced at Fujiwara Seiko, and said calmly: "Miss Seiko, it seems that your letter of transmission is not effective. Your elder brother Fujiwara Takashi and the Japanese nobles in the city have never taken me seriously. In this case, Then don’t blame me for being cruel. When the city is broken, everything will be destroyed.”

Seiko Fujiwara's face was gloomy, and he bowed on the horse and said quietly: "Your Majesty, please be magnanimous and leave a way out for my Fujiwara family."

Wang Lin roared loudly and waved his hands.

Yan Qing immediately ordered the officers beside him to blow the resounding bugle horn.

The five thousand brocade cavalry roared earth-shatteringly on their backs, and immediately galloped towards the majestic city of Ping'an Jing in a neat formation. The Dongying people thought that the Yan army had begun to attack the city, so they naturally drew up their bows and arrows, ready to face the battle, but they saw the Yan army When the iron cavalry formation was about to enter the range of the bows and arrows of the Japanese soldiers, they were suddenly divided into left and right teams like a tide, and then the brocade cavalry marched at high speed with their bows and arrows, shooting dense rockets into the city.

This is the latest individual rocket launcher that has been presided over by the emperor himself. Based on the magic arrows of the Song Dynasty, it has been repeatedly improved by the Weapons Manufacturing Department of the Ministry of Industry.

"The method of making is a tube made of alum paper, filled with gunpowder, and sealed with fire block oil paper to prevent rain. A hole in the back is used to fill the wire, and bamboo is used as the stem. The iron arrows are clustered like swallowtails, without feathers. , put two or three arrows into a large bamboo tube. Looking at the enemy and burning fire, you can shoot a hundred paces to benefit the wind, but not against the wind. It can be used in both water and land warfare. It can be used in water warfare to burn the boat canopy, and in land warfare can destroy the nest. If you are poisoned, you will die."

Of course, subject to the current level of technology and craftsmanship, the lethality of this rocket is actually not satisfactory.

But it is used in Heian capital at this moment, in this dry and hot season, not only can it easily cause a fire in the city, but it can also use the wind to spread poisonous gas.

The Yan army did not attack by force, but just marched around the four gates of Ping'an capital in a column of troops, and fired rockets into the city.

Dense rockets flew across the air, falling into the city like locusts one after another. Not long after, fires broke out everywhere in Ping'an capital, and thick smoke billowed.

Seiko Fujiwara's face suddenly became a little startled.

She thought that the Yan army was going to lead an army to attack Ping'an capital, but she didn't expect that the Yan army was just going around the city to demonstrate and shoot arrows into the city. She saw the flames in Ping'an capital, people screaming, horses neighing, ghosts crying and wolves howling. If you don't believe it, just by relying on these waves of arrow rain, can you force the defenders in the east of the city to surrender?

……

But Seiko Fujiwara did not expect that the rockets of the Yan Army would have a miraculous effect. Instead of being extinguished, the fire in Pingan Jingzhong exploded more and more. At least within Seiko Fujiwara's field of vision, four or five places were soaring into the sky, dyed red Most of the sky.

Fujiwara Seiko suddenly turned his head to look at Wang Lin, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "Could it be that His Majesty has already sent people to infiltrate the Ping'an capital and set fires everywhere, and the Yan army's rocket launch is just to cover people's eyes and ears?"

Wang Lin laughed loudly, but he did not speak.
