979 Chapter 980 Meeting the Emperor
When Li Mingshun rushed to the palace, it was much calmer there.There were guards standing guard near the collapsed courtyard wall, and someone at the gate was waiting for Li Mingshun's arrival.

"General, Your Majesty is very annoyed, and his mood is unstable. You must be careful when you meet him." A waiter reminded Li Mingshun while leading him to where Zhao Kai was.

Li Mingshun's face was ugly, and he walked step by step.He knew that he had messed things up again this time, and there was a high probability that he would bear the anger of His Majesty the Emperor in a while.

But he was indeed wronged, because he really tried his best.The air defense posts everywhere did not call the police, and no one even saw aircraft or other aircraft.

In this case, what should he do?The Dahua Empire has more than 100 fighter jets responsible for air defense. Since Zhao Yu fled to Fengjiang, the alert level has been strengthened, but most of these planes don't know how to intercept them, and the palace suffered.

As the commander of the air defense force, Li Mingshun must rush over to meet Zhao Kai immediately, but in fact no one knows whether such attacks will continue.

The air defense siren has been sounding all the time, and I don't know when it will stop.Many people in the imperial capital have fled the city, and the rest can only be worried.

The power of the two cloud bombs was truly terrifying. Even 400 meters away from the center of the explosion, the walls collapsed due to the vibration.

This is the case with the wall of the prime minister's mansion, which was destroyed by the shock, and the prime minister heard that he was also frightened, and has been bedridden until now.

Seemingly concerned about the emperor's safety, the prime minister sent his two sons into the palace to visit, but they did not see Zhao Kai.

After the fuel of the cloud bomb was ignited, everything near the explosion center was incinerated, leaving no survivors within 200 meters.

Those who were directly shocked to death were the lucky ones, and a large number of corpses were burned to blackness. People in the buildings and buildings were suffocated to death due to lack of oxygen. The two destroyed places were simply purgatory on earth.

The people who went to handle these corpses were vomiting non-stop. Because it involved the palace, they did not dare to mobilize foreign troops to operate it. Therefore, many palace servants were forced to carry the corpses, which made them extremely painful. .

However, it is better to be alive than to be dead.They looked at the companions they knew lying in the building without any injuries, both grateful and terrified.

To be honest, who knows if the weapon used by the other party will explode... They found some fragments at the scene that were not from the palace, and some were even the size of an arm.

It was part of the shell wreckage of the missile. They were collected and placed on a white satin on one side, and on the other side were corpses, hundreds of corpses.

Under the guidance of the waiter, Li Mingshun came to the entrance of an underground bunker in the Imperial Palace of the Dahua Empire.The place is full of guards and maids with different expressions, and the gathering of whispering voices makes this place extremely noisy.

Several captains of the palace guards who were smoking saw Li Mingshun, immediately threw away their cigarette butts and stood at attention to salute.Li Mingshun was not in the mood to talk to them either, so he went straight down the steps.

The lights hanging on the wall were extremely dim, and the steps under my feet went down all the way down, and they only calmed down at a depth of more than ten meters underground.

In fact, this underground bunker is not qualified, and its depth is obviously not enough, but a lot of reinforced concrete was used in its construction, so it must be very strong.

It's a pity that if there is a cloud bomb or a powerful ground-penetrating bomb that hits here directly, it is estimated that the people hiding inside will not be spared.

This is not a spacious corridor, but it is still full of people of all kinds, including officers of the imperial guards, court officials with tense faces, and a few imperial doctors talking about something in the corner.

"General Li Mingshun is here!" The waiter at the door at the end of the corridor immediately sang loudly after seeing Li Mingshun, and then he pushed open the door to let Li Mingshun walk in.

When Li Mingshun saw Zhao Kai, Zhao Kai had already changed into a suit of clothes.Although he has cleaned up, the situation is still in a mess.

His head was injured, so he had a bandage on his head, and his shoulder was actually injured, so half of his upper body was naked, and the other half was also bandaged.

The most conspicuous thing was his leg. The imperial doctor and the best doctor he could find in the city helped him connect the broken bones. At this moment, the leg had already been cast in plaster.

This is really thanks to Datang Empire's medical contributions. With the increasing number of graduates from Datang Empire's medical school, the technological progress in medical technology around the world is obvious to all.

If it was in the past, Zhao Kai's injuries might have caused him to die of tetanus or infection, or even the broken leg might have killed Zhao Kai.

But now, at least in the Dahua Imperial Capital, there are still a few capable people who have studied modern medicine and can help Zhao Kai treat his wounds.

"Your Majesty!" Li Mingshun didn't know what to say, he knelt down and prostrated himself in front of Zhao Kai's bed as soon as he met.

Originally, he only heard that Zhao Kai was injured on the road, but he didn't expect that Zhao Kai's condition was worse than what he had estimated before.

So he blamed himself deeply, and there were tears in his eyes: "I am incompetent! I deserve death for my crimes!"

Unexpectedly, Zhao Kai didn't blame him, or at this moment, Zhao Kai didn't have any extra experience to scold Li Mingshun.He just said softly: "Back off, I'm tired and need to rest."

Li Mingshun wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Kai lying on the bed, he could only bow his head in silence, stood up and backed out.

After returning to the corridor, Li Mingshun had time to look at the crowd around him. He recognized Shen Chuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and several other Shangshus.

"How is your Majesty?" Seeing Li Mingshun coming out, someone stepped forward and asked. Li Mingshun said that His Majesty's condition was not bad, sent the other party away, and walked to several ministers.

"How is the prime minister?" Looking at Chu Muzhou's eldest son, Li Mingshun asked.Chu Muzhou's eldest son immediately replied: "My father was frightened, his body became hot and he couldn't move, so he can only let the two of us come here to greet His Majesty."

"Thank you, both of you." After Li Mingshun said something to Chu Muzhou's two sons, he looked at Jiang Run who was standing aside.

"Is the ambassador of the Great Tang Empire... still in the city?" Li Mingshun asked without knowing what to think.

Jiang Run glanced at Li Mingshun, and immediately explained the situation briefly: "The other party is still in the city... and someone deliberately handed us a statement that they only sold two missiles so far. If we persist in our obsession, they will Sell ​​more similar weapons to Toyoe."

"Missile?" Hearing a new vocabulary, Li Mingshun looked puzzled.He didn't know what a missile was, and he didn't even know which two characters the word missile was—maybe he could guess the word Tan, but he really couldn't guess the leading word.

However, when Li Mingshun heard that the Tang Empire had only sold two such bombs, he was somewhat relieved.

If there are a lot of such missiles, it is really a terrible thing.They don't know when to dodge, because the next time they attack the opponent, they may not have such good intentions, and they will notify Dahua in advance.

Jiang Run nodded, and repeated what he had just explained to Shen Chuan: "Yes, they call the new weapon a missile. It is not a bomber, but an ultra-long-range attack weapon that cannot be intercepted."

"Could it be a bluff?" Li Mingshun subconsciously asked again.

"Some witnesses saw the falling black shadow. It was not an ordinary bomb. It was much faster than the bomb... Moreover, when the two things fell, there were no planes in the sky. Using the intelligence analysis we now know , That thing really cannot be intercepted." Shen Chuan said with an ugly face.

He is really about to "remember his name in history". He is the first Minister of the Ministry of War to have the imperial capital attacked in almost hundreds of years.

Moreover, in the future, it is unknown how many such "missiles" will fall, and it will make him even more embarrassed if they land in the imperial capital.

"Witnesses? Are there many?" Li Mingshun was taken aback after hearing this, and then asked immediately.He felt that if there were many witnesses, there might be some other clues.

As Minister of the Ministry of War, Shen Chuan got some reports when he came: "At least tens of thousands of people saw it... At that time, many ordinary people crowded around the city gate, some people exclaimed, and everyone looked up and saw the falling black shadow .”

However, he didn't know too much news. Ordinary people only heard the sound of the explosion, and then saw the flames, and the falling black shadow with its trailing flames.

Many people have seen these things, so the testimony is surprisingly consistent.But the problem is that such testimony can only show that the thing fell from the sky, and there is no other intelligence help.

Li Mingshun confirmed again: "In other words, we really have no way to make any defense against this weapon?"

"That's what the ambassador of the Great Tang Empire said." Jiang Run Shangshu really believed what the Great Tang Empire said—at least until now, when the Great Tang Empire advertised its weapons, it was still very honest... …

Li Mingshun gritted his teeth, stared at Jiang Run and asked, "Isn't he afraid of death?"

Now he really wants to arrest all those bastards related to the Tang Empire and execute them to reassure the people and repay the emperor's favor.

Jiang Run naturally knew that the other party was asking about the envoy of the Tang Empire, so he could only speak comfortingly: "He is protected by law, General. If we attack him rashly, the Tang Empire may not be polite to us. "

Hearing what Jiang Run said, Li Mingshun immediately sneered twice: "They are not polite to us anymore."
