Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 82 Three Arrows to Conquer Liangzhou!
Rumble!
The clouds collided and thunder roared.

The yellow sand all around was blown up by the wind, rolling all over the sky...

Almost covering the sky and the sun!
Liu Che could hardly imagine that this scene was actually happening right in front of him at this moment.

"Once or twice would be fine, but could it be that the Emperor's grandson Jing is really blessed by God?" Even Huo Guang, who kept his distance from ghosts and gods, could not help but exclaim in horror after personally sensing it.

But Liu Che suddenly thought of something and looked up again.

He used his sleeves to block the wind and sand beside him and tried hard to look.

I saw the clouds overlapping and the rumbling sound continued.

but.

There were no raindrops at all!
And he suddenly remembered something that they had already considered before.

That is... this problem cannot be solved by just raining.

after all!

Those maniacs are not good people. They will not put down their butcher knives just because it rains.

unless……

Just like that night, the golden dome of thunder and fire appeared, and bolts of lightning accurately struck and killed those who were colluding with the Huns!
But how is this possible?

As he was thinking, he suddenly thought:

Liu Jing had said before that the Yinmi City here was a "land of auspiciousness" and could be used to summon rain. Although he didn't know how Liu Jing judged it, maybe it was really God's blessing, or maybe it was some kind of perception and prayer for rain!

However, it is impossible that the thunder and fire that were even more magnificent than the one seen on the Divine Platform that night would appear!

Otherwise, he would rather believe that the grandson of the Liu family is a real immortal!

As for all this, the Taoist priest Li Shaoweng once said: Emperor Jing’s grandson did receive auspicious signs…

Perhaps, it is the remaining influence of the "divine turtle given by God"?

Liu Jing thought about this silently, and then, somehow, he recalled the poem again...

Is this really a prophecy from heaven?
"Your Majesty, it hasn't rained yet!"

At this moment, Huo Guang had recovered from his shock.

He looked at Liu Che, and obviously thought of some troubles, and said worriedly: "What's more, even if it rains, it is impossible for them to put down their butcher knives."

……

at the same time.

Countless people looked up in astonishment. Although the yellow sand covered their eyes and blocked their vision, they could still hear with their ears, feel with their bodies, and even if they looked hard enough, they could see the gradually gathering clouds.

And the next moment, their eyes were all filled with surprise.

"rain!"

"It is going to rain?"

Everyone's expression was filled with disbelief, and then they realized something and immediately looked ahead at the figure that had been covered in the yellow sand.

When the other party appeared just now, he said that he was the grandson of Emperor Jing, but no one believed him.

And now...

"Grandson of the Emperor Jing! It's really the Grandson of the Emperor Jing!"

"It must be the grandson of Emperor Jing! I've heard rumors before, and this was the case in the capital before."

"Call the wind and call the rain, Liangzhou is saved, we are saved!"

I just cheered for a long time, but no rain fell.
As soon as I saw the clouds brewing, I became even more excited!

And the other side.

"Brother, what should we do?"

Around the burly man, everyone's robes were rustling, and the strong wind made their bodies sway, so that they couldn't even hold the bows in their hands steadily.

"Did you hit it?"

"It seems not. The sudden strong wind just now blew everything off the track!"

"Damn it!" the man shouted coldly, "Let alone the wind and rain, even if it rains knives, we have to take this city!"

"But...if those disaster victims don't listen to us."

"Then use our people! Besides, what they want is food. Even if it rains, can drinking fill them up? Besides, it's not raining yet!"

"Go ask the Second in Command whether they have finished building the siege equipment!"

"And then they bring all our food here. I don't believe it. Do they want food or rain?"

"Find those who are starving to death, with their families, and add our people, it will be enough!"

The burly man was saying...

Suddenly, he stretched out his palm, and after feeling it for a moment, he found that there was no sign of moisture.

Before it rained, he had an idea!
Then he laughed out loud, "Damn it, when I woke up this morning, I felt that the wind was not right. It made me squint. Now the wind is just a little stronger. Why are you pretending to be the grandson of the Emperor Jing?"

"Have you never heard of rocks falling from the top of a mountain? Do you really think it's thunder? Let's open our eyes and take a look at the clouds in the sky. Do they look like thunder?"

When he finished speaking, the people around him obviously understood what he meant.

Suddenly, more similar voices echoed among the crowd.

"Don't be fooled by him. Our Liangzhou area is originally windy and sandy... Now we are cheering for a long time but there is no rain!"

"Isn't this the weather in Liangzhou? Besides, with such a strong wind, the clouds will be blown away sooner or later!"

Similar sounds came one after another.

However, at first, they failed to convince the people at all.

But the waiting time was too long, a whole incense stick of time passed.

The sand is still rolling...

But when I looked closely, there was no rain at all...

It was not until the wind and sand gradually died down that someone hurried to look.

I saw that all the victims around me lowered their heads. Some had already squatted down and wrapped their eyes with clothes, as if they were worried about the wind and sand getting into their eyes.

And just then...

"Where is the Emperor's grandson?"

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the front of the crowd.

When everyone heard the voice, they subconsciously looked in the direction where Liu Jing was before, and they saw...

no one!

"The grandson of Emperor Jing has entered the city!"

"He just took advantage of the strong sandstorm and ran into the city!"

"When did the door open?"

"He lied to us, he is not the grandson of Emperor Jing at all!"

"But...but...why is the wind blowing? Why is there thunder?"

For a moment, the crowd below was all panicked, not knowing what to do...

……

And at the same time.

Inside Yinmi City, Liu Jing looked at the man in front of him. He was over forty years old, with a long beard, and looked like a scholar, but now he was standing in armor.

"Grandson Jing!" He bowed his head and called him respectfully.

Then he asked anxiously: "Are you really here alone? Without a large army, we can't break the siege here!"

"Who are you?" Liu Jing was a little confused at the moment.

Just now, he was standing at the gate of Yinmi City. Under the yellow sand, the gate suddenly opened quietly, and then the person in front of him let him in.

He originally wanted to enter the Yinmi City this time, so when he saw this, he went in without thinking.

It was only after he came in that he discovered that the other party seemed to recognize him and identified his identity at once - it was not because he took the initiative to say "Grandson of Emperor Jing" outside that he recognized him, but that he should have recognized him long ago.

"I am Di Chun, the current governor of Liangzhou. My brother Di Shan was once the teacher of the Crown Prince of Wei! I have been to the Crown Prince's Palace and met with Your Highnesses."

Di Chun spoke hurriedly, and then said: "I have heard about what the grandson of Emperor Jing did in the capital, but as I said just now, auspicious signs alone cannot solve the siege."

Governor?

Liu Jing suddenly remembered...

By the way, Liu Che's reforms in the government system and local control definitely left a template for later emperors.

In this era when the county system and the feudal system coexisted...even the vassal states had "real power".

After Emperor Liu Che issued the Enfeoffment Order, he divided the entire country, excluding the capital area, into thirteen provinces.

Each state sent out a governor.

The governor at this time, unlike in later generations, did not have his own "mansion". He was just like an imperial envoy, responsible for touring and supervising the political and military affairs of each county!
He had never heard of the name Di Chun.

However, Di Shan had heard of this and once advised Emperor Wu not to raise troops to attack the Huns.

Therefore, he was sent directly by Emperor Wu to the front line of Wuyuan County guarded by Li Guangli, and then was killed by the Huns.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

But Liu Jing’s action is not over yet!

Coincidentally, he was just worried about not being able to enter the Yinmi City.

After all, it was said before that Yinmi City is a "auspicious" place!
He had been moving closer and closer to the dark place, hoping to delay time and accumulate more lucky coins.

I also want to find a better reason for this "rainfall".

Of course, what is more important is that at this moment, Yinmi City has become a "key node" in the situation between the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu, and the four counties of Hexi!
And control this key node.

It is equivalent to changing the situation in the entire Hexi Corridor!
Once you change with all your strength!
Then, in a sense, perhaps it can be identified as an echo of history, lighting up achievements!

Before this, he had predicted that whether Yinmi City could be defended was a yes or no.

And now...

Where he is, the previous results can certainly be changed!

Liu Jing also knew that relying on "rain" alone was not enough to convince people. He could only ease the emotions of the victims as soon as possible and stop them from heading towards the capital!

However, to solve the current dilemma, rain is not enough, other methods must be used!

"Where do we get on the city wall?" Liu Jing asked impatiently. Seeing his strong attitude, Di Chun immediately took Liu Jing there...

Soon.

Liu Jing climbed up the city wall and immediately looked down.

now.

The situation below changed drastically. Although the yellow sand was still rolling, looking up, the clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker.

But the victims below were like crazy, all rushing towards the city gate. It seemed that because of the scene just now, they first felt hope, and then completely despair!

Just rush to attack the city gate regardless of the consequences!
"boom!"

"Bang! Bang!"

There was a noisy and dull sound coming from the city gate. If these people could really work together, and if there were more people, Liu Jing was really worried that if they continued to ram like this, the city gate would really be knocked open...

"The grandson of Emperor Jing has come out!"

Just at this moment, someone saw him and immediately shouted.

In an instant.

The people who were still banging on the door paused, and then there were roars.

"What kind of grandson of Emperor Jing is he? He's nothing but a liar!"

"Run in while the sand is still blowing..."

"kill!"

Liu Jing could not hear any more sounds. After all, at the moment, the shouts of killing were louder than anything else.

Liu Jing looked at his palm again.

From the very beginning, the changes on the lucky coin gradually increased.

The "particles" that have gradually solidified from the original golden color to khaki are becoming more and more numerous, and they only appear on the back of "No".

For a moment, Liu Jing couldn't tell what it would become.

Therefore, Liu Jing did not use all his luck to make it rain heavily!
What's more, he knew clearly that this time the situation could not be changed by celestial phenomena.

A rainstorm may solve the temporary difficulties of the victims, but it cannot solve the difficulties of Yinmi City, let alone those who are attacking the city!

The lucky coin can only work on oneself. When the heaven punished Tan He...

He just let the thunder fall, but he had no say on where it fell.

Looking around Yinmi City, it was just a desert and there was no place to attract lightning.

Therefore.

Even if thunder strikes, it will probably be useless!

Thinking about these...

Liu Jing didn't stop at all.

This time!

His solution was actually very simple!
Now standing on a high place, you can overlook everything below.

"Everyone..."

He didn't care if anyone could hear him...

He took out the hard bow from his body!

"I've said it before, Yinmi City is a place of good fortune, and we must not attack it again!"

"I came to Yinmi City just to... pray for rain!"

"How can we pray for rain when we are outside the city?"

"If you continue to attack Yinmi City like this, it will not be a good omen, but a disaster!"

Below, everyone who heard his words stopped.

But soon, another sound was heard!

"Don't listen to him, he's a liar!"

“It’s not raining yet…”

"Don't even mention whether it will rain or not. We need to eat now. Even if it rains, what's the point?"

"Yes! Rain is useless now, continue to attack the city gate."

As they were talking, those people seemed to be getting restless again.

And this time, Liu Jing was also angry.

He found that his attitude just now tended to be softer and did not conform to the rigid standards.

Simply change your attitude.

"Anyone who takes another step forward will be considered a traitor and killed!"

The words fell!

Liu Jing took out the longbow from his back and stared at the source of the sound that had repeatedly persuaded the people around him to continue attacking the city...

Tell the truth.

Liu Jing's archery skills were not ideal.

But this doesn't mean that his archery skills are bad!

because……

To some extent, archery is also luck!

The arrow is on the string, draw the bow and shoot!
"Whoosh!"

There was only a sound of breaking air, and the man who had just been shouting and inciting others to continue attacking was pierced directly in the forehead by an arrow!
With a "dong" sound...

He fell to the ground instantly.

The sound was not loud, but it seemed to strike into everyone's hearts.

because.

This is not like before, when the attackers and defenders attacked each other, the situation was chaotic, and then they lost their minds...

Instead, it was the grandson of Emperor Jing, whom they had been paying attention to, who suddenly shot an arrow and hit the most "ideological" one among them in the forehead!
For a moment, without that man's instigation, they seemed to calm down.

however……

Liu Jing didn't stop at all.

He looked down again.

His voice was cold and this time, he was not discussing, but really giving orders!
"It is up to the sky to rain..."

"And before that, take ten steps back!"

now.

Beside Liu Jing, the governor Di Chun saw this scene and quickly looked at the guards around him.

Immediately, shouts of questioning rang out!

"Grandson Jing's order, retreat ten steps!"

"Ten steps back!"

……

Below, the disaster victims saw this, and also saw dark clouds gathering in the dome, becoming thicker and thicker!
I couldn't help but believe it temporarily and slowly backed away.

"Don't believe it..." But at this time, someone saw this and started shouting again in the crowded place!
moment!

Liu Jing turned around, drew his bow and shot an arrow. His movements were smooth and flowing, and then another arrow was shot!
Whoosh!
Hit the center of the eyebrows again!

"You are starving now. The court has not made any guarantees before, but it will definitely make some guarantees later!"

"Today, my arrow may kill people, but it is also saving people!"

"Ten more steps back!"

……

"Ten more steps back!"

The guards beside him continued to shout...

The victims retreated!
……

"Back fifty steps!"

Liu Jing simply stood on the top of the city wall and continued shouting!

"Back fifty steps!"

The guards' voices rang out again, and at the same time, seeing that it was working, their expressions also became excited!
On the other side, the burly man said, "Brother, what...what should we do?"

"Damn it! Let our people take the lead! I don't believe it. This place is at least 150 steps away from the city gate. Let's charge 50 steps straight ahead and see if anyone will follow us then!"

"Third brother, go ahead!"

"it is good!"

As he was speaking, the man called Lao San stood up and waved his hand, "Charge!"

On the city wall, Liu Jing looked up with stern eyes, he was always looking down.

Everyone was retreating, but suddenly someone moved forward and was discovered by him.

Hold the arrow high in your hand!

He shouted again:

"Those who deceive the people will be regarded as defectors to the Huns and will be killed!"

Whoosh!
The bowstring was like a full moon, and the next moment, it flew high into the sky.

After reaching a certain arc, it instantly falls down...

With gravity and the inertia of forward movement...

puff!
The man called "Old Third" and others just raised their hands and shouted, then rushed forward three or five steps.

Immediately, the arrow hit him again between the eyebrows...

Everything is silent!
