Chapter 125: The Man Who Fears the Son of Heaven

At this time, Yuan Zhao Tianzi's mind has been completely on firearms, and even to the point of the magic barrier, as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, he has at least one or two hours a day to stay in the prison, because the prison is not enough, he also mobilized nearly a thousand craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry, and rushed to make the heavenly thunder developed by the supervisor day and night.

Now, if you want to make the kind of thunder in the southwest that can be used by catapults, it is too late in time, and what the imperial court can do is to make as many thunderbolts as possible that will be supervised and produced, so that even if you can't attack the city, you can ensure that the guards of the capital are impregnable.

After all, when the heavenly thunder thing was first made, it was when it was guarding Hanzhou City, and dozens or hundreds of heavenly thunderbolts were thrown down from the city wall, and the enemy was about to lie down in a large area, which was much better than the effect of boiling oil with golden juice.

In order to ensure the safety of the prisoner, the Son of Heaven also transferred all the Qianniu Guards, one of the three guards, to the vicinity of the prison to protect the safety of the prisoner.

Logically speaking, if the capital had a large number of heavenly thunders, the Southwest Army would not be able to break through the capital in any case if the number of people was insufficient, but the imperial court only roughly figured out what materials were needed to make gunpowder at the end of last year, and added some more materials that were not originally needed, which led to the fact that the gunpowder material reserves in the capital were not particularly large.

It is true that the number of the southwest army is not enough, and it cannot enclose the capital, so it can only block the west gate of the capital, and the other three sides of the capital, especially the east gate, can still enter and exit, but in this situation where the southwest army is close to the city, once a large number of horse teams enter the capital, whether it is materials for transporting gunpowder or necessities such as food, they will definitely be discovered by the southwest army, unless the forbidden army is willing to send troops to protect these horse teams, otherwise the materials must not be sent in.

Moreover, the heavenly thunder of the imperial court, compared with the heavenly thunder in the southwest, is ultimately less powerful, and it is still unknown who can support the two sides to the end.

Li Shuo's Ningzhou army, after shelling the capital for three days, finally stopped for a day, and on the fourth day, the Ningzhou army rested in place and no longer sent catapults to bombard the city wall.

At the same time, the old man Ram Shu also returned to the capital from Luzhou, and entered Beijing from the scarred West City Gate.

The old man, when passing by the west city wall, took a look at the scarred city wall and sighed slightly.

When Ye Lan went out of the city to see Li Xin, he was still sneaky, but Ram Shu was a "messenger" sent out by the imperial court, and when he returned to Beijing, he was immediately taken into the imperial city.

After the old man entered the side hall, he bowed to the Son of Heaven and said, "I have seen Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Yuanzhao was not wearing the clothes of the Son of Heaven at this time, but just wearing an ordinary white robe, he personally walked down the steps, helped the ram Shu up, and took a deep breath: "Old Xiangguo, how are you talking with the Southwest Army?" ”

The Great Jin Dynasty, which has been strong for decades, was beaten to the capital by the enemy, and hundreds of thousands of Gyeonggi forbidden troops could not hold out, and they were bombed indiscriminately for three days, all kinds of pressure were pressed on the head of Yuan Zhao Tianzi, he is only a young man in his early twenties this year, although he is trying to maintain an image of a calm and breezy Son of Heaven on the surface, but how can he not panic in his heart?

He was not only afraid, he was even scared to death.

Because he is facing Li Xin, his own teacher, and the invincible Marquis of Jing'an in the Great Jin Dynasty!

When he was only three or four years old, Li Xin assisted Taikang Tianzi to complete the Renchen Palace Change, and since then, he, the prince, has grown up listening to Li Xin's stories, and he has been in the Jing'an Hou Mansion for so many years, almost comparable to the time in the East Palace, and Li Xin's image in his heart is extremely tall.

Even after he became the emperor, he was still a little afraid of Li Xin in his heart.

It was not until after the change of Shen Yan that several auxiliary ministers left the court one after another, and Li Xin himself left the capital and returned to Yongzhou, and the emperor of Yuan Zhao slowly mastered the core power of the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army and the imperial court, and felt that his own strength had far surpassed that of Li Xin, the teacher, so he slowly let go of some awe.

But now, the Southwest Army has smashed the self-confidence in the heart of this young man with an almost invincible attitude, and even made him a little afraid to face the reality of the Southwest Army soldiers coming to the city, so he can only bury his head in the prison and bury it in the firearm of the prisoner, so as to barely feel at ease.

At this time, he wanted Ram Shu to bring back some good news. Wen Ting Pavilion

Ram Shu first looked at the few Zaifu around him, then looked at the Son of Heaven, and shook his head slightly: "Your Majesty, the conditions proposed by Marquis Li are too harsh, don't mention it, the old man means that the imperial court is still actively preparing for war, and it is no longer possible to talk about it." ”

The Son of Heaven also looked left and right, and said to the other Zaifu: "Zhuqing will avoid it for the time being, and I will talk to Lao Xiangguo." ”

After several Zaifu left, there were only two people left in the side hall, an old man and a young man, and the Son of Heaven looked at Ram Shu, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"I ...... Abdication is possible. ”

Yuan Zhaotianzi's thin lips trembled faintly, and his voice was low: "Master Li can't get used to me, the Son of Heaven, I can...... Take the sixth brother into the capital and give him the position, he is my brother, and it doesn't matter who of our brothers will do this position. ”

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven took a deep breath.

"As long as the Southwest Army withdraws its troops, I will immediately issue an edict to abdicate, and at the same time, the imperial court will not hold the Southwest Army accountable...... I can also take one last step back and recognize the Southwest as a state..."

It is already a great shame for the Great Jin Dynasty to be forced to abdicate by the anti-thieves, but at present, the emperor of Yuan Zhao has no other way to go, and the imperial court is not sure to deal with the southwest army...... Or that he, Li Yan, was not sure how to deal with his teacher.

He...... Scared.

Ram Shu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Marquis Li insisted that the Southwest Army be stationed in the capital, otherwise he would not agree to withdraw the troops, and the old minister told him that it is impossible to let the Southwest Army enter Beijing, which is equivalent to putting the artifact in the hands of others, and it is impossible for the court to compromise." ”

Speaking of this, the old man looked up at the Son of Heaven and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, what a hero Emperor Wu was when he conquered the south and the north? Now that it's only three or four generations, how can he lose the majesty of Emperor Wu? What the old man means is that letting the Southwest Army enter Beijing is no different from a frontal defeat, since this is the case, simply fight them to the end, and at worst, it is just the Southwest Army entering Beijing! ”

The Son of Heaven turned around and returned to his position, and after sitting down, he said with a bit of dejection: "The Gyeonggi Forbidden Army, can you really win the Southwest Army?" ”

Li ...... Believe him, since the age of seventeen, he has not fought a defeat, has not suffered a loss, he has been in the capital for more than ten years, in charge of the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army, he knows better than anyone what the capital is like, but even so, he still led troops to fight the capital. ”

He lowered his head and muttered to himself: "First the thunder, then the catapult, and the kind of iron pipe that can hurt people, no one knows how many things he has hidden......

"I ......"

The twenty-one-year-old Son of Heaven sat on his dragon couch, trembling slightly because of fear.

He already regretted it in his heart now.

If in the first year of Yuan Zhao, when Li Xin asked to depose the auxiliary ministers and ask him to govern in advance, he completely stood on Li Xin's side, and the current situation may not be like this.

At least it won't be that bad.

But now, this situation is beyond his control, and he even thinks of his father, who has been dead for more than five years.

Ram Shu saw this scene, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Your Majesty, don't panic,"
