Chapter 480: King of the North(1/2)

Li Shimin looked at the ministers with a smile: "What's wrong?"

He looked at Lu Deming with a playful look, and then said, "Is it... I am wrong? Or... I have to reward and punish this Tang Dynasty, and I still have to decide if I have made a decision?"

Lu Deming quickly shook his head: "I am just... just..."

"You are just..." Li Shimin paused for a moment, and suddenly his eyes became sharp: "You just want me to obey you. Otherwise, I will be a foolish monarch. If everything is not up to your will, I will be the second Emperor Yang of Sui. If I don't obey your words, I will naturally be the king of the country that destroyed. But I want to ask, if I obey you in everything, then... who is the monarch and who is the minister between you and me? Lu Qing's family is right, so I will give it to you just the throne of the emperor. How about it?"

When Lu Deming heard this, he was already shivering. This was so heartbroken. He didn't know how to deal with it for a moment and said hurriedly: "I... I am too..."

Li Shimin said leisurely: "What is it? It's also for me? Is it my son easy to bully, or is it easy to bully me?"

"What?" Lu Deming looked at Li Shimin in surprise. At this time, he felt a danger approaching quietly.

The crime of deceiving the monarch?

Lu Deming said: "I... I will die."

Li Shimin looked at him coldly: "Are you still standing still after death?"

In fact, Li Shimin's body was very weak. Every time he said something, the sound of breathing came with it, which clearly meant that his body was overwhelmed.

But... in Lu Deming's opinion, Li Shimin gave him pressure like Mount Tai. He felt that the weak person in front of him made him breathless!

When Lu Deming heard this, he actually knew... His Majesty was insulting himself.

A soldier can be killed but not humiliated!

I, Lu Deming, is a great scholar, a doctor of Imperial College in the Tang Dynasty, and my disciples and officials are all over the world. I am a noble man from a famous family. How could I be insulted like this?

He subconsciously wanted to hold his head up, look at Li Shimin, and then sneer, explain the principles of Confucius and Mencius, or follow Bi Gan, and be strong and firm.

But... at the same time this thought was born, his body made another reaction. He knelt down and crawled on the ground...

And this moment of kneeling.

The ministers were extremely quiet and watched all this silently.

Li Shimin lowered his head and looked at Lu Deming on the ground, and his face was filled with coldness.

Lu Deming's eyes turned red. At this time... he found that no matter what he said, he would be insulted. His Majesty's words just now had a very obvious murderous intent.

So Lu Deming took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said, "I... I'm dying!"

Obviously, face is not very important in the face of life and death!

The word "Wan Death" was as powerful as he said. At this time, Lu Deming was as vivid as a dog with a broken spine.

Li Shimin scandalized the ministers, and his eyes dodged.

Li Shimin said: "If you dare to do this, you will never let it go."

What he said was not serious, but it made everyone remember it deeply.

Li Shimin immediately said to Chen Zhengtai: "I heard that Zhang Liang's accomplices have won a lot?"

Chen Zhengtai said: "This person has five hundred adopted sons. In addition, there are many confidants and confidants. More than a thousand people participated in this matter."

Li Shimin said: "Piege those traitors and traitors."

Chen Zhengtai thought to himself, it was not my arrest, where would I go to bet?

But Zhang Qian, who was standing beside him, seemed to be ready, and he winked at a eunuch.

The eunuch hurried away, and soon after... he saw the guards coming with a team of people, a size of hundreds, each tied up with ropes like strings of grasshoppers, all of whom were depressed and looked as if dead.

Zhang Qian has brought a seat to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin sat down and said, "I have always heard that the sharpest thing about the Tiance Army is the firearms. I just haven't seen how the firearms of the new army are practiced with my own eyes. Maybe... Let's give it a try for me today."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Zhengtai immediately understood something.

It turns out that Your Majesty and Zhang Qian had already agreed on it?

Chen Zhengtai said, "Your Majesty, in fact...new...no, the Tiance Army is best at artillery. If this gun goes down..."

Li Shimin looked at Chen Zhengtai with a smile: "Okay, I want to see it with my own eyes."

"This..." Chen Zhengtai felt that he was quarreling again.

Your uncle, this cannon cannot be used in the palace. Your Majesty's Tai Chi Palace is still a bit narrow. You can't blow up your Tai Chi Palace and make a new one for you. No matter how rich he has, he can't ruin it like this!

So Chen Zhengtai smiled dryly and said, "The cannon is very powerful and cannot be used easily."

For some reason, the ministers asked someone to take the death row prisoners to come, and they whispered for a while, but they were always afraid in their hearts and always felt a bad premonition.

However, Chen Zhengtai had already trotted to Su Dingfang and others, and whispered in a low voice. Su Dingfang immediately understood.

So with a command, the Tiance Army, who was standing straight and motionless, suddenly began to change its formation.

Hundreds of death row prisoners, crying/howling or begging for mercy.

The infantry battalion was out of the line and they began to charge their firearms. The death row prisoners were dozens of steps away and did not know what the fate was to meet them. It seemed that with luck, someone found that he had entered the palace, and there were people wearing crown clothes in the distance, so he knew that the emperor had arrived in person.

They seemed to have caught the last life-saving straw, and some people said one after another: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we are deceived by Zhang Liang, please forgive me."

Li Shimin only sat upright with his lips pursed, with no expression on his face, his eyes closed, and he looked calm and composed.

It seems that because the emperor has been a long time, more and more people have forgotten what Li Shimin started with.

At this time, Su Dingfang shouted: "Prepare..."

So the soldiers of the Tiance Army Infantry Battalion, who had become a snake, began to quickly load gunpowder, and then inserted iron bars. After filling the gunpowder, they loaded them with projectiles.

Immediately, a musket was raised.

There are three thousand infantry battalions, divided into six columns.

Five hundred people lined up in a row, and the dark muzzles of the five hundred muskets were aimed at a distance.

"emission!"

Bang bang bang bang...

The gunshots were loud.

The bound dead prisoners heard the gunshots. Before they could react, many people's bodies were bleeding, and the projectiles quickly penetrated the human body. Some people staggered and then fell down.

Those who did not fall were like frightened birds. They tried desperately to run, but unfortunately, they were all strung together by ropes, and everyone squeezed into a ball without distinction. Instead, they were pulled and moved by the people around them.

So, someone began to scream and howl.

But when the first row shoots, they immediately retreat in a uniform manner. The second row quickly fills the gap in the first row, raises the gun, bang bang bang bang...

The interval between shooting is just a moment.

Then there are the third column, the fourth column, the fifth column and the sixth column.

The gunshots were loud.

Fewer death row prisoners are standing not far away.

But after these continuous shootings, the first row had been loaded. They stepped forward and continued to launch like a storm.

Round after round of volleys, endless.

And the gunshot, accompanied by the breath of gunpowder, has made the ministers change their fear.

They heard this thunderous sound in fear and anxiety. They saw that there was already smoke from the sky above Tiance Army, and they had already smelled the pungent smell of smoke.

What's even more terrifying are the death row prisoners. Hundreds of people have fallen to the ground in a row, blood flowing, and some people's bodies are still twitching, and the screams are getting weaker and weaker.

Lu Deming, who was kneeling on the ground... his body also tensed with the sound of gunshots. He subconsciously hugged his head and shivered all over.

Many people can’t help feeling that their feet are a little soft when faced with such a scene.

Even Zhang Qian felt that his heart and soul beating wildly with the intensive shooting, and he kept his body tense and did not dare to let out.

Only Li Shimin, who had been calmly looking down at all this, had no expression on his face.

Until everything came to peace, Su Dingfang stepped forward and politely said, "Your Majesty, all five hundred and thirty-six death row prisoners will be executed."

Li Shimin raised his hand, but said, "Only 536 people?"

These words... give people a biting chill.

Zhang Qian hurriedly said, "There are some of the sinners' families who have all been charged into the Jiaofangsi."

"Oh." Li Shimin said lightly: "But I don't think it's enough."

As he said that, his eyes turned, and his eyes fell on the already panicked ministers, and he said coldly: "Is there no Zhang Liang's gangsters in this court?"

These words immediately made many people's faces pale a little.

“…”

The person who was scandalized by Li Shimin's eyes only felt that his back was chilly.

What is this...

Look at what Your Majesty said...

Zhang Qianze said: "Why... I will verify it again? I think there will definitely be fish that misses the net."

Li Shimin said lightly: "We must investigate thoroughly! Don't let anyone go. Let one go today, and the next day... this is a big problem."
To be continued...
