Hidden in the court

Chapter 193 The World is for All

Chapter 193 The world belongs to all

I am Wang Ze, a descendant of the Taiyuan Wang family. Although I am a descendant of the Taiyuan Wang family, I am still proud of my identity. Until that day... I don't know why the court wanted to massacre my family. They didn't say anything that day, and my parents died because of it. Maybe because I was young, I was released. But in the following years, I don't know if I had a full day. I didn't think about revenge because I found that almost all my playmates had the same experience as me. The notice issued by the court said that it was the Wang family who intended to rebel. I don't understand who meant this. My parents definitely didn't have the intention to rebel because they always taught me to be loyal to the emperor and love the country...

Until a few days ago, someone found us and asked us to "go home". I really couldn't stand this kind of life of hunger and starvation. I thought I would continue to live under the protection of the family, but when I came back, the elders said they wanted to rebel... I don't understand, was it because not enough people died last time, or was it because the lesson was not harsh enough? I haven't lived in vain these years. I figured it out. My parents did nothing wrong. It was those people in the family who pushed all the people into the fire pit because of their own selfishness. Moreover, because I am a side branch without a father or a mother, I was arranged to be on the top of the city.

If I survive, I will definitely go and collect the debt from those old guys. Unfortunately, I am afraid I will die. The stone bullets fired by the catapult are already flying towards the top of the city...

"Boom-"

There was a dull sound, which was the sound of stone bullets colliding with the bluestone city wall.

Wang Ze leaned against the battlement, slumped on the ground, opened his eyes in horror, and touched the intact armor on his body. He looked up again, and a stone bullet fell in front of him. The two unlucky guys who were standing just now were hit, spitting blood, and their chests sank a lot. Their eyes were still open. It seemed that they were not dead yet, but they were only exhaling but not inhaling. With every breath he exhaled, scarlet blood flowed out of his mouth.

At this moment, such scenes were being played out countless times on the city walls of Taiyuan.

These people didn't react quickly, but fortunately they valued their lives enough. Many of them immediately lay down on the ground and leaned against the wall, so the damage caused by the stone bullets was extremely limited.

Gradually, people began to organize themselves on the city walls.

"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot..."

However, when he saw the city, he could no longer shout. Attacking from the top of the city had a natural range advantage, so a few rounds of arrows would be enough. But now, when he looked down, the troops on the other side were far away, and they only used catapults to fire a few times, with no intention of attacking the city at all.

"You, go and inform the city!"

The guard looked into the distance, thought, then looked at Wang Ze who was a little frightened and made arrangements.

He also had some selfish motives. Even though he didn't know Wang Ze, this battle was too cruel for a boy of fourteen or fifteen. But he was also powerless. He was just a side branch. Thinking of this, he looked up blankly, looking at the enemy in the distance, and looking around. Even these boys had climbed up to the top of the city, but there was no sign of a main branch.

Wang Ze didn't know all this yet, and he took the order and ran towards the city. He thought that even if there was no reinforcement, he would ask the elders to make a decision. After all, they had already rebelled, and they would fight for their lives even if they couldn't survive.

At this moment, in Taiyuan Prefecture, the direct descendants of the Wang family and the elders were still feasting. It was not that they did not hear the movement on the other side of the city wall, but it stopped, didn't it? Besides, they were just happy, if for no other reason, they just received news that the King of Jin personally led a 100,000-man army to "enter the capital to defend the king", and the "mountain bandits and thieves" from all over Liangwu also rebelled. As long as they can hold out for a few more days in Taiyuan, it will be easy to hold out for a few more days. When the King of Jin's army arrives in the capital, everything will be fine.

As for the side clans defending the city, how can there be no casualties in a war? As long as they are not all dead, the city cannot be broken. On the contrary, now, the most important thing is to accumulate strength to prevent being abandoned by the King of Jin after the success. Besides, we haven't even seen each other for these years, so what's wrong with getting together now?

Wang Ze ran all the way to the gate of the mansion but was stopped.

"stop!"

"Go and report it quickly. There's a fight going on at the city wall! Please ask a few uncles to take charge of the situation."

Wang Ze and others were extremely anxious, but they smelled something unusual in the wind, and their hearts sank instantly.

While people were dawdling inside the city, the people on the wall were confused.

Two sharp arrows flew in from the sky and hit the battlements, and the arrow shafts trembled and made sounds.

At first they thought it was an enemy's crossbow, but when they looked again, they found that it was much smaller than a crossbow arrow.

"How can a person shoot so far?"

"Look, they're retreating!"

Someone shouted, and when everyone looked over, they saw that the enemy had really turned around. Then, the sound of the catapult's wheels rolling over the ground was heard again.

All of a sudden, everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Don't let your guard down. Stay alert. Split into two shifts and take turns to stand guard. Just lean against the wall and rest!"

……

"Take the men to rest. We will work in four shifts. We will go once every hour tonight. If he doesn't tire himself to death, he will be scared to death!

"Weren't we supposed to work in three shifts? Where did the fourth shift come from?"

Hu Die asked with some confusion, and then she saw Zhao Yao who was also wearing armor, and she felt strange again.

What is this? The enemy commander is leading our men to charge?

"Okay, stop thinking too much and have a good sleep. In less than three days, I want them to open the door and surrender."

The guards on the city wall felt that they had not slept for long when the vibration under their feet came again.

"Damn it, it's coming again! Quick, get down!"

"Boom boom boom——"

Stone bullets poured towards the top of the city wall, but with the experience just now, the people on the city wall could deal with it better, and the lethality of the catapults was more limited.

Gradually, the sound subsided.

"Are you done fighting? Retreat and go back to sleep!"

If we were to say who is the most sensitive to time right now, it would be Wang Ze.

He waited outside the mansion gate for a full half hour and heard the noise outside the city.

Finally, he entered the mansion, but as soon as he entered, he found something wrong. The air was filled with the aroma of wine and food. Looking at the "elders" here, their faces were flushed, and they looked at him with extremely dissatisfied eyes. Some even burped directly.

Wang Ze had no idea what was going on. Somehow, looking at this group of drunk old guys, he suddenly had the urge to rush up and kill them all.

Of course he still didn't take any action, but instead sighed heavily.

Of course, his report only resulted in one order: "Hold your ground and don't move out!"

Wang Ze retreated, as if he had no strength left to run. He turned his head to look at Taiyuan Prefecture, lowered his head and continued to move towards the top of the city.

"Collateral line, direct line? Haha... The world belongs to the public. Only the imperial court is the legitimate rule of the world! Only the people are the masters of the world!"
