Chapter 455: Your Highness Thinks Twice
Many veterans also took the opportunity to show their old qualifications and rich experience, and their brains were even more open in the midst of their high-minded discussions.
Anyway, ordinary soldiers won't participate in the underground battle, so you can say anything!
"Knock, knock, knock......"
Suddenly, the drums sounded high, and a thousand drums rang out in unison, disturbing the Qingming and warm world.
The anti-army barracks in the suburbs, which had not been moving, also began to boil a little.
Many siege equipment was pushed out of the barracks, ranging from tens of meters in size to hundreds of meters in size, as large as a hill, and thousands of meters in size.
Many rebels poured out of the barracks like a colony of ants, and various groups such as horse teams, infantry, alien beasts, bee swarms, and insect swarms made people dizzy to watch, and they were all pitch black anyway.
"When, when, when......"
When the war drums sounded in unison, the police gong on the east wall of Xianyang sounded high.
On the occasion of the tense confrontation between the two sides, it is natural to announce that the enemy army in the suburbs is about to attack the city!
The merchant army of the east city wall, the merchant army of the west, south and north of the city wall who were bored, and many reserve troops and many merchant troops patrolling in the city were all disturbed, and all kinds of shouts, shouts, scolding, and roaring were all disturbed.
The barracks urgently summoned soldiers, and the regiments continued to open the barracks......
The people in Xianyang City also began to become a little disordered.
The originally bustling and noisy street quickly quieted down after a burst of boiling, and most of them returned to their residences.
In general, wars do not affect civilians.
However, the enemy army in the suburbs is portrayed as inhumane thieves, and the brute who eats meat and does not spit out bones is certainly terrifying!
The vast and vast Xianyang City shook the whole city, and even the palace city in the northwest corner was scorched!
The main thing is that it has been closed to traffic, Luoshui, which crosses the eastern capital of Xianyang, is forbidden to ships, and any ships will be strictly inspected!
Immediately following dozens of large and small urban districts in Luoyi City, the gates of each urban district are closed and forbidden to be opened.
The main purpose is to prevent the enemy army and spies from taking the opportunity to cause chaos and disturb the eastern capital.
Xianyang Miyagi ......
Wu Guogong asked for help, and decided to send Li Gonggong and other nine Lotus Shadow Guards to help, and Emperor Cheng, who was looking forward to the situation feedback, Xiang Yufei, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Qi Lin, the son of the country, gathered together, and they were also disturbed by the situation at this time.
"What's the situation?"
"Didn't you say that the enemy army would not attack the city in the next few days?"
As soon as the enemy army attacked the city, he couldn't help but look at Xiang Yufei in surprise and asked.
Xiang Yufei personally said that the enemy forces on all sides have not yet been encircled, and they have not even done a good job in various situations.
The most important siege equipment, whether it is made or not is still two years old......
Without top-level siege equipment, it is naturally impossible to capture the eastern capital of Xianyang, and no one can defend and climb the city wall, which is a well-known cognition!
What is the current situation?
Is it civil strife again?
Xiang Yufei's face was embarrassed, and he responded stiffly: "Theoretically, ......"
"The enemy won't be attacking the city in the next few days!"
"That will only increase the casualties!"
Qi Lin sneered and reminded: "Theoretically, ......"
"It's a matter now, not just sitting and talking!"
"If Lord Shangshu could expect anything, there would be no war in the human world!"
"Huh?"
Xiang Yufei's face sank, and he looked at Qi Lin angrily.
As the two close ministers of the suburbs of King Cheng, the two have a long history of grievances, and they don't like each other.
Unexpectedly, at this critical time, Qi Lin, the son of the country, would dare to demolish his platform......
What a villain!
However, Xiang Yufei couldn't refute it, and he had to admit that what Qi Lin said was the truth.
If everything had been expected by him, there would have been no war in the world for a long time, and he would not be the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs!
Di Jiao ignored the thoughts of the two, and continued to ask anxiously, "Father-in-law, hasn't there been any news yet?"
"Where's Wu Guogong?"
"I wonder what the situation is at this time?"
"Your Highness!"
"Wu Guogong is unharmed, and he is leading the crowd to hunt down and kill the Flying Tiger and the ......"
"Barbarian Leader!"
"Now that it has been completely wiped out, there are only a dozen or so people left at large......"
"If you can kill the Flying Tiger Anti-Thief, the overall situation will be decided!"
Xiang Yufei comforted with confidence, which made the emperor breathe a sigh of relief and look forward to it, but he looked at Xiang Yufei with some displeasure, obviously knowing the "bad habit" of the courtiers to report good news and not bad news!
Xiang Yufei has served the emperor for a long time, so he naturally knows more about the thoughts in the emperor's heart, and after hesitating, he responded with a hard head: "In addition, Gonggong Kang was unfortunately killed!"
"What?"
Xiao Dijiao stood up with his eyes wide and his face full of disbelief.
In the heart of the emperor's suburbs, the Lotus Shadow Guard is almost a symbol of invincibility.
He had never heard of the death of the Lotus Shadow Guard since he could remember, and even the great assassination that shook the East a few days ago shocked the world, and no one dared to assassinate him, naturally because of the Lotus Shadow Guard.
Now, Gonggong Kang has died in battle, how fierce is the battle?!
Xiang Yufei stiffened his head and comforted: "This ......"
"Maybe there was some accident!"
"After all, it is a fierce battle with powerful beings such as anti-thief flying tigers and barbarian leaders, and there will inevitably be casualties!"
"No wonder the rebels are rushing to attack the city!"
"I see......"
"It is estimated that Wu Guogong, the Purgatory Master, General Wu Qingfeng and others were pinned down underground, and they had no choice but to command the battle!"
Xiao Dijiao quickly reacted, and muttered calmly and wisely.
Regarding Wu Guogong and Xiang Yufei, Di Jiao is still very convinced, not only in terms of loyalty, but also in terms of ability!
"Your Highness is wise, that's exactly the case!"
Xiang Yufei said with admiration on his face.
With the age of the emperor's suburbs, it is indeed extremely rare to be able to react so quickly, and it is quite precocious to think of this.
At a young age, he was often sent by the Emperor Emperor Xin as the representative of the town guard, which is naturally extraordinary!
"No way!"
"Let's go to the city wall and see ......"
The emperor was not secretly happy with Xiang Yufei's praise, and said with a sad face.
"Huh?"
Xiang Yufei, Qi Lin and the others were frightened, and Qi Lin hurriedly advised: "Your Highness think twice, now that your father-in-law and other great evolutionaries have entered the underground ruins, the enemy army will take the opportunity to attack and kill, Your Highness must not shake the army's heart in danger!"
Di Jiao's small eyebrows frowned and wanted to make a strong decision, but he was also a little afraid and agreed with Qi Lin's words.
Xiang Yufei said in words: "Your Highness's daughter's body is related to the Eastern Capital, and you can't take risks!"
"Why don't you let the old minister go to check the battle situation on behalf of His Highness, and spread the meaning of His Highness?"
Di Jiao nodded, urging and said, "It's okay!"
"Then Shangshu will go immediately, and report immediately if there is any situation!"
......
On the hundreds of zhang high city walls, which were like cutting off the heavens and the earth, the merchant army constantly poured up the city walls to carry rolling logs, stones, arrows and other objects to prepare for defense.
The outskirts were clouded like layers, and the boundless rebels rushed to the city walls at full speed.
Looking down from a high vantage point, the enemy's speed is as slow as a snail, and the scale of covering more than 100 miles with only iron and blood is quite amazing!
More than half an hour later, the rebels arrived a few miles outside the eastern city wall.
Such a rapid build-up and marching speed shows that the rebels have long been prepared and well-trained.
The merchant army on the city wall watched the rebels approaching like a tide, no one attacked, not even a sharp arrow was fired, and powerful weapons such as catapults and ballistae did not take the opportunity to exert their might.
