Chapter 228: There is still a chance

But Yan Guo has learned from the past of Northern Qi, and his behavior is relatively more cautious. The so-called Black Dragon Village, the so-called defensive strategy, I am afraid that these Yan countries have already prepared - that is to say, the tricks used cannot be used again, and she must find another way.

In particular, Yan Guo has been stationed outside the city for a long time, but he has not made any moves, it should be that he wants to trap everyone here together, and over time, there is a shortage of food and grass in the city, but they are all trapped and died here.

The resources of the Li State are not much, and the troops are not enough, if it is directly attacked, it is nothing more than hitting a stone with an egg, but if it retreats to the city, it will be consumed to death.

So what to do?

So far, Li Qianxun can't think of a better way.

However, she must fight!

"Since everyone wants to help, it's better for everyone to find a way to take out the quilt at home." Li Qianxun stroked his forehead: "If you can, pile up all the quilts at the gate of the city, and I will do my best when the time comes." ”

"Good!"

Li Qianxun's words are undoubtedly a kind of hope.

Everyone dispersed, and she began to prepare her next steps.

"Your Majesty, are you cold?"

Keeping these quilts may be of great use.

"I'm not cold." Li Qianxun said dryly: "At the moment, I can only hope that God will help." ”

is so resigned to fate, it really doesn't look like Li Qianxun's style. She only believed in herself, but this time, there was indeed too much luck in it.

Within the territory of the State of Qin.

Ying Jingchu finally got rid of the people behind him.

"Master, it's safe now."

Ying Jingchu nodded, and then spoke: "What is the situation on Li Guo's side?" The empress should be fine, right? ”

He still cared about her in the end, and as soon as he heard the news, he immediately wanted to help her. But where would she need her help? According to her ability, the affairs of Northern Qi should not have a particularly big impact, and he still believes in her--he is afraid that Emperor Chu will do something in it.

Sure enough, Amer told Ying Jingchu all the news he had heard during this time.

"Master, the empress must not need you to worry about it, during this time, her affairs are flying all over the sky, and even the Qin State has been spread, and now I don't know the empress of the Li State, and ...... Everyone also admired her very much. ”

In such troubled times, the art of war is almost everything.

Ying Jingchu nodded: "What about Nan Chu?" ”

"Nan Chu...... Master, Amer didn't know much, but he heard that he had taken the position of prime minister of Yan State before, and he often kept in touch with Yan Heng as the prime minister of Yan State. ”

"I see, let's go."

"Master, where are we going next?"

"Li Guo."

And he hastened, and brought men over.

He didn't seem to be used to seeing her in danger, and always wanted to help her.

I just don't know, it's not too late.

The fierce battle with Yan lasted for nearly half a month. She is nothing more than defending the city gate, and Yan Guo only needs to do her best to keep attacking. In fact, by now, Li Qianxun and Li Guo are about to be unable to hold on.

She stood on the ramparts, looking at the moonlit night sky - tomorrow was the last battle.

Shen Haofeng was not around, and Jin Ling was not there, they were all forced to rest by Li Qianxun, after all, tomorrow's battle is very crucial. It was Gonggong Su who walked behind Li Qianxun and put a cloak on her.

"Your Majesty, as long as you do your best, no one will blame you."

Li Qianxun shook his head: "But I'...... I'll blame myself. ”

She can probably feel the responsibility of being the empress, she represents the entire Li country, and the Li country is something that she is not willing to give up no matter what. She didn't know how long she could last, it turned out that she should be relieved that there were so many people around her, but now she felt that it was better to be absent from them, so that at least she didn't have to drag it down.

"Grandpa Su, go to sleep, tomorrow you will be responsible for protecting the people in the palace. If the city is broken, you can leave with everyone at any time. Li Qianxun's hand raised slightly, but he didn't raise his head from beginning to end.

Day 2.

The drums of war are beating.

Today's war drum was beaten by Li Qianxun herself, she seemed to have stood on the city wall all night, still wearing the cloak, and the whole person was still a little tired. Those war drums seemed to have a kind of magic spell, and she kept beating them, but her spirit became more and more vibrant.

She gathered all the remaining forces together, and everyone set out in full gear, all for the purpose of defending the city.

However, the army of Yan prepared other weapons - siege vehicles.

The reason why the Yan Kingdom is so powerful is mostly because of the advanced attack weapons. Li Qianxun was more advanced than them, but he didn't have time to rush to make it - and Li Guo couldn't stand the toss now.

The main feature of the Yan Kingdom is the siege vehicles, their carts are on the front line, and there are various "models", such as catapults that are not too big to lose, and ordinary carts. A dozen people in the front row attacked with siege vehicles first, and those in the back waited for the general's order.

There were less than 5,000 infantry left, and they all had their own shields, so Li Qianxun ordered these infantry to block them for a while.

However, Yan Guo's strength - in fact, she herself doesn't know how many have come in total. According to her observations in the past half a month, it seems that the people of Yan Kingdom are not only what she has seen, but there must be some stationed in other places.

The catapult goes into battle, first attacking with stones, and then smashing the gates with the cart.

Li Qianxun suddenly felt that this city could not be defended.

No way! She can't take the rest of the people with her to die.

She added a bolt to the city gate, and one person stayed behind to defend the city gate, and ordered everyone to retreat, and all of them retreated to the Qin River.

In any case, you have to save your life first. However, the adjutant general beside Shen Haofeng suddenly ran to report: "Report - there are 30,000 Yan troops waiting in the Qin River, Your Majesty, we have no way to escape." ”

There was an inexplicable desperation in his words.

Li Qianxun's hand loosened slightly, and at this moment, the city gate had been knocked open a gap. The people on the city wall are still attacking, but after all, the supplies of the Li State are not enough, they are trapped in the city, there is no way to replenish, and there is no way to escape.

It's really ruthless!

They sealed all the roads.

Li Qianxun felt a trace of sadness in his heart, it seemed that the war could only end here.

No, maybe she still has a chance.

"You help me guard it here first." When she had finished giving her orders, she went up to the tower. She also has one last way, to capture the thief and capture the king first.

Li Qianxun took a crossbow machine, put a bow on it, and then aimed at the general of Yan Guo opposite. It was too far away to know if she could make it, so she pulled a rope and prepared to climb down the wall.
