Chapter 581: Victory in the First Battle

Zhou Xingkai then reacted, his target was not himself, he pushed aside the soldiers in front of him, only to see Gu Yan's arrow shot at the stake holding the chain of the drawbridge. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Only then did Zhou Xingkai understand his intentions, it turned out that he was heading for the suspension bridge!

Gu Yan's arrow was tightly nailed to the stake, Gu Yan shot an arrow, followed by several arrows, and the arrows were all nailed into the stake.

The stake burned in an instant, and the soldiers who were closer were just about to get closer, when they were pierced through their throats by the feather arrows that came from the fire, and before the others reacted, arrow feathers were also shot from under the city wall, due to the unfavorable terrain, the strength of the arrows was very small, but it had already prevented others from stepping forward to put out the fire.

The soldiers outside the moat set up the catapult and threw it at the stake. The stones that came one after another had already crumbled the burning stakes.

It didn't take long for a commotion to be heard, and the iron cable of the suspension bridge was unrestrained and slid away, and the suspension bridge fell immediately.

As the drawbridge slid down, soldiers with shields quickly approached the city wall.

The siege is real, even if it is to confuse the public, it must be hidden from King Ning's eyes.

With minimal casualties, they approached the city wall steadily and quickly.

Gu Yan looked at the battle below, his expression was solemn, and the soldiers fell one by one, approaching the soldiers behind him and continuing to move forward.

War has always been like this.

Gu Yan looked at Zhou Xingkai, who was also standing on the wall of Jiangcheng, his eyes were cold. One day, your blood will be used to commemorate the war you have provoked, and to repay these dead soldiers and people.

The siege on the first day was naturally unsuccessful, and the casualties were also expected by Gu Yan. After the number of casualties was counted, the wounded were carried to the rear for medical treatment.

After that siege, there was a pause for a few days, and the soldiers of Jiangcheng thought that the siege of the city that day had frustrated their spirits, and they were full of arrogance and disagreed.

Facing Gu Yan's army pressing the city, Zhou Xingkai did not send troops, and Gu Yan's side did not attack the city again, but the two armies confronted each other and tightly besieged the city.

Zhou Xingkai also had the arrogance of his soldiers at the beginning, thinking that the terrain of this Jiangcheng was really not ordinary, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

However, it was many days before he faintly felt that something was wrong.

Gu Yan is not such a person who does not move, especially since this battle of Jiangcheng is the first battle, which is especially important for both sides, Gu Yan's reaction makes him suspicious.

But suspicion is suspicion, but he can't figure out what Gu Yan wants to do, Gu Yan governs the army strictly, and it is difficult to install spies in the army.

He thought about whether Gu Yan would poison the water in the moat, because the water used by the soldiers and civilians in the city came from the moat.

Then he thought that Gu Yan was not implicated in the past battles, even if he really wanted to recover Jiangcheng, he would definitely take care of the people of Jiangcheng.

If you want to do such a thing, he won't do it.

But what exactly is he going to do?

Soon, Zhou Xingkai knew what Gu Yan was going to do.

With the sound of a bang at the west gate of Jiangcheng, the entire Jiangcheng was shaken, and some men reported that the city wall was actually trapped underground, and the underground was empty, and it was blown up from the ground by fire and thunder.

In this way, the two city walls of Jiangcheng are like a heavenly screen, and the impenetrable city that is called the urn city is like a city wall, and with the collapse of the city wall, Gu Yan's army is like a state of nothingness.

With the beating of the war drums and the sound of the horns, the soldiers shook the earth with the earth-shaking "Rush!" The army of King Nanzhao Ning saw the power of Gu Yan leading the cavalry.

The first battle was a great victory and spread to the capital.

The civil and military eyebrows of the Manchu Dynasty stretched, and the sadness dissipated.

Jiangcheng can be captured, so why not be afraid of other places!

The reconquest of lost ground is just around the corner.

It seems that as long as it is related to Gu Yan, it can always make people feel at ease.

It turned out that King Ning's army was like a bamboo, and the people in the court were terrified.

Now in less than a month, he has taken down the most defensible and difficult Jiangcheng, and other cities are not as flat as they are in Gu Yan's eyes!

Bai Lian also received the news that Gu Yan broke the city faster and more stable than she imagined, and the casualties were smaller.

I believe it won't be long before we can regain lost ground.

At the end of October, Concubine Zhao Shu in the palace and another Feng Guiren were about to give birth, and at this time, Empress Zhao took Feng Guiren to the Ganlu Palace, saying that it was to take care of her to give birth, but in fact, she was planning to seize the imperial heir.

If it is a princess, maybe this Feng Guiren still has a life, if it is a prince, I am afraid that Feng Guiren will not even be able to get out of the door of the delivery room.

After Zhao Yishu knew about this, her heart woke up, and she immediately thought of Empress Zhao's intentions.

Zhao Yishu is not as influential as Empress Zhao, if she really has a prince by her side, all of whom are His Majesty's children, then how can the throne get her own son.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yishu was deeply frightened in her heart.

If she had known that Empress Zhao had beaten her like this, she should not have made her lose face some time ago.

But it's too late to say anything.

I just hope that Feng Gui will give birth to a princess and give birth to a prince by himself, and take advantage of His Majesty's happiness to directly crown the prince, so that he will not have to worry about it in the future.

Moreover, it is best to be able to stumble on that noble person now, it is best to have two lives in one corpse, and now that he is in the Ganlu Palace, it is also the responsibility of Queen Zhao if something happens.

Thinking of these, Zhao Yishu often went to the Ganlu Hall to sit for a while, so as to find opportunities.

Queen Zhao has always been cold to her, and Zhao Yishu doesn't care about it, so nobles are submissive, and they don't dare to speak out between their sisters.

When it was November, Feng Guiren started first, and he couldn't give birth to a child after a whole day and a night, and in the end Zhou Hongren was alarmed, originally her delivery period was still half a month, but she didn't expect to start it early, plus the fetal position was not good, and she couldn't give birth to a child after tossing for so long.

When the imperial physician asked Zhou Hongren whether he was a son or a mother, Zhou Hongren couldn't remember Feng Guiren's appearance, and almost didn't have any hesitation.

After all, Feng Guiren couldn't help the pain of childbirth, and after giving birth to a prince, he couldn't stop bleeding, and it didn't take long for people to die.

After all, it was a woman who fought with him and gave birth to his eldest son, Zhou Hongren felt ashamed, promoted to the position of concubine, and was buried in a beautiful manner.

Empress Zhao was unusually generous, saying that the eldest son of the emperor was extraordinary, and it was not good for the biological mother's position to be low, and she was promoted to the position of concubine, Zhou Hongren praised Empress Zhao for her virtuous generosity, and when Empress Zhao proposed to record the eldest prince to her name, Zhou Hongren did not hesitate.

Recorded in the name of Empress Zhao, it is not only the eldest prince, it is the eldest son!

Even if Zhao Yishu gives birth to a golden treasure in the future, she can't shake herself.

The day after Feng Guiren gave birth, I don't know if Zhao Yishu was angry by the queen's behavior as a concubine, or for other reasons, she was about to give birth.

Zhao Yishu is a suitable child, and during pregnancy, she is in accordance with the instructions of the imperial doctor, she has taken proper supplements, her health is also good, and her childbirth is very smooth.
