Chapter 524: Attacking the Cool Capital
In a desperate situation, King Liang began to become suspicious, and in his eyes, those civil officials seemed to have written letters to King Qin.
"Lord Zhang, this king heard that you didn't go back to the house yesterday, did you?"
"Minister...... The minister went out to do some personal things. An official knelt down and said in a trembling voice.
"Really? It can't be that he is working with Qin Jun and making secret contacts, right? "King Liang's eyes are gloomy.
"This, how is this possible! Weichen is loyal, the sun and the moon can be seen, the king is clear......" The officials were so frightened that their voices changed.
"You think! Don't you know what you've done? β
"Someone!"
"The king spares his life, the king spares his life......" Another minister was dragged out.
King Liang's current mentality, before the death of the country, was almost crazy, and his violence was undoubtedly revealed.
"Master Lee."
Yes!? An official's body suddenly tightened: "Minister, minister is here." β
"This king heard that there was a stranger in your house yesterday?"
"That'...... That's a distant cousin of Wechen. The official hurriedly explained.
"Really?" The corners of King Liang's mouth twitched, and he sneered.
"The Great King! The Great Kingβ"
The cries disappeared from the temple.
Because of the secret letter, the Liang Palace was noisy, and the character of the Liang King was already violent and ruthless, and when the ministers saw this, they all knelt down tightly, their heads touched the ground, their buttocks were high, and there were many people, and their bodies were even trembling slightly, for fear of calling their names.
After the next court, the ministers retreated, and almost all of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Some people even wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads with the sleeves of their official uniforms from time to time, and couldn't help but say: "This is terrible, it's still early for Lord Deng Xin and Deng to see the opportunity......
In this case, after the ministers of Liang Guo went back, they closed their doors one after another, summoned the servants in the house, and increased the number of guards, and they were not on guard, but worried that the Liang internal guards would suddenly come to the door.
By the next day, the entire hall was empty.
Except for the old prime minister of Liangguo, there is no one in the usual hundred officials.
King Liang sat on the king's chair, first looking around blankly, and then suddenly laughed at himself.
"Until now, in my entire Liang country, there is only one loyal minister left, Lao Aiqing......"
"The king......" Liang Xiang didn't know what to say.
"Old Aiqing, ......," King Liang cried out sadly.
"The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and it is said that he is a loyal and good person, but in fact, he is a group of dead wood and grass!"
"Hehe, haha-"
He chuckled at first, then laughed on his back, laughing hysterically.
While laughing, he also stood up and walked away lonely.
Looking at his back, the old prime minister of Liangguo sighed heavily, and then shook his head.
At the same time, the east gate of Liangzhou.
50,000 Qin troops have arrived at the city.
Because of the rapid march all the way, Xiao Yuan's side did not carry baggage, there were no large-scale siege equipment, cloud ladders, and they were still made by temporary logging, but the capture of Liangdu was bound by the Qin army.
At present, King Liang has concentrated his main defensive forces at the north gate, and the forbidden army here is only a thousand people.
How can a thousand people be able to block an army of 50,000, and the length of the capital's city defense is not comparable to that of a small city, and under the long defense line, the lack of troops is particularly fatal.
As long as there are casualties in one city defense and the follow-up cannot keep up, the soldiers of the Qin army will jump to the head of the city along this gap, and then the whole line will collapse.
Before the battle, looking at the overwhelming army on the plain outside the city, many forbidden troops in the city subconsciously tightened the halberd in their hands, and their palms were full of sweat.
A general couldn't help but slide his Adam's apple, and swallowed his saliva fiercely: "Cai ...... Lord Cai, this ......"
Cai Yan was at the head of the city, and when he saw the appearance of the general, he couldn't help frowning: "What?" General Fang is scared? β
"Hehe, of course...... Of course not......" The general laughed dryly.
He said so, but his tone and expression had already betrayed himself.
Cai Yang took a deep breath and said, "General Fang! As a general in the army, you should defend the country to the death! Even if it is a horse leather shroud, it is the glory of your generation! It will be praised to the world! But if you are cowardly, you will only leave infamy! β
As soon as he finished saying this, General Fang couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly responded: "Yes!" β
Cai Yan was cheering for the thousand forbidden troops, and outside the city, the camp of the Qin army also changed.
Xiao Yuan was dressed in black brocade, tied with a brocade belt around his waist, and his hair tied with a hosta, riding a war horse, and came to the place of arrows under the city.
He grabbed the reins, looked at Cai Yan at the head of the city, and said loudly:
"Lord Cai! In today's cool country situation, there is only one way to die! Why do you have to act against the sky! β
"Dare to ask King Qin, what is against the sky!" Cai Yan replied loudly.
"This king ordered the king to lead the army to the north, it is to inherit the emperor's order, obey the will of heaven, and use thousands of people under his feet, intending to use the mantis arm as a car, isn't it against the sky!"
"Hahahaha-"
As a result, Cai Yan smiled on his back, and then said sharply: "Xiao thief! The greatest traitor and thief! Holding the Son of Heaven in his hands, he is still so high-sounding, it is ridiculous! β
He scolded so angrily, Xiao Yuan heard this, not only did he not get angry, but laughed.
This generation of traitors! Seeing this situation, Cai Yan was immediately angry.
"Lord Cai scolded well." Xiao Yuan said: "This king doesn't dare to say what kind of hero he is, but he is also a person who loves talents, as long as Lord Cai is willing to open the city and surrender, this king promises that he will not lose his high-ranking officials!" β
"Xiao Thief Hugh wants to insult me!" Cai Yan was furious, and pointed to the city again and shouted:
"This official hereby swears! Even if you die today! Even if you fight to the death of a soldier, you will never stoop to serve a thief! β
At this point in the dialogue, there is nothing more to say, I didn't expect that he, a literati, would have such determination.
Xiao Yuan took a deep breath, squinted at Cai Yan at the head of the city, and then pulled the reins and returned to the main formation.
As soon as he came back, all the generals hurriedly said: "King! β
Xiao Yuan glanced at everyone, no longer had any nonsense, and said directly: "Xu Rong led the troops to attack the city defense on the left, Wei Qing attacked the right side, and Xu Hu attacked the middle!" β
"No!" The three of them clasped their fists together.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan pulled the reins slightly, located on the war horse, facing all the soldiers, and drew out the war sword:
"Soldiers! This is the last battle to extinguish the cold! β
"For the rise of my Qin State!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Killβ"
Before the battle, the morale was greatly boosted, and all the soldiers began to wave the weapons in their hands and shouted in unison.
"Go to warβ"
Xiao Yuan turned his horse's head again, pointed towards the city gate, and pointed forward with his sword.
With his order, the 50,000 Qin army began to launch a full charge.
On the great plain outside the city gate, there is dust, black armor and red tassels, and there is no end in sight.
Amid countless shouts and cheers, the crowd swarmed in, and arrows from both sides began to shoot back and forth in the sky.
The ladders were also quickly erected all over the city.
