Chapter 228: Ready
"This Zhao Ximei actually gave me such a hand." Liang Jia didn't embarrass Hu Sanniang, turned around and walked back to the big tent.
However, it was the turn of Xiao Gu in the big tent.
"Your Majesty, Lord Zhao is also for the emperor's safety, if you don't go, you won't go, why don't you just throw a stone, what's there to see?" Xiao Gu said with a wry smile.
"Then why are I here? Do you want to go sightseeing? Sanniang has a military order, it's really hard to force it, you don't have it, you take me out. ”
Xiao Gu really couldn't resist Liang Jia's request, so he reluctantly agreed.
After Zhao Ximei left with the people, Xiao Gu flew out directly from one side with Liang Jia, and then secretly went through the woods on the side of the road to Jianmen City.
More than a hundred miles of road is a long way to go, but with Xiao Gu to take it away, Liang Jia and they arrived half an hour earlier than Zhao Ximei's army.
The sun had already risen, and it was still a little cool in the morning. In the distance, the high mountains are directly inserted into the clouds, and between the two peaks, a gray city wall can be faintly seen, and many flags are held on the city wall, which is the Sword Gate City.
Originally, there was a post road in Jianmen City that led directly to the outside, but after it was occupied by Dong Qixiong, this post road was broken.
The post road was already steep, and it was usually by mules and horses to transport things, and even if there were carriages, many horses would have to be attached to pull some heavy loads. Originally, although this post road was difficult to walk, it was very prosperous, and there was an endless stream of business travelers. But now, he is bare, and he can't even see a single figure.
"If there are conditions, we must completely open up this road, and when we can pass the carriage freely, Sichuan will not become a dangerous place." Liang Jia said with emotion.
"But in the same way, the imperial court has lost a place where it can retreat in a roundabout way." Ossicles responded.
"No, you don't. If one day the imperial court needs to use the river to take refuge, it is better to give the country to others. ”
"The emperor can see it like this?" The ossicles are very strange.
"It's not like you can see it. The ebb and flow of the tide is a normal thing. Look at the current Great Liang Kingdom, although I am trying to save it. When I save it completely, but after a hundred and ten years, my handbag may not be able to keep this country, and sooner or later it will be replaced by someone else. Therefore, I can guarantee that I will not lose this country in my own hands. As for the descendants, I am dead, so I don't care if it floods. ”
Xiao Gu nodded and said with a smile: "When the time comes, Xiao Gu will take the emperor to my master and ask her to teach you to cultivate." ”
Liang Jia smiled, reached out and touched Xiao Gu's little face, and said, "I guess I don't have a chance." ”
The two did not continue to talk, but turned their faces to look east.
After a while, countless dense figures appeared in front of him, and the imperial army came.
The general of the pioneer battalion is none other than Xiaohua. Originally, Liang Jia was also more optimistic about Yue Fei, but since Yue Fei was transferred to the city defense battalion, Wen Xiansen paid special attention to it, and this time he was transferred to Zhao Ximei's big tent to be responsible for making suggestions.
Xiaohua saw Liang Jia, her big eyes widened, and then she grabbed the horse's belly and ran over quickly.
The thousands of cavalry behind her also increased their speed, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves was quite powerful. Fortunately, the speed of catching is fast, and it does not give people a particularly big pressure.
"Your Majesty, why did you get here?" Xiaohua dismounted, and did not see the courtesy, and shouted loudly.
"Come and see, you don't have to be nervous, what to do." Liang Jia waved his hand.
Xiaohua then remembered to salute on one knee, and then commanded his men to continue to move forward, rushing up the steep slope of the post road and setting up a formation. Subsequently, a large number of troops arrived, and almost all the miles around the post road were filled in Wuyang.
Zhao Ximei couldn't help but show a wry smile on her face when she saw that Liang Jia had come here.
The emperor's behavior was so unpredictable. He had done his duty as a minister, but Liang Jia didn't listen, and he had no choice, so he had to invite Liang Jia to his Chinese army and let a group of personal soldiers protect him.
Zhao Ximei had no time to take care of Liang Jia, so he began to get busy, constantly directing the various parts to place the trebuchets in the planned positions, and then sending soldiers to continue digging stones.
By the time everything was ready, the sun had already risen.
There was still no movement on the other side of Sword Gate City. After all, in their opinion, it is undoubtedly a bit of a fool's dream to want to take Jianmen City. Not to mention the 150,000 army, even another 150,000 will not be able to be captured once or twice. What's more, they have already reported the situation to the Yizhou side, and more reinforcements will arrive soon. At that time, as long as they don't take the initiative to give up, the imperial army will not want to pass through here.
Dong Qixiong also paid a heavy price when he took Jianmen City, if it weren't for the combat effectiveness of the defenders of Jianmen City was too scum, and they fought at the cost of their lives, Jianmen City might not be able to take it.
"Dashuai, everything is ready to go." Seo Young-hyuk came in from outside, and his head was covered with sweat.
"Vice Marshal Xu is hard." After Zhao Ximei finished speaking, she walked out with Xu Yinghyuk. Liang Jia also walked out, ready to watch the first stone battle.
Zhao Ximei and Xu Yinghe stood on a stone platform that was temporarily erected, and after listening to the reports of all the general soldiers, with Zhao Ximei's order, the small flag in the hands of the commander on the stone platform waved, only to hear the buzzing sound suddenly sounded, Liang Jia saw hundreds of stones flying into the sky, and then flew towards Jianmen City.
The first wave of stone throwers was obviously not on target, only part of it hit the Jianmen City, and most of it hit the slopes on both sides, and then rolled down with a grunt.
Zhao Ximei naturally discovered this and ordered the direction to be corrected. The interval between the second and first waves of attacks was a bit long, but the effect of the subsequent attacks was much better, and most of the stones were smashed into the Sword Gate Castle.
It's a pity that they can't see the situation inside Sword Gate City from the position they are in, and they don't know what the specific attack effect will be.
In Jianmen City, Zhao San sat lazily and boredly in a house under the city gate drinking.
For the stone thrower attack of the imperial army, he did not pay attention to it at all. Anyway, the stone thrower can't defeat Jianmen City, and the damaged place will be repaired when the imperial army is repelled.
As long as the imperial army didn't send people up, he didn't bother to go out to check, and just let his subordinates monitor it at any time.
"Report!" A shout rang out outside the door.
"Come in." Zhao Sanlazy shouted.
A herald walked in, then knelt down on one knee and said, "General, the reinforcements have arrived a hundred miles away, do you want to send someone to greet you?" ”
"Greet the fart. He is still worthy of being greeted by Lao Tzu? He's something. Zhao San was lazy and dismissive. I thought that the reinforcements sent were my old brothers, but I didn't expect it to be Mo Wuyan, a sinister guy.
