Chapter 762: Morale is low, and people are scattered

Gongsun Yuan did not want to surrender. Even if the current situation is very bad for him.

The departure of 20,000 Goguryeo soldiers had a great impact on the morale of the defenders in the city.

Originally, in the face of Zhao Hui's attack, they were under a lot of pressure.

Now that Pingbai has lost nearly half of his manpower, facing the attack of Zhao Hui's army during the day, they only feel as if the city gate will be breached at any time.

At that time, the Goguryeo people were leaving, and Gongsun Yuan originally wanted to stop it.

However, if 20,000 Goguryeo people made trouble in the city, Liaodong City would be disrupted at that time, and even blood would flow like a river.

Then Zhao Hui's army will immediately enter the city.

So despite his anger, Gongsun Yuan did not dare to stop the Goguryeo people from leaving.

This is not his power, nor is it the power of Liaodong.

Even if he controlled the commander of Goguryeo, it would be useless.

Zhao Hui still sent men and horses to attack every day.

The daily consumption of arrows and rocks is very large.

But in Liaodong City, morale is getting lower and lower.

Even the soldiers who stood guard every night began to slack.

A lot of people are already thinking about their own way out.

When the city is broken, how can they save their lives?

Although Zhao Hui launched an attack every day, every time it was actually just a consumption of arrows and falling rocks.

The attrition of the soldiers was very small.

He has not yet officially launched a strong attack.

He can't stay in Liaodong for a long time, but at this moment, Gongsun Yuan can't drag it out.

Not only is the morale of the soldiers in the city low, but also the ordinary people.

Liu Yu has not done nothing in the past few years in Liaodong.

He truly loved the people like a son, and never treated the people harshly.

The influence of the Gongsun family had long been minimized by Liu Yu.

In Liaodong, the Gongsun family has long been unpopular now.

And now in the city, it has also begun to spread that the previous Taishou Liu Yu was killed by Gongsun Huang.

In the streets and alleys, there was talk of the Gongsun family everywhere, and hundreds of people were cursing the Gongsun family.

Originally, they lived well.

Over the years, their lives have been getting better and better, all because of Liu Yu and Zhao Hui.

And the Gongsun family, for their own selfish interests, killed Taishou Liu Yu, so that Liaodong rekindled the flames of war.

It is destroying their stable home and destroying their happy life.

At first, it was just gossip and complaining.

Later, someone began to curse the Gongsun family and wept bitterly for Liu Yu's death. At first, some people proposed to avenge Liu Yu.

At night, in Gongsun Yuan's mansion, someone threw stones in from the outside.

By the time the guards went out, they had already disappeared.

Gongsun Gong didn't dare to go out anymore.

Because there are people in the city again, Gongsun Huang did not die of illness, but was assassinated.

Because someone wanted to avenge Liu Yu Taishou, he killed Gongsun Huang.

Gongsun Huang has been buried, and not many people know the inside story.

Now it has spread out, and all the people of the city know about it.

Gongsun Gong knew that this was true, and he was not afraid of those unarmed people. But he was afraid of the assassin of Gongsun Huang.

Even after a few months, the assassin who assassinated Gongsun Huang still didn't have a single eyebrow.

Zhao Hui was a little pity, if he had brought Gongsun Huang's head before, and threw it into the city at this moment, the people of the Gongsun family would have been unable to sleep at night.

It's a pity that Gongsun Huang's head has been buried in the cemetery outside Jicheng, together with Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao.

However, Gongsun Huang's grave has no tombstone for the time being.

Gongsun Gong couldn't stand it anymore, and his spirit was about to collapse.

During the day, he was worried that Zhao Hui's army would rush in, and at night he was worried that someone would break into his mansion and assassinate him.

Even with dozens of guards around him, he couldn't sleep peacefully.

Gongsun Yuan's courage is greater than that of Gongsun Gong.

Although there were many guards around him, Gongsun Yuan slept as usual every night, and he slept peacefully, not worrying about being assassinated at all.

Compared with Gongsun Du Gongsun Huang, Gongsun Yuan's ambition is the greatest.

Gongsun Du Gongsun Huang wants to be a soil emperor at most, and he is still a courtier of the Han Dynasty in name, but in fact, he doesn't listen to the tune or the announcement, and only cares about his own one-acre and three-point land.

But Gongsun Yuan has the heart to be called a king.

Far away, he was betrayed by Cao Wei and called himself King Yan, but unfortunately he was exterminated by Sima Yi not long after.

But even if Gongsun Yuan has ambitions, the situation in the city is getting worse and worse every day, and he is powerless to return to the sky.

Even if he insisted, it was already a matter of time before the city was broken.

Even when Gongsun Yuan went to the city wall in person during the day and drew his sword to fight, he failed to improve his morale.

"Lord, it's almost done." Jia Xu said.

In Liaodong City, the words that appeared these days were all released by Jia Xu.

is to constantly disintegrate the morale in the city and make the Gongsun family lose the hearts of the people.

Now even the 30,000 soldiers in Gongsun Yuan's hands have many people who don't want to fight for the Gongsun family.

In the past few days, the siege of the city twice a day, Zhao Hui also felt that the resistance of the enemy army on the city wall was getting weaker and weaker.

Even the arrows that counterattacked became sparse.

It seems to be telling Zhao Hui, you hurry up and attack the city.

I almost opened the city gates.

"Order, the whole army will be dispatched tomorrow morning."

Jia Xu has already said that the time is ripe, and Zhao Hui is not wasting time.

This trip to Liaodong is almost the same in time.

Moreover, the grain and grass delivered last time were only enough for about ten days.

Although there were warships and cargo ships, it was very convenient for Zhao Hui to transport grain and grass to Liaodong.

But the longer the time drags on, the more grain and grass consumption Zhao Hui's side will always have.

"No, I can't stand it."

In the city, Gongsun Gong had another sleepless night.

"Let's go, let's go now."

Gongsun Gong didn't want to stay in Liaodong anymore.

If he stays here, even if he is not assassinated, he will go crazy himself.

But now in the middle of the night, where did the soldiers dare to open the city gate and let Gongsun Gong out.

After Gongsun Yuan received the news, he immediately rushed to the city gate and dragged Gongsun Gong back.

But after Gongsun Gong's trouble, the defenders, who already had little morale, are even less war-minded now.

Even Gongsun Gong has to run, why are they still guarding the city?

Let's hurry up and run away, maybe there is still a way to live.

Gongsun Gong was taken back, but there were 30,000 defenders, but a large number of deserters appeared tonight.

Gongsun Yuan took Gongsun Gong back and let him be strictly guarded.

After all, it was his second uncle, if it was someone else, Gongsun Yuan would have ordered Gongsun Gong's head to be cut off at the city gate.

It's just that Gongsun Yuan doesn't know it yet, because of Gongsun Gong, there were a large number of deserters tonight, if he had known, even if Gongsun Gong was his second uncle, Gongsun Yuan would not hesitate to kill Gongsun Gong.

"The Zhao army has attacked the city."

When the day dawned, the defenders on the city walls sounded the alarm as usual.

It's just that the defenders on the city wall are all used to it.

But when I woke up this morning, I still got used to it.

They found that their comrades-in-arms, who were supposed to sleep next to them, were gone early in the morning.
