Everyone was stunned, and Bai Yong suddenly asked: "By the way, what are Uncle Chao and Dong De and Ah Rong doing, the lord sent them to travel before the war, and now it has been a few days since I thought about it." ”

Lu Yunzhi smiled and replied, "I'm asking them to contact the people of the heavens and the earth separately and let them come to support us." Zhu Jianwen sneered and said: "Don't waste your efforts, if they had reached out to help, they would have helped us a long time ago, how could they wait until today." ”

Fang Qingze shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily, they were all in the middle of a long time before, naturally they won't take the risk to help us, they may live a little longer if they don't move, and follow us to do it against Yu Qian, it is equivalent to pinning their heads to their belts, and they may lose their lives at any time, at that time they didn't know how many chances we had to win, so naturally they couldn't be trusted, but now it's different, after a few battles, we have proved our strength, and now on the day of the duel between the two armies, if Yu Qian wins, they will inevitably be destroyed sooner or later." , and if we win, the situation will be very different, they will become the people who helped us, and they also took the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, third brother, I am right. ”

"Exactly." Lu Yunzhi said, "That's why I waited until now, and then let the three of them go to find all the veins of the country." Qu Xiangtian patted Lu Yunzhi and said: "The third brother has done a good job, even if a few people from heaven and earth are willing to join our team, we will be greatly shocked, the most important thing is to greatly increase the morale of the army, and fighting with ghosts can be a good morale boost, and now the sergeant sees us fighting, but treats us as god-like characters." Everyone looked at each other a few times and smiled.

"When the new artillery is made and the ammunition is replenished, we can launch an artillery bombardment of the city of Beijing, and then detonate the gunpowder in the city, and the whole of Kyoto will be burned." Fang Qingze said, everyone nodded one after another, only Qu Xiangtian frowned and said again: "Although this will reduce the casualties of our soldiers a lot, it will cause disaster to the pond fish, the people in the city are innocent, and the people will not escape when the gunpowder explodes." ”

Lu Yunzhi wanted to argue, but when he saw Qu Xiangtian's frowning, he didn't speak again, but Fang Qingze said: "Big brother, the people are innocent, aren't our brothers who follow us innocent, they all have parents, wives and children, they are all flesh and blood, why do you want to hurt our own brothers for the sake of those so-called people." ”

Qu Xiangtian raised his head suddenly, his eyes swept over everyone, and he said in a firm tone: "Second brother, third brother, I have thought about these things for a long time about the soldiers under my subordinates and the righteousness of my brothers, I thought about it before you made those things in Nanjing, and I thought about this issue again and again after the release of military power in Nanjing, I think what you did was right, although I can't do this kind of thing in my life, but you are not wrong, this is war, war in all aspects, intrigue and deceit, whoever is ruthless can achieve the final victory." ”

Fang Qingze and the others glanced at each other, a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths, Qu Xiangtian finally figured it out, but he never thought that he still had a later word: "However, after my thinking all night, I think that the detonation of this matter must not be used until the critical moment, whether the people in the army are voluntary or forced, or for any other reason, in short, they have become a soldier, or even a general, from the moment they put on the armor, they must be ready to die on the battlefield at any time, I should have heard about the sergeant, I can charge into battle, I can break off alone, because I am a soldier and a soldier, but they are also soldiers, it is a matter of course for a soldier to die on the battlefield, and it is also the glory of their existence, the people are different, they are innocent, they have not taken up arms against us, they just want to live in peace, it doesn't matter who is the emperor, it doesn't matter who is in power, the world is good to them, they will enjoy life, as long as there is no way to live, they will not rise up, the people have not put weapons against us, How can we make them pay with their lives for their own lives, which is not only a symbol of timidity, but also a disgrace to a warrior. ”

Fang Qingze wanted to say more, but was gently pounded by Lu Yunzhi, and he didn't say anything anymore, Qu Xiangtian finally said: "There is no need to discuss this matter, second brother, third brother, see and hear, the four of you promised me not to detonate it in private." The three of them sighed, and could only nod their heads and agree.

Tan Qing suddenly sighed, then took out a small jar containing the Xuan Bee from his arms, listened to it twice and said, "The Gu poison in the city is being dispersed, and the Gu worms are also being killed one after another. Lu Yunzhi comforted: "That's natural, your Gu poison and Gu worms have not been released, they were disturbed by Cheng Fangdong, the coverage is not wide enough, if Yu Qian was defeated so easily, I really suspect that there is fraud, big brother, I think the city is busy clearing the Gu poison and treating the wounded, this will be a big chaos in the city, we might as well launch a round of attack, although it is hopeless to occupy the capital, but you can take advantage of the chaos to destroy the other party, you should not also oppose this." ”

"Naturally not, third brother, you don't want to make fun of me, I see, you and I quickly reorganized our troops, launched several rounds of main force raids, Qinwang's army was seriously damaged yesterday, morale is not high, you will take a detour from the back of the defenders of the less Desheng Gate attack, I led the army to pull the main force of the Ming army in our opposite Xuanwu, Zhengyang, Chongwen three doors to attack, second brother, third brother, leopard, Tan Qing, the four of you wait for us to start the battle, from last night's seriously damaged Fuchengmen attack again, Bai Yong, your injuries are undecided, temporarily recuperate, although the Ming army is in chaos in the city at the moment, but the number is still more than us, you must not storm or defend the city tower under the attack, see that the situation is not good, withdraw the army, the consumption of the Ming army's vital force is our goal this time, we must be caught off guard. Qu Xiangtian arranged, and everyone listened to his proper arrangement, and they went out of the account to lead the troops without objection.

Lu Yunyi and his party had fewer soldiers and horses, and they were well-trained and quickly assembled, and they hid outside the Fucheng Gate, preparing to attack after the two battles began according to the arrangement, at this time Fang Qingze sighed worriedly, but was seen by Lu Yunzhi, so he asked: "Second brother, are you worried about the eldest brother." ”

"That's not, I think what the eldest brother said has some truth, besides, you also know that the eldest brother is a contemporary hero, benevolence, righteousness and morality have long been engraved in his heart, if it really reaches the point where the war situation cannot be controlled, he still does not order the detonation, even if we blow up the capital, the eldest brother will be angry at most, and he will not cut off with you and me, so don't worry, the eldest brother is good to us, naturally there is no need to say, and his character is not only I know you but also understand, otherwise I would not have done something in Nanjing." Fang Qingze said,
