Xinzheng City.

Jin Di stood in the main hall of the palace city, quietly listening to Han Wangran's complaints.

"Jin Qing, when will the offensive of the Zhao people stop? It's been a long time since the widow had a good night's sleep! ”

What Han Wangran said is indeed the truth.

Due to the implementation of the layout of a small city and a large Guo, the palace city of Xinzheng is not located in the center of the entire city (that is, the inner city) like the Forbidden City in later generations, but is located in the southwest corner of Xinzheng.

Although Xinzheng City has an additional city wall, this small city wall is not enough to stop Zhao Jun's trebuchet.

These days, at least hundreds of boulders have been thrown into the palace city by Zhao Jun through trebuchets, but fortunately, none of the major palaces are close to the city walls, so they have not caused much damage.

But the problem was that when the trebuchet landed, the noise was very loud, even if it was hundreds of steps away from the main hall, the rumbling sound still made Han Wangran's heart tremble.

What made Han Wangran even more annoyed was that this Zhao people not only threw it during the day, but also threw it at night.

Thinking about sleeping well in the middle of the night, suddenly "booming", this makes people a little unbearable.

If it was just a trebuchet, it would have been fine, but as the war continued, the legendary "earth-shattering thunder" weapon of the Zhao people also began to exert its might.

Compared with the trebuchet, the deafening sound when the earth-shaking thunder exploded was undoubtedly more shocking.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the location of the first blasting of the earth-shaking thunder chosen by Zhao Guoren happened to be in the southwest corner of Xinzheng City, that is, on the side of Miyagi.

When he heard the explosion of earth-shattering thunder for the first time, Han Wangran, who was unprepared, jumped up directly, and his knee hit the corner of the table, and it took three days to complete the swelling.

After that, Han Wangran became a little suspicious, and every time the sound of trebuchet or earth-shaking thunder reached his ears, his heart would clench violently, and he felt like he was out of breath.

After all, Han Wangran is not the kind of general who fights on the battlefield all year round, and when the war is naked in front of him in this way, he is obviously still a little overwhelmed.

Under such a long period of torture, Han Wangran, whose eyes were red, looked like a powder keg that could explode at any time.

In fact, these days, there are one or two palace people who are directly ordered to be killed by Han Wangran because of various trivial matters.

Jin Di was helpless in his heart, so he had to try his best to appease his own king: "The king doesn't have to worry, the minister has already taken defensive measures, and the palace is the top priority, and the people of Zhao have absolutely no chance to attack it." ”

Han Wangran snorted and said in a deep voice: "Of course the widow knows that the Zhao people can't attack it, the ancestors of the Korean dynasties have run Xinzheng for so many years, how can the Zhao people be able to break through it if they want to?" He said with a proud expression.

But immediately, this pride turned into irritability: "Jin Qing, do you have any new information from other countries?" ”

That's not good about being besieged, because you don't know what's going on outside, and you just have to wait passively for reinforcements that don't know when they're coming.

This kind of long wait, which does not know when it will end, is actually very draining of people's will.

Jin Di thought for a moment and said, "The king doesn't have to worry, if you count the days, one of the Chu army or the Qin army should also arrive." ”

Han Wangran nodded and said in a muffled voice, "That's the best." You remembered it for the widow, and as soon as the reinforcements arrived, you immediately led the army to kill it, and joined forces with the reinforcements, so that these damn Zhao people knew that the widow's Xinzheng City didn't come when they wanted to, and they left when they wanted! ”

Jin Huang opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, but lowered his head deeply and said, "Oh! ”

When he walked out of the palace, Jin Huang let out a long breath, and the original calm on his face suddenly disappeared in an instant, replaced by a face full of worry.

"Reinforcements, reinforcements...... When will it come? ”

To be honest, even Jin Huang himself didn't know when the reinforcements would arrive.

"That's it, anyway, the people of Zhao Guoren can't break through Xinzheng City for a while......" Jin Di left the palace while cheering himself up.

He hurried back to command the defense.

The day's siege was over, and night fell.

In the handsome tent of the Zhao army's camp outside the city, Lian Po, the chief general of the Zhao army this time, was also a little not too calm.

"How could the king negotiate peace with the people of Qin, what do you think?" The thought kept echoing in the old general's mind.

You must know that at the beginning, Lian Po felt that although Li Mu was far away in Guanzhong, as long as Li Mu could be given some time, then Li Mu would definitely be able to open up the situation in Guanzhong.

There is no need to negotiate peace.

Fortunately, as a general, although Lian Po has opinions in his heart, he will not say that he will disobey the orders of his own king - in fact, there is nothing Lian Po has to do with Qin to negotiate peace.

At this moment, Lian Po was looking at a letter, a letter from Handan, the capital of Zhao State.

The letter was written by Yu Xin.

What surprised Lian Po was the contents of the letter.

Although Yu Xin was written a little tactfully, Lian Po could still see that Yu Xin agreed with this peace.

"Why would Yu Qing approve of this peace negotiation?" The old general looked a little distressed.

Lian Po didn't believe that Yu Xin couldn't see the disadvantages of this peace conference for Zhao Guo.

After a while, Lian Po's heart suddenly moved: "Could it be that there is anything else I don't know?" If that's the case, it makes sense. ”

But then the old general fell into even greater doubts: "If this is the case, then what do the king and Yu Qing know, and why don't they tell Yu Wu?" ”

The old general had a headache thinking about it, so he simply didn't want to.

"It's better to have a good rest, our warriors only need to fight bravely for the king, as for other things, naturally the king will come up with ideas."

For his own king, the old general Lian Po is still very relieved.

Although the king was not as willing to accept the opinions of his subordinates as his father, King Zhao Huiwen, it must be said that many times the king's decision was correct.

Just as Lian Po was about to turn off the lights and go to bed, a sound of footsteps suddenly came from far and near, followed by the voice of the deputy general Lecheng.

"General, urgent military situation!"

Lian Po, who had just taken off his armor, paused for a moment, and then raised his voice: "Come in." ”

A moment later, Lecheng walked in with a man tied up with a lot of flowers.

Lian Po looked up and found that this person was wearing Han Jun's armor, and couldn't help but sigh: "You caught it?" ”

You must know that in a siege like this, it is actually quite difficult to capture a defender's prisoner.

Le Cheng shook his head and said, "General, this person took the initiative to go out of the city, saying that he was ordered to give a piece of information to the general. ”

Lian Po looked at the person in front of him with some surprise and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

The captive owed a debt and said to Lian Po: "It's such a general, I am a doorman of Huayang Jun Feng Ting's mansion, and this time I am on the order of my monarch to dedicate Xinzheng to the general." ”

"What?" Lian Po's eyes flashed, and a hint of joy flashed across his face.

Although it seems that it is only a matter of time before Xinzheng is taken down in the current situation, the problem is that it takes three months to win Xinzheng and one year to win Xinzheng, and the difference is obviously very big.

However, Lian Po did not believe the captive's words, but said in a deep voice: "How can you prove your identity?" ”

The captive snorted at Le Cheng and said, "I have a secret letter with me, which was written by my lord himself, and the general only needs to look at the letter. ”

Lian Po glanced at Lecheng, Lecheng understood, and took out a secret letter that had not yet been opened: "General, this is the secret letter found from this person's hand." ”

Lian Po nodded and opened the secret letter.

The content of the letter was indeed as the captive said, Feng Ting, the former prime minister of South Korea, Huayang Jun, in the letter, Feng Ting bluntly stated that he and some Korean ministers were willing to surrender to Zhao and cooperate with Zhao Jun to win Xinzheng as an internal and external officer.

At the end of the letter were several stamps, and there were a few other people besides Feng Ting's own, who seemed to be those ministers who were willing to defect from Korea with Feng Ting.

Lian Po was silent for a long time, and said to the captive: "How is Huayangjun going to cooperate with me to break the city?" ”

The captive said: "General Hui, there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the city in Xinzheng Palace, which is used to allow King Han to escape in an emergency, and my lord happens to know the exit of this secret passage." The general only needs to send an elite army to accompany me to the secret passage, and then appear in the palace from the secret passage, not only can he capture the king of Han in one fell swoop, but it is also easy to break through Xinzheng City. ”

Lian Po was silent for a moment and said, "There are usually some mechanisms in a secret passage like this. I don't think that just knowing one exit will allow you to enter Miyagi in South Korea smoothly. ”

The captive smiled: "That's natural, these secret passages are protected by mechanisms, and they can only be opened on the side of Miyagi. But the general has such a strange thing as the earth-shattering thunder in his hands, isn't it easy to make any mechanism? ”

Lian Po was silent for a long time and said, "You know the exit of this secret passage? ”

The captive nodded and said, "I am willing to lead the way for the general." ”

"Good." Lian Po nodded, and asked the captive to be taken out first, and then said to Le Cheng: "You will go and order two thousand elite soldiers now, and set off with him to the secret passage." Also, go to the quartermaster and get enough Skyquake and grenades. ”

Le Cheng hesitated for a moment and said, "General, this may also be a trap. ”

Lian Po said in a deep voice: "Of course I know, but this is also an opportunity to win Xinzheng in one fell swoop, I think it's still worth a try, go ahead!" As a lieutenant general, you don't have to rush to the front line, you can just command in the rear. Remember, if you see a bad situation, lead your team to withdraw immediately! ”

A quarter of an hour later, many Zhao generals heard the news and came to Lian Po's big tent.

Two quarters of an hour later, a force of 2,000 men quietly left the Zhao army camp in the dark.

Half an hour later, the Zhao army camp, which seemed to be quiet, began to slowly become active.

The soldiers of the South Korean army at the head of Xinzheng City still don't know anything about this.
