Chapter 395: Pavilion in the Sky
When the Qin army was about to begin, they deployed in formation and made a posture of forcibly attacking the city.
The gloomy atmosphere in the hall was even worse, especially the Qin army under the banner of avenging the envoys of the great cadres and safeguarding the dignity of the great cadres.
For a while, the generals, the staff, and the thoughts were trapped in the endless abyss of terror.
When frightened, Dai Yangshuo recovered first, took a deep breath, hugged his fists sideways, and said: "Lord Wang, recently, Shen Tuxiu, Lu Linxuan led the army to harass him night and night, and the gongs and drums sounded in unison during the day, so that the Jingxiang army had no time to rest.
On the other hand, the Qin army, recuperating and recovering its vitality, at this time, the king of Qin led the army to attack the city, and it was obvious that he wanted to take advantage of the exhaustion of the Jingxiang army to quickly fight and seize the city with thunder. ”
When everyone heard the news, they were deeply anxious.
What Dai Yangshuo said is by no means impossible.
The key Qin kings waved the banner of maintaining the dignity of the great cadres, which put them at a moral disadvantage.
Today, even if he is lucky enough to resist the Qin army, the Daqian Dragoon in Dakang may come quickly to avenge Shen Yun.
"General Tao, how many defenders are there in the city at present, and how long can they hold out." Zhao Tuo was unaware of the danger of his situation.
The only thing that can be done is to lead the army to resist and delay until the time specified by the cadres.
On the other hand, he sent Zhao Chang to carry a congratulatory gift and quickly set off for Longcheng to explain what happened in Dongwu Mountain to the great Qianjun ministers.
As much as possible, in the shortest possible time, find out the murderer of Shen Yun and clear his grievances.
Tao Jixi stroked his beard and replied: "Lord Wang, tens of thousands of elites have been gathered in the city, and if you include the remnants of the soldiers led by General Dong, there are more than 100,000 elites. With the strong city defense of Puling City, it is estimated that the last general will hold on to at least until the day specified by the Great Qian.
Besides, the emperor, Mu Yi, Mu Heng, Qi State, Chu State, etc. have all stopped the truce, the closer to the time specified by the Great Qian, the more the King of Qin has to consider the idea of the Great Qian, the last general believes that even if the Qin army is under the banner of maintaining the dignity of the Great Qian, it will not dare to forcibly attack Puling City during the truce. ”
Call!
Zhao Tuo took a long breath, hoping that it would be as Tao Jixi said.
He got up slowly, his eyes were cold, and he said, "Zhao Chang, Gao Yi, you should immediately bring a congratulatory gift, hurry up to Longcheng, and explain it clearly to the great Qianjun ministers." ”
Heading to Dragon City?
Zhao Chang looked at Zhao Tuo in surprise and couldn't believe it.
Shen Yun's tragic death in Dongwu Mountain must have annoyed Daqian, and he took a congratulatory gift to Longcheng, clearly throwing himself into the net.
"Father, now go to Dragon City" Zhao Chang hesitated and stammered, a little reluctant to go to Dragon City, lest he be arrested and imprisoned as soon as he entered Dragon City, and finally died in a foreign country.
What's more, Zhao Sheng was imprisoned by the Qin army, and Zhao Xing led the army in the south.
The defenders of Puling City held on for a long time, but if when he went to Longcheng, the city fell, his father was captured, and the military power of the four states of Jingxiang would all fall into the hands of Zhao Xing.
Luckily, he returned safely from Longcheng, and there was no place for him in Jingxiang Sizhou.
"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Tuo asked coldly.
Zhao Chang was in place, and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "Puling City is in danger, my father is in poor health, at a critical moment, how can the child abandon his father and go, if he goes to Dragon City, he should also be after repelling the Qin army." ”
"Humph!"
Zhao Tuo snorted, did not urge Zhao Chang again, swept the generals in the hall with cold eyes, and shouted: "The Qin army is aggressive, all the generals go to the city with this king, this king wants to see what Ji Xuanling can do to take the city." ”
With the experience of Changchuan City and Qingshui City, the city defense of Puling City is impregnable, and a large number of bed crossbows are deployed, which can attack the Qin army from a distance.
The Qin army did not attack the city, but its life was in danger, and the defense of the city was not in the slightest danger.
If there is danger, it is only that the defenders in the city are tired, but the defenders in the city occupy a favorable position and can stop the Qin army for a day.
"Whoa!"
The generals were ordered to follow Zhao Tuo.
The sun is scorching.
Dusty air.
The Qin army rode well, bravely, shuttled outside Puling City, lined up, and assembled.
Ji Xuanling led the elite soldiers and fierce generals, stopped outside the north gate, embraced Zhao Yiren, looked up at the towering city in front of him, the strict defense of the city, and his eyes showed contempt.
The Qin army lined up, and the infantry phalanx was divided into three places.
All of them are violent, like hungry wolves howling.
The delicious taste is right in front of them, waiting for them to feast on.
Ji Xuanling pointed his halberd at Puling City, his face was majestic, and he said to the general beside him: "There is only one day away from the time specified by the Great Qian, and this battle must be a great victory." ”
"Your Majesty, the road has been built, and the city wall in front of you is already a castle in the air." Lu Linxuan raised the knife and reported.
"Good!"
"Good!"
Ji Xuanling nodded with satisfaction, and commanded sharply: "General Lu, General Shentu, you lead the infantry to the two wings respectively, wait for the order of this king, and prepare to attack the city." ”
"Whoa!"
Suddenly, Lu Linxuan, Shen Tuxiu, each took Lu Kang, and Wu Yuankui rode away.
Ji Xuanling hugged Zhao Yiren, grabbed the halberd, caressed the beauty's soft hair, and waited calmly.
However, the beautiful woman in his arms, Liu Xiangjun on horseback next to him, Ruan Chengcheng, Princess Mengluo, Gao Zongli and Mu Cangchi, who were armed guards, either knew or did not know what Qin Jun was planning.
In the faces, the color of anxiety rose up.
The three armies were assembled, full of momentum, and in a state of siege.
Sudden surprise attack, the Jingxiang army that must have been beaten fell into the water, at this time, the three armies did not move, let Mu Cangchi, Gao Zongli was puzzled.
Zhao Yiren, the fourth daughter of Ruan Chengcheng, is nervous and excited.
Earlier, Ji Xuanling told them to pack their bags, seize Puling City, capture Zhao Tuo alive, and take them to Dragon City by ferry.
This made the four girls extremely excited, especially Zhao Yiren and Liu Xiangjun.
I can't wait for the King of Qin to seize the city immediately and sail to Dragon City.
"Lang Jun, General Lu reported that the city wall is already a castle in the air, why didn't Lang Jun wave his army to attack the city, it was just waiting for the elite to sneak into the city, and the inside and outside should be combined." Zhao Yiren turned his head to ask, his face confused.
"Hahaha, the husband has his own opinions." Ji Xuanling glanced at Puling City, looked up and smiled, approached Zhao Yiren, and whispered a few words in her ear.
Zhao Yiren nodded silently, but rolled his eyes and glanced at him.
At this time, Zhao Tuo sat in a wheelchair and arrived at the head of the city in the crowd of generals.
Ascending the city tower, he looked out condescendingly, and the outside of the city was densely packed with arrays of Qin troops.
swept through the Qin army one by one, and in the end, Zhao Tuo's gaze was fixed on the center of the Qin army.
Glaring at Ji Xuanling, his eyes full of hatred, staring back and forth at Zhao Yiren and Liu Xiangjun.
His princess actually followed Ji Xuanling to conquer him.
Zhao Yiren stayed in Ji Xuanling's arms even more unscrupulously, with a slight smile on his face.
In an instant, Zhao Tuo's face was full of anger, and he coughed violently, and a feeling of being humiliated spontaneously arose.
Ji Xuanling occupied his princess, and dared to openly swagger through the market.
The shame of the past seems to be vivid in an instant.
Zhao Tuo clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and shouted to the generals next to him: "General Tao, quick, quickly arrange archers to shoot Ji Xuanling and two sluts." ”
