Chapter 19: The Ancestor of the Immortal Gate

Zezhou City, the government office. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Yun sat on the top of the hall, with a blurred gaze, through the hall door, looking at the fireworks in the city, silent.

When the three hundred trebuchets lined up in front of the city wall of Zezhou, he knew that he was not far from defeat. But hearing that there were less than two days left in the military order to capture Zezhou City, it still gave him a glimmer of hope for luck. But when the explosion of the divine thunder rang out in a row, he realized that even this last glimmer of hope had dissipated.

"Captain, the fire is now uncontrollable, and we must evacuate immediately." The one who spoke was the assassination of Liu Duwei, who had failed outside Kaifeng City.

"Evacuate? Where is the retreat going? Li Yun said silently.

"Now the party is still under the control of our army, and its city is strong, not weak Zezhou." Liu Duwei suggested.

Li Yun said with a wry smile on his face: "What's the difference with now?" "A city can be burned, but another city can be burned.

"This ......." Liu Duwei thought for a moment and said: "The Song army is just a fluke victory this time, as long as our army is fully prepared, it will definitely be able to hold on for more than a year. ”

Li Yun sighed and said, "You all underestimate Song Jun, the newly appointed Captain of Soldiers and Horses, he will not give us a chance." ”

"He's just a stinky kid, and he just relied on the divine thunder in his hand to catch our army off guard." Liu Duwei was not convinced. In his opinion, attacking a city with such a thing as divine thunder is not a real skill.

"Then after our army retreats to the party, how will it deal with the divine thunder?" Li Yun said in a somewhat pessimistic tone.

"When the people heard the explosion of the divine thunder for the first time, they inevitably panicked, and the Song army added a kind of water with the smell of wine, which burned when it caught fire, which made the fire difficult to control. As long as we take extra precautions, we can definitely put out the fire on the spot. Liu Duwei persuaded.

"Our army has now reached such a situation, and you dare to underestimate this news. He used 300 trebuchets to intimidate our army for nearly half a day, causing turmoil in the hearts of our army. But he remained calm and unhurried.

The timing of the attack was chosen at the moment of sunset, which had great intentions, and when the sky was getting dark, coupled with the sound of divine thunder explosions, the people thought that the heavens had come to the world, and they were terrified in their hearts, and under the panic, chaos was inevitable. Even if our army wanted to put out the fires of the people, it would be difficult to do so. Li Yun said in a heavy tone.

Liu Duwei frowned and said: "Then why didn't he choose to attack the city in the middle of the night, under the panic of the whole city, wouldn't he be able to fight down, and it would be difficult for our army to escape?" ”

Hearing Liu Duwei's questioning words, Li Yun actually laughed, and after calming down his laughter, he shook his head slightly and said: "Song Ting, these fools, seeing that they are about to fail, since they can't take Zezhou City, they want to find a scapegoat to take the blame, but unfortunately they never thought that this sheep is a man with strong horns." ”

"Scapegoat?" Liu Duwei was a little puzzled.

Li Yun snorted: "Since ancient times, the emperor has personally conquered, and Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose, otherwise where is the emperor's majesty!" Zhao Yuanlang plans to use this son as a scapegoat, if the siege fails, the final responsibility will be borne by Wen, and it has nothing to do with him. You can also earn this sub-god thunder secret recipe, and by the way, cure the crime of defeating the army, and the first title with a real seal in hundreds of years can also be eliminated here.

Such a beautiful thing has now come to naught. ”

"........." Hearing Li Yun's explanation, Liu Duwei opened his mouth blankly, he didn't know what words to do, the political struggle was really complicated, and it was far from being understood by his own big-headed soldiers.

Li Yun continued: "With such a young hero with strength, strategy, benevolence, and even luck, what do you think is the odds of this official? ”

"Huh?!" Liu Duwei really didn't expect that Wen would be so appreciated by Taiwei.

"As you just said, the reason why he didn't attack the city in the middle of the night, or even at noon, was for no other reason, just to save the people in the city." Li Yun sighed.

"Ahh Liu Duwei's thinking really can't keep up with Li Yun's rhythm of touting.

"Attacking the city at noon, under the blue sky and white sun, our army will inevitably send military service to put out the fire of the people, so that our army and the people will all be burned to death in the city and buried in the fire. Attacking the city in the middle of the night, the people could not see, and they would definitely not be able to escape, and they would definitely die.

How good the timing is now, under the panic of the people, they can take the road and escape, and our army will not send military service to make the people fight the fire, and now the sky is dark, it will definitely be too late to fight the fire, as long as the official is not crazy, he will definitely not do such a thing that loses his conscience. Li Yun laughed.

".........." Li Yun said a lot today, and Liu Duwei was difficult to digest for a while.

Li Yun looked at Liu Duwei, who was in a state of ignorance, and sighed: "The reason why the official said it thoroughly today is that I hope that you don't have to think about avenging me in the future, this is the time, and the fate is also!" ”

"Why did the Captain say that?" Liu Duwei wondered.

Li Yun said resolutely: "This official has decided to live and die with Zezhou. Liu Duwei, you have turned to the party since you turned around, and told me that my son observes the festival, there is no need to avenge his father, he must live, and continue my Li family's incense. ”

"Taiwei ........" Liu Duwei opened his mouth to persuade.

Li Yun raised his hand to stop and said: "You don't have to dissuade, I have made up my mind, if the Li family wants the incense to continue, they must pay something, and the life of this official is a bargaining chip." "As the defeated party of the rebellion, the court will not let it go easily, maybe there is no need to behead all the doors, but the first evil must be eliminated, otherwise where is the majesty of the court.

"Captain, we can definitely make a comeback." Liu Duwei knelt down on one knee and admonished.

Li Yun smiled bitterly and said: "There is no chance, Yangzhou Li Chongjin is the gutsless rat, and said that he would start an incident at the same time, and the north and south would attack, but the moon has passed, and he is still at both ends of the snake and rat, swaying."

On the Huangquan Road, the official will definitely wait for him. ”

"Tai Lieutenant, it's still too late for us to leave, the Song army is just guarding the south gate, and the other three gates can leave." Liu Duwei sobbed. Li Yun's decision to sit still was really difficult for him to accept.

"The Song army lost 50,000 soldiers, and it was difficult to conquer the fortified city, and in the hands of Wen, none of them died, and they turned the century-old giant city of Zezhou into ashes.

Don't persuade anymore, just leave quickly. Seeing the flames in the sky, it was already burning towards the main hall of the mansion, Li Yun waved his hand.

"Captain!" Liu Duwei bowed his hand with tears in his eyes.

Li Yun smiled slightly: "Tell Shoujie, live well, and don't have to take revenge." ”

"Xiaguan, you will definitely avenge the captain with a sword." Liu Duwei said sharply with a pale face.

"You are far from being the opponent of Wen, you don't have to be sent to death, and the enemy of this official is not Wen, you just need to pass a word to him for this official, and say that this is a test for Penglai Xianmen to him." A glimmer of light flashed in Li Yun's eyes, and he said with a slightly gloomy smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The people sent by Penglai Immortal Sect evacuated from it, and they were all a group of villains." Liu Duwei said hatefully.

"This official was bewitched by it and became a pawn in their hands, so he deserved this calamity. Tell Shoujie that it is strictly forbidden for the descendants of the Li family to get involved in the Xianmen again. Li Yun waved his hand and said solemnly: "Leave quickly." ”

"Captain...... See you again in the next life........" Liu Duwei glanced at Li Yun, who was sitting on the hall with a slight smile, and his heart was slightly decided, and after kneeling on his knees and kowtowing three times, he turned around and rushed out of the main hall of the mansion that had begun to burn.

The fire was raging, along the carved beams of the palace, and rushed towards the main hall.

When the main hall collapsed, a loud shout came out from the flames in the sky with a hint of arrogance: "Peng Zu! In hell, Li Mou will have a good time with you. ”
