Ma Ye stood on the tower of the southern city, looking at the dark crowd under the city wall, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Although it is not clear about the situation of the other city gates, Ma Ye can judge that there are probably not a few people.

It's no less than here.

Then the question arises again, the Turkic Jieli Khan sent so many people to besiege Chang'an City, I am afraid there is only one purpose.

That's resources, but more appropriately, that's food.

The Turkic royal court was composed of many large and small tribes, all of whom were nomadic people, and were not good at growing grain, but could only raise some horses, cattle and sheep, which could be used for grazing.

And I'm afraid that they will be in great demand this year, otherwise they wouldn't have blatantly captured Chang'an City in the middle of winter.

I'm afraid they are singing all the way to victory, but if there is no gap, I'm afraid they won't be discovered before they reach Chang'an City, so the question is, who is this insistence? I'm afraid that the first to bear the brunt is the Shanhaiguan General Army.

Because Shanhaiguan is the only pass to stop the Turkic army.

It is a barrier to the north.

If it weren't for the internal problems in Shanhaiguan, I'm afraid that the Turks would not have been able to reach the boundary of Chang'an City at all.

But now Ma Ye knows that this is not the time to arrest the spies.

The question that should be considered is how to defend Chang'an City, once Chang'an City is captured, I am afraid that the situation in the entire Han and Tang Dynasties will become chaotic.

Those families care about their own interests, and they don't care who rules the land.

"Report, General. I looked at the Turks outside the four walls and guessed that they were between 750,000 or 800,000 men, but the strange thing was that their trumpets kept blowing, but they had no intention of attacking. A scout hurriedly reported to Ma Ye.

Ma Ye fell into deep thought, and sure enough, it was not much different from what he had guessed.

The Turks besieged Chang'an City to the brim, and I am afraid that the wolf smoke will not spread farther, and the Han and Tang Dynasty troops who can rescue Chang'an City, I am afraid that there are only 30,000 people and the state army, can arrive in time within two days.

The other armies are too far away from Chang'an City, and if they want to rescue, I'm afraid it will take much longer to come.

And in the current situation, the Turks have an army of seven or eight hundred thousand.

I'm afraid Chang'an City won't hold out for five days.

So even if they come, it's too late.

It's just that at this time, a melodious drum sounded.

A veteran in Chang'an City knew that they were leaving now.

"Son, bring Grandpa's armor." An old man to a middle-aged man.

"Grandpa, you've stepped down. And I believe that with the defenders inside Chang'an City, they can deal with the situation outside. The middle-aged man said, although they knew that the enemy was coming, but they did not know the situation outside.

", if you think the enemy is easy this time, then you are very wrong. Judging by the sound of the trumpet, the Turks came, but what you don't know is that I didn't do it on a whim, but the drum sounded, and you won't understand the meaning. I'm afraid we're going to face a lot of enemies this time, maybe more than 500,000 people, you know? Under 500,000 people, Chang'an City is naturally worry-free. But once this number is exceeded, Chang'an City is in danger. After the old man finished speaking, he did not urge the middle-aged man to get the armor, but quickly got up and walked like a room containing the armor.

And this situation is in almost every household.

Yinhuan, the general of the auxiliary state, accompanied His Royal Highness the Prince of the Prison State, standing on the upper floor of the east city.

"The drum of the gathering will sound, I'm afraid this time, we are really in danger." Yinhuan, the general of the auxiliary country, said that the women's army is worthy of being the elite of the Han and Tang troops, and I am afraid that among all the armies in Chang'an City, their reaction speed is the fastest.

And quickly made a defensive state, covering the entire Chang'an City wall above the road.

"But the number of people is still too small, how long can we stay. And in this case, it would be a death for the state army to come to the rescue. Li Shimin already had a general understanding of the situation, and he didn't expect the Turks to come so quickly this time. And there are so many of them.

If they didn't have an internal response in Shanhaiguan, they wouldn't have been able to get through at all.

In this situation, it is impossible to break through, and you can only defend Chang'an City.

Or make peace.

But this time, I'm afraid the Turks will open their mouths.

"The tent of the Turkic Khan." The lieutenant beside Li Shimin, the prince of the prison state, exclaimed in surprise, how is this possible, the Turkic Jieli Khan actually drove the expedition in person.

"No, it won't." Li Shimin, the crown prince of the prison state, followed the direction of Wei Chiwu's finger, and only saw a golden point of light.

"We all know that your eyesight is excellent and unbreakable, and you are sure that it is the tent of the Turkic Khan." Yinhuan, the general of the auxiliary state, was taken aback by Wei Chi's words, if it was the Turkic Khan's personal expedition, I am afraid that even if peace is negotiated, Han and Tang will suffer heavy losses this time.

Because the Turkic Jieli Khan was an insatiable man, and there was no room for return.

"I'm sure, so the prince of the prison country still gave an order as soon as possible to let the imperial relatives transfer away from the secret passage, as long as the Li family still has a little blood, the Han and Tang dynasties will not die." At this time, the general of the auxiliary country couldn't take into account any etiquette, and directly put forward his own suggestions.

"In this matter, you send a henchman to inform the golden gun, these ministers have not arrived for a long time, I am afraid that they have already guessed the seriousness of the problem, so leave him alone." Li Shimin, the crown prince of the prison state, was very chilled, he didn't expect that at this moment, none of these ministers came over except for these military attachés.

It's just that at this time, several old men climbed the tower.

"The old minister's legs and feet are inconvenient, and he is late, I hope the prince will forgive his sins." An old man with a white beard stood trembling at Li Shimin.

When Li Shimin looked at these old men, he felt sad for a while.

In the end, here come these guys.

They are all the founding heroes of the Han and Tang Dynasties' southern and northern wars.

Taishi, Taifu, Taibao, Taiwei, Situ, Sikong, and finally the right prime minister.

"The prince of the prison country, those ministers have been dispersed by me, they have never seen this kind of pomp. Even if it comes, it won't be of any use. How to talk about giving advice. And there is one thing that must be told to His Royal Highness the Prince of the Prison State, that is, the old minister has seen His Majesty, and His Majesty has written Mi Marsh, and now Li Kuan, the king of Xiaoyao, is there. Old Sikong said, because not long after the horn sounded, His Majesty the Emperor secretly found him, and then explained some things, and then disappeared.

Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this, and his father had found Lao Sikong.

That can only explain one reason, my father was not sick at all.

Because in the palace, the emperor's every move, the crown prince Li Shimin is well aware.

And after arriving at the Xiaoyao Palace, the emperor was out of Li Shimin's control.

Li Shimin knows that only at this moment. Only then could his own father act alone.

"Although I don't want to say it, I still told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Prison State, and the old minister has also seen Your Majesty, and Your Majesty told the old minister something, and then disappeared." The old lieutenant said that His Majesty the Emperor had sought him out and told him the truth about some things, and then he got rid of him, and the man he had sent to follow him was nowhere to be found.

"My father is missing." Hearing the news, Li Shimin's head buzzed.

Although Li Shimin put Li Yuan under house arrest, Li Shimin knew that there was no way to do it.

Because everyone has desires, and so is Li Shimin.

And Li Shimin knows that his biggest threat is Ma Ye.

He was afraid that Li Yuan would pass the throne to Ma Ye.

Although the jade seal of the country is in the hands of Li Shimin.

But after all, without Li Yuan's holy decree, it is not unspeakable.

Well, now His Majesty the Emperor is missing.

Wei Chi came to the edge of the city wall and looked at the Turkic soldiers under the city wall.

They just kept blowing the trumpet, but they didn't attack.

Because the lieutenant was slow to plan, he knew that it was not that they did not attack, but that the Turkic army, one of the most disciplined armies in the world.

Without the order of the supreme commander, there will be no attack.
