At this moment, standing on the city wall, Li Jiucheng looked out of the city, and suddenly his whole body was like falling into an ice cave. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Everywhere outside the city, the points of light of the fire bolts kept shining, and on the flat ground between Mishen Mountain and Kui Mountain, a fire dragon was winding towards the eastern city wall.

The Zhu family's army is here!

Finished!

Finally gathered some rebel troops to come back to defend the city, in Li Jiucheng's roar, these rebel soldiers were exhausted, and they could faintly hear the howl of "they will die when they enter the city" when they ran!

The trapped beast still fights, and finally the struggle begins!

Li Jiucheng's ambition was not great when he raised troops in Wuqiao, but later the siege of the city was unexpectedly smooth, and all the cities in Shandong were vulnerable, and he gradually established prestige among the rebels, and his own ** desire also rose.

But Zhu Jiajun's three words have always been the shadow in his heart.

It's just that, considering that I haven't been able to bump into Zhu Jiajun recently, I heard that they have left the country.

From the moment he captured Dengzhou, Li Jiucheng thought that he had gotten rid of this shadow, but now in just one day, he fell from heaven to hell.

Until, at this point, he understood.

He is not afraid of Zhu Jiajun, it is just a kind of self-deception.

It was not easy to hold on to the city defense, however, I soon heard that the other city gates had been broken by the Zhu family's army, and they had already entered the city.

Now, he was attacked both before and after. I have to hold on to one place!

At this time, Li Jiucheng's fear of Zhu Jiajun in his heart had surpassed that of Houjin Jiannu.

When he was young, Geng Zhongming was sweating profusely, and his tone was anxious and panicked: "Lord Li, we only collected more than 4,000 people, and the last general sent Jia Ding to arrest people again." ”

"What's the alarm, we still have thousands of people, and we may never be able to turn defeat into victory." In front of outsiders, Li Jiucheng has also learned to talk serious nonsense, and his military spirit is complete.

Dengzhou under the bell tower is still chaotic, and torches can be seen shaking everywhere in the streets and alleys on the east, west, and south, and the sound of crying and killing is faintly heard.

After thinking about it, Li Jiucheng whispered to his henchmen and son: "Don't use those battalions and rebellious people in the city, you each go and gather your old brothers, and after dawn, stick to the place south of the Huahe River, pull more cannons to the streets, and block those roads." It's really impossible to do anything, run away immediately! ”

In fact, Li Jiucheng still has a plan, which he didn't want to use unless he had to. But now it has to be used!

That is to borrow Sun Yuanhua's hand and recruit himself.

After all, from Sun Yuanhua's point of view, appeasing the nearly 10,000 rebellious soldiers and people in this city can indeed reduce his guilt. Because there is only one day, he can say that the loss of the city is caused by someone in the city, and then he will put it down, which is definitely more of a merit than a sin. Everyone's happy!

In this way, even if Dengzhou suffered heavy losses, because Sun Yuanhua at least did not have the great crime of losing the city and land, with his connections in the court, it was possible to save his life.

I believe that Sun Yuanhua will be willing to cooperate.

As long as Sun Yuanhua admits the fact of appeasement, then all of them rebels will become Ming troops again, and the Zhu family army will have no reason to attack them.

What a brilliant calculation!

So, next.

Li Jiucheng arranged for people to defend and stick to the important place, and at the same time went to see Sun Yuanhua himself.

And Zhu Zilong didn't expect him to do this? How can it be!

You have a plan, and I have a countermeasure. No, after entering the city, the steady Zhu Jiajun began to grab the territory first, and then Zhu Zilong went to the vicinity of the eunuch Lu Zhengfu, who was still persevering.

In the perseverance of Lu Zhengzheng's hard work, he was immediately overjoyed when he saw that the person who came was Zhu Zilong.

Hurriedly squeaked open the door of the mansion and asked Zhu Zilong to bring people in.

Seeing Lu Zheng, Zhu Zilong explained the ins and outs, and said with a look of regret: "Our army captured some rebels in the city, according to their confessions, it was the day before yesterday that the army broke into the city and connected some Liao soldiers as internal responses, broke through the east gate and let the rebels enter the city. Master Sun was captured by the rebels, and after the city of General Zhang's army was broken...... Killed. ”

This Lu Zheng usually likes to fight for power with Sun Yuanhua, but at this time, he sighed, and then scolded loudly: "That...... Before Sun Yuanhua, he strictly ordered all armies along the way not to attack the rebels, and let them drive straight in. Zhang Zongbing tried his best to stop it at that time, but he came to our house afterwards and wanted to ask our family to stop this, but at that time, the rout had already entered the city, and Zhang Tao was Lord Sun's henchman. Our family thinks about the friendship of colleagues, and it is inconvenient to stop it. I didn't want to be separated from heaven and man, hateful, hateful. Sun Yuanhua is really blind! ”

Zhu Zilong pretended to hesitate and said, "Lord Sun is now in the hands of the rebels, which will inevitably make people throw a mouse. Ben Hou was worried that the rebels would kill Lord Sun, and secondly, he was also afraid that Lord Sun would give some orders against his will under the coercion of the rebels, so he still wanted to invite his father-in-law to preside over the overall situation, and he also had a backbone. ”

The meaning of these words is to let Lu Zheng preside over the overall situation, but in fact, it means to let him be a notary. It's all old foxes, they all understand!

After hearing this, Lu Zheng stood up and walked left and right.

When he was young, he replied: "A eunuch in our family was originally only a representative of the Heavenly Prison Army, and the governor's affairs were not in charge. But now is an extraordinary time, so I have to reluctantly pick up the burden first. However, after this matter, it is necessary to report to the court immediately, I wonder if the Marquis of Long is willing to sign a Tang newspaper? ”

Zhu Zilong knew what he meant, and arched his hand: "Certainly, definitely, you can write at this time." ”

Lu Zheng was overjoyed, and the two immediately started to write, discussing the details with each other, and the description must be consistent. Both of them insisted that the rebels had conquered Dengzhou, which led to the erosion of Dengzhou, and the content was all about the impeachment of Sun Yuanhua.

Seeing that the report was sent in a hurry of 800 miles and headed straight for the direction of the capital, Zhu Zilong and Lu Zheng both smiled.

One for wealth, for merit.

And Zhu Zilong knew that the battle of Dengzhou was of great significance to him.

Soon, when the artillery regiments of the Zhu family's army also arrived one after another, it was not far from the time when Zhu Zilong was going to launch a general attack.

And at the same time, on the side of the rebel army.

Li Jiucheng is in prison, and he persuades Sun Yuanhua bitterly, that is, to recruit himself.

Sun Yuanhua was unwilling to go along with the dirt, and hated Li Jiucheng in his heart, and was reluctant to let Li Jiucheng go. But the situation is stronger than people, and he has to bow his head and cooperate.

So after thinking about it, he finally agreed to Li Jiucheng, on the condition that Li Jiucheng immediately stop the burning in the city.

Li Jiucheng now, he just wants to get through the great crisis in front of him, and he agrees.

An hour later, it was dawning.

Dengzhou City entered a kind of quiet, and neither the rebels nor the Zhu family army launched a large-scale attack, which was calm before the storm.

The people of the city took refuge in various hidden places, hoping that the turmoil would pass sooner.

Soon after, Li Jiucheng asked Sun Yuanhua to agree to recruit his own documents and send them to the Zhu Jiajun camp opposite. In this way, he wanted Zhu Jiajun to give up attacking him.

After a few more moments, his men returned from the opposite side.

Li Jiucheng saw that the messenger had returned, and asked impatiently, "What did the people of the Zhu family army say?" Have you seen the Dragon Marquis of the Four Seas? ”

The subordinate wiped his face and replied to Li Jiucheng: "I didn't see it, the villain was led to Zhenhaimen, and the general manager came out to pick up the paperwork, and then sent the villain back." only said that he would ask Lu Jianjun to make a final decision on whether it was in line with the rules of the court. ”

After listening to the answer of his subordinates, Li Jiucheng showed a slight look of disappointment, and Sun Yuanhua was almost the last straw he grabbed at the moment.

Because, the Malay newspaper sounded, reinforcements appeared on many roads, and if they wanted to break through, their own men and horses would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

After all, although there were many rebels in the city, they were all demoralized, and most of them did not want to fight hard, but only wanted to escape with the proceeds of their looting. I really have to put it together, hehe, hehe, hehe.
