The light rain did not stop, and the weather became more gloomy, as if the rain could increase at any moment.

According to what Su Wuming said, Cheshire sent someone to inquire about the identity of the deceased, and the white bones were carried to the house by several subordinates and put away, and Su Wuming said goodbye to Cheshire, and then left Cheshire's mansion.

The streets of Chang'an City are a little lonely, only occasionally a few people with umbrellas walk by, and in the mist and rain, every qiē seems to be in the painting.

Outside the city, the rebel camp.

King Xin thought that they would be able to break through Chang'an City in one fell swoop, but after a battle, they found that things were not as simple as they imagined, and this heavy rain made their morale extremely low.

Last night's rain was so heavy that their tent couldn't withstand that much rain at all, so in the end, the whole tent was covered with rain, and everyone couldn't sleep well.

And the grain and grass of tens of thousands of people has now become a problem, because they originally wanted to fight quickly, so they did not bring a large amount of grain and grass, and the follow-up grain and grass have not moved so far, which makes King Xin angry.

In the tent of King Xin, several generals knelt on the ground, their upper bodies trembling slightly, as if they were extremely scared.

"Why hasn't there been any movement in the follow-up grain and grass?"

Several officers and soldiers glanced at each other, and then one of them arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, I'm just afraid...... I am afraid that we will have no successor to our grain and grass. ”

"What's going on?" Although King Xin was angry at this time, he was a rebel after all, and his mind was still extremely meticulous.

"The grain and grass that we asked Chai Qike to withhold before have now been snatched back by the people at the border gates...... At this point, the officers and soldiers did not dare to continue talking, and King Xin suddenly stood up from his chair and kicked the man who had just spoken to the ground.

"Since there is no more grain and grass, then ask the people around you, if they don't give it, they will kill it, and they will rob it!"

A general was slightly stunned, then knelt down in a fearless spirit and said: "Lord Wang, they are all the people of the Tang Dynasty, he will seize the great cause one day, and you will rely on them to restore production, and now if you lose the support of the people because of this, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid that the great cause will not be successful! ”

After the general said this, King Xin frowned slightly, and the other generals sweated for this person, at this time, he still dared to contradict the prince, it seems that he really doesn't want to live.

King Xin was angry in his heart, but he had not lost his mind, he naturally understood the meaning of this person's words, although he wanted to rebel, but after all, he was a descendant of the Li family, Taizong Zeng said, Jun, Zhouye; people, water also; Water can carry boats and capsize boats, and if they lose the support of the people because of the matter of food and grass, they are afraid that their army will be attacked on both sides.

But if there is no food and grass, and the morale of the army is unstable, this rebellion will not be able to continue.

King Xin pondered for a moment, looked at the person who spoke just now, and asked, "What's your name?" ”

"Back to the prince's words, the last general Moyun."

King Xin nodded: "It's better for you to be smart, so you come to tell the king, if you don't rob the food of the common people, what will we tens of thousands of people eat, and how can we attack Chang'an City?" ”

Mo Yun said: "Back to the prince, our current grain and grass can last for five days, if we can attack Chang'an City within five days, we don't need to rob those people of grain and grass." ”

"Oh, how can you storm Chang'an City in five days?"

"Lord Wang, this heavy rain may be able to help us."

"This heavy rain?" King Xin was stunned for a moment, he felt that this heavy rain had caused their troops to suffer a lot, and if it weren't for this heavy rain, they would have been much easier, and now because of this heavy rain, the morale of the soldiers has dropped a lot.

"Back to the prince's words, we can take advantage of this heavy rain, the officers and soldiers defending the city think that the heavy rain is coming, we will definitely not attack the city at this time, they must be negligent in taking precautions, and we are attacking the city at this time, and when the heavy rain pours, the archers on the city tower are obstructed, although we can't use the cloud ladder, but it is extremely advantageous to hit the city gate, if it is ......" Speaking of this, Mo Yun lowered his voice and said: "If the prince has an internal response in the city, we may be able to get twice the result with half the effort." ”

After listening to this, King Xin praised it and said, "Okay, good, you quickly go and sort out the army, let the soldiers have enough to eat, tonight, we will attack Chang'an City in a big way." ”

Before nightfall, the entire Chang'an City was silent, perhaps because of the heavy rain, or because it was too dangerous outside the city, and everyone had no heart to frolic.

The heavy rain was heavier, the wind was like a storm, and King Xin stood outside the city wall, letting the heavy rain hit, and at this time his heart was full of pride, and he had the meaning of pointing out the country.

A general rushed over and said, "Lord Wang, the generals have been assembled, do you want to attack the city immediately?" ”

King Xin looked up at the sky, the sky was dark, the clouds were extremely low, and the fallen leaves not far away were flying in the air, King Xin waved his hand slightly: "It's not the time yet, and wait, but now we can walk five miles further." ”

The night is getting deeper, the heavy rain has not stopped, the whole Chang'an City is shrouded in smoke and rain, it seems so unreal, and at this time, a team suddenly appeared on the streets of Chang'an City, this team is about a hundred people, they walk quickly, and the direction is the city gate.

These people were running quickly, but at this time, countless sharp arrows suddenly shot out from all around, although the heavy rain blocked the view, but there were too many sharp arrows, and the more than 100 people could not hide, and they were quickly wiped out.

More than a hundred corpses were lined up in the center of the street, and at this time, a man walked out of the rain, and a young man in palace clothes held an umbrella for the man, and a light smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, and then he ordered: "Send a letter to the king of letters outside the city, saying that you can attack." ”

A young man on the side bowed slightly, and then ran towards the city gate.

At night, a ray of fireworks blooms in the night sky, but it quickly disappears.

After the king of letters outside the city saw the signal, his spirit was suddenly shocked, and he said: "Come on, kill!" ”

The rebels, who had long been ready to attack, immediately attacked the city gate, and the wooden stake that hit the city gate looked like a flying snake in the night, which was so terrifying.

King Xin's army attacked, the forbidden army in the city immediately became vigilant, only to listen to an order, all kinds of sharp arrows shot like raindrops, the screams under the city were endless, but the rebels under the city had no intention of retreating, and the fighting entered a white-hot state for a while.

King Xin stood in the wind and rain, his brows condensed slightly, he obviously saw the signal just now, it stands to reason that the people in the city will only send a signal after success, but why has the city gate been unable to attack for a long time now?

King Shin's heart was faintly uneasy, and he felt that he might have been deceived.

The rebels suffered heavy casualties, and a general stumbled to him, and after kneeling down to King Xin, he reported: "Lord, the enemy army in the city is too stubborn, and it may not be easy to break open the city gate!" ”

King Shin was very angry and said, "This is a golden opportunity, and the gates must be slammed open." ”

"Lord Wang, can I change to other city gates?"

"In this situation, how to change the city gate, this is what I discussed with the people in the city, hurry up and attack!"

"Yes!"

The rebels are attacking again, in the city of Chang'an, a man seems quite leisurely, he saw that the forbidden army in the city has been guarding for an hour, so he waved his hand to a guard, and after the guard understood, he immediately ran to the city gate.

"Lord Wang, the city gate will not be broken for a long time, if we continue like this, I am afraid that we will be wiped out."

King Xin frowned slightly, and was a little embarrassed for a while, and after repeating this, King Xin immediately ordered: "Mingjin retreats!" ”

"Yes!" A general was about to beat the drum, but at this moment, another soldier hurriedly came to report: "Lord, the city gate has been smashed open by us, and the city gate has been knocked open by us......"

For a while, King Xin was extremely excited, and shouted again and again: "Suspend Mingjin to collect troops, beat drums, attack, and rush!" ”

Victory is not easy to come by, and if Ming Jin withdraws his troops at this time, it will be a little too unworthy.

The sound of fighting echoed in the night, few of the people of Chang'an City could fall asleep, and the soldiers and horses of King Xin fought hard to enter the city, but now they have less than 20,000 people left.

However, this has nothing to do with King Xin, as long as he can enter Chang'an City, the entire Chang'an will definitely be like the Anshi Rebellion back then, forcing the emperor to abscond in a hurry.

After the army rushed into Chang'an City, it was about to march towards the palace, but at this time, the city gate was suddenly closed, and then bursts of sharp arrows suddenly attacked from all directions, and the screams resounded throughout Chang'an City for a while.

The night rain did not stop, and in the palace, Li Yan walked back and forth, and from time to time there were guards with news.

"Report, General Ma has already shot all the spies sent by Lord Cao!"

"Report, the enemy army has attacked the city!"

"Report, the enemy has suffered heavy casualties."

"Report, the enemy has entered General Ma's trap!"

When he heard the final news, Li Yan finally made up his mind, that was the countermeasure that he and Ma Yuanzhen had already discussed, first get rid of Cao Man, and then induce the enemy army to attack the city, and when the enemy army was almost wiped out, he would make another move to close the door and beat the dog, and wipe out the enemy.

As things stand, their plan has succeeded.

The rain was like crazy, Su Wuming stood in front of the window, he couldn't hear the sound of fighting at the city gate, but he was sure that Chang'an City would not be peaceful tonight, and he didn't know how many innocent soldiers would die in this war for fame and fortune tonight.

The wind-blown window crackled, Wen Wan'er put a shirt on Su Wuming, and said, "Xianggong, the wind and rain are more urgent, let's rest early." ”

Tonight's Wen Wan'er is very beautiful, more beautiful than ever, Su Wuming couldn't help but take her into his arms, perhaps, only after experiencing the war and seeing human life as cheap as mustard, will he really understand how hard-won and precious it is to be able to live well with the person he loves.
