The letter said that Hu had formed an alliance with the Ming State and would lead a million troops to occupy the imperial capital in the near future, which was very accurate, and the imperial capital was about to fall into war.

Jia Hui said that the imperial capital is now ready for first-level combat.

"Your Majesty, please see."

Wang Xu waved his hand: "Just say it, what is it said on the fold?" ”

Han Shushu briefly said it.

Wang Xu was taken aback, and really let Han Shushu say, Cai Wenzhuo really dared to break the covenant.

"Where did they get so many soldiers?"

Han Shushu said: "Your Majesty, there is this possibility, there are 500,000 troops on the battlefield of Wu County alone, and Hu Ling has mobilized hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses from Qingyuan County and Nandu to march west, as well as soldiers from Bao'an County, all the armies combined, a full million!" ”

Wang Xu: "......." ”

Han Shushu said: "Your Majesty, the emperor is our base camp, we can't tolerate the slightest sloppiness, once it falls, the consequences are unimaginable, Weichen suggests, return to the army immediately, and stabilize the rear." ”

Wang Xu looked at the man in black: "You go back to the imperial capital now and tell Jia Hui that I will immediately let Sun Yu lead 200,000 troops back to the army, and let them hold on for a while, just wait for Sun Yu's soldiers and horses to arrive, and gather and annihilate the enemy army together." ”

"No."

The man in black stepped back.

Wang Xu took a deep breath: "Mr. Calligraphy and Painting, do you think I should reinforce the imperial capital?" ”

Han Shushu was stunned: "Reinforcements, didn't Your Majesty say just now, let Sun Yu lead 200,000 light cavalry reinforcements to the imperial capital, Weichen thinks this arrangement is very reasonable." ”

Wang Xu smiled: "Do you think that now that there are 200,000 back troops, can you defeat the combined forces of Hu and Ming?" ”

That's a million!

Han Shushu was also silent for a while, he really didn't have this certainty, even if Sun Yu had 200,000 elite light cavalry in his hands, but the enemy was too strong, and he might not be able to break the siege if he went.

But after thinking about it, Han Shushu said again: "Your Majesty, even if you are not defeated, you must rescue, if you don't rescue." The imperial capital is gone! ”

The imperial capital is not Hexi, if Hexi is gone, it can be fought back, but if the emperor is gone. If you want to fight back, it will be difficult, without a million soldiers and horses, you are not even qualified to attack the city.

For example, Hu State, if Hu State really captures the imperial capital. Then Hu Ling must have a large number of garrisons, maybe he will leave 500,000 troops in the imperial capital, who can attack it then?

"Since you are invincible, how can you save it? No matter how many soldiers and horses you go, isn't it also a death? ”

Can even the imperial capital give up?

Han Shushu was a little unable to turn a corner for a while, and I didn't know what Wang Xu meant.

Wang Xu suddenly laughed: "Calligraphy and painting, you are really smart and confused for a while, think about it carefully, in addition to rescuing the imperial capital, what other way can you save the imperial capital?" ”

Hear the words. Han Shushu was stunned, he was also panicked, and he really didn't think about it.

After calming down his mood, Han Shushu thought about it carefully, and suddenly, Han Shushu exclaimed: "Your Majesty means... Divide your troops to attack, attack the southern and northern counties, and force Hu Ling and Cai Wenzhuo to retreat? ”

Worthy of being a top strategist, Wang Xu smiled and nodded.

That's what he really meant, just now after Han Shushu said it. He thought of four words: 'Siege Wei to save Zhao!' ’

This is also the only way to save the imperial capital!

As long as Nanjun Wangcheng is in crisis, Gao Quan must return to the army, otherwise Nandu will be broken, and even Hu Ling will be gone. Moreover, Hu Ling will definitely give Gao Quan a holy decree, whether Gao Quan wants to or not, he will definitely withdraw from the army.

There is also Beijun, there are not many soldiers and horses in the Ming Kingdom, and there are only less than 100,000 in the Northern Capital. Of course, this is the remaining soldiers and horses after the imperial capital was dispatched, and there must have been more than this number before.

The northern capital is besieged, Cai Wenzhuo must have hurriedly withdrawn his troops, that is the old nest of the Ming Kingdom, and there is no room for loss, just like the current imperial capital of Wang Xu, which has lost its strength and dropped greatly.

Wang Xu nodded and said with a smile: "Then you can help me think about it, how to send troops next?" ”

With a general direction, Han Shushu completely opened his mind and began to think about it.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan."

Suddenly, Han Shushu said excitedly.

..............

In the next two days, Wang Xu's army did not attack the city, but there was a little movement, and two large armies rushed to the south and north respectively, with cavalry and infantry, beating gongs and drums, and the momentum was huge.

On the third day.

On the west wall of the royal city, Li Zhong led all the generals to stand here, looking at the black oppression in the distance under the city, everyone was confused.

"General, can we hold it?"

An adjutant general said with his mouth wide open.

Li Zhong took a deep breath: "Give me the order, strictly guard against it, and do whatever it takes!" You must keep it for me! ”

"This royal city can't be lost!"

Li Yun also came, and he said: "General Li is right, if the royal city is lost, we will all have to die, so you all have to fight for me!" ”

"No."

The generals shouted in unison, but from their voices, it was obvious that there was no confidence!

Li Zhong didn't bother to do pre-war mobilization, and waved his hand: "Okay, let's take their places." ”

"No." The generals left.

Under the city, Wang Xu sat in the Chinese army, and Han Shuhua, Fukangan, Sun Yu and other generals will accompany him.

"Your Majesty, can you start the siege?"

Wang Xu nodded: "Let's start, order the artillery battalion, assist Zheng Feng's siege troops, and launch a full-scale attack on the enemy!" ”

"No."

Sun Yu responded, he turned around and gave two orders to a herald, and then ran away without the herald, giving the order forward.

After a while, the order was given.

In front of the military formation, fifty red-clothed cannons were pushed out by the soldiers, and at the same time, the siege soldiers under Zheng Feng were also ready to zhandou, and the three siege phalanxes slowly moved forward, with a total of 15,000 people, that is to say, each phalanx had 5,000 people.

"Look, general, what is the enemy pushing out?"

Suddenly, an adjutant general stood behind Li Zhong and asked.

Li Zhong stood and looked at it with a frown, then shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Although the battle of Xipingguan was concerned by the world, Qingyuan County did not know about it, and Gao Quan knew it clearly, but he did not transmit the painting of that thing here.

Therefore, ordinary generals don't know what the red-coated cannon looks like, they only know that it is a very important thing, which can attack the enemy from a distance.

"The gunner is in position."

"Reload the shell!"

"Launch!"

.....

Boom Boom Boom !!

With countless loud noises, all the red-clothed cannons shook at the same time, and at the same time, on the city wall in the distance, the violent shaking shook the heavens and the earth, and the sound was huge, as if the end had come.

Boom Boom Boom !!

On the city, all the soldiers began to hug their heads and run around, and they were stunned all of a sudden, not knowing what was happening, only feeling that the ground of the city wall was shaking violently, and black smoke appeared on the wall. (To be continued.) )
