The scene of hundreds of thunder chariots firing giant crossbows at the same time was spectacular, and a huge crossbow arrow with thick arms whistled out, densely covering the air into the darkness, and the fluffy pierced into the thick and solid city wall, and the gravel was shot out, sparks were splashed in all directions, and the whole earth shook violently. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Just shot a wave of giant crossbow arrows, and all the officers and men of the Second Chinese Army walked away like a tide, coming suddenly and inexplicably.

Xu Fang and the others, who were lying on the battlements and looking down, looked at the hundreds of giant crossbows inserted in the solid and thick city walls, and their faces were pale and bloodless, and their expressions of fear were clearly written on their faces.

At the beginning of the siege of Dongping, Xu Fang had witnessed the terrifying lethality of the Thunder Chariot, but at that time it was aimed at the dense cavalry and infantry.

Attacking the country of Mianguo in South Korea, he and Li Jin each led an army, and they did not witness the terrible power of the Thunder Chariot attacking the city wall, but when they heard the legend, most of them did not believe that the Thunder Chariot was really so terrifying, and most of them were exaggerated by others.

Now, he finally truly saw the terrifying power of the Thunder Chariot, and he was so frightened that he shuddered.

If the Thunder Chariot bombarded five or six rounds in succession, the southern city wall was only afraid that it would really collapse with a bang, not to mention that it would be held for a year, but it would not be able to hold on for three days.

Look at the soldiers around him, they are all shocked, their courage has been frightened, and their morale is low, even if Feng Yanwu has no head and no brains to attack, it is uncertain whether she can hold out for a week.

Feng Yanwu didn't even surround the city, but camped outside the city in the south, and only needed to perform once a day with a thunder chariot, and the 300,000 defenders of the city were afraid that they would escape in the middle of the night.

It's not a level at all, this battle doesn't have to be fought at all, it's already lost, but if you don't fight, the clansmen are in the imperial city, controlled by the emperor, and they may lose their heads at any time

The letter tied to the shaft of the arrow was presented to Xu Fang.

Xu Fang hurriedly opened it and took a look, with a strange expression on his face.

There are two letters, one is written by the ninth princess, only saying that Huangfu Nashun has died in the hands of Leng Ruyan, and she is the only member of the royal family left, and she is the only one left in the royal family.

The emperor is dead? No wonder rumors have been flying all over the sky recently, combined with the analysis of the situation that Prince Mu and other loyal ministers were refused to see His Majesty and were put in prison by Bai Gangying, it seems that it is not groundless.

Anyway, whether it is true or not, the soldiers' hearts are more or less panicked, their morale is shaken, and the morale of the army is unstable.

Looking at Li Jin's handwritten letter again, his expression on his face was suddenly red and white, and it was obvious that he was unable to make a choice for a while.

Unable to make a choice for a while, he handed the two letters to his cronies to read.

After reading it, the right-hand man who was regarded by him as his left and right arms said in a low voice: "Dashuai, the left and right are dead, why not take a gamble?" ”

The other also said, "Dashuai, my subordinates think that the strategy of the master of the horse can be tried, and if you don't fight, you have no chance at all." ”

"Yes, Dashuai, look at the morale now, it's so low that you can't fight at all......"

Li Jin said in the letter: persuade him to be loyal to the ninth princess, join forces with Feng Shuai, wave the imperial capital, and release cruel words, if Bai Gangying dares to touch his people, he will slaughter all the people of the Qing family and their families.

Bai Gangying's heart is more ruthless than anyone else, and only by being ruthless can she be frightened by being ruthless and threatening to slaughter all the people who clear the door.

However, this old witch has become an unreasonable madman, whether this trick can be forced to submit, Li Jin does not have the slightest confidence, he also explained in the letter, let Xu Fang make up his own mind.

However, he added another sentence: Once the army arrives in the imperial capital, when the city is broken, he cannot guarantee the safety of the Xu family.

For Xu Fanglai, this is also tantamount to a fatal threat.

You worked hard for Bai Gangying to protect your clan, but if I break through the city, your Xu clan will also lose your head, so you can choose for yourself.

Fools can see the current situation in Sanyangguan, the morale of the army is low, resistance, there is only one way to die, it is better to die than to live, even the cronies and officers around him have the intention of surrendering, what choice can Xu Fang have?

The 300,000 defenders all went out of the city and gathered on the flat ground empty-handed, waiting for Feng Shuai and Feng Yanwu to surrender.

Xu Fang and other generals looked like they were at the disposal of the king, and at the critical moment, Feng Yanwu was not polite, and asked Xu Fang to leave 20,000 people to guard Sanyang Pass, and then led an army of 280,000 to enter the imperial capital with her.

Xu Fang and the others were all grateful, and ordered the army to pack up their weapons and equipment, and immediately set off to enter the imperial capital, and he and a few senior generals followed Feng Yanwu with only heralds.

This move is nothing more than a statement to Feng Yanwu - we will voluntarily stay as hostages to clarify our intentions.

Feng Yanwu couldn't understand, but in order to be sure, she could only pretend to be deaf and dumb. The worries in her heart were completely dispelled, and she ordered the army to move forward, and the army of more than 400,000 troops marched into the imperial capital.

Imperial Palace, Taihe Palace.

A few panicked armor soldiers dragged a few corpses and hurriedly left, the dead were all the captains and officers who were responsible for leading the team to hunt down the Nine Princesses, because they returned empty-handed, Bai Gangying slapped one by one in a rage, and killed them with heavy hands.

It's no wonder that Bai Gangying was furious, the Ninth Princess was now the only trump card she could rely on, but the group of rice buckets had made the Ninth Princess slip away so swaggeringly, which had made her half angry.

What's even more annoying is that now rumors are flying all over the sky, and the news of the death of Emperor Fu Nashun is spread everywhere, making people panic.

At this time, Li Jin raised the banner of maintaining orthodoxy again, and the army was dispatched to approach the imperial capital.

Xu Fang, the commander who guarded Sanyang Pass, surrendered Feng Yanwu without fighting, and waved his army back to the imperial city, threatening her with cruel words.

"Xu Fang!"

Bai Gangying, who was extremely furious, smashed the round table next to him with one palm, and several officers who were shrunk aside couldn't help but shudder.

"Come on, take down the entire Xu clan for me!"

An officer bowed down to receive the order and strode out of the palace.

"You guys!"

Bai Gangying, who was so annoyed that his cheek muscles were twisted, pointed to a few officers who were shrunk to the side and shouted: "Continue to search for the Ninth Princess, and if you can't find anyone, you will come back with your own head!" ”

She firmly believed that although Li Jin's secret spies helped, it was impossible for the Ninth Princess, Zhaomu County Lord, and Shen Yi to escape from her control of power, and they must be hidden somewhere.

Digging three feet into the ground, she also had to catch the Ninth Princess before Feng Yanwu and Xu Fang's army surrounded the Imperial City, and coerced the Nine Princesses to order everyone to force Li Jin to submit.

Sometimes, people who are so angry that they lose their minds and are ambitious, no matter how smart they are, often end up in a dead end.

What's more, although she is keen on political power, she does not really understand politics, and thinks that simple things are very complicated, but she thinks about important and complex things too simply.

Bai Gangying took a few deep breaths, trying her best to restore her previous calm, she had a lot of things to deal with, but it was a top priority, how to deal with Feng Yanwu's Second Army and Xu Fang's 300,000 army?

At most, two days after tomorrow, the army will force the imperial city, as long as the imperial city is besieged, she will be completely at a disadvantage, when the time comes, the ninth princess appears, ascending to the heights, the situation is very bad.

If she really failed, she could lead her disciples to leave the imperial city from the secret path, but she suddenly fell from the peak to the ground, she was really unwilling, until the last moment, she did not give up easily.

She gave a series of orders, and her disciples rushed out of the palace to convey her orders.

There are 100,000 elite divisions in the imperial city, with sufficient weapons and equipment, food and grass, and there should be no problem in holding on for a year and a half.

She firmly believes that she can still reverse the unfavorable situation, as long as she kills Li Jin, Feng Yanwu, and holds the Nine Princesses, the final victory is still her.

Several officers who had been ordered to search for the Ninth Princess hurried out of the palace, all of them looking panicked and uneasy, without the slightest joy of elevation.

One of them asked in a low voice, "Brother, what should I do?" ”

If they can't catch Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess, they still have to lose their heads when they come back, their top boss is a living role model, and they all shudder when they think of the tragic death of their top boss.

The official is promoted, but the head is about to fall off, who is not afraid?

A few buddies, you look at me, I look at you, no one squeaks, but the panicked, gloomy expression is clearly written on the face.

yes, what to do?

They led their respective teams and walked slowly towards the city gate, and from time to time a group of city guards hurriedly ran forward.

At most, two days after the Ming Dynasty, the army led by Feng Shuai Feng Yanwu of the Megatron Continent, as well as the army of Xu Fang's Marshal who turned against each other, forced to the city, and the whole city had entered a state of combat readiness.

Several officers with gloomy faces marched to the east city gate with their respective teams, and a captain officer who was in charge of guarding the city gate stepped forward with a smile, "Brother Li, where is my brother?" Why didn't you see him come back? ”

Brother Li and several other officers had strange expressions on their faces, squeaking and not knowing how to answer.

A straight-talking officer sighed and said with a wry smile: "Lord Lin, Lord He...... He's dead......"

"What?"

Lord Lin grabbed him in the chest, "What did you say?" ”

Someone whispered what happened, and Lord Lin yelled angrily, "Old ......"

Several henchmen beside him hurriedly covered his mouth, "Your Excellency, stop your anger!" ”

The old witch really wants to scold her, everyone has to lose their heads, and a few henchmen are only presumptuous.

Lord Lin was so anxious that he lost his mind and wanted to draw his sword and enter the palace, but he desperately hugged his henchmen and struggled to twist into a ball.

"Report!"

A scout sweating profusely and with a panicked face hurried over, "Your Excellency, the enemy army is pressing the border, and it is only twenty miles away from the imperial city.

Lord Lin and everyone else were shocked.

"Adults, small ones will go into the city to investigate."

The scout wiped the sweat from his face and was about to urge his mount when the reins were suddenly grabbed by a large hand.
