Zhu Youcheng told a few more things, and then got up to leave. Walking to the door, he suddenly turned around and said in a low voice: "It's not difficult to defend the city, I estimate that the rebels will immediately pursue the main force of the Jinyi Guard when they find out, and the siege of Longli City will be immediately resolved." But if I am wrong in my estimation, the rebels are attacking Longli City with all their might, I approve that you can surrender to the rebels and save your own lives, this surrender is ordered by me, not your betrayal of Jinyiwei. ”

The Yiren youths were quiet for a while, and suddenly they all looked angry, feeling sad that Zhu Youcheng didn't believe them. Some of them drew their swords to cut off their wills; Some raised their hands and swore to heaven; Some knelt on the ground and showed the gods their determination to die. And the four heroes were even more excited, and even the native language of the Yiren came out.

Zhu Youcheng didn't expect that as soon as the words of letting them save their lives came out, it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and he hurriedly ordered the knife to stop-the fingers were not leeks, cut stubble after stubble, and then gently pacified those excited Yiren youths-

It took An Bangyan a long time to find a few pieces of tattered white cloth and make a white flag.

He ordered several guards to escort the boy out of the tent. Just then, they heard the rumbling of cannon outside.

"What's going on? Is it ▲ Didn't some of our people strayed into a range of 350 steps from the city wall, and the Jinyi guards fired artillery to bomb people? An Bangyan asked suspiciously.

"A master, the coach of Jinyiwei is really a master. He guessed that our next step was to bet King Shin to the battlefield, so he bombed the battlefield indiscriminately in advance, so as to coerce us so that we could not bet King Shin to the battlefield, because he would die on the battlefield, and we would lose the hostages who threatened Jinyiwei; Second, take advantage of the smoke and dust raised by the bombing. Blocking the soldier's view so that the soldier cannot find out that King Shin has been captured by us; Third, use the explosion to suppress our voices, and if we shout anything, Longli City will not be able to hear it. ”

If Zhu Youcheng was at the scene, he would definitely say: "You think too much, I just want to use the smoke and dust raised by the cannonballs to block your line of sight so that we can break through." ”

After each Tiger Squat Cannon released twenty flowering shells. The artillerymen carried the tiger cannon down the city wall. The barrel of the cannon that had just been fired was very hot, and although the barrel was cleaned with mop water to cool down, the temperature of the barrel was still very high. So the artillerymen howled wolf while carrying the barrels of the guns and galloping quickly to the carriage. There was no need to carry the shells, because in the process of firing the cannons, the excess ammunition had already been moved into the carriage by the Jinyi guards.

Zhu Youcheng led his troops to assemble at the south gate, and with an order, the city gate was wide open, and the cavalry rushed out. The rejection horse in front of the south gate had already been blown to pieces by the Jinyi guard with artillery. The spear array was also smashed to pieces. It's safest to break out here.

An Bangyan placed probe horses and liaison soldiers on all sides of Longli City, and the news that the Jinyi Guard cavalry opened the south gate and left the city quickly reached An Bangyan's ears.

An Bangyan and Surtai discussed for a while, and instead of sending people to the south gate to intercept them, they concentrated their forces at the north gate. They think that King Xin is in their hands, and Zhu Youcheng and King Xin have a deep brotherhood, and Jin Yiwei will definitely risk his life to rescue King Xin. And King Xin is at the north gate, and the main direction of Jinyiwei's attack must also be at the north gate. Their cavalry must have struck from the south gate. Wait for the rebels to move their troops to the south gate. Jinyiwei opened the north gate and rushed out to rescue King Xin. Ahn Bangyan and Surtai sat in the tent. Wait for Zhu Youcheng to take the bait.

The two of them waited for Zhu Youcheng to come on the left and Zhu Youcheng on the right, and the more they waited, the more anxious they became. The two of them decided not to pretend to be superior anymore, and went out to see when Zhu Youcheng would come.

At this time, it was already half an hour after the shelling, and the smoke and dust in the sky had dissipated, revealing the fortified Longli City behind it. Longli City was actually full of people. It's very different from the scene of the sparse crowd on the city wall just now.

An Bangyan's face was full of surprise: "What? Could Zhu Youcheng be magical, after firing a few shots, he would conjure so many people. ”

Surtai was also a little puzzled: "Yes, where did he conjure so many people?" Moreover, transfer men to the city walls. You don't need to set off a cannon, you can just let people go up to the city tower, and you don't need to deliberately fire a cannon to notify us. Also, where did the cavalry that went out of the south gate go? ”

An Bangyan stomped his feet and said hatefully: "No matter how much, directly escort King Xin to the front and order them to open the city and surrender." ”

The three guards trembled and escorted the fake letter king to a place fifty steps outside Longli City, and this time it was very fortunate that the Jinyi guard did not fire a cannon.

"Open the door and surrender! The king of faith is in our hands, and if you do not open the door, we will not guarantee the safety of the king. The three guards shouted in unison.

There was no sound on the city wall, and the guards were furious, and if they would not surrender, you would give a word. What do you mean by being so silent, let's play a one-man show?

One of the guards drew his sword and slashed the king of false faith in the back. The boy wailed in pain and tried to reach out to cover his wounds, but his hands were tied and he couldn't move.

There was still no movement on the walls.

"Isn't it true that the walls are full of dead people?" One of the guards said to himself, he approached the city wall, and threw the knife in his hand at the figure on the wall, trying to pierce the figure's chest.

A strong hand catches the knife and throws it back with all its might. The guard didn't react at once, didn't catch the knife, and the knife plunged into his chest. The manpower on the city wall was very strong, and the knife actually pierced the guards under the city wall.

In fact, the guards did not guess wrong, the city is not full of living people. More than half of the guards in the city were scarecrows that had been placed on the city walls.

The remaining two guards were furious when they saw that their companion was dead, but they could not catch the defenders on the wall, so they had to vent their false letter to the king in their hands. The two guards had been guarding the tent all the time, and from beginning to end they saw how the boy pretended to believe in the king, and knew that the boy's identity was just an ordinary baby. But the two of them were carried away by the anger, and they remembered their mission, so they only tortured the boy by cruel means.

The boy kept screaming and wailing, and the sound he made was sore, but the people on the city wall still didn't react.

The torture did not dispel the guard's anger, and one of the guards picked up his knife and slashed at the boy's neck.

With a "click", the poor young man's head was cut off by the guards, and the blood on his neck rose to the sky, spraying the two guards on their heads and faces.

But there was still no sound on the walls.

"Oh no, Jinyiwei has already broken through, and it is not Jinyiwei who remains on the city wall, so he is indifferent to the life and death of King Xin. Maybe the guards guarding the city were the Yi captives he captured. Surtai shouted.

An Bangyan called the scout horses guarding the south gate and asked for details about the cavalry leaving the city. When he heard that there were many horsemen out of the city, and that there were a large number of carriages in the middle, he suddenly fell into his chair - no raider would take a carriage to attack the enemy.

It's over, Jinyiwei has broken out of the encirclement and killed Guiyang. (To be continued......)
