The city wall of Yanjing City is extremely wide and thick, and on the top of the city, you can even ride a horse and gallop, and between the big bluestone blocks of the city wall, when the city wall is built, a gap space is built, which can be stored in wartime, and even in the thick city wall, there is a hollow emergency military conference room used to hold an emergency meeting to defend the city.

In the city wall on the side of Xiping Gate, there is such a conference room.

The area is not large, it is just a space that can accommodate more than ten people, and at this time, Su Yuting was sitting quietly in this temporary meeting, looking tired, and his brows were wrinkled together.

There were still four or five generals of the Imperial Forest Army, and it was obvious that the pressure of the past few days had also exhausted everyone, and several generals were sitting on chairs, sleeping, and one of them even snored.

Su Yuting just quietly looked at the oil lamp lit on the table, the lights flickered, and the night shadow was ghostly.

The stone door opened, Tang Mingwu came in from outside the door, took off the helmet and put it on the table, and even untied the saber and put it on the table, pulled a chair and sat down, looked at Su Yuting and said, "I have checked it all, there is no problem." The Northwest Army should not attack the ...... in the past two days! ”

Su Yuting didn't speak, his face was expressionless, but the look in his eyes was obviously thinking about something.

"Are we going to just wait?" Tang Mingwu glanced at Su Yuting, and the look on his face was not good: "Commander Su, sit back and wait for death like this, do you really have to wait for the follow-up troops in the northwest to catch up?" ”

Han Mo led the Northwest Army to the city a few days ago, and at that time, Tang Mingwu had already realized that something was wrong, and he was almost desperate, but Su Guanya revealed that he sent the family army to attack, which made Tang Mingwu rekindle hope.

However, instead of succeeding in the sneak attack, the family army was annihilated by Han Mo, Tang Mingwu's heart fell to the bottom at that moment, and in the past two days, he was in a low mood and under great pressure.

Tang Mingwu's voice was heavy, and the generals in the conference room woke up for a while, and the expressions of the generals were extremely gloomy.

Su Yuting said lightly: "What is General Tang's method?" ”

Tang Mingwu frowned and said, "What can I do." But...... We can't just do nothing and just watch the Northwest Army come over. With the strength we have at hand, we won't be able to hold out for long! ”

When several generals heard this, they all nodded slightly.

"We control the hundred officials in the capital in our hands, does he Han Mo really dare to attack the city?" One of Su Yuting's subordinate guards frowned and said, "Han Mo's family is also in our hands, he won't ignore it, right?" ”

Tang Mingwu sneered: "Han Mo let go of the words when he was in the city, and if he wants to compromise, I think it is impossible." ”

After a period of silence, one of the generals of the volcano battalion finally said cautiously: "Otherwise...... Let's go to the palace and ......! ”

Su Yuting's face tightened, and he said lightly: "Enter the palace? Do what? ”

"Now, I can only go to meet the saint." The general said cautiously: "Han Mo rebels, as long as the Holy Lord gives the will, not only the Long Xiang Battalion and the Wolf Armor Battalion will help us, but the Northwest Army will probably retreat without a fight!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him with an idiotic gaze.

Tang Mingwu pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Commander Su, it's not a way to go on like this, in my opinion, it's better to negotiate peace with Han Mo!" ”

"Peace?" Su Yuting's eyes flashed with coldness.

Tang Mingwu sighed: "We are also acting on the orders of His Royal Highness...... ”

When Su Yuting heard this, he instantly saw Tang Mingwu's thoughts, and sneered: "General Tang, are you going to put all the blame on His Highness?" ”

"What does it mean to put the blame on His Highness?" Tang Mingwu's expression was not good, facing Su Yuting, he was not afraid, and sneered: "Could it be that we are not ordered by His Highness?" Now that the situation is critical, in order to prevent our Dayan soldiers from killing each other, we must come up with countermeasures. You Commander Su has no way, and I, Tang Mingwu, can only come up with a peace! ”

Su Yuting's expression was grim, he clenched his fists, and said coldly: "General Tang, do you think Han Mo will agree to negotiate peace with you?" ”

Tang Mingwu frowned and said, "This ...... Always give it a try! ”

"You're thinking too simply." Su Yuting said calmly: "Even if Han Mo agrees to negotiate peace with you, after this matter, do you think the cabinet will let you go?" ”

The commander of the guard army under Su Yuting had already coldly reprimanded: "Tang Mingwu, do you want to escape from the battle?" Now that the situation is grim, you want to put the blame on His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is really a shameless villain! ”

Tang Mingwu's expression suddenly turned cold, grabbed the saber on the table, stood up, and said coldly: "You are bold, when will it be your turn to teach Lao Tzu a lesson." ”

The commander of the guard also held the hilt of the knife and said angrily: "Lao Tzu's official position is not lower than yours, so what can you do when I talk to you like this?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince trusts you and entrusts you with important tasks, but now in times of crisis, you want to put the blame on the prince and discredit the prince's name, not a shameless villain, what is it? If it is the prince who leads the troops back, the first one to go up and ask for merit and reward is afraid that you will be a villain. ”

Tang Mingwu sneered: "Lao Tzu, this is also for the sake of his brothers. At this point, there are no reinforcements, and the army is alone, can it be Han Mo's opponent? ”

The conference room was filled with murderous aura for a while, and it was extremely cold.

Su Yuting sat on the chair calmly, just looked at Tang Mingwu indifferently, and said slowly: "General Tang, everyone has their own ambitions, if you want to negotiate peace with Han Mo, I will not stop you." But if you put the blame on the crown prince's head and ruin the prince's reputation, then don't blame Su Yuting for being unkind. Su Yuting is confident that it will be easy to take your life! ”

Tang Mingwu's face was ugly, but he also knew that with his own ability, he was definitely not Su Yuting's opponent, so he snorted coldly and sat down.

At this moment, I heard a voice outside: "My lord, there is movement outside the city!" ”

All the generals quickly got up for a while, pressing their hands on the hilt of the knife, Su Yuting bore the brunt, and the group went to the city.

The cold wind is howling, the vast land is extremely bleak, Su Yuting stands at the head of the city, looking into the distance, only to see in the distance, but there is a faint fire flickering, the distance is very far, and it is not clear for a while.

Tang Mingwu's face was ugly, and he said, "Could it be that Han Mo wants to attack the city?" Impossible, he only has cavalry in his hands, how to attack the city, isn't that self-defeating? ”

On the city walls, the archers were ready, and the arrangement was prepared on the arrow towers.

A general beside him said strangely: "No~ just *come, it will be the Northwest Army reinforcements arriving, right?" ”

"No way!" Tang Mingwu shook his head and said: "It's not so fast, this kind of weather is flying in the sky, and it can't be arrived so quickly." ”

At this moment, a group of shadows appeared faintly not far away, and then the neighing of horses was heard, and in the darkness, a group of cavalry approached the city.

Tang Mingwu immediately pulled out his knife and shouted, "Shoot them, shoot arrows!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "whooshing" sound, and a round of arrows was fired, and then he saw the group of cavalry retreat quickly, and in a moment disappeared into the darkness.

The generals at the head of the city looked at each other, and they all frowned.

Su Yuting was still that calm look, his expression was indifferent, and he was holding the snow-colored silver spear tightly in his hand, as quiet as a virgin.

"Will they fight or not?" One of the generals couldn't help but say, "What do they want to do?" ”

……

The Nine Gate Camp has always been the place where the Nine Gate soldiers were stationed, and it is located near the city wall in the southwest corner of Yanjing.

At this time, nearly 1,500 soldiers from the Nine Gates were trapped in the large camp, and all of them were disarmed, and the 200 Imperial Forest Army guards were transferred from the Fengxiang Battalion.

Until now, many of the soldiers of the Nine Gates are covered by clouds and mountains, and they really can't understand why they want to be disarmed, let alone why they should be ordered to stay in the camp and not move rashly.

In the past few days, the Jiumen camp has been very quiet, and the soldiers are in the camp separately, and there is no shortage of food every day.

The guards of the Imperial Forest Army were divided into two shifts, one shift of 100 people, mainly to guard the gates of the camp, and occasionally send people to patrol the camp, not allowing any changes in the camp.

The Nine Gates Camp was very quiet, especially on such a cold night.

It was only in this silence that a group of patrolling Imperial Forest soldiers suddenly heard a very chaotic commotion from the depths of the camp, and this group of more than ten Imperial Forest Soldiers, under the leadership of the captain, immediately led the team to quickly pass in the direction of the sound in the middle.

I saw from afar that near a battalion commander, hundreds of soldiers of the Nine Gates had gathered, and there seemed to be friction between the two sides, and more than a dozen people could be seen scuffling in the middle.

The Imperial Forest Captain frowned, drew his saber, and quickly stepped forward with his soldiers, shouting in a deep voice: "In the middle of the night, you are not resting, what are you doing here?" ”

The dozen or so soldiers of the Nine Gates who were scuffling together were deaf to the ears and were still wrestling on the snow.

Annoyed, the captain of the Imperial Forest stepped forward, picked up one of the soldiers, kicked the other away, raised his sword and shouted, "Don't stop yet." Then he turned back and commanded, "Pull them away!" ”

The guards behind him immediately drew their swords and stepped forward, shouting, "Don't fight, separate ......!" ”

For a while, the scene was quite chaotic.

The soldier was stopping the brawl soldier, and suddenly heard a scream, and then saw a soldier of the Nine Gates covering his throat with one hand, blood spilling from his fingers, the soldier staggered back two steps, pointed at a soldier of the Royal Forest with one hand, his pupils dilated, and then he fell to the ground, convulsed a few times, and then did not move, and the snow on the ground was soon stained red with blood.

In an instant, everyone stopped, and in a deathly silence, they all stared at the corpse.

No one knew how the soldier's throat had suddenly been cut.

The Imperial Captain was obviously also a little stunned, how did this kill people? Before he came back to his senses, he saw a person rushing out of the crowd, that person was stout and fast, but many of the soldiers of the Nine Gates recognized it in an instant, it was a city gate captain, among the soldiers of the Nine Gates, he belonged to the senior generals.

The city gate captain clenched his fists, his face was terrifying, he looked at the captain of the royal forest angrily, and shouted coldly: "Why kill people? You Imperial Foresters, why did you kill my Nine Brothers? ”
