Chapter Twenty-Three: A Call for Help

Zhu Qi answered.

Ziyang hurriedly wrote a letter asking for help to Emperor Sima Wen, Prince Sima Ren, Zhenguo Zhuchen Sima Zhan, and Prime Minister Shi Chong, and secretly arranged for Dapeng to go for help.

Before Dapeng left, Zhuge Mou came in and said: "Dapeng brings Li Le, it is possible to get reinforcements, then Li Le is the current Ninth Princess Sima Yu." ”

Ziyang and Dapeng were surprised, but they didn't have time to think about it, so Dapeng quietly rushed to the capital with the ninth princess Sima Yu.

Ziyang had just finished arranging this, and the sentry came to report: "The enemy army is ready to attack the city." ”

Ziyang hurriedly came to the city, and Zhuge Mou quietly went to do something.

The cavalry of the Red Tooth Khanate saw that reinforcements were coming, and these 300,000 reinforcements were wearing white silk, and their fighting spirit was high, coupled with the fact that they thought that Timur was avenging Timur as an excuse to boost their morale, the morale of the cavalry of the Red Khanate suddenly rose, and every siege soldier tied white silk to show their determination to sacrifice their lives for the country.

Ziyang saw that the back was bigger, and all the previous blows to the enemy army were ineffective, but it aroused their morale, and he secretly admired the strategy of *** in his heart.

Actually, at this time, the strategy of Empress Uyal.

Zhu Qi said loudly at this time: "Lord Protector of the Kingdom will defend the city with us, for our country, for the sake of our wives and children behind us, we will live and die with this city." ”

"Coexist with this city........ live and die with this city........ live and die with this city........"

The shouts came one after another, shaking the entire county.

Ziyang secretly exclaimed in his heart, "This Zhu Qi is really not simple, she has a handsome talent." I also deeply admire these soldiers who defend the city.

Only a burst of drums was heard, and hundreds of thousands of enemy troops carried ladders and rushed towards the city with scimitars.

Ziyang understood that this first batch of soldiers was basically here to send them to death, to fill the moat with their corpses, and to lay the foundation for the subsequent cavalry charges.

The sound of killing was covered by wave after wave, and the flow of people rushed like a flood, and the scene was extremely shocking.

A rain of arrows was shot from the city wall, and the charging people fell one stubble after another, as if endlessly, and the ground of the city wall was like a hedgehog, full of arrow feathers.

In less than two hours, the 100,000 torrents were killed and wounded, and the entire moat was filled with corpses, and the blood stained the earth red, and it flowed into the holy lake.

Suddenly, the enemy threw a huge catapult from the iron cavalry and stopped a thousand meters in front of the city, a distance from which the crossbow could not be fired.

Zhu Qi shouted: "The people of the eastern city wall will go to the city wall of the urn city immediately, be fast", and soon the soldiers and horses on the weak city wall immediately retreated.

Zhu Qi said to Ziyang: "My lord, we must find a way to burn these catapults, otherwise our defenses will be breached. ”

Before Ziyang could make arrangements, a large number of boulders with flames slammed towards the eastern city wall, and the city wall quickly collapsed into a ten-meter-long gap.

Ziyang said to Huofeng: "It's up to you, burn all those catapults for me." ”

The fire phoenix was very excited when it fought for the first time, and quickly turned into a two-zhang long fire phoenix, the instigator's fiery red wings, and the fire feathers emitted flames, which stunned the soldiers.

The fire phoenix let out a long roar and flew away, spewing out fiery red flames above the catapults, and the dozens of giant catapults instantly turned into dust.

I saw waves of arrows shooting towards the fire phoenix. But before the arrow reached the side of the fire phoenix, it was extinguished, and when the fire phoenix saw this, he was furious in his heart, and spewed out flames, sweeping towards those cavalry, and all the cavalry stained with a trace of flame was immediately wiped out.
