Chapter 101: Su Nianqing's Art of War
There was a commotion at the gate of the palace, the eldest prince Mo Yuan had already led people to attack the city, Mo Xiao stood on the palace wall, looking at the eldest prince condescendingly, "Brother the emperor, it's still too late to turn back, my father will forgive you." ”
The injury on Mo Xiao's back was still not healed, and the whole person stood on the palace wall and was blown by the cold wind, as if he could be blown off the palace wall by this cold wind.
Mo Yuan sneered, and now he has opened his bow and has not turned back, "Can you turn back?" I can't go back for a long time. ”
How could he have thought that? deposed him as the crown prince, even if he was an idle king, it was good, as long as he could stay with his beloved Ru'er for the rest of his life, so he had never fought these days, but now he has nothing, and the emperor wants to kill him completely.
The eldest prince looked at Mo Xiao with a deep meaning in his eyes, "Sooner or later, you will also follow my old path." ”
He knew that Mo Xiao loved Mo Yu deeply, and their relationship was a violation of ethics and morals, so he firmly believed that Mo Xiao would definitely follow his old path.
After speaking, the eldest prince continued to command the rebels to attack the palace gate.
A group of guards in the palace desperately guarded the palace wall. At this special time, as long as the palace gate is lost, then they will be like a bamboo, and they will directly take Zhaoren Palace.
"Brother Emperor, do you want to kill your father and usurp the throne?"
Mo Xiao shouted under the wall, and at this time there were corpses all over the ground, and Mo Xiao was also covered in blood.
Mo Yuan raised his hand and killed several city guards, and his face was immediately dipped in blood, "No, I just want Ru'er!" ”
The emperor doesn't want it, but Ru'er he wants it, at that time he was alone in the middle palace and the queen on the surface of his mother and son, but he couldn't experience the warmth of his mother at all. There was no playmate beside him, and only Ru'er accompanied him. She was gentle and considerate and understanding, and when everyone didn't understand him, she was the only one who stood by his side, so from then on, he had made up his mind that he must love her well in this life.
Mo Xiao walked down the city and gathered all the guards in the palace, "You must defend this palace wall, you must not let them attack it, I will go, I will move the rescue soldiers." ”
Half of the men in the ink were banging on the door, and half were already climbing up the wall.
At this time, the five princes came with the Praetorian Guards, and one of them was equivalent to the dead soldiers around the emperor, who might be able to resist for a while in this emergency.
The fifth prince spoke anxiously, "How about now?" ”
Although the brothers are usually at odds, they still have to stand on the same line at this critical moment.
Mo Xiao shook his head, "The queen wants to blackmail the ministers' wives, and they don't dare to act rashly outside the palace. He tricked us into the palace again, and the situation is not optimistic. ”
Mo Yi took a sip in a low voice, "This Mo Yuan is really useless, for a woman, it's a shame." ”
What he looks down on the most is women, he thinks that women will drag their feet the most, so he doesn't look down on those men who work hard for women.
Mo Xiao ignored him, "How many arrows are there in the palace at this time?" ”
Mo Ye sighed lightly, "Less than two thousand!" ”
Mo Xiao paced back and forth, whispering: "Less than two thousand, two thousand." ”
The rest were probably in the military department, and turned their heads to look at Mo Yi, "This is the Praetorian Guard you are in charge of, didn't you ever think that one day it would be like this?" ”
He has always known the truth that he brought an umbrella and full of dry food, so when he was in charge of the Praetorian Guard, he must have emergency weapons in the palace.
Mo Yi was silent, and commanded the Praetorian Guards to fire arrows downward.
The people of Moyuan rolled down the long ladder, screaming, and many of the people who slammed the door were also shot, like the palace gate that was about to be knocked open, and they were able to rest for a while.
Mo Xiao took the sword and wanted to fly down and fight to the death with Mo Yuan, if he had not been injured, Mo Yuan was not his opponent.
But now that he has injuries on his body, I'm afraid he is not Mo Yuan's opponent, if he is held hostage to blackmail the emperor, it will become a cause for chaos, Mo Xiao thought about it and didn't go down after all.
At this time, Su Nianqing came with a group of palace maids and eunuchs, some with basins in their hands, some with buckets, and some carrying firewood from boilers.
She held the gentleman's sword in her hand and commanded the palace maids and eunuchs.
Mo Xiao walked over, "What are you doing here?" ”
At this time, where should she hide well, what should she do if she runs here and has no eyes and hurts her?
The palace maids and eunuchs had already set up the stoves, lit the firewood, and poured all the oil into the pots, buckets by buckets.
Mo Xiao understood that Su Nianqing was going to burn the oil and pour it off the city wall.
"How long can you afford this little oil?"
"Boiling oil is used to burn the ears of the city walls, the oil is scalded, the soldiers fall, and the city is protected."
It was recorded in the war book, thinking that she should have read the war book, Mo Xiao secretly praised her wit.
After a while, the boiling oil fell from the wall, and the rebels led by the eldest prince fell to the ground, screaming incessantly.
But there are so many people, which can be solved by a few barrels of oil, and the next batch is one after another.
Su Nianqing dodged a bow and arrow from the Praetorian Guards who were holding a bow and arrow, looked around, and tore off a large piece of Mo Xiao's ink-colored robe.
Mo Xiao frowned, and said loudly: "Su Nianqing, what are you doing?" ”
Su Nianqing didn't pay attention to him, rolled the cloth he had torn just now into the oil, then wrapped it around the scissors, and then lit the fire and quickly set it on the bow and shot it towards the rebel crowd.
The rocket quickly burned when it encountered oil, and the surrounding group of rebels began to burn, along with the oil that had just been poured down, and the fire quickly burned to the people, and the rebels were quite scrambling.
Mo Yuan shouted at the screaming people, "Useless things! As he spoke, he raised the sword in his hand, and wanted to kill the person in front of him with a sword, but after thinking about it, he finally put down the sword, he was never as vicious as the fifth prince Mo Yi, if he changed Mo Yi, Mo Yi would definitely kill all the people around him without thinking about it.
Mo Xiao saw Su Nianqing's skillful drawing of the bow and arrows, the corners of his mouth rose, and he smiled, he didn't know that she was so witty.
The oil quickly ran out, and the fire under the wall began to slowly decrease, and Mo Xiao's people began to attack again, and there were few arrows left, and Mo Xiao was in trouble.
Seeing that several soldiers had come up, Mo Yi slashed down with a sword, "Give it all to me, no one is allowed to put it up." ”
But his military order was like an empty phrase at this time, how could he fight the enemy without weapons?
But Su Nianqing didn't seem to be in a hurry, last night you took out a thick cloth to cover your mouth and nose, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs also covered their mouths and noses, carrying a bucket and carrying a basin and walking towards the back.
Su Nianqing handed Mo Xiao a piece of cloth, "Here!" ”
Mo Xiao didn't reach for it, not understanding what she meant.
Su Nianqing immediately retracted his hand, "Don't regret it." ”
He had read military books with his brother, marching and fighting, although she didn't know much, but she understood some of the art of war, but she lacked practical training, my brother once said that if she could go to the battlefield, she must also be a brave and good female general, but how could he bear to let her go to the battlefield?
Mo Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw that you were poor in donkey skills, "Mo Xiao, Mo is also a brother in the past, if you open the door obediently and let me in, I will spare your life." But if you still resist, then it's no wonder that I don't think of brotherhood. ”
Seeing that the palace gate was about to be knocked open, the remaining hundreds of arrows and ink were also calculated to shoot the one who hit the door, and it was really enough to go to the battlefield for the first time.
Suddenly, there was a stench.
