Chapter 255: Start the War 2

The highland city and county have been under a lot of pressure, but now there are not enough soldiers and horses in the city, and the whole city has been surrounded by people from outside, but this is a remote suburb, and there is no other person who can help him notify the royal city to support, if he forcibly resists the pressure, it will definitely cause many unnecessary casualties.

Just when the soldiers in the city were fighting back, the high-pitched business ran through everyone's hearts, and some people had involuntarily started to chant with a strong sense of rhythm, and unconsciously, the battle had not officially started, and everyone subconsciously felt that this battle, Highland City would definitely lose.

Parents with local children perceived the threat and couldn't help but want their children to give up resistance and stop joining the army, so the external struggle had not yet begun, and there was already a terrible division inside.

After carefully analyzing the pros and cons, the county lord of Highland City also came to a conclusion, that is, this war will not benefit the locals at all, it is better to give up resistance first and wait for the royal capital to send people to support, and then the people will not have to be threatened in any way.

So after a stalemate for about half an hour, the gate of Highland City took the initiative to open, and even Mo Wubian didn't realize that they gave up so quickly and so simply.

Seeing that the early action was so smooth, Mo Wubian thought about it for a while, and asked a commander to stay and count the highland city, and by the way, carefully collect a wave of grain and grass, and then quickly gathered another man, and went to the small city downstream, wanting to catch him off guard, it was much better to let them notify the core imperial capital by themselves, than to take the initiative to wait for them to attack.

This place is a lowland city, although it is not far from Highland City, but it is a city in the original territory of Tianpu, although it is also close to the border, but the degree of attention to this town is significantly higher than that of Highland City, so this is not something that Hongling's slogan can suppress at will, here, the role of those slogans has been eliminated a lot.

Mo Wubian quickly gathered 10,000 horses, surrounded the lowland city, and launched a desperate struggle with the city lord, the two soldiers inevitably suffered death and injury, although Mo Wubian had many men and horses, the degree of equipment was far less strong than the other party, especially the city lord here is a strong person, unwilling to give up, even if it is difficult, he always gritted his teeth and persisted.

There was even a short period of time, which really made them stand out some people, Mo Wubian hurriedly tightened the formation and suppressed all the people's firepower to the gate, as for those who went out, Mo Wubian lined up in a small team to chase and kill, leaving only one person to deliver the letter, which also demonstrated Mo Wubian's determination.

Although Xiaocheng fought hard, but after all, it couldn't withstand the suppression of absolute strength, so just after an hour, Xiaocheng was already a little struggling, and even couldn't send extra people, so it also made Mo Wubian's team finish extremely quickly, and within half an hour, Lowland City had lost all its ability to counterattack, and it was almost a death when one came out, this senseless consumption was undoubtedly grinding Lowland City to the ground.

Soon, the city lord of Lowland City also chose to give up, but unlike Highland City, he chose to stand on the city wall and lead his sword to death, which made Mo Wubian sincerely admire, so after entering Lowland City, Mo Wubian was also stricter with the people in the city, because he knew that with such a city lord, the people here are definitely not easy to tame, and never trust everyone here.

After making the same choice of food and grass, Mo Wubian sealed the entire city and refused to allow anyone to enter and leave the Low Earth City at will, and at this time, the news of Mo Wubian's large-scale attack had already spread back to the Tianpu Court.

When he heard the news, Jiang Zhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he had been worried for the past half a year, thinking about what Hongling said at the beginning, he didn't know if it was true or not, and even after a long time, he had begun to have some doubts, and finally heard the news of their counterattack, his heart couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, instead of just talking about how the heavenly spectrum was like before.

He raised his head and glanced at Liu Di, only to see Liu Di looking at the little soldier in front of him very puzzled, "They went to the lowland city?" ”。

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"There are so many of them, you didn't even find out in advance?"

The little soldier knelt tremblingly under the hall, as if he was ready to die violently at any time, the little soldier didn't know how to speak, only muttered for a long time, but didn't explain any useful information.

Liu Di frowned slightly, waved his hand in disgust, and let people drag him down, Jiang Zhong saw the right time, stepped forward and asked, "I don't know what the emperor is going to do?" ”。

In the past six months, Liu Di has been immersed in the gentle township, and the anger on his body has dissipated a lot.

He was taken aback by the thoughts in his heart, and he wondered a little, he had already melted the war into his bones all his life, why did he think about giving up so softly?

Suddenly, he remembered the woman he loved so much in the palace, since she accepted him, his hatred and indifference to this world have become less and less, sometimes so much so that he was a little shocked when he remembered his wanton killing behavior before, how cruel could he be?

Liu Di looked around, and finally locked his eyes on Jiang Zhong, and then said: "Except for the prime minister, the rest of the people will step back first."

Jiang Zhong was slightly stunned, waiting for the others to leave here, and then arched his hand towards Liu Di and asked, "What does it mean if it's not the emperor?" ”。

Liu Di pursed his lips slightly, and said: "Prime Minister, why don't you tell me, how I should do a good job, I haven't fought for a long time, and I feel a little powerless."

Jiang Zhong never expected that Liu Di would trust himself so much, he couldn't help but sweat in his heart, and now he almost acquiesced that the winner of this war belonged to Nanzhao, at this time, his own advice must be extremely unfair to Tianpu, although he has always wanted to see his daughter for so many years, but the national society is also his lifelong dream, and the best state he feels is that he doesn't have to work so hard to make suggestions, so that everything looks like it happened naturally, so that he will recall in the future, He doesn't have such a big psychological burden.

"Minister...... I really don't know ......."

Liu Di waved his hand slightly, "That's it, then send the general to meet them", after speaking, Liu Di got up and walked out of the imperial study and went to Xiaoqing's courtyard......
