Murong Xu's eyes lit up, this was an unexpectedly good way.

"What about ourselves, our death squads are going to retreat, won't we step on the nail ourselves?"

"It's easy, tie a wooden board to the sole of each daredevil's shoe, thicken it a little and you'll be fine."

Murong Xu laughed, and he patted Wen Ji's shoulder hard.

"Yes, yes, how did you kid come up with it, but you don't need the death squad to carry it with you, we can use the trebuchet to scatter the nails now!"

Wen Ji touched his head, he smiled, this method came to his mind suddenly.

As soon as he thought of it, Murong Xu immediately ordered someone to go to the warehouse to move the big nails.

Those Dajing troops were storming Zongzheng Mansion, and suddenly there was a whistling sound in the air, they looked up, only to see a black cloud cover in the sky, and hurriedly raised their shields to cover it, and when the thing fell, they were all dumbfounded.

I saw that there was a dense layer of large-headed iron nails on the ground, and most of these nails were facing upwards, and as soon as they moved, they would step on the nails.

There was a burst of cheers in the Zongzheng Mansion, and they shot a rain of arrows, and those attacking Dajing troops hurriedly dodged, and many people stepped on nails in a panic, calling out to their fathers and mothers in pain.

At this time, a messenger came up to give an announcement.

"General Qiyu, Lord Xia, Lord Liang and Lord Yun are here, please go to the city tower to talk."

Murong Xu sighed.

"Why did the two of them come together, did something happen?"

"This villain doesn't know."

Murong Xu nodded and walked into the city tower with Xia Zixi.

There was a forbidden army standing at the gate of the city tower, and Murong Xu walked in and found that there were only Yun Ju and Liang Jianyu inside, and their expressions were very serious.

"Two adults, what's wrong?"

Liang Jianyu's voice was a little hoarse.

"The emperor has died."

"What?"

Murong Xu and Xia Zixi both trembled, although they had already predicted in their hearts.

Xia Zixi looked sad and couldn't help crying.

"The emperor, the emperor has designated a successor?"

Liang Jianyu took out the two edicts signed and stamped by Zhao Heng, and after reading them, Murong Xu and Xia Zixi were a little stunned, they didn't expect Zhao Heng to pass the throne to King Sui and King Xin at the same time.

"So, what do we do?"

Liang Jianyu's face was solemn.

"We discussed it with Concubine Shu and decided not to mourn secretly, at this critical juncture, we must conceal the news of the emperor's death, and we must not shake the hearts of the army!"

Xia Zixi and Murong Xu both nodded.

Yun Ju said: "Now at the last moment, Concubine Shu said that the burden of the country is on the four of us, and we want us to unite no matter what, and defend the palace!" ”

Murong Xu's gaze was firm.

"The last general will be crushed to pieces, and it is incumbent on him!"

Yun Ju sighed, and said: "But before, the emperor ordered us to release Gao Ming in His Royal Highness Kunning, let him make meritorious contributions, and go to the final negotiations with Dajingguo, what do you think?" ”

Xia Zixi thought for a while.

"I don't agree, I think Gao Ming should be killed, this guy colluded with foreign enemies, without him, there would be no long-term drive of the Dajing Army!"

Yun Ju looked at Murong Xu again.

Murong Xu didn't dare to make a decision.

"Lord Liang and Lord Yun, what do you mean?"

Yun Ju stroked his beard.

"The old man and Lord Liang have the same opinion, they feel that they can't negotiate peace, the battle has already been fought to this point, there is no point in discussing peace again, Wan Yan A Shilan will definitely not let us go."

Murong Xu looked outside the city tower.

"The three adults, Ben will remember that the concubine Niangniang once said that she must try her best to delay with Dajingguo, because she always believes in His Royal Highness King Xin, if the surnamed Gao is allowed to entangle with Wanyan A Shilan, will it be able to win us a few days?"

Liang Jianyu's eyes lit up.

"General Murong, do you mean to let the surnamed Gao go, no matter what the conditions are, we will not surrender, just delay time with the Great Capital Kingdom?"

"Yes, that's what Ben meant."

Yun Ju nodded.

"Yes, the ancients, the truth is false, the virtual is real, this is an idea, the surname Gao will incite people, if he can really say that Wanyan A Shilan retreats, it is not impossible to try."

Xia Zixi heard Murong Xu say this, and he also felt reasonable.

Liang Jianyu is the closest to the emperor among the three, with the highest official rank, and he is Yue'er's person, so he is the last to make the decision.

"Okay, then let the surnamed Gao negotiate with Dajingguo, but don't let him go alone, send a reliable person to follow him, if Gao Ming casually promises to stop it, he wants to make a private deal with Wan Yan A Shilan, just come back and tell us!"

Yun Ju asked, "Who is the right person to send, do you want to find one of the ministers?" ”

Xia Zixi hurriedly waved his hand.

"No, among the ministers, many of them are Gao Ming's original subordinates, and they are inextricably linked with him, if they collude, it will be troublesome, why don't you find someone from the forbidden army?"

Murong Xu raised his eyebrows.

"Three adults, there will be a candidate, his name is Wen Ji, he is in the city at the moment, he is a genius discovered by the concubine Niangniang, although this person is a little stunned, but he has no foundation in the officialdom and the forbidden army, and he will not be swayed by Gao Ming, so it is appropriate to send him!"

Liang Jianyu knew Wen Ji and immediately nodded.

"Okay, then ask Wen Ji to follow Gao Ming to the Dajing State military camp."

The four of them walked out of the city tower and saw that the city had been quiet.

In the afternoon, the sun was too poisonous, and those Dajing troops were already a little sluggish, and there were nails falling from the sky, so they didn't have the intention to pick them up at this time, so they simply went back to rest.

In the Chinese military tent, Wan Yan and A Shilan sat shirtless on a tiger skin chair, his shoulders wrapped in bandages, and he looked a little embarrassed.

There were more than a dozen generals standing in the tent, and everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at their lord Lang.

Wan Yan A Shilan was shot in both shoulders by Yue'er with a flying knife, he was fortunate to wear shoulder guards in addition to the heart guards, his shoulder guards could withstand heavy blows, but the flying knives were sharp and shot through the shoulder guards, fortunately he was not too seriously injured, but he couldn't do anything with people in the past two days, he asked angrily: "Why haven't you found that stinky girl yet, where did she flee to?" ”

General Jiagu stepped forward and bowed his hand.

"Lord Lang, that girl must not have fled into the palace, there are still three places left in the city that have not been taken, she must be hiding in one of them!"

"Why can't you take those three small places?"

General Jiagu looked depressed.

"Because there are no siege equipment, those trebuchets are somehow useless."

Wan Yan was furious, flew out with a kick, and kicked General Jiagu to the ground.

"You are all stupid, don't you know what to put away after the battle!"

General Jiagu got up, rubbing his ass and grinning.

"Lord Lang, didn't you order the whole army to enter the inner city last night?"

Wan Yan and A Shilan kicked again, kicking General Jiagu to the ground again.

"I told you to kill into the city, and I didn't tell you to ignore these things, obviously you are robbing things and going crazy, and you don't know how to protect!"

General Jiagu didn't dare to get up, he cried with a sad face.

"Yes, yes, it's all the incompetence of the subordinates, who didn't take good care of these important things."

Dun Shizhan sneered at General Jiagu from the side.

Wan Yan A Shilan turned her head and said fiercely to Dun Shizhan: "What are you laughing at, you are the same!" ”

Dun Shizhan hurriedly bowed his head.

At this time, someone stumbled into the big tent.

"Big, big brother, it's a big deal!"

This man was very embarrassed, his hair was scattered and covered half of his face, his body was covered with blood, and one arm hung limply, as if it had been broken.

"Y-Who are you?"

"Big brother, big brother, I'm your fourth brother, fourth brother!"

"What, Licheng, are you Shiro Lord Wan Yan Licheng?"

The man nodded, he was Shiro Lord Wan Yan Licheng, if it weren't for him, who would dare to let people in casually by the guards outside the door.

"What's wrong, aren't you blocking Dawei's reinforcements in Caizhou, why did you come here, Cong Wang?"

Wan Yan immediately began to cry.

"Caizhou was defeated, my whole army was wiped out, the second prince ran away, I don't know where he went!"

"What?"

Wan Yan A Shilan rushed to Wan Yan Licheng, he wanted to slap the fourth child twice, but his shoulders were injured and he couldn't use his strength.
