Rajah. Tian Da led the Dark Flower over. Tian Da was very wary of this woman who suddenly appeared, and always felt that there was a conspiracy.

Jing Lin raised his eyes and glanced at the woman behind him, "You can stay in the house." ”

"No, I have to follow you and protect you." The Stygian Flower keeps its mission in mind.

"Whatever you want." Jing Lin walked out of the eaves. Tian Da hurriedly held up an oil-paper umbrella and chased after him.

Jing Lin and General Qian discussed things in the big tent, and Shenhua was stopped outside by Tian Da. Tian Da was curious about where this woman came from, and she still wanted to follow behind the little prince. Stygian Flower was very uncomfortable stared at by Tian Da, turned around, and found a wooden stake to sit down.

According to the original plan, the city will be attacked in a few days. General Yuan and King Xiaoyao have already mixed into Pingcheng, and the people of Pingcheng have also been impatient, and several rebellions have broken out, and the opportunity is ripe. Jing Lin looked at the map on the table, "General Qian, this king wants to attack the city tonight." ”

General Qian looked at Jinglin in surprise, three days in advance. "Why?"

"We're ready, the sooner the better. It's just snowing now, and it's easy to move, but if it gets bigger, we'll be slower. Jing Lin was worried. The castle towers of Heijo are not built of pure clay, and some of them are made of bricks, which are relatively strong and not easy to damage. In addition to the city gate, there are not only city gates, but also city walls, city towers, horse faces, and handover buildings, which together form a defensive system.

"Is the prince worried?" General Qian felt the regent's agitation. In fact, not only Jinglin, but also the soldiers of the entire Tianqing were a little worried.

"Yes. Not tonight, tomorrow night to attack the city. Now you and the king will go and see how the things are prepared. "This is a large-scale siege, division of labor and cooperation, and there can be no failure.

In the era of cold weapons, attacking and defending the city was a cruel battle to the death, and it was the next strategy in the art of war. Jing Lin wanted to minimize the casualties on his side, which was very difficult.

Jing Lin talked with the generals one by one, reviewed the preparations one by one, and did not read them all until night.

Jing Lin slept on the bed tossing and turning. This battle can only be won, not defeated, otherwise, this winter, he will not be able to go back to the capital.

The next day, Jinglin set out with an army of 300,000 and approached Pingcheng.

The white snow was crushed, and the army approached the city gates, showing a siege. The war drums sounded, the Tianqing flag waved, and Jing Lin drew his long sword and shouted, "Siege!" ”

"Rush!" The soldiers rushed out in their respective duties. Take a ladder, shoot arrows, and shield a row to resist. Timber, rocks, chariots, all worked in unison, and the battle began. Jing Lin took the longbow handed by Tian Da and aimed at the figure on the city tower from a distance......

In the Pingcheng Palace, Prince Zhou put on his armor and rode on a horse and hurriedly set off towards the city gate. Today, Pingcheng must be defended, otherwise, Nanping will die.

In a small courtyard in Heijo. Jing Yanhua was dressed in coarse linen clothes and had a knife pinned to his waist, and went out of the courtyard alone.

When they arrived at a courtyard, Jing Yanhua knocked on the door. "Erniu, it's me, Wangcai." The door creaked open, and a man pulled Jing Yanhua in.

"Why are you here?" Erniu asked.

"It's a fight." Jing Yanhua rubbed his hands, and said angrily.

"Huh? So we can get out? "Erniu has long wanted to go out. Here, there is no livelihood, no food, and he is hungry all day long.

"I don't know." Jing Yanhua swallowed, "Do you still have anything to eat here?" I'm starving to death. ”

"Where else to eat. You little white face, go find a rich woman and keep what you have to eat. The second bull thief said with a smirk.

Jing Yanhua looked left and right and pulled Erniu into the back room. "Don't scold me. If Nanping is finished this time, it is difficult to say if you mess with those nobles. "Jing Yanhua pretended to run out of the nobleman's house, and then met Erniu. Erniu used to be an underworld, and he had many brothers under him. I wanted to run out some time ago, but I was scared back.

"Brother Erniu, I heard something private before I ran out, which scared me." Jing Yanhua's little face was pale, his legs were weak, his expression was frightened, and he looked like he was not planted.

"What's the matter, scaring you like this?" Erniu was curious. In this kind of national crisis, he is also patriotic, but this Nanping was originally a family with Tianqing before, and the Tianqing Dynasty governed better. On a personal level, he also wants to live a few more years.

"Don't tell anyone if I say it."

"Don't worry, I will never tell anyone." Erniu pulled Jing Yanhua to sit on the bed, "You can be honest, hurry up." ”

"Then I said it." Jing Yanhua leaned in Er Niu's ear and said, "The spies who came in from Tianqing's side were caught by the Pingcheng guards, and I learned from him that they took the initiative to surrender Tianqing to divide the land and officials, and if they were passively attacked, the people of Pingcheng and Qiangcheng would be treated differently." ”

"Why?" Erniu was dissatisfied, very dissatisfied. are also from Nanping, why is Qiangcheng Jincheng treated so well, but they can't be in Pingcheng? "Discrimination, this is discrimination."

Jing Yanhua sighed and lay on the table, "Don't worry about it, we may not be able to save our lives." His Majesty in the palace said, Pingcheng is here, everyone is here, Pingcheng is not there, he is not there, let's not think about it. ”

"What?"

Jing Yanhua gave himself a big mouth, "Make you unable to control your mouth." ”

Erniu glared at Jing Yanhua, "Honestly, what did you hear from the nobleman?" ”

Jing Yanhua covered his mouth, "Brother Erniu, I didn't say anything, don't take it seriously, I just owe it." Er Niu grabbed Jing Yanhua's collar, "You be honest, otherwise I'll click you." Erniu made a gesture of wiping his neck. Jing Yanhua shook into a sieve, "Brother Erniu, calm down, I said, say everything." ”

Erniu let go of Jing Yanhua's collar and flicked the dust on Jing Yanhua. "Say."

"I just heard that His Majesty is tough, and he said that he will not leave a day at all. Even if he dies, he has to take everyone down with him to build an underground country. Jing Yanhua whispered, "Didn't Your Majesty want to slaughter Tianqing's Linhuai City before, I heard that the children were pushed down from the city tower." ”

Erniu has also heard of this, this new emperor has created a lot of evil. "You stay here honestly, I'll go back as soon as I go." Erniu turned around and walked out of the house. Before leaving, he locked the door. Jing Yanhua smiled, he didn't run, he wanted to run, and he also ran with Erniu.

Siege warfare is a protracted battle. The Stygian Flower also followed, standing behind Jing Lin. This is the first time that the Stygian Flower has seen a real battlefield. She thought that what she had seen before was cruelty, but now she realized that war is the most cruel.

"Will it win?" Stygian couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know." Jing Lin really doesn't know.

Two hours had passed, and the city gates had not yet been opened. Jing Lin stood up suddenly and looked straight at the figure on the city tower. Although he couldn't see it clearly, he could be sure that it was Prince Zhou.
