Chapter 505: I Understand Him!
Boom Boom Boom ......
Juyong is closed. The artillery fire was like thunder, the shouts of killing were earth-shattering, and the smell of blood permeated dozens of miles and lasted for a long time.
The barbarian cavalry surged and began to siege the city.
"Block me...... Be sure to stop them! ”
On the tower of the city, Gu Zhan led his soldiers to resist desperately. From day to night, the battle has been fierce for three days and three nights, the soldiers have suffered countless casualties, and the enemy's offensive is still fierce, and it has not weakened by half a point.
Gu Zhan's eyes were bloodshot. His soldiers were even more exhausted. But they all knew that the Juyong Pass could not be broken, and once it was lost, the barbarian army would take advantage of the situation and go south, and it would be irresistible.
However, can it be held?
Gu Zhan felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart. He knew best that the Gu clan was facing the most powerful enemy, and the troops were divided into four ways to conquer the city. The 300,000 dragoons were stationed in northern Xinjiang, and without the help of reinforcements, they could not resist the barbarian army at all.
Drag it out for a day, count it as a day!
He can only comfort himself like this, as a royal family of the Gu family, do his duty and fight to the death.
"The city is in the people! The city is dead, the people are dead! ”
Draw your sword, raise your arms and shout. Gu Zhan knew that as a commander-in-chief, the most important thing now was to boost the morale of the army. Once the morale of the army is weakened, it will not be far from the destruction of the city.
"The city is here!"
"The city is dead, the people are dead!"
It is undeniable that the ancient war was well-governed, took the lead, and tried his best to fight the soldiers. Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, fighting in the face of a strong enemy, without the slightest timidity.
"It's just a fight of trapped beasts!"
in the barbarian army. The snow lion flag fluttered high, and a strong man rode a snow mastiff giant dog, looking at the Juyong Guancheng Tower, and the corners of his mouth showed disdain.
"Herald of the owner!"
But he turned his head suddenly, rushed at the rear army, and shouted at the voice: "No need to entangle any more, break through the Juyong Pass in one fell swoop, the army will go south, and the imperial capital will be met!" ”
"The benefactor's command, the snow elves must obey!"
The soft voice of the words came. Although in the midst of thousands of troops, the words sounded clearly. A silver-haired woman suddenly appeared in mid-air, wearing a silver robe, with a slender and straight body, and her beauty did not resemble a human.
But when she raised the scepter in her hand, a strange sound similar to a chant came from her mouth, and in an instant, the scepter in her hand burst into blue light. An indescribable surge of mysterious power poured out.
"Arctic Storm!"
With a crisp shout, the wind howled, and the snow drifted away. Countless fist-sized hailstones fell like raindrops, and there was even a bone-chilling air current, enveloping the entire Juyong Pass.
"What kind of power is this? She, who is she? ”
On the tower of the city, Gu Zhan's face was full of horror. As a Great War Spirit, he is able to withstand the cold and hail attacks. But his soldiers did not have this ability, and there were terrible screams all around. Not to mention the soldiers who were killed and injured by hail, they were eroded by the cold air flow and instantly turned into ice sculptures.
Below the tower, the barbarian army was not affected in the slightest. At this moment, taking advantage of the heavy losses suffered by the Gu clan's soldiers and horses, they rushed to kill in a rage.
"Juyong is over! I Gu's ...... Finished! ”
There was a silent sigh in my heart. Gu Zhan threw away the sword in his hand and closed his eyes. At this moment, he no longer resisted, because it was a dead end...... Surrender, not for yourself, but for the soldiers who have followed you for many years on the battlefield.
The same situation also occurred in the eastern and southern territories. The Xinghai army is overwhelming and unstoppable.
In the direction of the west road, the fighting is more intense. The Gu clan requisitioned a million troops and set up a fortification along the Luo River. However, when encountering the elite soldiers and horses of Xinghai led by Fang Xiaobao, any defense was like a piece of paper, and it was vulnerable.
In just half a month, all the four territories and eight provinces fell, and only the remnants retreated to the imperial capital. The four armies of Xinghai converged, and Chen Bing was under the imperial capital, but he did not launch an offensive at the first time.
Fear! I will make you feel real fear, and despair!
This is Fang Xiaobao's true intention.
"Your Majesty, we are defeated, completely defeated!"
"The Xinghai army is coming to the city, whether it is a battle or a surrender...... Your Majesty has already made a decision! ”
Golden Luang Hall. A group of courtiers wept and petitioned like a mourner. Most of them surrendered, and the strength of the Xinghai Foundation was in front of them, and if they did not surrender, they would be slaughtered.
But there are also a small number of old ministers who resolutely refuse to surrender.
"A king is a king, a minister is a minister!"
"As an emperor, you must not surrender to your courtiers!"
A group of old ministers led by Wei Yan and Fu Cheng and King Nanyue sharply refuted those courtiers who surrendered, and at the same time asked for orders, they were willing to represent the Gu clan and go out of the city to negotiate with Xinghai.
"What to talk about? How to talk about it? ”
Sitting on the throne, Gu Lie's face is like a tree, and his heart is as cold as ashes. From the moment the second elder of the inner court did not listen to the order and acted without authorization, he knew that he had completely broken with the one in the sea of stars, and the two sides were already endless.
"Three outlines and five constants, the king is the sky, and it cannot be violated!"
Wei Yan Wei Ge asked in a deep voice: "As long as Your Majesty grants the old minister the right to make a decision on the spot, the old minister has confidence and will be able to persuade King Zhenhai to change his mind!" ”
"The old minister is willing to go together!"
"The old minister is also willing!"
Fu Chengnan, King Yue, seconded the motion. They all have something to do with Xinghai more or less, take Wei Yan as an example, his son is Wei Yunxiang, one of the eight heavenly kings of Xinghai. Fu Cheng's son-in-law Jin Laifu, Xinghai's best friend. Not to mention the king of Nanyue, his daughter and son-in-law are all high-level Xinghai.
Move it with affection, know it with righteousness. They have the confidence to persuade Xinghai to retreat, and they are not unprovoked.
But Gu Lie knew better than anyone that there might be a chance to salvage the situation before the assassination happened. But now, no one can influence the decision of the Star Sea.
"He can't give anyone what he wants, only me!"
Gu Lie spoke slowly. looked at His Highness's ministers and sighed lightly: "Pass on my edict, open the city gate, I want to meet him in person!" ”
"Your Majesty, no!"
"The remnants of the sea of stars are fierce, and they may not make moves that are unfavorable to Your Majesty!"
The courtiers were shocked when they heard this, and they all spoke to dissuade them. Wei Yan, Fu Cheng and other old ministers even tried their best to dissuade them, and resolutely disagreed with Gu Lie's risk.
"I have made up my mind, you don't need to say much!"
But Gu Lie was so determined that he insisted on doing so. But seeing him get up slowly, his eyes looked around the ministers with majestic eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his old face that did not match his age: "Don't worry, I have a way to make Xinghai withdraw and make him change his mind...... There will be no rebellion in this life and this life! ”
The hall was silent. All the courtiers looked at each other.
"You can't figure it out because you don't know him!"
Gu Lie laughed, waved his hand and retreated towards the apse, when the faint voice sounded again, "I understand him and know what he wants...... Therefore, as long as I give it to him, all the crises will be solved! ”
