Chapter 402: Soldiers Coming to the City (550 Monthly Pass Plus Update)

"Haha, the national teacher's shot is really extraordinary, although my Mobei tribes have also broken through the barriers before, but the last time they attacked Longcheng was when the Great Wei had not yet unified the Central Plains, and it has been more than two hundred years since careful calculation. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Arub looked at the walls of Dragon City from afar and said, "Breaking through Dragon City and going further is the Wu Zixu Temple where the national teacher stayed at the beginning, and this time it will be renovated." ”

The result of the last Mobei Zhubu attack on Longcheng was to usher in the sharp counterattack of the Great Wei Taizu, the Great Wei Iron Cavalry directly attacked the Mobei thousands of miles away, and the tribes leading the army were slaughtered, but fortunately, at that time the Tang Kuo Department was still very weak and did not go south with the army, let go and escaped, and occupied an ownerless grassland to develop and grow; And now, after more than two hundred years, the Mobei tribes are going south again, but unfortunately there are no heroes like the Great Wei Taizu in the Central Plains.

"Thank you for the great khan's love, but now the tribe believes in shamans, if you renovate the temples in the Central Plains with great fanfare, I'm afraid it will be easy to provoke criticism, so it's better to postpone it." Yuan Zhang wanted to agree, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly declined politely, and turned the topic directly to the Dragon City Raiders, "Great Khan, Dragon City is a strong city in the world, and the defenders are all short of food and grass, and most of the accompanying troops are cavalry, lacking siege equipment and experience in attacking strong cities, if they attack the city head-on, I am afraid they will suffer huge damage." ”

"That's what the national teacher said." Arubu's attention was quickly shifted to combat, and he also thought deeply of Yuan Zhang's words, how many people were there in the Mobei Tribes? If there were too many injuries under this city, it would be a bit more than worth the loss, but he didn't have much to worry about, because he knew that since Yuan Zhang had raised this point, there must be a solution, "I don't know what the national teacher has to do?" ”

"Longcheng City is high and deep, there are many soldiers and food, if there is a capable general to command the army, then we have to find another way to go south." Yuan Zhang remembered the battle with Li You in Weizhou in the past, although he did not have the idea of putting the defenders in the city to death in that battle, but Li You's strategy of defending the city still surprised him, so he couldn't help but be glad, fortunately Li You was not in the Dragon City, otherwise he would really have to retreat, and 100,000 people were not enough to capture this fortified city.

No, if it is Li You in the city, then even if he damages half of the army, he must be killed, otherwise this person will definitely become the great enemy of the Mobei tribes in the future! Seeing that the city wall was getting closer and closer, Yuan Zhang's thoughts fell into a brief confusion, but he quickly woke up, "Fortunately, the defender in the city is a mediocre general, according to the news from the city, these **** only know that they are desperately sending messengers to the capital for help, and they have no intention of organizing defense, plus the meticulous work we have buried in the city, it may not take long to capture Dragon City; With the grain and grass stored in the city, our army will surely reap a great harvest. ”

Arriving at the foot of Longcheng City, the army did not directly attack, Yuan Zhang sent more than 10,000 elites to gallop under the city wall, showing the fierceness of the Mobei cavalry, and frightened the defenders of the city. After that, a messenger stepped forward and loudly told the defenders of the city, "The Great Khan has given you three days to prepare to surrender, if you and others take the initiative to surrender, then the army will not commit any crime after entering the city, but after three days, you are still stubborn, and my Mobei army will immediately begin to attack the city, and the chickens and dogs will not be left after the city is broken!" ”

After saying that, the envoy beckoned, hundreds of Great Wei prisoners were overwhelmed under the city, and the Mobei soldiers pressed them to the ground and knelt down towards Longcheng.

"Wait until you see it clearly, this is the end of the mantis arm as a car!" The messenger was pleased with their response, and after a triumphant reprimand, he pulled his horse and left.

The knife holder on the neck is sometimes more terrible than cutting it directly, this hand kills chickens and monkeys to make the hearts of the city's Chinese military officials and wealthy families shake one after another, the 100,000 army in Mobei is like a bamboo, they are clear about the bottom of the defenders of Longcheng, and it is expected that these people will not be able to hold Longcheng, so they are trapped and waiting for death, it is better to ......

As soon as he thought of this, the minds of those wealthy families and military generals were lively, as for those civil officials, although they were hindered by defending the land, they had the heart to deal with the Mobei tribes, but without the support of these people, they had nothing to do; Before the time of three days was up, someone secretly opened the city gate and put the Mobei army into the city.

Those officials and gentry who were a little more disciplined committed suicide to repay the king, but this was useless, and Longcheng still fell into the hands of the Mobei army; After entering the city, Yuan Zhang immediately sent people to receive several granaries, and those wealthy families who surrendered diligently sent cronies to guide them.

It's just that Yuan Zhang was disappointed that before the army reached the granary, he saw thick black smoke rising in the distance, and hundreds of thousands of stones of grain and grass were burned, although they tried their best to rescue, but the food they grabbed was still not enough for the army to go south, and what was even more strange was that they did not find any trace of the murderer.

Who is targeting us? Yuan Zhang fell into thought, if the Great Wei Imperial Court wanted to start, I am afraid that it would start setting fire on the day their soldiers came to the city, how could they wait until today? And the officials in the city, who are still a little disciplined, have already committed suicide, and it will not be their handiwork, and those wealthy families have no reason to do it.

"National teacher, now that there is a shortage of food and grass, what should I do?" Arub also began to get entangled, this time the way south went smoothly, and a fortified city like Dragon City was easily taken by them, but they didn't expect it to fall short when it was about to be completed.

"Now there are only two ways, first, to speed up the march and strive to reach the capital as soon as possible, so as to save the cost of grain and grass along the road; Second, we have to think of a way from the wealthy families in Dragon City, this matter is caused by their ineffective work, and the grain and grass lost by our army should also be asked for from them. Yuan Zhang made a quick decision.

So before the wealthy families of Longcheng had time to congratulate themselves on the preservation of their family business, they were sacked by the Mobei tribes, and the grain and grass that the Great Wei court could not pick out by all their might, were tortured several times by the vicious Mobei soldiers, and they were obediently sent up.

With these grains and grasses, the crisis of the Mobei tribes was temporarily alleviated, and the army accelerated the speed of moving south to the capital, and the defenders of the Great Wei were all dispersed along the way, and they had reached the vicinity of Gyeonggi in a few days.

The civil and military officials in the court immediately panicked, and they hurriedly prevented the forbidden army from going up to the city wall to prepare for defense, and another fast horse galloped out of the capital and sent King Qin's documents to all parts of the Great Wei Dynasty, in order to escape this catastrophe.
