"Arrows... Ignition... Shoot.."

A veteran saw that the oil had taken effect, and then stopped talking nonsense, and directly ordered the archers to light the rocket and shoot it at the oil.

The hot oil was quenched, so the moment the rocket fell, the oil flowing all over the ground instantly burned.

However, the casualties were not increased again, because by the time the oil was poured down, all the people under the city wall had already died, and the soldiers who were splashed were far away.

Although the fire did not cause greater casualties, the siege ladders could not be pushed away at the first time, so the siege ladders were burned with fire oil.

Then the entire ladder began to burn, and Gou Jian was angry and anxious, wanting to rescue the ladder back, but it was too late.

The angry Gou Jian didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered the catapult to be smashed hard.

"Boom..."

As the roar continued, the entire city wall and the ground felt a tremor, and the large stones of the basin flew up from behind Gou Jian, and then smashed the wall of the acropolis.

And then came the damage, and it was a huge damage, not to mention the stones that hit the outside of the city wall, the stones that smashed into the crowd and the stones that smashed on the city wall brought great damage to the soldiers.

The stones were thrown by the catapult, and the speed and force, just by the strength of the stones, smashed into the soldier's body, and suddenly the flesh and blood could be smashed, and there would not be a complete person.

And when it hits the city wall, the rubble suddenly flies, and it is like a small cannonball, which can cut through the leather armor in an instant, directly hit the flesh, and even penetrate the thighs and arms.

Therefore, the constantly flying stones caused great damage to the soldiers defending the city, and all this was in the eyes of the great prince, and his heart ached. Then the eldest prince was erected down by the two veterans and took refuge behind the tower.

And the soldiers were not stupid, one by one they climbed down the city wall and hid behind the city wall.

Although Gou Jian's catapult brought great damage to the soldiers defending the city, it could not change the burning of the siege ladder, and there was now a sea of fire outside the city wall, so there was no way to continue the assault.

Finally, under the audience of several regiment commanders, Gou Jiancai ordered the siege to be suspended and the battle resumed tomorrow. This made those legion commanders breathe a sigh of relief.

With Gou Jian's Mingjin withdrawing troops, the eldest prince and a group of veterans suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but they also knew that today's pass was passed, but fortunately the one who led the troops was a fool, otherwise it would not be easy to defend.

In the evening, in the city lord's mansion of the Acropolis, all the generals and main regimental commanders gathered, and even the old man who vomited blood during the day came back to sit in the living room, but his spirit was still not very good.

At this time, the eldest prince glanced at everyone and said, "Although today is a victory, it is also a tragic victory, the only good thing is that they destroyed their siege ladder, which is still gratifying, but what is the battle damage today?"

As the words of the eldest prince fell, none of them answered, and there was silence for a while, and the last veteran stood up and said, "Back to the emperor, a total of more than 5,000 people were killed in the battle today, and nearly 10,000 people were injured." ”

At this time, this veteran followed the old emperor to fight the world together, but later he was old and retired, and then he did not hide the tyranny of the three princes, and finally successfully escaped from the imperial capital with the help of someone with a heart.

finally took refuge in the side of the eldest prince.

Of course, for the eldest prince, the addition of these veterans is still very exciting, not to mention the others, the stragglers who escaped still need someone to lead in the end.

And around them, there are not many people available, so these veterans naturally exerted some residual heat and once again provoked the beam.

It's just that no one knows that the eldest prince plays chess very deeply, and it is not that the eldest prince has not run into the army at all, on the contrary, the eldest prince has run quite well, otherwise there would not have been so many people gathered in the secret room.

As for the panicked escape of the eldest prince, the scenes played accounted for the majority, and the purpose was very simple, so that his henchmen could effectively penetrate the core, and one day, lay a solid foundation for his own return.

It's just that when he heard the veteran's words, the eldest prince still frowned, because in today's battle, this battle damage is a bit big.

Then he looked at the few people sitting in the lower hand, these people were all people who were ordered to go to the surrounding cities of Zhao'an, eager to get help from the surrounding cities.

It's just that looking at their dejected appearances, the eldest prince knows something more or less in his heart.

The eldest prince didn't say anything, just watched silently, and finally couldn't stand the gaze of the eldest prince, a young man, about 30 years old, got up and hugged his fists and said:

"Your Majesty, the current Zhao'an effect is not good, whether it is the city lord of many cities, or the guard generals of the city defense army, they don't buy our account, or they will be fooled in the past. ”

"None of them are in support of you, so...."

"So none of you have Zhao'an, right?" the eldest prince said directly.

The man who reported could only nod his head, indicating that what the eldest prince said was right!

At this time, the eldest prince gently rubbed his forehead, and his heart was a little troubled.

After thinking for a moment, the eldest prince asked, "What if you lead troops to forcibly suppress it?"

This is the eldest prince's helpless move. Only in this way, see if you can obtain the relevant military power, transfer the troops back here, help defend the city, and return to attack on the way.

"No, Your Majesty, on the one hand, we can't spare the extra troops to suppress it now, and on the other hand, even if we forcibly collect the military power, the people are not convinced, how can we talk about fighting?"

"When we went to Zhao'an, people said that you were.... Yes..."

At this time, the man who was standing just now was talking at once!

"What is it? what are you talking about?" the eldest prince glanced helplessly, and he didn't have to guess what it was!

"It's... The subordinates did not dare to say. At this time, the man was already sweating, and beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down his cheeks.

"Say... Forgive you for your innocence!" At this time, the eldest prince waved his hand, indicating that it was okay to speak directly, and there would be no punishment.

"Say... Say Your Majesty, you are... It's a lost dog, and sooner or later it will be destroyed, so..."

At this time, such a man finally mustered up the courage and buzzed back.

"Click..."

As the man's words fell, the originally quiet living room suddenly heard a clicking sound.

Then everyone looked at the eldest prince, but when they saw the eldest prince's hand, everyone's hearts trembled, because the originally good handrails had been invisibly pinched off by the eldest prince at this time!

And the half-section of the armrest was tightly held in the hand of the eldest prince at this time, and the hand that was originally as white as jade was already red at this time, which shows how big the eldest prince's heart is at this time.

This made the already tense meeting even more tense.

After relieving a cup of tea, the eldest prince gradually walked out of his anger, and then opened his hand and threw the handrail on the ground, took a deep breath, and looked at the people below:

"I don't know what else you have to offer? As far as the current situation is concerned, it may be a problem for us to hold on, because we have no backstage, no backup, and the other party has, after a long time, it will definitely be us who will fall in the end. ”

The eldest prince's question was directly rooted in the psychology of everyone sitting here. Because it's very simple, if someone is damaged in battle, as long as they report it, there will definitely be some supplements, but it is difficult on their own side.

It can be said that there is one less to fight, not to mention the question of what to supply, in terms of the number of soldiers, as time goes by, there will definitely be fewer and fewer fights, if you don't find a plan to break the enemy, the last person to die will definitely be on your own side.

The silence continued, the eldest prince picked up the teacup, gently scraped the tea leaves with the tea lid, and tasted it slowly, not looking at any hurry.

When the eldest prince put down the teacup in his hand, he was directly ready to get up and leave, not wanting to waste more time here.

It's just that as soon as he got up, a young man with a pointed head and a sharp head said, "Your Majesty stays, your subordinates have a plan, as long as it is implemented, it will definitely be able to break the siege of the city, not to mention, it is possible to subdue the imperial capital." ”

"Oh... What is Aiqing's plan, report it quickly. The eldest prince, who had already gotten up, heard this man and sat down again.

The man stepped forward, touched his beard, which was already small, and said lightly: "The current situation is that the dynasty is divided into three parts, Your Majesty is in the north, the Yongli traitor is in the middle, and the Yongde traitor is in the south. ”

"Is it difficult for me to dare to ask the eldest prince, who is most afraid now?"

"Hmm..."

After pondering for a moment, the eldest prince spoke again: "It should be that Yongli, this traitor, is the most afraid!"

"Your Majesty is wise, yes, what I am most afraid of at the moment is the traitor Yongli, as for why you are afraid, the reason is very simple, I am worried that Your Majesty and Yongde will join hands with that traitor to attack him. ”

"That's why Wynn's traitor hurriedly let a brainless man lead the First Legion to attack us before he could gain a firm foothold. That's what our opportunity is. ”

"Since the Yongli traitor is not afraid that we will unite, then why don't you send someone to negotiate with that Yongde traitor, and attack it together, as long as that traitor attacks it, then our predicament will definitely be solved. ”

"This is the division of the rule, and the union of the division. ”

The young man boasted about his full stomach in one breath, then smiled and sat down.

As the man's words fell, the originally quiet hall suddenly became lively, and they discussed the feasibility of this matter with each other.

So much so that the eldest prince also fell into deep thought, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

After a long silence, the eldest prince suddenly asked, "What about the chips, what chips do we use to convince that traitor Yongde?" The eldest prince was not carried away by the excuse of relieving the predicament.

"Your Majesty, you don't need a bargaining chip, because compared to that traitor at Wynn, you are no threat, because you have few soldiers and generals, and you have no foundation, and Wynn is a traitor. ”

"They have most of the troops of the original dynasty, and they have control of the military headquarters, and they can continue to mobilize the city guards to come to the imperial capital at any time. And that Yongde traitor alone can't be attacked. ”

"So this is a bargaining chip, compared to fighting alone, I believe that as long as the brain is not bad, and you know the benefits of the north and south, then the traitor of Wynn will have to take care of both the north and the south. ”

"At that time, the success of the attack will be greatly increased, and I believe that the Yongde traitors know this better than anyone else. ”

Hearing this, the eldest prince once again fell into deep thought.
