The news that Bazhou Quanzhou was included under the rule of King Shen Yan soon spread to the capital division, and at this moment, in the palace hall, the crown prince Xia Chengqi was lying on the dragon chair and falling asleep. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the past three years, from excitement to anger, from anger to helplessness, I thought that I would have the opportunity to take charge of Great Xia, but I never thought that he would be reduced to the fate of a puppet.

After the war between Great Xia and the Baori Empire ended, it stands to reason that the Great Xia Kingdom would be allowed to recuperate, but Zuotian's mind was to seek the foundation of Great Xia, so in the past three years, he has vigorously expanded the army and trained his troops.

But it takes money to raise soldiers, so all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes emerge in Great Xia, and the life of the common people is miserable.

After the large-scale expansion of the army, Zuo Tian placed a large number of troops in Tongzhou, Tianping Mansion, and Hezhou, and the garrisons of the three places have reached as many as 600,000.

However, because of Xia Yuan, Zuo Tian has been forbearance for the past three years, and to put it bluntly, Zuo Tian is also waiting for an opportunity, either Xia Yuan is dead, or King Shen Yan is the first to attack.

And now that the opportunity has come, King Shen Yama took the lead in blowing the horn of war, and he also happened to take this opportunity to conquer King Shen Yama.

Of course, in Zuotian's mind, it doesn't matter whether there is a civil war in Great Xia or not, the important thing is the war between Emperor Xia Yuan and the crown prince Xia Chengqi, the initiative is in the hands of Xia Yuan, and now King Shen Yan, who represents Xia Yuan, has blown the horn of battle, so he who represents the prince naturally has to face the battle.

And no matter how long it takes, for Zuo Tian, it will consume the fame of the royal family, and it is himself who will profit in the end, and when the time comes, he will take the opportunity to kill Xia Yuan and King Shen Yan, let the prince die, and his opportunity will come.

As for whether the war will be won, Zuo Tian is not worried, as long as he gives an order, he can gather another 300,000 people in a short time, and it will not take many days, and the strength of Tongzhou Hezhou Tianping Mansion can reach 900,000 people.

900,000 people against the 200,000 troops of King Shen Yan, no matter what Zuo Tian thought, felt that there was no possibility of defeat.

Even if King Shen Yan had that weapon called a gun, Zuo Tian still didn't take it too seriously, because in addition to the strength of the five states of Zhanbu, the number of troops he could use reached 1.2 million, and it was not a problem to recruit hundreds of thousands more.

The army of 1.2 million crushed the four states today, how could it be defeated.

However, how did Zuo Tian know that in order to recruit soldiers, collect donations, and strengthen his own strength, he had missed too much in the past three years.

If the attack had been launched three years ago, 500,000 people would have been enough to destroy King Shen Yan, and there would have been hope even two years ago.

But now, he is destined to be disappointed, and Zuo Tian, who missed the opportunity, just to stand at the highest point of morality, has ignored Shen Mufeng's development in the past three years.

Some people may say that it is completely unnecessary, and it is possible to push the matter on the prince, but don't forget, this is a world that is extremely interested in etiquette, even if it is pushed to the prince, but Zuotian is an auxiliary minister, and it is inevitable that he will leave a tongue.

More importantly, what he wants to do is to seize the foundation of the Xia family, if it is really pushed on the crown prince, he, the auxiliary minister, is also destined to be discredited.

This is also why, Zuo Tian has to send people to assassinate Xia Yuan again and again, and only when Xia Yuan is dead can the prince justifiably crusade against King Shen Yan.

In less than ten days, 900,000 troops were assembled, and Tongzhou, Hezhou, and Tianpingfu each led 300,000 troops to Pinglan, Quanzhou, and Bazhou.

In the middle of September, the weather was already a little cold, and there were as many as twenty cannons every twenty meters in the city.

When Zuo Tian dispatched his troops, Shen Mufeng had already gotten the news.

At the same time, he was shocked by Zuotian's big reaction, and at the same time, he immediately ordered the military factory to speed up the production of cannons, and in the past ten days, forty cannons were built, and twenty cannons were arranged in Bazhou, Pinglan.

However, at this moment, when looking at the dusty, dense crowd of people who don't know geometry, Shen Mufeng was also taken aback, many, too many, the black pressure is all people, and I felt that there were twenty cannons in there, and there was a lot of confidence, and now, Shen Mufeng couldn't help but feel a little weak.

"Commander, the enemy army is less than five miles away!"

A quarter of an hour later: "Commander, the enemy is less than two miles!"

Shen Mufeng rolled his eyes and looked at Xiao Mulei: "I'm not blind, what are you nervous about?"

Xiao Mulei scratched his head in embarrassment, but his pale face still showed his mood at the moment.

"Listen to my orders, I say that the cannon is firing!"

Xiao Mulei nodded, and passed on the words, and the sappers were usually well-trained, although their faces were pale, but no one retreated.

When the army had already rushed into less than four hundred meters, Shen Mu Storm shouted and gave the order to open fire!

Under the wave of the flag, twenty cannons shook the four fields, and the cannonballs flew out in an instant, drawing a parabola in the air and shooting into the sea of people below, and the sea of people below was suddenly cleared out of twenty blood lines, each of which was more than ten meters long.

Each shell takes dozens of lives, and those hit by the shells are instantly bloody and miserable.

However, there were too many people, and a round of shells could have little effect, and to Shen Mufeng's surprise, those people below continued to rush forward as if they didn't want to die.

The two wings carried the ladder, and in the middle of the city gate, there were several large carts arranged vertically, and on the carts were huge tree trunks, and the dense crowds of people pushed the carts forward, as if there were mountains of gold and silver in front of them.

In fact, it is true that no matter in any country in this world, the siege of the city will almost be promised heavily, for example, the first to attack the city, it will be rewarded with gold, and it will also be promised high-ranking officials, after all, the siege is to play with life, and the mortality rate is far greater than that of the confrontation on the battlefield.

And this time the siege lord is named Jiang Yunlang, who was originally a member of the guard general of Zhanbu Wuzhou, who was less than thirty-five years old and had great achievements, but Jiang Yunlang also has an identity, a disciple of Longgu Yunzi, and a junior disciple of Zuotian.

And the reason why such a powerful formation was used to attack the city was completely due to Jiang Yunlang's experience, Jiang Yunlang was the defender of a state in the five states of Zhanbu, and fought hundreds of battles with the Baori Empire.

Therefore, Jiang Yunlang understood that if he wanted to attack the city, he must either do his best, otherwise it would inevitably be a tactic of adding fuel, and the casualties would only be greater.

Of course, Jiang Yunlang knew who his opponent was, and four years ago, a man who could easily break through Wanping, which was guarded by 50,000 people, was enough to prove that King Shen Yan was by no means an ordinary person.

In the face of such an opponent, he is still the side attacking the city, Jiang Yunlang simply put on a posture and decided to strike with all his might, and victory or defeat was in one fell swoop.

Therefore, before choosing to attack the city, he made a pre-war mobilization with a lot of profits, and if he won this battle and captured King Shen Yan alive, then he would have a huge advantage in recovering the four states in the future, and he Jiang Yunlang would also be the first generation of military gods in Great Xia.

The generous bounty, coupled with the fact that being a soldier is to sell their lives, almost everyone is out of the way, and the 300,000 army is attacking the city, how can they feel that it is impossible to lose, as long as they break through the city of Quanzhou, what awaits them is to be promoted and make a fortune.

But is it really what they want to be? can they really attack the city with an army of 300,000 and destroy it? (To be continued.) )
