Chapter 696: Siege of Jidu
readx;? Jidu, the first capital in the world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Since the ancient flood period, it has stood on the vast land of Juntian, and has become the capital of Ji, the center of the entire Juntian, and it is well-deserved to be the capital of Ji.
This ancient capital is the first capital established by the human race on the land of Juntian, the human race from this giant capital as the center, and gradually explore in all directions, and other capital towns in Juntian have appeared one after another, so Jidu is regarded as the ancestral capital by all the human races, as the birthplace of the human race.
In the past, the capital of Ji was called Zhongdu, since the collapse of the ancient dynasty, Juntian was divided into nine, and the capital was renamed Jidu by the Jizhou Dynasty, so the past capital is today's Jidu, in fact, the names of Jidu or Zhongdu are no longer important, the important thing is that this ancient capital has witnessed the glory and decline of several eras, and has survived until now.
Now Jidu is about to witness another major event that may determine Juntian's future fate.
The Yangzhou army has already surrounded the capital of Ji, and will launch a general attack on the capital in the near future.
Of course, this is also a little inaccurate, because the Yangzhou army did not actually surround the entire Hebei capital, the Yangzhou army surrounded only the southeast two sides of the Hebei capital, but the northwest side of the Hebei capital was not surrounded by the Yangzhou army, obviously the Yangzhou army did not want to fall into the four-way battle, the dilemma of the enemy, after all, in the northwest of the Hebei capital, there were several other important towns and several guards in the capital did not fall into the hands of the Yangzhou army.
Therefore, if the Yangzhou army tried to encircle the Jidu from the northwest, they would have to prepare for the attack of the armies of several large towns coming from the rear, as well as the armies of the other two giant capitals in the north and west of the Jidu and the several large towns near the Jidu around the two giant capitals.
If the Yangzhou army was wise, they would not have chosen to fight the four giant capitals around the Jidu at the same time, including the Jidu capital, and it is true, the Yangzhou army only surrounded the southeast and southeast sides of the Jidu, leaving the northwest side unencircled.
As long as the capital of Ji is taken, even if all the defenders in the capital of Ji, including the core of the Jizhou Dynasty, will not care too much about it if all the defenders in the capital of Ji, including the core of the Jizhou Dynasty, retreat smoothly from the northwest side, because the significance of taking the Jidu is far greater than the destruction of the Jizhou Dynasty.
As the royal capital of Jizhou, if the Yangzhou army conquers the Jizhou capital, then this means that the Jizhou Dynasty will also fall, and even if the rest of the Jizhou Dynasty people flee, it will not have much impact on this result, because sooner or later the Yangzhou army will wipe out the remaining other capitals of the Jizhou Dynasty one by one.
But if the Yangzhou army could not take the capital of Ji, then the result would be completely different, and the Cizhou Dynasty is a living example of this.
The entire sub-state dynasty has nine giant capitals and eighty-one big towns, except for the royal capital and the second capital, all the other capital towns have fallen, but as long as the sub-state is still defending and is still in the hands of the sub-state dynasty, then the sub-state dynasty will not be completely destroyed, the royal capital is the symbol of the one-state dynasty, if the royal capital is lost, then this state dynasty will also perish in the hearts of the world.
The city wall of Jidu is slightly different from the city wall of other capital towns of Juntian, although it is also tall and wide, but in the four corners of the city wall of Jidu, there are four more corner towers that are built by the bluestone of the city, these four corner towers are huge and boundless, like a palace standing on the four corners of the city wall of Jidu, it is very magnificent and magnificent.
At this moment, on the highest floor of the corner tower on the southeast corner of the Jidu city wall, Mu Yi was looking out from the railing, looking beyond the Jidu city wall.
I saw that at the end of the distant sky, a black oppressive shadow was like a dark cloud surging from the sky, and it was difficult to see the end at a glance, and the black shadow spread towards the north and the west on the other, which was the camp of the Yangzhou army besieging Jidu.
Looking at the slightly familiar scene in front of him, smelling a faint smell of nail polish in his nose, Mu Yi inexplicably thought of the time he spent in Fengdu.
It adds up to more than six years, the first five years Mu Yi has never left the battlefield since he joined the Fengdu army, and he carried out various orders handed down from above every day, but by chance he left Fengdu and went to his sister capital, and then inexplicably entered Nanshan Academy, and finally came to Jidu to enter the Elite Palace.
It was also from that time that Mu Yi began to gradually stay away from the battlefield, although he returned to Fengdu intermittently to fight with the Chengdu army several times, but in the end he slowly retreated from the battlefield, especially after the two states shook hands and made peace, and the complete truce between Fengcheng and the two capitals, he never returned to the Fengdu battlefield.
Although I will occasionally recall the unforgettable years when I joined the army in Fengdu later, the past has passed after all, and looking back, there are only complicated feelings that are difficult to understand.
This time he went up to the top of the city wall of Jidu and looked at the Yangzhou army camped outside the city, Mu Yi couldn't help but think of the years he spent on the battlefield of Fengdu, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He had already experienced too much killing and blood on the battlefield of Fengdu, he no longer needed this, he was just a young man, an ignorant boy who had just walked out of the Jedi Rift Valley and came to the Nine Heavens and didn't know anything, and then inexplicably joined the Fengdu army and went up to the cruel battlefield.
It is undeniable that Mu Yi will never forget those years for the rest of his life, but since he left Fengdu and stepped into a higher martial arts world, the things on the battlefield have been difficult to attract him, and now his goal is only to cultivate, just to climb the path to the peak of martial arts, and impact the unenterable realm.
Occasionally, Mu Yi turned his head sideways, and suddenly found a familiar figure standing on the city wall on the east side of the corner tower, the figure stood quietly above the city, and he also looked at the endless distance outside the capital of Ji, and a leisurely color flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
With a move in his heart, Mu Yi walked down the corner tower and walked along the edge of the city wall towards the figure.
The city wall of Juntiandu Town is tall, so the wind is often howling above the city wall, there are few calm moments, today is no exception, the sky is blue, the cold wind on the city wall does not stop blowing, and the dragon flag inserted in the city wall is swept up by the wind to make the sound of hunting.
Since the army of Yangzhou was encamped outside the city of Jidu, the defenders of Jidu have been on alert all the time, and they have been paying attention to the movements of the army of Yangzhou day and night.
At the edge of the city wall, every five steps, a soldier with a gun would stand facing the outside of the city, and he would be ready to fight at any time, so although Mu Yi walked behind these soldiers, these soldiers didn't seem to be aware of it, and they wouldn't look back at him at all.
It wasn't until he walked behind the figure that Mu Yi stopped.
"Congratulations on the wedding"
The figure didn't look back, still looking out of the city.
