"Big brother!"

When Zhu Gaochi looked at the frozen water on the ground and pondered, a team of Yan troops defending the city with blood on almost everyone rushed over, and it was Zhu Gaoxi who was the leader, he returned from the bloody battle in Andingmen, and when he heard that something had happened to Zhangyemen, he couldn't even rest for a moment, and took his corporal to fight on the city wall to support Zhangyemen, seeing the obese Zhu Gaochi sitting on the ground in a daze, he thought he was injured something, and shouted in shock.

No matter how unpleasant this fat big brother is on weekdays, after all, he is still a family, and he also sees how much effort this big brother has made to defend the city these days, Beiping can survive so many days, and their generals fought bloodily is certainly one of the reasons, but this big brother who came to the front line to command, as well as the master Daoyan who gave advice and was transferred in the middle of the political envoy department, all contributed a lot.

"Second brother!"

Zhu Gaochi came back to his senses and shouted: "The mother concubine has already led people to Zhangyemen, you go to help!" ”

"I see!" Zhu Gaoxi shrugged his eyebrows, he was already the king of Xiao Yan, and his ability also fell on the battlefield, at this time, he was full of murderous energy, but there was a trace of sadness: "Big brother, you go into the inner city quickly!" Once the outer city is not protected, the only way to defend the inner city is to die! ”

"No! The inner city will not be defended for a long time, you must drive the southern army out of Zhangye Gate! Zhu Gaochi struggled to get up and grabbed Zhu Gaoxi's sleeve: "It doesn't matter if the city gate is gone!" I have a way, as long as I can take back the gates, I will be able to defend them! ”

Zhu Gaoxi glanced at him in surprise, but now is not the time to ask, he knows that although this eldest brother is a useless waste when he starts a fight, he has always had a calm temperament, if he is not sure, it is impossible to say such big words, and he paused at the moment: "Okay!" I'm fighting to the death, and I'm going to drive those miscellaneous pieces out, big brother just do it! ”

After that, he drew his sword out of its sheath and went down the tower like a gust of wind in a murderous manner.

And at this time under the Zhangye Gate, Princess Yan has personally led the dead soldiers and the southern army to fight together, this usually gentle and virtuous princess has really become a tigress at the moment, dancing with two knives in front of the slaughter, in the city gate cave with a woman's body brave, behind the soldiers inspired by her, one by one is also fighting bravely, even those soldiers who have been dispersed have gathered back, desperately resisting, the front formed by the swarming southern army has retreated several zhang one after another, the main general of the southern army saw that the remaining strength of the Yan army has been exhausted, just ordered his corporal to launch a counter-charge, The god-like Zhu Gaoxi has arrived again, he is already burly and martial arts, and even his eyes have become blood-red after a few days of bloody fighting.

Under the leadership of Princess Yan and Zhu Gaoxi, the half-soldier and half-civilian garrison team in the Zhangye Gate really drove out all the southern troops who poured in.

It's a miracle.

Before they had time to take a few breaths, they heard someone shouting loudly on the city wall, and Princess Yan looked at it and saw that it was the prince Zhu Gaochi, who waved his hand: "Stand back!" Back off! ”

Waiting for the city guard Yan army to retreat into the city gate hole, only to see the city wall pouring down some unknown things like a heavy rain, for a while the mist was filled, the southern army outside the city thought it was gold juice hot oil and other things, and hurriedly retreated only to find that it was boiling water, the water splashed on the ground for a while the heat boiled, and a burst of fog flourished, coupled with the flying snowflakes, the city gate hole near the sight was not visible for a while.

Immediately after that, a bundle of firewood was thrown on the city wall, and then hot water was dumped, and at the same time, arrows were shot down like money, so that the southern army could not advance an inch, and so on, the southern army outside the city gate retreated to a safe distance, looked at the broken city gate, and looked at each other for a while.

What exactly does Yan Jun plan to do?

……

The big tent of the Chinese army of the southern army is located in Zhengcunba, which is about ten miles away from Beiping, since the last night attack of the Yan army, Li Jinglong has been here to remotely command the siege, according to his idea, anyway, 500,000 troops can gnaw down Beiping, why should he personally go into battle to boost morale? In the event that the boss dies unexpectedly, it will greatly boost the morale of the Yan army, and it will be even more persistent.

Far away, the sound of fighting is naturally much quieter, and sleep better, the siege has been more than five days, and the casualties of the southern army are still within an acceptable range, this Li Jinglong is mentally prepared, naturally he will not panic, Beiping is well prepared, these lives are used to consume those city defense equipment, and when the Yan army runs out of hot oil, arrows and gold juice, and the new weapons that will explode when they are put into the military formation, what will they use to defend the city?

To be honest, that thing did scare Li Jinglong and all the Southern Army at first, a few years ago, I heard that there were some strange Fanbang people in Nanyang, and the ship was loaded with some strange things that could release mines on sunny days, but this thing in front of me was different from that, it was something similar to a trebuchet, and it would not be blown up again, this thing was not harmful when smashed down, but it could explode one after another flesh and blood flowers in the military formation.

Fortunately, it can't affect the overall situation after all, if it's a field battle outside the city, this thing does have those generals who are really determined to fight and flee in the wilderness as terrifying as they say, but if it's defending the city, it won't have such a big effect, after all, this thing doesn't distinguish between people, and the number of yesterday and today is obviously a lot less, and it is estimated that there is not much inventory... Li Jinglong thought so.

Just thinking about it, a soldier immediately came in to report the military situation, Li Jinglong heard that the Zhangye gate was broken, and at this moment there was a bloody battle at the city gate, he couldn't help but be ecstatic, the weather was getting colder and colder, and it was snowing, even if he strictly ordered the south to transport supplies and winter clothes, the efficiency of the supply line was too long after all, and the army was now short of food and clothing, and the army did not even popularize winter clothes to protect against the cold, and many soldiers had already given birth to chilblains, and the morale of the army was greatly reduced.

Although the Yan army desperately defended the city, it was nothing compared to the enemy of the harsh winter, and Li Jinglong really did not expect that before the city defense equipment of Beiping City was used up, the city gate was really breached, which shows that the defenders in the city are getting fewer and fewer, and they are no longer able to protect the whole city.

He suppressed his joy, strode out of the camp tent and turned over his horse, and immediately ordered to gather the idle soldiers and horses who rotated to attack the city, and followed him to reinforce, and as soon as the military order was given, the entire camp immediately became noisy, and there were soldiers everywhere trembling out of the camp tent to pick up weapons, and with Li Jinglong's handsome banner, they killed Beiping City, which was ten miles away.

At the same time, the military order for all the generals to lead the army to storm the whole city was also spread, Li Jinglong just wanted to make the defenders in the city anxious and unable to reinforce Zhangyemen, only in this way will this flaw be infinitely magnified and become the last straw that crushed the Yan army!

As long as the outer city is captured, the fall of Beiping is just around the corner!

It took more than half an hour for Li Jinglong to drive those soldiers out of the tent, but the cold wind was howling, and they were all so frozen that their hands and feet were stiff, and they could barely hold the spear in their hands, so they could only be sandwiched under their armpits.

When they arrived at the city of Beiping, they found that almost all the Yan troops in the city were doing the same strange action, that is, pouring hot water on the city wall, and some places without ladders were not spared.

"What? Can't get in? ”

Li Jinglong was furious: "Didn't you say that the city gate was broken? How many defenders are there in the city? Ben Shuai also let the other doors storm to relieve you of pressure, you can't attack it? ”

Liu Xing shouted wronged: "General, it's really not despicable and incompetent!" The city gates... It's frozen! ”

"Ridiculous!" Li Jinglong almost waved his whip over, "Nonsense! How can the huge city gate be frozen? ”

After scolding Liu Xing, Li Jinglong turned his horse to Zhangye Gate, followed by a large army of Hulala, but when he really arrived outside Zhangye Gate, everyone was silent, even Li Jinglong lowered the horse whip in his hand, opened his mouth wide and looked dazed.

The city gate hole is already full of firewood at the moment, the city wall is still pouring hot water, in the mist, an ice wall rises from the ground, almost blocking the entire city gate hole, let alone entering the door, there is not even a gap that can pass people.

He stammered, "How... How so? Isn't this pouring hot water? ”

It turned out that Zhu Gaochi had heard Zhu Di talk about things on the grassland when he was a child, and Zhu Di did not have the current majesty at that time, and it was not so difficult to get close to, he mentioned that the grassland tribes in the far north were surrounded by straw bales in order to avoid the wind, and then poured hot water to freeze into a wall, and the herdsmen hid behind the ice wall in winter, and when the spring flowers bloomed and the tribe migrated, the ice wall would automatically collapse.

And he just stepped on the frozen stagnant water and fell, then he thought of this story, at that time the city gate was broken, and he could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, although he also couldn't understand why hot water would freeze faster than cold water, but he didn't expect this method to really work, a Zhangye Gate became a solid ice wall, no matter what you rushed to the car and beat the wood, you can't hit it, even the method of burning is useless.

And this method is still being promoted throughout the city, and there is a rare scene at the city gate that has not yet been breached--the southern army outside the city gate is hitting the door with human life, but the city gate is frantically boiling water, pouring on the city gate layer by layer, time goes by, the southern army outside the city is puzzled to find that the city gate not only can not be opened, but the sound is getting more and more dull, not like hitting the door, but like hitting the mountain.

And the soldiers on the city wall were not idle, the hot water poured down the city wall, the cold wind blew and froze, the ladder slid up, and the southern army that climbed to the city wall did not have time to be happy, and found that there was not even a place to help, and it slipped when it was touched, and could only watch the Yan army on the opposite side wave a spear and stab over.

Li Jinglong, who looked at Zhangye Gate for a long time, had a dry mouth, he sat on the horse and looked around, his face became more and more pale, don't think about it, as long as the weather is still the way it is today, when you come to see it tomorrow, the whole of Beiping will become a... Ice City.

Li Jinglong's eyes suddenly darkened.
