More and more peasant soldiers climbed the city tower, and one by one the Liao soldiers who fled to the city tower for meritorious service chased after them, and then followed the city ladder towards the city bottom.

"It's finished." After using the clairvoyant mirror to see everything that happened on the city tower clearly, Commander Mu Huan couldn't help waving his arm excitedly, and then issued a military order - the whole army attacked.

Tens of thousands of peasants and soldiers, nearly 10,000 regular troops, rode war horses to the south of Anzhou City, and the earth also launched a trembling movement because of the galloping of tens of thousands of war horses.

In Anzhou City, after feeling the sound of the earth shaking, Xiao Yuan and Yi Yangxian walked out of the courtyard together, and at the same time sent people to investigate.

Soon, the news came that the dragon army had actually climbed the south city tower, and had already entered the outer city, I am afraid that soon, the south city gate will be opened from the outside, so that it is only a matter of time before the dragon army enters the city.

"It's impossible." Yi Yangxian, the head of the Yi family, had an unbelievable look on his face.

Obviously, he had already arranged for Yi Baiqing to take tens of thousands of Liao soldiers to guard the city tower, with such a force, even if the Dragon Army launched an attack, he would not want to capture it in ten days and a half months, not to mention how long it would take from the beginning to the end of the battle, just an hour.

"Waste, look at who you're sending." It was Xiao Yuan, who said angrily.

He didn't know about the first generation of dragon bullets, and he didn't want to know now, what he thought was that the people sent by the Yi clan were not effective, so he just lost the battle.

"General, what do we do now?" Yi Yangxian is not in a hurry to argue, if he loses, he loses, and now there is no point in arguing about this.

"What else can I do? Anzhou City can't be defended, but fortunately, the Dragon Army has only captured the outer city, and it will take time to enter the inner city, what we have to do is to take advantage of this time to withdraw and retreat to Tongzhou." Xiao Yuan sighed.

This battle is really a nest, and it seems that it is fleeing from beginning to end.

"This... Okay." Yi Yangxian was a little reluctant, how could he say that Anzhou City was also their Yi clan's territory, so it was a pity to abandon it like this.

But what he knows better is that if he continues to stay, he is afraid that his life will be difficult to protect.

Once a person loses his life, the so-called power will disappear all along with it.

The two men who were greedy for life and afraid of death quickly came to an agreement, took some gold and silver with them, and turned and fled. When you leave, you don't forget that a fire burned down the granaries in the city.

According to their meaning, even if they go, they can't be cheaper than Long Jun.

The city can be given to you, and the people in the city can also be left to you, but even if you don't give you a grain of food, you have to see if the people in the city will be in chaos after they run out of food, and at that time, how will your dragon army deal with this matter.

If the people went to grab the military rations of the Dragon Army in order to survive, it would be even better.

Xiao Yuan and Yi Yangxian fled, and when the dragon army had just entered the inner city, they escaped from the north gate.

Mu Huan entered the city with the first division of the People's Army, and the first thing was to put out the fire, and then to calm the people's hearts and restore order in the city, which made them have no time and energy to chase the enemy, and could only watch the back of the Liao army running.

"Your Majesty has an order, the reinforcements from the Liao State are coming, what we have to do now is to hold Anzhou City, use it as a base for defense, and wait for Your Majesty's arrival." Hearing Su Shi's voice from the headset, Mu Huan gave orders to Hu Yanqing and Wang Cai and other senior officers.

"Division, there is no problem in fighting the fire, but seeing that the fire is so big, I am afraid that the food that can be rescued will be limited." Hu Yanqing looked at the monstrous fire in front of him, and when he could feel the scorching sensation from a distance, he had the heart to remind.

"Call all the people of the city, and let them put out the fire, and tell them that they will give them as much food as they can rob. If this is not enough, give them a portion of the rations we have brought. We just have to wait until His Majesty arrives, and the problem can be solved."

Mu Huan said confidently. In the eyes of these high-ranking generals, they

His Majesty has another name, and that is the greatest magician.

As long as their Majesty is here, all problems will no longer be problems, including food.

At the same time, today, the Liao State went to the palace of the capital, and Yelu Hongji, the prince of the prison state, was presiding over the government of the government.

Due to the backwardness of information, the Liao courtiers here did not know that Anzhou City had been lost and Xiao Yuan and the Yi clan had been defeated. What they knew was that Su Shi had moved in advance, and Shanhe City, Liaozhou, Yinzhou and Huibu in Suizhou were attacked by the Dragon Army respectively.

Obviously, it was a one-month deadline to negotiate, and at that time, the Liao State was giving a reply, but he didn't expect that he would do it in the twentieth day, so that the Liao State started a full-scale war with the Dragon Army without preparation.

At this time, as long as people are not stupid and not have broken brains, they already know that the previous negotiations were smoke bombs released by Su Shi, just to make Liao unable to be fully prepared.

Thinking that the Dragon Empire was so despicable, Yelu Hongji was angry.

Now he is in prison, his father's health is extremely bad, and I heard the imperial doctor say that even if he is cured, he can't be too overworked, that is to say, in the future, he will have the final say in Liao.

After being the crown prince for so many years, he finally waited for this day, but what he was waiting for was the large-scale attack of the Dragon Empire, and what he was waiting for was the first defeat of the Liao State, it was impossible to say that Yelu Hongji was not angry.

In this way, at the beginning of the court meeting, Yelu Hongji was furious as the crown prince and the prison state, first saying that Su Shi was not trustworthy, and then scolded the envoy Wen Xing for being a waste, and was sold to pay back to the number of people, but in the end, these two people were not in front of them, and it was useless to scold, unconsciously, Yelu Hongji's spearhead changed direction and began to aim at these important ministers standing on the courtiers.

"It's all you, a group of misers with no foresight, if it weren't for you who wanted to sell grain at a high price, how could there be a food shortage in our Daliao, and how could there be the current chaos?"

Yelu Hongji, who became more and more angry, finally named him directly, "Yelu Angkor, Xiao Hui, after today's court meeting, you have to go back and take the lead in releasing grain, at least one third of the grain in your hands first, so as to level the price of grain, alleviate the food shortage, and reassure the people." The other courtiers must also do a good job of releasing grain within three days, and the prince will send someone to check when he returns, and if he finds anyone who has not done this, then he will be sorry.

Yelu Hongji deliberately named these two people, and there was a reason for saying it.

Yelu Angkor didn't say it, he offended Su Shi because of Lu Siqiao's matter, and he asked to send this person over during the previous negotiations.

is just a Four Emperor Uncle, who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures, Yelu Hongji has long looked at him unpleasantly.

Xiao Hui, a figure of the older generation, a guy with low eyes, once his father gave him a heavy task, asking him to lead 200,000 troops to clean up the Mongolian people, but the result was a failure, such an incompetent person is also unpleasant to Yelu Hongji.

But there is another reason why he was named, Xiao Hui made a lot of money selling burning knives before, which made him a little red-eyed, and this time he wanted to take the opportunity to clean him up.

These two people are just representatives of the older generation.

Yelu Hongji is about to succeed to the throne, that is, when a new generation replaces the old, and it is just a precursor to take these two people first.

Yelu Hongji was angry and named him, and all the ministers were silent and silent, as if they were afraid that a voice would attract attention, and then they themselves were taken care of. But whether they speak out or not, if Yelu Hongji mentions the matter of selling one-third of the grain after five days, it is tantamount to having no room for turning around.

Whether you accept it or not, the final result is to be executed, otherwise the big sword raised by Yelu Hongji will not recognize people.

The Great Dynasty Meeting ended in fear among everyone, and this was because Yelu Hongji didn't know the news that Xiao Yuan had been defeated, otherwise, this time he was afraid that he would stretch out his big hand to attack the military power.

Xiao Hui Mansion.

From the palace

Xiao Hui, who came back, came to the study with an angry face, and he hated Yelu Hongji for not giving face.

I think when he was a child, he hugged each other, but now, the other party has grown up and his wings are stiff, and he wants to attack his elder, and he is still so ruthless.

If he endured it this time, it was really hard to imagine what he would do next, would he order himself to take out all the grain next time to spread the price of food?

The so-called cutting off people's money is like killing their parents.

In addition, Xiao Hui himself loves money like life, how can he bear this kind of suffering.

"Steward Huang, you go, immediately go and contact the envoys of the Dragon Empire and tell them that I want to see them, immediately."

The angry Xiao Hui had already made a decision in his heart.

Originally, he was attracted by Zhang Ao's monopoly on burning knives and Rencha, but he was not a risk-taking person in his bones, so he didn't make up his mind for a long time.

But now, even if Yelu Hongji is going to attack him first, then if you are unkind, you will not blame me for being unjust.

After the housekeeper Huang Youxing got the order, he immediately left the house, first found the staff member Mr. Mei Yangmei, and soon Zhang Ao came to Xiao Hui's mansion again, calculating the time, it was not even eight hours since the last time the two met.

At Xiao Hui's request, Zhang Ao wrote a document on the spot and signed it, promising that once Yelu Hongji was overthrown, he would give the other party the monopoly of burning knives and Rencha in Liao.

Carefully putting away this document, Xiao Hui ordered Steward Huang to prepare a sedan chair, and he wanted to go to King Qin's mansion as a lobbyist in person.
